Review | Dainty Doll Pan Concealer

Hayya Lovelies today i'm still a little sleepy and wobbly as yesterday I had a sedation when I had a biopsy. wasn't a nice experience and dont wish it on anyone. but i'm off collage today as I had to be watched for 24 hours after it so here I am righting blog posts as i'm board out my mind so thought I would get some posts scheduled for while i'm away for a few days. 

Anyways today i'm doing a review on the dainty doll pan concealers. 


As you may know dainty doll is on frangrance direct for about £1.99 per product so while this offer was on (its still on) I picked up a blush and 2 concealers. Im going to review the concealers today. 

Dainty Doll | Is a brand created by Nicole from girls aloud. she created this line for people with really pale skin like her. she always had problems getting foundation pale enough to soot her skin tone so decided to create her own range dainty doll. 



the two shades I bought were 001 and 004 as I would mix for in between shades. 


First thoughts | I first thought these concealers were pretty crap, I know alot of bloggers have said this as well. I tried using this product with both my finger and a brush and it just seemed like they were very powdery and not creamy at all, but that was until I tried using it the way I was planning on using it. as a makeup artist I have to be very sanatery and use a spatula when it comes to a cream product. so here I went scraping this product out the tub like I would with a lippy or a eyeliner. guess what this concealer is actully really good if you scrape it out. its creamy and has quite a lot of coverage. 

What I Like | I like that there are supper light shades and I also like how this applys and the fact you can use it to highlight. 

What I Dont Like | this is not a problem for me but I know alot of people dont want to have to scrape there concealer out to get it to be creamy and to apply. 

Final thought | If you dont mind scraping out concealer or your a makeup artist wanting to get more concealers this is a good product expeshaly for the £1.99 price tag. the packaging is also very cute. this product is not a must have but it can be quite good if your looking for a concealer that will not brake the bank. 

what do you think of this concealer?

Now I have more items coming so I might do another post in the next month or so. 


So I went to a few places, MAC, Illamasqua, Elf, and Boots. So far i'm enjoying using all these products

Lush Review | Mmmelting Marshmallow moment Luxury bath melt

Haya there my lovelies, today is yet another lush review, sorry if its a bit boring its just I have been supper busy with shoots and collage and health and other stuff. If you want to see some photos from the shoot do let me know in the comments. Today's lush review is on the mmmelting marshmallow moment luxury bath melt. 


This is a pretty bath melt, its pink so of coarse its pretty, it also dose look like a marshmallow. This bath melt would easly do 4 baths as it creates a lot of fluff. It smells like the famous snow fairy but its better as this is available all year round. 


(I just had to add a picture of water hitting it as its pretty)



You cant tell but this bath melt maid the water a movi pink and leaves it smelling amazing

Lush say | Great for dry skin, as the almond oil and cocoa butter will leave your skin silky smmmooth. Also the chamomile, marigold and marshmallow all help to calm irritated or delicate skin types. 
If you love our sweet products like Snow Fairy Shower Gel and Godmother Soap, you’ll be pleased to know that this has the same fragrance. 

My thoughts | This bath melt if defiantly worth the price at only £3.85 and can do 4 or more baths. Its available all year and smells like the Christmas snow fairy so if your down in the dumps or just wish it was Christmas this is the perfect product to through into your bath. I would recommend this to people who like sweet smelling items but I dont think its a scent that everyone would like. 

Pricing- £3.85 its available at all lush locations or online
