Una Brennan Salicyclic Acid Anti Blemish Clay Mask Review

So I have been meaning to write this post for awhile now, I am eventually getting around to putting my thoughts about this product down on paper (laptop). I have been using this clay mask now for about 8 months if not more and I have really enjoyed using this product.

The product claims to clear out dirt, excessive oils and toxins which leads to breakouts, I have been using this for about 4 months now I have to say it is one of the most effective clay masks I have used and it really does work well on my blemishes and it does help to clear out my pores as I have very oily skin which means that I tend to have quite a lot of black heads which are really stubborn. I use this mask about twice a week and I love it as I only have to leave it on for 5 minutes.
This means that I can easily add it into my skin care routine even if i am in a bit of a hurry as I don't have to sit around for 15 minutes. I do however tend to use this more at night as I removes excess oil I find that I like to use it at night so I can go straight in with my serum and moisturiser.

I like the packaging for this product as it is a simple layout and I like that the background is a light grey with black, Bright Green and Grey text and the front is easy to read. I like that the product just tells you what you need to know.

The product is a quite thick but is really easy to apply to the face and I like to use quite a thick layer over the skin, it doesn't take very long to dry, it does tingle a little when it is applied to the skin but it doesn't tingle for long and most importantly it doesn't burn. It makes the skin feel very soft and it does help with my blemishes, and you don't have to wait around for ages for this product to work as you only need to leave it on for 5 minutes, which is great for me as I get very bored when I have to sit with a face mask on for 15 minutes for more.

I haven't noticed that much of a smell with this product, this would be good for people that are sensitive to smells.

This product would be great for oily or blemish prone skin, it might be a little much for people who have dry skin but if you following it but with a hydrating serum and moisturiser you may be able to get away with it.

I would definitely say that this mask it worth the money, it is £8.99 from boots, I think this is very good value for the money.

Graduation Ball Makeup

So I have just had my graduation ball and though it would be nice to show you what make up I wore.

I took my Nars Luminous Weightless Foundation, which might have developed into my new favourite foundation, I am in the shade Mont Blac, this is a foundation that is best suited to oily skin and it lasts for a really long time and it has very good coverage it would say medium but it is definitely buildable. I also brought my sample size of my Benefit Porefessional, which is one of my favourite primers. I also brought my benefit stay all day eye primer and my NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk. For concealers I brought my Maxfactor Colour Corrector Stick for Under Eyes and my Revlon Colour Stay in Light, this is a little yellow but it blends really well and the coverage is okay its not amazing but it does the job. For my Eyes I used my Urban Decay Naked on The Run Palette which I will do a review on when I get back from Florida, as it is advertised as the perfect travel palette, as it has bronzer, blush and a highlighter. For contour I brought my Illmasqua Hollow, which is the perfect cream contour for pale skin. I also brought my Urban Decay Subversion and Perversion mascara. For my Brows I used the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette the two darkest colours and my Maybelline Brow Drama. On my cheeks I used my friends Nars Blush (I was going to use my Topshop Creme Blush in Head over Heels). On my lips I used my Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 107 and my Ellis Faas Lipstick in the shade L103. The highlighter I used Benefits High Beam and One Heck of a Blot.

May Favourites 2015

So I haven't done favourites post in months and the reason why is  I haven'r really had that many, so I thought I would do a combine my favourites.

Bourjois CC cream:
I haven't really wanted to wear a heavy foundation this month so I have found myself reaching for my Bourjois CC cream, as it is light coverage but will still make my blemishes less noticeable. The colour is slightly dark on me but I am able to blend it in well so it is hardly noticeable.

My very beautiful red dress

Little Mistress Red Dress:
This dress is one of my favourites this month, isn't it amazing, I'm not normally one to talk about clothing but this is rather special as this was the dress that I wore for my graduation ball, I love the colour and the style as it givers me the illusions of having bigger boobs as it has a sweetheart neckline but it has a sort of mesh type fabric covered in beads which really hides the fact that I have very little in the boob department.













Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation:
I have only just bought the full size of this product but I feel completely in love with my sample and I knew i needed it in my life, this gives medium buildable coverage and stays really well on my very very oily skin, and although it has great staying power it doesn't look overly matte, unlike my Estee Lauder Double Wear.

Benefit Rockateur Blush:
this is a blush I had wanted for a very long time and my Aunty purchased this for me for my birthday back in February, and I have fallen in love with it. She bought me the Rock-itude gift set and I have to say that I also love high beam and bene tint.

Illamasqua Hollow:
I have wanted this for a long time and purchased it back in february and I have been in love with it even since, it can look slightly scary when you first get it but it really is the perfect contour if you have a light skin tone, as it isn't too orange or too muddy, it really is the prefect shade (can you tell I love this).

I haven't really had that many favourites this month, as i have been very lazy this month when it comes to new products.
