Benefit POREfessional review

As I have dived into the love of makeup, head first, I have built my collection dramatically.

 I first started off with a foundation and a mascara and then branched out from there.

 I loved going in makeup stores and searching for products that a bunch of beauty gurus on YouTube had suggested. Recently I have done it once again and rummaged through Benefit for the holy grail item, 'porefessional'.

* Porefessional is a PRO balm that minimizes the appearance of pores. 

*A regular tube holds 22mls. 

*It promises to be lightweight and feel silky.

 I have loved this product! The Porefessional glides on easily and not only takes away the appearance of pores but also hides my smile lines. Over the years I have had trouble finding a foundation that doesn't crease into my smile lines, but now I see that it wasn't the foundation that was the problem! It was not having porefessional! I know that porefessional can be used as a Primer and be applied to moisturised skin to help makeup stay put, but I prefer to use it over the top of my makeup instead. Seeing as I'm afraid that the tube will run out quickly, I dab a spot over my makeup on my forehead, chin, an nose area,(where pores are most visible). I then use my buffing brush and blend it in. I love this product and will definitely repurchase! I would recommend this product for all skin types and any readers that suffer from dry skin, spots, or smile lines as it makes the foundation look less caked on in those areas. 

 P.s It's oil free!

Lush review

As all girls should, I own many lush products. From bath bombs to shower jells, I have tried the lot, and here are a few of my favourites!  

Dragons egg;

Dragons egg is one of my favourite bath bombs ever! It is infused with citrus scents and leaves your skin feeling smooth and glowing. Not only is the outcome amazing, the secret gold that bubbles on the inside of the egg is an extraordinary surprise. The only downside to this bath bomb would have to be the fact that it leaves your bath water stained with a tinge if yellow, (same color as wees :P). All in all, I love this bath bomb and lucky for me, the scent is amazing. As some of the lush products can have a very overpowering smell, I think I should mention that this definatley doesn't and is a lot more subtle. 

Dream cream;

Sadly I am one of those many people that don't sleep easily. When I went into lush and told the stuff exactly that, they pulle this out along with a few other products that I also purchased. I tried out many products to help me fall asleep, and this one has worked wonders. I have found myself falling asleep much faster along with having fresh an light feeling skin. I hate the feeling of sticky skin, or when you can feel that a product hasn't been absorbed by your skin and is just sitting ontop of the surface, and this defiantly doesn't do this. This product is also amazing on sunburn as it is very moisturising. 

I have to say, I have recently been very impressed by lush with their Christmas range, and have decided to try out more! I know that spending NZ$7 on a bath bomb can seem rather pricey, but as they don't use any companies that test on animals products, and everything is hand made, I think it is worth it! I am sorry I haven't posted recently I am away at my Bach in my phone, for the summer holidays! Hope everyone is having a great time on holidays, and if it isn't your holidays yet, just look forward to the next ones!
