Real Techniques Expert Face Brush *Review*



Are you in need of new make-up brushes but you can’t afford to buy all the ones you need? Then why not try Real Techniques multipurpose ‘expert face brush’. Perfect for applying and buffing foundation into the skin to give you that flawless look (which we all want). No matter if you use liquid or powder foundation this brush works for both. The soft bristles make blending easy and quick, perfect if you’re in a rush.

Apart from applying foundation with this brush, it’s also a fantastic brush if you want defined cheekbones; the brush seems to be the right size to contour your cheekbones without going over the top and looking like a mess. If you’re not into the whole matte look and like the 'glowy' look (especially for summer) and you only want to powder your t-zone. This brush is the right size to sweep across your forehead and down the bridge of your nose without making your make-up look completely matte.

The last way you can use this brush in your everyday make-up routine is if you love using a powder highlighter, then this brush makes it easy to apply the highlighter above your cheekbones and temples in no time at all.

What do you think of this brush? Do you love it? Leave a comment and let me know!

Floral Headbands


 
There are so many different floral headbands out there, I'm sure you could find one that suits any outfit if you wanted to! If you're on a budget then try Primark, they have a wide selection for just £3! Talk about a bargain! Or if you're looking for something a bit different then try Claire's accessories or Topshop.
Tell me what you think of the whole floral headbands? Are you a fan of them or are they just not your style? 

Summer wouldn't be summer without people wearing floral headbands, and I'm so happy they're back this summer! If you're into floral headbands then you'll know that it can make a dull outfit come back to life and give it a summer vibe. Perfect if you're wearing a cute dress and you want to be extra cute then why not try adding a floral headband to the outfit?

If you don't want to go summer crazy just yet and you're not ready to say goodbye to your favourite black dress until winter, then why not add contrast by pairing a floral headband with the black dress to give it that extra pop?

Outfit Of The Day - Vintage chic

So, in case any of you who read my blog haven't realised, this is my first actual outfit of the day! The reason why I've never really done a blog ootd is because I've just learnt how to use my camera! Aha, me and technology don't go well xD

Okay, so I got the shirt from London at a London market (part of my Christmas gift from my boyfriends mum) and the reason why I love this shirt so much is because it's bold but not 'in your face' bold. I love the fact that the colours are all earthly colours and kind of gives of a tribal vibe in my eyes.

I decided to pair it with blue skinny jeans (from Topman) and would look perfect with Nikes but because I'm still loving creepers I paired the outfit with black, sued creepers :))

And, because I can't live without jewellery, I had a gold, chic necklace (Topman) and my usually rings that I wear!

I hope you guys enjoyed my very first ootd, if you did then please leave a comment and don't forget to tweet me on Twitter @ryanpaynesworld

Summer Outfit #1





Are you stuck for summer outfit ideas? They take a look at this little, cute outfit I put together, so you can get some inspiration and go out shopping! Who else is excited about summer this year also?
This outfit is so versatile; it’s sophisticated yet gives of a fun, cool vibe at the same time. The rounded sunglasses add an edgy, urban feel whilst the floral, girly dress shows your cheeky side which is perfect for summer!

When trying to look edgy yet still classy, picking the right bag is important. You have to find a bag which is edgy but still elegant. Remember a bag is part of the outfit so it has to fit in with everything else you’re wearing.

This outfit can easily been worn for a chilled out day when you’re just chilling in the sun with friends or going to grab a bite to eat but then pairing this dress with some jewellery and a bold reddish orange lip for a night out. So tell me what you think of the outfit, would you wear it?

Bio Oil *Review*


A unique blend of natural plant oils and vitamins, Bio-Oil is a multiple use product that has been clinically proven to help with stretch marks, scars, uneven skin tone, acne and dry skin. If you have any of those problems then try this product! 

I love using this after taking my make-up off because it leaves my face fresh, clean and moisturised, personally I like the fact that this product hasn't really got a strong aroma to it, so if you're the type of person who cannot stand products going onto your face at night which have a strong smell, then this seems like the product for you. If you're thinking about trying this product you can purchase it from online or Boots.

Have you tried Bio Oil before? 
Let me know what you think about this product, did it help your skin or do you feel like it was a waste of money?
