Soleil Tan De Chanel ¦ Review ¦

Welcome back everyone, for today's blog I have decided to finally give you my thoughts on:

But First of all, I think we all need to take a second and just look at the packaging! I am such a sucker for the Chanel packaging it pulls me in every time... literally every single time. I even hate throwing away the box this amazing product comes in! 


If you haven't heard of this product before, then I should let you know it is a cream-gel bronzer. An amazing one at that! Even the name "Bronze Universal" speaks no lie. I have fairly pale skin, so I was slightly hesitant whether I should purchase this product, especially for the price, retailing at £31.00 therefore it is a bit of a splurge product! But I would certainly say it's worth every penny!


Once you remove the lid, you will find another clear top, again with the chanel logo. Gorgeous as ever! This is just to protect the product to help the product last longer, being a cream product they can dry out if not looked after! I doesn't seem to be having any problems with the product I've had mine since June. 


A little goes a long way with this product, which is another pro with this product, makes paying that bit more for it, that little easier. Again like I said before the colour of the product is like it says on the packaging universal! It blends amazingly well, and it is build able so perfect, for someone like me with pale skin, it means I can start with less product and add if I feel necessary, although normally a quick swirl in the pot with a kabuki brush is enough to do my contouring. 


As you can see from the below picture that their is hardly even a dent in the product and I've been using this most days since I got it in June. So it gets a huge thumbs up from me even if it was expensive.


It's a product I would say, if you can afford it, then you need it in your makeup bag. It's amazing, it can be used both on top or under your foundation, even without any foundation at all, just to give your skin a sun kissed look! I am in love with this product. 

I shall be doing a review/demo video for you guys soon so keep an eye out for it on my youtube chanel linked at the top of my homepage, or follow me on twitter for regular updates!

Have you tried this product? What are your thoughts, comment below!

Organic Elements p.m. > a.m. Skin Feeder ¦ Review ¦


Hi everyone, Today's review is on my current night cream! It's not one I've heard of on the high street, I actually came across it at my local beauty salon Pure Beauty, Welshpool, UK.

The brand is Organic Elements, logo symbol Oe.


I couldn't actually find any other reviews online! So I may be the first!! 

The product is quite expensive, pricing at £40 I think. So it's one of the higher end products, which is why I am quite shocked to have never heard about it before. But I believe the product may be supplied to salons only, so that could be a reason. 



The cream it's self is quite thick, so you don't need a lot of the product at all! It's very hydrating but doesn't leave that sticky, over moisturized feeling on your face. It very much soaks into the skin immediately, but still leaves your skin feeling amazing and hydrated!


I have been using this product for quite a while!! The pot comes full with product! I think I've had this in my life since June and it still hardly looks like I have been using it! So I totally think the price is worth it. When I wake up in the morning my skin feels great, refreshed and "awake". I also Love applying this after I have used a facial peel. Overall I'm happy with this product!

NEW Mocha Latte ¦ Avon True Colour ¦ Review



I have recently reviewed the Avon  True colour Island Breeze eye quad however this is their older palette, they have now released a "newer" version of the palette!



Whats new about the palette?






I only brought one of the palettes, and even that was hard, as their is so much choice! So I went with mocha latte. I'm so happy with my choice. I really love neutral colors and wearing lots of browns, so this palette is a perfect "quick" go to palette.



As I said before the palette comes with easy to follow step by step number coding on each shade, their are 4 steps. brow bone, accent inner color,  outer corner, lash line.

Here's a close up of the palette and which one does what they are for:



 Swatches are below, as you can see the highlight color you can't really see very well, but as a highlight shade that's good. But shades 2-4 are amazing. They are velvety soft. Shade 3 is a beautiful shimmery tone, and has great pigmentation. It's just beautiful for Autumn/Fall.



I am so in love with this palette, in fact I am certainly going to buy some more of these!! What do you guys think of the new avon palette? I shall be uploading a video on this look when I get time to film it for you :)

Island Breeze ¦ Avon True Color ¦ Review

Recently I have become quite an Avon fanatic. And been purchasing a few things. I can happily say more than a few things have caught my eye! But I majored to re frame from buying almost everything I liked the look of!!

Today's review is on the "older" version of the true color eye quad that avon sell. They have recently re launched the true color quad, with more vibrant colors and in my opinion a better layout. I'm hoping to review this for you once this review goes up!!

I brought the Island Breeze eye quad, I fancied something different, and the darker shades scream autumn/fall to me!

The packaging it's self is quite big, but big is better for me as it means I can't loose it! It also has a really nice large mirror inside the quad, Which is really useful.

Here is the quad I purchased


I just love these shades, for the autumn that has suddenly hit us here in the UK like it's been here for a month!! 

Here are some swatches of the shades. 


I thought the pigmentation in the shades was really good, even in the 2 lighter shades. Colors are left top and bottom then right top and bottom. They all seem to have some shimmer to them, but I darker teal/emerald color looks the most matte with the least shimmer!

Overall I can not wait to use this palette for autumn, I've been feeling the need to transition from summer to fall.. so why not start with my eye makeup! Hopefully I can do a tutorial for your guys using this palette, raise your hands if you'd like to see one?! .... o wait that doesn't really work on here, well just comment down below then!! 

Hope you enjoy the blog, it's short and sweet, but to the point. I can not wait to review the new true color quad I have received! I love the layout even more!! 

Here's my video on my first Avon haul .. Watch to check out what other goodies I got!!
