Christmas Gift Inspiration... Billion Dollar Brows!!

I love these products from Billion Dollar Brows and the great news is they are launching in Boots across the country. Yay!! 



These are a perfect stocking filler.

The Billion Dollar Brows collection at Boots will feature brow tools, pencils, gels and powders to achieve amazing brow shapes that will transform your face. 

I've been trying out a few of these great brow products including:





Billion Dollar Brows Brow Buddy Kit. They say this is the 'most genius eyebrow tool ever' this highly innovative brow tool shows you how to customise the shape of your brows for your individual face shape and allows you to create perfectly symmetrical, beautifully shaped brows with ease and speed.
This costs €31.






Billion Dollar Brows, 60 Seconds to Beautiful Brows.
Do you have 60 seconds to do your brows? With this kit, you can add a pop of colour to your brows in one minute. 

This kit Includes two of the most popular Billion Dollar Brow products, the Brow Powder and a Brow Brush. 
The Brow Powder glides onto your brows with ease and leaves a natural looking finish. Sparse brows immediately appear thicker and fuller. 

The Brow Brush has an angled bristled end that is ideal to precisely define brows as it allows you to apply brow powder in a clean, soft line. 
The spoolie end works to blend powder or pencil for natural looking perfection and a beautifully defined arch.
This costs €34. 




Billion Dollar Brows, Brow Gel.
This Brow Gel is really great, after perfecting your brows, it holds the hairs in place for a polished finish.





Billion Dollar Brows will be available from Boots stores nationwide. Check out  www.boots.ie where additional Billion Dollar Brow products will be available online.

Tint Your Brows At Home!!

I'm forever buying products for my eyebrows, I've even tried HD brows, when I came across this in Boots Pharmacy. 30 day mascara and brow dye kit by Colorsport. 



I only wanted to try it for my brows, it's really easy to use, Instructions are so simple to follow. 

Step 1. Apply the colour solution to your brow with a cotton bud, working it into the hair, repeat this process a couple of times. Leave for 1 minute. 

Step 2. Apply the colour gel to your brow with a cotton bud, again working it in the hair, with the brush provided. 

Wait a couple of minutes and wipe off and clean with water. 

Done!!!




I actually really like this little kit, the colour grabs onto those little fine hairs and makes the brow look that little bit darker and fuller. 



This kit will last a long time so you'll get lots of applications out of it, at least 12. You can also tint your eyelashes too and get the eye protection papers in the kit. 

It costs €15 and does exactly what it says it will do. I got dark brown but it's also available in black.

Love these little DIY beauty kits.

At Home Beauty Treatments!!

At Home Beauty Treatments!!

We all do it, we buy treatments that we can do ourselves at home. So I've been trying out some great little buys. 






Sanctuary Spa, Time Reversal Face Mask. Costs €2.99 in Boots.



I love this face mask, it's a cream mask so it's doesn't dry out on your face and go hard, which I love, I always find those particular ones very harsh. This mask is quite gentle and soothing on the skin. It's a youth boosting facial, with ultra collagen boosting treatment. Leave it on your face and neck for up to 10 minutes and wash off. It leaves your skin feeling so clean and refreshed. I get two uses out of this pack. 




Keratin Protein Hask. Cost €2.50 in Pennys.



This is a great treatment for your hair, I get 2 uses out of this pack.  Brush it into wet hair and leave in for 10 mins or so and rinse out. This leaves your hair feeling really nourished and conditioned. It prevents weakness and breakage. Once a month I'd leave a treatment like this in my hair overnight. They work a treat. 




Softsole Express, exfoliating foot peel. Costs €2.50 in Bradley's pharmacy. 


Okay these are so funny, they're  little plastic socks filled with the treatment that you put on your feet and leave on for 90 minutes. Long time, yes but I know of ones you can get that need soaking for 120 minutes, so was glad with these ones. It's hard to walk around with them on so you need to be sitting for the 90 minutes. Rinse your feet when finished and wait for the treatment to start working. These treatments work over the course of 2 weeks. Nothing happened until day 5, then my feet start peeling. Yes, it was gross, but it was doing what it was suppose to, so was glad to see it working. It peels for about 5 days, you exfoliate and use your normal hard skin remover to help the process along, but the results are quite good. 

Was happy with all 3 DIY treatments, would recommend them and would buy all 3 again.

Protect & Perfect!!

I love a good face serum, if I think it's going to work I'll buy it. 

I don't want to get bad wrinkles any time soon, so I'm willing to try them all. 

I've gone for the No 7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Serum





It's so popular at the moment and is advertised absolutely everywhere, so I thought it time to put it to the test. 
It cost €33 from boots. 

I've been using this serum day and night now for 14 days. I put it on before my face cream, I also make sure it's well dried in before I apply my face cream, although it does dry really quickly, it's not oily or greasy in any way, it feels really light. 

I really like this serum, it makes my skin feel so smooth and soft. 

On the box it says visibly younger looking skin after 2 weeks.

I honestly can see a small difference, the lines on my forehead have faded slightly, which is great. Result!! 




I just love how it makes my skin feel. I'm definitely a fan and would 100% buy this product again.  I'm excited to see what it's like after 4 weeks!!

I Love Blush!!!

I wanted to try something new as I always seem to be drawn to powder blushes and i seen this cream blusher by No7.




I fell in love with the colour so I had buy it and try it out. 

Its called Pop and Glow Cream Blush and the colour is Rose Blossom. It cost €12.50 from Boots. 

The colour is just so pretty and perfect for summer. It's compact too, so easy to pop in your handbag and no brush required as you apply the blush straight to your cheeks as it's crayon shaped, then blend with your fingers. 






I applied the cream blush to my cheeks, it glides on and blends in quite easily. I blended it with 2 fingertips. I did this twice on each cheek as I like a lot of blush. It didn't take long to apply at all and I was really impressed with how it looked. 





However I did find that it wore of more quickly than my usual mac powder blush. In saying that I loved the colour on my cheeks, it was really pretty. 

They have alot more colours in boots too, so go take a look ladies, there's a colour to suit everyone. 

Happy blush shopping!!
