♥My Thoughts On - Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation♥

Hello blogger friends, today I will be doing a review on the Rimmel London match perfection foundation and again this is another post which has been requested from one of my lovely Instagram followers.


Firstly I'll start off by saying that this foundation is available in boots, superdrug and probably many other shops and mine was £6.99 (but its on offer for £4.99 and the link is below) from superdrug in the shade 101 light porcelain. I went into superdrug intending to repurchase the Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer and I saw this foundation and I had to treat myself and buy it because everyone was hyping about it, so I did.

 Ever since I bought it I have used it every single day as It's a really light foundation and doesn't feel heavy on the skin so its perfect to wear to school as is makes your skin look really natural. I'd say the coverage from this foundation is medium because I have very oily skin, lots of freckles and blemishes and the foundation does cover any redness and blemishes but I wouldn't say it covers freckles completely. The finish of this foundation is probably in the middle again as its not completely matte but its not shiny although I still like to use a pressed powder to set it with and reduce shine. This foundation is made to match your skin tone perfectly and to be honest I think it does as most foundations that I try are always too orange even when I buy the palest shade and they always look really dark on my skin tone. However this is one of the only foundations that I have tried that actually matches my skin tone and looks really natural which is great! When I apply this foundation I use my Cosmopolitan beauty blender to blend it in and set it with a pressed powder as I said before and I think it blends really easily. All in all I think this foundation is really good, its a very affordable price and I really like it. I would defenitley repurchase it although I do like to try new products.

I hope this helped you and I hoped you like it please leave any feedback, drugstore foundations that you reccomend and any blog post requests in the comments below and I will defenitley reply, thank you

♥My Favorite Lush Products♥

So on Instagram I asked you what you wanted me to post next and someone told me to do a post on what my favorite lush products are so I thought I would because lush is by far one of my favorite shops ever and I always end up spending all my money in there oopss.


I think that its safe to save almost everybody loves snow fairy shower gel and yes I do know that this is only available at Christmas time unfortunetly but I have cleverly stocked up this year and I have a huge bottle which hopefully will last me *cross fingers*. It smells like bubblegum and sweets and has lots of iridescent glitter in it which makes me feel like a princess woop woop! I also got mine whilst it was half price so it was such a good deal.


Sorry that most of the products on here are pink but what can I say. Bubble bars are my favorite thing from lush and the comforter is one of the best in my opinion. It smells like berries and I break it up into smaller chunks so I usually get around 4 pink, bubbly baths from it so its well worth the money (it costs around £4 I think). I just love getting home from a hard day at school and getting in a red hot, pink bubbly bath that smells like berries and putting on my onesie afterwards, now that is my idea of heaven.



The magic wand bubble band is another pink, Christmas product sorry but I love this so so much! Its just like a bubble bar but on a stick shaped like a fairy wand so when you swirl it around your tub to create bubbles you feel like a magical fairy princess, or at least I do anyway. It smells identical to snow fairy shower gel (mentioned above) and you can use it up to 6 times so again its worth the money and I think mine cost around £5 sorry that I don't know the exact prices. All I do is run a hot bath and when it gets about half way full I swish this around the tub until the water turns a light dusty pink, bubbles are starting to appear and my whole bathroom smells like a fairy princess castle (you can tell that I love princesses can't you haha).


The next product is surprisingly not pink, but it is inside haha. This is the enchanter bath ballistic and it was a Halloween product but now they are keeping it in stores permanently because everyone loved it so much! It smells really fresh and zingy and it is great for that wake me up bath in a morning. When you drop it into your bathtub is creates hot pink, orange and yellow swirl patterns and it almost looks like a beautiful, bright sunset. 


So the last product is pink, sorry I just had to include it, it's the twilight bath ballistic and everyone I know loves this one. Its pink, purple and blue inside and it even includes glitter to make the bath even more magical. It smells like lavender and its huge! I love this bath ballistic and on every shopping trip I always end up popping into Lush and buying some of these,oops.

Hope you liked this blog post, please leave any feedback or future blog requests in the comments below or let me know what your favorite lush products are, goodbye for now lovelies.

♡Face Washes And Scrubs♡

Hi everyone long time no posts so I will start this post by apologizing for not posting anything in quite a while. The reason why I have not been posting is because I have not been able to upload any pictures or photos to my laptop from my phone and camera so I haven't had any pictures to include in my posts. But I thought that I should still do some posts so for the time being I am going to be using pictures from Google images so please bear with me.

Anyway after that ramble I am going to be doing a post on the face washes and scrubs that I have tried, so like mini reviews on them,enjoy:)

 So the first product is the Neutrogena visibly clear blackhead eliminating daily scrub (I know its a long name haha) and you can buy this from superdrug for £4.49. I have been using this for quite a while now and I like it. This product is definetley a scrub and has exfoliating beads in it to help reduce the appearance of blackheads and I bought this because I tend to get quite a lot of annoying blackheads around my nose. After using this scrub I have noticed less blackheads but I have to say it doesn't change too much. Its a very creamy scrub and I think it smells like oranges but I may be wrong.

The second product is the boots skin clear daily face scrub and I only got this because it was half price for only £1.49 obviously from boots. Also I only got this because I wanted a cheap scrub to take on holiday with me and now I am using it at home because I love it so much! I love the texture of this scrub because again it has the exfoliating micro beads in it to help reduce oil on the skin. I have really oily skin and this scrub definetley helps to reduce oil and helps reduce the size and redness of spots which is why I love this product so much. Also it makes my skin feel really clean,smooth and soft.
The third face wash is not a scrub and it is is the Nivea visage daily essentials and I can't remember it being too expensive and I don't even know if it is still available to buy but I thought I would still do a small review on this too. To be honest I didn't really like using this face wash at all and it does say on the packaging 'normal&combination skin' so I don't really know why I bought it because I have oily skin so I think that is the reason why I didn't like it. It smells really nice but it doesn't have any micro beads so it isn't very exfoliating and it didn't do much to my skin apart from make it feel soft, I don't think I would repurchase this again.


The last face scrub is the Garnier pure anti blackhead deep pore wash which I cannot find the link to and I do not know the price of it because my mum picked it me up because I ran out of my other face washes. I'm pretty sure you would be able to pick it up from boots or superdrug though for only a few pounds. I really like this scrub because it makes your skin feel really clean and fresh and it helps reduce oil on my face. It removes any makeup really well and It smells like cucumber which I don't really like but its not a big problem and the scent doesn't really affect me.

I hope this post was helpful to you and please feel free to reccomend any other face washes or scrubs down below or just leave me any blog post requests which you would like me to do in the future. Thanks for reading and I love you all

My Thoughts On - Soap And Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash

Hello my lovelies, today I am going to be telling you my thoughts on the Soap And Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash. You may recognize the picture on the right from my Instagram (@vintage_escape you should follow me hahaha) anyway that's what this product looks like. In fact why am I even showing you a picture of it you've probably seen it like a billion times already because its hyped up so much.

Moving swiftly on..I was wanting to try some more Soap And Glory products because I was a bit of a 'newbie' and I only have a few body sprays from them, so I went over to the Soap And Glory shelves in Boots and this product stood out because of the yellow stripes on the bottle. I automatically picked up the bottle and gave it a sniff..it smells totes amaze balls! So I bought it, it smells like lime, kiwi and very fresh and zingy if that makes sense. Its the sort of shower wash that you would use for that 'wake me up' shower in the morning. You could say I only bought it because of the smell. Apart from the smell I love the packaging and the way that It has a pump so its very easy to get the body wash out of the bottle.

This product was £6.50 from Boots which I don't think is too bad considering it smells like heaven and you get 500g which Is going to last me ages. Its a white body wash, it isn't very thick and when you pump it out of the bottle it makes the whole shower smell like a lime cocktail, its so good!

That's it for this 'my thoughts on...' post I hope you liked this and It wasn't too boring, goodbye everyone.

My Thoughts On: The Wreck This Journal♥

 Hello everyone, today I'm going to be telling you about a lovely book called 'wreck this journal' by Keri Smith. First of all it is a journal with lots of pages in and on every page it tell you too do something which wrecks it for example: 'colour the entire page' 'scratch with a sharp object' 'collect all the stamps from your mail' 'cover this page with your hand prints and fingerprints,get them dirty,then press them down' 'spill,spit,drip,fling your coffee here.' It sounds very weird and unusual I know but believe me its so fun and addictive, below I have included a collage of a few pictures of some of my favorite pages that I have completed in my 'wreck this journal.' I have also included a picture of what the book looks like, you can decorate the cover however you like, most people decorate it with pictures or wallpaper but I choose to decorate it with a few cute hello kitty stickers and I also stuck a few blue,glittery sequins around the title but most of them fell off. I choose to decorate my like this because I thought If I wrapped it up in something it would just ruin the whole effect of how damaged the book looks.

The books are available in WHSmiths and urban outfitters for around £9 I think. However I got mine from amazon for £6.74 here's the direct link to it http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wreck-This-Journal-Create-Destroy/dp/1846144450/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1359048240&sr=8-1

I didn't want this post to be a big ramble that no one reads and hopefully it wasn't but I'm going to stop here by saying its an amazing book and when I'm bored it definitely gives me something to do, I can't wait til its all done and I can flick through the pages proudly. I'd definitely recommend getting one If you don't have one already especially if you love drawing and your a very creative person.

Some of my completed favorite pages of my wreck this journal.

To Buy List♥

I didn't know what to post today so I thought I'd just show you several items that I'm hoping to buy in the future,sorry if this is a boring post but I thought it would be great to look back on in a few weeks to see if I have bought any of these items and maybe I'll do these types of posts every couple of weeks just to remind me what I want to buy and why,anyway enjoy the post and don't worry there will be much more interesting posts soon!

Snowflake nail polish by models own. So I've been thinking about this one for a while,I am a nail polish hoarder and I really don't think I need any more but lets be honest there's always those unusual nail polishes that you come across on your travels and you just think to yourself 'I haven't got a colour like that in my collection!' then after you've said those few words over and over again in your head your already walking out of super drug with a brand new nail polish, that's how the story goes..right? Anyway with that being said I actually don't have a colour like this, I have many different kinds of finely milled glitter polishes but not that are this shape glitter its like iridescent flakes,so pretty so I'm definitely going to get this soon,it just looks so good on pictures and I need it in my life!
Cath Kidston pencil case. I always say to myself  'right I'm going to get this pencil case and actually use it!' But I never do, the last pencil case I lost so I'm going to get this one and use it, its so cute and I love floral so this pencil case is just so me!


White frilly Topshop ankle socks. I just love how these socks look peeping out the top of vans,blazers,creepers,wedges,heels,air max..the list is endless. I have a pair of burgundy vans and I love and wear them to death and I can just image my black skater skirt, baggy tee tucked in, vans and these socks. This is why I need them in my life,don't worry I'll pick some up next time i nip to Topshop,so pretty!

I know there wasn't really a lot of items on this 'to buy list' but I suppose that's a good thing,because I won't be spending my money on rubbish that I don't need. Toodle pip my lovelies.
