Neutrogena - Eye Makeup Remover


Hey guys.

I know, it's been awhile but I've been busy trying to create Halloween looks over on my Instagram which I would love if you gave a follow - @briannarue

I wear quite heavy eye makeup on the daily so a lone cleanser just doesn't cut it for me. I need an eye makeup remover to help remove the majority of it before going in with my cleanser. This is an oldie but a goldie. As often as I've seen this across the blogging community this is the first time I've thought to pick it up and give it a go. I'm pleasantly surprised with this, it's extremely affordable and works well at getting that tough gunk off the eyes. I had no issues with it stinging or burning my eyes which I've had with some other so called "eye makeup removers" although I don't suffer with sensitive skin either so I can't speak to that. There's really nothing special about this product but it gets the job done effectively which is really what I was looking for.

What do you use for that pesky eye makeup?

The Pet Chronicles - Luna

 





Good morning loves.

I've got a different type of post today. I wanted to talk about my big, old beauty of a dog Luna.
My whole life I wanted a dog and she came to us at a time where we honestly weren't really in the position to own a pet as we didn't have our own place and didn't really know where we going to be in the next year.
Her previous owner could no longer keep her and although she was supposed to be with us only for a weekend on a trial run her owner never came back. Fast forward four years later and we now have our own place with a big yard for her to run back and forth playing guard dog. She definitely has her quirks, she's extremely protective of her people and space and gets very anxious if left alone for any period of time. Due to her separation anxiety she gets to come along on 99% of trips we take and it;s not easy lugging around your 120 lb dog. I couldn't be happier that she popped into my life when she did and I'm glad we found a way to keep her. She's the sweetest most loving dog I could have ever asked for and it breaks my heart to know she won't live forever.  
This post has turned into a love note for my dog, but who doesn't treat and love their pets like family?

Tell me about your pets down below.

LUSH - Turtle Immersion


 

Hello loves.

I love Lush, I mean how can you not? 
Just look at how cute this little turtle bath bomb is! Looking at the website it looks as though this is a fairly new product to their store as there are zero reviews on it which I've never seen on another product before this one. It's larger in size when compared to their average range of bath bombs and has balls of agar, agar which is a jelly like substance formed from red algae. According to the Lush website these are meant to represent the major plastic problem our marine friends face living in the ocean. I have to say it represented it well because I got quite annoyed with the jelly sticking to me and the sides of my tub! It slowly fizzed away leaving the water a lovely shade of green and like most Lush products left the skin feeling smooth and silky. Although I found it annoying I do like that they included the jelly balls as a reminder that we need to start taking better care of our planet and the creatures within it. Lush is a fantastic company who is doing their part to take care of the world by being cruelty free and using fair trade ingredients. 

If you've been living under a rock and have never set foot in a Lush store, go now! What are you waiting for?!
