Hello Readers!
Since summer is quickly approaching here in the UK I decided that I wanted to have a sun kissed glow to my skin. So I decided to try Garnier's Summer Body Lotion and I was impressed.
After applying my tan on the first day there was no streaks what so ever. However I did find that it went a little bit orange, so my advice to you is put a light layer on the first application. But after I carried on applying the gradual tan it didn't go orange what so ever. Instead I was left with a streak free natural tan.
I love the apricot scent of this product as it isn't too overwhelming. This product also keeps my skin moisturised for at least 12 hours and my skin absolutely loves it!
How I apply this product:
After I have my shower in the evening and I make sure my skin is completely dry, I apply the product on all of my body (except my face) leaving my knees, hands and feet until last. I let the product sink in for 2-3 minutes and then I wash my hands thoroughly ( important-so they do not turn orange). The product then works its magic overnight whilst I'm sleeping. Then in the morning I wake up to a golden sun kissed tan, so effortless! I usually apply this tan every two days as I only want a light tan effect.
If you feel like you have put too much tan on and want a lighter tan, semi-removing the tan is easy! All you have to do is apply some body scrub and your tan will be reduced (not removed).
This tan is great value for money as a big bottle (that lasts a really long time) only costs £5.49. I brought my tan last month and I'm only half way through the bottle!
rating: 5/5
price- £5.49

Life Update: Where Have I Been?
Hello Readers!
A lot of you have been wondering why I haven't been posting recently or active on Twitter. So I thought I owed you an explanation.
When I set up this blog I knew that it would be hard to keep up with my school work whilst posting here. But I never fully realised how much work actually goes into blogging. I love blogging so much but it had started affecting my school work. I am currently sitting exams and I knew they had to come first. I realised that sitting Exams and trying to post weekly just wasn't going to happen.
No way did I want to give up blogging either so I knew that I would have to write posts in advanced or sometimes have to miss a day.
This won't last for long as my exams finish in about a month. Please don't take this as me giving up blogging, it just means that I will be posting less frequently. I hope you understand

Rimmel London Volume Colourist Mascara- Review
Hello Readers!
Since reviews are my most popular blog posts I decided to review Rimmel's new mascara. I saw this mascara advertised whilst watching TV and I thought no way that will work! But I decided to purchase it to see whether it worked to let you guys know.
I was impressed with this mascara. After just one week my lashes were a lot darker than they were before using the mascara. My lashes generally looked like I had had them professionally tinted. I was getting compliments on my lashes everyday!
I love the style of the wand that this mascara has. It is so easy to use as you can reach every individual lash. As the wand is quite long and thick it ensures that your lashes do not clump together. This mascara is also very easy to remove.
This mascara makes my lashes long and fluttery. However it doesn't add much volume. I love my lashes to be long and voluminous. To overcome this problem I used this mascara as a first coating to my lashes then as a second coat I used Maybellines Lash sensational mascara. I loved pairing these mascaras together as the Rimmel mascara gave me length and separation whilst the Maybelline mascara gave me volume and definition. To see my full review of Maybellines Lash sensational mascara click here.
When I wear this combination of mascaras I get compliments everyday. I look wide awake and my lashes look defined and voluminous.
To summarise if you are looking for a natural whist lengthening mascara this mascara is definitely for you. If you would rather have a voluminous mascara pair these two mascaras together as they are the best mascaras (together) that i've ever used.

Pamper Evening Essentials!
Hello readers!
Nothing is better after a long day to run yourself a bath and put aside a couple of hours for some you time. In this time I like to pamper myself from head to toe! I like to put aside time to pamper myself and to have a 'time out' from the rest of the world just to compose myself ready for the next week. Here are some of my favourite products to use during this time, enjoy!
1) St Ives Invigorating Body Scrub
This product has been a new addition to my pamper evenings and I can honestly say that I have fallen in love with it! This product leaves my skin feeling baby soft and leaves it with a radiant glow. this product is very affordable at only £5.49 a pot. and the pot lasts for a really long time! The smell of this product is lovely and now I can't live without it.
2) Imperial Leather 'love story' bath cream
I love this bubble bath for a relaxing soak. This product turns my bathwater into a light pink colour which I love (who doesn't love pink bath water!). This product has an amazing smell which helps me to relax. After I get out of the bath my skin is so smooth and hydrated. This product is great value for money as it only costs £1.99!
3) Sanctuary Spa 'cleansing burst' body wash
This body wash smells amazing. I wish this fragrance could be everywhere! Only a small amount of product is needed to get the job done. This again leaves my skin feeling baby soft and smooth. This product is good value for money at only £5.50 each.
4) montagne jeunesse 'Red Strawberry souffle' face mask
I love this brand for its face masks as they always do an amazing job and are great value for money. These face masks are so easy to use, just wait 15-20 minutes then wash off! I normally apply these masks whilst I'm in the bath then I wash it off just before I get out and voila I have healthy, smooth skin! These masks are great value for money at just £1 each!
After using these products my skin feels baby smooth and thanks me for it later! Tweet me or write in the comments your favourite pamper products either from this blog post or from your own collection!
