My Impressions of Ziaja Skincare

Hi All!!

So it's back to normality again for us all after the festive season!!

I have been absent from blogging and social media in general for the holidays because I wanted to totally relax and that I did for sure!!! 

So for my first post of 2016 I thought I would review a skincare brand I've been trying out since receiving them at the #DeiseBloggers event in November!!

ZIAJA SKINCARE

Firstly I'll begin by telling you this is a Polish brand that use natural ingredients and has just recently brought their products to Ireland!

With over 1000 products for ALL skin types it's impossible not to find a product from Ziaja that will work for you and your skin type!

Ziaja also have a Children's range suitable from newborns to kids!!

This range of skincare is 100% affordable as their products start from just 69c for a face mask and you will not pay more than 10 euro as stated on the following website 

http://originalbeauty.ie/

What I recieved at the event was the Olive Leaf range which was the first ever product to be made 26 years ago by the Polish Pharmacist which is also a top seller with Goats Milk great for sensitive skin and skin disorders and the Cocoa Butter Range (Next on my list as I'm Obsessed  with Cocoa Butter!!)

Olive Leaf - Gel Scrub 

Since I've been using this over a month now its fair to say I've seen results!! I would have quite a dry skin especially in the winter and since using this Micro-Exfoliator my skin has been super soft. My foundation glides on when applying and looks flawless each time. 

I use this every night in my skincare routine as the small mirco beads are not harsh like normal exfoliators, So this allows me to use it daily without any irritation. 

I have noticed my skin is brighter, soft and more radiant even without makeup on. I am delighted with the results and will continue to use this product as my dryness is nearly non existing at this stage!! 

This product is only €5.99 for their full size bottle (200ml) 

BARGIN

Marine Spa Algae - Deep Moisturising  Cream (Dry to Normal)

I also received this product at the event and have been using every night since. This cream is suited best to a 30 plus skin but has not stopped me using. Again when I seen this was suitable for Dry skin I needed to try it! This might sound like I'm raving but again, I'm loving the results so far!! I really feel my skin has become so hydrated and applying this at night stops the house heating at this time of year drying out my skin further!!

These are the only products I've used from Ziaja but needless to say I will be purchasing more, and definitely the Cocoa  Butter Range... Yum.

This skincare is what is suiting me and my views on it. What suits me may not suit you therefore it is important to know your skin type and what results you want.

And again as I said, These are my honest views, no nonsense or lies to sell this product to you.

I would definitely recommend trying this range for two reasons
1. Natural ingredient's
2. Affordable price's

I hope you've enjoyed this post!! See you in the next one!

PS... Makeup Brushes from Penny's X

Hello again!

Today's post is going to be on some goodies I recieved at the weekend when I attended the first ever Bloggers Meet Up in Waterford!! 

Each blogger recieved two goodie bags jam packed with lovely products!

But today I will be filling you in on the lovely brushes from the PS range from

PENNYS/ PRIMARK

Extremely affordable with a new improved quality!

Lets go!

#1

Foundation and Concealer brush (double ended)

So the larger flat ended side is the side you use to apply your foundation. The soft fibers allow for an even, streak free complexion. I personally don't use this side for foundation as I prefer a dense stippling brush but what I do like to use this side for is to apply a cream contour under the cheek bone as it gives a precise line that can be blended out!

Concealer side

This side is the smaller flat ended side that can be used to apply concealer under the eye, down the nose and on the Cupid's bow (above the lip). This is a nice size brush to use as it is small enough to be used on smaller areas (under the inner corner of the eye). 

#2

Double ended stippling brush

This is definietly my favourite of the three!! 

I use the fluffy angled side to buff and blend out the line created by the previous brush for contouring as I think it works very well for me!! You could also use this to apply foundation!

The smaller dense side above is also a favourite of mine. I think this side is great for blending in concealer if you don't like to use a beauty blender sponger (I've only recently started using mine) 

It will give an even finish as it blends into your foundation. 

I had this brush before getting another at the event and I'm delighted to have another!

#3

Contour Brush

Last but by no means least!! Another contour brush!! As many of these brushes can be used to contour, I prefer as I said a stronger dense brush for that.

Therefore I think this fab fluffy brush is perfect for applying a blush to the apples on your cheeks.

When applying blush I do so in circular motions but I also like to slightly blend into my contour, this will give a gradual look to your blush and will not leave any harsh lines!!

These brushes are fab for the price rang from €2.50 to €3!! They sell out very fast when in stores so if you do manage to see a full shelf of them definietly pick one up while you can.

Also a massive thank you to Pennys for generously giving us a fab little goodie bag that also included my favourite individual lashes along with a blush and highlighter!!

If you would like to see more pictures from the event simply search #DeiseBloggers into Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and you will also see many of the other lovely bloggers that attended! 

Until next time!!

Zoella - Scrubbing Me Softly Review

 Hello to my lovely followers!

I have to apologies  for being so quite lately but as you all know I am in my last year of college, getting ready for Cidesco exams and of course that has been the main focus over the last two weeks!!

But as I'm getting through it all now rather than later I'm finally getting the time to show you my FAVOURITE body scrub ever whilst I drink my 'tay' or tea (so Irish) and let this face mask set!!

So lets get started!

So the many of you may know of the lovely beauty and fashion blogger 'Zoella'. I firstly came across her on Youtube with many videos on Hair, Makeup, Skincare and much more!! So when I saw her range in Pennys (Primark) I had to pick something up! 

And of course it was the amazing body scrub!

I only have good things to say about this stuff!! If you're like me a prefer a tougher kind of scrub then this is for you!! I find some body scrubs are very light and don't exfoliate like I want it to! So when I first picked this up I wasn't expecting much as being disappointed with other left me thinking all products would be the same. But I was very wrong about that!

This scrub is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G,, seriously! 

The texture is a soft cream but not running by any means! There is no mess or fuss with this scrub (which again made me so happy)!

The exfoliating beads are course and jam packed in this tube which allows for the amazing effect on the body! 

The smell is fab as it describes on the tube as 'fruity' and enriched with blueberries and I can 100% back this up as I love the smell it leave on my skin!

ALSO this scrub is packed with Acai and Cocoa butter- And we all know how amazing cocoa butter is on the skin!!

If your still not sold on this I'll add that this is the perfect prep for Tanning! I use nothing else but this scrub before applying false tan and my skin has never looked so radiant! It will leave you with a smooth, even finish, smelling yummy and overall glowing!!

This scrub can be bought in penny's for €8.50 or you can purchase online at Cloud 10 Beauty for €9.99..

Also if you would like to see Zoella's blog I have left the link below, Her blog and website is amazing and full of great tips!

I hope you have enjoyed reading this review on my favourite body scrub ever!! 

I promise you won't regret buying this as it is a must have in every bathroom!!

Until next time,

Janat

Lanolips - Intense Golden Ointment Review

Hello to all my lovely readers!!
<3

I'm finally back in action! The last two weeks have been crazy as being away on holidays at the midterm stopped me from blogging and of course my college assignments took priority last week (yawn) !!

So FINALLY this week I get to bring you something I think is AMAZING and very much needed this time of year!!

Lanolips Intense Golden Ointment 

http://www.lanolips.com/uk/

So firstly I should start by saying I did not buy this from a shop or online. How I got my hands on this beauty was subscribing to GLOSSYBOX. Basically this company comes together with amazing brands from all around the world to bring you amazing products at half the price! I have subscribed to the £10 (€18) a month plan and every month I recieve a gorgeous box with 5 FULL SIZE products inside! Before sending items they will also ask for hair colour, skin colour, skin type and much more to ensure you get the best possible product for you!! 

http://www.glossybox.co.uk/beauty

So.. What is Lanolips? 

Lanolips is a brand created by Kirsten Carriol from South Australia!! Kirsten spent her childhood on a sheep farm where her love for natural ingredients blossomed from father. She sent a long time making this product perfect and in my opinion she has done just that perfectly!!

Lanolin is a Fatty substance that comes from freshly shorn sheep wool! It is commonly used to  moisturizer, treat or prevent dry, rough, scaly and itchy skin. This natural ingredient is just amazing and really will help with dry areas! But in this Ointment Kirsten has also added MANUKA HONEY,

 we all know how amazing that is !!

So this Intense moisturizer is packed with 60% lanolin, manuka honey and vitamin E! 

This moisturizer is thick in consistency so less is more in this case!! It has also been proved to last up to 48 hours!! WOW!! From using this just a week I have seen a huge difference in the hydration of my skin! I apply a small amount on my finger and use circular motions on my nose and forehead! Winter has always been my skins enemy.. But not anymore!!
So if you suffer with rough, dry or dull skin pick yourself up a tube of this gorgeous moisturizer!

This can be used ANYWHERE on the body

Get your own tube here at BOOTS for just €20, below is a link where you can buy this product and many more from the Lanolips range.
