NYX Single Eyeshadow
I use the mauve shade for contouring and love it! Its a great price, blends nicely and its compact! I also use this as a transition shade for my eye looks!

This has been the best eye cream i have used in a long time!
I have very hooded eyes and while this wont (and i dont expect it to) fix them i feel it has improved the appearance. They are still hooded but not as saggy or droopy.
It has also helped massively with my crows feet at the corners of my eyes.
I do find that i i get a little in my eye or too close it can make my eyes water but i dont mind that.

This product has me torn. I like it but i dont really understand it.
I like to use it in the morning as i like a gentle scrub in the morning to get all the night gunk away. It smells nice, leaves my skin feeling soft ready for make up and it makes my skin feel clean.
What i dont get about it is the whole "it turns to a mousse when you add water". No it doesnt really. And while i dont care about it being a mousse, it says its meant to be and its not. I also dont really understand clay being in a cleanser..to me id rather have my clay in a mask or a spot treatment.
The thing that puts me off most about this product, that really makes my blood bubble; is that it leaves my white sink covered in little pinky/orangey splashes as thats the colour of the cleanser. Its petty i know but its annoying and if you have white towels and miss washing the slightest bit off your face..you're gonna get it on your towels.

Bought the shade backdraft and love it.. I am a sucker for this kind of shade and after trying it in sephora a few times i just had to have it.
They arent the most moitsurizing liquid lip ever but not the most drying either.
When they get just too dry i can slick over a clear or similar coloured gloss or balm and i doesnt totally ruin it!
Love!

I am a snacker, always have been, always will be so was super happy to test these out when i #gotitfree via ChickAdvisor.
I like a "baked treat" and while these werent the best bar or treat i have ever tasted i did like them.
I like the bar format as sometimes eating a muffin in the car or on the go can get a little messy.
I also loved that they were individually wrapped, easy to throw in a gym bag, lunch bag or grab on the way out the door without having to find a container or baggy.
Th blueberry flavour wasnt overpowering or powdery, which i sometimes find with some blueberry flavoured items.
I found them filling, more so than i thought they would be. Oatmeal does tend to fill me up though so this was a good flavour option for me.
I think the regular price point is a little high. Even though i didnt buy them this time around i wouldnt pay full price for them. Would i buy them if i wanted an on the go snack and they were on special..quite possibly.

I am a snacker, always have been, always will be so was super happy to test these out when i #gotitfree via ChickAdvisor.
Muffins aren't a go to every day or even every week snack for me as i can find them calorie laden and often not worth it. But i do bake my own, grab at a coffee shop or buy pre-packaged if the mood strikes or need an on the go snack.
These were pretty tasty. Lovely banana flavour which tasted like real bananas rather than artificial flavouring. I felt they also had a slight nut taste to them, but there was no mention of there being a pecan/walnut component.
I also loved that they were individually wrapped, easy to throw in a gym bag, lunch bag or grab on the way out the door without having to find a container or baggy.
Something i didn't like about these is that they get "sweaty", which is a pet peeve of mine when it comes to muffins. Its understandable as they are each in an individual wrapper but it did put me off a little. My boyfriend on the other hand, didn't care and really loved them.
I was also a little shocked by the calorie count. With muffins i tend to not know the calorie count as i buy in single form, dont read the label or bake them myself, i do know they are high calorie so thats probably for the best. Giving these a full look over/review i did l want look at the nutritional values however. And for such a small muffin, it seemed high.
I think the price point is a little high. Even though i didnt buy them this time around i wouldnt pay full price for them. Would i buy them if i wanted an on the go snack and they were on special..quite possibly.

Ok i am not one for box mixes on a regular basis because i like to make my own recipes and i like to control the "healthiness" aspect..but i have to admit this one is gooooood!
I buy them if i know they are good and wont turn out chalky, dry and tasteless.
This is a great quick make if you are pushed for time or just need something easy that you know will taste good.
I will buy this again for sure.
Only thing is i find that any box mix brownie type things always turn out to make a thin layer rather than a thick brownie slab, but i could adjust this by using a different sized tray.

I am a sucker for blackberry scented products! I find them not as sweet and sickly as strawberry and not as cleaning solution like as citrus.
This body wash..i love! I usually try and wait until my current body wash is near finished to buy a new one..but sometimes i cant help myself when i spot (or smell!) something new. And i do love finding new body washes and mixing it up. This was one of those times.
I dont find the scent lasts much past an hour or so but what body wash scent really does? I wish it did!
