Earlier this year I launched something that I’m very proud of – a nice little Facebook community for my fellow beauty junkies – the goal of this group was to bring together others who are keen beauty consumers who are happy to chat everything from makeup to skincare to slightly obsessive levels. As part of the idea behind the group I wanted to be able to share some of the ‘perks’ of being a beauty blogger. I am fortunate to be sent a lot of product to test and wanted to be able to offer ones that perhaps aren’t quite right for me, or I just know I don’t have capacity to test out to the group.

The first of which I sent to the lovely Charlotte who has shared her review below for you all. Thank you Charlotte for doing such a fantastic job of testing these products out (I forwarded over a delivery I had from Boots No7 featuring their new mascara alongside a selection of their other lash and eye products). Have a read on to see what Charlotte thought.
This mascara definitely does what it says on the label- my lashes were visibly longer, darker and thicker, even with just one coat. It recommends to apply 3 coats but I’ve found that two were enough, very impressed! A problem I always have with mascara is that by the end of the day I have a sort of black smudge under my eyes where it’s transferred but not with this one- It stayed on all day looking as fab throughout- no flaking or black smudge!!
A couple of things that I did find however were that my lashes did start to get a little bunchy at the end of the second coat so anymore coats (even though I didn’t need any) I think would have started to look a bit spidery. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the wand shape as it thins in the middle (but that could just be my personal preference as I’m picky with wands!). Overall though, I loved it! It made a huge difference to my lashes and I’d definitely get it again. (Photos attached are before & after two coats and I’ve attached a shirt video of the lashes with the two coats).
Fast absorbing and a really nice texture! It’s still early days using this however it’s now a staple part of my facial regime as the skin around my eyes is visibly more moisturised and softer.
This is the first time that I’ve used a lash serum and I’ve been using this on both my lashes and my brows. It’s only been a couple of weeks (The product recommends using every night for at least eight weeks), however I have noticed that the inside of each brow, where the hair was really thin, is starting to look fuller … looking forward to seeing if there’s any change with my lashes!
At first, I wasn’t keen on the texture of this, however I now love it! You only need a small amount on a pad and mascara really does come off so easily. No scrubbing needed! One of the best eye make-up removers I’ve tried!
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your review Charlotte! I can definitely vouch for the No7 Radiant Results Eye Make-up remover – works an absolute treat (as long as you don’t use on lash extensions as they won’t last as well)!
