Skincare routine - "the lazy solution"


Hi guys, today I have this little miracle for you the Nivea sensitive 3 in 1. Skincare has become really important to me recently. I just try to do everything to have a really clear skin which I'm sure everyone dreams of. I've been testing this products for few weeks and it is easily the best micellar cleansing water I have come across. 

There are all these steps in a perfect skin routine that you need to follow which I don't really follow especially in the morning before college because I don't have any time. But with this product there is no excuse to skip any steps as it removes makeup, cleanses and moisturises your face, I mean what else would you want! This product helps you to say goodbye to redness due from dry skin, tightness and dryness. It offers intensive care that effectively reduces the three signs of sensitive skin. The fact it it requires no rinsing makes it very useful and easy to use when you're in a rush(which I am most of the time) or even when you're traveling. This product provides  basically everything my skin needs when I'm in a rush which is why I like it so much! 
Cost - £3 (easily affordable which is another bonus!)

Mac lipstick


Hello, today I have a Mac girl around town review for you all which is a strong pink. It's an amplified creme lipstick by Mac however I don't find it noticible because when I put it on my lips it doesn't feel creamy at all it dries very quickly on your lips and feels like a matt finish which is quite good as it can last on my lips for about 5 hours and it doesn't come off very easily however I did notice that when I eat or drink it doesn't stay on for very long. 

For me it's a perfect colour and I love wearing it with pretty much every outfit but for most people it will just be a lipstick that you'd wear to a party or on a casual day as it does have a strong finish to it. It's also worth noticing that the colour doesn't turn out like a bright pink on your lips but more like a very dark pink. Thank you for reading :)) 
Cost - £15.50

SMOOTHIES

Hello everyone, first of all happy new year I wish everyone a great 2015. Everyone has probably made some kind of New Years resolutions and one of most people resolutions is to stay healthy and fit! Well guess what? So is mine. So I decided to share with you guys some of my favourite smoothies recipes. The best thing about smoothies is that they are the nicest thing ever and still healthy, quick to make and most of the ingrideints needed are always in our house because you can simply throw anything into a smoothie. 
This one is the vanilla yogurt and blueberry smoothie. 

Ingredients: 
- 1c of milk (if you use skin or soy milk it will be healthier however it's totally up to you) 
- 8 oz (80-calorie) vanilla yogurt 
- 1 c of fresh blueberries 
- Handful of ice OR 1 cup of frozen blueberries 

Instructions: 
- combine milk, yogurt and fresh blueberries plus ice in a blender. Blend for about 1min. And that's it, it's reay to serve. (This recipe will serve 1 person howeve the more products you add the more people it will serve obviously) 

Okay this is like my favourite one the Pupkin Pie smoothie. There is currently a big thing about Pupkin spice hot chocolate and latte etc from Starbucks and Costa so I decided to try a smoothie out instead. 

Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup water 
- 1 cup Pupkin purée (not Pupkin pie filling) 
- 1/2 small banana 
- 1 scoop vainalla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Pupkin pie spice 
- 1/2 cup light coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
- 1 cup ice 

Instructions: 
Combine all ingrideints in a blender. Blend until completely combined and smooth. Serve and enjoy :) 

The last one is the banna peanut butter smoothie which is probably the easiest one to make and I make it very often as all the ingredients are very easily accesible. I found this picture on the internet and I thought I'd use it since it clearly shows what you need to use. Just blend all these together and it's done. Or to make it easier sometimes I just blend a banana in add some milk and vainalla ice cream and that's it, trust me it's very delicious. 

Thank you all for reading, I hope you enjoy these let me know if you try any! Set yourself a little goal and make smoothie recipes up yourself basically throw anything you have in the house (not so literally) just fruits or vegetables and definitely let me know what your favourite smoothies are and I'll try them.
