Hair and Beauty Holy Grail

10 Hair and Beauty products I can't live without!

1. Tangle Teezer- £10.99
This is my life saver on a daily basis! I have incredibly thick and long hair so trying to get a brush through it without it being painful used to be a nightmare until I started using my Tangle Teezer. It's great for not only brushing your hair but creating volume too! Plus its a handy size for your handbag or even your clutch on a night out :)


2. Rimmel Brow Pencil- £2.99
I don't know whether this is just me but I never truly feel human until I've done my brows and most certainly never leave the house without them done! This is the pencil I previously mentioned in my July Favourites post but it's honestly brilliant! It's super creamy and doesn't create any harsh lines. It comes in 3 shades, Hazel, Dark Brown and Black Brown. 

3.Batiste Blush- £2.99
If you don't own a bottle of Batiste then what are you doing with your life? I really couldn't live without Batiste for those lazy days where washing and drying your hair is the last thing you want to do,so instead, you just spray in some Batiste and you're good to go! All of them smell wonderful but Blush is my favourite! It's great not only for hiding greasy roots, but also for creating volume without the back combing!

4.No 7 Concealer- £7.50

This Concealer Blemish Stick from No 7 is hands down the best concealer I've ever used. It's the only concealer I've ever found that truly conceals blemishes and doesn't just claim to. It's lovely and creamy and applies beautifully! It comes in 17 different shades so you're bound to find the perfect one for you :) The price may seem a little steep but it's totally worth it.


5. L'Oreal Micellar Water- £3.33
This is another product that features in my July favourites but it is worthy of all this attention! I use it at night to take off my make-up along with an eye make-up remover, which leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh before bed. It's super gentle and is great for those of you with sensitive skin like me. I haven't had a break out since I started using this product, so I'll continue to sing its praises.


6.Simple Eye Make-Up Remover- £1.69
I love Simple's products because they're brilliant and so affordable. They're perfect for sensitive skin types and leave no irritation and in this product's case, no redness around the eyes. This is the best eye make-up remover I've ever used and ensures I don't wake up with Panda eyes in the morning!

7. Angels on Bare Skin- £6.75
I was introduced to Lush products when my boyfriend was a Christmas Temp there a few years ago. He'd bring home free samples and often things for me he thought I'd like, to which Angels on Bare Skin was one of them. I used to have pretty bad skin a few years ago with my face being blemish free on very few occasions. This product was a life-saver for me as the lavender in the product reduced redness over night, which meant concealing my spots was far easier. Angels on Bare Skin is listed as a cleanser but is great for those of us with spot- prone skin, leaving you feeling fresh and revitalised after use. 


8. Katy Perry Killer Queen- £28.50
This perfume was given to me as a gift for my 18th Birthday and I've been buying bottles ever since! It's my daytime perfume and is my second favourite to Lady Million, but isn't as pricey! It smells beautiful and comes in the most fabulous bottle which can double up as an ornament on your dressing table. It's floral but isn't over powering and smells classy, if that's a passable statement!


9. Real Techniques Core Collection- £10.99
Before becoming obsessed with Tanya Burr,Zoella, Naomi Smart and PixiWoos, I had no idea what were deemed to be good or bad Make-Up brushes. So I thought it was about time to see what all the fuss was about with Real Techniques brushes, and I'm glad I did! You can most certainly tell the difference between cheap plastic brushes and the soft fibres of Sam Chapman's brushes. The Core Collection is fab to get you started and is worth every penny! You'll notice your make-up applies better and therefore looks better :)


10. Benefit Bad Gal Waterproof Eye liner- £15.50
You can always count on Benefit products to be high quality but expensive, but I'll always pay it for eye liner. Without eye liner, I look around 12 years old, so it's essential for me to wear it everyday! This liner is creamy and stays all day because of its water proof quality and comes with a handy smudging stick to create those smoky eye looks that we all love:)


There's no harm in buying more Make- Up ladies, no matter what anyone says!


Stay beautiful,
