A Lidl Bit Of Beauty Goes A Long Way



If you were following my snapchat during the week, maryroche2, you would have seen that on Thursday 23rd I attended the launch of Lidl's Cien Makeup and Professional Hair Care range in the very fabulous surroundings of Dylan Bradshaw's .






The range includes a number of essentials, including a multitasking BB Cream. It has an SPF 15 and comes in two shades. The range also features several shades of lipstick, lip gloss, nail varnish and mascara.  The hair care range has a high end brand look to it and it smells so good, the collection offers shampoo, conditioner, hair mask and a heat protection spray.   




The price is, as would you expect coming from Lidl, extremely affordable. On first impressions, the products I was most drawn to  where, the  lipsticks and after swatching them, I was impressed by their strong pigment. The lips gloss again has a good pigment to them and a nice shine when on the lips, lastly the BB Cream. I had used the BB Cream that was in Lidl before however I find this one to be of a thicker consistency compared to the previous range. The Nude Brown lipstick could be a dupe for MAC Velvet Teddy.

The Lipstick and gloss come in 6 shades including frozen ice, sugar plum and bold bordeaux.






This range is not just seasonal, it is here to stay. So you can pick up the whole collection over time if you want. I think this range is also a great option for teenagers that are at the experimenting stage with makeup as it will not break the bank. Prices range from €1.89 to €2.99. The branding of the new collection is fresh and sleek and  it has great options for affordable day wear.  


Nail Varnish comes in 6 shades



Eyeshadow comes in 4 shades



Mascara in Waterproof & Volume 
The Cien Collection will be hitting stores on the 30th of  June so keep an eye out.

Kiehl's Apothecary Preparations Review

Image from Kiehl's website Hello all, this post is dedicated to Kiehl's Apothecary Preparations. What is that I hear you ask? Apothecary preparations is a high level of Personalized skincare. It addresses the following skincare concerns: WRINKLE REDUCTION TEXTURE REFINING VISIBLE REDNESS NEUTRALIZING PORE MINIMIZING BRIGHTENING I find the older I get (mid-thirties ouch) the more focused I am on my skin, I have invested in my skincare more than I used to, by adding in some high-end products. I believe in paying for a good serum. Although this product was kindly sent to me to try out, all views expressed are my own. In terms of using Kiehl's, this is my first time to use the brand and I was really intrigued to see what it was like on the skin. Kiehls as a brand has been active since 1851 so I think it's safe to say that they know what they are doing and they know what works. This range takes the brand back to its roots of creating persona...

Boyne Hill House Estate Your Exclusive Wedding Venue

Hello all, I am back with my Wedding Venue Feature. I will be putting the spotlight on different venues that I know you are going to love. The last feature I did went down really well so I decided to do it again, sure any excuse to go visit venues and I am gone. Recently I visited   Boyne Hill House Estate this exclusive wedding venue has been on my radar for a while, so I was very excited to go visit it. Boyne Hill Hosue is located in the picturesque surroundings of Co.Meath, it dates back to the 18th Century so you can just imagine the charm and history that it beholds. The drive up to the Estate is very beautiful and tranquil. I couldn't help but picture how a couple would feel making their way up to the Estate. If I had all the good feelings about it I know a lot of newly engaged couples will. When you drive up the roadway to the Estate, the historic house peaks out from the woodlands. I will a...
