Now I am not the kind of gal who wins things (lottery, bingo or Scrabble... FYI I have never played bingo) but after posting some reviews on the Organic Surge website I was lucky to win some goodies.. the fab Five Bundle to be precise. I already use some of the products in the range and I love those (Daily Facial Wash, Gentle Meadow Hand & Nail Cream and Moisture Boost Shampoo), so to sample some others was a treat.
Here's what I won.
A quick low-down of the products:
Daily Facial Wash - gentle and non irritating /doesn't leave skin feeling tight or dry.
Tropical Bergamot Shower Gel - some may not like the fragrance, but not over powering. A good wake me up.
Spiced Lily Foaming Bath - makes me want to fall asleep and drift off to exotic climes.
Gentle Meadow Body Lotion - didn't think this would be hydrating/nourishing enough for me but I was proved wrong. I am a cocoa butter fan, really enjoyed using this and felt refreshing on the skin - good for hot/sticky days.
Blissful Daily Moisturiser - I did use this when it first launched in Boots, good for normal/sensitive skins - I need something a little more richer.
Overall, I am really impressed with the products. I love the ethos of the company - it does not use parabens, sls,and is free from harsh chemicals , and is so reasonably priced.
I would totally recommend checking out the range - whether your a teen getting serious about skincare or someone who loves to love their skin (in all its wholesome-ness). Discover HERE (limited two for three offer currently on).

Mad Men inspired
Not a particularly original post I admit but I love the colour combination I used for this look.
All the products mentioned are very pigmented so I advise building up the colour gradually to achieve the intensity you like.
I love this look for summer days and it makes me happy!
Skin: Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation SPF15
MAC Select Moisturecover concealer
Eyes: Shu Uemura eyeshadow in ME Orange 250 (love this colour)
MAC Blacktrack fluidline
Cheeks: MAC Salsa Rose (may not be available/or in Pro stores only)
Lips: MAC impassioned lipstick
I would love to know what summer looks you are rocking and the inspiration behind them.

Jubilee face
It's bank holiday weekend here in the UK and thanks to Queenie it's a four day break... yayy!
Except true to Blighty weather it has been wet, cold and very grey... boo.
So to pull myself out of further glumness (purely weather related) I put on some slap and headed out to a party. It may have been a kiddies do, but the jubilation of the Jubilee was definately the focus.
I am mad for red lippy and Pixi's succulent lip twin in Poppy Red helped me to get in the mood.
The mug shot
P.S This colour is great for the cheeks too. Don't be scared by the colour as it blends beautifully. I prepped lips with No 7 Lip definer in Redd.
I'd love to know what makeup looks you lovely readers have been rocking for this holidays.

Quick summer face
The weather is hot and the mood good.
Not wanting to spend ages doing my makeup in the morning this look has been my go to look.
It's really quick and easy and involves my favourite orange/coral tones.
Here's what I've been using: Face: Bourjois healthy Mix Foundation in shade 56, MAC Moisturecover concealer in 30, Shu Uemura brow pencil in Stone gray, Eyes: MAC tan pigment (also on cheeks), Bourjois Volumizer mascara, Cheeks: MAC tan pigment and cream coluor base Virgin Isle (must have purchase), lips: Maybelline Coral Tonic.
It really is a nice, glowy look for sunny days and super easy.
Tell me what are your favourite quick summer looks?
