Avon Solutions Pure Pore-Fection self foaming cleanser



Why I bought it: I've decided I prefered foaming cleansers, because they tend to get my makeup off, also if your into researching a product like seeing reveiws like I am, then there where alot of good reveiws see http://www.makeupalley.com/ or this other website cant remember this website it called beauty something, its american lol. Also I'm an avon rep and looking at the catalogue too long made me want to buy something!lol

Cost: Right-this line is discontinued, you wont find it in any recent catalogues. I decided on this one because the one in my current catalogue was not self foaming it was just liquid and there where more good reviews for this product. I got mine from good old Ebay for erm I think approx £4. Which was good this included postage and packaging

Usage: your suppose to use it twice aday, the actual product is liquid but when you push the pump it comes out as thick foam.

My experience: This product is lush! It gets off all my makeup and when I step out the shower my skin feels so clean and refreshed. I'm not sure if it made a major difference but it is a good cleanser. However I am sure there are better products out there so I wouldnt buy it again. The cleanser didnt make my skin too dry, however on reviews on other websites some people did experience dryness and I can totally see that happening with this product. It has a lovely tingley feeling on my skin.

Recommendation: for the price its worth it however there are more better cleansers out there which are great for there price. People with sensitive or really combination skin should really use this product with caution cause while it would make the oily parts less oily it would also make the dry parts-very dry.

neutrogena triple moisture silk touch leave in


REVIEWING NEUTROGENA TRIPLE MOISTURE SILK TOUCH LEAVE IN CONDITIONER


Why I got it: search this product on youtube and you will get SOOO many good reviews, search on google-SO MANY!! I was in dire need of a GOOD moisturiser (obvs!!lol) but I didnt have such good moisturisers before and my hair was feeling wirey (not Good!) so I was desperate for a very moisturing moisturiser.


Cost: I live in the UK and this product is not avaliable cheapily here. The only company website was http://www.drugstore.com/ although it cost like £4.99

it cost £18 postage and packaging I'm not being silly or exagerating thats the price!check!lol anyway I resorted to Ebay (good old ebay!!) and I got for £11 that also included postage and packaging!


What it says on the container:



This silky leave-in cream melts effortlessly into strands moisturizng while
diminishing flyaways and frizz with lasting humidity protection. Hair stays
naturally soft and touchable all day-no flaking, heaviness, or stickiness. The
advanced formula helps improve hair quality with every use. Contains UV filters.

My Experience: I use it moisturise my hair in the day. Its not particularly moistursing but it does make my hair softer and easier to manage. Usually I put this on and then coconut oil so my hair is thoroughly moisturised. So moistursing I will give it a 3.5, when I put it on my hair is usually dry and in need of moisture however when I put it on although it makes my hair feel soft and managable it DOESNT moisturise rather coat it. My hair is usually straightened (I dont use relaxer) so my does feel moistursied easily in that state but when my hair is natural it WILL NOT do the job. Also I have also noticed that my hair changing in colour. I put it down to the sodium hydroxide in the product, I only noticed this when I read a negative review on http://www.drugstore.com/ it wasnt really a review more a rant about going natural and basically saying that the leave in had a harmful ingrediant -sodium hydroxide which is used in hair removal creams. I didnt take notice of it because if you look at the list of ingrediants its one of the last ones (2nd to fragrance) so theres pratically just traces but I think thats what stripping my hair. My sister doesnt notice any colour change but I'm sure there is. My hair is pratically black so change would be subtle.


Anyway due to that I only finished the bottle with no intention of buying it again. My new moisturiser of choice is Herbal essences long term relationship split ends leave in conditioner. I'll give out a reveiw for that soon!!

#4 Glorious Crown



You would be suprised how much hair has an impact on your day to day life.
In the first seconds of meeting someone I usually take note of their hair, this is because I think it sheds light on the persons character e.g. Plain hair=plain person. Infact plain person or plain hair spells insecurity: I dont think anyone would choose to blend into the crowd and be forgotten.one of my friends use to long thick hair up to her arse-no joke! and she liked it long but then as her confidence grew she cut it all off and got amazing layers with the classic sweeping fringe.

To be honest not since Summer this year I didnt care about my hair, my hair was always either in braids or extensions or in my latest addiction weaves. I loved weaves more than braids because to be honest it wasnt so ethnic-I felt like a uniform like black girls must wear braids...

Well anyway I used a weave until one day (wont go into so much detail) I got it removed. I use to hate my hair to the point that I made sure the minute I took it out I have a women to braid/weave my hair no more than 3days later-neithertheless to say my hair DID cut-like the whole of the bottom of my hair.



Whatever reason I thought I might as well look after my hair, so I went and bought boutique lined products(hair deserves the best!lol) and I remember looking at my hair in the mirror curls and all and I LOVED it-looking at the damage on the back of my hair made me feel shameful that I hated it. Goodness guys you know what I mean when you get a new weave and you dont think it quite suits you? Well my hair isnt like that it suited me instantly! it was at that point I decided I no longer will EVER wear braids/weaves anything! I was going natural!!!!

Obviously I want gorgouse long crown on my head so I looked on youtube for advice-so many amazing women with such gorgouse hair e.g PrincessD28 and Naturalveil-amazingly pretty can I say as well!!lol

Anyway I intend to update you guys on my hair growth and on products that I've used.

#3 Eyes window to the soul

You would be suprised how much your eyes have an impact on your face!



I've just found out that Celebrities even have like a 'eyebrow' stylist?! I was like, ok that's taking it abit too far but I've just come to realise how important eyes are to my or everyones overall look. Suprisingly although I dont give much attention to my eyes, I always consider myself 'dressed' once my mascara is on, and so does every one else in the world. So this tip is to make the most of your eyes.



I have like elephant eyelashes! Their poker straight and kind of short in my opinoin yet opticians and doctors seem to comment on how long my eyelashes are,I Think there just being polite! anyways my goal in this area is grow,thick, long eyelashes and make the most of them as I can. This is my plan of action!lol


1)Lipocils: it costs £20 and its suppose to make eyelashes grow longer, your again suppose to use it twice a day.

2) Eyelash curler: I want to invest on a really good eyelash curler, my eyes are honestly chinese like-very cat like even though I'm black-you'll see what I mean later! so I want like a chinese brand so I'm stuck between Shu Uemura or Shiseido.

3)Mascara: I've never considered myseld a mascara fend but cause my eyelashes are not that lush I will be looking out for a macara but I find the ones with primers seem to work well on me

4) Eyebrow plucking: Guys Im not some kind of hobbo mess but I have NEVER plucked my eyebrows that is because they are shaped the way they are naturally, I've never had reason to pluck them and no ones been like your eyebrows are like a werewolf so its not that bad but I want to try it out anyways!!

5) Makeover in MAC: My fave brand Mac, give out makeovers for £25 and I used that service once when it was my prom and they made my eyes AMAZING I've always wanted to the smoke eye look but because my skin is dark its so difficult to a black eye shadow which is pigmentated enough. Also I think a smokey eyelook in the daytime and darker one in the night time looks so sexy.

So I have just placed an order for lipocils from an ebay store found in Taiwan-ok guys I know it sounds dodge!! but it cost me £15 rather the £20 mainly because Im paying in pounds. The feedback is like 99.9% and the two that they have sold people have given postive feedback also I got an email today that my item is dispatched which is speedy seeing as I ordered it yesterday!!

so yeah, I will defo show you my before and after picks so you can judge for yourself, I've heard nothing but good things about this product so WATCH THIS SPACE!!

#1 Perfect Skin

I have terriiibbbleee skin!! oily with mild acne and I have never been able to have completely clear skin...EVER!! last time I had clear skin was when I wass 11, no joke!

my goal is just to have an even complexion-you'll see what I mean!! it really annoys me when I put makeup on and people say 'your skin is so good, mine is terrible' and they have like an outbreak but an even complexion! If you have just spots it will take at MOST A MONTH is get rid of, if you have hyperpigmentation or acne scars ect it will take like half a year-compare.
I will be updating this video EVERY MONTH so stay tune!!


I hope your greatful!! just put a VERY unflattering picture of me!!!! Obviously it will take a month to see if a regimen is working and it would also take several months for my skin to clear dark marks and all.

Regimen
Morning:
Wash face with neutrogena cleanser
Put Godiva toner on just T-zone
apply Fair and white cream on hyperpigmentation and allow to soak
Night:
Same as morning however twice a week I will apply the Glycolic acid night treatment (its too strong for everyday use!)
treatments:
I apply the acids alternate once aweek, in a 6week block and then a 3week break.

Everyones dream








I think everyone have or has had a point in their life when you feel like.. feel like you want a change


Like you can imagin how happy you would be if you did this that or the other and to be honest some of us (lets get it out here!) use self help books-no, look at them and think maybe I should buy it, and some us go as far as to buy it and then hide it so that;


a) if it does work, no one would the know the secrets to your success...probably thinking it was some form of epithany
or

b) it doesnt work, and you dont want the shame that someone knows you read that book!


Well...I've decided to blog it!


I want to buy the most sexiest girl by the time I leave for Uni, no joke! At least I'm honest about it, as sound as that phrase goes. So Im going to blog my progress, and ideas in hope I will stick to my...lets be honest slightly, 'superfical aim'!





But what the heck?!
