Enrapture Hot Rollers

       I recently purchased the enrapture hot rollers. I'd never tried hot rollers myself so I was just trying to test them out, they was quite easy to put it your hair & hold. With a bit of practice I could put them in quicker.

       On the top part of my head I put about 8 of the bigger rollers. Then on the lower second section of my head I used about 6 of the smaller rollers. Then left them for an hour.

       They are so easy to take out, jut take off the clip and they unravel, easy right? I liked how with these rollers you had a constant heat through them that was even, so gives you a even heat through each roller.





       The results, well it definitely gave me such high volume on the top half of my hair!! The bottom section was a bit curler, but more wavy to be fair. Which I would have preferred a more curly look. However I think because I wasn't used to putting them in quick it resulted in the roller getting a bit too cool so wouldn't curl as much.





So has anyone else tried this item? Any techniques you could give?


Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder

[shade Translucent]


      I switched setting powders recently. I wanted to find something that just have me more of a flawless look as the one I was using I don't know it just didn't feel to give me what I wanted and I felt like it got a bit cakey looking. So I looked at a variety of different setting powders.

     I came across the Rimmel stay matte translucent powder. This powder, oh wow it makes my makeup look so flawless to the finish! I just love how it turns out on top of my L'oreal true match foundation. These two together give me the ultimate finish! I just love how I don't get that caked in makeup look which some powders tend to do.

    I've even noticed that it does seem to hold my makeup in place. I have combination skin where in my tee zones the chin area it always seems to come off, but with this powder it hasn't come off at all!! Amazing right?




This is my new go to setting powder! what are your favourites?


L'Oreal True Match Foundation

[shade W1 Warm Ivory]
         L'Oreal true match foundation. Well what can I say, this foundation I have only recently discovered. But it is now my favourite foundation!!!

        I just love that they have so many varieties of shades! Personally, I am quite fair. So I always struggle to find a foundation that matches my skin. Until I met this beauty, many foundations I tried always looked just that little too dark on my face.

       Another reason I am loving a lot of L'oreal products lately is that on L'Oreal's website they have a questionnaire to find the right shade for your skin. The questionnaire actually really works you just answer a range of questions about your skin and from your answers it tells you exactly the shade you are. It even gives you from the true match collection a blusher that would suit your skin as well. I think this is an amazing piece of technology that really helps anyone needed to find the right shade! This is how I found mine and it is the right shade for once from any foundation I've tried!

      One con I found would have to be that the Consistency of this product for me is many a bit too runny? Like I feel it will just try to come off my brush and drop off (This hasn't happened however). I just feel the product should be that little bit more thicker!

      This along with my sigma F60 brush work wonders giving you that completely blended flawless look!






Balm Lip Balm and more

      Wow what can I say about this product from balm. Firstly, it does exactly what is says on the box! The smoothness of this product ah from having slightly dry lips due to the harsh weather conditions this little beauty can fix that in an instant!

      It's not only for lips. This product is simply amazing if you have any dry areas from your face, to your hands and feet this little treasure can sort it out for you! I mainly use it on my lips and on the go in my handbag, but I have used it sometimes on my hands if they become dry. As we have such terrible weather at the moment and it still does the job!

      Not to mention the smell OMG it's so heavenly, it smells just like the rose Turkish delight to me! It smells that good I even just like to smell the product, shows how much I love the smell I guess.

Im so in love with this product, so might have to check out other products from Balm.




Anyone else tried this? Is Balm a good brand?


Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser


        I haven't done a post about this before, quite surprising seeing as I have used this product for years now. I'm sure many of you have heard so much about the wonders of this product and others from liz Earle!

       Well I have to agree with everyone who's said this is amazing because it is, just that! The freshness this product leaves on my face, I feel like I am wide awake as soon as I use this. I just love the feel it gives my skin like its let to breath.

       I used to use this to take off my makeup as well as just to cleanse my face. But for a while I have been using the Taaj Micellare makeup remover as shown in my post here...
It does take off quite a lot of your makeup! I would continue using it for that, but I just love the feel from the Taaj Micellare makeup remover too much as it leaves me face feeling just so refreshed and feels like it's as clean as it can be!

      Using Liz earles got cloth cleanser along side my clarisonic. Well these two work wonders together from that fresh, clean and smooth base to have for putting your makeup on in the morning! The hot cloth cleanser also helps remarkably with spots and other imperfections on your face. I always use this cleanser twice a day if I'm in a time were I have more spots than usual as this helps them go really quickly for me! I dont know if you would get the same results if you are more prone to spots to be honest, so I guess it may do wonders for most, but some even more.



Whats your favourite cleanser?

Clarisonic Mia Review

       For Christmas I recently got the clarisonic Mia. You might have read my post last year about the sigma cleansing and polishing tool (if you have haven't here's a link http://loutotheweeze.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/review-sigmas-cleansing-and-polishing.html)

      Anyway as I was saying I loved this tool, I used it many a times. The only problem was as I live in the UK is wasn't so easy to keep on buying the replacement heads, they would take too long to get here and even one time the airline checked my package to see what was inside so I kept getting charged. So I just thought it was all such a ker-fuffle and got the clarisonic for Christmas.

       Wow I tell you now it really does love up to its expectations! Yes the replacement heads are quite pricey from around £20 I think it is, but really I just think when it comes to your face you want it to looks its best right & feel the smoothest!

       So I am now in love with the clarisonic! I've noticed it really has diminished my pores as mine were quite large around the nose area, but instantly since using this I have noticed they are minimized dramatically. It even makes your cleanser seep right deep down into your skin making your products work that much more. Well I have noticed an improvement on how soft my face feels and an all round improvement on how it looks making it look really looked after and flawless! 

       Overall, the clarisonic helps to create the perfect smooth and flawless base for you to begin your skin care and makeup routine. I advise everyone to give it a go!






One more Beauty Advent Calender from You Beauty

         I also got this beauty advent Calender late as well. However because I did I manage to get it for a great price as the site was reducing them as Christmas had just past, good little bargain!

         This kit is just amazing, you get so many different arranges of products to try out. I'm always wanting to try new products, so having these gives me a chance to try find some holy grail's for my beauty collection. I've been trying out some of these products so I will give some reviews over time of things I'm loving and things I'm not too keen on!

Here are the items..







Beauty Advent Calender from Ciate

       I was a bit late on the bandwagon for these new crazes of beauty advent Calenders! So by the time I knew about them in mid December you couldn't get the Ciate advent for love nor money! Even when I found them on online such as eBay, the prices were ridiculous!

       So well luckily I did end up buying one, yes it cost more than it would if I bought it from the site. Like I said everywhere was sold out. So hopefully next Christmas I will be able to get my hands on any beauty advent quickly!

       So here is the product...




       I've always loved Ciate nail varnishes and these 24 little bottles are so cute! There are so many different colours and you even get some caviar miniature bottles and the filter! How great is that from Ciate?

                                                       What are your thoughts? 
                            Anyone get any other beauty advents from Christmas gone?
