<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As you can probably tell I have taken and long and well needed break from my blog. (7 Months to be exact) I never decided to take such a long break, but blogging started to lose its place in my life and other things had to take priority. But recently I have found my self with more time and wanting to read and write blogs again and so I'm back and I'm making it a goal of mine to be a consistent blogger from here on out. But this post isn't about me, so I'm not going to drown on about it any longer! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last Saturday I was lucky enough to attend a meet up in Orange Rooms Southampton organised by <a href="http://www.anniewritesbeauty.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"><b>Alice</b></a> and <a href="http://www.amzyinwonderland.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><b>Amy</b></a>. The two of them did and absolutely amazing job and if your reading this, thank you again girlies! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I headed down with my bestie <a href="http://www.brogantatexo.co.uk/" target="_blank"><b>Brogan</b></a> and we meet everyone outside and joined them with some drinks in the lovely weather. After a chat we then moved upstairs to the Tiki Lounge for some food. I've eaten at Orange Rooms before and this visit lived up to my expectations again ( I had the Nachos!). I'd definitely recommend a trip down there if you have one locally to you.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After food we all gathered together for a raffle with some great prices and we we're given our amazing goodie bags. After that and of course a few group photos, we spent some time getting to know each other! It was a lovely afternoon spent in a beautiful location and with great company! I meet some lovely girls who I am sure that I'll stay in contact with from now on!</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I'd love to know if you guys have ever been to a meet up, and how it went!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey guys,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>Sickness seems to have taken over my life recently, and that combined with uni has left me with very little time for blogging. So once again I'm sorry for not being around as much! </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A few weeks a go I got the chance to go to London for the Olympia beauty event, and while I was there I picked up the essie fall collection. I love deep and dark colours in the autumn time which is why I think I was drawn to this collection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I like the fact that these are all mini colours as well, because I have yet to ever use up a nail polish and so it keeps costs down! The collection cost about the £10 mark from the event, which if you ask me is a bargain! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Overall I really like all of the colours but I think 'For The Twill Of It' and 'The Lace Is On' are my favourites, as they're slightly more colourful. I especially how the colours change slightly in 'For The Twill Of It' in the light.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">First of all I need to apologise to you all for my lack of post this month. I have been a busy bee, with going back to uni and traveling up to London, which is no excuse, but its the only one I have. But I thought I would take some time today to sit down and write a post I've had planned for awhile.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I've mentioned before that I've always been on the look out for a product that keeps my make up on for longer, and so when I saw this travel size in Debenhams for £9 I thought I'd give it a try. And since then I use this baby every time I do my make up. </span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>'All Nighter keeps your makeup looking gorgeously just-applied for up to 16 hours – without melting, cracking, fading or settling into fine lines. </i></span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><i>Developed in an exclusive partnership with SKINDINÄVIA, our groundbreaking, clinically tested formula is suitable for all skin types and features patented Temperature Control Technology. Yep, this baby actually lowers the temperature of your makeup to keep foundation, eyeshadow, blush and concealer in place – even in hot and humid or cold and windy conditions. The result? Smoother-looking skin and vibrant makeup that lasts all day (or all night).'</i></span></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So it works pretty simply, you do all your make up as normal and then when your done, spray this in an 'X' and 'T' formation over your face to lock it all in. and lock it in it does.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I'm not saying that after a 10 hour day it leaves your make up looking freshly applied but by god does it make a difference. You can still see some of my make up left on my skin and my dark scaring is still barley visible. I also notice that when I take off my make up theres more product on my cotton pads.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>It leaves my skin looking less patchy, less flaky, less missing, less everywhere to be honest.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> In short I don't know the technicalities of how it keeps my make up on longer, I just know it does the job beautifully, and also with that it makes a brilliant mid day top up when i'm feeling the need for a refreshing spritz.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Today I thought I'd come back to the old blog and bring you guys my August Favourites! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My first favourite of the month has to be the <b>Urban Decay 'All Nighter' Make up Setting Spray</b>. I will eventually do a full review of this on my blog but for now I'll do a quick sum up! I had never found anything that would keep my make up on for longer before I found this. And although I'm always dubious as to how much these product works I really do see an improvement to how my make up looks after a days wear and to how much product is coming off when I actually take my make up off. It leaves my make up looking fresher for longer so a big thumbs up from me.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My next favourites are the <b>MUA 'Undress Me Too' eye shadow palette</b> and the <b>Eco Tools 'Eyeshadow Brush</b>' which kinda go together on here. Im not a huge eye shadow wearer, but I thought with the summer months coming I'd step out and try some colour! I've been loving this palette, for a novice like me its perfect for trying out some combinations and getting the hang of it all. The Eco Tools brush has also been so handy, Its such a multi use brush and perfect for the basics that I need it for. Will definitely be investing in more of these brushes! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Next up I've been loving a new <b>face mask by 'Mudd'</b>. I picked this up from Sainsburys on a whim and im surprised how much I love it. I've missed actual mud face masks that dry and stiffen. I've always felt like I get a deeper clean from them, and although I know there are better on the market, this works for me, plus the pack is reusable which is a big plus for me, I've used it about 3 times and its still going strong! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My next favourite I seem to be coming back to over and over again and its the <b>Witch Skin Clearing Primer</b>. I love the consistency, to me it feels more like a moisturiser than I primer which I love. But creates the perfect base for my make up. I also feel it does keep my skin at bay. And if I ever have an angry-looking red spot, I feel this acts a barrier between it and my makeup and calms the area down a bit. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My Last Favourite is the <b>Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in Violet Pop</b>. I got this a few weeks ago at a blogging event, and have been wearing nothing else since. I love how with a light hand and lipgloss over the top it makes a perfect day colour and can be built up to make quite a dramatic lip. It's quite a smooth texture as well and very moisturising. This is the first Rimmel lipstick I own by and I will definitely be looking into more! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hi Guys! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A few days ago I tried to bring you guys a haul post, but I was having one of those 'Nothing is working' days and the photos looked awful! So after much deliberation, I decided to make my first Youtube video! It's something I've been wanting to do this for years. And I actually did make about 5 videos years and years ago. (which are long gone I may add). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There's no harm in trying right? So Please let me know your thoughts and feelings bellow and any suggestions would be lovely! But please go easy on me, I'm still a novice and still have a lot to work out! :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">About 2 weeks ago I decided I would finally mix it up a bit a dye my hair. I've never done dyed my hair before so It's safe to say I was slightly nervous! Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of the process *bad blogger!* but I thought I would share with you the results!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I used the Loreal Paris Wild Ombrés Preference kit in the shade Ombré 2. I couldn't be happier with the results! I love it and wish I had done it sooner! Although my hair is feeling a little damaged its nothing compared to what I expected, and is feeling relatively healthy now I've had it cut. So a big thumbs up from me!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>*Its another long one, you might want a cuppa first!*</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">For me university has been the best whirlwind of a journey I've ever been on. And even the times I wished I was at home, I loved it too, and I have so many crazy, hysterical memories that I will never forget. The best part of my life in uni has to be the people I've meet and the friends I've made. From the friends for life, to the 'best friend' you drunkenly make in the bathroom queue in a club, they all count.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Jumping back a year from now...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Excitement is the only emotion I remember having towards going to university, like many of you guys getting ready to move now I'm sure. I was ready to move out, and the idea of doing silly things like cooking and shopping for myself was something I really looked forward too. I bought all my matching crockery sets and had everything packed and ready for about a week before I was actually due to move in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> Moving in week passed in a blur of 'hello's' and 'I'm Megan'. But by the end of the week I felt as if I'd already been there for a month. It was crazy how quickly and easily me and my flatmates all formed as a kitchen. I was so incredibly lucky to be placed with the people I was, and although we are all completely different (and have actually agreed that we would never have normally hung out with each other) In this kind of environment, where your alone we all got along.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Freshers Week...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Again this passed in a blur, but this time it was more of an alcohol induced blur. Foam parties, bar crawls and nights sat on the bathroom floor holding back hair, it all happened. But it was one of the best weeks at uni. It was also the same week I began my course, so although the 9am lectures weren't appreciated on 3 hours sleep, I finally got to see what I had signed myself up for over the next three years.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I was one of those students who had researched and knew everything there was to know about my course. Thats my one piece of advice to anyone starting out at uni. Make sure you know what you've signed up for, and that your doing your course for the right reasons. There would be nothing worse than resenting and hating your course, after hoarding out a small fortune to get onto it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>The Next 6 Months...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Surprise Surprise, they passed in a blur. Sometimes alcohol induced sometimes stressed induced. The months passed with a combination of nights out, and deadlines. Nights in watching 'Saw' films in the fire escape and water ballon fights in the corridors. Birthdays and again more alcohol, followed by again early lectures and pretty bad hangovers. Playing in the park in the snow and sitting in the park in the sun drinking cider.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Before I knew it exams were rolling around. A year ago when I thought of moving into halls, I never once thought about the day when it would end. I never once did when I was there, and quickly it crept up on all of us, until all of a sudden someone was packing up their room and moving out. I was one of the last to leave and so I watched all of my friends who I had lived with for the last 6 months pack up and go. Some I knew I would see again, some I knew I wouldn't.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>A Year On...</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My summer is nearly over and in about a month I will be moving in with 4 other amazing girls to live in a student house. I know this year I'm not in for such an easy ride. The work load will be heavier for all of us and i'm sure the sight of my overdraft will again be a recurring and unpleasant sight. But looking back on my first year at uni and the all the people I've meet i'm pretty sure we still have tons more laughs.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">To those of you about to start uni, enjoy it! Never again will you get to live in halls. To those who are nervous, as cliche as it is (but true), everyone is in the same boat, and everyone wants to make friends, so maybe leave your door open when you move in, or make a point of hanging about the kitchen. To those who are worried about the workload, stay on top of what you have to do so your not in for any nasty surprises. To those of you worried about money, work out how much you can afford to spend each week and stick to it. To those of you worried about sharing your bathroom or kitchen with a bunch of boys, bring rubber gloves! Uni and living in halls is difficult and wont always be a bed of roses, but even on the worst days there will always be 20 more good ones to make it worth it.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I've been having a bit of 'bloggers block' at the moment and while looking through my make up draw for inspiration I realised how many products I rarely use, and voila! This post is born. I didn't want to name this 'products least worth the hype' because I think these products just aren't for me rather than them being bad products. But I don't hate any of the products and still try to work with them, they just tend to end up at the back of my shelf collecting dust! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">First on the list is <b>Nivea's In-Shower Skin Conditioner</b>, I know this is a relatively new product to already be collecting dust, but it just isn't for me. Like many of you know I went on holiday a few weeks ago and I took this with me as my skin tends to end up looking and feeling like a desert when I'm away. But this did absolutely nothing for my skin and I still had to moisturise afterwards, to me defeating the point of it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Next up is the beloved <b>Real Techniques Stippling Brush</b>. Although I love the Real Techniques brushes, I have never grown to love this one. I really didn't love the finish it gave my foundation and the few times I've used it with cream brushes I still haven't been wow'ed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The next product pains me to put in this as I love Benefit so much however <b>Benefits Boi-ing Concealer </b>just isn't for me. I was matched up horrifically wrong at the counter and even when I have a tan I still don't find I love it. The consistency makes it hard to work with and blend, and I feel it leaves my skin looking patchy which is not a good look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This is another Benefit Product however this is from the skin care range. <b>Benefits Triple Performance Facial Emulsion.</b> I actually have had about three samples of this for as many years and two are still unopened. This may sound slightly odd but it tastes awful if it gets on your lips! I also think it broke me out back when I tried it and since then i've always avoided it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Finally I have a hair care product that I really wanted to love but just don't. <b>Lee Stafford's Lightening Spray</b> basically 'naturally' lightens your hair. Which I loved the idea of as i'm always worried about dying my hair. However it left my hair so unbelievably dry and straw-like that I was instantly put off and i'm to scared for my hair to try it again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I hope you liked this post, let me know if they're is anything you'd like to see from my blog, and if you've tried any of these products! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Now im back in the comfort of my family kitchen I thought I would bring you another recipe post as baking is something I really love. Today I fancied something fruity and sweet and all around summery and so I thought i'd quickly put together an Eton Mess! I love Eton Mess, its so quick and simple and really tasty! Normally you only use Strawberries but I threw in some Raspberries and Blueberries too because why not?! Hope you Enjoy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Ingredients</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">300ml of Whipping or Double Cream</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">100g Maringue Nests</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">1tbsp of Caster Sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">1 tbsp of Icing Sugar </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">and a few handfulls of fruit </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Method </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b><br /></b></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Start by adding your cream and both lots of sugar to a bowl and <b>whisk</b> until the cream is light and fluffy (be careful not to over whip, I made that mistake once!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Next <b>break</b> up the meringue nests into large chunks and mix them into the cream.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Press</b> your fruit with the back of a fork slightly to break them up and release the juice and stir them into the meringue mix and your done! </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So as a few of you may know I recently went to Turkey for two weeks. While I was there I found myself reaching for a few beauty and body bits and bobs constantly, so I thought I would share them with you! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> Suncream is a staple on every holiday but this year I was loving <b>Piz Buin Tan & Protecr Suncream in SPF 6</b> it was really moisturising which is really important for my dry skin and didn't feel horrible and sticky on my skin like most sun creams. I also found the protection good, although being blessed with tough skin means I dont ever burn, I do occasionally peal ans with this I didn't really at all.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I spoke about this a few posts back but Im still really loving the <b>Garnier Ultimate Body Oil</b>. Its so quick and simple and worked so well at keep my skin moisturised in the heat. When I didn't use it my skin was super dry and horrible so I feel this really does work.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Although when Im away I dont tend to wear a huge amount of make up, in the evening I like a little colour on my cheeks and <b>NARS blush in Taj Mahal</b> has been my go to blush the whole time I was there and since I've been back. The gold colour looks brilliant with a tan and the hints of shimmer just made me look awake and sun kissed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Along with blush I was also wearing mascara and this year I picked up <b>L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Waterproof</b>. Again I loved this, it left my lashes long and full and really was waterproof, lasted all day when I was in and out the pool but came off at night with bioderma.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Lastly while I was away I carried <b>MAC fix +</b> with me everywhere! Probably not for the main reason your meant to but it was so nice to spray on my face if I was feeling really hot and sweaty and I felt like it was almost clearing my skin of all the dirt and dust it picked up while I was walking around and really refreshed my skin. I have a full review of fix + <b><a href="http://megansbeautybubble.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/review-mac-fix-plus-how-i-use-it.html" target="_blank">here</a></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">June has been a hectic month to say the least! Exams, moving out of halls and my birthday! So I thought i'd share my quick round up with you of my holy grails over this busy month! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Half way through this month I suffered a bit of a break out, which im putting down to stress, so I kicked up my skin care and introduced my beloved <b>Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser</b> back into my life! I had forgotten how much I loved this, how soothing it was. My skin felt quite tight and red and almost inflamed ans this really helped calm my skin down and feels amazing on my skin too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">At the same time I also re purchased <b>Witch Skin Clearing Primer</b>. I used to loveeeee this and when it finished I went on to try different things but nothing works like this. To me it feels like it stops my make up from aggravating my skin if im suffering a break out and also calms my skin down too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The one new beauty bit I tried out this month was the <b>L'Oreal Super Liner</b>, which im loving! It lasts all day and when it comes to taking my make up off its still completely there! Im still getting the hang of using it but its simple enough and I really like the pen style applicator.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This month I repurchased my <b>MAC Pro Long-wear Concealer</b>. My first one lasted me well over a year and I use it almost every day and I dont see myself using anything else from now on, I use this under my eyes and it doesn't crease and lasts all day I love the thick coverage and it really does cover any blemishes and dark circles, what more do you want from a concealer?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Onto the body bits! I picked up the<b> Garnier Ultimate Beauty Oil</b> when I saw it on sale in Tesco. Im the worst for moisturising my body, So I thought this might give me the incentive to try a bit more! I'm also going on holiday in a few days and I thought this would be handy to have with me. Its quick and simple and really does leave my skin feeling soft and moisturised and looking amazing, a completely different result to what you get with a body butter.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Over my Birthday I also repurchased the gorgeous <b>Daisy by Marc Jacobs</b>. Im a bit of a newbe to all this perfume talk but instead of the original design I picked up this one as I was informed it lasts longer on the skin, I dont think it actually does and I think I would save myself the money and buy the bigger original one next time. But the scent is still the same. floral and light and perfect for spring/summer!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Lovelies! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> Over my birthday I took a trip to my local MAC and bought my very first MAC lipstick (well two actually!) I couldn't decide which one I| loved more and did they typical 'It's my birthday so i'll treat myself to both', which i'd been doing all week! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I'm always a little wary of lipstick colours and I didn't want to spend £14 on a horrible shade so I pretty much let the make up artist try about 12 lipsticks on me and before we settled on <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/product/shaded/168/310/Products/Lips/Lipstick/Lipstick/index.tmpl" target="_blank">Captive</a>, which is a Satin finish, and <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/product/shaded/168/310/Products/Lips/Lipstick/Lipstick/index.tmpl" target="_blank">Girl About Town</a> which is an Amplified finish. Every day since i've bought them I've worn Captive and every night out i've swapped it for Girl About Town, which works perfectly with the Lipliner I picked up in the shade '<a href="http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/product/shaded/167/340/Products/Lips/Lip-Pencil/Lip-Pencil/index.tmpl" target="_blank">Magenta</a>' (which was £11.50) I never would have chosen these shades for myself but I don't see myself wearing anything else on my lips for a long time! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I also re purchased my <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/product/shaded/157/10181/Products/Face/Concealer/Pro-Longwear-Concealer/index.tmpl" target="_blank">Pro Longwear Concealer </a>I picked up the shade NC42, typically im going on holiday next week and no doubt it wont match when I get back but this is my shade for the majority of the year so I know I'll get use out of it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Over the last few months i've heard so much talk about Green Juice, the benefits they bring you, the taste of them and not to mention the lovely look of them (which isn't to appetising.) Dieticians swear by them and the benefits to your energy levels, digestion, skin, blood sugar levels, liver, lungs and the list goes on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> So after spending a few days researching I thought I would give it a go. I know some people do juice fasts and drink nothing but this, but I know i'd never stick to it, so I thought I would start by introducing the drinks once a day and see how I go. Im the worst for having my five a day and I thought this might be a good way, to get all your five a day in one. Cant hurt to try right?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I dont really have a recipe as such for the juice, i've just seen what other people put in and then mix and match my own juice. Todays juice was a definitely trial and error but now I know what it tastes like I have a better idea!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I used:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- A handful of Spinach </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- Small wedge of Cucumber </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- Small stalk of Celery *</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- 1 Apple </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- 1 peach </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- A handful of grapes </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- Very small slice of lemon </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- Juice of half a lemon</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">- Cup of water </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">* After trying this one I would definitely use <i>a lot</i> less celery, It ended up being one of the only things that I could taste (and not in a good way) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I made a second one for my mum and used a lot more grapes and apple and less lemon and celery as they dominated the taste, and this was a lot better. She also made me strain out the pulp for her and it made it a lot more drinkable, I think this may be down to our blender not being that powerful though.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Judging on this second juice It was good! I mean lets be realistic, If they tasted like liquidized chocolate we would all have been drinking them for years. They aren't incredibly tasty but considering there was 6 of my 5 a day in it, it tasted pretty darn good! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">After drinking a glass of this I was shocked at how full it left me feeling, It was the first thing I 'ate/drank' this morning and sitting here at half past 3 this afternoon I've only had a slice of toast and Im still very full. Normally if i'd only consumed this must by this time I'd be feeling sluggish and even dizzy where my blood sugar levels are so low but right now I'm feeling great.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I know this is a slightly different post compared to my beauty posts but I thought seeing as im hoping this will improve my skin and well being I thought it would be a good way of documenting changes! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> This Monday was my 19th Birthday, I had such a lovely day spending it with family and friends and I thought I would show you some of the clothes I picked up during a birthday shopping trip with my mum!</span><br />

<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Urban Outfitters - Printed Dress Around £35</span></u><br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I picked this gorgeous dress up from Urban Outfitters a few days back. I love the blue and orange colours and the unique print. I'm going on holiday in 3 weeks and I thought this would be perfect for a meal out as its so light weight, I love how it sits, it almost reminds me of a 60's Twiggy-esque style fit, but with a lovely modern patter.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">River Island - 'KISS' Shorts £30</span></u></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I saw these babies on Patricia Brights Video, and like her I was looking for a pair of 'dream shorts' I have to admit that these are exactly that! I was 'blessed' with a rather large bum which means buying shorts can be a right pain in the backside! (excuse the pun!) Shorts tend to fit round my bum and then HANNNNG off my waist or the other way around. But these fit me really well and are going to be a staple in my holiday wardrobe!</span></div>

<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Zara - Flower print Bandeau £15</span></u></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This is only my second ever zara purchase and I have no idea why I havent been in there, I had to hold myself back to just this one thing to start with! I think im in love with this bandeau top, I love the colours and I think they work well with my darker skin tone. There is a full length zip down the side which I love as it adds detail and makes for a secure fit! I can't wait to whack this out while im away! </span></div>

<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">River Island - Green Strappy Top £6</span></u></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I've been looking for a colourful thin strappy top for a while now, when I picked this top up there was a mark on it and it was the last size 8 so they reduced the price down to £6 for me from £10 however since I've worn it again its stained again, im not sure if its my deodorant or not but It hasn't come out in the wash either, so if you have any tips on stain removal please let me know as I really love this top!</span></div>

<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">New Look - White Crop Top - gift </span></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This was a gift from my bestie so im not sure on the price. However i've been looking to pick up a top like this for awhile now I think they're basics that everyone needs in their wardrobe and works brilliantly with anything! </span></div>

<u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Primark - Sandal Shoes - £12 each </span></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I actually went to Zara to pick up a pair of strappy sandals to wear on my birthday and I couldn't believe it when they didn't have any size 6/7 sandal heels at all! so I headed to Primark as I knew they had a few styles, I found both of these in my size for £12 each! Bargin, and if you ask me they dont look anything like Primark! The black shoes are a combination of suede and a patent material. And the red are completely suede I couldn't decide which pair I loved more so I picked up both as a treat to myself! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A few days ago I and 15 other lovely blogger were invited to Benefits 'Stay Flawless' event in Orange Rooms in Southampton. We all meet downstairs and said our 'hello's' and were then invited upstairs to a private room kitted out head to toe in typical Benefit style! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We were meet by the lovely Benefit team (and some amazing Mocktails!) We all settled down and the lovely Lisa gave us a quick talk all about the history of Benefit and how its lead to what we see today on our shelves! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Next we moved onto 'Stay Flawless' Benefits new 15-Hour Primer, which will be available from 29th June for £24.50! We watched a demo of the primer and heard how Lisa used the primer during her latest fashion show and swore by its 15-hour name! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We then all took part in a little quiz about all things Benefit! I was even lucky enough to win Benefits 'The Bronze Champions' Kit! Yaaaay! We all chatted a while longer sipping on our delicious mocktails while some even more delicious nibbles were bought out!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And to my surprise and gratefulness we were all given a gorgeous giftbag on our way out which contained the new Stay Flawless Primer, Hello Flawless Foundation and a gorgeous Foundation Brush! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We all had a brilliant evening, it was lovely to meet the team and I'd like to say a huge thank you to all the Benefit team and of course Orange Rooms for leaving us fed and watered! </span><br />

Hey Guys!<br>
A few nights ago I headed out on a night out to celebrate our last few nights together at university! So I thought I would share with you what I wore on my face! Unfortunately a few glasses later I forgot to take a photo of me wearing the make up! (And if I had it probably would have looked a mess, ha!)<br>
I hope your all doing well and that those of you leaving uni for the summer are enjoying the last few weeks as much as I am!<br>
<br>
Let me know if you have any requests or questions!<br>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">While I was in the lovely city of Paris a few months back I picked up a bottle of MAC fix plus on a bit of a whim. I know several people who love it, and seeing as I couldn't leave a MAC shop empty handed I picked this up for about €13 something around that. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 13px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>'An aqua-spritz of vitamin and minerals, infused with a calm-the-skin blend of green tea, chamomile, cucumber, topped off with the fresh, natural, energizing scent of Sugi. Adds radiance, finishes makeup. Spray it on. Skin drinks it up!'</i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 13px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i><br /></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I know many people use Fix Plus as something that keeps your make up in place, a setting spray. Maybe its just me and my skin, but as much as I wished it would Fix Plus does <i>nothing</i> at all for keeping my make up on, (I've yet to find anything that seriously does so!) However I do love the spray and use it for a whole bunch of other reasons.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Having oily skin I tend to powder my face often however that can often leave we that cakey, powdery look after make up. One sprtiz of this really helps get rid off all the excess powder and leaves a really natural un-cakey face, rather than looking like I've just walked face first into a powder puff! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I also love using this under my make up, so once I've washed my face I spritz this on and then apply my moisturiser, It's a brilliant way of locking in my moisturiser and I feel leaves my skin feeling so much softer once I've applied my make- up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In the past I've also mixed this with my foundation as I use Nars Sheer Matte Foundation (<a href="http://megansbeautybubble.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/review-nars-sheer-matte-foundation.html" target="_blank">review here</a>) which dries extremely quickly, giving you little time to blend it properly. I feel a spray of Fix Plus on the back of my hand or my brush and then mixed with my foundation really helps with blending it and almost buys me some more time to get it blended just right! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Fix Plus has so many uses, and Its the perfect thing to finish off your make up. The slide and lock spray on the bottle is perfect for travelling and I know this will be absolutely perfect for when i'm on holiday and want a midday refresher! I 100% recommend Fix Plus but if you are looking for something purely make your make up last all day this in my opinion might not be exactly what you are looking for.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hey Guys! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I haven't heard a huge amount about Revlon's Colorstay lipsticks (I have been living under a bit of a rock ha!) so when I say them on offer for <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Revlon-Colorstay-8482-Ultimate-Suede-Lipstick_1311648/" target="_blank">£6.99 in Boots</a> I thought I'd have a lookie through the shades they have to offer. Im going on holiday soon so I really wanted a summery, quick and easy lipstick, thats long lasting in the heat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>What Revlon Say..</i></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>Is your lipstick giving you both moisture and wear? This velvety soft formula with moisturising Shea butter and Aloe is food proof and doesn't quit. 20 Shade. Apply once and go.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The first thing I noticed was the packaging which is really sleek and compact, so perfect to chuck in my bag and go.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I picked up the shade 'It Girl' which is a pinky/coral that to me seems perfect for summer as its not to in your face, and I have to say I've fallen slightly in love with it. this is probably one of the longest lasting lipsticks I own, I couldn't believe it when it was still there after a night out. I love the colour against my skin tone (a problem I often struggle with) I think because the lipsticks aren't super pigmented they are nice and subtle, however you can easily build it up. The only one down side is they can be slightly drying and almost like they are sitting on top of your lips though so if you do suffer from dry lips I would advise putting a lip balm on first.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A quick side note, im finally done with all my uni work, im currently working my way through a summer course and in a month i'll be free for the summer! So now I've got some more time on my hands I thought I would bring you a quick post! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">One of the <i>best tips</i> I can give to some suffering with <i>bad skin</i> is to regularly clean your make up brushes, it <i>unbelievable</i> how much bacteria and dirt sits on them, which obviously can lead to more and more spots. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">If I ever have a <i>breakout</i> the first thing I do is wash my brushes (after caking the spot in spot remover!) Not only does it help my make up go on better on top of those nasty spots, but also actually controlling the break out and stopping it spreading to other areas of my face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I know a lot of people use different things to wash their brushes, but I normally use my regular hand soap as we tend to buy soft hand soaps with a slight scent and something like jojoba butter in them. At the moment I'm using a <i><a href="http://baylisandharding.com/hand-wash-and-lotion/hand-wash/Jojoba-Silk-Almond-Oil-Cleansing-Hand-Wash_2" target="_blank">Baylis & Harding Jojoba, Silk & Almond Oil Cleansing Hand Wash</a></i>. I feel they work just as well as baby shampoo and they leave my brushes smelling and feeling <i>amazing</i>! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Last Wednesday myself and some amazing bloggers went down to Benefit in Bournemouth for the launch of their new product '<u><a href="http://www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk/product/view/fakeup" target="_blank">Fake Up'</a></u>. I've been to this Benefit before and have meet some of the girls that work their already so it was lovely to go back and be greeted with smiles and open arms! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> Alyson who coordinates Benefit throughout the South West was all geared up and ready dressed in her Sherlock Holmes outfit and gave us a run down of the product, while testing it out on the lovely Sophie the manager of the store! We we're greeted with cakes, sweets and wine and then settled in for the talk! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Benefit have been working on 'Fake Up' or years, working alongside developers and a testing panel to make it perfect. Benefit say that Fake Up is a <i>hydrating crease-control concealer, </i>perfect for your under eyes, which are all major things that we all look for in concealers so a good start! </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I describe Fake Up as <i>a concealer with a twist</i>! The product has a concealer centre as you would normally expect to find but with fake up you also has <i>a hydrating outer ring</i>, containing <i>vitamin E and Apple Seed extract,</i> which gives your skin all the hydration your under eyes need!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">While we we're at Benefit Alyson also showed us other ways you can use Fake Up, from <i>highlighting</i> to <i>contouring</i> this baby seems like an all rounder! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Later we all got ourselves matched up, which was something I was looking forward too. Fake Up comes in 3 shades. In personal experience I never <i>ever</i> fit into 3 shades, so I was looking forward to seeing for myself just how well Benefit cater for us darker ladies! And I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, the<i> colour match</i> was very good, and a colour I would happily use as a under eye concealer. Alyson told me ( I think im remembering this right) that Benefit had specially produced Shade 3 for darker skins and had removed red tints which wouldn't blend natural with our skin tones. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">To start with I wasn't sure about Fake Up, the coverage didn't seem enough for me under my eyes, and I felt like after I'd applied more that my under eyes looked sweaty (only way I can think to describe it!) But I've learnt that before I buy products I need to try them out for myself! So I had a play and found that after a few tries I liked the look of it, with the help of some powder to mattify the look! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I'd booked myself in for my first ever <i>Brow Wax & Tint </i>(Which I had today and thouroughly recommend going if you have a Benefit Boutique near you, the staff are amazing and so nice!) and told myself that if I still liked it then I would pick it up! So I went back this afternoon and had my brows done and a full make over afterwards, and of course I still liked Fake Up and of course I picked it up! (I will do a full review later!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I know this has been an epic read, but Benefit put so much time and effort into making events such a good time that I really had to! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Let me know if you guys have any questions! </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Firstly I don't think I mentioned this in my last post but I just want to say a hugeeee Thank you as I recently hit 500 followers! Its so crazy to think 500 of you read what I write! So Thank you! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Right, now onto the post! I was recently contacted and asked if I would like to review A few bit from John Frieda's range Frizz Ease. Although I do religiously use my Kera Care Shampoo and Conditioner (you can see my review of that range <a href="http://megansbeautybubble.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/review-kera-care-haircare-range-shampoo.html" target="_blank">here</a>) I do use a few bits from Frizz Ease already to style my hair like the 3 day straight, which I love. So I was more than happy to mix it up a bit and try something different. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The first thing I noticed after washing and drying my hair with these two was how soft my hair actually was. This is something I missed when I started using my Kera Care stuff, although I know it does good for my hair, its never left amazingly soft, whereas with this it really did. It was quite easy to style my hair as well, almost like my hair was just a bit more willing to comply. However after using these several times I still have to say I prefer my Kera Care Shampoo and conditioner, other than the superficial stuff the actual quality of my hair was a lot better when I was using my other shampoo and conditioner. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I use this on my hair when its dry and whenever its looking a little frizzy and I really feel like it tames my hair. You only need the smallest amount, too much and you just end up looking all creasy. I feel like it controls my hair and If I'm wearing my hair straight or in style then I seem to always have this in my bag with me just incase. Out of the three things I received this was definitely my favourites and the one I will repurchase.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Although I liked the Shampoo and Conditioner and I think they do they're job well I just don't think they did enough for my afro hair, but they would probably work brilliantly for other people. I'm sure I will use up these products and keep them if for some reason I don't have my normal Shampoo. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">For ages now I have longed to try a clarisonic, (maybe just to try it!) but I don't see myself forking out the £100+ price tag any time soon! So when I spotted the <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/No7-Beautiful-Skin-Cleansing-Brush_1304042/" target="_blank">Skin Cleansing Brush </a>in boots on offer for just £15 I couldn't turn it down! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I'm quite lucky in the fact that I don't have awful skin, I get spots but I wouldn't call myself acne prone. However I felt a few months ago my skin got pretty bad and my cheeks especially suddenly hit a new level. Since then i've been quite obsessed with skincare and trying new things to try and help settle my skin down. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My first impressions</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> The first time I used this I paired it with No7 foaming facial wash, big mistake. I put this on my skin first and then for some reason decided to use the cleansing brush, I ended up with facial foam everywhere! Second time round I paired it with my Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish, which was much better, although can be a bit messy at time! I found it quite an odd sensation as it swirls your skin with the brush ( The only technical way I can think to put it!) it also pulls in your hair around your hairline so I recommend a hair band. It can feel quite abrasive, so I can easily understand why this wouldn't be recommended for sensitive or very dry skin, I think its just to harsh. The brush comes with two speed settings and I even find it to harsh on the second setting on the majority of my face. However when I had finished my face felt so clean! All traces of make up and dirt gone. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A month down the line</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I've taken to using the Cleansing Brush twice to three times a week, just because I don't want to over exfoliate my skin. Since keeping to this schedule my skin has changed dramatically, whether this is down to good timing or not only time will tell. The spots I felt on my skin have cleared up almost completely, and I haven't had any real spots since then. Normally I get the odd monthly batch of spots but even now they seem more controlled and they clear up a lot quicker.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Overall</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Firstly, I have only been using this a month so (although I hope not!) a lot my results could just bee good timing and I haven't been using it long enough to call it a 'wonder product', however I really feel the brush really helps work my cleanse and polish into my skin and that it has a bigger impact with the brush, along with leaving my skin feeling so much cleaner and fresher with no hassle and so quick. The only thing I wish was that it came with something to cover the brush head as to me it feels a bit unhygienic leaving it sat open, but still I love it! I think the Cleansing Brush is a brilliant cost effective alternative to the Clarisonic and I'd recommend anyone thinking of getting the Clarisonic to give this a try first!</span></div>
