Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara review!

Elizabeth Arden's Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara is the mascara that 'volumizes, lengthens, curls, and strengthens your lashes.' Could a girl ask for more?!

 

Not only does the 'Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing' mascara volumise, lengthen and curl, but it also helps strengthen lashes too with it's special ingredients that include carob tree extract which strengthens and protects the lashes. If the mascara is used daily it will overall improve the condition of the lashes! Making them longer and thicker and minimizing lash loss.

 

I am so impressed with how my lashes look after using this mascara! The transformation of the lashes is instant and has a long lasting result as it doesn't smudge or flake. The mascara curls lashes, lengthens them and gives a voluminous full look with an eye-opening effect. The jet black colour defines my lashes giving them a dramatic effect that looks natural. 

 



Here is what I had to work with! My lashes are quite long but need just what
 Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara is offering!



Even after one coat my lashes immediately look lengthened and defined!



After two coats of the mascara my lashes are definitely lengthened! I did find that the
mascara started to clump after two coats.



 My lashes are naturally long but I are quite thin and need a good mascara to define them and I think Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara done just the job! As you can see from my before and after photographs, my lashes immediately look more awake, defined and needless to say enhanced! I personally think that one coat of mascara is more than enough. I found that two coats clumped my lashes and ruins the separated appearance that one application gave my lashes. The best thing about this mascara is that it stays put all day and I never have to re-apply!

The brush isn't too daring to use either. The unique brush is thin and long that coats each individual lash to create maximum effect!  

 

VERDICT - At £21, Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara is very pricey but it does it's job perfectly! My lashes look immediately curled, lengthened, lifted and enhanced! The result is instant and most importantly it doesn't budge! The mascara doesn't flake or smudge meaning I don't have to re-apply during the day. I found that one coat done the job perfectly as two coats made my lashes clump a little. The brush is amazing too. It coats each individual lash in one sweep to create maximum effect.

 

Thanks to the special ingredients used in the formula, the mascara also protects my lashes. If the mascara is used daily, the lashes naturally strengthen, curl and moisturize so overall the lashes will naturally appear more healthy and bold.

 

Overall, I would recommend Elizabeth Arden's Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara to everyone! The mascara does exactly what it claims to do along with lasting, beneficial results! What could more could a girl ask for?

L'Oreal Infallible Foundation review!

This foundation promises to fights the signs of make-up melt down while lasting up to 16 hours. I had very high expectations for this foundation as of the brand name, the expensive price of £12.29 and after reading rave reviews. I thought I would give this product a try. Unfortunately, this is probably the most disappointing foundation I have ever bought. 

 

   

There are 8 shades of this foundation. I chose shade 125 in Natural Rose. If you are pale I wouldn't recommend this foundation because the shades are quite dark and tan.

 

The packaging is nice and straight forward. However, the bottle is way too small for £12.29 in my opinion. The foundations comes in a sturdy glass bottle with a handy pump dispenser. The dispenser allows me to the right amount of foundation out while being easy to do without mess. The foundation has a pleasant light floral scent. Sadly, I think the majority of positives for this foundation end here.

 

L'Oreal Infallible Foundation has a very think consistency that feels mask like on my face.

 

The consistency of this foundation is thick. Really thick. This would be good for someone who wants to hide all of their imperfections but I was worried in case the foundation applied cakey and heavy. However, once applied I was surprised at how light the foundation felt but this feeling wasn't to last. It started to feel thick on my face through out the day almost 'mask' like!

 

The colour is horrendous. It goes on orange! I had to be very careful to cover the whole of my face in this foundation so I wasn't left with 'tide lines'.

 

Before using L'Oreal Infallible Foundation.

After using L'Oreal Infallible Foundation.

 

This foundation is not for those with oily skin. Beware of this foundation as it makes the face feel horribly thick with grease! It is so greasy is almost feels like this foundation is sliding all over my face! I dread to think what this foundation would be like in a humid climate or in the summer. Eventually, this foundation completely melted off my face in hours, before accentuating my pores and making them appear huge. I actually think this product clogged up my pores and make me break out more frequently than usual.

 

 

VERDICT: This is a complete waste of my money and perhaps the worst foundation I have ever purchased. The coverage is awful as it applies almost semi-matte before turning into complete grease. It felt like a mask was on my skin and felt uncomfortable to say the least. I'm not sure if this foundation would work with other skin types but this a no-no for anyone with blemish prone skin. From my experience with this awful foundation, it may be more suited to those with dry skin.  

 

If there is any benefits to this foundation they are very slim. The coverage is average, the bottle has a nice pump and the foundation comes in a range of shades.

 

Disadvantages of this foundation. The colour is orange, greasy feeling on the skin and makes face look very oily, heavy and uncomfortable and clogs pores to cause break outs. The staying power is awful as well as the foundation slides off the face after a couple of hours. L'Oreal Infallible Foundation meets absolutely none of it's claims.

 

This is the biggest disappointment. I want to warn everyone of this foundation. Don't purchase this complete waste of money! The only place my L'Oreal Infallible Foundation is going is straight into the bin!

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Colour review!

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Colour is specially designed for coloured hair in desperate need of attention and care. The conditioner is an intensive treatment to replenish and revitalise your colour and condition of your hair.

 

After reading the rave reviews about this conditioner and Aussie in general, I was really looking forward to using this product and at £4.99 I decided I couldn't go wrong!

 

 

I have dyed blonde hair that is manageable but I am always on the hunt for products that will keep my hair in the best condition possible and Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Colour conditioner does the job perfectly!

 

The '3 minute miracle' has a juicy, fruity formula revitalises and replenishes coloured hair making sure you have healthy, glossy hair with plenty of shine!

 

What I love about Aussie's 3 Minute Miracle Colour conditioner is the thick and creamy consistency that smells absolutely delicious! A simple squeeze of the bottle gives you enough product to apply all over clean wet hair. The conditioner washes out easily leaving no residue and doesn't leave my hair feeling greasy. It isn't called '3 Minute Miracle' for nothing! You only have to wait 3 minutes and voila! Your hair is left with a silky, smooth refreshed appearance.

 

This is really like any other conditioner. It is applied onto wet, clean hair after shampooing. A little blob really does go a long way but if you're like me, you will want to generously cover the whole head in a big splodge of Aussie to make sure your hair is getting the condition it needs! I pay a lot of attention to the ends of my hair.

The texture is thick and creamy, very much like any other conditioner and stays on the hair without dripping.

Three minutes was enough for me and I washed the product out of my hair. Already my hair feels incredibly smoother and silky with no knots or tangles. I was seriously impressed. My hair dried normally but much more glossier and sleeker than previously. My hair so much more easier to manage. The colour of my hair seem to look brighter and fresh while also looking in great condition! 

 Another advantage of using Aussie is that the beautiful peachy smell stays on the hair!

 

VERDICT - This is an absolutely wonderful deep conditioning treatment and at such a great price of £4.99! Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Colour does exactly what it claims to do. It conditions hair, making it shiner, silkier, smoother and keeping coloured hair looking its best!

For such a heavy conditioner, this does not weigh my hair down at all. There is no residue left on the hair once washed away and my hair is left feeling clean and fresh for days. This treatment can be used whenever you please but I personally only use it 2-3 times a week for a special treat. I honestly can't say a bad thing about this conditioning treatment. This is a must-have for anyone with coloured hair!
