I haven’t really done many CSCs so I thought I would do one which, really, I have been wanting to do anyway. I love Selena Gomez’ style, and I sort of use her style within mine. Here’s Selena at ‘The Thing’ premiere this year…

My mum is clearing out a load of make-up, so I decided to some reviews on a few things, that she had recommended.
This set is great! It includes everything for great feeling skin. I especially love the Moisturising Mist, and Body Lotion, as they both smell great, and feel amazing. The Mist is like a toner, but does more. The Body Lotion is great for dry skin, and is great for just relaxing! I have the smaller Body Butter myself, and I love it. It is great for after showers and baths, so you can lock in all the moisture!
Scent: 8/10 – Nice, fresh smell that is great for when you want to feel special.
Look: 9/10 – Soap & Glory always make their products look vintage, which I love!
Overall: 8.5/10 – This set is great, especially for gifts, or just for yourself!
My mum loves these Dior products. The Airflash gives a healthy glow, and a natural tint, and is also very easy to apply. It is great for light skin, and oily skin, because it has a silky matte finish. The Bronzer is great as it only comes out very fine, and you can add however much you want!
Application (Foundation): 8.5/10 – Good, but not the best as a spray. (Bronzer): 8.5/10 – Again, good, but not the best as a spray.
Tint (Foundation): 9/10 – Light, natural, silky matte finish. (Bronzer): 8/10 – Good amount of tint and colour.
Overall (Foundation): 8/10 -Would recommend, but not the best. (Bronzer): 8/10 – Again, would recommend, but not the best.
Chanel:
My mum has some other Chanel Foundations, which she loves, so she recommended this one, because it is very compact, and small, meaning it is great for your handbag! It has great coverage, and goes on really well, and it has a nice matte colour.
Application: 9/10 – Goes on well, and the coverage is great.
Tint: 8/10 – Good colour, but not very strong. You may need to set with powder.
Overall: 8.5/10 – Nice, and natural, would recommend.
This is quite a good spray tan, but it doesn’t really go on very well. It can streak if you aren’t careful. It is a nice colour, which is a healthy bronze, and not a tanned orange. It runs out quickly, so if you are very pale, I would go for a bigger one.
Tint: 9/10 – Healthy, bronze tint.
Spray: 7/10 – Can be streaky, so be careful
Overall: 8/10 – Good, but I would only use it for a ‘touch up’.
Garnier:
This is a very good spray tan. It goes on well, it is a nice colour, and it doesn’t come off easily. It lasts a long time, and looks very natural. You may need to wipe around your ankles to blend the colour, because otherwise it will drip, and look like a tan line.
Tint: 9/10 – Healthy, natural tint.
Spray: 8.5/10 – Easy, and good coverage. Be careful on the ankles.
Overall: 9/10 – Very good, and natural. Also, very long lasting

Recently I have been watching load of make-up tutorials and videos on YouTube, and finding loads of cool ones. So, I have put together a list of Foundations, which I found were good (in the videos), and 1 or 2 which have great reviews.
After seeing the cutepolish tutorial on Chevron Nail Art, I came up with an idea! In my ‘Art Room’, as we call it, there are tones of stickers, and scrapbook things, so I delved into a box, and found some funky stickers. If you want to know what I did with them, look below…
Sequin Trim Shift Dress £65.00 (Warehouse), Edge to Edge Soft Jacket £60.00 (Warehouse), Square Bead Multi Strand Necklace £26.00 (Warehouse), TREAT Suede Shoe Boots £65.00 (ASOS), Benefit Silky Finish Lipstick £14.00 (ASOS) & Benefit Hervana Face Powder £23.50 (ASOS).
If you haven’t seen ‘cutepolish‘ on YouTube already, you must. There are loads of videos for nail art, and they are all so good. This video, I especially liked because you don’t have to go out and buy nail art tools. I tried it out, and found it quite hard, so maybe you guys could try it out, and see how you get on with it.
If you get chance do it yourself, please tell me how it went by commenting, or even tweet me at @TollyDollyPosh.
The reason for this post is because one of the big trends this A/W, is big hair, which means you are going to need all the products in the world, especially the good ones! So I have chosen 5 products which I think are very good, and are worth the price.
