#BEAUTY | Skincare newbies - SBC GELS

Im on a skincare journey right about now, so you are going to see a hella load of posts on me testing out different ranges ( i have a REN skincare post on the way!). Im a total makeup addict and love nothing more than creating makeup looks and using my skin as a canvas...BUT it gets me down when my pores are big or i start to break out and even have that odd dry patch where my foundation just sticks to it.

So im working on getting the smoothest base possible and also who just doesnt want clear skin anyway :)

Also i would be so greatful if anyone reading this actually has had a successful skin story or can recommend any products that they swear by then let me know!

Im getting into a routine of applying a cream before i sleep and when i wake up, i previously used the ultra face cream from Kiehls, well i still use it from time to time. I guess you could say it is my go to cream if im not in the midst if trying out others.

This vitamin ACE cream from www.sbcgels.co.uk is what im currently trying out and it is sure something different, it has little pink balls in that kind of pop or shall i say melt on the skin! They are called oxysomes.

I feel like its very refreshing when i put it on and does give you that instant glow. I dont tend to use this cream if im planning to apply my makeup straight afterwards as it is a "wet" or sticky kind of texture.

Staying on that note, if i am applying my make up straight after wards i use the collagen serum as it is a lot thinner in consistancy and can double up as a primer! Although this serum is more directed toward mature skin, i think its good for my dry patches on my face as it helps to hydrate and give my cheeks especially a more plump look.

I also really love the packaging of this bottle, it looks really high end. I have previously reviewed the Propolis range from SBC Gels here and it seems that the range has got so much bigger and better!!

The jasmine and evening primrose oil is a bath cream which take it from me, smells sooo calming and stress-free. Perfect addition to a candle lit bubble bath <3

#BEAUTY | SBC gels

One of my favourite ingredients for my skin, especially dry skin is manuka honey. So i tried out some of the honey products from the SBC Gels and havent stopped using them. They have replaced my usual products. So lets have a product break down! The manuka honey and orange blossom scrub has really fine bits in it which are very helpful for exfoliating, but as a they are super fine it is a lot more nicer to use than some products that have the larger exfoliating bits in them! Manuka honey & orange blossom body butter - as you have guessed by the name this is a body butter! They dont tend to be my go to product as i dont really like the consistancy. I love the smell of this, its so fragrent. After i have used the shower wash i either use this or the gel to get me some soft soft skin! These two are my favourite from the honey selection. There is the bath and shower gel (on the left) and the skincare gel . The bath and shower gel smells so strongly of hone

#TRAVEL | Liverpool

Its been a month since I visited Liverpool for the first time, its only right that I share my trip :) First of its a very friendly place, but I have come to learn that most places apart from London are....sorry London but its true. I stayed for 2 nights and 3 days and I would say that it was enough time to explore the main parts of Liverpool and get a vibe for it. Im happy that I can now sing "ferry across the mersy" and constantly shout.. I've been there! I've been there! Its the little things that make it worth it aha Im a sucker for being near water and also in the city centre and the hotel I stayed which was called the tune hotel was the perfect walk away from the river as well as the city. A 5 min walk to the famous Cavern Club. Museums are a plenty and I visited them all! My fave being the museum of Liverpool, lots of interactive fun things to do and to learn. I would recommend taking a part of the day to go on the bus tours o
