BIO OIL / REVIEW





I can't believe another month has past and now summer is nearly here.  I feel like I say this all the time but I'm sorry for the lack of posts.. i'm currently in the middle of my A Level exams and it's been quite stressful so bare with me, I am posting as much as I possibly can. I really can't wait until I can get fully back into blogging again and styling up outfits for you guys because I love it. I'm off on holiday at the beginning of July so expect a lot of outfit blogposts coming your way then!

Anyway, I invested in the raved-about Bio-Oil just over a month ago now and I mainly use it as a face oil twice a day, in the morning and at night. As the packaging states, it's supposed to minimise scars, stretch marks, uneven skin tone and help ageing and dehydrated skin. Now I haven't personally got any of these issues with my skin apart from uneven skin tone on my face. I've heard so many great things about this product from others saying how it does a great job at getting rid of/helping stretch marks. Now I can't comment on this and tell you if it truly works for this particular area - but from using on my face daily for the past month, I can see a slight difference in my skin tone and how it's evened and balanced out in colour and I don't have as much discolouration as I used to before using this oil - which is great. However, I feel like I do need to use it a bit longer and use it on other part of my body to see it's "full effect". I have never tried a face oil before but from using this, I think i'm going to continue using it as I do feel like it is cleansing my pores well and I feel like my skin is happier and less prone to break-out of pores which is a complete life-saver. (As well I need to stop eating so much chocolate!)

I would recommend this product to anyone suffering from stretch marks, scars and blemishes. You can buy it here or from most online beauty stores including feel unique, all beauty and super drug as well as pharmacies and supermarkets.

Hope you're all having a great week enjoying the small amount of sunshine we have in the UK.

Love Lauren x

It's that time again for my payday wish list! The month has flown by so quickly and feels like yesterday since I done my last wishlist. Because I've been busy with revision for my final exams, I haven't been blogging as much as I would like so I hope you understand and I will be back with all my time focusing on blogging. So, I've gathered up some items I am loving at the moment at my favourite day of the month. Hope you enjoy x

SS15 BEAUTY MUST HAVES WISHLIST


Here is my current Beauty Must Haves Wishlist! Through this stressful exam period, I would love to try these products to help me get through so I can enjoy some peaceful, relaxing evenings just to pamper myself and my skin - but I can only dream!

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm -
I've re-used this product a few times and I really like it. It is a lovely product to use after a long day to take your make-up off and makes your skin feel so fresh and perfectly clean afterwards. I will definitely be re-purchasing this when I have the money.

Yes To Blueberries Body Wash -
An influence from Essie Button - I've heard so many great things about the Yes To range and am dying to try some of their products, especially this one. I love trying out new body washes and this blueberry scented one sounds right up my street. £8 is a bit of a stretch but I'll let you guys know my thoughts on it once I've tried it.

The Body Shop Satsuma Body Polish -
I'm a huge fan of The Body Shop brand and I've heard also great things about this body polish and how its a great one for exfoliating your skin, getting rid of all them dead skin cells and giving your body a nice revamp.

First Aid Intense Oatmeal Mask & Repair Cream -
Again, heard only good things about first aid beauty and am hitting myself as to why I haven't tried anything from the brand before. Again, Essie Button highly recommends the Oatmeal Mask and I can't wait to give it a try. Once I've used up my Sanctuary Detox Mask, I will definitely give it a go.

Ghost Deep Night Perfume -
I love a good perfume. I seem to always go towards the higher end scale for perfumes but I smelt this on my friend and absolutely fell in love with it. Plus, it is a super good price so you can't go wrong.

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara -
A raved-about dupe of the Benefit Roller Lash - really looking forward to buying this - I've seen it on so many people and have loved the way it separates the eyelashes and has no clumps and really lengthens them. Definitely right at the top of my list of beauty ideas I must invest in.

Magnitone Cleansing System -
I have always wanted to try this as I've heard amazing things about it's results. The Pulsations are to really dig deep into your skin with the cleanser to cleanse and tone your skin to the next level. I've heard so many people say it really enhances and changes your skincare routine for the better.

Benefit Eye Cream -
Believe it or not, I haven't used an eye cream before. Stupid I know! I think it's best to invest in a bhighend eye cream product that will last you a long time and give you the best results to your skin instead of a cheap one. So I'm saving up for this Benefit one as it seems like it does the job well. The reviews have been great on this product.

Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate -
This night oil isn't a cheap one but I have been looking at this for ages now and really want to try it out. I love a good face oil and want a product that will really repair my uneven skin tone and skin radiance. Another influence from Essie - what you do to me girl!

Max Factor Excess Shimmer Eyeshadow-
Perfect for a night-out or as a base for a heavy eye look, this creamy eyeshadow comes in a range of shades and I am dying to purchase the Silver and Copper colours. I love how you can wear them on your own and they look amazing with the rest of the make-up.

Let me know what beauty products have been on your wishlist!
