Hey everyone, today I am going to be sharing with you my September favourites and I know it is still technically September I wanted to share them with you anyway. Hope you enjoy.

The first product I have been loving I think I mentioned in my August favourites (http://louloves01.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/august-favourites.html) and it is the Yes To Cucumbers Daily Gel Cleanser. This cleanser gets rid of make-up really easily but is still really gentle on my skin. The Yes To Cucumbers range is aimed at people with sensitive skin but Yes To do many different ranges for different skin types. It is £6.99 and is available at most places including boots.

Another product I have been loving is the Soap&Glory Foam Call shower gel. I have really been loving this over the month of September and I would recommend it to anyone. I think that all Soap&Glory shower gels are quite moisturising but I would say that this is one of the most moisturising. Soap&Glory is only available and it was £6.50 for 500ml.


The next thing I have been loving isn't a product it is the Sacconejoly's. I am sure lots of you are familiar with the Sacconejolys but for those of you who aren't they are a youtube family of vloggers who are Irish but are currently living in Surrey. they upload a 16 minute vlog every day. They have been vlogging everyday for 5 years and I have been watching them for 1 1/2 years.

The next thing again is actually a product it is a song and it is Fight Song by Rachel Platten. I have been listening to this song non-stop through-out September. It is £0.99 on iTunes and is also on Spotify.

The next thing is actually a perfume and it is the Katy Perry Royal Revolution. I did a full review of this in my favourite scents http://louloves01.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/favourite-scents.html
The final product I will be sharing with you is the Real Techniques Shading Brush. I love this brush for applying and blending but it can be used for anything really. All of the Real Techniques brushes are really soft and I will definitely be purchasing more. This brush is £7.99 but is definitely worth it.


Thank-you so much for reading.

Hey everyone I know today is not a regular upload day but today I have had my blog for 1 month but I wanted to thank-you for all of your support so I am going to be sharing with you my favourite drugstore lip products as a bonus post.

1- Revlon Lip Butter
These lip butters are so creamy and they are really pigmented. They come in a variety of shades I only have one but I am definitely going to be repurchasing it and hopefully buying more. I have the shade 96 macaroon. They are £7.99 and are available in Boots and Superdrug.

2- Barry M matte me up lip crayon
I only have 1 of these in the shade 2 and all though it is matte it is still really moisturizing. There are 5 shades but they are completely different colours and they would suit any skin tone. They are £4.99 and can be bought at Boots and Superdrug.

3- Natural Collection moisture shine lipstick
These lipsticks are shiny but one that I have is matte and it is the shade Pink Mallow/ They are quite moisturizing but they aren't as moisturizing as the Revlon lip butters. These are only available at Boots and they are £1.99

 

Hey everyone today I am going to be sharing with you my Ferrero Rocher Cheesecake.

 

For 10 servings you will need:

 

BASE

400g of digestive biscuits - crushed

125g Unsalted butter - melted

 

FILLING

300ml of double cream

1tsp of vanilla extract

500g of full-fat cream cheese - room temperature

1/2 cup of sifted icing sugar

5 Ferrero rocher's cut into small pieces

 

TOPPING

4tbsp of Nutella

Chopped hazelnuts

5 whole Ferrero Rocher's

 

 

Lightly grease the bottom of 23cm cheesecake tin.

 

BASE

Place the biscuits in a food processor and blitz until fine or put in a food bag and beat it with a rolling pin until they are in small bits. Then mix in the melted butter tip it into the tin. Press it down firmly then put it in the fridge whilst you make the filling.

 

FILLING

Put the vanilla and the cream in a big mixing bowl, then whisk until the cream has formed soft peaks . Then fold in the icing sugar and cream cheese until it's all mixed in then add in the chopped Ferrero rocher's. Spoon the mixture on top of the biscuit base and smooth it over with a spatula. Place tin foil on top of the cheesecake and leave it in the fridge for 6 hours at least or overnight.

Once the cheesecake has set add the nutella to a small saucepan and melt it over a low heat for 3-4 minutes or until it is slightly runny. Then allow it to cool for a few minutes and then spread over the top of the cheesecake then decorate in Ferreo Rochers and some finely chopped hazelnuts. Then place it back in the fridge for another hour before serving.

Hope you enjoy and thank-you so much for reading

Hey everyone I am going to be sharing with you my favourite fragrances. Hope you enjoy... xx

1-Zoella Beauty Bissful Mistful
This is a really light spring/summer scent as it is a really floral scent. It is available in Superdrug and on feelunique and It is £ so it is quite reasonably priced.


2- Katy Perry Royal Revolution
This is a really good year long scent as it smells of vanilla and pomegranate but no scent really stands out and they all blend together to make a really nice scent


3- Soap & Glory Mist You Madly
This has no standing out scent because it just blends together to make a really nice summery scent.


4- Hollister Solana Beach
This is a really floral scent but it isn't a really powerful scent but it isn't too subtle. This scent stays put all day and doesn't really lose it's scent.

Hey everyone I decided that today I would share with you my skincare routine. I don't have a really long skincare routine but I thought I would share it with you anyway. Hope you enjoy.

 

First of all I cleanse my face with the Simply Sensitive Foaming cleansing face wash. This is really good for cleansing my skin without it being too harsh

. However, I don't take my eye make-up off with this because it makes my eyes a little bit sticky. To take off my eye make-up off with the Simply Sensitive eye make-up remover pads. These take off eye make-up so easily but they aren't too harsh that it hurts my eyes.

 I then use the Simply Sensitive Cleansing Face Mask. This mask is so good as it cleans my skin without it being aggressive on my skin. This is great for reduce under skin spots (if you know what I mean by that).

 Then to moisturize my skin I use the Simply Sensitive hydrating moisturizer all over my face. I use this all over my face as it moisturizes my skin but it doesn't make my skin greasy like with some other moisturizers. This moisturizer is really cheap and affordable but it is as good as any other moisturizer. Then finally, I put Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula on the dry areas on my face as if I put it all over my face it makes it really greasy. I put it on my cheeks as it also reduces the redness.

 

Cleanser - £2.69

Face Mask - £3.19

Eye make-up remover pads - £3.19

Hydrating Moisturizer - £3.49

Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula - £4.15

 

All of these products are available at Boots - www.boots.com

 

Thank-you so much for your support.

Hey everyone today I am going to be sharing with you my top 5 products that are under £5. Hope you enjoy. xx

1- Maybelline Colour Tattoo
I have two of these and they are amazing . They are really pigmented and I have used one of them for nearly a year and the other I got recently another because the first one I got was so good. I have the shades Creamy Beige (98) and On and On Bronze (35). They are only £4.99.


2- The Comforter Bubble Bar
This is from lush and smells amazing. I did a whole review of this on my Favourite Lush Products (http://louloves01.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/favourite-lush-products.html) Check it out for a full review. It is £4.75 and available at Lush.

3- Baby Lips
I have loads of these as they are really hydrating and creamy on my lips. I have a range of colours and are available in a lot of colours and also colour free like the hydrate. They are available in most places and are only £2.99


4- Natural Collection Lipstick
I have two of these in the shades Pink Mallow and Sweet Pea. Personally I prefer Pink Mallow but as it is matte and Sweet Pea is shiny with a hint of glitter. I use Pink Mallow nearly every weekend and even though it is matte it is still very moisturising. These are only available at Boots and they are only £1.99.

5- Simply Sensitive Deep Cleansing  Face Mask
This face mask is great for sensitive/dry skin as it doesn't dry out your skin and it is actually quite hydrating but I find that I still have to use a moisturiser otherwise it can be a little bit drying.  It is also quite thick so you don't need to use too much. You get 75ml for £3.19 but it is only available from Boots.

Hey everyone today I am going to be sharing with you all my eye products. I was going to do my whole make-up collection but to make it shorter I thought I would just do my eye products but if you want me to do my lip products just let me know.

 

1- Maybelline Colour Tattoo

I have two of these in the shades On and On Bronze (35) and Creamy Beige (98). These were £4.99 each and are really easy to build up or they can be used for just for a wash of colour.

 

Hey everyone, today I am going to be sharing with you Celebrity Make-up looks that have inspired me.

 

1- Tanya Burr

Tanya has helped me not to be too careful applying eyeshadow etc. as before I used to be really careful when applying it but now I know that I can blend it in/out to make it look tidier

 

2- Dove Cameron

Dove has helped me not to get too crazy with colours and that sometimes neutral make-up is more effective that bold make-up

 

3-Kate Middleton

Kate's Make-up always looks amazing in each of her photos so I look at the different looks and combine them into one.

4- Kim Kardashian

 Her make-up always looks amazing so I take aspects from her looks and add them together.

5- Taylor Swift
Her lips have encourage me to wear a red lip as sometimes I feel like my skin tone is too light to wear a red lip but Taylor always proves me wrong.

Thanks so much for all your continuous support
Love Lou

Hey guys so today I am going to be sharing with you my pamper routine.

 

First I have a bath I usually use a Lush product and my favourites to use are The Comforter, Dragon's Egg, Mmmelting Marshmallow Moment and Yoga Bomb. But I also love Zoella's Beauty Range.



Then once I have had my bath I take my make-up off using the Yes To Cucumbers everyday gel cleanser. This take off my make-up really easily without being too harsh on my skin. Then I put on my Simply Sensitive Deep Cleansing face mask. I leave this on for 2-3 minutes. After I wash it off I put on the Simply Sensitive Hydrating Moisturiser and the Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula however I only put the Cocoa butter on my really dry/sensitive areas. I then use the Hollister Solana Beach Body lotion.

Then I put on a onesie and watch some Tv or a film on Netflix. My favourite films on Netflix are Love Rosie, Employee Of The Month, Ghost, The Best Of Me and Up. In Winter I light a candle usually Yankee Candle Snowflake Cookie which is only available in Winter.



Thank-you so much for reading

I also did a blog post on these quite recently and the recipe is really easy and affordable.

 Hey guys. So today I am going to be sharing with you my favourite drugstore products.

Skincare

The first product is the Boots Simply Sensitive eye make up removal pads. These take off eye make up really easily but are really gentle on my eyes. You get 30 pads in the pack for £3.19

The last skincare product I am going to be showing you is the Boots Simply Sensitive deep cleansing face mask. You get 75ml for £3.19. It has quite a thick consistency so you don't need to much at once I have had mine for 3 months and it isn't even half way down. I recommend using it once or twice a week.

Make-up

A lipstick I love is from Natural Collection in Pink Mallow. This shade is a pretty matte pink nude. However I do find that it us a little drying so I like to use a lip scrub and balm underneath.Pink Mallow is £1.99 and is from Boots only.




An eye palette I have been loving from Superdrug is the Tanya Burr Hollywood eye palette. All four shades are neutral shades so they would suit any eye colour and skin tone. This palette was £5.99 from Superdrug. It is also available online at www.feelunique.com .
