An Update..

I feel like all I do in my blog posts is apologise for not writing enough! I haven't posted a blog since March so I felt like I would update you all before I began writing weekly posts again! It's now nearing the end of May and I've finally finished my second year of uni and have a full Summer ahead of me. So since I last posted I have had some great nights out with my best friends in Sheffield and Manchester, I started working again! I got a spray tan for the first time since prom and I went on HOLIDAY! (a post dedicated entirely to this will be posted shortly)! And to top all of this off I got my first car.

I went on the Royal Caribbean ship Ovation of the Seas for a week, it visited France and Spain.

And celebrated my friends 20th birthday in Manchester!

And finally I got my first car!

A lot of my photos are taken from Snapchat, and my username is chelseaowenxx. I will be doing weekly posts from now on so look out for more beauty reviews! If there is anything you would like to see just leave me a comment below.

MAYBELLINE IT LOOKS/// RED SIREN

I'm writing this post about an amazing kit that I picked up from Superdrug. This kit includes some of Maybelline's best products and retails at £30! It is an absolute bargain for the amount of product that it includes. The RRP of the items must in total be well over £50 at least. They do several different kits but I decided to choose the 'Red Siren' kit as it had the contour kit and the Nudes eyeshadow palette that I've been wanting for a while. 

The kit included the Nudes eyeshadow palette, the Lash Sensational- which is by the way amazing! The matte lipstick in shade 'Divine Wine', the master precise eye liner and eyebrow pencil and finally the Master Sculpt contour kit. This is such good value for money and I would 100% recommend! You can find the kits HERE! Feel free to leave any comments.

MARCH WISHLIST

Hello again everyone! My post today is going to be dedicated to all the things that I'm loving/lusting for this month. {Take note family & Alex, as my birthday is only 3 months away} Feel free to comment below and tell me what you're wishing for this month, or if you have the product I'm lusting for whether it is worth the hype.

Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place

This is a high end foundation that I've been wanting for a while now. I love a high coverage foundation and have read so many good reviews on this.

Fleur De Force by Eyelure

I love Fleur de Force, and watch her YouTube videos regularly, I think these would be some perfect lashes for my holiday where I want a lash that just enhances my natural lashes. 

Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette

I've been wanting a Urban Decay palette for around a year now but can't bring myself to splurge and spend the £38.50 on one, does anyone have the Smoky palette? Is it worth the price tag?

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

Again, I've been wanting a Urban Decay palette for so long, the shadows in this palette are all colours that I would wear, and I've read so many good reviews on this palette.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer

Obviously, if I'm going to spend nearly £40 on some eyeshadow I want them to stay in place? I'd love the primer to go with the palettes.

Mac Prep and Prime fix

My sister has this and I love it! It keeps your makeup in place all day.

Sony A5000 Camera

Not beauty related and this one is a bit of a cheat as I have actually ordered this to be delivered when I return home from uni but I'm so excited to receive it, and up my game on my blog photos.

Benefit Watts Up

I love the idea of a creamy stick highlighter and love the brand Benefit, so I definitely want to invest in this highlighter.

Mary Lou Manizer Highlighter

Another highlighter...but I've heard brilliant reviews of this highlighter, I haven't tried any of the Balm products just yet.

Morphe 12 Piece Brush Set

I really want to try some Morphe brushes, they look pretty and are affordable.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit

Need I even explain why I would want this cult beauty product? I really want to try a cream contour product so think this would be perfect.

Pandora Sparking Heart Ring

Another non-beauty related product but I really want a chunky ring and love the design of this.

I hope you've enjoyed reading about all the things I would love this month! Feel free to comment below.

COCO WHITES

Coco Whites

Earlier this month in December I visited the Clothes Show Live which took place in Birmingham at the NEC, {find out more info about this HERE! if you wish} and purchased a box of Coco Whites at the reduced price of £15, I believe they are normally around £20, so I saved around £5 plus postage which was a bonus! I was very excited to try the product as it has been sponsored by many celebrities especially on Instagram and I was curious as to what was so special about these little white sachets!

If you're unsure as to what Coco Whites is, it is basically a refined version of the ancient tradition of oil pulling. The little sachets are full of coconut oil which has been flavoured to make the process more bearable. 

I bought the minty fresh flavour and the box looks like this:

In the box you get 14 sachets as the course is supposed to take 14 days, the sachets look like this:

On the first use I was amazed at the results, see below before and after one use!

Excuse my teeth!

REVIEW: The actual process isn't very nice at all, the coconut oil can be solid and is a very strange texture until it melts in your mouth. The process is also very boring so I would suggest browsing the internet or stalking someone on Facebook whilst your swirl for 10-15 minutes! I was very impressed with the results at first however these results soon ended, and I didn't seen much change after this. The only benefit that was a result of the process was it made me more aware about my teeth and they felt amazingly clean after the oil pulling! I wouldn't recommend this product as I don't personally think it is worth the money HOWEVER if you wish to buy the website can be found HERE!  and I have a voucher code for 20% of which is CSL20.
