Fairest Of The Mall

How cute is this packaging?!

So this little beauty is the perfect gift set for any tanaholic or anyone that has been wanting to try the Laurensway tans but doesn’t want to part with their £18.95 price tag without trying them first. I have tried Lauren’s way tans before and absolutely love them. My favourite are the darker than dark tanning lotion (which I use once every week or my Xen-tan ones) and the glam tan, this is a spray tan which I use whenever I want to be darker, especially for a night out!

Laurens way use moisturising ingredients in their tanning products, as well as being paraben free and alcohol free. I feel that the darker than dark tanning lotion is a dupe for the xen-tan morrocan oil tan, I used to use this but I feel in love with Laurensway after seeing how cheap they are compared to xen-tan!

Within the gift set you receive 3x 100ml products. Which is amazing, considering the normal size bottles are 250ml. In this particular set, the darker than dark little helpers gift set* you receive a 100ml darker than dark lotion, 100ml glam tan spray and a 100ml after tan moisturiser.

The Laurens way tanning products that I have tried don’t have that typical fake tan biscuity smell, which I hate so much, so this is defiantly a plus for me. I find the tan lasts very well and doesn’t fade patchy, especially if you use their moisturiser which smells lovely, like a tropical smell.

This little beauty only costs £15 and is limited edition for the festive period so be quick if you want to grab one of theses beautys! Laurensway also have some other cute gift sets, in this gorgeous pink wrapping so please check these out too!www.laurensway.co.uk.

So with Christmas only round the corner I have a fantastic cheap and cheerful Christmas present idea for you all.

Miners Cosmetics is an online affordable makeup brand, pretty much everything they sell is under £5 and excellent quality, with the loveliest packaging. For all 3 items I received these totalled £9, Perfect for a secret Santa or stocking fillers.

First of all is the lip-gloss Christmas bauble*. How cute is this? You receive 3 mini lip-gloss’s in three popular shades, a light brown, a baby pink and a vibrant pink. These are great for popping in your clutch bag for a night on the town because they are so cute and small. I like the packaging this comes in too, it’s a clear bauble with a glittery string, I have reused this bauble and filled it with mini chocolates to give to my brother attached to his Christmas present – it’s so versatile if you fancy keeping the lip-gloss’s for yourself! This cute Xmas gift only costs £2.99!

Next up is the Phat Eyelid Liner in gold digger*, what a cute name? This pencil is perfect for the festive period as it’s a lovely sparkly gold, which is really easy to apply and lasted all day with a eyelid primer as I used it all over my lid. The packaging is also mega cute and expensive looking, seen as the product only cost £1.99!

And lastly I got the moisture effect lipstick in English Rose*, I was intrigued to use this as it was featured on This Morning, this lipstick is so moisturising and glossy looking. I think the shade on my lip alternated as one day it looked a lovely pastel pink and the next it looked more like a pink coral, which is fab! This lipstick costs £3.99.

I am looking to purchase the brand new limited edition Tin o’ Tints from Miners Cosmetics, these are flavoured lip balms with a subtitle tint within them, They also come in the cutest packaging, for £2.99 you really can’t go wrong.

You can purchase all of these products from www.minerscosmetics.co.uk please check out their other products, for all you MUA and ELF fans, you may be a Miners Cosmetics convert!
