#REVIEW | You MUST binge watch these NETFLIX shows

I am now back to flicking through Netflix, deciding what to binge watch next. Once you have typed with much difficulty… psykolgifal thrilkers ….and then deleted and re typed, PHYSCOLOGICAL THRILLERS , browsed through the comedy section and realised you have seen it all or don’t fancy this or that, definitely NOT that…then its no fun anymore. So I am going to tell you what exactly YOU should be binge watching on your television, not just any television mind you…make sure its high definition, with crisp displays like the Oled TV Panasonic to get the best viewing!       *there are NO spoilers   : )* The following programmes I recommend are my personal favourites and I either became obsessed and finished the whole series in a day or 2 OR I couldn’t wait until the next episode went live :) 1.        The Sinner – Watched in a day…a day I tell you. I had the numbest bum after, but it was worth it . Jessica Biel is the main character and she kills a man, unprovo

#SKINCARE | Nip+Fab - You NEED this scrub if you want smaller pores!

This is the first time I have used any product from NIP+FAB, and as any skincare product or brand I try for the first time I'm always unsure of how it will work with my skin. Obviously when you read reviews of products its from someone's personal use and doesn't always mean it will work the same on your own, but  I believe this product could help out a lot of skin problems. Everyone needs to exfoliate so the old skin shifts and the new skin has life :) this product is honestly now my holy grail.....like I'm Holly Golightly when she finally finds the cat with no name after all the emotional torture of not knowing where he is! (such a dramatic comparison but we'll go with it aha) I bought it when it was on offer for £6 something and I believe its £9 normally, but truly its worth the £9 ; when my one runs out I definitely will be buying another. As you can see from the photo its a sort of white paste, with the exfoliating bits in it. I massage it all over

#BEAUTY | Joan Collins Timeless Beauty Event + Makeup Review/Swatches

Welcome to the glamour. Not gonna lie, my makeup desk is now oozing as much glamour as a starlet from 1950's Hollywood with this lot on it :) #allthegoals. I went to a makeup masterclass by Joan Collins makeup artist *still pinching myself* and was given the most lovely goody bag! Just to be in the same room as Joan Collins make up artist was a big deal for me as I adore the whole Hollywood era. The event itself was so awesome, to learn more about the products and how much Joan Collins herself is involved and the back story of it was fab. If you want to see the masterclass the event was filmed and is on the Facebook page of the Joan Collins Timeless Beauty. Eyeliner + Mascara : So I already had the brown eyeliner and I loved it and now I have it in black also, you can read my review here . I have been using the mascara non stop since I received it as I find the brush to be great for a non clumped look. The mascara consistency itself is not flaky.  Eyeshad

#BEAUTY | Models Own foundation stick and colour chrome eyeshadow review

This foundation stick was about a 1 minute decision, I saw on their twitter that they released these and I bought it right there and then. I suppose I bought it so quick because I normally talk myself out of makeup purchases...when you have so many foundations, eyeshadows, lipsticks how do you justify another one aha *inner self - " there is no such thing as too many " The price was also another reason for the purchase as at £9.99 it was worth a try, seeing as it is my first time using a stick foundation! Its super compact, super easy to apply and to my surprise, (I cant say my expectations were that high...I was just being sceptical AF) so easy to blend! I think I lucked out on choosing the correct colour (15) as I wasn't sure which colour to go for but I guess I make better decisions under pressure!  Are you wondering about coverage? I would say it is a medium to full coverage with the added bonus to touch up throughout the day without it looking patchy. 

#SKINCARE | REN Perfect Canvas Serum

REN is a brand I’ve only been familiar with for a short while, and although I see it most days where I work I never really had the urge to use it due to my stubborn thoughts that it is just like any other skincare brand. Sceptical Sarah for you. But after attending a training session all about REN skincare, the story behind it and a deeper look at the ingredients I decided I should really give it a go and quickly took back my stereotypical thoughts. REN recently launched a new product called: The perfect canvas finishing serum, which I was lucky enough to get a whole bottle of my own from the training session to try. My first thoughts were how aesthetically pleasing the bottle was, it looks clean , it’s the right size for the hand and has an easy to use dropper applicator. To touch it feels super smooth, I feel like that’s just a taster of what it feels like on the skin!  Now, I had been using a few of REN’s other products hand in hand with using the Perfect Canvas
