Miners Tin o'Tint - Review

Miners have recently released 3 brand new Tin o'Tints. These tints are basically a lip balm, but with a hint of colour and a glorious scent!! 

The 3 newest tints are Pink Grapefruit, Mango, and Cocoa Bean. The colours are gorgeous but the one that really caught my eye was the Mango, the colour is a coral pink and really vibrant and vivid, definitely up my street!

Although the tints can look bright in the tin they're not overwhelming when on... they give a cute glow so perfect for everyday wear, or on top of lipsticks more of a punch of colour! I've been wearing the Pink Grapefruit & Mango when I have more of a simple eye look (just liquid eyeliner/mascara) and then the Cocoa Bean when wearing more of a grungy, smudged eye look.

These feel amazing on, really smooth to apply and stay on for a good couple of hours. The packaging too is really handy for chucking in your bag. 

Check out Miners website for more details... these products are also stocked in Boots and House of Fraser.

Callus Peel for Hard Skin - Review

No matter how much glamming I do I always manage to forget about my footsies... and to be honest I would say they get the most abuse!  

After a whole summer of wearing flip flops (even through the rain!) and then also wearing the most ridiculous heels every weekend my feet are definitely showing some damage :(  I recently went to the Beauty Trade Show and spotted the Callus Peel Foot Treatment stand which looked really interesting...

The Treatment:

For the treatment the easiest position is to lie on your front. You then have your heels (and any other hard skin you want removed) wrapped in a Skin Softener sheet which contains natural acids to erode the skin. Your feet are then wrapped in cling film and left for 15 minutes.

Once the cling film and sheets are removed the therapist will then use the scraping tool to remove all hard skin - this tickles and also can hurt a little bit, but is tolerable for the results!

The therapist then moves on to using the foot file to smooth out the foot and remove any final layers of hard skin. To finish the treatment you then receive a lovely foot massage using the Moisture Cream which really helps the moisturiser to soak in. Your feet will then be amazingly soft and pretty <3 

Overall:

This treatment is retailed at approx. £20 which I think is worth it. I would advise one at the start or summer, and then again at the end. Or if you wanted it for a special occasion before a holiday would be perfect!

Have you tried any successful treatments for hard skin?!

Shake it till you Samba - Gelish Manicure

ZING ZING!!!! How bright is this colour?!

I've been eyeing it up for a while & finally gone for it.... it's from the beauty brand Gelish and it's from they're RIO NEON collection. The collection is such an eye catcher, very bright, very colourful AND they last for 3 weeks... basically perfect!!!

The formula is a UV Polish, which is set under a LED or UV lamp. The treatment starts with the basic nail prep and then the application, the brilliant thing about this treatment is that it is dry istantly meaning you can step out of the salon without having to worry about smudging or knocking your beautiful nails...  the manicure will then last up to 3 weeks!

The colour range offered by Gelish are amazing, check out their website for your nearest salon: http://www.nailharmonyuk.co.uk/salon-locator.html

Miners Lip Colour - Lipstick Review

I was recently sent some lipsticks from Miners Cosmetics ... If you've ever watched my YouTube channel you will know how much I rave about these!!!

I will be separating my reviews up into the different types of lipsticks so you can get a full idea of each different product.

Today I'm going to be focusing on the 'Lip Colour' range - these lipsticks promise a full punch of colour, and come in 12 different shades and are a bargain at £3.99 each.

Glamour Girl - Vogue - Icon

I was sent 3 different shades: Glamour Girl (pink), Vogue (red), and Icon (plum). These lipsticks have a really moisturising feel to them which is the main reason I love them - my lips get so dry in an office with air-con. When applied they go on very smoothly and are well pigmented, the colour is evenly distributed and looks brilliant when on. I also find the colours very warming which is really complimenting. 

If I have to name one negative with the product I would say the packaging, the plastic is quite thin on the lid so I worry it may crack, also I have found the writing can rub off the side... on the other hand though where the packaging is pink it really stands out from all my other lipsticks in my collection - also the base of the lipstick has been changed so its a block of the colour which is helpful.

Overall I would give the Miners lipsticks 4.5/5 - the colours are all really cute and wearable, they feel incredible on and also have a delicious smell of parma violets!!!
