Primark Eyebrow Pencil review

I don't usually fill in my brows. But about 6 weeks ago; before the summer holidays i over plucked my brows and so i decided that i wasn't going to pluck or wax. I managed to keep my word to that; and only on the night before school i waxed the stray hairs. I'm still growing them and i have started to fill in my brows. I did use the rimmel london brow pencil, but it was so hard that no colour was paying off and i overall didn't like the product.
The pencil was bigger, but I have sharpened it 
So while i was on a shopping trip. I went primark to get elastic bands and other necessities. I stumbled upon these eyebrow pencils. I thought i was the shade medium but that's quite light for me, even though i have light brown hair. So i have dark and medium. The medium is nice for the start of my brows and the ends.


The very pretty primark logo
The pencil is very soft, unlike the rimmel london one. The colour pay off is amazing and really goes on smooth and doesn't pull the skin. But due to it being so smooth it goes blunt quite quick and requires a lot of sharpening.


The spool tool works great and is good to blend the product and neaten the brows. This product costs just £1 and is an amazing product for the pice. Primark have done very well and i will be re-purchasing.


Thanks for reading. Follow for more.

Rimmel London baby lips Dupe?

While watching the first episode of Made in Chelsea NY; I saw the advert for the new keep calm lip balm's by Rimmel London. It's odd how much they remind me of Maybeline's baby lips. The have introduced many shades and each one has a funky and cool name to match the shade. Each lip balm is priced at £2.99 which is the same price as the baby lips. I didn't like the baby lips so these look quite promising. I will be purchasing one very soon and i will be doing a review.

Beauty Hacks Every Girl Should Know

These are simple and life saving beauty hacks. I did some thorough research and chose some of my favourite and best working hacks. I hope you enjoy.


  1. If you run out of shaving cream then use hair conditioner. Not only do they make you legs silky smooth but you also won't cut yourself.
  2. Place Vaseline on your pulse points before applying perfume. This makes the scent last longer on your body.
  3. Use apple cider vinegar as a toner to prevent breakouts and acne.
  4. You can also use apple cider vinegar to get rid of hyper-pigmentation.
  5. Use coconut oil to shave with it also gives you silky smooth legs.
  6. Lemons are the best fruit to use for whitening teeth. Mix with bicarbonate of soda or baking soda and apply to your teeth for two minutes and brush off.
  7. Lemon juice can be used to lighten age spots.
  8. Use equal parts lemon juice and water and apply to chosen parts of your hair. Sit in the sun and wash out.BOOM. Instant highlights. 
  9. Using castor oil and vitamin e gel mixed together can grow your lashes. Just apply to your eyelashes and your lash line. Then go to sleep. do this for around a week to see results.
  10. Apply Dry shampoo to your roots before you sleep. when you wake up all of the grease will be gone.

My Summer Essentials

Summer is officially here. The weather is hot and people are going out and having quality family time. Here are my summer essentials. We all have those products we can't live without.
This is a great moisturiser perfect to give you smooth looking legs
and arms in the summer. Its great smell and smooth
texture makes you want to use it more.
Everyone needs a perfect pair of flats for the summer. And my feet have been glued to these flats from new look. They're comfortable and
stylish.
This oil not only enhances nail growth but
conditions the cuticles. This with the hot weather
is surely going to grow your nails longer.

This cup is cute and has my favourite character on it.
Julius the monkey. Its perfect for summer milkshakes and smoothies. Also, the wasps can't get in.

Everyone needs a lip balm for their dry
cracked lips and this is one is great. It contains
beeswax and Shea butter wit jojoba oil. It acts as
a barrier from the sun.

This dry ends serum is great as it is very lightweight
and really moisturises the hair follicles. it smells great
and doesn't make your hair look oily. 



The Hinari Genie comes with many attachments and blends fruit to a smooth and creamy pulp. I recommend it for avid smoothie makers and milkshake lovers.
To tackle the dry skin and protect your face
this boots moisturiser hydrates the driest of skin,
has spf to protect your skin from the sun's rays and is
good for sensitive skin like mine.

I love using this in the place of a body wash every
now and then to get rid of dead skin cells and
because it foams up it acts as a perfect body wash.
 But don't overuse.


These headphones are great. They are loud
clear and look stylish. I bought these after my brother
got a pair of red ones and I wanted my own pair, so i
used my Amazon voucher to buy these, they're only £10.99.
