Sephora & Bath & Body Works Haul

Last months, I traveled to Dubai & Saudi Arabia for a few days. I may have bought a feeeww things from Sephora and Bath & Body Works. Take a look: 


This definitely changes your brow game! I use this to fill in my eyebrows AND you can use it as a gel eyeliner. It is one of my favourite makeup products evsss!

I love the wand on this mascara! It curls your lashes so well and makes them look long & thick & beautiful af. I bought 2 of these because I was scared I'd run out of it! 


I bought 3 pairs of these beauties. "Giselle" "Bridget" & "Raquel". Obviously these are the best lashes like EVER. I am obsessed with Huda Beauty's products and one day I will own her lip contours omg. 


I use this on my cheeks and it gives me the best glow/ highlight ever. I also use it as a cream eyeshadow all over my lid! The texture is so smooth and creamy.
& MAC x Charlotte Olympia Lipstick in 'Starlett Scarlet'. This lipstick is also the perfect red and will look amazing for a night time makeup look. 


This is an instant body bronzer, and the best part is that it comes with a built-in sponge located in the lid of the product. It's the perfect colour for my skin tone. and ZERO TANLINES YAY!


My faaavorite eye makeup remover. It makes your eyes feel so moisturized afterwards. It contains lash-strengthening ingredients which is so good too, duh. 

- Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in 'Stromboli'.
My all-time favourite foundation. It gives your skin the perfect glow and has a good amount of coverage. I highly recommend this foundation!


- Anastasia Beverly Hills Glowkit in 'That Glow'.
These highlighters are literally EVERYTHING. These shades go so well with any skin tone and they're highly pigmented. I normally mix the colours together and use it on the tops of my cheekbones and down the bridge of my nose!


- Bath & Body Works Body Lotions & Body Mists
I got these in the Papaya & Guava flavors/ scents. I love the fruity smells of these products and the body lotion is super moisturizing. Also, I'm obsessed with the packaging!

- Bath & Body Works Candles
I bought 3 different candles in the scents "Japanese Cherry Blossom", "Watermelon Lemonade" & "Spring Tulips". These are all 3-Wick candles and smells like a dream!


- Vaseline Intensive Care Spray Moisturizer
I wish we had these in SA! They just so convenient and sprays on and absorbs so quickly. It does not leave my skin greasy at all. I also bought this at a local drugstore in Dubai and not in Sephora. I'm sad I only bought 2 because I know i'm gonna run out of this soon! :(

Hope you enjoyed this post! More hauls coming soon & leave a comment telling us what you'd like to see on our blog in the future!

3 Amazing Homemade Face Masks Using Honey

1❤  Sugar & Honey Face Mask / Exfoliator



You will need:
Brown sugar
Honey

Method:
Mix the brown sugar and honey together until it forms a paste. Rub it all over your face, but be careful around the eye area as your skin is more sensitive. You can leave this on your face for 10 - 12 minutes and it can act as a mask, or you can wet your face and use it as a wash/ exfoliator. This works as an amazing lip scrub too.

2❤  Honey & Avocado Face Mask
You will need:
1 Large Avo
1 1/2 Tbsp Honey

Method:
Cut the avocado in half & discard the pits. Using a fork or your hands, mash it up in a small bowl. Add your spoons of honey and using a fork, blend the mixture together. Scoop it out of the bowl and store it in a jar, or air tight container in the fridge. This can be used within 3 - 5 days.
To use, rub onto your face with hands and leave for 15 mins. Rinse with cool water. 




3❤  Cinnamon & Honey Blackhead Mask
You will need:
Cinnamon
Honey
Method:
Mix the two ingredients together to form a paste and apply it on your T-Zone. Leave it on for 10-12 minutes for best results! This is my favorite one out of the three face masks!
