REN Pore Minimizing Detox mask & REN Glycolactic Skin Renewal Peel Mask





1. REN Pore Minimising Detox Mask – I have been in search of a clay mask that would draw out impurities and excess sebum that may cause blackheads, but at the same time not stripping my skin and making it feel dry after use like other clay masks sometimes do. This one makes my skin feel really clean and refreshed after using it, also my pores do seem to be looking less visible. I apply it and let it try but they recommend that you rub it off with your fingertips, which i did do and it seems to work as a gentle scrub, after you rinse with water. Product contains French clay and red tea which sounds interesting. I bought mine from Space Nk it Cost £17.50 for 50ml

2. As i really loved the clay mask from REN i wanted to try another product that would help even out my skin tone and work as a scrub but without scrubbing as my skin is very sensitive. The REN Glycolactic skin renewal peel mask contains lactic and glycolic acid that gently removes dead skin, it is a gel consistency which looks orange in colour and has an amazing apricot/orange jam smell. I apply the mask for 10 minutes which it says and then rinse with warm water, but sometimes i like to leave it on for 30 minutes. My skin looks so glowy and baby soft afterwards. I love it and think this product would work well on any skin type. The pump bottle is very convenient too. Cost £28 for 50ml

Maybelline - The Falsies Volum Express Mascara


What attracted me to this mascara was the packaging, so i thought might as well give it a go as i was running out of my beloved Loreal Voluminous mascara.
The brush is curved and grabs all the lashes making them look nicely fanned out, the consistency is rather liquidy so if you want a more dramatic look you have time to build it up before it gets clumpy or flaky. I do like this mascara for everyday use but it takes some time to build to the volume i am used to and i think the effort it takes is not worth it, plus the colour is not a intense black which i prefer, so i will be sticking to my Loreal for now.

Winged eye liner


Winged eye - I used Rimmel Exaggerate Liquid eye Liner. Starting from the middle i laid the brush flat and pulled gently towards the end of my brows as a guide, I then done small and thinner strokes towards the inner section of the eye.
