THE ESSENCE VAULT FRAGRANCES: You Wouldn’t Tell The Difference

THE ESSENCE VAULT FRAGRANCES: You Wouldn't Tell The Difference

I am sure you have already seen all the ads around, be it on Facebook, Instagram you name it. What I’m I talking about? The essence vault fragrances, if you like smelling good or just want to have a great scent overall and think you need to have the original designer perfume, then I’m here to tell you that it’s time to save up your coin. I know that buying expensive designer perfume sounds good and all but what if you could have the same fragrance at a fraction of the price and not be able to tell the difference? Then if this sounds interesting to you, I am urging you to check out the essence vault fragrances. 

I first saw the ad on Instagram and clicked on it accidentally while scrolling, I wanted to get a present for my husband’s birthday and decided to try different stores and products out there. So I decided to bite the bullet and get him some to test out if they were worth the hype. Well, I ended up buying three bottles which will probably last him forever and the best part is a little goes a long way and lasts all day too. After seeing how great they were, I got myself some too and l am definitely happy with my purchase.

MY FACE MASK REVIEW

MY FACE MASK REVIEW

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all having a great start to the week. If you read my updated skincare routine, then you already know how I have changed it up quite a bit from trying Korean skincare to avoiding some products entirely. I have been into skincare for quite some time now, and after getting the routine that suits me and my skin type, it still hasn’t made it easy when my skin decides to just breakout out of nowhere or sometimes due to the dreaded hormones, either way, it’s a battle I am trying to conquer. I added some facial masks to my routine which I am liking. This is my face mask review and it’s an updated version.

MY SKINCARE ROUTINE UPDATED VERSION

MY SKINCARE ROUTINE UPDATED VERSION

Let’s talk skincare,

It took me a while to figure out what my skin really needs, and had to learn how to keep up with it during changing seasons and hormonal breakouts. I started researching more about Korean skincare, and the number of steps it takes for daytime and night-time routines were too much for me. After trying it for a while I noticed that I needed to reduce some of the products since my skin was taking none of that layering system, so I decided to create my own spin on Korean skincare with the number of products my skin can take. If you read my post on the best tips for sensitive skin, then you now know that my skin has become super sensitive and I have to be very careful when I choose products to apply to my skin and body too. This is my skincare routine updated version.

I also know that with this pandemic, self-care is important so before we are released to the world without restrictions, I decided to just share what has been working for me and if you need some ideas for some products. Also, it’s been a long time coming for me to actually stick to a routine that works and hasn’t caused me major skin problems hence the no photo sessions in most of my posts. Hoping to change that soon since my camera roll is empty.

BEST TIPS FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

Hi,

Happy new week everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend and also enjoyed the rain that came with it, that is if you were indoors. Anyway today I am back with a skincare post, in my skincare products I want to try out this year post, I told you about my spring allergy and how it flares up and also what I wanted to do to deal with it. What I was not expecting is it to come back again this time of the year even though I knew it was just a Spring thing. I already knew I had sensitive skin and if you read the post on the products that didn’t work for me, then you will see how I almost burnt my face off. My skin is definitely not my friend right now, hence why I am here with best tips for sensitive skin.

I do have sensitive skin and it keeps getting more sensitive as time goes, I never used to really have any problems with my skin until I moved from Croatia and then everything just started doing it’s own thing. Anyway, these are some of the tips that have helped in my experience when dealing with sensitive skin.

6 SKINCARE PRODUCTS I WANT TO TRY OUT THIS YEAR

6 SKINCARE PRODUCTS I WANT TO TRY OUT THIS YEAR

Hiya,

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Spring is here and as much as I’d like to be happy and cheerful, it usually comes with some consequences for me. I am not saying hay fever and sneezing but mine is like double that where it not only attacks my eyes but from last year, my face has decided to get coin like swellings out of the blue either on the side of my face or dead centre on my forehead or the current one right on the side of my nose. The funny thing is it only comes during Spring, decides to stay all through Summer and then Autumn checks in and my face is clear again. The only thing that has been helping is pills on a daily basis, loads of concealer and the thought of these 6 skincare products I want to try out this year.

Anyway, I didn’t come today to say about my skin issues but it’s nice to say it so that if you meet me anywhere and see something bulging from my face just know it’s my Spring allergies. So today I have a post on skincare products I would love to try, I already wrote about products that didn’t work for me a while back do check them out here. There are so many but I just chose the ones I have been keeping my eyes on for a while.

I have tried many ways of cleaning my brushes until I found an easy way. This is how to easily clean your makeup brushes.

BEAUTY USES FOR COCONUT OIL

beauty uses for coconut oil

Ever since coconut oil came into the scene, it’s all everybody talks about and so many recipes have come from it that look so delicious and I’m still yet to try, but there are also beauty uses for coconut oil apart from just using it for cooking. Now before I continue, you all know that I can’t apply this oil on my face because it just doesn’t work for me and I already wrote about it in my other post here. But I do use it in other ways when it comes to hair and body, these are some of the beauty uses for coconut oil that I usually use when need be.

BEAUTY USES FOR COCONUT OIL

1.FACE

  •  As a makeup remover, just apply it all over your face, rubbing it in then wiping it off with a makeup wipe.
  • Make it into a face scrub by mixing it with some sugar for smooth, soft and flawless skin.
  • As a face moisturiser, if it doesn’t make you react in anyway, this can be your holy grail.
  •  As a lip scrub with sugar then as a lip balm after so pucker up.
  • If you run out of an under eye cream, get some drops of coconut oil and use that instead.
