Sunday Night Skincare

Every Sunday night I like to set aside some time to deeply cleanse and pamper my skin. Sunday evenings are usually when I only get some quiet and peaceful time to myself so this is how I relax and unwind after a long week.
The first thing I will do is remove my makeup. I use a face wipe to take off my face makeup and then I'll use the Nivea Gentle Effect Eye Makeup Remover to take away my eyeshadow, liner and mascara.
I've been using the new Garnier Micellar Cleansing Wash ever since it came out and I absolutely love it; I dampen my skin and then massage it into my skin. The product foams up and dissolves any left over traces of makeup without drying my skin out.
For my cleanser, I have used the L'Oréal Pure Clay Face Wash for the last few weeks and I find it so effective; if I have had makeup on I will use the Detox Mask and if I have had a no makeup day then I will use the Purity Mask. Both of these foam up when massaged into the skin, giving my complexion an extra deep clean.
After rinsing off my cleanser, it is time for a mud mask. I've been really into mask-mapping where I will use different masks on different areas of the face. I am using the L'Oréal Pure Clay Face Mask in Detox on the oily T Zone and cheeks, anywhere where my pores are more visible. I then use the Purity mask in any other areas and I'll just relax with this on for about 10-15 minutes.
Every week I give my skin a rehydration boost using the Garnier Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask. This is so convenient and hassle free, I will just apply the sheet to my face and relax back for another 10-15 minutes. After the time is up and I removed the mask, I'll rub in the leftover residue into my skin and just pop my normal moisturiser on top.
A new element into my routine is to use these Superdrug Refreshing Hydrogel Eye Patches. I pop them into the fridge in the morning so they have all day to chill and then I will just apply them underneath my eyes and let the coolness refresh and revive my dark circles and puffy tired eyes. I also put these on in the morning while I'm doing my eye makeup; they act as a guard to catch fallout while rehydrating and waking up my tired eyes.
What are your holy grail products for a skincare pamper night? Let me know in the comments below!

How To: Apply False Nails

Image
Hey guys Today I thought of doing a quick post today. Today I wanted to do a 'How To' post and this one is Applying False Nails. Even though it's easy, you need to do it properly so they look as natural as possible. And I'm going to tell you how I apply my false nails. You need: False Nails (you can get them cheap in supermarkets, makeup stores etc) Nail Glue (most nails come with glue, but you can buy glue at Superdrug for around £4 ( www.superdrug.co.uk ) Cuticle Pusher or cuticle stick Nail scissors (curved work best) Emery board 1) Begin by selecting the false nails that best fit your natural nail. It needs to be accurate because it will look more realistic. 2) Use a cuticle stick/pusher and gently push your cuticles back to avoid the nail sticking to it (which, will hurt if you take them off!!) If you want, you can cut the cuticles off. 3) Apply nail glue all over the natural nail. Be careful with the glue - it bonds in seconds, difficult to remove

MUA Cosmetics Review

Hey everyone Last week for my birthday, I went shopping and while I was in Superdrug and I  picked up some things from MUA (Makeup Academy). There are some products here I haven't tried, one product I have but not this particular name. I actually fell in love with this brand when it was a very small company when everything was £1! Then the company expanded which made me very happy and so I tried   these products and I have mixed reviews. The first product I am reviewing is the BB Cream. This is £4 in the MUA online store ( www.muastore.co.uk ) or in Superdrug ( www.superdrug.com ). I wanted a BB Cream because I find foundation is too heavy and is bad for your skin and I started to go off tinted moisturizer. Anyway, for the price in general is OK for the product. I bought Shade Medium last week and I think this is a bit too dark for me even though the medium and light shade are very similar. The BB Cream is easy to blend. For me, this is going to be mixed with something light
