SOAP & GLORY Thick & Fast Mascara & Smoulder Kohl

Hey Chicas... 

so I did a bit of a clear out in regards to mascaras... which meant I needed to search for a new one... on a little trip to Boots, I looked through all different brands, but I wanted something different from the usual L'Oreal etc and thats when Soap & Glory caught my eye!! I am a sucker for packaging! and Sopa (soup? haha! i swear Im not thinking about SOUP!) & Glory (Soap & Glory) are fantastic at this! I wanted to buy the whole stand haha but since I was only searching for Mascara, I decided to go for THICK & FAST  HD Mascara, but I couldnt resist a new eyeliner, so I went for SMOULDER Kohl... 

The Mascara is great, I am quite fussy with the type of mascara wands, and this one is great, can be a lil fidly at first but then you get the hand of it, as there are two sides one with slightly longer bristles and one with more dense shorter ones... the formula and wand works well with my lashes, definately lifts and seperates them giving them a lovely flirty look but still quite natural... 

Smoulder Kohl, great for deep black lining, but although it says its waterproof, it tends to smudge quite easily, it glides on the water line, doesn tug, so its very good in that sense, but I think it needs maybe a black powder to go over it maybe to stop it from smudging... need to expriment a bit with it...

overal, defo recommend both products, and you need to check out the rest of the range.... this is almost like a more affordable version of Benefit... :)

MONTAGNE JENNESSE Hot Chocolate Pore Cleansing Sauna Masque

I am usually a lover of Montagne Jennesse Masks, but unfortunately, this time round I really wasnt impressed.



I have very oily skin, particularly on the good ol T-Zone, my cheecks and around my nose can be a little weird though as it can get oily, but at times feel a little dehydrated. I have quite large pores, and quite a lot of acne scars (so depressing!) so when I do masks, I go for pore cleansing masks, and also masks that help to tighten and minimize pore size, I find that these also help thee lovely scars...



This Chocolate Pore Cleansing Sauna Masque seemed ideal, as I needed something to deep cleanse, I wasnt expecting smaller/tighter pores but hey even if it doesnt say it on the packaging, one could wish for that as an extra, right? WELL... The mask made NO difference at all, I didnt feel it did much cleansing of the pores, my skin felt a little dry once I washed it all off, and I felt I needed to triple moisturise after using it... the mask was left on for no longer than 15mins. The only good thing about this mask was the texture of it, ease of application and the scent. Thats it, NADA MAS! (nothing more) so yep, totes disappointed!

I was going to post a before and after, but my skin is so bad with no makeup that I just couldn't put you all through that, you might have nightmares! haha (trust me its bad!)




ROBERTO CAVALLI - si tuviera todo el dinero del mundo...

Con tantos diseñadores en el mundo, hay uno en particular that gives me goosebumps... that is the amazing Roberto Cavalli.

His designs, the prints, the fabrics just everything shouts Classy Sexiness... si tuviera todo el dinero del mundo, and had J-Lo's figure, I would dress from head to toe in Cavalli. Below les dejo some of my favourite pieces from the Autumn/Winter 13 collection


Being a HUGE Leopard Print fanatic, you can see why I love the above two dresses!




What I also love is that Cavalli have, although limited (and not always flattering) a PLUS SIZE range, which if your interested in, go to http://www.navabi.co.uk/_roberto-cavalli-white.html and check out the plus size pieces on offer... my favorite is the Roberto Cavalli White Leopard Print Dress click on the link to view http://www.navabi.co.uk/dresses-roberto-cavalli-white-leopard-print-dress-olive-green-black-9882-5424.html

Are there any designers that you favor and do they have a range that caters to the more voluptuous woman? If money wasnt an issue, what would you spend your money on???
