Hi Guys,

In today's video, I tested out 2 full coverage concealers which have exactly the same promises - one is a brand new product, and the other is a cult classic and holy grail product of mine.

In this video, I pitted the cult Mac Pro Longwear Concealer against the new EX1 Fluide Delete Concealer. I had never tested out the EX1 concealer before, so this was my complete first impression.

I have loved the Mac concealer for years, and have been constantly repurchasing it, as it's medium-full coverage, doesn't look caked and looks very natural on the skin. It stays put all day, and I have never had an occasion where it's budged from anywhere I have placed it. This concealer paired with the Estee Lauder Double Wear are the perfect combination for bulletproof and waterproof makeup. You will look the same from when you first apply it, until after 20 hours of wear! It is literally perfection!

The EX1 Fluide Delete Concealer is a new product which they've just launched, and it's had so much buzz in the celebrity world, as well as in magazines and on instagram. I deliberately made sure to not see any reviews of this concealer, as I didn't want it to influence my first impression, as I was completely unaware how it would blend or cover. I've been a big fan of EX1 for a while now, so I was very excited to see that they had just released a brand new product. The fact that it promises it to be full coverage without looking cakey, was something that really drew me to it. Also, the fact that Margot Robbie is a huge fan, sort of swayed me to buy it as well! 😉

As I wanted to make sure that both shade were the same shade or incredibly similar, I wasn't too sure which shade I needed to buy. The shade names are the same as the foundation, so it's easy to find which shade you would be if you were spot concealing, and they recommend going a shade lighter to highlight. I originally purchased the shades 4.0 and 3.0, as I'm usually 4.0 or 5.0 in the foundation. After swatching these on my arm next to the bottle of my MAC Concealer, I knew that they were way too dark to match, so went ahead and purchased 2.0 in the hopes that it wasn't going to be too light.
And, as it turned out, 2.0 was the perfect shade!



Both concealers have a warm undertone, so I thought that they would practically be the same shade. I was wrong because EX1 are for olive skin tones, and there's a bit of a difference in the undertones from warm and olive - sometimes warm, can come across as orange or red, and olives are strictly brown-yellow.

The shades that I used in this video are NC20 (MAC) and 2.0 (EX1) and they were a great match! Even though they're incredibly close in shade, the undertone of the Mac concealer is pretty pink, and I've always thought of it as quite yellow/neutral.

To see my first impression and my full comparison between both concealers, check out the video above.

Hi Guys,

So if you've been subscribed to me for a while, you will know that I tend to upload once a week, and this has been my schedule for the past couple of years - I would like to be able to upload more than once, but I have a full-time job, so it's pretty hard just trying to put in place a filming schedule!

I had been away from youtube for around 3-4 weeks, which is very unlike me, but I had a few things happen to me, which prevented me from filming and uploading.

A couple of years ago, I had a few problems happen all in one go, which prevented me from uploading for around a month, and unless it's something I can't work around, I'll be uploading on schedule as usual. With this one, it was my laptop breaking, my camera breaking, and just everything going wrong! (I talk about this experience again in the video, just incase you're a newer subscriber).

This time, I ended up have 3 things happen to me all within the space of around 1-2 weeks, and it was absolute hell!

In the video above, I go into detail about 2 of the 3 reasons, as it would explain a lot on why I've been away for so long.

I'm so sorry to all of you who were expecting my usual videos, but I'm so thankful to each an every one of you who have stayed with me throughout this.

Enjoy,
Chloe xoxo

Hi Guys,

On this day, I went shopping around town with my friends Amy and Rhi.

I was determined that I wasn't going to buy anything, but low and behold, they are such bad influences that I ended up caving in and bought some clothes!

I tried on this oversized denim jacket and cropped top in H&M and I fell in love! Because I have bigger shoulders, I always through that oversized items would make them appear much larger, and just thought that I couldn't get away with them.

After showing them this outfit, they both loved it, and it made me realise that I actually can pull off this jacket - even though my 16 year old sister has one, so I've always felt too old to wear one, even though I'm only 25.

I'm amazed that this whole outfit goes together - I think I knew deep down inside that I'd try on something that I'd need to go with jeans and black boots. Haha

As always, all details are below. The time I've also included where my earrings and bracelets are from, as I know that some of my followers ask.

Hi Guys,

On this day, it was our last morning in Florida, as we were flying home in the evening, so we decided to pop to the beach.

We went to the beach in the evening, just before sunset, and it was beautiful and warm. The beach we visited was the Spanish River Beach and it was so beautiful!
The sand was white and the sea was clear, and it was the perfect day to pick shells from the sea - it was just a stunning morning!

For this day, I just popped on a little bit of waterproof foundation and waterproof mascara, as I wanted to make sure that nothing ran, as we were travelling home that evening. The mascara is a new favourite of mine, and it literally doesn't budge for anything! It's the Covergirl The Super Sizer Waterproof mascara, and I even struggle taking it off with makeup remover. This is you best bet if you think you might get caught in water/rain, and its only $6!

The outfit is very simple, affordable, and something that will keep me cool in the heat - it was 28 degrees by 9am!

Overall this day was perfect (other than the travel back home which was 9 hours on a plane!), and the holiday and weather were amazing!

To find out where everything's from, I've listed ti below for you.

Hi guys,

I haven’t done any blogs on my favourite handbag essentials before, but as I’ve been in holiday and have found some that I LOVE and have been using for a long time, I thought that I’d share them with you.

These items have been my go-to items, and are amazing if you like to pack lightly, or have a very small bag, where you don’t wish to overflow with products!

This handbag has been my go-to bag ever since I bought it, because it’s jusy so gravel friendly, and even though it’s small, it can still fit w lot of stuff.

I’m going to go through each product, and explain why I love it, and what I use it for.




Michael Kors Jet Set Crossbody in Oyster
I bought this bag just before Christmas, as I had been living the Gucci Soho Disco Bag, but I didn’t think it was worth nearly £800. I saw this in the store and thought that it looked incredibly similar, only more beautiful!
I purchased my bag in the shade Oyster, as I wanted something that I could use for all seasons, plus it’s pink, which is my favourite colour!
The bag is structured, so it always keeps its shape, no matter how many items your stuff in there, and the Saffiano Leather is very thick and durable, so you don’t need to worry about which type of weather you have it out in. I’ve had it in rain or sunshine, and it’s wayerproof and has held up amazingly through both, and still looks exactly the same since I bought it, and I’ve used it ALOT!
The only negative, is that because this bag is such a light colour, I do tend to get colour transfer with a pair of my jeans, but you can sort that out with just an eraser and you should be fine!
Even though this bag is pretty small, I can still fit a lot in here. I used it for my trip to London at Christmas, and it’s the perfect dimensions for my tablet, so I managed to a lot that in one of the pockets!
It’s truly is an amazing bag, and it’s probably one of my best purchases I’ve made.

Canon SX600HS Camera
I have had this camera for the past 3 years, and I bought it specifically for when I travel and for vlogging. Before this, I used to take my giant Canon 500D to the theme parks, and even though it has amazing camera quality, it was just way too big to fit anywhere, and it would kill my arm after a couple of minutes.
I bought this from Costco in a set with a gorilla pod, and I think it was around £100, which was incredible as they had only just bought out this camera when I purchased it.
The camera and video quality is incredible, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who travels a lot, or if you’re a beginner in vlogging.
When I upgrade to a newer camera, which won’t be until this one is completely dead, I’d go for another canon, but one which has a flip screen on it. That would make it so much easier for when I have the camera looking at myself, and I can see if the flipped viewfinder.

Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream Lip Protectant
The is the newest product that I’ve purchased out of the Essentials, and I’m already blown away by it.
If you haven’t heard of the Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Range, where have you been? The do so many products in the line - like hand protectant, face lotions, face sprays, and lip balms, etc. - and I’ve only heard positive reviews about everything.
I’ve been after the lip protectant and the balm for years, but always thought that it was quite expensive. Then I saw this in a set with other travel products, and I had to pick it up.
I’ve tried lip balms in the past the seem as though they don’t really do a lot, and my lips always seem to feel more dry after using them. But with this one, my lips are so smooth, supple, and the smell is beautiful! It had a very slight perfume smell, which isn’t overpowering, and my lips haven’t felt so smooth since last summer.
I love this product, and I know that I’ll repurchase it once it runs out!


Bath & Bodyworks ‘Pretty As Peach’ Hand Sanitiser
If you have been watching my YouTube channel for a while, you will know that I’m obsessed with fruit smelling hand sanitizers. The Pretty As Peach hand gel smells AMAZING!
I’m one of those people who is a bit of a germaphobe when I’m out and about, or when I’m at work. I never used to like the chemical smell of the anti-bacterial hand gels when I was younger, and when I found out that they sell them with every scent you can imagine, I screamed a little!
I buy my hand gels from the Bath and Bodyworks Outlet in Florida every year I visit - where they’re 5 for $6, so naturally I buy 20!
If you’re not from the US, or don’t want to pay a bomb in shipping, then you can buy a Strawberry and Raspberry hand gel from Superdrug, which also smells AMAZING!
These little gels are great for travel, or for putting in your handbag, because they’re so small, but you get a lot of product in there.
I love them, I never leave the house without it, and I don’t know what I’m going to do when I run out!

Louis Vuitton Key Pouch in Monogram
I purchased this Key Pouch as a present to myself, for my 24th Birthday last January. I used to use it a lot when I first bought it, but I’ve been drifting apart from it, ever since I bought my Zippy Multicartes.
I started using this again, for my trip to Florida, in February, and I’m so happy that I took it, because I used it EVERY DAY!
This piece is pretty versatile, as you can use it as a mini purse, and you can use it to keep some necessities in. I used it as both.
When I ventured to the theme parks, or somewhere where I didn’t want to take a lot of cash to, I used it as a mini purse. You can actually fit quite a lot in there. At the same time, I also used it for some necessities, things that you might need in case of an emergency. I also used it to keep plasters, hair ties, hair bobbles, hair grips, and a lip balm/ lipgloss.
This thing may be tiny, but it can hold a lot!
Also, as it was my very first luxury purchase, it will always hold a special place in my heart.

Victoria’s Secret Rollerball Fragrance in Bombshell and Bombshell Paris 
For the past couple of years, I have been obsessed with Victoria’s Secret body mists and perfumes. When they had a giant sale in my local store, I decided to go ahead and pick up one of these roller balls - it was £3, so even if I didn’t like one of the scents, I haven’t really lost out.
I’ve really been liking the ‘Bombshell’ fragrance for a while, but have always thought that the full sized ones are quite expensive, and it usually takes me ages to get through them.
I’ve bought a couple of roller balls last year, and I love how travel friendly they are, and how they fit in all of my bags. I’ve been trying to get into being a minimalist with my bags and everything I take out with me, so having one of these is a great choice!
I love the fact that there are 2 fragrances, so you can change them up, depending on what your mood is, or which you want to use for each day.
These roller balls are long lasting, and smell beautiful!

Louis Vuitton Zippy Multicartes in Fuchsia
This piece is my newest purchase from Louis Vuitton, and this was a little treat to myself, for passing my Nail Technician Course...so it was more of a 'well done' piece.
I've been after this piece for quite a while, and saw a video from Shea Whitney, about what she uses it for, and how much she loves it, so knew that it was something on my radar. As I had purchased my Michael Kors Crossbody, I felt as though my small Michael Kors use was just too big, and it took quite a lot of work to get my cards out to pay, as the card sections were very slim.
Ever since I bought this new purse, I have been using it a loving it! Even though its 1/3rd of the sir of a normal sized purse, you can fit A LOT of stuff in here. In fact, I managed to take everything out of 2 of my purses, and squeeze them into this one with no problem!
In this little gem, I can fit 10 cards, train tickets, vouchers/gift cards, cash (coins and notes), and I STILL have room. It fits in every bag, and I can pop it into one of the little sections in my Original Club Organiser. The bonus with this, is that it will never take up too much room.
The colour is beautiful - Monogram canvas with fuchsia leather zip pull and lining. It's just a stunning piece.
If you're looking to minimise your bag, or if you just want something that you can take to the shops, this is the perfect piece of you. I don't think that I'll ever go to a full size purse again!

So, that's my newest handbag essentials, and my reasons behind why I love them so much!

If you have/use these items too, let me know if you love them as much as I do. Also, if you have any recommendations, just let me know too!

Thanks for reading,
Chloe xoxo
