Beauty By Nicholas Eye Alchemy

I have been waiting patiently for some time now to use the Beauty By Nicholas Eye Alchemy. I like to finish existing products before opening new ones, and it felt like the eye cream I was using was just not giving up. Taken from Priceline - "Ditch dark circles, bags and crow's feet with instant eye candy. This highly effective formula is gentle on your delicate eye area, to instantly smooth and brighten without painful procedure." The eye cream comes in the typical packaging of the Beauty By Nicholas range. I really like the classy look of the chrome cylinder, but I also find it inconvenient not knowing how much is left in the container. Dispensing the product can be done through the pump top dispenser. The consistency of the eye product is that of a light weight serum.  Although I normally love a pump top dispenser, I find that this one can get messy as the pump can squirt the product out too quickly, plus for me it's too much product for an applicati

Lipstick Declutter Update #11

I'd like to say that I am still going strong with this lipstick declutter. I am determined to continue with it, but I am not wearing makeup as much lately, so it has slowed down some. Anyway here's the lipsticks I tried on in this update. ColourPop Ultra Metallic in Kween As much as this lipstick is such a stunning shade, I've made the difficult decision to declutter it.

ColourPop Lippie Stix in Flawless I've decided to declutter this lipstick. It's a nice deep shade, but I know I won't reach for it. ColourPop Ultra Metallic in Salt This was a hard decision for me.

October Empties

Another month, another rubbish blog post. Well, me posting about my rubbish, anyway! It's actually a little misleading calling this an Empties post because I have way more items that I am decluttering. Firstly, I'll show you what I finished anyway Papa Recipe Bombee Royal Honey Propolis Sheet Masks- I finished off the box of these masks and as much as I ended up quite liking them, there's so many sheet masks that I want to try. Repurchase? I'm not in any hurry to restock these. Hand Chemistry Triple-Function Hyaluronic-Rich Hydrator- This hand cream is quite light weight, which is great for applying during the day, and does a nice job of hydrating the hands. Repurchase? I would consider buying this hand cream again. If I'm to be honest, though, I'm not that fussy with hand creams and I don't seek out particular brands, just whatever sounds good. Sierra Bees Unflavored Lip Balm- I finally finished off this pack of lip balms. I found
