#FaceMaskFriday: Yes To Tomatoes Detoxifying Charcoal Paper Mask

Welcome to another Face Mask Friday, and can you believe that it is the start of September, how mad is that.

I have heard of the Yes To range, and the many variations that they have (cucumber, coconut, carrots, grapefruit, blueberries, etc, etc,). The tomato range is supposed to be the best range for problem skin (which I have had for years)

ELF Lip Exfoliator (Clear)

My lips have to be the worst lips in history, they get so dry and then wearing lipstick becomes an impossibility due to the fact that it just looks like a complete mess on my lips. Anything that is going to help my lips I'm up for so when I noticed this lip scrub on the ELF stand, that was it, it was coming with me.

B. Makeup Brush Cleansing Wipes

When B.Cosmetics released the brush cleanser spray they then released the brush cleanser wipes, well I am the queen of a quick brush cleanse between washes so I grabbed these to see what they were like.

#FaceMaskFriday: Montagne Jeunesse 7th Heaven Manuka Honey Peel Off Mask 10ml

I've not tried a peel off mask (too many YouTube videos of people pulling masks like these off and losing about 10% of their skin with it).

Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Hand Gel

I've said this before when I posted about the Hand Maid sanitizer from Soap & Glory, that it is very strange to be shout my love of hand sanitiser (but it's happening). Soap & Glory released a companion for Hand Maid with Sugar Crush. Now I have to say I was over the moon about this as I love the sugar crush scent.

Palmers Tummy Butter

If you don't know I am currently pregnant, and I lost weight so I have a load of unsightly stretchmarks on my stomach, so to help reduce these I picked up the Palmer's Tummy Butter (you may have already seen a sample size in my travel toiletries bag).

#FaceMaskFriday: Boots Ingredients sheet face mask - Super Hyaluronic Acid, Moisturising & Nourishing

I have never tried a sheet mask in my life, so this was an experience, I bought some of these for my mum last Christmas and she has never tried them, so I thought I'm pregnant, one night a week I am just going to have a pamper evening, and this is the latest in my face mask tries.

Models Own HyperEyes 3-in-1 Waterproof Mascara

NARS Orgasm Blusher

If you don't know about this product you must have been living under a rock, the NARS or blusher is a cult product, and I wanted to know if it was worth the hype.

Treacle Moon Raspberry Kiss Hand Cream

While I was in my local Tesco I spotted this hand cream, now I love a good hand cream, and I love raspberry as a scent so when I saw this and for £2.00 for 75ml, I was sold.

The hand cream contains dragon fruit and almond oil, and once applied to the hands does make them feel really soft. I will warn you to be careful when squeezing this out as you can get too much product which then becomes a pain in the proverbial behind to rub into your skin.

Papaya - Barry M (Gelly Hi-Shine)

You can't beat Barry M when it comes to their shade range, and when it comes to the Gelly Hi-Shine, well enough said. So to celebrate what may just be the last little bits of sun before the dark nights set in and we all start to enter Autumn I thought I would brighten up my nails with Papaya.

Soap & Glory Orangeasm Body Spray

I love the scent range that Soap & Glory pull out and their range of body sprays are just perfect to fit into my daily handbag.

I've currently been using the Orangeasm body spray and this just reminds me of orange sherbert, it is a very sweet scent that does linger for ages after you have sprayed.

Pump It Up Dry Shower Body Wash

You can get dry shampoo and now there is a dry shower body wash, when I heard about this I was all over it, (you may have noticed I decanted some in my travel toilettries bag to freshen up after travelling).

#FaceMaskFriday: Montagnue Jeunnusse Mud Pack Anti-Stress*

I know you are all probably sick of hearing it but I can get quite hormonal (which my other half can agree with), so anything that is going to help me de-stress is always a good thing.

NYX Studio Photo -Loving Primer - Anti-Redness

The NYX primer is green for a reason (not that it is in love with The Wizard of Oz or anything), but it is to correct redness, which I do suffer from especially around my T-Zone.

On application this does feel really greasy (and being someone with combination skin this is not a good feeling), because it feels so slick it doesn't feel like it is going to hold my makeup to my face.

I wasn't really that impressed by this because of the texture of the primer when it went onto my face, the confidence just wasn't there, and I just didn't feel that it reduced the redness around my T-Zone, and for the price for this it just wasn't worth the £10 retail price.

Overall I wouldn't repurchase this again, as it just didn't work for me, you can find this at your local Boots or online HERE.

Thanks for tuning in

Garnier Ambre Solaire Sensitive Advance Protecting And Hydrating Face Mist SPF50

This has to be the only product I know that has the longest name in history.

The Body Shop Wild Argan Oil Hand Cream

I love The Body Shop and their hand creams so welcome to the Argan Oil Hand Cream.

Travel Makeup Bag

As you read this I will currently be enjoying the sunny weather in the lovely Butlins Resort in Skegness (it's a family holiday, hoepfully it is sunny).

So while I was working out what to post in my first week back after my really, really, REALLY long hiatus I thought I would show what was in my travel makeup bag.

I will forewarn you that this is a long one, so it might be best to get a snack and a cup of tea just to keep you going.

The makeup bag was a freebie from the Clarins stand when I purchased 2 items in Debenhams, so I thought this would be good for a makeup bag.

Favourites

I thought what was the best thing to blog after my very looooonnnggg hiatus, and what better thing to do then a Favourites post. Now these are from halfway through June and all of July.

Empties

Hey guys, I'm back,

What better way to come back from my long hiatus then by having an empties post, this is a mixture of both June and July, there is not much but there is enough to make a post out of.

Returning - August 2017

Hey everyone,

Long time, no speak (or blog post for that matter)
