A Quick Bodycare Haul

Hello Ravingbeauties x

A couple of weeks ago, i felt that i needed something to cheer me up abit so i headed down to an amazing shop called BodyCare. This little shop sells everything to do with beauty, hair, nails,body products, literally everything.

technic Get LASHED Volumising Mascara | Bodycare | £1.39

While looking at the beauty products i saw this mascara, the packaging reminded me of a very popular mascara and when i looked at the price tag at £1.39, i thought, i would give it ago.

Batiste  Dry Shampoo in Blush | Bodycare | £1.29

While in Bodycare i noticed that for a 150ml bottle of Batiste  its just £1.29 and in other shops it around £2.99 depending which shop you go to. So i decided i would pick one up and while looking at all the different scents that i have not tried the one in 'Blush' so i decided to get that one. But, recently i have seen that in Superdrug you can get a bottle of 400ml Batiste Dry Shampoo in either Blush, Tropical or Clean and Classic Original for just £3.99 but at the moment it on reduced to £2.39.

Have you tried any of the items i purchased?? What do you think of them??

August Favorites

Hey Ravingbeauties x

Today i thought i would do a August Favorites post and show you everything i have been loving throughout August. I wont be doing these posts every month because sometimes my favorites are exactly the same as the month before. Some products haven't been hauled yet and that is because i just haven't got round to doing a post on them yet so you might see some of the products in this post being hauled after but, all the products that will be in a haul after this post have in fact been bought near the start of August.

My August Favorites

The Body Shop Madagascan Vanilla Flower Fragrance Mist | The Body Shop | £7

 So my first item is this fragrance mist, i bought it in July at the airport, while waiting for my plane to turkey to come into Manchester airport. At the time i did purchase two but out of the two this is my favorite but i will post a review and haul containing the other one. So i have been wearing this fragrance mist throughout July and August, i wore it nearly every single day on holiday in July and August. This perfume is lovely and sweet and smells of vanilla and i find when i am wearing this it lifts my mood and makes me happy.

Avon Arabian Glow Bronzing Pearls | Avon Catalogue | £10

 I have really been loving these to use on my cheek bones to give me a nice bronzed look. I haven't been wearing blush at all just these and i have been really enjoying the bronzed look that its been giving me.

technic Get LASHED Volumising Mascara | Bodycare | £1.39

This mascara is quite a wet mascara which i like and i really like the brush and how it separates my lashes and makes them have lots of volume and length.

Doughnut Bun | Primark | £1

This month i have been really lazy with my hair, because it the summer holidays and i am just chilling and relaxing and having a good time so i don't want to be spending lodes of time on my hair so i have just been having a bun on second and third day hair.

Lips WELL LICKED extreme shine lip gloss in Sorbet | Primark | £2.50

I bought this lip gloss quite a while ago and recently i have reached for it alot, it doesn't appear as orange on the lips as it looks in the tube with the amount that i apply but, i imagine it would if i applied more, it gives me a nice orangy, red colour which i quite like.

Stud Earrings Tassilly White Crystal 6mm by Tresor Paris | Tylers Jewelry Quarter | £11

These earring were a gift to me from my cousin for my birthday. They are real sterling silver, which i asked for so i can wear them all the time if i want and i wont need to change them because the fake, cheap earring that i get from Primark and places like that, if left in my ears to long, make the hole (that sounds rather rude, whups) go black and horrible, so i have been wearing these everyday in August.

If i have reviewed any of the items or products mentioned in this post, i will link the post to the name of the item or product, so click the name of the item or product if you want to read that.

So there are all my favorite things in August, whats are yours??

Exposé streak free self tanning mousse

Hello Ravingbeauties x

This product is available from Bodycare at 99p and Homebargins at 89p which in my opinion is a real steal.
Exposé streak free self tanning mousse claims to be for you face, legs and body but i personally have not and will not be trying it on my face because i never put any false tan on my face because i do not want to upset my skin.

It is formulated with aloe vera which is meant to keep your skin moisturized. I am not sure whether it actually  does this because my skin looked and felt the same before and after i put it on so it could be that the fake tan drys your skin out and then the aloe vera moisturizes it so it looks the same or it could of not dried my skin out at all (i'm not sure) but my skin looked the same as before.

Also it claims to:
- Develop an even and natural looking tan in hours.
- No streaks formula.
- Works with or without the sun.
I feel like it does develop a even and natural looking tan in hours but it does take hours to develop so you cannot see it instantly when you first apply it. This means it would not be a good product for a last minute night out because you would have to apply it the night before for it to have fully developed.

I have found that it has left me with no streaks but i think thats because i apply it with a tanning mitt which i feel can give you a streak free finish with every tan.

For the best result, i exfoliate with my exfoliating gloves then when i have come out of the bath or shower and  my pores have closed up. Using my tanning mitt i apply the tan all over my body but not my face or stomach because i have recently had my belly button pierced and it was recommended not to apply false tan to that area until it has properly healed.The next morning i moisturize all over my body. Later that night i apply another coat of the fake tan. I repeat this process everyday for the best and darkest look.

The bottle contains 140ml of product and it has lasted me about a month which i would say is about average.

Exposé streak free self tanning mousse give me a deep golden glowy tan to my skin. A really nice healthy glow. You do not look dirty and have to shower it off for it to look natural after the application but i feel like you need to give it 24-48hours to fully develop and then have a shower to get rid of the small smell you have. The only downfall in my eyes is that their is no guide colour, the mousse is white and drys clear and also the small smell but with fake tan i think you have to expect it really because i have never found a false tan that smells nice and stays smelling nice after being applied.

I will definitely be repurchasing this product and it will have a permanent place in my collection of fake tan but i will probably still try out other fake tans.
