The Mother of Facemasks GlamGlow SuperMud Mask - Review

After trying (and loving) the GlamGlow YouthMud mask I was dying to try the SuperMud version. Admittingly I didn't know what the difference was between the two, or what to expect from this one but from my previous Glam Glow experience and from skimming through the ingredient list that I had to try this!

Beyonce Releases Couples Underwear

Beyonce has just released 'gay inclusive' underwear and just in time for Valentines Day! When I read this first I thought...what the hell is 'gay inclusive' supposed to mean? Instead of the usual 'His and Hers' themed accessories out this time of year Beyonce has stepped it up with 'Yours and Mine' underwear. LOVE this idea!

Top 10 Makeup Products of The Year 2013

Sorry for the lack of blog posts here guys! I have been doing lots of YouTube videos lately, another one is set to go live later this evening so watch out for that! :)

As Christmas seems like a distant memory at this stage and we have waved good bye to 2013, I was looking back on the year and thinking of how many new things I found out about. Given it was the year I started beauty blogging I was introduced to many new makeup products, some of them have now become essentials. Without further ado, here are my top 10 makeup finds of 2013

Irish Beauty Bloggers Secret Santa Reveal

As this is my first year as a beauty blogger I was super excited to get involved in the Irish Beauty Bloggers Secret Santa. The wonderful Aisling from Total Makeup Addict organised it and wow did she do a great job! From the research into it and actually managing it... hats off, big time!

I love shopping and buying gifts for people and as this was for beauty bloggers it made it even better, you can see what I got Girl_Friday from Girlfridays Beauty Blog on her reveal post.

When my package arrived from the lovely Lauren Marie from Makeup by Lauren Marie I was so excited! I received the Essie Winter 2013 Collection and the Barry M Natural Glow Pallet

Winter Essentials #3 - Dry Hands?

Dry winds, cold water, exposed to the elements - your hands often bear the brunt of the cold weather. Dry hands are especially common in winter and even more so if you're prone to symptoms of sensitive skin like inflammation or eczema.

 

Winter Essentials #2 - Chapped Lips

Lets face it we can all think of way nicer things than having chapped lips. They feel nasty, sore, sometimes bleed and what gets me most is that your lipstick looks just awful when applied over chapped lips.

With their really thin layers of skin they are much more likely than the rest of the face to dry out, especially with the winter elements mixed in.

So here's how to fight the freeze this winter...
