HD Brows Grow Baby Grow

(Currently £14.98 on HDBrows.com)

The battle with my eyebrows has been going on since secondary school, when I realised that my big bushy brows were not cool at school and decided to get my hands on some tweezers! I think quite a lot of us girls go through the phase of over-plucking our brows and just not realising it, until we look back at photos. I was definitely someone who over-plucked - and now my brows are quite sparse and in some parts just refusing to grow back.

I decided to give HD Brows Grow Baby Grow a try, as it seemed quite promising from some of the reviews I read. Normal price, it's quite a lot of money (£29.95) but I thought if it works then it's worth it.

January 2014 Glossybox Review

I decided in December that the January Glossybox was going to be the last box that I received from my subscription. I had some glossy points to use up and so I didn't have to pay for this month's one - and I am SO glad that I didn't pay for it, as I reckon it's the worst box I have received since joining over a year ago.

I don't think I'm the only one who was disappointed this month - in fact the best thing about the Glossybox this month was the box itself! And the lovely ribbon!

The Tangle Teezer Brush

The tangle teezer brush has been around for quite some time now and there has been quite a bit of hype around the little product. I got my tangle teezer at Christmas and now I don't know why I didn't get myself one sooner! I absolutely love it!

The tangle teezer is designed to help detangle your hair when you get out the shower. It is meant to be a lot kinder to your hair than using a normal hair brush. The way it is is designed means that it pulls on your hair less and so brushing is a lot easier and nicer to do. Because it pulls on the hair less, it means you are doing less damage to your hair and so your hair should get more healthier over time too. 

Le Volume De Chanel

This is one of my favourite mascaras that I discovered last year. I'm yet to buy a full version of this, but I definitely want too. I just found that it really helped to separate my lashes and the colour is great. Lack of photos with this post, as they have disappeared, but couldn't resist posting it up. 

(Boots £24.00)

I was lucky enough to get sent a free sample of this mascara from Chanel. I would usually spend up to £10 on a mascara but I am actually considering saving up my pennies to buy this.

This mascara should give instant volume and intense curves from the first stroke. It will also make lashes longer, plumper and thicker.

Bourjois Bronzing Powder

This is one of my favourite bronzers! I really love the colour I can get from it and it still smells great! Apologies for the quality of photos btw - this post again is from a couple of years ago, but I think this is a great product to own! 

(Boots £6.99, ASOS £6.99, Superdrug £6.99)

So soon I shall be in Rome with my best friend and I can't wait! I have been thinking about which beauty products to take with me and I think a bronzer is definitely needed. I have chosen Bourjois bronzing powder. I was attracted to this bronzer due to the sweet chocolate fragrance it has and its reasonable price.

This product says it has glints of sunshine in the powder, which gives an immediate boost to your complexion. It has a lovely smell and an ultra-soft texture, which apparently will make you melt with pleasure! There is a choice of two shades, I have peaux claires (51) which is slightly lighter than the peaux mates (52).

Benefit Bad Gal Mascara

This post was written a couple of years ago now, but I still love this mascara and is a definite repurchase. 

When I saw Glamour Magazine was giving away free Benefit make-up, I couldn't resist buying it! And for only £2 for the magazine, I thought that it was a real bargain, especially as Benefit make-up is usually quite expensive. After much deliberation, I chose Benefit Bad Gal Lash Mascara (I have wanted to try a new mascara for ages too!). 

I think it is quite nice to have a sample sized item, as it means it's not a total waste if you don't like it.

New Year, New Blog (Kinda)

It's taken a little while to get back into blogging, especially as my original blog site lost all of it's photos in the transfer back over to blogspot. I really enjoyed being involved in the beauty blogging community and I think the new year has inspired me to start blogging again. I thought the best thing to do would be to start a new blog.

I'm going to post a few of my favourite blog posts from my original blog (Grace Louise Beauty) over the next few days (if I can find the photos on my computer) and then post some new ones! 

Thanks so much for reading!
