I have used a simple face scrub a lot recently and find it really makes a difference to your skin and makes a better Base for my makeup after using it x

My heroes are Max Factor Satin Brow eyebrow as i have no eyebrows lol and Benefits POREfessional, can’t live without either, and I love Bourjois blushes in their little round pots .
I never tried any MAC product and I would love to win this giveaway to try it for the first time! This month I reached a lot to my favorite moisturiser by Caudalie and for my favourite foundation: the Healthy Mix Serum by Bourjois. Xo!
I use Loccitane the most often – I like everything about their products (except that I can barely afford them)
I particularly like the precious night cream
They are beautiful products, aren’t they! I am signed up to their mailing list and they often send great offers and deals! ?x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
Beauty wise I can’t be without my liz earle cleanse & polish & make-up wise I keep reaching for my Maybelline Push Up Drama Mascara it adds a little lift to my lashes without being heavy & clumpy.
My beauty hero is Kim kardashian she always looks flawless and contoured well love her make up also kylie Jenner. I’d love try her new lipsticks but always sold out to fast. I’d love try this product the product I’m loving at the min is younique liquid foundation it’s fab and even covers tattoos xx
I recently got the RCMA no color powder and believe you me its the best one i have used so far. I have been using it for a month now, wear it almost everyday to set my makeup and get asked by all my girls about the reason behind my flawless makeup. Highly recommended.
Bumble and Bumble Full Potential shampoo is a must! It leaves my hair feeling so soft with a shine to it. I then follow with LAB35 leave-in conditioner spray which also adds to the softness and shininess. It also smells really good!
The Mac prep and prime lip primer is my ultimate base hero! It turns cheap £5 lippies into long lasting staples and I cannot live without my Body Shop vitamin c energising face spritz, which i use as a face prep and setting/fixing spray – it’s so refreshing too so perfect for summer
This month I’ve been totally into natural oils during my skincare night routine. After cleansing my face, I use organic hydrosol as a toner (these days in love with melissa hydrosol which refreshes and sooths my skin to the perfection!), then I mix in my palm a drop or two of hyaluronic acid, AloeVera and essential organic oil (Rose Hip Seed Oil is my hit) – such prepared mixture I apply on my face. Trust me, it works miracles 🙂
Greetings,
This is amazing. Thanks so much. I love natural oils, so I will definitely be trying these recommendations! ? Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
Hi!
I loved using the Mac Mineralize Foundation in NC30. It is my favourite product of the year! I buy it in its original price. Its 150$. I’m so jealous that you get a discount. I don’t have to explain to you all about its amazingness.. Considering that you’re the Mac expert.I really want to try the Mac Strobe Cream but I’m to broke for it.I hope that you give the chance to try it.I literally follow your blog from the beginning. I think it’s safe to say that I love you, Kat.
What a lovely comment. Thanks for the support! ? I’m not an expert by any means, but I love learning about new things! xx Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
Hello! Thank you for the giveaway!! ^^
The products that I most used this month are the ”Relentlessly Red” and ”Candy Yum Yum” lipsticks by Mac! I love them and they have so summery colours, they fit perfectly my summer in Greece! 🙂
As a starter, I’ve tried MAC lipstick. I like their shades of red. 🙂 And for skincare, I’ve tried products from Neutrogena and Aveeno. I’d have to stick with these for my sensitive skin.
Ruby Woo seems to look great on everyone. I just have to pluck up the courage as a non-lipstick wearer! ? I’m sold on Aveeno with so many recommendations! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
I use Kiehls Midnight Recovery Oil every night, it works WONDERS! It’s like £60 a bottle but I’ve repurchased 3 times now, that’s loyalty! I’ve been loving the Dusty Girls Earth Cream as a light bb cream, and their mineral blush for a soft summer flush. I’ve also been loving my Becca X Jaclyn Hill face palette! Honestly I could list about 10000 items.
I love oils! I am totally checking out Kiehls as I know a lot of people who like the brand. I need you as my guru as you seem to have the knowledge on what’s great out there! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
My heroes are my ancestors and villagers back home, they came up with remedies that helped alot, and if i was to choose my favourite skincare, tea tree probably
Double Wear is a big favourite amongst so many. I got a voucher for a 10 day trial, so I’m finally going to give it a go! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41

I’ve been loving korean beauty products lately! Their skincare products are simply amazing and the makeup has the cutest packaging. Been loving the Mizon snail repair cream and Tonymoly lip products. Foundation I’ve been reaching for the most this month is the Bourjois one, great stuff!
Yessss! What a list! So many recommendations for Aveeno! But, I love the sound of the eye cream. I must hunt that down as the Clinique one I’ve been using is almost out! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
Ooh, thanks Agnes. I’m really enjoying discovering new brands from across Europe. Some great things coming from Poland! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
This month the makeup stars for me were Kleem organics face serum, Tarte smooth operator, and Rimmel London nude lipstick, I was so surprised to find the perfect nude in Rimmel London!
Recently I’ve been ruining my skin quite a bit with my face scrub so right now I’m all about The Body Shop’s Aloe line, which I’m really enjoying. Especially the foamy face wash❤
I’ll have to look out for that. I have the same problem. Especially now the weather is starting to transition! ?x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
Hello. My hero is the one and only : Clean and Clear active clear speed cleaning acne gel. I’d been struggling from acnes for months, and I was amazed when I tried this gel for the first time. It makes my acne disappear faster.
My hero is clinique i love clinique especially the fact how my skin is super oily and clinique actually takes away the oil as well as moisturizing my skin clinique products doesn’t leave my skin oily at all when i apply my makeup
I am a big Clinique fan, too! Their products really work for my skin, with no irritation. Plus, they last well! x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
One of my heroes a friend of my grandmother who is almost 80 and with the face of a 30 year old! She told me her secret was to always apply nivea to her face, so I have recently started to do it too!
I’ve heard so many good things about it. I’ve got the NYX finishing spray to try out at the moment, I bought it ages ago but haven’t got round to it. If I don’t like it, I’ll try the MAC one! x
I’m a concealer fiend- the Benefit Bo-ing concealer, the Clarins Instant Concealer and NARS Creamy Concealer are all alternatively my go-tos. As for skincare, rosewater, rosehip oil and tamanu oil-containing products are the staple in my beauty arsenal. All other items can be done away with or replaced.
This was a great summary for someone with only a couple of favourite mac products and will help me investigate more. Great about the value haul! So pleased to find your site through #brillblogposts 🙂 Lou
You know what, I have never really tried NARS, but I see so many positive reviews! I’m going to get some samples! I found a new face cream from REN Skincare – review later today, all natural and doesn’t react on my skin as I have that issue! ?x Kat recently posted…The Ultimate Designer Shoe Dupes| £8 – £41
My beauty hero is something my grandma showed me as a teenager. She swore by witch hazel as an excellent astringent and makeup remover. It’s so gentle when removing eye makeup.
Yes and yes again! Witch hazel was one of my skin saviours as a teenager! I never thought of it as an eye makeup remover? I would have thought it wouldn’t work or might cause tears? x
You know what? I haven’t tried a peel off mask for years! I think I got a couple on a goodie bag last week. Might try one tonight! Any you’d recommend? x
My hero for beauty products is Clarins! The best by far! Make-up? I like Dior, all Frenchie brands… I never use MAC but everyone says it’s great! so I am entering the competition!
#brillblogposts
Hi) This summer I love Clarins instant light lip perfector! Mine is in Pink shimmer. I also use Hada Labo hyaluronic lotion a lot lately, it’s amazing!
You know what, I have never really tried NARS, but I see so many positive reviews! I’m going to get some samples! I found a new face cream from REN Skincare – review later today, all natural and doesn’t react on my skin as I have that issue! ?x
My hero is the Benefit They’re Real mascara. It’s the only mascara that actually makes my eyelashes curl, and I can’t go anywhere without it. A little mascara goes a long way 🙂
My heroes are Clinique- I had a free makeover at House of Fraser a few years ago and they sold me certain products successfully -I found their products to do exactly what they said they would- real quality. I recently bought an amazing product from them it is the Sun-Kissed Face Gelee Complexion Multitasker and when mixed with their foundation is a great healthy pick me up for my skin.
Love Clinique, too! I’m just doing a post of my skincare faves. The products last so long too. I often pick mine up at Duty Free for an extra discount. I love the sound of that face multitasker. Wow, I’m totally checking that out. Thanks! ??xx
Hi Sheila. Another one I’ve never tried! I like the Elemis brand though. I agree with needing something lighter for the warm weather. Great tip, thanks! ?x
Hehe. Low maintenance is key as a mum! Can’t fault it! I don’t do a full face everyday, and I think I was slightly over ambitious with what I thought I’d do in the early stages of being a mum! ??xx #BloggerClubUK
Yes! Fab, isn’t it? I am only just foraying into lipstick, so it was great to get a freebie to try out. Now, I just need to figure out which lip liners suit me! ?x
this month i’ve been using the benefit pore professional (i think?) pore minimizer like CRAYYZY. it’s so great – i love how matte it is but it really does a great job of smoothing out my pores.
i havnt really tried alot of mac products, because they can be very expensive.id love to try mac products and this comp ,may give me the chance.thanks x
I know what you mean- but, what I will say is that it lasts so long, that the products are worth it. But, yes, the initial cost can be a bit tear-inducing, I won’t pretend otherwise! ?x

I’m a big MAC fan too! I used to get a discount in my fashion days so stocked up on eyeshadows. I’m still very loyal to MAC. Their foundations and powders are perfect for my Mauritian skin tone. So in response to the giveaway question for the Strobe cream, I can’t live without my MAC Mineralize Face Powder. I’m a naturally shiny person 😉 so like to look a bit matt and not too float when I leave the house. I also can’t leave the house without my MAC blusher on. Even during maternity I wore blusher everyday. Even if I didn’t plan to leave the house! It just makes me….feel happy. It’s as simple as that. For me it’s all about looking good and feeling good. Great post Kitty! X Sunita Sunita recently posted…Lucky Things review: Updating baby’s bedroom with Bambella Designs UK
That moment when you get a discount and buy the whole shop! ? I haven’t tried the mineralize powder, so when I get through this lot (and the Ben Nye and Sacha!), I’ll check it out. Agree with the blusher. That, and eyeliner and I feel so much less dead! ?? xx
What a sweetheart! ?
My girlfriend always loves and uses lots of Mac mascara…she layers it on to thicken her lashes. She’s the one I’m entering this for.
I Always still cleanse tone and moisturise,I love vichy PRODUCTS

This month it has to be my Sun Tan lotion, bright red is not a good colour on me. A life saver in so many ways, plus I love the smell of it.
?? Well, I think that’s a blooming useful and necessary one! ?x

Bumble and Bumble Full Potential shampoo is a must! It leaves my hair feeling so soft with a shine to it. I then follow with LAB35 leave-in conditioner spray which also adds to the softness and shininess. It also smells really good!
Ooh, they sound good. I don’t tend to use leave-in conditioners as I worry about them being heavy, so I’ll certainly look out for those! x
I haven’t tried any of MAC products because it is too expensive but I hope I will win it so I can finally try it 😀
From other brands, I love catrice and max factor, they are amazing. 🙂

I love MAC cosmetics!!! ❤️
But mostly I use drugstore makeup such as Revlon & Maybelline. Those are my go-to products since it doesn’t break my bank ?
Some great affordable brands and products out there. I like Maybelline! ☺️x

This month the makeup stars for me were Kleem organics face serum, Tarte smooth operator, and Rimmel London nude lipstick, I was so surprised to find the perfect nude in Rimmel London!
Interesting! I’ve never heard of Kleem Organics, but I will certainly look them up now! Thanks! x

Recently I’ve been ruining my skin quite a bit with my face scrub so right now I’m all about The Body Shop’s Aloe line, which I’m really enjoying. Especially the foamy face wash❤
So many great products from Body Shop. I’ve yet to try the aloe range, but I’ll keep that in mind! ?x

My hero is La Mer lip balm. I have super dry lips and this is the only one that helps.
I’ll have to look out for that. I have the same problem. Especially now the weather is starting to transition! ?x

From makeup I use Rimmel extreme black wonder’full mascara and I love m.a.c. lipsticks. For skin care I use Nivea cream.
Ooh, great recommendations, thank you! x

I actually love to use those Korean sheet masks! They work so well and make your skin dewy and hydrated!
Do you recommend any in particular? I’ve seen them a lot recently! x

Maxfactor mascara. The best and most simple make up ever 😀
Really?! Ooh, I must try it. I don’t usually buy Maxfactor! ?x

Hello. My hero is the one and only : Clean and Clear active clear speed cleaning acne gel. I’d been struggling from acnes for months, and I was amazed when I tried this gel for the first time. It makes my acne disappear faster.
Really?! Oh, wow, that’s fab. It’s always great when products just work, isn’t it? xx
My hero product is the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. It just gives me a nice, dewy coverage that lasts me all day long.
I haven’t used the foundations, but I love the powder. Good to know the foundation has staying power. Very important! ?
My hero is clinique i love clinique especially the fact how my skin is super oily and clinique actually takes away the oil as well as moisturizing my skin clinique products doesn’t leave my skin oily at all when i apply my makeup
I am a big Clinique fan, too! Their products really work for my skin, with no irritation. Plus, they last well! x

One of my heroes a friend of my grandmother who is almost 80 and with the face of a 30 year old! She told me her secret was to always apply nivea to her face, so I have recently started to do it too!
Nivea is one of those all time classics, isn’t it! Budget friendly and it WORKS! ☺️x
My hero is the max fix plus prep & prime which I use every single time I leave the house
I’ve heard so many good things about it. I’ve got the NYX finishing spray to try out at the moment, I bought it ages ago but haven’t got round to it. If I don’t like it, I’ll try the MAC one! x
There products are one of the best
They last so well and the colours are great! x
Naked basics
Another Naked basics fan! ☺️x
I love M.A.C. !
Tee hee. Me too! ??x
I’m a concealer fiend- the Benefit Bo-ing concealer, the Clarins Instant Concealer and NARS Creamy Concealer are all alternatively my go-tos. As for skincare, rosewater, rosehip oil and tamanu oil-containing products are the staple in my beauty arsenal. All other items can be done away with or replaced.
Oh wow! Do you buy those from a health goods store? I’ve never heard of taming oil! But, I’m willing to give it a go! ?x
I love their lip glosses.
I haven’t tried the glosses. Might be a good bridge for me as I am a novice with lipstick! ?x
This was a great summary for someone with only a couple of favourite mac products and will help me investigate more. Great about the value haul! So pleased to find your site through #brillblogposts 🙂 Lou
You know what, I have never really tried NARS, but I see so many positive reviews! I’m going to get some samples! I found a new face cream from REN Skincare – review later today, all natural and doesn’t react on my skin as I have that issue! ?x

My hero for beauty products is Dior! Super good products. Nice blog, entered!
Thanks Mary. Can’t go wrong with Dior! ??x
My beauty hero is something my grandma showed me as a teenager. She swore by witch hazel as an excellent astringent and makeup remover. It’s so gentle when removing eye makeup.
Yes and yes again! Witch hazel was one of my skin saviours as a teenager! I never thought of it as an eye makeup remover? I would have thought it wouldn’t work or might cause tears? x
my goto is peel off face masks, they make my face feel so nice
You know what? I haven’t tried a peel off mask for years! I think I got a couple on a goodie bag last week. Might try one tonight! Any you’d recommend? x
I’ve really been back into my Tarina Tarantino Pearl Glow Primer and ELF Brightening Concealer.
I am loving these suggestions! It’s great to find out what actually works for people! I’ve never heard of that primer. Thank you! ?
My hero for beauty products is Clarins! The best by far! Make-up? I like Dior, all Frenchie brands… I never use MAC but everyone says it’s great! so I am entering the competition!
#brillblogposts
Ooh, yes, Clarins and Dior. I love France and (almost all) things French! Not the steak tartare. I’m pescetarian! ? x #brillblogposts
the naked basics 2!
I keep seeing that all over YouTube. I really must check it out! x
Hi) This summer I love Clarins instant light lip perfector! Mine is in Pink shimmer. I also use Hada Labo hyaluronic lotion a lot lately, it’s amazing!
Two more to add to my list of new products to look up! ? Thank you! x
I’ve been using lots of benefit erase paste lately – too many late nights! 🙂

Haha! Well, if you’ve found a way to have your cake and eat it, then I’d say that’s a good thing! ?x
My most used product this month has to be the Soap & Glory dark circles concealer, it’s great at brightening my under eyes!
I haven’t seen this one! But, it sounds like something I need! ?x
I am a big fan of NARS. I absolutely LOVE their eyeshadow primer. I also adore MAC eye shadows 😀
I am currently on the hunt for a new daily face moisturiser though as my last one from Number 7 changed the ingredients and now I am allergic! 🙁
You know what, I have never really tried NARS, but I see so many positive reviews! I’m going to get some samples! I found a new face cream from REN Skincare – review later today, all natural and doesn’t react on my skin as I have that issue! ?x
Mac studio finish powder is my makeup hero! and this summer its all about setting sprays. nyx matte spray has been a life saviour in this heat xxx
Yesss! In glad you mentioned the NYX spray. I bought it but haven’t used it yet. Great that you recommend it! ?x
The Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer, it covers my dark circles and acne scars like no other product in the world.
Thank you for the chance !
Interesting! I’ve never heard of that one. Sounds fab. I’ll check it out! ?x
[…] Discount M.A.C Haul Revisited| Strobe Cream Giveaway View Post […]
My hero is the Benefit They’re Real mascara. It’s the only mascara that actually makes my eyelashes curl, and I can’t go anywhere without it. A little mascara goes a long way 🙂
I got a sample in a Birchbox that I need to try. Sounds fab. I love Benefit products in general! Thanks for the tip! ?x
I don’t wear a lot of makeup but if and when I do it is MAC, it’s such good quality and lasts forever.
You’re so right. It’s nice not to wear too much makeup anyway ☺️. I love travel blogs, so I’ll be checking out yours! ?x
I love the jester eye shadow from MAC!
Ooh, I don’t know that one, but their eyeshadow a are just ?? in general! Will have to check it out x
My heroes are Clinique- I had a free makeover at House of Fraser a few years ago and they sold me certain products successfully -I found their products to do exactly what they said they would- real quality. I recently bought an amazing product from them it is the Sun-Kissed Face Gelee Complexion Multitasker and when mixed with their foundation is a great healthy pick me up for my skin.
Love Clinique, too! I’m just doing a post of my skincare faves. The products last so long too. I often pick mine up at Duty Free for an extra discount. I love the sound of that face multitasker. Wow, I’m totally checking that out. Thanks! ??xx
My skin care hero this month is Elemis Pro collagen Marine Cream, find it so light in warmer weather but really hydrating
Hi Sheila. Another one I’ve never tried! I like the Elemis brand though. I agree with needing something lighter for the warm weather. Great tip, thanks! ?x
My nivea face cream 😀
Nothing wrong with a bit of Nivea! It’s been around so long for good reason! ?x
Putting my low maintenance lifestyle to shame….maybe I should up my game, MAC stuff sounds fab!
#bloggerclubuk
Hehe. Low maintenance is key as a mum! Can’t fault it! I don’t do a full face everyday, and I think I was slightly over ambitious with what I thought I’d do in the early stages of being a mum! ??xx #BloggerClubUK
the blow dryer for sure
Tee hee! That made me laugh. It’s the simple things, right! ?x
My most used beauty product this month is Rimmel lipstick which is Kate Moss collection 🙂
I must get more into lipsticks! I’m such a novice! Hahah x
I love their lipsticks and if you take 6 empty products back they give you a free lippy!
Yes! Fab, isn’t it? I am only just foraying into lipstick, so it was great to get a freebie to try out. Now, I just need to figure out which lip liners suit me! ?x
this month i’ve been using the benefit pore professional (i think?) pore minimizer like CRAYYZY. it’s so great – i love how matte it is but it really does a great job of smoothing out my pores.
OMG, yes! I discovered it through Birchbox (post on the way) and I LOVE it. It definitely does what it says, doesn’t it! x
I like my eye cream, it is Olay.
Hi there! Olay is such a reliable and accessible brand and so affordable, too! x
i havnt really tried alot of mac products, because they can be very expensive.id love to try mac products and this comp ,may give me the chance.thanks x
I know what you mean- but, what I will say is that it lasts so long, that the products are worth it. But, yes, the initial cost can be a bit tear-inducing, I won’t pretend otherwise! ?x

I’m a big MAC fan too! I used to get a discount in my fashion days so stocked up on eyeshadows. I’m still very loyal to MAC. Their foundations and powders are perfect for my Mauritian skin tone. So in response to the giveaway question for the Strobe cream, I can’t live without my MAC Mineralize Face Powder. I’m a naturally shiny person 😉 so like to look a bit matt and not too float when I leave the house. I also can’t leave the house without my MAC blusher on. Even during maternity I wore blusher everyday. Even if I didn’t plan to leave the house! It just makes me….feel happy. It’s as simple as that. For me it’s all about looking good and feeling good. Great post Kitty! X Sunita

That moment when you get a discount and buy the whole shop! ? I haven’t tried the mineralize powder, so when I get through this lot (and the Ben Nye and Sacha!), I’ll check it out. Agree with the blusher. That, and eyeliner and I feel so much less dead! ?? xx
