Good things Skin care

As some of you may know I really dislike foamy cleansers and have for many years but did not know exactly why I hated them so much, OK so I knew that they were drying the heck out of my face but I just thought it was normal and that's what a "clean face" should feel like.

HOW WRONG I WAS!

In the past 3 years I have been hooked on Alpha-H skincare, it was great, worked for my skin, hydrated me and best of all they made cleansers that did not FOAM. I did a mini haul/review of some of their products the link for that is here.

However as much as I loved them I was reaching a point where I needed something cheaper since I stopped working as the uni work load increased.

So when my Alpha-H cleanser finished I went to Boots to see if they had anything that was similar to my non foaming cleanser ( I have dry/normal skin) and as I browsed I saw "Good Things".

This is what they are basically about:

"GOOD THINGS SKINCARE HAS BEEN DEVELOPED BY

AWARD-WINNING BEAUTY WRITER ALICE HART-DAVIS USING
HER YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY.
THE GOOD THINGS RANGE USES SUPERFRUIT BEAUTY BOOSTERS
IN GENTLE, SUPER-EFFECTIVE FORMULATIONS AND IS SPECIALLY DESIGNED TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR SKIN."

They also say that they are free from parabens and all the other nasty stuff :)

So I bought the creamy cleanser and the exfoliator, and both smell amazing, they are packed with ingredients like "blueberries,goji berries", lots of other things which you can see on their website .

What do I think?

Three months on so far so good I do not use the exfoliator as much because I have been incorporating a muslin cloth in the cleansing part but when I feel my skin needs a little work when haven't been wearing make up I use it.

They cost around £4.99 which is defiantly a good price to me and I will be purchasing them again.

Have you guys tried "Good things" yet?

Let me know how you guys got on

Kim Kardashian wearing traditional Arab clothes

I really love Kim Kardashian, mainly because I "like" to think we look alike and I just love what she wears and what she wears tends to suit me since we have similar bodies, skin tone etc.

So when I saw photos of Kim wearing a head scarf, face veil and abaya I was so excited ! I dont wear the face veil but I do cover my hair and I found it really sweet to see her wear it. Especially how she made it look cool and not a freakish thing like the media portrays it and I really did not like it when Dailymail.co.uk added the words "Please don't!" to the thumbnail as if she was doing something bizarre!

Some people may say she is just trying really hard to fit in and make investors and corporate people happy or whatever, but still I thought it was nice and it suited her KUDOS! KIM

Here are some photos if you didn't see them :)

Guerlain Terra Inca

This is a well overdue post about my new love....Guerlain Terracotta Inca a beautiful "sheeny" bronzing powder that can be used on face and body.
Its a powder with an extraordinary texture (it feels like cream) and applies like a dream!
I have been using it everyday since I got it which was in Ramadan(august) time, I do feel it will last along time since it is rather big.

 

 

It gives a sheen to whatever it touches I can't describe the colour its not brown or orange or golden, but more of a nude/brown/pink with a gold center in the middle, it last a long time even when I scratch my cheek.

The packaging is nice too, a wooden case that fixes together with a magnet that is a nice feature but can be sometimes annoying. I do like that it looks rather grand and doesn't look grubby like the shiny compacts.

This is my first Guerlain product that I have ever bought and I'm not sure what I think of their products I guess when my powders and foundations run out I can venture into their brand even more but until then I am happy with this glamorous bronzer.

I recommend every girl who wants to treat her self to this beautiful product you will not be disappointed :)

Luxury eyes.....

I just cannot get enough of Chanel! Their luxury pieces that cost a aloooot are pretty, classic and timeless!

Who doesn't want a Chanel bag? Unfortunately they are mere dreams to many of us but that doesn't stop us indulging in their beautiful eyeshadow quads right?

I was actually surprised about this quad I had played with many of my cousins quads before, because I never really used to lug over my makeup with me because I had developed my favorites from her collection since we used to share makeup and nearly every time I went I would do her makeup.

As I was saying the previous quads I used were not that pigmented, not that finely milled and not that buttery.I was excited to see this new addition "Quadra eye shadow 14 Mystic eyes" and was taken away! I took it out and placed my ring finger in one of the colours and I was in eyeshadow dreams! This is what a Chanel eyeshadow should feel like :)

Pigmentation: CHECK!
Finely milled: OH YES!
Creasing level: EXTREMELY LOW!

When I get a chance to buy this quad I most certainly will I am waiting to finish up a few quads to make space for this baby, but I may have to wait longer since I may need to buy the Vitalumier powder which needs a whole other post too!

I really hope I get to buy one soon because they really are beautiful!

Has anyone else tried any Chanel quads yet?
