REVIEW: VASELINE SPRAY & GO

The reason this product stood out for me is simply because I'm a lazy person, and I'll be the first one to admit it. I really do try and moisturiser my body as often as possible but I just can't be bothered to wait around and let it soak in, I'm just too impatient, so this product was basically leaping off the shelves at me.

Vaseline Spray & Go comes in three varieties: Cocoa butter, Aloe  Vera and Oat extract.

The reason I chose the Cocoa butter one is purely because of the smell. I loveeee anything that has the cocoa scent and it only seemed natural for me to give this one a whirl. I have to be 100% honest and say it's also because of the packaging. As I've said before, I'm a sucker for packaging and the other two types didn't really look as nice as the cocoa butter one!

Anyways, lets get on with the review. 

This product is ideal for anyone like me, too impatient to hang out, doing that silly little dance after a shower in an attempt to get my moisturiser to soak in. Let's be honest, when you see a moisturiser claiming to soak into your skin almost instantly, it's almost impossible to believe. This however does exactly that, soaks in almost instantly.

I love how this product does exactly what I says it will. It's a good quality moisturiser that soaks into my skin within seconds of application. All you need to do is spray a light mist of the moisturiser over your skin, rub it in quickly and Bob's your uncle, you've got soft skin with no trace of that horrible greasy feeling.

Personally I would recommend this version of the Spray & Go moisturiser on the grounds that it is the one that I have tried and loved, but obviously if you're wanting to give it a go I would definitely say to go with the one that is most suited to you.

Gone are the days of greasy limbs, say hello to soft skin in seconds!

Vaseline Spray & Go is available In Boots stores or boots.com for £4.99

Coldplay - Yellow

Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons - December 1963

Lily Allen - Naive 

Philip Phillips - Home

If you only had a month to live, what would you do?

I hate thinking about stuff like this because I'm quite a spontaneous person, so the idea of knowing what would happen scares me! In all honestly, I wouldn't live my life any different to what I am now. I'm really happy with the direction my life is going in at the moment, but I've always wanted to go on a hot air balloon, go paragliding and visit New York and Rome - so I'd probably cram all of that in!

What is your favourite movie?

I'm a massive chick flick fan but no one can doubt my love for action films so I'd say my favourite film would either be Snatch or James Bond Skyfall.

Where is your favourite place to go shopping for clothes?

I really do shop all over the place but in terms of high streets, I really love Oxford Street and Covent Garden but in terms of actual shops, I love a bit of Topshop, ASOS and Urban Outfitters.

What is your favourite brand of make up?

Prepare yourselves for the massive shock of the century...or not because I'm really predictable but I love MAC for my high end and Rimmel for my high street brand. My makeup collection is mainly these two!

What ONE make up item could you not leave the house without and why?

Hands down foundation, it just hides a multitude of sins and gives me so much more confidence.

What is your biggest accomplishment so far in your life?

I would university. I was genuinely shocked with how well I did at A Level, securing my place at my university and getting a 1st this year! I may have only just completed my first year of uni but I'm proud of myself for how it's gone so far.

What is the first thing you notice about people?

Mouth then their shoes. Not entirely sure why I look at peoples mouths, it's just habit. As for shoes, you really can tell a lot about someone by their shoes!

What are your hobbies?

I don't really have any hobbies apart from blogging!

What is the furthest you've been from home?

I'm taking this question to have meant alone, and in that case it would be the South of France five years ago. I'm really fortunate to have a close bunch of friends and family and straying away from home alone has always freaked me out!

What is your number one on your list of things to do before you die?

Like I said earlier, there's plenty of things that I'd love to do before I go but I'm quite happy just going with the flo. I've learnt a lot in the past year but one thing thats stuck out the most is live for the moment, I'm happy with whatever comes my way and I don't intend to set out and do anything in particular.

FOTD - MY EVERYDAY 'NO MAKEUP' MAKEUP

Before I begin this post, I just want to apologise for my lack of blogging these past couple of weeks. I've just been so rushed off my feet lately but I promise I'll be blogging away like usual in no time!

My everyday essential make up items are:
Garnier Moisture Match for Combination to oily skin (not photographed as it was in my bag)
MAC Face and Body in C2
Rimmel Stay Matte powder in Transparent 
MAC Blush in Cubic
Benefit Speed Brow in Neutral
Benefit They're Real Mascara
Rimmel Glam Lash eyeliner
MaxFactor Eyeshadow in Pearl Beige- used as a highlighter
NYX Lip Cream in Antwerp
Fraulein and Real Techniques makeup brushes.

These are the products that I use on an everyday basis, just when I want to wear makeup but I don't want to put too much effort in. If you ever see me on an ordinary day, you'll notice my makeup is very minimal and that's basically because unless I'm doing something special; I won't make much of an effort but I wouldn't dream of leaving my house without makeup on! I'm very aware of how bad it is to smother my face in makeup everyday but don't feel comfortable without it.

And that's my everyday essentials when it comes to my face!
Do you use any of these products? What are your essential fotd products?

NYX - GIVE A LITTLE LOVE

LIPSTICK LOVERS, THIS IS THE POST FOR YOU!

 I have without a doubt fallen in love with this product so even before I start ranting on about how much I adore it, I'm spreading the lipstick joy and seriously advising you to get on your hands on this product. NOW!

I recently picked this trio up from Very.com for the minimal price of £12 but if don't wish to purchase from Very, the set is sold online on the NYX website. I've always been a fan of NYX products so I definitely had high hopes, and they delivered. The set contains three shades; Antwerp - a coral pinkk, Addis Ababa- a fuschia pink and Tokyo- a nude pink. I'm not usually fan of pink lip products but this trio truly changed my mind.

The thing I love about this set is the formula and finished result of the lip cream. The lip cream is so easy to apply as it goes on almost like a lipgloss, just with a creamy texture, but dry as a matte lipstick resulting a product I just can't help but adore. The shades are very wearable and can seriously add a pop of colour to any face! 

I think a product like this is ideal in the current heat wave that we're experiencing in Britain at the moment as it doesn't melt like a lipstick nor does it have that horrible gooey texture that a lip gloss gives.

I'm sure it's undoubtedly clear to you all that I love this lip cream but I'm positive that if you try it you'll be the same!

Have you tried any NYX  lip creams? What did you think?

The opinions above are my own and the products were purchased using my own money.

SUNDAY POST 6 & 7 (ON A MONDAY)

How have I only just realised that I haven't done my last two Sunday posts? July definitely started with a bang for me and I've been so busy so I'm going to cram a two week catch up into one!

Image Source: Pinterest

1. This past two weeks have been absolutely crazy. My gorgeous little sister recently turned 18 (not so little anymore) so the past weeks have been manic, organising her presents and giving her a proper celebration. I don't really speak much about my sister but she means the world and more to me so it was lovely to spend some quality time together with a few bottles of vino! 

Apart from celebrating, I've been working LOADS and enjoying the sunshine! These two weeks I've really realised how much some people truly mean to me and how I need to stop wasting my time caring about what other people think and get on with life!

2. I haven't got much planned for this week. I'm just going here and there, keeping my eye out for any new products, chilling in the sun and blogging as much as possible! So basically, I'm having a chilled out week!

3. With all this sun it's obvious I've been loving a sunscreen product. The one that does the trick for me is P20. It only needs one application and it lasts all day, which is perfect for a lazy sod like me! I like how it doesn't feel greasy, blends into my skin well and obviously the fact that I only need to use it once. I usually don't stray away from anything lower than SPF 25, but my pasty pale pins need a bit of colour, asap.

4. Once again I just want to thank you all for supporting me and reading my blog, it truly means so much. I would love it if you could continue your support for me on Bloglovin and follow me my blog here!

Thanks again, have a lovely week and enjoy the sun ladies! xxx
