Zoella Beauty and Lifestyle Christmas Collection Reviewed

Hey beaut's!

You may have seen that recently myself and my friend Kate got the chance to go down to London to visit Zoella's Winter Wonderland! We had an hour to explore and look at all of Zoella's new beauty and lifestyle Christmas collections - which where amazing by the way - and on the way out we was given a lovely goodie bag with four of the new launches inside so I thought I'd share my thoughts on them all now that I've had the chance to use them quite a bit.

Snow'ella Body Mist 100ml £12.00 / Winter Wonder Hand Cream £6.00

Zoella's Christmas beauty collection is available in Superdrug and Feel Unique this year and theres quite a few things within the range that I think will be fast sellers, the Snow'ella Body Mist being one of them! The scent of the mist is super fresh, bright, clean and snow like with a flurry of stunning notes such as peony, refreshing mint and pink pepper. Can we all just appreciate how gorgeous the bottle is too, it's a whopping new 100ml size and the pom pom detail is mega cute, I love it! The Winter Wonder Hand Cream carries the same scent as the body mist and the same formula as last years gingerbread hand cream so I knew I'd love this as I went through tubes of last years hand cream. It's super nourishing, non sticky, soaks into my hands quickly and the scent lingers for hours, it's such a Autumn/Winter staple for me!

Cosy Vibes Mug £8.50

The Cosy Vibes Mug is part of Zoe's lifestyle range which is exclusive to Boots and is in their fab 3 for 2 offer which I love, you cant beat a bit of Boot's 3 for 2 at Christmas can you! The mug itself is a decent size for all those hot chocolates, teas and coffees and the design is super cute and so Instagram-able! The lifestyle range actually has a forest green/copper theme which I think work so well together, and even though everything has a festive feel it's not too in your face and you can definitely use everything all year round! 

Bento Box Stationery Set £12.50

Finally the Bento Box Stationery Set has all of your stationary basics covered, theres  

two pencils, a rubber, a ruler, cute arrow shaped paperclips, washi tape and of course and notepad to quickly jot things down. I love this set, not only is it pleasing on the eye but super practical too.

You can find the Lifestyle range exclusively in Boots HERE and the Beauty range is available in Superdrug HERE!

What have you got your eye on from the Christmas Collections this year beaut's? I'd love to know!

Perfect Brows With Benefit!

 Hey beaut's!

I'm really into perfecting my brows at the minute, I used to hate doing them but now I find it so satisfying getting them perfect and on point, no makeup look is complete without a pair of gorgeous brows after all is it he he. Recently I've been giving some of Benefits brow products a whirl, they have so many brow products to choose from in Debenhams which has us beauty lovers literally spoilt for choice, they've certainly catered to all of our brow needs that's for sure. I'm already a huge fan of the Gimme Brow by Benefit so I had high hopes for Benefit's other brow goodies, and I've definitely found a couple of new favourites here.

Foolproof Brow Powder* £20.00

 The Foolproof Brow Powder is so easy to use and I'd highly recommend it for beginners, it helps you create a natural looking full brow in just two simple steps. The little palette has the cutest eyebrow-shaped pan which is split into two going from light to dark which helps mimic the look of a natural brow, because you always want to start off lighter at the beginning of your brow and then darken up the tail of the brow so the split pan helps you out a lot. The formula of the brow powder within the palette is lovely, it picks up on the brush well and blends into my brows with ease, definitely one to try if your prefer a softer, natural brow.

Precisely, My Brow Pencil* £20.00

Brow pencils are something I don't really reach for often because I have a tendency to be slightly heavy handed with them, but Precisely, My Brow has totally erased my brow pencil fear. Precisely, My Brow is my new favourite brow product (say whatttt), it has a twist up, ultra fine tip which draws on incredibly natural looking and precise hair like strokes and the handy spoolie on the other end of the pencil is the perfect size to brush through my brows before or after application. The texture is really nice too, it's creamy enough to give good colour payoff without added too much pressure which was always my downfall, but waxy enough to stay in place all day, it's even smudge proof and waterproof, I LOVE this little pencil so much.

Ka-Brow!* £20.00

Benefit's Ka-Brow is a cream-gel brow pomade which comes in a little pot with a 'not half bad' built in brush which is super handy for when your on the go. The formula itself is really nice and easy to work with, it creamy enough to blend well with my brows but still pigmented enough to do individual brush strokes creating natural looking brow hairs, it's also waterproof too which make it super long lasting without going hard or flakey, and I can confirm that once this stuff has set it isn't budging all day, I can promise you that!

3D Browtones Eyebrow Enhancer* £20.00

Benefits 3D Browtones is a totally new kind of brow product for me, I've never tried anything like it before and to be honest I never knew something like this even existed for brows until now. 3D Browtones is a slightly shimmering/metallic brow gel that allows you to either soften the look of dark brows, or add dimension to paler brows, whilst holding them in place at the same time. It's such a clever product which I absolutely love and has become a staple in my brow routine now, it really does make my brow hairs look like brow hairs and not overly filled in, and fear not even though it has a metallic formula your brows don't actually look sparkly thank goodness he he.
