Review- Sephora Crayon Jumbo 12H

 

 

 

On my recent-ish trip to Barcelona I picked up these beauties, The Sephora Crayon Jumbo 12H. The name is a little confusing but basically they are eye shadow pencils! I love anything quick and easy and these fit the bill perfectly.

The colours I picked up where Kaki, you guessed it the beautiful dark green, Taupe, the brown-y shimmery shade and Beige, the shimmery neutral light gold. When I buy make up I get so overwhelmed with the choice I always doubt my decision as soon as I have bought it! I'm like it with foundation, lipstick, everything, but with these I'm pretty please with! The only thing is I wish I got more... like a lovely dark bronze...!

The product themselves apply to the eyelid in a really smooth and seamless way. I apply with the crayon end and then gently buff out a little with a brush. I love the fact its so easy to line your bottom lashes with, just in one swipe and it really finished the look off.

You can wear alone but I have been recently using them as a base for some of my power eye shadows and adding a quick line of brown kolh pencil along the bottom as well as the crayon.

You can apply to much of these quite easily and they go all clogged up which is annoying, but I am trying to use a lighter hand when using them and they seem to be applying better. I really like the creamy soft formula and they are really gentle on my sensitive eyes. They are so long wearing even without an eye shadow primer and they do not crease one bit from my experience!

I assume you would sharpen them like any other eye pencil and hopefully they sharpen well as I am yet to try.

Overall I'm totally made up with these eye shadow crayons and I would defo purchase some again when I'm near a Sephora. We just need one or two over in the UK, but that might be a bit lethal! Us bloggers would all be very very poor!

Have you tried these eye shadow crayons?
What Sephora products are your faves?

WILATM- What I'm loving at the Mo #3

Big from Lush- This shampoo is soooo gorgeous!! I love the feeling of the salt grains on my scalp it makes my hair feel really clean and fresh. The smell of it is amazing and it leaves my hair so nice and bouncy! RESULT!!

Christmas Crafts- I'm totally over excited about Christmas already, I'm not allowed to be in full on Christmas mode until after Russ's Birthday(21st Oct) and Halloween so as from 1st November I'm in full on Christmas mode. BUT I seemed to have sneaked it in bit in early by starting some Christmas crafts. I told everyone I started early as they might not have been done for Christmas! So watch this space for some Christmas craft posts!

Miss Budget Beauty- I'm kind of obsessed with all of Mikhila's blogs and Youtube channels. If I am awake early or having a lye in with a cup of tea or in the bath I always catch up on what I have missed. I am so pleased she won a Cosmo blog award to best beauty blog as she is the BEST! defo check her out if you haven't. 

My new Phone Case- I was scrolling down my Instgram feed the other day and I came across this cute bunny phone case, I love little bunny rabbits so much I tagged Russ in it as I thought it was so cute. Clue a few days on and Russ said he had a present for me and to my delight he had bought me the case! I did not expect this at all! He is such a sweet lovely fiancé! I'm totally loving it and keep awwwing at the the cute little dressed up bunnies! This is the site he got it from!

Review- Dead Sea Spa Magik Pro Cleanser and Toner

I love Skincare and anything new I'm all over it, when I received these two new products I was very excited to open them and start using. They came at the right time really as I had a stinker of a cold and feeling very sorry for myself so ONE they cheered me up and TWO they were perfect for my chapped sore nose (from too much nose blowing) and the my dehydrated forehead from my recent plane ride to Barcelona...

I have tried lots of differnet cleansers and ways to remove my make up and I always go right back to the basics of a creamy cleanser... and the Pro Cleanser fits the bill perfectly. It's creamy, very silky, rich and perfect for sensitive skin. There is no perfumed scent to this just a really fresh and bright smell (can a smell be bright?!).

Both products contain Dead Sea minerals, plant extracts and vitamin E and B5, they contain no parabens either and Dead sea Spa Magik say "they work together to give you visible and immediate results on fine lines, quality of skin and radiance". I most definitely have seem my skin look more radiant since using these.

The cleanser was perfect for my very sore nose and there was next to no stinging which is what I was worried about from other products in the past when having a cold. It removed my make up really well with just a walnut sized amount I applied and massaged it into my face and neck. I like to do a double cleanse and this cleanser really gave my skin a gentle but deep cleanse. It left it looking and feeling fresh, clean and hydrated.

 

The toner... I LOVE the toner. After my double cleanse I poured a little out onto a cotton pad and whizzed it over my face. Toning is such an important step which from being a therapist, I know lots of people seem to forget! The Pro-Toner is very gentle and again is does not have a  over perfumed smell. My poor little chapped nose didn't not sting one bit! My skin felt cool and refreshed after using this and ready for moisturising.

I love the sleek silver and white packaging and I would most definitely clock the shiny silver box sitting on a shelf like a magpie on it's birthday! I think I would have preferred a pump bottle on the cleanser but that's just me being fussy and lazy.

I'm really impressed with this cleansing duo and they have found a definite home right next too my bathroom sink. My skin has become a lot calmer even with a few breakout here and there, I love the fact they are so gentle and they really hydrated my dehydrated skin.

If you wish to try these you can do so by visiting Shop For Spa's BRAND NEW website! and can pick these both up for £13.96 each!!

What is your go to cleanser?
have you tried any Dead Sea Spa Magik products?

WILATM- What I'm Loving At The Mo #2

Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream

I have seen these on countless beauty blogs and I didn't think I needed them in my life.... Until I saw them half price in Wilko's new beauty section sale! They had to me mine as first sniff! They smell gorgeous, so sweet and vanilla-ry I could eat them right up! The colours I got were cotton candy and fairy cake. I have been a little obessed with them at the mo, they go with most outfits and eye make up looks. I kinda like the fact they are matte. as they look a bit more subtle and last for ages when they are on! 

Autumn is here 

I love the idea of summer and the fact the days seem longer as they are sunnier but realistically I never turnout to be the beautiful summer goddess I want to be! But Hello Autumn, I'm welcoming you back with open arms along with everything you bring, cosy boots, knitwear and Halloween!

Jaffa Cakes

I'm not sure what has got me back into them but I have been eating them what seems to be non-stop! The yummy dark choc, tangy orange and oh so soft cakey goodness! They are a winner in my eyes!

The Great British Bake Off 

I have always loved this program it seems from my timehop feed! It's the mix of yummy cakes, suspence of the possible misshaps, the comedic value of Mel and Sue presenting and the queen of baking herself Mary Berry! I'm not a massive Paul fan he's cool but not as cool as Mary! But who will win this series, my money's on one of the guys but I can put my finger on who! 

What you you currently obbessed with!? 

Bye for now
