Philosophy Products to Review

Hello my lovelies,

I hope you are all doing so well.

I am at a really exciting point in my Youtube 'career'. I say it like that because to me it is fun so is like a hobby. Well anyway the exciting thing is I have now got the fun of companies actually wanting to work with me, as they have seen my reviews. So I am taking some products in that I think are worth talking about.

The first company that I have had stuff sent to me from is Philosophy. So I wanted to share with you the products I am going to be trying out and reviewing for you. I would love to hear from you if you have ever tried these products yourself.

So Philosophy were kind enough to send me the following products:

A set of 2ml foil packets of Hope in a Jar, one for day and one for night. On reading about it, they say it is a high-performance moisturiser for all skin types. The night time one says it is an intense retexturising moisturiser.

My concern about this product is that it tells you that it might heighten your sensitivity to the sun!! That does not sound great to me.. Perhaps not a good one to use in summer time lol...

A 2ml pump bottle of Miracle Worker. On the packet... Philosophy: your eyes are the windows to your soul, not your age. Visibly repair the appearance of deep wrinkles and past damage with an advanced anti-aging solution for your eyes, featuring our exclusive high-performance retinoid, witness bright-eyed ageless results.

A set of The microdelivery peel foil packets. On the packet: Philosophy: we pioneered a next generation medical microdermabrasion procedure that rapidly resurfaces as it replenishes the skin with vitamin c. the treatment is known as the microdelivery peel and is light years ahead of traditional microdermabrasion. we are proud to offer an in home version of this revolutionary microdermabrading treatment. the peel is ideal for all skin types. results are immediate and remarkable. Step 1, you are ever changing. new endeavours, new ideas. let change pave the way, and reveal a new you. Step 2. micro changes lead to monumental renewal. you learn as you grow, revealing your best self.

A 2ml foil pack of eye hope. On the packet: multitasking eye cream for dark circles, puffiness and lines.
This one I am intrigued by as I have all of the above most days, so a few days trial will let me know what I think. nice to have two options for eye cream as well.

6ml sample of purity made simple: On the packet: 3-in-1 cleanser for face and eyes

6ml foil packet of the microdelivery exfoliating facial wash: On the packet: A daily exfoliating facial wash

1.5ml bottle of living grace fragrance. It seems nice. I would have preferred a spray sample or at least a lid with one of the wee stick things to dab on to myself but I will still try it out.

Phew so these are the products I will be trying out They also sent a we card to thank me for trying their products and enclosed a booklet with more information. I am excited to try some of the products. It is bed time now so I am going to try out the hope in a jar night time and eye hope as the names seem like they should go together.

Have you ever tried this brand? Let me know what you thought.

Thank you for reading. Don't forget to check out my Youtube Channel for other reviews and videos.

Love you all,

Lynds

Confessions of a Palette Addict


Hello everyone, my name is Lyndsey and I am a Palette Addict. Actually I am just addicted to all make up lol. Anyways, I did a tag video over on my youtube channel and rather than show you every single one of my palettes in that video I decided that I would actually show you them right here. So you could see them a little better and for longer without having to listen to me ramble. Plus I get to type while head dancing in my chair to Journey singing Don't stop believin' and singing really badly along with them lol.

Anyway I will show you the palettes I have here and tell you the brand, where I got them and if I can how much they are. 

 
This is my Smoked palette from Urban Decay. This was my first ever high end palette. I absolutely love the colours in this. You can purchase from Debenhams for £36/$49

Naked 3 by Urban Decay £37/$54

Naked 2 Palette from Urban Decay £37/$54

Deluxe Palette from Urban Decay I bought this at a market and am not sure of price, around £20

These two palettes have the same cover so I only added the one picture these are from Federico Mahora, They are gorgeous and very pigmented. They are a recent addition to their collection and I love them. I have only recently got the purple one. The purple one is Moonlight and the browns is Sunshine. They are £14.99 each

These trios are also Federico Mahora, they have changed in design from I purchased these but the pigmentation has not. £8.99 

Naked Basics from Urban Decay £20/$28



These are my MUA palettes and they are fantastic priced for £4 each. They are Undressed, Glitter ball, Starry Night and Pretty Pastels.

Sleek Divine Primer Palette

W7 six of the best range in No1, 2 and 3


Wet n Wild Mega Eyes Twilight Glow and I can't find the name of the one on the right.

You would be forgiven for wondering what the difference in these two are lol. They are very similar. Technic Eye Shimmer in No1 and 2

This is by Saffron and is glitter Gel shadows. They are so pigmented!



Smokey Eyes Bourjois in Classic Smokey



This was my most used shadow for so long. It is Virgin Vie Blushing Pink. This company is no longer going but you can purchase these quads on ebay for around £5

These are Rimmel Eyeshadows. Two of which were bought in the poundshop and have pigmentation to worthy of less than £1. The other I am unsure of where it came from. The purple is fever, the one beside is Thrill Seeker, and the Traffic Stopping Trio is Speeding.



This was what I had right behind me while I was taking photos. She is my wee shadow. This is Marmalady or Marmie or Mooman depending on what mood I am in lol. 


This is my Ebay Palette that I got for less than £10 with 120 shadows, which are mostly very very pigmented!!

This was a shadow set I bought a few of in the poundshop. They don't seem to have a name or number code. 

I bought the magnetic palette on ebay, for around £10 and the shadows came in a bundle of goodies I was gifted by a lovely friend. 

This is Collection's Smokey Eyes in No3 Smokey

This has no name or number it came in a set called Bronze Collection. 
These are Lipglosses which I forgot to mention in my video. 

This is Kelly Brook Natural eyes in Lana these are £3.99 in New Look

I love this brow bar. The colours are so good. I bought this for £3.99 in B&M

My DIY palette of Lipsticks from W7. The palette was bought for a few pound on ebay. 

This is Balm Jovi by The Balm. I love these shadows they have fab names. 

W7 In the Buff. Supposedly a dupe for Naked 2. I am posting a video on that topic next week. 



Wet N Wild in Comfort Zone. Technically my mums but as I do her make up her stuff lives with my stuff lol. 

Physicians Formula in Canyon Classics. Once again its mums. These were both sent by a lovely friend from America. 

Phew we got there. All of my palettes. I did leave out two makeshift lipstick palettes and a conceal or palette which I cannot for the life of me find. It is so annoying because I loved that concealer palette!!

Anyway my darlings. If you would like reviews on particular palettes or make up looks using them please let me know in the comments section. I have a few ideas already for a few. I am filming a comparison video tomorrow for Naked 2 and W7 In the Buff. I will also post swatches here for you guys also. Anyway I hope you have enjoyed my video and reading this. Don't forget to check out my channel if you haven't done so already and also check out the giveaways on here and the channel as well. 

See you all soon. Lots of love

Lynds. xxxxx
