One month later and we have a blog post, sorry about that, but here is goes...

Primers for me have always been a should I or shouldn't I buy one? I haven't seen the big fascinating on primers before but as I am broadening my make-up collection I decided to go for it. 


My friend Keira and I went on a big splurge the other day and I was very happy to pick up the Smashbox try primer starter kit. 

I had heard a lot of great things on Smashbox primers so I thought I would give  it a go. . 

First of all I love the size, trying a product for the first time can be scary, buying the biggest bottle can be pointless if you don't like the product. 


The foundation primer, I apply this after I cleanse and moisturize my face. 
This product isn't to heavy on my face and I love the feeling as I apply. I only need a pea size amount on my fingers to cover my whole face. 
I do feel that my foundation has applied a lot better on to my face and that it looks a lot smoother. There is no smell which is a bonus, and with having fairly oily skin, I love that it is oil free. 


The Under eye Primer, This has to be my favourite product out the whole kit, an eye primer has been something I have been looking for a while, I feel my eyes have been going wrinkly after I have worn my make for a long time. 
Using this product I again only need a pea size amount and dab under my eyes, I apply a little before  my concealer, it makes my concealer go on a lot easier and again smoother, then I apply it after powder to hold in place and with the touch of shimmer through it it works as a highlight. 
I don't partially have dry under eyes, but I am excited to see how hydrating it can be on my eyes..



The last product in the set was The Lid Primer, I've never been a fan of eye primers but I am very happy with this one. 
The first bonus of this product is the colour, I really love the fact that it's the same colour of foundation, I will normally forget to cover my eyes with foundation so this is just perfect. After using a lot of eye shadow I did feel my eye shadow stayed in place for a lot longer and it also made the colour stand out more. . 

Overall I am very happy with these products and would most definitely consider buying the larger size.

Let me know if you know any other good primers???

So my whole, 'I'm starting to blog more' when down the toilet! A lot of hard things have happen since then, and are still going on but I will try the best that I can to blog. 

I'm going to start with reviewing the Soap and Glory Peaches and Clean deep purifying cleaner. 

About a year ago I had a lot of  problems with my skin, I am not sure whether it was to do with Christmas and all the rich/unhealthy food I was overindulging on. What ever it was I had A LOT of break outs.
I did try a few different cleansers, although it never made it worse, it certainly never made it better. I then went into Boots looking for something else and seen that Soap and Glory had brought out a beauty collection, what took my attention where the OFF YOUR FACE 3-in-1 daily purifying cloths. I thought I would give it a go.  I am so glad I did, they cleared my skin up pretty well and I was really happy. They became an essential when taking my make-up off, repurchasing them several times.   

At the start of this year, once again my skin was bad, not as bad as last year but it was still bad. My work schedule has increased which meant I was and I am wearing make-up most days, I felt that the wipes were just not cutting it, I felt my skin felt very groggy afterwords. 

I still was on the lookout for a Cleanser but I had just not found the right one, I decided to go into boots again and check out what they had. 
I automatically went to the Soap and Glory section, and I was very delighted to see that they did have a cleaners. I was also very happy that, the cleanser and the wipes both contain Peach and Go juice extract. I knew the wipes work so seeing they included the same ingredients, made me purchase it right away!  


Day One.
I applied on my  face and rinsed of in the shower, I felt I had to put a tiny bit more on after cleaning and but this time I left  it on for about 5 minutes and then washed it off, my f
ace felt very clean! Very happy!!

Day Two
I bought a face cloth, applied, left on for about 10 mins and then washed of with face cloth! I felt using the face cloth really helped take it all off. Was very pleased with this!! All my make up came of and my face felt clean and smooth.

Day Three 
I only had a little amount of make-up on today which made it super easy for me. I applied 1 and a half pumps to my face, and washed it off. Extremely happy. 

I still use the wipes in the morning when I wake up, as part of my skincare routine and I also feel that this work well too.

Over all I am very happy with this product, very easy to apply and very good quality.
The only thing I have to say is the does not a have a distinguished smell, I was expecting it to have a strong peach smell. 

I'm very excited to continue to use this product, I hope it does good things!! 
I am however looking for some kind of moisturiser, I was thinking trying another S&G product?! 
Any ideas comment below!

Thank you!! 
Hope everyone is having a great day,
