Nashy Masterful Collection - Review ://

So I am always on the hunt for some new makeup brushes and was kindly sent this beautiful set by Nashy to try and review for you all!

These brushes have synthetic bristles and are 100% Vegan, aswell as being completely cruelty free and approved by Peta; as some of you know I am a big animal lover, so when I am looking at new brushes this is something that appeals to me.

I love the stylish yet simple look of these brushes and of course not forgetting the amazing quality of them.
They come in a nice sturdy box and there are a complete set of 12.

The bottom two photos are my favourite brushes from this whole set.
I found when using these brushes they pick up the ideal amount of product, unlike a lot of cheaper brands available.
They blend perfectly into my skin without any streaks, or any of the bristles falling out.

My favourite brushes from this set are -

  • The Stippling Brush
  • The Contouring Brush
  • The Crease Brush
  • The Blending Brush
  • The Pencil Brush
Overall I am completely in love with this brush set; they are now my go to brushes whenever I do my makeup.
I really do highly recommend these brushes and are so worth the money!

The WOW Mask :// Review

So I was kindly sent the WOW mask to try out and do a review on and I have to say I was surprised when I used this Mask!

This mask claims to do many things :

  • Soothe Irritated Skin
  • Provide a lifting effect
  • Reduces dynamic and fine wrinkles and signs of ageing
  • Lightens skin and reduces hyper pigmentation
  • Gives deep skin hydration and moisture
  • Restores your skins natural elasticity and tone
  • Reduces puffiness and redness 

There is one downside to this product, it is £99.99 for a pack of 5.
So because of the price and everything it claims to do I really was expecting this product to WOW me and its safe to say it did!

When I opened the packet I was surprised when I saw the weird silicone texture of the sheet mask!
I opened the packet and took out the top section of the mask and peeled off the plastic sheets and placed it on my face.
I have to say you do need to fiddle around with this mask trying to stop it slipping down your face.
The mask its self is pretty big and I found it hard to fit my face without it creasing and slipping down my face. 

After I applied the mask I left it for the full 40 minutes and let it do its magic!

It felt really nice on my skin and had a kind of cooling effect which made my skin feel refreshed.
When I was sat waiting and drinking my cup of tea it made me feel nice and relaxed.

After taking this mask off my skin felt fresh, plump and so soft!
I honestly feel like this mask massively helped the redness on my face and some how managed to help to reduce the colour of the scaring.
And it made my skin look nice and bright, like I have had a spar treatment!

Overall I love this product and although its out my price range it would make a good present for someone that likes the idea of a spar treatment but in their own home.

My Little Box :// Review

So its review time again!
I was kindly sent a My Little Box by one of the team to help kick star my new year.
I have tried a few different types of beauty boxs in the past and this one seems to really stand out to me.
The box it comes in is a nice big size and is full to the brim with items.

What I really like about this brand of beauty box is the fact that they have a theme for every month so far, hopefully they will keep up to that standard.

If you haven't guessed already this box is called the 'Energy Box' so obviously its going to have items to help your skin and get you feeling fresh for the new year.

So the first things in my box were a My little box magazine, the photography in this little booklet was great.
I also got a little Happy New year card and a diary for 2015.

So lets get onto the important items in this box!

The biggest thing in this box was the gym bag, its gorgeous but I still have yet to use it, but I am planning on starting Zumba soon so I am sure I will find a use for it then.

I also got a little fabric bag with a couple of cosmetic items in it.

The first thing I got was this gorgeous deep, red wine colour by Nails Inc in the colour Tate, as a brand of nail varnish it only needs a couple of coats and lasts a week without chipping too much.
I also received a hydrating moisturiser by Talika, this isn't a brand that I have heard of before but the product dose seem nice. 
The next item is I think the favourite items in my box.
It is a emerging face and body mist, it has a fresh lemon sent to it and is packed with vitamin C which is known for amazing toning properties.
It also has a little bit of green tea in it which we all know is so good for you.

So this is defiantly one of the best beauty boxes on the market and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is wanting to try one of these.
All the products are what I believe is full sized, and are 100% worth the money.
I can't wait to try another one of these lovely boxes!  

If you have tried one then comment below and let me know what you thought of it, or if you are going to try one tweet me at @saliorsarah and let me know what you thought of it!

Bourjois 123 Perfect CC Eye Concealer Review



I am always on the look for a nice hydrating but good coverage under eye concealer and i thought that i would give this CC Eye Concealer by Bourjois a go.
It claims to instantly illuminate your under eyes and the silicone applicator claims to smooth lines and wrinkles.
This product is £7.99 but is currently on a 3 for 2 in boots.


I have been using this product for a couple of weeks now.
I have to say it is very smooth on the skin and is pretty good coverage but it doesn't smooth out all the fine lines under my eyes, but to be honest i don't mind.
All i need an under eye concealer for is to help give coverage with my dark under eyes.

As you can see in the photos below i have a slight purple colouring under my eyes and this concealer helps to cover completely!
Even when i have been at work all day my under eye concealer still looks the same and doesn't crease.
I am completely in love with this product and will most deffiently be buying another one!

OOTD : Leather and Heels

Hello lovelys! 
Here is my outfit that i wore when i went to meet up with my friend Hope the other day.
I had just got paid and was doing a little bit of online window shopping, i popped on Asos and found a few bits that i just fell in love with.
One of the things that i bought from Asos is this lovely LA top with a blue and pink floral print on the sleeves. It also has tassels! I don't own anything with them so when i got this, i have to say i was pretty excited. I got the LA top in a size 6 in the Petit section on Asos..
In this outfit i decided to wear my trusty old Joni jeans from Topshop that i paired with my really old leather jacket from Newlook that i got when i was about 15 and these lovely monochrome boots from Newlook. They are the most comfortable heeled boots i have ever worn!
Sadly this jacket is starting to wear a lot but i found a beautiful new one on ebay the other day and won it for £15!! I have to say i was over the moon.

Also when taking the photos for this blog post the cat from across the road decided she wanted some attention so i got a couple of snaps of her too!
