My Tanning Routine | Cocoa Brown



The only tan I have ever used and actually liked is Cocoa Brown. With having really sensitive skin Im really careful with what I use, especially regarding skincare.

Ever girl no matter who you are or where your from, you feel fab after you've tanned, Don't try to deny it. You know its true. So when ever I get tan as a present or buy it myself, its like a streamer goes of inside me and Im like yay!!



Cocoa Brown is not only a brilliant tan that lasts and lasts but it smells A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!
It smells like a sandy beach and it makes me so happy. Then with the added of bonus of looking great from being tanned.

I usually tan every second week if not every week with 1hr Tan and then every time I feel Im getting a bit pale, I'll lash on a bit of Gentle Bronze just to let my skin breath a bit from the Tan. I also Tantour once a week, but I'll do a separate blog post on that.

The tan and the gradual tanner both fade out flawlessly on me, the only problem area's I have are my neck and the insides of my elbows as they get dry, but that's just me.

 The tan will stay on for a full week with one application so its good for a Pre- holiday glow.

Its also very Inexpensive at on €7.99 in most Pharmacy's and It is available in nearly every Pharmacy that you go into.


Do you have a preferred tan? Tell me about it below.


XOXO Sarah.

Nivea Cleansing Lotion



I used this at a friend Jean's house and went straight to the pharmacy the next day to get it.

The one I have is Normal/Combination skin, it promises to cleanse and hydrate but also removes your makeup and makes your skin feel amazing. My favourite part of the day is now taking off my make up. My skin is so  clear now and so soft.

It contains Vitamin E, which is an antioxidant which protects & repairs your skin, and Hydra IQ, which hydrates your skin for up to 24hrs.

I have very sensitive skin and was a bit worried about using a new product but I've been using this for about two months and the results has been good.

I've even had a few people comment on how much better my skin looks at the minute, so yay for more Make up free days.

I would 100% recommend that you need to buy this, it will change your skin for the better, its also very in-expensive so that's always a plus.

OOTD | Noir



Jacket : Quiz
Shoes : Penneys
Jeans : Topshop
Top  : H&M
Belt : Aliexpress


If there was anything you ever need to know about me it would be that my wardrobe is literally all black. An outfit is always so chic when its all black.

 Im obsessed with these t-bar shoes from Primark, anything with a pointy toe is automatically mine. 

I got the Belt from Aliexpress, its a dupe of a Hermes belt, you really wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

My Jacket is from Quiz, its a waterfall coat with lace sleeves, and my top is just a long sleeve black top with a v neck.

Ysl Mascara | False Lash Effect


At Christmas, Cara Pharmacy in town stocked some high end products, and I had intended on getting this for my mum. ( Sorry Mum! )
I'm so glad I kept it for myself and I've been wanting to write a post on this for so long and can't actually believe its taking me this long.



This and one other Mascara I'm currently obsessed with, (The other I will write a post on soon). I can't actually remember how much this was, as it came in a set with an eye makeup remover as well, I think it was €26ish for some reason.


This is my go-to Night Time Mascara, (The other one that I love is my Daytime Mascara ), So many people have actually thought I was wearing fake lashes at work, Its great if you haven't the time or the energy or just couldn't be bothered to put on fake lashes.
My lashes are quite short so it really does make a noticeable difference and isn't clumpy.
I'm obsessed with the brush, It makes for great application and the mascara is infused with oils.


It did take me a while to get on board with this though,( not gonna lie ), but once I got used to it I couldn't stop using it, Its available to buy on Boots, YSL and Debenhams. It comes in 6 different colours but I used High Density Black.

If you've used this Mascara let me know what you thought about it, Also let me know about some other good High End Mascara/ Makeup Products, I think this is the first High End Mascara I've used .

XOXO Sarah.

Sleek Face Form Contouring Kit

 Eske Pharmacy in town have recently stocked the entire Sleek range,and I was beyond excited, I bought quite a few items but this particular product I really loved an thought I'd review it.



I had heard a lot about this product from other beauty bloggers but every time I went in it was sold out, I realise why now.


The Contour is very subtle, its almost just a light glow which is beautiful on. Its also very pigmented.
 I use mine on a daily basis, for around a month and I haven't hit anywhere near pan yet. For a night out I use another bronzer along with it,


The highlighter is so pretty its like an iridescent sparkly off white ( obsessed with highlighters btw ), this is also very pigmented and leaves your cheekbones with a beautiful matte sheen to them.

The Blush is pretty on Irish skin or anyone with pale skin as its quite a pinky coral colour. It again is very pigmented and as you can see from the picture above it has a shimmer to it also.


One thing I love in a palette like this is a mirror, and I love the mirror on this palette. Its great for travelling and on the move to do the rest of your make up with. The palette is also lightweight and sleek. (Ignore the Pun). Perfect for Summer.

This will definitely be a palette I will be repurchasing again and again for the foreseeable future, I honestly can't fault it, and its only €12.99, such a good price for what you get.You essential have 3 products in 1, I hope you go out and purchase it and you love it as much as I do. :)

If you don't have access to it in a Pharmacy, Sleek have a website that you can buy from here.

Let me know some other Sleek Products you love and think I should try.


XOXO Sarah
