Hair Care

Bleach London Live Forever Shampoo- This is the only shampoo that I've used this month and my hair has been such an even clean colour. If you colour your hair this is a really good shout. My hair dresser recommended that I stop using silver shampoos and stuff on my hair so this is my alternative. It keeps my colour looking bright blonde and looking healthy. 

Bleach London Reincarnation Mask- When I first used this mask and had dark hair I really didn't rate it, but now that I'm blonde the perks have came to light. Its makes my hair look and feel healthy, brings the colour out a bit more in the process too.

Andrew Barton Blonde Leave in Conditioner- This is a spray conditioner, I use this when my hair is damp but also when it dry and is looking pretty erm dry. Its great if you style your hair a lot a keep the washing minimal, I see all you bleachys. It just refreshes your hair and stops it looks so dry and damaged.

Makeup

Benefit The Porefessional Powder- I bought this right at the beginning of May, on pay day obviously! I ran out of my Nars loose powder but I wasn't near a Nars retailers so I tried Benefit. The packaging has been engineered by a genious. So, you tip the loose powder into the lid and on the bottom a brush is stored, great for in your bag or travelling, you'll never be without a brush! I use this every single day, really good coverage and mattifying, lasts pretty much all day and sets my makeup well. 

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara-For ages I didn't want to buy this, purely because EVERYONE uses it. But I can totally see why, its by far the best mascara I've ever used. Maybelline are great for mascaras and they're high street prices too! Normally when I buy new mascara it takes a few weeks to kind of break it in but there was none of that, was straight into action. I wear 2 coats of this on my top lashes and they're good to go for the whole day, there's a really good length for my short lashes, it doesn't flake or go all clumpy.

Delilah Time Frame Foundation-This has snuck back into being my everyday foundation. I wear this pretty much every day for work. There's just enough of a creamy texture to give you a glow without your makeup moving around or making you look like a sweat box. The colour(Buttermilk) is just enough warmth for my cool skin tone and the coverage is medium but long lasting. Really quick and easy to blend, perfect for work mornings!

Body

Lush Pearl Massage Bar- The Lush massage bars aways really confused me so I just never bought one. I finally got one to try and I love it so I've re-purchased. I use this when I've just gotten out of the bath or shower so I'm warm and just rub the bar over skin and the only way I can describe it is like a oil bar. Your skin feels amaze after, this one smells good too.

Thanks for reading, I cant believe its June already tho

Delilah Time Frame Foundation

A recent purchase of mine has been the Delilah Time Frame Foundations. Before buying I had never heard of the brand or any of there products until I came across some youtubers using it and bloggers reviewing it. It looked amaze I had to try it. 

 So I popped onto the website and bought myself a time frame. Okay so when I think of a kind of anti ageing product like this its just not something that I would go for because I'm a, touch wood, wrinkle free 18 year old. But, I had a read of the website and it said that it protects against environmental damage due to the vitamin A and E antioxidants. So that was enough for me to buy. I love products that contains things like vitamins, I feel like I'm making my skin good above and below. Also, it contains peptides used for the anti ageing side. And if that wasn't enough there is also an SPF of 20, always good to protect your skin from the sun.   

When buying this online I wasn't sure what colour that I would be and had to kind of guess. I'm rather pale so I decided to buy the second palest colour there, Buttermilk.  I am actually very impressed with my choice. It is the perfect colour for my skin, not too dark or light just my skin colour. I always like to have foundations the colour of my skin or slightly lighter so I can just darken it down with bronzer if needs be.  

I use 2-3 pumps of the foundation to get a good cover on over my face and neck. Something that I really love about this foundation is how buildable it is. When its on your face it feels so lightweight asif you've just applied moisturizer. It doesn't leave your skin feeling caked even though there is a good coverage. Its easily blended and to work with, I use my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush when using it. This foundation is also a brightening one leaving a good healthy glow to skin.     

Aswell as loving the actual product itself I also love the packaging. Rose gold, who wouldnt love it.  The pastel pink box sits lovely withe the grey and rose gold. Also I love how big it is. Its the tallest foundation that I own, its such a good size.

I really love this foundation! I would love to try more from the Delilah brand. Its just an effortlessly amazing foundation. Blends easy, no cakey feel, skin health enhancing qualities, brightening and all in lovely packaging. What more could you really want from a foundation?   

It costs £34.
