I’ll start this review by saying that I have never tried a powder foundation - I’ve always been a liquid girl. But, seeing the accolades for Nude by Nature online, I was pretty excited to try my free sample.
I started by cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing, and applying the Perfecting Primer (which made my pores much smaller), then I applied the loose foundation. I LOVE the packaging first of all - the netting gives you the ability to control how much product goes on the brush without it caking on. The foundation is easy to apply and surprisingly reduces a fair amount of redness. It feels like I’m wearing nothing but my skin looks flawless! Bonus - there’s very little fall-out, so you don’t have to worry about leaving a smudge on your shirt :) I would rate this foundation 10/10!

I have always had huge pores on my face, and no matter what I try, they never seem to get any better. When I was sent this product for free, I didn’t have high hopes because I’ve tried primers before without much luck. But, I tried to keep an open mind when I saw how much the primer would normally retail for - more than I have spent on primers in the past.
I had already cleansed, exfoliated, and moisturized my face when I decided to use the primer. I put it on half of my face, and I instantly saw a difference! I couldn’t believe it - my skin looked automatically smoother and softer. I wish they had sent me a bigger bottle because I never want to run out of this stuff! I would 100% recommend just trying this product - it might change your life, or at least your makeup routine!

Lipton Summer Fruits Herbal Tea

I got this tea as a free sample, but I think I will buy more of it in the future. I love a good, fruity tea, but I was just a tad disappointed with this one. It seemed to lack some flavour depth (maybe needs more of a raspberry profile?), but nevertheless, I did enjoy it. Maybe I'm a bit too fussy, as all my friends said it was delicious. I haven't tried it as an iced tea yet, maybe that will help me enjoy it even more :) -

I got this tea as a free sample, but I'll definitely be buying more in the near future! First of all, when I opened the package, the smell was incredible. Peach and mango are two of my favourite flavours, so I'm not surprised I loved this tea! It's super refreshing as an iced tea! -

I'm a sucker for lipsticks, lip paints, lip cremes - you name it, I have tried it. I bought this NYX product at my local drugstore - one of the main reasons I bought it was the lovely range of colours they had available, and the price point (about half of what I'd expect to pay at Sephora). I bought the colour called Squad Goals which is a nice pink-mauve colour (similar to Delish from Tarte). It's not a lip stain exactly, so it's not smudge-proof, but the texture is unbelievable. My lips are SO soft. It's not a product that will dry out my lips. Plus the colour is reallllllly nice - I just put it on at work and my boss immediately complemented me and asked me where I got it. Will 100% buy again! -

I don’t normally go for ginger flavoured tea, however I have a nasty cough right now. This tea is so soothing on my throat, the flavour is not too powerful, but still complex. When you drink it, it tastes just like lemon but it leaves a lovely... +
I don’t normally go for ginger flavoured tea, however I have a nasty cough right now. This tea is so soothing on my throat, the flavour is not too powerful, but still complex. When you drink it, it tastes just like lemon but it leaves a lovely note of ginger after you swallow. I would continue to drink this, hot or iced! -

I am a huge fan of Tarte cosmetics, and especially love their quick dry matte lip paints because they are moderately priced, have a huge range of colours, and they last all day. There is no exception when it comes to my latest purchase in the shade Bestie. It's a warm pinkish-taupe that dries into a very flattering shade for my skin tone. It's perfect for fall looks - I am obsessed with creating an ombré look with Bestie and Bling!
Tarte is a huge staple in my beauty routine, and I can use it guilt-free as many of their products are vegan and gluten free - try one, you will not be disappointed.

I bought this in a Sephora store on a whim, as I had always used drugstore branded concealer and wanted to see the difference in quality. The first time I used it, I used wayyyy too much and it looked very cakey, however I was used to a more watered-down product.
Since, I have only needed to use a tiny dab of the product to completely eliminate the dark circles under my eyes, any redness in my cheeks and nose - I am so glad I bought this product. It blends very easy and has super high coverage.

CND CREATIVE PLAY Top Coat
This top coat is perfection - it’s an extremely smooth formula and takes no time at all to dry. I’ve been wearing my nails for a couple of days and I have very little chipping so far, something that usually happens on day 1 for me!

CND CREATIVE PLAY Base Coat
I love how this is a milky colour instead of clear - I feel like it will further prevent staining from the red lacquer I received with it (Crimson Like It Hot). Next to zero drying time, super easy to work with, this base coat is to die for!
