Zoella Haul!!



Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog, today we are reviewing the main reason why i started my blog............. My Zoella beauty collection!! These products were kind of the reason i started my blog because they are my favourite beauty products and i was like okay i have to review this amazingness!!


The Zoella wonder hand moisturizing hand cream is the first product i bought from her range and i was obsessed with it, like i was using it every 5 minutes (literally) and i realised i was going through it too quick so i slowed down my usage haha, the bottle is rose gold (someone hold me) its gorgeous, i am obsessed with rose gold anything, like my makeup brushes are rose gold, my phone case is rose gold yeah everything rose gold, when i took it out the box i was really confused at the lid, I've never seen anything like it before and its quite small so u cant really stand it up that well on its own, the scent is heavenly, its from her classic collection so its, floral and summery. This hand cream is perfect if you have dry hands since it is very moisturizing but its also great for non dry hands, over all its very lovely and softening and smells incredible!


The soak opera bath soak and shower cream is divine, i got it in the awesome drawersome set, you can buy it signally too so if you don't want to splash out on the box then you don't have too, the bottle is a light beigey pink and is id say the perfect size for traveling, the product its self is a sheer pink and smells amazing, it is from her classic collection so its the original scent like everything in the box. I do love this product but i prefer the flowers and showers shower gel.

The creamly, madly, dreamly body lotion i love, i use this alternatively with my candy cream body lotion (which i shall get too) everytime i get out of the shower or bath, i got this in the box set and its very moisturizing and makes you smell lovely and clean (what am i on about haha) but yeah this product is the same size as the soak opera and the flowers and showers shower gel so its perfect for at home or traveling, the packaging is white with a lace pattern around the edges which is so cute. One thing i will say it has quite a strong scent which i love in a body lotion but if your more of a softer scent person this isn't the best.

Flowers and showers shower gel, first off can we talk about the name? I love it! Its so awesome haha, this is definitely my go to shower gel and i cant remember a time when i didn't use this, it smells so amazing and looks amazing!! I always use it with the Zoella shower poof thing (which i didn't take a photo of cos who wants a review on a shower poof?), it foams up really lovely and once again its the original scent and i got it in the box set, the bottle is white with light turquoise polka dots (which is super cute) and has the lace edging on it, the actual product itself is a light purple sheer liquid, and its just lovely.


The perfumes, oh the perfumes, i use these religiously everyday (not both, one at a time haha) and they are just lushhh, my favourite one is still the lets spritz one from the Tutti fruity range and ughh its heavenly, i love the blissful mistful one just as much and this one is from the original collection, these don't come in a set so you have to buy these singly but they're so worth it.
If you'd like to read more about these i wrote a whole post about them here.


Fizz bars, my new obsession (other than Matthew daddario 😍😍)  the two small ones i got in the box set but the big one i bought on its own, i haven't opened the small ones yet but i think they are both the same but in different packaging? If they smell different please let me know in the comments :), but the big one is from zoe's classic collection, i use this everytime i have a bath and it makes the bath and my bathroom smell heavenly, i wait to put it in until I've finished running my bath but that's just because i like watching it dissolve, i put one cube in the bath because if i put two im not sure if its going stink me out or something, when i opened the big one i didn't know what expect, so when i saw that it looked like a chocolate bar i ran around the house showing everyone, they are white cubes with a 'Z' on them and they are really cute.


Butter me up body butter i got in the box set, i am not a fan of thick creams, especially if they smell very rich like chocolate or something, but this is a very light smell and i actually really like it, im surprised i like it to be honest, its quite thick but it goes a really long way so you don't have to get a massive scoop of it and it lasts a very long time, you cant buy this on its own so if you want this then you have to buy the set, but i mean you get about 7 products in the box and who doesn't want that. Its got the original scent so its smells incredibleeeee, and its gonna sound weird but id rather use this on a cold day than a hot one, the packaging is adorable and once again has the lace around the edges of the lid, and it has rose gold writing so its already one of my favourite things ever, its very softening and i like it.


The Zoella kissy missy lip balm, i like this a lot, it smells great, from what I've tasted of it, its good (don't eat it, I've only tasted it where I've licked my lips) one thing i will say about this, please apply it with a mirror because it is tinted and also if you have sore lips, don't go mad and apply it everywhere because it will dye your skin, i went to sleep the other night with it all over my lips and i woke up looking like Miranda sings and i couldn't get it off, this is from the Tutti fruity range so its got a sweet fruity scent rather than a floral scent, when i run out i will probably re buy it if its still available, but over all its very nice and softening, and its also very wearable as a light lip colour to complete a makeup look.


the Zoella candy cream softening body lotion, i haven't had this that long but by the angel this is heavenly, it has little pink beads that smell incredible and it smells so sweet and fruity like blueberry and ughh this is like omggggggg i cant explain how amazing it is, like wow, just go and smell it and you'll see what i mean, the packaging is super cute with the little bow and yellow polka dots and this has to be my favourite product from the Tutti fruity range, i will be re buying.


Now onto makeup bags.


This is the Zoella eyes makeup bag, i use this for my eye products and things like that and i don't know how big it is (hahaohdear), this one id say is my favourite out of the three makeup bags i have, i love the colours on it and also i really like eyes. Not in a creepy way but you know, on the inside its lined with a beige silk but not silk sort of stuff, i use this as a makeup bag but it can be used for anything, tho unless you have a lot of pencils or something it might be a bit big but if you want to walk around with a big'ol Zoella pencil case you go for it.


This case is just adorable, i mean c'mon if you don't like this are you ok? Its a guinea pig with glasses on.
I use this case for my face products like foundation and concealer and its actually full, i have about 7 different concealers, 4 powders and 3 foundations in it and its pretty much full, i mean there is room for more but i don't wanna push it, i love the colours on it and like the eyes bag its lined with a beige silk but not silk material, its the same size as the eyes bag and can also be used for anything you desire.


The last item of the haul is this cute little makeup purse type of thing, it came in the awesome drawersome box and i use it for my lipsticks, this is full to the brim so i am gonna need to upgrade it soon and it will be used for something else, you cant buy this on its own you have to buy the box, its lined with a silk but not so silky beige material again and i love the colours a lot on this, the size of this bag is a lot more travel size friendly unlike the others that are a lot bigger.


Wow that was a looong post, i love all these products very much and they aren't all that expensive, like I've said you cant buy all these products signally so if your wanting the body butter you will have to buy the set.
Now i cant find the awesome drawersome set on superdrug so i think its been discontinued but i found it on ebay if your wanting to get it :)

All the products are listed below if you are interested in buying them and i'll speak to you soon. Xxxx

Freedom Pro Vamp Collection Review




Hello everyone, and welcome back to my blog, today we are going to be reviewing one of my favourite drugstore lipstick brands.



This is the freedom pro lipstick vamp collection, they are quite a dark collection and are perfect for autumn and the Halloween season, they range from a lovely not-to-bright red to a dark purple.

All but one are very pigmented and are very moisturizing, the stay time is quite good, though i always make sure i take which ever shade im wearing with me, since when u eat or drink it does come off and leave's you with what looks like lip liner (and no one wants that).

The other thing i love about these are they are shiny lipstick but they can also be made matte (and im a sucker for a matte lipstick) you just get a translucent powder and lightly brush over the lipstick while its still wet (there's probably a better way but that's how i do it) and it also lasts a lot longer.





When i bought these i didn't know what to expect, they were £5 for 5 lipsticks and i thought ok don't expect much but i was really surprised when i swatched them at home, and to be completely honest i want to go and buy the bare collection because they are just that good (and also out of stock -_-) , i also wasn't expecting them to be full size lipsticks but they are so that's also a bonus.




Dusk until dawn is my most used shade which is surprising since its not really my go to colour, its a pinky purply shade and i absolutely love the name of it (probably cos my favourite game is until dawn) but i tend to wear this at home the most, this isn't my go to colour if im leaving to go out to a show or something like that, i think this is a very pretty girly colour and does suit any skin tone, i never wear this lipstick if im not wearing a lot of eye shadow, i like to wear this with a gold/brown eye and it looks really pretty!



Vamp noir is my second most used shade and its a burgundy red (which is just ughhh) i love this one a lot with a very neutral eye, with or without winged liner, it goes perfect with a very bronzed skin look and i find it makes blue eyes pop just a little bit more which is strange since its on your lips not your eyes, i like to wear this one if im going into town or meeting new people, i feel like its a nice casual colour and it is my go too.





Pure vamp is just gorgeous!! Its a very red red, its not too bright and its not too dark which is great for the pin up look (which i love very much) if i wear this it will be with winged liner and my hair in a bun with a bandana around it, i will wear this if im going somewhere fancy. I love this one when its matte! I am a sucker for red matte lipsticks and this one is incredible!



Dark paradise is a purple shade, its not that dark but its also not bright violet, but i wouldn't recommended wearing a lot of eye makeup with it since its a bold lip colour you'll wanna go neutral on them eyes!

One thing i love about this is it has little specks of gold running through it which is amAZING, i prefer this one shiny since if you matte it, it removes the gold tint, i hardly wear this one since last time it was around Christmas and i wore it with a black bobble beanie (i got told i looked like a dogey Santa haha) and after that i didn't wear it again unless i was filming a music.ly.



Last but not least is intense noir, this is a very dark purple which i hardly wear, i like this shade but id only wear it around Halloween since it is very dark, one thing i do have to say about this is its not great if you apply it with the actual lipstick, its a lot easier with a lip brush since it doesn't give you that great coverage and if you try to layer it, it starts to remove it all and its an absolute disaster, which i think is kind of a let down since all the rest were perfect, maybe i just got a unlucky pack, i don't wear this shade out and about, last time i wore it, it was to a horror show and i ended up taking it off since i forgot to bring it with me and i looked like i was wearing purple lip liner and nothing else (not a good look) and me being me didn't wait to take it off, i wiped it off onto my leather sleeve and had purple smeared all up my arm and what a disaster that was.


I really do love these lipsticks but i think they are a bit dark for this time of year as we are heading into spring and its time to bring out the nudes and light pinks (which i am lacking -_-)  but these are really good lipsticks and im fussy with lip products, i do recommend them and they are very inexpensive for how many you get and the quality is amazing.

My Favorite Zoella Scent's


Hello everyone, this is the first actual post on my blog and im going to be reviewing my favourite perfumes from Zoella! 




I've had these two beauty's since Christmas and omg they are literally heaven in a bottle, my favourite one out of the two has to be the lets spritz but i do love blissful mistful just as much.



I went into Superdrug after watching zoe on YouTube for a while and i realised that she had a beauty range, which i must say is amazing, and the first thing i picked up was the lets spritz perfume and i sprayed it onto my jacket sleeve and it was love at first smell!! I really wanted to buy a bottle of it there and then but my mum said to wait until Christmas, after walking around the shop i ended up buying the blissful mistful solid perfume (which i have used up) and i fell in love with that scent too and i knew i needed these perfumes in my life.




On Christmas day they were both in my stocking and i couldn't wait to use them,

Lets spritz has got a very fruity and sweet scent and its a perfect size to slide into your handbag as your running out the door to a meeting or a shopping trip, since its such a lovely and sweet scent i used this one a lot more through the winter months and most probably the upcoming spring season, i will be wearing it through summer as well but i will be reaching for the blissful mistful one a lot more than lets spritz, personally i feel like its more of a wintery/cosy type of scent if you get what i mean, its very very wearable and im always getting compliments from people asking me where its from, it also lasts all day and i rarely have to top it up so one bottle last ages which i love.







Blissful mistful has got a much lighter scent than lets spritz, it reminds me of summer and it is a very mood lifting fragrance which i love.

Blissful mistful is zoe's classic scent and has got a light fruity/flowery fragrance which is perfect if you want to smell amazing but don't want to stink out a room full of people, just like lets spritz its a perfect size to throw in your bag and lasts all day with only a couple of sprays, i have been wearing it more this month than i was at the end of December and through January,

since its getting closer to summer this is perfect and for me its like summer in a bottle and lets face it, who doesn't want that!






These two fragrances have to be my favourite scents out there and all of zoe's beauty range smells amazing and is a very good price for such an amazing product.

The only downside for me is that i cant get the flaming security sticker off the back of the bottle but that's okay it doesn't effect how amazing the product is.



I really recommend these two bottles of perfume if you want to smell amazing but don't want to spend a lot, they last a super long time and you only have use a small amount which is perfect, because some of my favourite perfumes out there don't last that long and are quite expensive which is always a bummer.



They are only £8 each and they are totally worth it, im not 100% sure but i think zoe may be discontinuing the Tutti fruity range (lets spritz) and will be replacing it with a brand new scent! (i cannot wait) so if your thinking of grabbing yourself a bottle, id get it now before its too late.

  

You can get them here



And her whole range right here.



Thank you so much for reading and i hope you have a lovely day.

I made this blog to share my love of everything makeup and beauty and also to share my thought's with my viewers.

I have been into blogs since i was 12 and I've always wanted to make one but i never knew what to make one about, recently I've been thinking about this a lot and i've finally decided what id like to do with a blog and here i am :)

I've been wanting to make this blog for about 2 weeks now and i keep putting it off so today on this very overcast Monday morning i've decided to write my first blog post.

This blog is going to be mainly focused on makeup and beauty but i might post the odd little thing on something I've been enjoying at the time.

I made this blog to share things that i love and because i enjoy writing, i haven't done this for money or anything like that, its just for fun :)

I've started to workout more and ive started doing a little bit of yoga (i have no idea what im doing so i just make out i do haha) and i do feel alot more happier in myself and i feel alot more energetic.

I like to spend alot of my free time on youtube, i am little (a lot) obsessed, i was going to make a YouTube channel instead of a blog but i soon realised it wasn't for me and i wasn't confident enough to be infront of the camera, plus i enjoy writing more.
