BEAUTY | Tanning mistake!

As i sit here about to write this review all that is going through my mind is the following

A. My mum is going to literally kill 
me cos i have just stained her white bath towel

2. My boyfriend will probably get a fright later 
and think i have had a nasty 
accident in my WHITE!! white, why white Sarah? Pj bottoms

and
D. Why did i tan before i did my henna * big white patch alert*

So as you can probably tell from the title and i hope my thoughts ( c'mon!! i stopped pooing my pants a while back now ....) this post is about all things tanning! I don't need to tell you that we seem to have lost summer cos i think we are all pretty much aware and pretty much annoyed that the sun decided to skip us this year and leaving us pale bodied females walking around. 

I only really have one holy grail product which is of course the Marissa Carter cocoa brown 1 hour tan mousse. I swear by this product ladies!! So when i run out, i was at the shop looking for my bae when i saw another product in the same brand but just a slight difference that it was Night and day instant and gradual tanner. Im sure i bought it cos it was cheaper and if you know me, you know im a tightwad and will try anything that is on offer.

The conclusion of the story is i don't like the new one and i should of just stuck to what worked best for me!

To me this newer one is waaaaay to dark for me, it feels a lot stickier and it leaves weird marks in your skin. So if you have stretch marks or on rough areas like the knees it shows up and makes it look quite clear you have tan on! Not what i want when im tanning. Also as it is an instant tan i find it washes off a lot quicker and you get watermarks so easily, so when i wash up or water splashes at me i have really big watermarks!

Anyway i will insert a before and after and also insert the photo of the new tan and my holy grail fave tan! 

If you have tried one or both these products please let me know your
thoughts, i wonder if its just me and my skin
or it happens for the majority!

Much love,

Sarah

p.s. for your sake invest in a good tanning mitt
with the night and day tan.....you dont wanna see the state of my
thumb! *rolls eyes*

#BEAUTY | My monthly beauty favourites

Seeing as there are way too many beauty products i am LOVING right now i had to compile a post so i could share them with you! I cant be keeping all the goodness to myself now can i?! I have more products than i have enough body parts to use them on BUT i cant ever see myself stopping from trying out new products :') Lets see what i am loving.. Gerard Cosmetics  My love for this brand is no secret, i have a post on just one of the lipsticks alone, here ! haha i know right? i single post on just one lipstick, sorry but i love them that much! sorry not sorry :) Aside from the gorgeous gold bullet packaging the colour range of the liquid lipsticks and lipsticks are just so me. Im such a nude/brown lip colour gal and they have such a range of them. A girl cant have too many nudes! Thats a rule to live by. So far i have UNDERGROUND , LONDON FOG and ICED MOCHA .

#REVIEW | Ammonia FREE hair dye w/ NATURIGIN

There are a lot of hair dyes on the current market and when i am shopping for one i tend to normally stick to one or two brands, more than anything it is to do with price rather than being about a brand i love. All hair dyes have a variety of colours and there ist much else that sets them apart, so for me i am easily swayed and will give most brands a go! Enter... NATURIGIN . This posts is actually a little overdue, sorry guys! I met the lovely people behind the brand at the blogger hangout event which you can read HERE and they told me the wonders about the hair dye. Basically the biggest selling point or best asset shall i say of this product is the fact that it is ammonia free and organic based! The dye itself is free of ammonia, which means it doesnt have the smell of a chemical lab!! I was so pleased and pleasently suprised with the smell of the dye. I really had no idea what to expect but it wasnt at all that strong bleachy smell it was so much more toned down.
