They're Real Benefit Mascara Review

Hey guys,
Today I am going to be doing my first mascara review and also its my first review on my blog.

I have really loved this product and I use it everyday and I have swapped this mascara for others loads and always found myself returning back to this mascara because its a mascara I love. Also when using this mascara I can really tell the difference between wearing it and not wearing it.

WITH                                                                   WITHOUT                
On this picture I have two coats on one eye and none on the other eye. I have had the miniature bottle of this mascara for about 9 months now and it still feels like a brand new mascara every time I put it on. Also from this picture we can tell the difference it has made to my lashes, because you can tell they are almost touching my brows and how my natural ones are really short.

The product is definitely be worth the price for the full size bottle seen as it is £19.50 for 8.5g. I would recommend this product to anyone and I will definitely will be buying this full size product over and over again. This will be the mascara I worship.

Thanks for reading this, come back next weeks and check out next weeks post. Meanwhile please share this with your friends and family and follow us on twitter @Mandybelleblog. Also this weekend i will be uploading my first video on my channel so you should check it out also please comment other items you would like me to review.

My Favourites of 2014

Hey Guys,
So I know I am the last person to do this but I  really wanted to do this before my January favourites. So these are my favourites from last year. I hope you enjoy it. 

Beauty
So this year I started to wear more expensive make up after family recommended different brands to me, and my favourite brand that I discovered is benefit and I just love there products, I also really enjoyed the urban decay naked lipgloss. As you can tell I have a lot of benefit samples and i am going to be doing reviews on these so you can tell what my thoughts are about these products

So the Urban Decay lip gloss that I have been loving during 2014 is the urban decay naked lipgloss in the colour Lovechild, this colour is just an amazing colour especially when you want a natural or a basic makeup look.  Also what I love about this lipgloss is that it doesn't feel sticky on your lips and also it has vitamin E, avocado oil and shea butter in it so it makes your lips feel more nourished and hydrated. I would recommend this product. 

I have really loved this product and I use it everyday and I have swapped this mascara for others loads and always found myself returning back to this mascara because its a mascara I love. Also when using this mascara I can really tell the difference between wearing it and not wearing it. The product is definitely be worth the price for the full size bottle seen as it is £19.50 for 8.5g. I would recommend this product to anyone and I will definitely be buying this full  size product before my miniature one runs out and this will                                           be the mascara I will worship.

My next favourite of last year is this hydro smooth lip colour in the colour talk flirty, I love this colour and they are long lasting and I really think that they moisturises the lips at the same time. I absolutely love the packaging as well its just so pretty. I am definitely going to get another one of these because they are such good quality and I would recommend this to anyone.

I have also been trying cheaper makeup brands as well as the more expensive ones the first one is MUA and I have really been loving this one and its their matte lipstick in the colour Lilac Belle, I can say that this is not an as good as the Benefit one but this one costs £1 and it is still long wearing its just not as hydrating but I still love this lipstick and would recommend this product to anyone who prefers cheaper brands or can not afford the more expensive brands               
                
My next favourite is something crucial to my make up routine, this being the porefessional this my favourite primer and because as you only use small amounts at a time this product lasts along time and I would recommend this product to anyone because it just does its job whereas some don't do the job and i would say this is better than other primers that do the job.




My other favourite drugstore brand is Rimmel and this year I have found two products which are like my best friends they are always with me, they just such incredible products. They are both great to get a natural look. I have always struggled to get a foundation that matches my skin tone however this rimmel lasting finish 25hr nude is a great match to my skin tone. Also the stay matte powder definitely makes my makeup last so much longer than other powders which I have tried.

I would recommend these products to anyone because they are amazing and go so well together.





This year I have been painting my nails more often and trying different colours. One of my favourite is the Gelly Hi-shine by Barry M in the colour Rose hip. These are really long lasting and they have a good pigment meaning you don't have to apply loads of layers. Another shade I have loved out of this collection is the colour Blueberry. I love these colours because Rose hip is an amazing neutral shade and my favourite colour is blue and this is colour is just incredible  and I just loved it so this is my most used colour for this year. I would recommend these to anyone just because they are incredible. 


 Once again another product from Rimmel, I just love this brand but this is another well used blue nail varnish this is breakfast in bed in the Rita Ora collection are can't explain how pretty this colour is and I especially love this colour when I am in a rush because it has incredible pigment and it drys quickly. This year I will definitely buy more of these and I might do a review on them in more detail. I think everyone should own these because they are amazing.

The final nail varnish is more expensive than the rest but this is another neutral shade and is Sao Paulo Streets by Nails Inc. This nail varnish was limited edition for the world cup and this one is one I would choose to wear when I have more time to apply it. However I still love this one and would still recommend to people.


This year as well as trying different brands I also tried different makeup brushes and I finally found my favourite brushes these being the real techniques brushes. In 2014 I only owned the expert face brush and it was amazing and because of this one brush i have brought more brushes from them already and they are just incredible. Alot of people love these brushes but I would recommend these to anyone who has not tried them already.

Random
 so this year the random things i have been enjoying the most are books and dvds and my favourite book has to be the fault in our stars. My favourite movie on the other hand was not as easy to choose so I have my top four movies which I have only just really discovered this year these being: fast girls, the fault in our stars and both of the grown ups films.
Youtube Channel
So this year is the year where i found all my favourite youtubers, so i am just going to list all my favourites and I will leave the links to their channel next to their name.

Top 20 Beauty Tips

Hey guys, so these are a few of my  top beauty tips that i feel will be useful to you guys I hope you enjoy.
  1. Use conditioner instead of shaving gel, this makes the hairs softer meaning its easier to shave but also it leaves your legs feeling really soft. The soft feeling lasts much longer than it does when you use shaving gel.
  2. So when you paint your nails and you have made a small mistakes, get a cotton bud and dip it in nail varnish remover then use that to neaten up your nails and get rid of the mistakes.
  3. SMILE, we all have heard that smiles are contagious so we need to prove it smile at everyone you see today it will make them smile. Also you will always look much prettier when you smile and its the best accessory you will ever own, so wear it.
  4. If you would say your hair was not in the best condition I would suggest combing through conditioner in the shower, this will definitely improve the condition of your hair.
  5. Most people use their shampoo and conditioner because of the benefits it suggests, however if you don't change them you won't get the full and best benefits it advertises. So I recommend you change your product every now and then so you will receive the best benefits.
  6. Try all the free samples that you are given or get in magazines because it a free way trying new products and you never know you might find a product that you will love and never stop using.
  7. When your hair has lost all its volume spray dry shampoo into then blow your hair with a hair dryer then within minutes you have volumized hair without any water.
  8. Always remember to remove ALL makeup before you go to bed this will reduce the chances of spots and blackheads meaning your skin will be clearer. 
  9. If you find plucking your eyebrows painful I recommend doing it after you have come out of the shower because you will find that it will be less painful.
  10. You need to keep hydrated this will allow your skin to stay clear and also allow it to have a healthy glow, they recommend that you drink 8 glasses of water.
  11. You should apply sunscreen daily, especially to your face and neck because they are the parts that age the fastest.
  12. If you want to stay healthy you need to remember to have a diet filled with fruit and veg.
  13. So you don't look tired you need to make sure you get at least 8 hours of sleep each night, this will stop you from looking tired.
  14. When you about to paint your nails we all shake the bottles to loosen it but don't. Instead role it in your hands because shaking it will cause air bubbles.
  15. This sounds really stupid but practice different facial expressions daily, this tones your facial muscles.
  16. Everyday remember to laugh especially when you are stressed this will definitely help reduce your stress.
  17. When removing nail varnish I recommend using a jay cloth these make it so easy to remove nail varnish. Also they are reusable, last forever and are really easy to find in shops seen as most supermarkets will sell them also places like wilkinsons will sell them.
  18. Okay so your about to go out but you look really tired, I would definitely recommend putting ta bags on your eyes, obviously wet the tea bags but after a few minutes your eyes will look and feel refreshed.
  19. If your what to have really nice nails without having to paint them then wait for them to dry, just place your nails in a bowl of lemon juice for a couple of minutes then pat them dry and they should look whiter then they did before. Obviously longer you leave them in the lemon juice whiter they look.
  20. So if your hair is starting to look like it getting greasy and you are in a rush so don't have time to wash it, simply brush talcum powder through your hair and it will freshen up your hair.

My Fashion Inspirations

My fashion inspirations are the ones that help guide my fashion sense, these in include the Kardashian's, the Jenner's, Binky Felstead and Zoella. All these people are just so beautiful and have an amazing fashion sense. 

The Kardashians are just different, I know you are going to say their rich and their all snobs but I would never agree, these are three hard working women that deserve everything they have, they have never been handed anything on a plate they have worked for it. They have their own individual fashion that makes them unique. I love how they dress because you never dress the same its always different.

The Jenners, these two amazing girls are just so pretty & hard working just like their sisters. When you compare their fashion sense their nothing alike but both of their sense of style is just amazing and to be honest I am proud to have successful people as my fashion inspiration. 


Okay so recently I have a new programme that I am loving an that is Made In Chelsea and to be honest as soon as I sure Binky I said to myself "she is the prettiest person on this programme" and I don't think my opinion is going to change.


My final fashion inspiration, the one that has helped me so much, the one that is so kind that I would to be here friend and the one that does not listen to the people that aim in ruining people's confidence. Zoella gets so much hate and I will never understand why, the people that give her all this hate are not hard working, are not as successful and they are simply just jealous of Zoe. Zoe is 24 but she is the most successful 24 year old I have ever seen, in the past 5 years she has: started a blog and made it successful, started a youtube channel and made it successful, started a second youtube channel and made it successful, helped her brother joe start a youtube channel, created and launched her own bath an body range, spoke about anxiety and depression and helped many that are suffering from it and finally this month she is releasing her own book. I will stand up for Zoella because no matter what she is successful and incredibly pretty. I love Zoe's fashion because it's different to everybody else that I could admire, it's unique. Zoe has always been my major fashion idol and I am proud of it. 

I felt like after all the hate Zoe has been receiving recently that this would be a great way to start this blog because she is an amazing person and she DOES NOT deserve any of this hate she has been receiving. Anyway please come back next sunday for another post.
