Soap and glory thick and fast mascara review

Hey Everyone!

Today I'm going to be telling you a little bit about soap and glorys mascara, this has been on a few people's blogs I've seen too so let's get started!

It does do what it says! It's thick and fast! Also it does give the lashes lots of volume! The only bad-ish thing I can find is that it's slightly clumpy but that's only when you apply more than one coat but one coat looks fab I think too!

Thanks for reading everyone and I'm sorry that its a short post! xoxo



How I clean and take care of my makeup brushes

Hi Everybody!

Today I'm going to be telling you how I clean and look after my brushes! I never really clean them at all but earlier on today I saw somebody's post about cleaning makeup brushes so today's my first time experimenting so I have never done this before so it's like my first try so let's get started and ill tell you what I did!

1. I started off by using my soap and glory peaches and clean cleanser and I just rubbed that into my makeup brushes, I'm not sure if your even supposed to do that but I thought it might work to get the makeup out of my brushes.

2. Then I washed the cleanser out of the brushes with warm water and rubbed antibacterial gel into them to clean out all of the germs!

3. This is a little bit of a strange one but I then combed through my brushes with my eyebrow comb! After that I just left them to dry in the airing cupboard.

Thank you for reading everybody! I also after that cleaned the container that I keep my brushes in and that is from elf (although when it arrived it had loads of like marks and things on it) but I just used CIF cream and a sponge to clean it and then I used an antibacterial wipe! xoxo

Soap and glory clean on me shower gel review

Hey Everyone!

Today I'm going to be talking about the clean on me shower gel by soap and glory! Firstly I would like to say I think it is the best shower gel I have ever used and it is my favourite!

This has body lotion built in so it is nice and moisturising on the skin! The scent is gorgeous and very girly! I think it is the original pink or something but any way it is lovely! I have had this before but my bottle I have now was from the huge Christmas gift set that my Mom kindly got me!

You can get this from boots and I the prize of it is 5.50 which actually isn't bad for 500ml of product and it is a pump bottle!

Thank you for reading everybody and I hope you enjoyed today's post! xoxo

Favourites

Hey Everyone!

Today I have a favourites post of things that I have been liking so lets get started!

1. Soap and glory peaches and clean cleanser: this is lovely, it removes my makeup really well! The only thing I don't really like is it takes quite a while to get mascara off but it is still a great product!

2. Soap and Glory sugar crush body scrub: this is amazing! This is my second tub and it smells so great! I really recommend this!

3. The body shop tea tree skin clearing lotion: this is just a little mini size but it is great so far, I haven't really used it a lot and it dosnt really clear my skin but it is good as a moisturiser! That is how I use it too!

4. The body shop tea tree face mask: now this face mask is lovely! I love it so much! When you put it on your face it is instantly cooling and it feels refreshing! Also it is dark/bright green in colour!

5. Urban Decay NYC Palette: I don't know if it is actually called this but I got it back in December, my mom got it for me so I'm not sure if it was just a gift set then but the eyeshadow colours are lovely!

6. Me Me Me beat the blues highlighter in pearl pink: I got this in this months GlossyBox and it is lovely! I have never used a proper highlighter before but this is gorgeous! I highly recommend this!

7. Natural Collection pressed powder in Neutral: this is really nice! This is my second one too but last time I had warm I think. It is just a lovely powder and I love it!

8. Dove go fresh deodorant in grapefruit and lemongrass: this is amazing! It makes me smell so fresh after I use it and If I put it on before bed the smell is still there first thing in the morning! It is also supposed to last 48 hours! I love it!

9. Soap and Glory thick and fast mascara: this is lovely! It makes my lashes stand out and I really love this!

10. Last but not least figs and rouge balm in Rambling Rose: you can use this on your body too which is really good! I have only used this on my lips but I have to say I really don't like the smell! But anyway it still works on my lips and is sort of exfoliating too! I got this in this months GlossyBox as well!

Thanks for reading everyone! xoxo
