So I recently purchased this item off QVC in search for new cheek products and decided to choose this as it has been highly reviewed recently. It arrived in this cute little box, as usual Benefit packaging being super cute! It had a simple mini brush inside, where a mirror is when the lid is lifted up. 





At first I wasn't impressed it took me awhile to get the colour to come out but I then used another brush of mine and it worked fabulous! The colour is in between a pink and coral mixed together with a perfect shimmer, I found it applied smoothly with no issues, lasted all day long and really helped enhance my face dimension. As for the brush which came with it, I think because it is " new " and " unused " it needs to be used a few times, but I prefer to stick with my usual brushes but this mini brush is perfect for a handbag size / travel!

Hey guys! So two weeks ago QVC (UK) had some amazing offers over on there Yankee Candle Show, I couldn't help but resist purchasing some new candles to add to the collection!
I found this amazing set of three Large Jars for £43.50 (They usually retail for £20 each!!!) The first candle which i'm very common with is;


  1. Home Sweet Home Large Jar - This is a favorite of mine, it has a hint of cinnamon with spices blended it. It almost reminds me of the outdoors, fresh forest which is overgrown with oak wood and trees. It is just perfect and makes me exited for Christmas with it's winter feel!
  2. Cinnamon Stick Large Jar - This candle has an extremely strong scent of cinnamon burst out, it is 100% very winter like reminding me of sitting in warm blankets with a cup of hot coco!
  3. Fireside Treats Large Jar - I have never experienced this candle before, and was very exicted to try it out! When it arrived the first scent I got was super super sweet and candy like, reminding me instantly of the scent you get when you open a bag of marshmallows! I can honestly say I have fallen in love with this candle, it is my 2nd favorite (First being Vanilla Cupcake) I just love the sweet scent!
Overall, I'm super happy with this offer QVC had for us! It is still avalible on there site, let me know what your favorite Yankee Candle is? :-)

This concealer is by far my FAVORITE! At first when it arrived I was shocked by the size, I thought it could of been bigger for the price I paid. But, judgment aside I placed a small blob onto my hand (I mean very small, very very very small!!!) and used my index finger to blend into my under eye. Instantly I realised how THICK this product is, it gave FULL coverage but it blended way beyond my under eye and all over that side of my face... The smallest blob I use gives me FULL coverage for my ENTIRE face! I can't get over it, that being said the size is no issue for me I can tell this is going to last a very long time estimate for over a year! I can't express how little you need for a full face coverage, I got the lightest colour since I am very pale. I do think the colour isn't the all that great, I do feel it makes me look a little "orange" tone but I use my Laura Geller porcelain foundation which is super pale and it tones it down completely - it then looks great! I recommend you use foundation/powder and don't wear the product on its own.

This collection was bought off QVC for a special value of £45 it's still available for £55, this collection comes in a gorgeous box which I will defiantly be keeping to store other products in! It came with a small guide of how to use each product, really useful! (And I did order two!





The first product in this set you would use is the Spackle Tinted Primer, this is a very light tinted color, which adapts to any skin color giving a shimmer glow. It is a great product and I can say, it has become one of my favorites simply because this helps make your skin look more healthy in color so you could easily wear it on it's own during the summer period if your just out and about and not looking for full coverage. 




The next product is the powder foundation, I got the colour "porcelain" as I am an extremely fair skin color. I have to admit this is the first product which I can honestly say it is 100% color perfect, it is very light and beyond shocked me! When I first applied this product, I used the brush with this kit and it just never worked very well, the second attempt I used my own brush and it applied smoothly, I found if I take longer to blend the product into my face it gives more color. As it is a powder foundation it doesn't give 100% coverage and I would say it gives about 40% coverage and focuses more on the color. I recommend if you are to use this product and like to have a large amount of coverage (like myself) you should use a very good concealer! 





The eye-shadow duo which came with the set in Earth & Petal colors. I personally think this duo is perfect for getting a smokey simple look, it has no shimmer or glitter to the colors and once applied it gives a very simple yet dramatic appearance.




 The blush is amazing, my favorite and most beautiful product I have EVER seen! It has a mixture of pink and glitter colors, it gives a perfect shimmer and is patterned perfectly. When I swatched this product is looked so perfect, I noticed when I applied it, the product didn't show up as much and I had to apply it a few times to get it noticed, (I personally think it was the brush I was using).





The lipstick is also again, a new favorite of mine as I love how it pumps up from twisting the bottom but the tip is very soft almost like velvet. You only need about two twists and you have enough product ready! I applied this in the morning and it lasted through out the day, the color is very spring like almost like a peach color.











The eyeliner is is waterproof in dark brown shade, its container is an unusual shape (it doesn't stand up right because it is angled at the bottom), it has a rubber like material towards the top of the product making it easy to grip (which I love about this) when using it to apply. And like majority of liners in containers similar you twisted the top (from where you remove the lid) for more of the product to come out.





And finally, the double ended brush with came with this set. The larger end of the brush is suppose to be used for the foundation, but when I used it I found the brush was very thick and irritable to my skin I found if I was to apply this as a foundation brush it would being to irritate my sensitive skin. So instead I have decided to use it for my blush :-) And then, the thinner side I use for the eye shadow when attempting to blend.

This lipgloss was bought in part of a QVC set, and I must admit this is bar far one off my favorite lip glosses I have tried so far. This is because not only the colour but when you apply this to your lips it gives a "plumping" sensation,  making your lips feel like they have enlarged twice there size! The colour is similar to a clear glossy but it has a tint of peach making your lips look a light pinky colour which has a gloss of shimmer! The brush is angled at a slant making it easy for you to apply this product into the corners of your lips, it is just perfect all round I have not found a lipgloss which I love as much as this, I am defiantly going to invest in more colours of this product! 







You can buy this product off the Bare Minerals website for £16.00 in various colours!:

This foundation was bought in part of a Bare minerals QVC set, at first I was unsure of the thought of using a powder foundation. Simply because I was unsure of the amount of coverage, the chance of over-using and running out of the product faster, it drying my skin up, how long it would last and simply it it "worked as a foundation". HOWEVER! I apply this product after my primer, BB cream etc and I find this does work really well! It looks extremely natural, the colour is perfect for my porcelain skin - I find it gives me a little colour but looks natural. I haven't found it dries my skin up (lots), although I notice on certain areas such as my nose and under my eyes my skin has become somewhat dry so I generally apply a little more moisture in those areas before my routine begins!




APPLICATION: So I tip a small amount of this product into the lid, and use my foundation brush (which came with the set off Bare minerals) and swirl it around inside the lid until the product is applied to the brush, I then use a brushing/swirling motion on my face, I find if I blend it for longer I get more colour/coverage. The product doesn't give a "huge" amount of coverage and I find I generally apply BB cream first making the powder glide on easily and helps with colour & use concealer for under my eyes, nose and acne/spot areas which need extra coverage. I prefer to use this foundation for warm days especially for summer it will be perfect as it is light weight, although I must admit this foundation does generally need a quick top up throughout the day if you like to keep your makeup in line and perfect for the whole day! 
This product was bought in a QVC set from Bare Minerals, this is a powder blush in the colour "glamour". To apply this product I simply dab a small amount into the lid and then use a brush to mix and apply to the apples of my cheeks and blend outwards.
