Product Rave: Face Atelier Ultra Foundation, Cruelty Free Gorgeousness!


Face Atelier is my product rave of the moment! I absolutely adore this foundation. I personally prefer matte full coverage foundation, although this is not like that so i was quite surprised at how much i loved it. It has great coverage but it's not 'cakey', it feels silky and blends easily.  It can be built up for a more matte coverage.

 My shade is 'Wheat', i originally sampled 'Sand' but now winter has started to set in, this shade is much more suited to my paler skin.
 As you can see from the above photo my skin looks smoother and my completion has become much more even without looking 'caked'.
 Face Atelier is cruelty free which makes me so happy! I am so pleased that not only is it a fantastic foundation but not one animal was harmed in the making. Kudos to you FaceAtelier!! You can read up more about it on Peta.org
It comes with a designer price tag of £32 for 30ml, but a little goes a really long way. I can see this lasting me months and months. It really is worth it, for me anyway as i use it everyday.

Buy from: www.CocoBeau.co.uk

Crazy Braid/Plait Tutorial


I love this braid - it's unusually odd but gorgeously unique! 
I just blow dried my hair, clipped in my Foxy Locks Extensions and that was it, hardly any prep, so easy.
You can do this with wet or dry hair, depending on how neat you want your plait to be. To find out how it's done watch my video below :)

Beautifully Delicious!

 Above: Scrublicious Papaya and Mango
 
AMAZING....That was literally the first thing that came to mind as soon as i smelt these products. They smell delicious, i suppose that's why they are called 'Beautifully Delicious'? :)

After testing them for a couple of weeks i am in love - not only do they smell amazing but they do the job! The Scublicous exfoliator has gentle but abrasive walnut shells which removes dead skin really well, whilst papaya and mango extracts helps to leave your skin feeling smooth and moisturised.

This smells divine, i cannot describe just how strong the smell of strawberries is and it lasts for hours which is fab! I use it straight after a shower and it leaves my skin lovely and soft. It comes in a generous sized jar also.


I am so happy i have been introduced to this brand as i will without a doubt be repurchasing. They are very affordable. I highly recommend you try them out as the smell is just beyond delicious!

NOTD: Pink Punk Nails

Starting off with Punk Polish by Eyeko - this is a one coat wonder! It looks gorgeous and if you're in a rush to paint your nails then this is the perfect polish :) 

....Then i added pink glitter tips using Eyeko ChiChi polish - this gives a lovely effect although the glitter was a little 'misty'. I love how it looks - but make sure you leave plenty of time for ChiChi to dry!

Nail polishes from: www.eyeko.com - you can also use code E8249 on checkout for a free gift with every purchase :)

Hope you like!
