Beauty Review | Tarte Cosmetics

                                                                              Aloha Sprinklerinos,

If there is one brand that has had heaps of hype this year it’s Tarte Cosmetics and I’m not going to lie when I say I was firmly perched on that bandwagon. I’ve been itching to get my hands on some of their products and now they’ve launched a select amount in the UK it seemed the perfect time to share them with you lovely lot. 

Tarte were lovely enough to send me a nice little parcel, but the products I’m most excited to try (and that are available for us here in the UK, too) are…
Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush
It’s been one of their most talked about products and from simply opening the packaging I can see why. With highly pigmented shades, packaging to match the colour that’s inside (good thinking, guys!) and a beautifully sized compact mirror they’ve already got me sold. 

Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara
With a cheeky hint from the title, this mascara promises to provide four lash benefits – curling, lengthening, volumising and conditioning. It’s safe to say that it’s going to be the one to reach for on an evening out, when you want to achieve a dramatic, dark eye. It’s also Dermatologist proven to increase volume in the lashes, which is a bit swishy if you ask me.  Amazonian Clay Volumizing Brow & Hair Powder
Available in a variety of shades, halleluiah! Not only is this little beauty packing a punch with some gorgeous packaging it, like the mascara, gives volumised, fuller brows – perfect for those Cara Delevingne inspired looks. 

Lastly, the Amazonian Butter Lipstick
Containing ingredients such as vitamin A and emollient butters (like cocoa butter) they’re super hydrating, ultra moisturising lipsticks with bold, pigmented application. They have a trio pack available on QVC at the moment that includes Coral Blossom - a golden coral shade, Tulip - a soft rose shade and Creamy Rose.  I'm really excited to give this brand a whirl! What do you think?
Do you have any Tarte items on your Christmas wishlist?

HJ Manicure

Before I went on holiday I was sent some gorgeous samples of the '5 Free' natural nail polish brand HJ Manicure.
I'd never heard of the brand before but I love discovering new brands
and after checking out the website I was very eager to give them a try!

I chose two colours, Tropical Sunset* (from the Holiday Collection) and Thunder Storm* (from the HJ Signature collection). Today I want to focus on the heavenly shade Thunder Storm!

Thunder Storm is a sultry, dusky grey toned lilac and I fell in love
with the colour straight from the website. If I could only choose one
colour, it would be this. It is soo soft and gentle looking, dusky
without looking bland and dull. Just beautiful!

I have to be honest when I first applied the polish I thought the
formula was very runny and worried that combined with my terrible nail
painting skills it would be thin and streaky. But no, you soon realise
that the formula is thin but this actually means that is seems to settle
perfectly on the nail with literally no streaking at all! I think the
long narrow brush really helps with precision too. The fluidity of the
polish certainly doesn't compromise the cover either, one coat is
perfectly opaque and as I said no streaks and completely patch free.
Being so fluid makes it mega easy to apply and fast too.

Talking of fast, this polish dries really well and speedily without
getting sticky and tacky which for a cultz like me is a bonus (no more
finger prints on my nails!) Like I said you can happily get by with one
coat but two coats really gives it that extra summin' summon'. The
finish is smooth and has a beautiful gloss and shine to it that really
helps enhance the colour!

As for durability, well i tested these polishes on holiday and at home
and with a top coat they stood the test of Sun, Sand, Sea, Swimming
(chlorine and salt), Showers and the nibblings of a teething 8 month
old. They lasted through multiple hair washes and washing up and wear
and tare started shooing on the tips at about day 3 and proper chipping
after about day 5! I think that's pretty good going for a natural nail
polish brand.

Of course these nail polishes are toxic free. Free from all the top nail
polish nasties including Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, Toulene, DBP
(Di-butyl phthalate) and Camphor. They are also free from Animal
Derivatives and so are Vegan and also cruelty free!

Polishes are £9.50 (15ml) and available online at HJ Manicure

Lovelula July Beauty Box

It's nearing the end of the month and
I suddenly realise I haven't blogged about this box yet. Tell me
something new! I completely forgot to blog about June's box, but then
again it didn't really grab me as a must share box so hey, there you go.

This July box though is nice nice nice!

Firstly John Masters as a brand is always extremely welcome in a box and
secondly blessedly isn't the blood orange body wash/body lotion duo
that i now seem to have a dozen of from different sources! This mini set
is Lavender and Rosemary Shampoo and Citrus and Neroli Detangler.
Now I'm not such a fan of lavender, but barely detect it from a sniff
test, so this should be great to give a go. The detangler  is something
I'm interested in trying as i haven't been conditioning my hair at all
for the past few months and I'm considering starting it up again. My
hair is just so temperamental, you never know!

Next is the Nourish Golden Glow Illuminating Face Shimmer. I've
got this as a sample before and talked about it then so wont go much
into it, but I have the body version and love it, so have high hopes for
this one!

Then we have Mychelle Fabulous Eye Cream, which sounds really
interesting, I went through a phase of being obsessed with using eye
creams, and now I've hit the quarter of a century milestone in my life
(how the eeffff did that happen?!) I think it's about time I started
giving eye creams the attention they deserve again!

And lastly, but by no means least the cowshed selection! Usually I have
to admit I don't like getting sachets all that much, i feel like often
there's not enough to really try the product. But when you get a whole
fan selection of beautiful Cowshed sachets, well you can't really
complain!

Included are bath and shower gels (in no particular order): Grumpy Cow (Uplifting), Gorgeous Cow (blissful) and Knackered Cow (Relaxing)

And Body lotions included: Moody Cow (Balancing), Wild Cow (Invigorating), Lazy Cow (Soothing) and Horny Cow (Seductive) - oh I say!

BareMinerals Beauty Surprise Collection!

A few weeks ago I was just casually minding my own business when an
email popped into my inbox that made me squee with excitement and
literally drop everything and whip out my credit card. Aaah i'm so
easily enticed. Anyway this email was from bareMinerals, my holy grail
of healthy clean make up and they were announcing an exciting surprise
purchase. 

Basically you pay £30 i think it was and will be sent a secret and
surprise selection of 7 goodies from their entire collection! Aaah the
possibilities were endless! What would i get?! The total worth was
something like £75 so I literally could not physically stop myself from
getting this.

Oh I am glad i did. I'll be honest, it was a total risk. I'm not by any
means an adventurous make up wearer. Colours are not thing and i just
don't have the skill or look to pull them off and their are plenty of
colours in the collection that i would be too shy to try. So as I say it
was a risk.

But if is all about risks eh?! So without further a do this is what my 7 surprise goodies were. 

[?] Mineral Eye Shadow - Citrus Twist [?]

A warm shimmery pinky honey coral colour. This is to die for! so
beautiful, i reckon it would also look nice as a blush! This i can see
becoming my staple go-to eye colour.

[!] Mineral Eye Shadow - Twilight [!]

This is a rich deep shimmery dark grey-blackish tone with a hint of
midnight navy. It's not solid black so will be ideal for a smokey eye
and a dramatic night time look.

[?] Mineral Eye Shadow - Black Emerald [?]

Oh my, oh my. This colour is like emerald dust! Green is may fave
colour and this shade, a blend of black and emerald is probably the only
bold colour i will willingly try. I could shimmer this all day in the
light, it just looks so beautiful. This will make me push my boundaries a
little and not be so scared!

[!] Natural Lipgloss - 7 Layer Cake [!]

Hmm, well to be honest i'm not a massive lipgloss girl, despite this
it is a pretty pretty pink that I reckon I might just give a try. You
never know. This has to be my least liked product of all the surprises.

[?] Flawless Definition Mascara [?]

What a win. I've never tried their Mascara before and we are all on
the hunt for the perfect natural mascara. Lets see how this one does!

[!] Round The Clock Waterproof Eyeliner - Black (8pm) [!]

Groovey, can't beat an eyeliner and waterproof to boot, perfect for this winter with all our british rain.

[?] All Over Face Colour - Glee Radiance [?]

YYeaah! Fabulous, I'm a huge fan of bareMinerals face products,
whether its foundation, setting powder, veil, blush, warmth etc, i love
them all. I've already used this and i think it is bloody marvey! Subtle
colour with a hint of shimmer for a natural glow without any heavy
glitter - perfick!

I'd say I got a pretty fantastic bunch of surprise products this time,
i'd definitely buy one again. Would you give one of these surprise
bundles from bareMinerals a go?

Origins GinZing Mascara

Origins GinZing Mascara £17

I purchased this Origins GinZing mascara after reading some great
reviews about it. I love Origins as a brand and think that their
products are amazing, but i was hesitant to splash out on the makeup.

This GinZing mascara is formulated without parabens, phthalates, mineral
oils, petroleum, paraffin or a number of other noted scary 'chemicals'.
It has no synthetic fragrances or animal ingredients. Mascaras with
great formulas like this are hard to come by and often very pricey and
while this Origins mascara is up there with the most expensive mascaras
i've ever bought, i can fully say it's 100% worth it.

For once i'm finding a product is actually living up to it's hype. Thank goodness for that! 

I have naturally quite long, full and thick lashes, they are also fairly
curly. Not to blow my own trumpet but i think they are one of my best
features and i often get a lot of comments on them (some people even
think i have extensions - don't). So for me i like to show them off to
their best, and mascaras are so key in doing so and therefore are quite
important to me.

I usually wear a thick bold wing on my eyes which makes my eyes look
bigger but can detract from my lashes, but as they are so long i usually
am able to get the balance to get the big eyed long lash effect i like.
For this review i though it would be much better for you to see a clear
true result of the mascara without the effect of the wings (in honestly
not wear my wings makes me feel weird and pretty naked, the things i do
for blogging!) i also kept my eye shadow totally neutral for the same
reason. So excuse the crazy eyebrows because i'm lacking the rest of my
makeup to balance them out! 

This mascara is fabulous not only for it's healthy clean formula but
also because it makes (in my humble opinion) my lashes look mega! Super
long, extra black, bold and lovely and thick! It seriously gives my long
lashes massive VaVaVOOM! 

The formula doesn't clump or look gloopy and is incredibly buildable.
One coat gives a bold but natural effect and two coats - which i'm
wearing in the photos- make them look really Pow, without being
spiderleggy or clumpy. Three coats (oh yes i love my 3 coats!) creates a
fluttering dollylash look, perfect for a bold eye and a great night out
look. I would say the colour is a good true black that doesn't fade or
look ashy grey.

As for the curl, as i said my lashes naturally curl right up on their
own and pretty much touch my eyelid (this sounds great, but its a
serious con when trying to wear sunglasses or use microscopes -science
class was always a nightmare) and most mascaras have little or no effect
on boosting curl, or the really bold ones can sometimes weigh them down
a bit. Origins GinZing doesn't weigh my curls down at all and helps
enhance the look of the curl very nicely and give them a bit of a lift,
just like they claim! I don't and haven't used eyelash curlers here (or
ever! - they freak me out!) Application is easy and smooth and as i said
before isn't at all clumpy or gloomy.

The brush is pretty big but after first thinking it was a bit scary I
found it actually very easy to work with and it coated my lashes evenly
with little tugging and i was able to apply the mascara from root to tip
as well as still being able to reach the little lashes in the tricky
corner of my eye and even my bottom lashes. I was worried with my bottom
lashes it would be too big and leave a mess under my eye but it didn't
even with my bad application skills. The formula also lasts all day on
both my top and bottom lashes and as I discovered the other day is quite
resistant to smudging and accidental eye rubbing! And so far it holds
up in the rain pretty good too!

They only product on my lashes is two coats of Origins GinZing Mascara. No extensions, fillers,  falseies or curlers have been used. 

Also worth a note too- here i am also wearing the Origins Quick Hide
Concealer, which is also great but i shall save that for another post!

Have you tried any Origins Make up - what do you think of it?

Naturtint Hair Dye

Nature's Dream - Naturtint Permanent Hair Colorant - £9.99*

I have been dying my locks for a good few years now and i'd never really
thought about the repercussions that it has on my hair. I have oodles
of long thick hair that can pretty much take a beating without really
suffering too much. Then when i started to cut out chemicals like SLS
and parabens i realised i should probably do the same when dying my
hair. As it turned out my favourite colour got discontinued and i
thought i may as well just take a break from dying it. Six odd months
later and my roots were down by my ears and people were starting to get
fed up of me moaning about them!

In an epic turn of perfect timing I was contacted to try out a lovely natural hair dye brand called Naturtint from Natures Dream that promised to give amazing full coverage with a natural clean formula. You can imagine i jumped at the chance!

I chose the permanent hair colour range and using their extensive colour guide took my pick from an amazingly wide and beautiful range of colours and tones
and settled on the beautiful Light Golden Chestnut (5G). What is even
better is you can actually mix the colours together to create your
perfect shade, a guide for this is also provided!

The formula is free from an amazing list of chemical nasties. No:
Ammonia, Resorcinol, Parabens, Silicones, Paraffin, Mineral Oil, Heavy
Metals, SLS, Formaldehyde derivatives or artificial fragrances. WOW!
Plus it is enriched with Sunflower extract and other amazing natural
nutrients and oils (all organically certified too!)

I enlisted the help of my ma and off we went to eradicate those bad boy
roots. There are several methods for different types of dye jobs, but
mine was a simple dye all-in-one-go job. So, just like other brands you
simply mix two solutions, give it a few a hefty shakes and away you go!

Firstly to mention is the scent, while it isn't the most prettiest of
smells it is by no means unpleasant and I actually quite liked it as it
smelt 'earthy' and 'raw'- an odd way to describe it but you know.
Blissfully due to the ammonia free formula there was zero acidic tart
eye watering smell that you get from typical brands of hair dye and it
seriously made the whole experience immensely better, not once did i
think -gee i need to crack a window! 

Next point to mention about this is the wonderful SLS free formula. SLS
is a foaming agent and often dries out the skin and can often cause
irritation. With Naturtint i noticed pretty quickly that my scalp wasn't
and didn't sting or itch during the whole process which again was such a
blessing and a bonus. Seeing as my ma was the one pasting the solution
onto my locks (and having been dying her hair for a good 30 odd years, a
bit of an expert) I asked her how it differed from using a traditional
dye kit. She said she was impressed because as it didn't foam up it was a
whole lot less messy and splashy than other brands and therefore much
easier for her to control. This meant that A) my nice white bathroom
stayed white and B) my ears and neck remained mostly unsmeared, while my
hair got the full amount of coverage. Also when it came to cleaning
what bit of me had caught a bit of dye, it washed off my skin really
easily and didn't require an of the usual vigorous scrubbing with a
rough wet flannel or makeup remover!

So once we had slapped two boxes worth (i have A LOT of  hair, but two
was plenty) of dye on I left it to process for 30 mins then washed out
with the lovely shampoo provided and then conditioned with the amazing
colour fix conditioner! This conditioner is heavenly, my hair was smooth
smooth smooth! It smelt wonderful and there was enough in one tube for
several washes even with my heap of hair.

So the final result? Well I am 100% loving it, my hair has full deep
gorgeous glossy coverage, no patches, no dryness and no lingering smell.
The colour is rich and intense and absolutely beautiful. I have had so
many compliments on my new colour and even after a few washes it remains
rich and glossy and soft. I has lightened ever so slightly after 3 or
so washes but nothing drastic and in actual fact the washes helped bring
out even more shades and tones to the hair colour. It's amazingly
natural and multi-tonal. 

I literally cannot fault this hair dye in any way. I will definitely be
purchasing this for myself when i need to re-dye it, it is a bit pricey
at £9.99 a box, but for healthy hair that has such incredible natural
colour it's seriously worth it! I actually enjoyed dying my hair, which
is really something! 

All photos taken two weeks after dyeing and after 3-4 washes

The only slight issue i would mention is that the colour that is shown
on the box is pretty different to the colour chart on the website and
very different from your actual result colour. I chose my colour online
and my hair has turned out just how i expected and looks like the colour
shown online but my box looked really different and at first i was a
bit worried, but it turned out perfect. So just a note, judge by the
online colour chart, not the box. 

The mothers final verdict? 'I think it's superb!' High praise indeed from the queen of hair dying!

Naturtint range also includes Nutrideep Multiplier (conditioner), Nutrideep Shampoo and Reflex non-permanent colour.

Halal Beauty Products: Ultimate List!

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

NOTE: Please keep this handy blog post saved in your favourites or linked in your blog sidebar as it will be updated with new product review's inshallah.

 

 

I really feel that this post is long overdue. We all have our favourite brands of make up and skin care and such but do we ever check to see what is inside of them?

Many could ask; "Do we really have to go this far? We already have to check food labels so why do we have to check beauty product labels as well?"

To cut a long story short - we are not allowed to eat pork in Islam, this is a ruling of Allah SWT. Therefore why should be be rubbing these lotions full of pig by-product into our skin which we purify before salah? Personally, it doesn't make sense. I feel that we go about using these products blinded and because we have so many resources now we shouldn't need to be supporting these deceitful companies anymore and can now support the ones who use pure ingredients inshallah.
Please do not get confused and mistake this blog post as something which you could find from the "haram police". This is just my and many other Muslims views. Allah made us the only mammal who can think, listen, read, write and talk. It's about time we used our noggin and stopped being so lazy with the excuse of "it doesn't say that in The Quran".

Al-Quran is the best guide to all mankind however Allah SWT gave us a brain to use logic and to think outside the box with reason. You may wish to avoid some or all by-product ingredients, we all have different ethical values.

Another point to remember is that Allah does not allow animal cruelty. Therefore an animals welfare is far more superior than the workings of the latest mascara.

You may also like to watch this video about animal welfare in Islam which is inspired by our Prophet Muhammad (SAW) - don't worry there are no shocking pictures in it.

If you are curious to know why I used the above excuse as an example then please read on, if not just jump to the next paragraph inshallah :) I use "it doesn't say that in The Quran" as this is the response I got when I politely explained to a sister that M&Ms were not halal to eat due to their colouring (they contain E120 Cochineal which is a beetle, that is crushed to get the red dye from it making the red and oorange M&Ms - it's also in some red food colouring and marshmellows fyi). However I think she forgot to undertsand that Allah SWT only made the pure animals and meat allowed for us to eat. Is it just me or does anyone else see where I am coming from in this point? Just because it doesn't say it in black and white that M&Ms are not halal to eat doesn't mean that it isn't true. This is why I support people thinking outside of the box within reason, because Allah gave each of us a mind to think subhanallah.

Alot of this research has come together from me taking time out and digging with my own two hands! It is great how easy it is to get the information too. Many websites will be happy to reply to your questions through email, some already have those questions answered on their FAQ page, many have the full ingredient list available on their website under individual products. I recently had someone ask how to get ahold of this information as they were doing research, I hope that helped you a little.

Check your own bathroom cupboard, make-up bag or dresser and read the labels.

You maybe thinking "I've read the labels but most of it is gibberish!"
This is very true, many companies are not going to list an ingredient called "pig fat", therefore they use 'Glycerin' or 'Sodium Tallowate'.
NOTE: Glycerin can be taken from different animals or plants or vegetables - so before you disguard that product, double check to see which type of 'Glycerin' is used. If it is plant or vegetable then it is OK to use.

All you need to do is search for each ingredient online, it is worth it in the end trust me! Here is a useful list of animal products to start you off. You could just need to check out your favourite products, rather than the whole range if you don't want to :)

And if you need to know who test on animals and who do not and you can't find the info on the company website: PETA are here to help!

In 2009 there was a ban on animal testing in the EU for cosmetic ingredients, however that is only in the EU. Animal testing is still ongoing throughout the world. Our products come from large companies based all around where these rules do not apply. Not forgetting the possible loop holes that some companies may have found to continue testing on animals in the EU. Only Allah knows, but we can all do our bit inshallah!

Xlash (Bimatoprost) Reviewed!

Every girl dreams to have healthier, longer and thicker eyelashes as it is a mark of beauty and also style. Now, the dream has come true. You can have healthier, thicker and longer eyelashes. Growing eyelashes has never been simpler and safer with Xlash. 

 

 

What is Xlash?
Xlash is the world’s fastest-acting eyelash growth treatment. It is powerful yet mild on your eyelashes. Within weeks, you can experience the change with wonderfully long and thick eyelashes. It is used when you have poor eyelashes and are looking for fuller eyelashes using an all natural method and not just artificial means just like false eyelashes or even impregnation of hair.
What makes Bimatoprost very good?
Well, the truth that it is not limited only to eyelashes increasing. Actually, it has a number of other useful medical properties. If you are suffering from glaucoma or ocular hypertension, Xlash is actually firstly used in treating these medical conditions. The eye issues are triggered because of pressure increase in the optic nerves in the eyes. What Xlash does is dealing with these issues very well by outflow of the aqueous liquid out of the eyes.
In fact, most of the patients who used this Xlash against this ailment discovered that they have grown their eyelashes longer. So there you have it, 2 rabbits in one hit. Not merely you treat you glaucoma problem but you also grow your eyelashes back.
How should you use Xlash (Bimatoprost)?
Follow your doctors's directions when using Xlash (Bimatoprost) to get the most effective results from treatment. When dealing with eyelashes you are recommended to use a specialized applicator. Put 1 drop onto the applicator and also brush it through the upper lash of one eye. Do it again the method on the other lash using a brand new applicator. It is recommended to use a different applicator for each eyelash and to never use the medication to the lower eyelashes. When treating open angle glaucoma one drop is usually administered into the eye everyday, but your specific directions may differ depending on your health condition as well as the severity of your symptoms. Ask your pharmacist or physician any queries you have regarding using the drugs to make sure the right administration.
Side effects:
Side effects that have been reported by patients who have used Xlash (Bimatoprost) include:
· Irritation of the eyes
· Unwanted hair growth
· Eye redness
· Darkening of the eyelashes
· Darkening of the skin around the eyes
Warning:
If the solution often comes into contact with the eye itself, it may ultimately result in a darkening of the iris pigmentation. However, if the patient is careful not to get the medication into their eye(s), this can be avoided.
Precautions:
Special care should be taken to make sure no Xlash (Bimatoprost) solution enters the eye.
If you have an allergic or even hypersensitive reaction, look for emergency medical attention. Possible signs and symptoms include trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, chest tightness, skin rashes, swelling and hives.
