Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet or Souffle de Velvet??

A couple of months back I won a stack of Bourjois products, majority of which I'd not tried before. Don't get me wrong I love buying makeup, for me there is no better 'pick me up' then a makeup purchase. Bourjois just wasn't a brand I'd invested in alot. After having a good ol' play with some of the new makeup items I'd decided to put pen to paper (so to speak) and let you, my loyal followers, know what I think of the ones I've started to test.

Rimmel London Fresher Skin Foundation is the latest to entice us makeup lovers out to the shops. I filled in my details on their Facebook page and was pleasantly surprised when my sample sachet arrived on my doorstep in a wearable shade. I was super organised the other morning and got my camera setup so I could do some before and after photos to give you a feel for how this new addition to the Rimmel London family looks on the skin.

Top 3 Skincare Products | Review

Today I'm sharing with you my top 3 favourite skincare products. Over the years I've tried and tested a wide range of products on my skin, from high-end to budget. Lotions, creams, balms, oils, you name it I've probably given it a go. On my quest to find perfect harmony for my skin I came across these 3 products and I've not turned back.
