Benefit's Some Kind-a Gorgeous Review






















































Hey guys, today I am reviewing Benefit's Some Kind-a Gorgeous Foundation Faker. The is a pretty expensive product and retails at about €30-€35. You basically apply it like a foundation with a brush or the sponge provided. It has a lovely silky sort of feeling when it is being applied but with my skin type I feel that it sort of highlights the dry areas and looks a bit flaky. A friend of mine who has more of an oily skin type tried it and loved it but I'm not crazy about it on my skin. I feel it doesn't last very long, only a few hours and because it is a foundation faker, the coverage isn't great, it's just something to throw on in the mornings to even out your skin tone.

I really love the packaging, and think it is so cute! Benefit always has really great packaging and I love the idea of making it look like a vinyl record. It's pretty handy that it has quite a big mirror for a compact and I sometimes use it when applying my makeup on the go. One thing that is a bit misleading about it is that there is very little product in it although it gives the impression that it would fill the whole area of the packaging. As you can see in the picture, it hits the pan quite early and doesn't hold half as much product as it appears to. The bottom of the packaging contains a compartment that holds the foundation sponge.

As I said already, I'm not crazy about this product and I mostly used it because I was trying to get my money's worth as it's fairly expensive after all. I definitely wouldn't repurchase it because it is just way too expensive for what you get. I also think that if you are going to pay €30 or more for a product that you might as well get a full foundation with better coverage than a foundation faker to doesn't do everything a foundation does. What do you think? Have you ever tried out the product? Did you like it, and if so what skin type do you have? Let me know in the comments below and i'll talk to you soon.

Zara Woman Cherry Perfume Review

Hey guys! How are you all? Today, I've decided to do a quick review of the Zara Women Cherry perfume that that I got for free as a half used tester a while ago. I thought that I might as well tell you about it because Zara perfumes are pretty cheap and usually only range from €10-€25. I'm not in love with this scent but I do like it I will wear it until it's gone, probably on and off as I wear my other perfumes as well. 

This perfume is quite light and sweet smelling. The top notes are cherry and plum, the middle notes are pear and mandarin orange, and the base notes are vanilla and sandalwood. I'm not crazy about fruity scents but I think the vanilla and sandalwood saved it for me,  because I love vanilla scents, even though their is only a hint of it in this perfume. A lot of the other Zara perfumes that I've tried last quite long, but because this one is so light and fresh, I feel it fades away quite quickly. Overall, this wouldn't be my favourite Zara perfume and it doesn't last all day but it's quite nice as something light to spritz on throughout the day to keep you smelling sweet. 

I hope you liked this post. Have you ever tried any of the Zara perfumes before? If so, which one? What did you think of it? Leave a comment below.

Change

Hey guys, today is a bit of a harsh inspirational quote. It's about that thing you keep putting off or are just completely ignoring. I'm sure you know what it is whether it is a big thing or just something small but as the quote says, you can't change something that you refuse to confront. If there is a problem, you first need to acknowledge that it exists before anything else, and then you need to work on changing it. Start small. Just take the first step and don't worry about the second step until you have finished the first one.
