Buche de Noel Facial Cleanser Review | Lush

Lush Cosmetics has been the store for me when it comes to buying facial cleansers to help maintain my acne levels from blowing up and to keep a good skincare routine going. Over the past year or so, I have purchased 3 cleansing products from them, including the item I'm about to give a review on, the Ocean Salt Scrub and 'Let The Good Time Roll' cleanser. When I was using the Ocean Salt Scrub, I did actually write a mini review on it, so if you're interested in reading it, the link is (here). I can give props to Lush overall for a lot of things, including the fact that they make amazing products, but I love how persuasive their staff are trained to be. As soon as I walk into the store, there's always someone coming up to me asking if I need help and if not that, they're literally on stand-by mode. This lovely worker recommended to me the Buche de Noel (linked here), so I thought I'd pick it up, as I usually trust their opinion, so if you're interested on knowing my personal opinion, then please keep on reading and I hope that you enjoy :)

Glitter A Little.

I reckon the title is a little vague. A little dishonest. Maybe even a little fake. Actually a whole lot of fake BECAUSE these nail polishes are the bomb.com and could light up your life! All of sudden these high street shops are coming out with their own branded makeup and beauty products, which are actually amazing. Amazing in packaging, amazing in selection, amazing in pigmentation, amazing in practically everything and probably my fave aspect ---- ££££££! If you'd like to know more about my thoughts on these beauties and see some real-life "swatches", please keep on reading and I hope that you enjoy :)

Mac's Fix+ vs. Makeup Revolution's Oil Control Fixing Spray.

If you're interested in finding out more about these two products please keep on reading and I hope that you enjoy :)

My Top 8 Most Used BRUSHES.

Ahhh brushes. They could just be the main reason for the perfect faces of Huda Beauty and NikkieTutorials, other than of course the fact that they're amazing at applying makeup and are naturally beautiful anyway. In today's post, I'm going to be talking about my top 8 most used brushes, essentially all of the brushes I use in my everyday makeup routine. So stay tuned if you're interested in knowing what are some of my faves to use on my face and why - Let's just jump straight into it! :)

Hey guys welcome back to my blog and sorry for the lack of posts here on Macaroons Makeup & Me!

Whilst I was in Italy I visited SEPHORAAAAAAA and I was literally in heaven.. the amount of makeup AND especially seeing the brands that I don't have in England was amazing!

Sooooo read on and I hope you enjoy!

How To: STROBE!

Hey guys welcome back. So today I'm going to share with you all how to strobe. And I'm sure you're thinking what is this "strobing" term that has taken over the makeup industry? Well let me enlighten you.. It's essentially the new contouring (not that I will ever stop contouring) but all it really is is over the top, too the extreme highlighting. Now I've always been a fan of highlighting and contouring my face, so this is kind of the perfect opportunity to play with one technique more than the other. If you'd like to know what I use to make my face glow and how to achieve that look please keep on reading and enjoy! P.S I hope to carry on this HOW TO series :)

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog. In my last post (ABH Cream Contour Kit Review) I mentioned that I would be doing an ABH Liquid Lipstick review, so here it finally is! Whilst obsessing over the matte lip craze, the liquid lipstick that I wanted arrived to my house along with the Cream Contour Kit and the first thing that I wanted to do was write about it (plus try it on of course ;P).

Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Contour Kit Review

Hey guys, how are you all? A couple of weeks ago I got my aunt in America to buy me the Anastasia Beverly Hills (ABH) Cream Contour Kit in Medium and one ABH Liquid Lipstick in the colour Vamp! On Thursday when I came home from school, I found the two beauties waiting for me on top of my desk. I was so happy, it was unbelievable, I was literally jumping with joy. Today's post is going to be a review on the contour kit and I will be writing a separate post on the Liquid Lipstick review. I have seen and read many different reviews on both of these products from both bloggers and Youtubers and thumbs up all round.

Spring Lookbook

Hey guys, how are you all? So whilst on holiday in London, I did a bit of going out and that resulted in some outfit pictures and I only came back yesterday and that same day my family and I had a dinner invite to one of our family friend's house, so I dressed up a little. And today I'm going out with my friend Hollie to see "The Duff" and hopefully am going to take some nice pictures of my outfit for you guys! I'm super excited if you can't tell, but before I get started on the actual post, I've been wanting to share something with you all first. FASHION PASSION (my blog) has been up and running for around 8 months now but I'm not totally happy with the way it is. I feel like the name doesn't really connect with me or what I write about so I've changed the name to: MACAROONS, MAKEUP & ME! WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? because I really need your feedback asap. I feel like that name is more diverse and is much nicer. Also I think that I'm going to change my blog design to spice things up a little. But without further ado, if you'd like to see my outfits, please keep reading and I hope that you enjoy. 

hijabi barbie.

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog. Today the weather was really shitty (excuse the language), but it's true. I wanted to go out to town to do a little shopping, especially because I wanted to buy a memory card for my camera. Anyway that didn't end up happening because of the stupid rain, so instead my sister and I decided to do my makeup and hijab and it kind of turned into a mini photoshoot, using her iPhone 4S as our camera. So please keep reading if you're interested in how I achieved the above look and I hope that you enjoy.

some LUSH products.

OBVIOUSLY  NOT MY PIC - SOURCE' TUMBLR

Hey guys, how are you all? So finally, finally, finally the holidays have arrived after a very long wait, honestly I cannot express how much school has been stressing me out lately so these two weeks have really been needed! Obviously some 'ME' time involves pampering essentials so I thought why not go to the LUSH place its self. (You see that pun?? lol I'm so lame :D) Anyway, if you'd like to know my top three picks, please keep reading and I hope you enjoy! 

#GetToKnowMe TAG.

Hey everyone! This post is a little different today as you may have guessed already. After having my blog for nearly 7 months now, I still feel like I haven't really connected with my readers, therefore I thought it only appropriate to do the Get To Know Me Tag. So if you'd like to me a little bit better, please keep reading and I hope you enjoy! 

MAC makeup.

Hey guys, how are you all? Sorry about the lack of frequent posts, I've really been lacking in ideas and I haven't got any motivation or inspiration sadly. Anyway on Saturday I spent the day in Bath with my sister, as it was her birthday and we had a great time. One of the reasons I went was because I needed to buy a new foundation, preferably from MAC. We both walked to where the MAC store used to be and were surprised to find many other new makeup brands there like NARS and Clinique. It shows how long we hadn't visited, as we were very confused and had to go inside and find out that they had expanded. Please carry on reading if you'd like to know more about the things I bought!

updated makeup collection

MAKEUP MAKEUP MAKEUP, what more could a teenage girl want? For the last two years now my collection has been growing more and more, with me buying more products and being introduced to amazing brands. I thought since the last time I talked about the makeup I've been using was quite a while ago, I'd do an updated post on the latest of what I've been wearing and buying. If you're interested, please keep reading!

Hey guys... guess who's finaaallllyyyy 14???... MEEEEEE! It was my birthday on Thursday and I honestly had a great day, all due to my friends at school. My friend Sushi got me a balloon, which of course drew attention to me, but too be fairly honest, who doesn't like a little attention on their bday? The best part of the day was coming home to see presents from my sister on my bed :D:D:D I WAS SO EXCITED! The rest of the day was a bit of a bore, but I sure do love my family. Yesterday it was my birthday party and I invited all of my friends to my house and a meal at Kaspas, which was great by the way!
