My five item's for 2016 Wishlist!

Hello and welcome back to my blog!!!!

So for today's blog post I thought I would something different and write myself a Wishlist!! On this list I will include products that I gave heard amazing things about and products I think will thrive for 2016!!
So let's get started

#1 Too Faced - Born this Way Foundation 




Too faced cosmetics has been a massive hit since stalls have been set up in shops like Debemhams and since getting the Chocolate Bar palette for Christmas I've been mad to try some of their other products! 
This foundation is a Medium to Full coverage which is what I look for in any foundation. It is also oil free and I think this would be amazing for the summer months when our skin is generally good due to all that sun (if we're lucky here in Ireland). I have watched many tutorials on this foundations and it looks very flawless, easy to apply and a little product ones along way. This retails at €36 and can be bought online! 


#2 SoSueMe Contour Palette



 Suzanne Jackson has just recently launched her new Contouring Palette and it looks devine!! It has all the perfect shades I would love in a palette together. In this palette you have three cream
concealers and two powders. There are 6 shades ranging from a banana powder to a cocoa shade for contour to a HIGHLIGHTER, YESSS SUE!! When I seen her YouTube video on revealing this palette I immediately had FOMO (Fear of missing out). This palette should be available in pharmacy's soon and retails at €30! NEED


#3 Vanity Area 



This has been a NEED of mine for so long!!! I have looked into creating an area for makeup and all things beauty but due to having a small room it can't happen just yet!! I dream to have an amazing mirror with all the light bulbs and drawers full of makeup!! I'm loving that picture above!
Here's to hoping!! Haha 



#4 Inglot 4ss Brush 



This is a brush that's been on my mind for a while now and seeing so many of the Inglot makeup artist use it makes me want it more. This brush is used mainly to create the famous Inglot smoky eye.. If you follow anyone working got Inglot you'll know how much they love to BLEND and smoke it out!! I've seen the girls use this for blending concealer and foundation also... So this brush really has more an one use.
This brush retails at €22! 


#5 NYX Suede Cream Lipstick




I have yet to see these babies in stores yet!! I have become literally obsessed with liquid lipsticks and I'm loving so many of the colour this Suede range comes in!!
I will definitely be comparing these to the Sleek liquid lipsticks as they're my favourite at the minute..
If anyone knows where I can purchases these PLEASE let me know!!!


Those are just 5 items I'm loving at the moment that I need not want in my life!!! I'd love to hear from any of my followers the products you love and all your suggestions.
This was just a very light hearted chat for today so I hope this as giving some of you some inspiration for the summer to come! 

Until next time lovelies,
Janat

The TMI Tag!

Image result for tmi tag questions list

Hello lovelies 
So I was recently tagged by the lovely Lyanne Hennessy from ''Beauty and the Brunette'' some questions from the TMI tag.. YAY
Here is Lyanne's Facebook like below;
https://www.facebook.com/TheBeautyandtheBrunette/?fref=ts

I decided to pick 20 good questions from the tag to really let you get to know me as some of questions took away from the topic!...
So lets go!!

  1. How tall are you?; I'm definitely on the shorter side of the scale being 5'2 and a HALF... The half matters!!!
  2. How old are you?; I am 20 years old.. Fun Fact that shocks everyone I also share my birthday with my twin brother!
  3. Any tattoo's?; Yes two.. One on my ribs in Arabic meaning 'Dad' and a rose piece on the top of my leg.
  4. Any piercings?; I have my ears done since I was 5 and I also have my bellybutton done.. And I love it.
  5. Favourite show?; Hollyoaks!!! Its the only soap I watch and I'm obsessed! I'm actually watching it right now.
  6. Favourite band; If I had to pick one it would be Kodaline who are an Irish band, but I generally like a lot of bands and music.
  7. Something I miss; My lovely Dad who passed away nearly 8 years ago.
  8. Zodiac sign? Cancer... I'm a Crab which means I'm loyal, dependable, caring, adaptable, and responsive, Not too bad haha!!
  9. Quality you look for in a partner? Someone who is caring, affectionate, funny and loyal. So everything my boyfriend is :)!!
  10. Last show you watched? Making a Murderer and my brain is melted!!!! If you haven't watched it yet you NEED to!
  11. Favourite food? Hahaha... Chicken! And I love crisps.
  12. Last place you were? I went to Turkey in October with my boyfriend. I loved the holiday obviously because of who I went with but I didn't enjoy Turkey as a country.. Just not my cup of tea.
  13. Favourite piece of jewerelly? My gorgeous rose gold watch by Guess that my boyfriend got me for my 20th birthday!!
  14. Fears? WATER.. Because I'm not a great swimmer and I'm afraid of drowning. I have to be able to touch the floor so being 5''2 you can imagine how limitied I am in a pool haha!
  15. Meaning behind your blog name? I used the word Blossoming because I wanted to symbolise the growth of something and in this case, my blog :)
  16. Favourite quote? ''Everything happens for a reason'' 
  17. Place you want to visit? Too many places are on my list! So ... Paris, Oz, New York, Thailand the list goes on!! 
  18. Favourite flavour of sweet? I'm not a big sweet person but I love cheese...
  19. Where do you go when your'e sad? Bed.. I love my bed!
  20. Loud music or soft? Depending on my mood I like loud when I'm in a great mood and ready for a sing song. Soft music probably when I'm tired but I also prefer to turn off the radio in a car if I'm tired or talking.. Which is all the time hahah!

I feel so blunt writing without emojis!! Anyways those are just 20 questions from the TMI tag that everyone has been doing recently. It's nice to just write something light hearted and of course letting you all get to know me that little bit better.. 
That's all for today and I hope you all enjoy your weekend, I definietly will as I'm seeing Kevin Hart on Friday night in Dublin!! I'm too excited!!

See you all soon,
Janat

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 

Ziaja Olive Leaf Gel Scrub Bottle


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)
Ziaja Marine Algae Spa Deep Moisturising Cream tub
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!!
