Would i repurchase in 2015 ?



Over the last few months I've been coming to the end of quite a few of my products, some of my favourite ones too. So i thought I'd do a little run down of some that i would and wouldn't repurchase if or when they run out.

We'll kick things off with the most expensive one but one I am always inclined to repurchase when I run out...

Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream.
I can honestly say that in the 4 years I have used this, no other product has yet come close to taking pride of place. I'm a big advocate of using anti aging from a younger age, advised is from around 25 but i started using Elemis pro collagen when i was about 23. I had always used other Elemis moisturisers but when i first trained in Elemis at the age of 18 this was way too rich for my youthful, acne proned skin. Fast forward 5 years and my first time of using it, getting instantly hydrated, plumped looking skin and I've been hooked ever since. I think this one's a keeper but If you have any suggestions of any others that you think will live up to my huge amount of love for this leave me a lil' comment below.

Bourjous CC Cream.
This was a totally random buy when i was on one of my Boots splurges. I had come across a blog post about this. When i was in there a couple of weeks later i decided to get one, having no luck what so ever with bb creams i didn't hold out much hope but this proved me wrong. I love it & will definitely be re buying. Also this is something I have never reviewed so keep your peepers out for that.

Lancome Artliner liquid eyeliner

This product was used in EVERY Tanya Burr make up tutorial throughout 2013/14 so if the make up guru herself loves it it's gotta be good right?  .. Well half right, firstly it's super difficult to get a nice even wing as it's pretty liquidy - yeah the name sorta points that out i know but it is very runny! But i was torn as its super black and looks beautiful when it's on! Still unsure whether I'd repurchase this one.

L'Oréal eye make up remover.

I was told to give this a go by one of my lovely clients. In a mad panic one night I was telling her I'd come to the end of my Clarins eye make up remover to which she told me thiswas a pretty great dupe. I bought it and loved it but once again never reviewed it but will 100% be repurchasing this again!.
Una brennan superfacialist rose face oil
I was bought this for my birthday, which is 12th july if you were wondering. I love a lot of the Una Brennan superfacialist range but had never tried this. I use this before i cleanse my skin to loosen up my make up. It completely changed my facial routine and i absolutely love it. A lot more than the vitamin c Una Brennan one I purchased not too long back. I am in the midst of trying another facial oil out but at the moment this is still number 1. I would happily buy this again.

Rimmel wake me up consealer 

This was a complete blogger made me buy it purchase. A few well known ones raved about how good this was but I've really not enjoyed it. I don't think the coverage is very good and the consistency is quite liquidy which leaves you needing more causing a build up which can look cakey. I have only used this a couple of times but i won't re-buy this for sure!.

Grow Gorgeous.

Yes, I was totally suckered in by every known blogger promoting this. On the flipside I wanted my hair to be long and thick so I was an easy target. Being £20 i did hesitate and talked myself into it, now I haven't noticed a difference yet other than my hair looking healthier after I have used it so I guess that's a bonus, but I won't race out to re buy this.
I could have chosen a lot more to use on this post.. but i think you'll agree it's long enough already!!

Thanks for reading and can you believe were already 4 days into jan! The year is going to fly by once again.
