Review: Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

When this product was first advertised, I knew I would be interested. I wanted something lighter than foundation for daily wear and after trying a couple of samples of this I decided to purchase it in full size.

The packaging is a slightly rounded plastic tube. It has a simple design and looks quite plain. It also has a small wide nozzle, which dispenses the product. When you twist the cap off, some of the product does seep out a little. The formula is kind of light and wet. You get 30ml of product in the tube and I have shade Light.
This BB cream is supposed to contain eight benefits in the one tube. It should blur imperfections, feel fresh, give your skin a natural glow, compliment your skin tone, look smooth,  hydrate, protect with SPF 30 and be oil free and non-greasy.

This is the only BB cream I’ve tried, but I really like it. It blends well and spreads evenly and can last up to eight hours and then some. It gives your complexion a natural glow and makes your face appear smooth and fresh. It doesn’t feel greasy and a little goes a long way to blur any imperfections. Although it doesn’t look like you are wearing it when you have blended it in, it does compliment your skin tone and hydrates. You don’t even have to use a moisturiser before applying! The only problem I have is that I still used concealer and powder because I feel I need the added extra, but it is nice to have a break from foundation.

Overall I really liked the results when using this BB cream and it is definitely worth spending the money on. However, if I was to re-purchase I would probably get the newer Dream Pure BB Cream, because it works the same but is targeted towards blemished and spot prone skin.

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...
