REVIEW: GOSH Eye Brow Kit Multi


Name: Brow Kit Multi by GOSH

Price: £8.49 bought instore at Superdrug.

Quick Review: Good cool toned dark grey, brown and taupe brow powders. Long lasting and great for filling in eyebrows, but seem to have issues covering empty gaps. Transparent wax not strong enough for my stick straight eyebrow hairs, and if applied too much gives an undesirable "wet" look to the eyebrows.

    Wax: Diisosteraryl Malate, Polybutene,Hydrogenated Polyisobutene,Hydroxystearic Acid,Talc, Cera Microcristallina\Microcrystalline Wax\Cire Microcristalline, Cera Alba\Beeswax\Cira D'Abeille,Tocopheryl Acetate

Break in Schedule.

Apologies for the break in schedule. I haven't been blogging due to illness and when I got back I realised I haven't properly scheduled the posts. Tomorrow's makeup review will be posted at noon as scheduled, and Thursday and Friday will have the tardy posts published.

Here's to getting back on track, and kicking the cold like a bad, miserable habit.

REVIEW: Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Pads (x60)


Name: Glycolic Fix Exfoliating Facial Pads (60 pads) by Nip + Fab

Price: Retails at £12.95, purchased instore at Superdrug during a "better than half off Nip + Fab" offer. Paid £6.47 for a full sized item.

QUICK REVIEW: Good product with a few issues, great product to dip your toe in using AHAs (chemical exfoliant). Must use with sunscreen. Easily found on the high street and online, and Superdrug would have offers on Nip +  Fab every few months or so.

Note: contains 2.8% Glycolic Acid

Project 10 Pan: October Edition and a Weigh-In




    I love the Project 10 Pan (P10P) concept - basically you select 10 (or 5, or 20! it's up to you) products and you try to finish it in a certain amount of time. A lot of people tend to hoard, forget or fall out of love with products, and for whatever reason lots of stuff that costed money just sits unused. Contrary to popular belief, this shit has an expiry date! So I'm trying to get more use out of my stash of stuff, and hopefully downsize to make room for more activities.


Coming this month...



I'm still feeling my way around this beauty blogging thing, and am introducing makeup reviews, scheduled to post every Wednesday. This month, I will be reviewing:

  • Collection Gothic Glam Lipstick in 1 Seduction
  • GOSH Eye Brow Kit
  • EcoTools Six Piece Starter Set
  • EX1 Pure Crushed Mineral Powder Foundation in M300.


Skincare products are still scheduled for every Monday, and this month I will be reviewing:

  • Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Pads
  • Freederm Oil Free Perfecting Moisturiser
  • Avéne Samples (received from their online Skin Diagnosis)
  • Cien Anti-Age Hand Cream
Photos are still a work in progress, but my main focus is getting this blogging business consistent, and improvements will come. 

Either way I'm excited. Reviewing products is an excellent way to shop my stash.
