YesStyle Shopping Haul! ♡ Skin Care and Hair Care Products!

Hey hey hey! ♡

I recently made an order on YesStyle and I thought I would share with you what I bought from there. I love reading and watching haul/shopping videos and posts, as I love shopping and going online to see what are good products to buy. I have always wanted to try Asian beauty products as I always hear good things about them, especially skincare. So I thought I'd buy a few products and see what they were like! 


This is what I ended up buying! Many of them I have had recommendations by friends or Youtubers that I love watching! In particular Bubzbeauty as I think she is amazing and will believe pretty much anything she says :') I made my order on the 6th September and it arrived on 22nd September which I thought was really good as it was coming all the way from China! Especially as some of the products had to be ordered in, as they were not ready to ship from their main warehouse. I was a bit nervous about being charged customs but I wasn't, so I was super happy. 



I am absolutely obsessed with hair care products and trying to keep my hair healthy and looking nice. Essential is a Japanese hair care brand and I had read several reviews about how good the products are! Bubzbeauty swears by the Honey Damage Care Treatment Mask and I thought I'd give it a go! I haven't tried any of these products yet as I'm trying to use up some of my other ones but I am excited for them. The other two are the Treatment Milk and the Hair Serum.




Another Japanese product I wanted to try were these steam eye masks! They are the fresh rose scented Steam Eye Masks. I heard about these from watching a video by Sharla In Japan, in her recommendations video. They heat up to around 40 degrees Celsius. I tried one the other day before I went to bed and I found it really relaxing! The fresh rose scent was quite light and pleasant smelling so it wasn't over powering. The heat wasn't too much either and it was a really enjoyable experience. Overall I would totally recommend them if you wanted to treat yourself on a pampering day!




Another product I was desperate to try is the Annie's Way Hyaluronic Acid Mask. Once again a recommendation from Bubzbeauty's vlog videos as it sounded like such an interesting and unique product. I am still yet to try it though but when I have tried it a few times I may do a review on it for you guys! 







I have never tried a sheet mask before, so I wanted to try some. Sheet masks are an idea unique to Asian skincare, as I know here in England we are more accustom to mud masks. I bought the My Beauty Diary Whitening Masks and the Clear Turn Vitamin C Masks. So far I have only tried the Vitamin C masks and they were very moisturisng! They also left my skin feeling firm afterwards. There are 30 in the tub so they will last me quite a while. 




The final product I purchased was the Biore Foaming Facial Wash for acne prone skin. I have never tried a foam cleanser before and this one had good reviews on YesStyle's website so I thought I'd try it! I have nothing to say for it yet though as I haven't tried it. 




YesStyle also gave me some free samples to try which is really exciting, as free samples aren't a big thing in England. The spatula is to be used with the Annie's Way mask, to help put the mask on evenly. The other two are Annie's Way Cactus Extract Mask and the other one is buy Skin Food Broccoli Cleansing Foam. I look forward to trying them!


I hope this post wasn't too long! Let me know in the comments what you thought and if you want me to review any of these products in depth ^_^ Hope you all have a good week and enjoy your Halloween!

Meet the Blogger! ♡♡

Hello there! ♡

Nice to meet you :) My name is Charlotte and I am the one who shall be on posting here!  I have been meaning to make a new blog for ages but I always put it off (as procrastination is my best friend). I hope to make this blog as interesting as possible for you guys! 

This first post will just be a little bit about me and what I am like as a person. 


This is what I look like most of the time! I'm a very casual person in the what that I look but I am hoping to change that once I become more confident with fashion and beauty things. 


I am nineteen years old, born on the 11th November 1994 and I live in the middle of England in Birmingham. I have lived here all my life and despite it's many flaws I have grown to love it! I'm currently in my second year of university studying Psychology and it is great. Soon I will be learning Counselling and Criminal Psychology within my course and I am really looking forward to it. I've been with the love of my life for nearly 6 and a half years and he is an absolute sweetheart, he will no doubt be in a blog post at some point :) 


My absolute dream is to visit Japan and spend at least 2 weeks there. Ever since the tender age of 12 I have wanted to go and it would mean the world to me! I am hoping to go in 2016 or 2017. I am a huge enthusiast for the culture and all aspects of it; pop culture, fashion, music, art etc etc.


On this blog I am hoping to post about all sorts of different things; shopping hauls, beauty reviews, fashion segments, monthly favourites, recommendations and my progress in losing weight and so much more. If you have any requests for what you would like to see, please don't hesitate to comment or send me a message! 

Hope to speak soon! :) ♡♡♡
