Thierry Mugler refill offer!!!

Hi guys,

How has your week been going? I feel that I am now an occasional blogger due to how little time I have to put up posts. However I could not put off posting about this great offer that started on Monday. 

If you are all a lover of perfumes like me, this will be an offer not to miss. From the 15th September to the 28th Septemer 2014 Debenhams are offering customers a chance to purchase either a 30ml Alien  bottle of perfume or a 25ml bottle of Angel for the refill price and they will provide the bottle for free.

I love Thierry Mugler Alien, but did not want to spend a big amount on a bottle which starts for about £50.00 for a 30ml bottle. So I was happy to see this offer in my local store.

I bought the Alien fragrance for £31.00 with this deal that's a saving of £19.00!!!

If you have always loved this perfume but never got the chance to buy it because of the price, I would suggest you go to your local participating debenhams store and take up the offer while stocks last. 

What are your favourite perfumes?
Do you use perfumes at certain times of the year or do you have an all year perfume?

Have a good day

New facial oil obsession

Hi Guys

I wanted to let you all know of a product that i have added as part of my night time facial care regime. From working with skincare specialists, I came to realise how important it is to cleanse and moisturize your skin at night making sure you allow 'TLC' time for your skin.

When looking into new products to use, I saw that many people have said that facial oil is always good in providing moisture to the skin. On my search I noticed that many people on websites, YouTube videos and blogs have said that The Body Shop Vitamin E Overnight Serum-In-Oil is great to use as part of your skincare regime so I thought I would give it a try.





They were not wrong! I love the way the serum feels on your skin. It does look like you have a really oily face when you first put it on, but it soaks really well into the skin. I love being able to wake up in the morning with soft skin from this serum, it is much better to have your skin feeling this way than having rough dry skin!


If anyone else suffers with dry skin like me and wants to try and use new products or maybe someone who wants to change up their skincare regime, I would say that this product is for you.

What products are in your skincare regime? Do you use any facial oils? Leave your comments below :)

Glitter me up!!!!



Hi everyone,

Thought I'd create a new blogpost on a look I'm really loving at the moment! I know everyone has been following the trend of having a glittery accent nail with another nail colour. 

I thought today that I might change it up and do an accent nail with a normal nail colour. 

I used Models Own "Velvet Goth Absinthe" and Barry M's Mint Green for the accent nail. 


I was really happy with the results and will definitely be doing this style again. 



What do you guys think? Will you be trying this style out? Or what style do you like to do with your accent nail? Let me know in the comments below. 

Enjoy the rest of your week

My Top 3 Skincare Products!



 Hi guys!
It's been such a long time since I've posted on my blog due to the piles of work I've had to do, but Spot The Beauty is back again! :)

This post is about my personal favourite products that I have been using quite a lot!

First of all is the Palmer's Cocoa Butter. When I first bought it, I had heard so many positive reviews about it, and I'd thought I'd give it a try because at the time, I had quite dry skin. After about a month of use, I really noticed a difference on my skin! It literally does what it says! My skin felt so moisturised and also the appearance of my stretch marks had faded. I would say that if you want to use this for stretch marks, you would need to use it regularly because you won't see results within a week!

My second favourite is Johnson's Daily Essentials Cleansing Lotion from their face care range. It makes my skin feel smoother and refreshed and it wasn't as drying to my skin as I thought it would be! I use this when I want to get any make up remnants off my face and before I go to bed.

Lastly, my third favourite is the Vaseline Lip Therapy with cocoa butter. When I first used this I was just in love with the smell! It makes my lips feel so soft,and keeps them moisturised for long, which is needed especially in the cold weather!

I'd love to know what your top 3 skincare products are! Comment your 3 ( or more!) down below :)
 Hope you all have a great weekend,

Models own buy

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone has been enjoying the sun. Just wanted to do a quick blog post on one of my new buys. I wanted to try a different make of nail polish that I haven't used before. I had heard that Models Own was a good brand to use, and came out really well so I thought I would give that a try. I went to my nearest Models Own bottle store which was in Stratford Westfield because I knew they would have a bigger range.

I loved the Models Own bottleshop they are really funky and enjoyable to shop in. I was not disappointed in the range they had! If my sister did not stop me, I would have left with half of the place! 
     (Image from google images)

These are the colours I went for 

I was happy with the offer they they were doing in the bottleshop too! If you bought 6 nail polishes you only had to pay £20 and considering that each bottle is worth £5, I am happy with the saving of £10. 

What do you think? Are you a Models Own fan? Let me know your thoughts below.

Barry m confetti nails

Hey guys!

I thought I would make a post about the new Barry m confetti nail polish that I tried out a few weeks ago. I was so excited for the launch of this range because I am such a big fan of all their effects. I am glad to say that the confetti nail polish did not disappoint. 

I used my black and white Barry m confetti nail polish with purple beauty uk.

Here are the results....

Roger & Gallet Collection



Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long since I've posted, I've been quite busy with everything.. but I'm back! :)

Today, I want to tell you about a project I was invited to by a company called Roger & Gallet. They wanted me to check out the new layout of their site that they latched, & give my thoughts and ideas about the website. As a reward for doing this, Roger & Gallet sent me some samples and a product of my choice. On the website, I liked the sound of the Bois D'Orange Eau Fraîche parfumée.

Eau Fraiche

I really like the scent of the perfume! It's very light and refreshing! It's not too overpowering, and I think it's a nice scent for the summer! I like the 30ml bottle, because it's travel size, so it's perfect to fit in your bag, and you can just spritz now and again! I like the spiciness of the perfume.

You can see more of Roger & Gallet's products at Roger-Gallet.com , they have a wide variety of fragrances, lotions, soaps & more!

Hope you're all enjoying the heat ( while it lasts!)

If you want me to blog about anything, just comment down below, or tell me your favourite product from Roger & Gallet! :)

White nails with gold dots

Hi everyone,

Just making a post at my other attempt of trying nail art. After my last horrid attempt I thought I might go for the more simple look of gold dots on the nails. For this I used an unbranded white nail polish and one of my favourites Barry M gold glitter. 

The results were better and I got compliments for the nail art so I am quite happy with this attempt.  Here are the results. 


What do you think? Can anyone give me some advice on nail art?

Enjoy the day

The paint colours I used were Barry m gold foil and n07 me me me. 

As I thought the results did not turn out aswell as I wanted, but as they say practice makes perfect. Check out the results...

Veet EasyWax kit

Hey everyone,

As the sun was out today I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to write a blog post about a product I have received.

As I have said before in my about me section I am a Bzz agent. This means that now and again I receive products for free and am asked to review them. Recently I received Veet's new EasyWax kit. I had seen the product on TV and was interested in how well the results would turn out from the product.


I have never waxed before so was wondering how painful the process would be. I can gladly say that it did not hurt as much as I thought. I was pleased with the results but I thought the kit would be a little better. On the kit it suggests a heating time of 20 mins but you need about 30 to 40 mins to get the best results. It did leave my legs feeling soft and smooth but I would not spend £29.99 on the product (full price in Boots and Superdrug). If the product was half the price then it would be a product I would consider buying. Check out the results of the kit.


If you are interested in this product I as a Bzz agent can offer my blog readers a 50% discount code on Amazon. Just enter EASYWAX4 by the 30th June 2013 into the promotional codes and gift card box (T&C's apply)


Enjoy

Beauty UK green nail polish and Barry M gold glitter

Hey everyone,

Just making a blog post on my new nail art that I have tried out this week. Recently on twitter I won a competition from Beauty UK on a range of there summer nail polishes. I thought this week I might try out one of the colours. I decided to go with the green because I thought it was not as bright as the others and suited the weather. I wanted to try a bit of nail art on my nails as well. The two colours I used were Beauty UK's green and Barry M glitter gold. 

First of all I did a coat of the Beauty UK's green nail polish it came out quite thick on the nails so another coat wasn't needed. I then used one of my dotting tools with Barry M gold glitter to add gold dots on the nails. Here were the results...



The dots did not stand out as much as I expected but I still love the glitter. 

What do you think about glitter nails? Are you in love with them as much as i am?

Maybelline color show polka dots

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I tried one of my new nail polishes that I had bought a couple of weeks ago. This was Maybelline color show polka dots. 


On mind when buying the products, I was having doubts on how thick the polish would be or if the polka dots would cover all of the nails or if it would only come out with tiny specks. I was happy to see that on the first coat of polish that the texture was a little thick and came out beautifully on the nail and the polka dots covered most of the nail. Here are a few pictures of the nails after two coats of the nail polish...





I love the new Maybelline color show collection and keep adding it to my collection every week and at £2.99 per nail polish where can you go wrong.

Johnson & Johnson Exfoliating Wash

Hey everyone, hope everyone enjoyed their day. Just wanted to make a blog post on a product that I am loving at the moment.

My facial skin type is dry so I am always on the look out for different facial scrubs that I feel work well with my skin. I am also quite sensitive to certain products so it makes it harder for me to find a scrub that works well, but not anymore. I went into Superdrug a couple of weeks ago to look for Johnson's face care range which had received good reviews on certain sites. I wanted to see for myself if it could live up to the expectation. I ended up buying Johnson & Johnson Exfoliating Wash 150ml which was £3.09.


I am glad to say that after a week (only used twice in the week) of trying the product I can definitely say it did. Straight after using the scrub it left my skin feeling soft and fresh. Normally with facial scrubs the next day I wake up with dry patches on my skin even after using night cream, but this did not happen with Johnson's so I was very pleased with this purchase. I would suggest this product to anyone who suffers with dry skin or just wants a good facial scrubs as it can be used for all skin types.

Glitter Nails

Hi everyone, hope everyone is enjoying the rest of their weekend. Just thought I would make a quick blog post on the nail polishes that I tried out this weekend.

I recently went on a trip to Primark and came across their nail polish range. I was sceptical at first on whether they would be of good quality but I thought I would give it a try. In the set that I chose, there were three different shades of blue plus a blue based glitter nail polish all for £2.

On my nails I thought I would use the darker shade of blue to complement the blue glitter nail polish.

I was quite surprised about the thickness of the nail polish, I thought that I may need two or three coats to get the colour I wanted but one was enough. For the glitter nail I did use the blue colour as a base coat then added the glitter on top (two coats were used). Here are the results...


I would recommend the nail polish to anyone, I certainly will be going to buy another pack and getting a four pack of nail polishes for £2 where can you go wrong.

Enjoy the rest of your evening

Rock Hard Nail Effects

Hi everyone,

This is now my second blog-post on my site but the first that is actually going to focus on a beauty product. So let me tell you about what I found in boots today. I wanted to try something new with my nails and at the moment the weather is not putting me in the mood to use some of my summer colours. I had heard good reviews about matte nail polish so I wanted to see if I could find any in-store. Then I came across this...
Boots brand Seventeen rock hard nail effects. There were a few colours to choose from including black, grey and blue. I wanted to add a bit of colour on the nails so I decided to go for blue.

As I was in a bit of a rush I did not take time to read the bottle properly and in my own head though it was just plain blue matte nail polish, but no I had stumbled across something better. On the first coat I started to notice a bumpy texture developing on the nails a few seconds after putting it on. It was then when I read the back of the bottle that I discovered that it was matte textured nail polish. I love the effect that it created on my nails. To get the full effect of the matte textured nail polish I would suggest doing two layers. Here was my finished result...
I think this was a great buy and I might try some of the other colours in-store to. I know Barry M also have textured nail polish in pastille colours so I may also give that a go for summer.


Enjoy your day,
