Bondisands review


So here is my review of the BondiSands gradual tan. I have tried many fake tans and gradual tans believe me and the first thing I notice with this is how lovely it smells. It does say on the bottle that it has a cocoa butter scent and whilst others declare that they have lovely scent, this one actually does. It has a gorgeous Cocoa butter scent that you can smell straight away.

It feels very thin which means I won't feel clogged with tan. Along with the thin consistency it also feels very moisturising which is a bonus as its a gradual tan and a body moisturiser all in one.

Another factor about this product is how quick it dries in. I cannot bare when a tan makes your skin feel sticky, I can't sleep with it on and it just feels so heavy. This one literally felt like I was just moisterering my body with the liquid sinking in straight away like most moisterers do.

As far as the colour goes it is very subtle and natural and will take a few times to build up hense the name of gradual tan. I really love this product even as a moisturiser and scent and knowing its giving you a little colour at the same time.

What's in my bag

I I'm constantly changing and updating what's in my bag but currently here is what is filling up my bag at this moment in time. 

The bag im using today is my Louis Vuitton speedy 60. I would say this is my largest bag and therefore the more goes inside. Don't you find that, the more space the more you put in :/.



Here is my paper chase diary. With my job im here there and every where, and im also a planner so love making plans with my boyfriend and friends. I'm terrible at remembering dates, birthdays and things like that so im always reverting to this little saviour.
My The White Company perfume in Noir, love this smell so much which my boyfriend got me for valentines. 
This on the go The Body Shop vitimin E face mist to just perk me up through the day. 
This little pot of girly-ness from Lush to exfoliate my lips, it has little hearts it has hundreds and thousands, it's red and edible, amazing.
Always carry a lipstick to top myself up through out the day. Today I have the Charlottle Tilbury Glastonberry. 
The colour im currently wearing, Barry M pit stop. Always handy to carry the colour your wearing around incase you need to cover up a little chip to keep you going until your next nail appointment. 
My Givenchy set that has bronzer, blusher and mascara. A great little combo to freshen up my makeup.
Ok so this purse ive had for about ten years, I always say I need a new one but purses are so expensive for the size of them and this Marc by Marc Jacobs one has the most amazing butter soft leather and lasted me so long. 
The Paul Watts Hairdressing tangle tease 
Anti ageing hand cream looks after my hands in these cold days and hopefully will keep them looking smooth with the anti ageing formula. 
My new Whistles shades that im in love with. 

Thanks for reading

New items

Here is a short post on things I have recently purchased. I have been buying a few different items recently not the usual clothes so I thought I would create a post for you to see what I have been loving at the moment. 
This is my newest purchase. This bag by vliegervandam is incredible. Making me look like I'm armed but it the cutest way possible ;) the leather is butter soft and just such a special item that you will see lots and lots on the blog in future posts.
Here are my new finders keepers drop crotch trousers.
I LOVE this Zara perfume, it finally came back in after being off of the shelves for so long and as soon as I seen it I grabbed it straight away.
Bobbi brown finishing powder, this is my FAVOURITR item at the moment out of my makeup collection. It really does finish your makeup in the perfect illuminating way.
So I want to start baking more and become better. My boyfriend loves a Victoria sponge so I want to perfect my cake baking skills. 
Love this new cream high neck dress from asos.com, perfect for a casual night out with friends.
The fluffy egg and the pearl massage bar are my newest purchases from lush, perfect for this time of year. 
I purchased this Kilner jar to store my lush products in as im always buying new ones and never know where to put them. Now I have a specific place for them all to go.
This transparent bag from zara is a newbie and love it, it's fits lots in and was such a great price and has a little bag inside to keep the more important things safe.

Last nights look

Last night I went out with my good friend Grace to a bar in the town where I live. It was a casual evening, a few drinks and a catch up so I decided to wrap up considering the weather wasn't the best, cold and rainy, the worse combo. 

I decided to dress weather appropriate for a change ;) and wore a long Asos fine knit jumper with a high neck and a Monki longline coat. I then teamed that with some Anne Klien pointy ankle boots which I LOVE, with the sharpest point and a sensible heel perfect for a casual evening. The bag I wore was my new Zara transparent bag which I love and was such a good price. All in all a simple look that kept me warm and perfect for catch up with a friend and a few wines :p.

Dark lips

So I've always loved dark lips on people especially on people with fuller lips, but as I am not blessed with that I purchased a Nars lip liner to slightly exaggerate my lips and then covered them with the Charlottle Tilbury Glastonberry shade. I love it, I've tried many shades of dark and different brands and this absolutely tops them all. The texture, the shape and obviously the colour is just perfect and I intend to wear it lots and lots, obsessed.

Top 5 products

Here are my top five products of the moment. I use them daily and absolutely love them. 

Benefit moonbeam is incredible for illuminating. When that light hits your cheek it really is like a moonbeam. 
Benefit They're real mascara does make your eyelashes look long and exstending without making them look clumpy and full of product. 
Eygptian Magic has been on my blog quite a few times and is great to just completely cover your skin and let it work its magic. 
Bobbi Brown shimmer brick in bronze has been a favourite of mine for years. Love the different shades all in one and the shimmer it creates. 
Tom Ford liquid eyeliner, I have so much positivity about this product. This creates the perfect wing. I have used liquid eyeliner for years and I can honestly say this tops them all.
