Hello Everyone!
I hope you are all having a fab evening! Half way through the week tomorrow. I cannot work out if i think this week is dragging or not? At points in the day it seems to go really slow but now when I think it's wednesday tomorrow I feel like it is going pretty quick.
So recently, well for a little while now I have debated about getting lip fillers. I know some of you might think thats risky why the hell would you want to do that. But truth is it's not even to make my lips look a lot bigger. To me its more to even out my top lip from my bottom. Because to my my bottom lip is considerably bigger than my top. My top lip is so thin I feel & I just don't really like it. I'd much rather have it more even. But I have seen some girls that have them done & they regret it or they just end up looking so fake & not at all natural & nice looking. I really wouldn't want that. So I have been trying to look at what beauty products I buy to help enhance my lips & plump them more naturally.
I have come across a lip plumping primer from a brand called Purity Beauty.
All Purity's products are 100% natural & organic. So they contain nothing bad for your skin. They help to encourage natural beauty. Unlike un-natural products, purity beauty's products contain ingredients which make them more longer lasting & give more natural results. As a brand they sell products which are used in people's everyday beauty routine from skin care, to lips & face care.
The purity lip plumping primer are made with natural pearl particles & also jojoba beads. It helps to boost your lips natural circulation, leaving your lips softer, plumper & looking more youthful.
It also contains vitamins to alter the lips collagen structure.
You use the primer in your daily routine & the lips collagen is regularly activated which helps it provide longer lasting results.
The primer comes in a silver packaging, you remove the lid & it features a brush like tip. Twist the bottom of the pen around 3 times to ensure the product dispenses. Leave the product on your lips for around 5 minutes to ensure it is fully absorbed into your skin & you can then apply a lipstick or gloss of your choice as usual. I will pre-warn you, you do feel a slight tingling sensation but this is perfectly normal!
It is also available on their website as an introductory price of only £9.99 currently!So it is definitely worth a try. I have only been using it for a few days now so I wont post any pictures of the results as yet. But I will keep you posted on here or on my instagram page.
An item I love to team up with the lip plumping primer currently is a product from Burts Bee's.
Burt's Bees are another natural skincare brand. They are made with 100% natural product.It is amazing to think it all started from a beekeepers backyard in America & is now one of the best selling beauty brands! I have heard so many goods things about them so I wanted to give them a try. I know people who have brought the lip balms but I wanted to be a bit different & try something which adds abit more colour.
So I have two of the lip crayons:
(435) Napa Vineyard - a dark red kind of shade
(429) Hawaiian Smolder - a pinky kind of shade
They are so lightweight & not at all heavy feeling on your lips.
A matte colour shade which contains shea butter, Kendi oil & jojoba oil. You can wear it alone or even with a lip gloss or lip shine. It has no added fragrances or flavours to it which some lip products seem to have I find at times. It helps hydrate & moisture them leaving the skin feeling soft & smooth. I actually really love them. The colours I have are so lovely, I would like to get a more subtle colour though especially for work as I tend to wear very faint colours to work.
So definitely give them both a try! If you want something more plumping or just a natural ingredient lip colour.

Hello everyone!
Good Evening! I hope you all had a lovely weekend & your dreaded Monday wasn't all that bad for you!
Christmas is now fast approaching! It's only round the corner now. I finally finished buying all my presents yesterday but I still have all my wrapping to do. I don't know what's worse the buying of it or the wrapping? Christmas truly isn't the same when you grown up. It's pretty sad really.
As you all might have guessed by now with my previous posts for me skin care & having healthy looking skin is so important to me. I will admit I haven't got the best skin in the world but I do try my best to look after my skin as best as I can. Especially as I am actually a qualified beautician too so I have no excuse in not knowing how to look after my skin. I did suffer with acne a little & problem skin when I was like 10-11 years old & was prescribed cream by the doctor & even as I've got older I do sometimes end up with problem areas to my face but I think must people end up with spots even if it is just one area at some point. If you don't then you are so so lucky! I wish I was but I'm just not.
As well as skin care routine, having a good supplement to help promote healthy skin is a must I think. Because it can help give your skin the extra added vitamins that it needs to stay healthy & clear for longer. Not only that but helping to boost your body too.
I have recently started a skin care supplement by natural beauty slimming called skin care plus. It is a completely natural beauty treatment designed to help your body stem the ageing process and help your skin regain its natural tone and suppleness.
For anyone who doesn't know collagen appears throughout the body. It is in our skin mostly. It does do so much for our bodies but it more importantly provides your skin with its elasticity, texture, resilience and shape. As we age we lose collagen and if it is not replaced the effects of ageing become more visible to us & no one wishes to look older than they have to. The capsules offer a collagen supplement in an easy to absorb form. They are designes to be absorbed whole in the small intestine meaning it is not broken down by the digestive system & lost before it has the chance to help your body to benefit from it. But it is not only a boost for collagen to help ageing skin it can also be taken to help aid regeneration of joints, bones & other things.
The supplement you simply take before bedtime with water. With only 1-2 capsules to be used.
This allows the body to process and absorb the collagen in the most efficient way during the natural repair cycle as you sleep. Whilst results can be seen sooner, this is a process of repair and building a healthy body, so it can take up to 3 months to really feel the benefit of taking Marine Collagen supplements. I have only been on them a week so I can't say I've seen a huge change yet as it is still early days but I am excited to see the results & for my skin to be extra healthy.
The capsules also contain vitamins C & B3.
Natural beauty slimming don't just sell these skin care capsules they also have a vast number of products on their website ranging from hair care, tanning, weight loss. So depending on what kind of supplement you are looking for they could have a suitable one for you. Especially this time of year when everyone is busy with Christmas & your skin starts to look sluggish & things. It is nice to be able to give it that boost & extra little bit of care that it starts to need as you get older. It is so important to look after your skin & I do truly believe that.
The website is:
https://www.naturalbeautyslimming.com/
The skin care capsules come as a pot of 90 & are £27.00
But for skin care you cannot put a price on it.
Take care

Hello everyone!
I am starting to get terrible at keeping up & writing a post lately! I think it's because Christmas is around the corner & I have been visiting family before Christmas & doing my Christmas shopping & things. But I really need to write more! That will definitely be a New Years resolution I think.
This time of year the cold weather just seems to dry out your skin. Well I know it dries out mine. My lips go dry & crack, my skin by the corner of my nose dries out & it just feels a little more dry than normal. I think going from out in the cold to the warm inside seems to do this. Well it contributes to it that's for sure.
Also as we all know we are not getting any younger. I know I'm not sadly. So recently when buying skin care products I have tried to start choosing items which perhaps contain some kind of anti aging ingredients to try & start to help my skin. I didn't want to have to yet but i thought I start now then it will definitely help for the future.
I decided to try a new brand in skin care products, I do tend to try several different brands but more recently I have used clarins. But this time I've chosen a brand called Purelogicol.
Purelogical is an anti-ageing skincare brand with a range of collagen-based skincare products and supplements. Their ethos is based around the idea of beauty starting from within. Using a combination of their supplements and skincare products you can use to help reveal a rejuvenated, youthful and radiant complexion.
I love a good toner & as a beautician I think they are a key part of your everyday skin care routine. So one of the products I wanted to try is the intelligent toner which contains normaseb which helps balance the sebaceous function of oily, dry or combination skin. It has a cooling formula which helps to remove traces of cleanser, helps to refine the pores & also helps to restore your skins PH level. It also contains pomegranate extract which helps energise skin cells while also soothing with also chamomile which the toner contains too & along with aloe Vera which leaves the skin feeling soft, hydrated & refreshed!
Toner is used in the morning & evening after you have cleansed your skin. Gently apply it with a cotton pad & gently sweep it over your face & neck. Taking care to avoid direct contact with your eyes.
The second item I got was the pure hydrolysed collagen peptide skin supplement. Because I am quite a sucker for good supplements to help with skincare & wellbeing. These capsules are used to help boost your collagen & reduce the signs of ageing. The supplement is used to help viably reduce fine lines & wrinkles, boost collagen, increase skin moisture, decrease pores & improve the skins elasticity.
In one box it contains 90 x 600mg pure collagen capsules which is a months supply. You simply take 3 capsules before bedtime with a glass of water. Purelogical do advise to use the capsules for three months to get the best results & to contain after to keep on going results.
So I cannot wait to get started with these & see what happens with my skin. I don't have to worry too much yet about ageing skin but I do believe looking after your skin now will benefit you when you are older. So there is definitely no harm in starting early!
Even grazia have revealed madonna uses the collagen capsules!
