O.O.T.D: Signature Look

Hey Guys, 
Happy Monday!
So I'm back with another outfit of the day.

I'm a huge fan of blouses, I think they dress up any outfit and look super classy 
I paired this stunning white blouse from Primark/Penneys with a royal blue statemant chain, which I'm totally in LOVE with and was only 5 euro.
This full outfit will be featured in my Penneys/Primark haul which will be live tomorrow on my youtube channel (MakeupBySaz) at 6pm.

Hello Sunshine!

Hey Guys, 
Hope your having a nice day.

So happy to be posting a fashion O.O.T.D today, I've wanted to get back into doing these posts for the longest time but just never had enough time in the day but now that I've cut my hours at work and made a schedule for my channel/blog I hope to be doing alot more of these posts as they are my favourite and of course some more products reviews.

We have been having a nice few days here in Ireland so of course I took advantage and pulled out my summer wardrobe and wiped the dust of these gorgeous paperbag shorts I bought in Miss Selfridge about 2 years ago.
The rest of the outfit is new and available in stores right now. I'm just loving Primark/penneys Jewellery at the moment, I must say the quality is fantastic for the price and this chain just screams Summer and Festivals to me <3


Top: Boohoo Click Here
Shorts Miss Selfridge 
Pumps/Chain/Earings: Primark/Penneys
Bag: MK (from spain)

If your looking for nice dewy summer skin to compliment this outfit this look is perfect!
Hope you enjoy!

First EVER Review | Kiss Cosmetics Lip Vinyl Launching 6th May



Hey Guys, 
Hope your all having a good week.
I'm really excited about today's post, Not only with I be introducing you to a brand new Cosmetic Brand but I was also chosen as one of the first to try and review this brand new product, So as you can imagine I'm feeling really special right about now haha! 

Kiss Cosmetics Launched their first EVER product last month which was a stunning range of lipsticks. Kiss have kept me in the loop over the last few months asking me and fellow vloggers/bloggers for advice on packaging and colours etc
It's always been a dream of mine to have my own makeup range so It's been very special to work so closely with a brand. 


Kiss (CLICK HERE) sent me this stunning Lip Vinyl to try out and all I can say is WOW not only is the packaging very simple and classy I completely fell in LOVE with the colour.
The pigmentation is incredible. I've never seen anything like it from a drugstore brand. the colour pay off reminds me of the OCC lip tars.... no need for lip liner or gloss, doesn't feel sticky and is hard to remove so it wont be going anywhere for a very long time!

Lip Vinyls will come in 10 different shades and will retail at £7... WHAT £7....... I NEEEEEED THEM ALL!!!!!!

Be sure to check out their website linked above ^
Can't wait to see what else is in store from KISS Cosmetics eeeek!!!!!




Love Always,

My Daily Routine & Must Have Products







First things first Skincare. I cant do anything else unless I've cleansed and Moisturised my skin I use
Origins Clean Energy Cleansing Oil. This is a lightweight cleansing oil for all skin types filled with Natural Organic Ingredients, doesn't clog up your pores and leaves your skin feeling nourished and fresh. 

To lock in that nourishment I lather my skin with Benefits Triple Performing Oil free Moisturizer and move onto my makeup.
My New favourite Foundation has to be Laura Mercier Silk creme foundation. It's a beautiful lightweight but good coverage matte foundation,leaves your skin looking flawless all day long. 

After working long hours I need a good full coverage concealer to hide those under eye circles and blemishes. I'm loving Amazing Cosmetics Concealer in Fair golden. It's yellow based so it literally covers every discolouration but doesn't feel too heavy or cakey.

As I'm as pale as a ghost I need to add some warmth to my skin so I love Benefits Hoola Bronzer as It's not to heavy or muddy on my skin and gives my face a natural lift and glow. My top tip with bronzer is to build it up slowly applying too much at once will just give you a muddyy/dirty appearance. 

Next I load on my favourite Blush Benefits Rockateur, 
It's a Rose gold blush with a lovely sheen to it but not glitter so it suits all skin tones and ages. 


The Balm Mary Lou Manizer is a beautiful gold highlighter, it's not too harsh or chunky and the pigmentation is out of this world, I highly recommend it. 


To make my eyes look more awake I love to apply a little bit of NYX Wonder pencil on my water line, It also doubles up as a concealer and Reverse Lip liner which is great for muting lips if you want to over draw them.

EOS lip balms are always in my makeup bag, I find them great for keeping my lips hydrated and they are full with antioxidants.

Urban Decay is one of my favourite cosmetic brands at the moment as they dont use any parabens/chemicals and are cruelty free! 
This All nighter setting spray is one of the best Ive tried and your makeup literally does not move for the day!!!! 

My favourite Lip combo has to be NYX Natural lipliner and The balm Ma bills be paid Nude Lipstick.... STUNNING!!! 

      

  Hope you enjoyed this post! 
        Love Always xXx

Rodial Review





Hey Guys,

Aw man It's so good to be back blogging again!!!!!  It was June 2014 since my last post which is just crazy right?! I think I mainly lost interest due to lack of time, I always saw my channel and my blog as two separate things rather than just treating it as one and felt I was stuck for time trying to get both done, So one of my new years resolutions was to give my blog a little makeover and get back into blogging regularly. I don't do many reviews on my channel so It might be a good idea to start doing my reviews here and also my old school outfit of the day posts....Gosh I missed those days. It may take me a while to get back into a regular blogging schedule but I'm feeling very positive about everything.

So First things first, A few weeks ago  I was lucky enough to receive a few products to try out from Rodial Cosmetics. I never heard of the brand before so I was a little skeptical but as soon as I checked out the website and online reviews, I was very eager to receive my package.



I got the Glamolash XXL mascara which I must say is so amazing for thickness,
the only thing I didn't like about the mascara was the size of the brush, If you have small eyes you might want to choose one of their other mascara's as the brush is quite wide so It can be tricky to get right into the root of the lash without poking yourself in the eye ha! But otherwise I really liked the packaging, the texture is really lightweight and the formula doesn't clump the lashes. My lashes looked so dark and thick compared to other mascaras.  




 I was most excited to try this Glamstick called Revenage. I choose the colour myself as I'm a big lover of pinks and peachy shades. The formula is buttery but lightweight, leaves your lips feeling nourished and doesn't dry up as it's enriched in vitamin E and cocoa butter.
The colour pay off was good, a little translucent as it's a balm but quite long lasting. I totally fell in LOVE with the packaging like WOW!!!! I think it's by far my favourite brand packaging yet.

OH MAMA!!!!! This was by far my favourite product of the bunch. It's the Eye sculpt cream shadow in Brown and it's the most perfect cream shadow Ive ever tried. It's extremely lightweight feels like a moose, It gives AMAZING colour pay off so a little goes a long way. It said on the website it doesn't move once its on the skin and boy they weren't lying. The smokey eye pencil I received aswell (here) was so creamy and melted beautifully, so both combined create the perfect smokey eye and I'll leave the link to my Smokey eye Tutorial below.

                                                                Watch my video here:

 And lastly and unfortunately my least favourite was the Stemcell Super-food day cream.
I really liked the lightweight texture of this moisturiser and it gives the skin a nice radiant glow, however I didn't feel it left my skin nourished, My skin felt quite tight after it and that may be because I don't have the full stemcell range.

The moisturiser wasn't in anyway bad however for the price, the ingredients weren't the best I've seen so I wouldn't be rushing out to buy another. But that's not to say that this product isn't good, I just felt It didn't work on my skin, Skincare is always tough to review because what works for me may not work for you and likewise.

 And that about wraps up this blog post. I really hope you enjoy this review. Even tho these products were sent to me, all opinions are 100% my own. Be sure to check out Rodial's Social Pages
