PEACHY FOX LONDON | Natural Marine Collagen Eye Gel Review

If follow me on Instagram (@MichelleCheungg) or Snapchat you may have seen me constantly complaining about my darks circles in the morning. They are pretty pretty bad, to the point they even peak through heavy makeup. Colour correcting them, don't help either. So I was very ecstatic to try out the Peachy Fox London Marine Collagen Eye Gel! Like is this the cure to the bane of my existence? *Dark circles, i'm just being dramatic but they seriously are really bad!

► Packaging:

Simple and clean packaging. The product comes in a hygienic airless pump like the rest of their products. I wouldn't say it's travel friendly as many other eye gel/cream products tend to come in smaller tubes.

► Product:

The consistency is a thick gel that is cooling and not tacky, the cooling sensation is lovely for waking up my tired eyes in the morning and just a nice feeling for using it in summer. Cool it in the fridge before using it for a more intense cooling and reduce puffiness further.

► Results:

Before applying the eye gel and the results after 15 minutes. My dark circles are visibility less noticeable! At first I wasn't expecting much results due to having dark circles for such a long time. The results are almost instant and reduce dark circles the more you use it. This is my favourite Peachy Fox product I have tried and tested so far. It's my current holy grail eye gel product too and the best one i've tried so far in the 20 years of my life.

► Overall:

I am constantly working so I lack the much needed sleep to keep my dark circles at bay. This eye gel is ever so lush! Great consistency and lovely cooling sensation for waking tired eyes. I've noticed my dark circles have reduced slightly and it really helped with reducing the puffiness as well. I can't comment on if I helps with reducing wrinkles or not, as I don't have any. Looking forward to using this more to get further results!

PEACHY FOX LONDON | Skin Calming Rosehip & Chamomile Cream Review

Peachy Fox London is a brand new natural and conscious cruelty free skincare brand based in London, UK. They sent me a few of their products to test out and I ended up really loving their products, so I decided to share it with you guys~ First up, we have their Skin Calming Rosehip & Chamomile Cream Moisturiser.

► Packaging:

The packaging is simple and sleek, I like that it's clean and not overloaded with information. The product comes in a airless pump; I love that it's hygienic however when you first get the product you will need to press the pump quite a bit to vacuum the moisturiser out. With their smaller products you don't need to press the pump as much. But with their larger products like this one, you definitely will be pumping air for a minute. Once the product is out, everything is gucci and good to go!

► Product:

It has a creamy consistency that is surprisingly lightweight and skinks into the skin nicely. I use 2 to 3 pumps for my full face. The moisturiser has a gentle cucumber scent, I love using this moisturiser especially at night because the scent is so calming, it eases you into sleep.

► Results:

The product works so well, that even after 10 minutes as you can see in the photos above that my face is slightly less red and calmer. After using this for 2/3 weeks I have noticed that my skin is much softer than it has been in a while!

► Overall:

I have combination skin and quite a bit of redness on my face; this moisturiser as been an absolute bless. It not only reduces redness but it also does a brilliant job at smoothing and calming the skin. On top of the amazing results, Peachy London is natural and cruelty free, so happy skin and happy animals~ This is going to be a staple in my skincare collection now. I'm buzzing to see what product they will launch in the future. :)

LUSH | Guardian Of The Forest Bath Bomb Review

Summer + finishing work = bath bomb time! As always, when in London you need to pick up some kitchen exclusives from the Lush Oxford Store. I normally go for fruity and tropical scents in the summer but thought I would switch it up to something completely different. Carry on reading to see this beauty release it's vivid colours and to know all the deats about it!

► Info:

Guardian of the Forest is suppose to be a calming and mystical bath bomb. For the main ingredients, it contains Rosewood Oil that is full of fragrance, is uplifting and has antiseptic properties. Oakmoss Absolute for a relaxing mossy scent. Lime Oil to uplift and protect your skin. Lastly, Cypress oil to further relax you and provide more antiseptic benefits.

► Performance:

The bath bomb fizzle immediately on touch with water and transforms the water into a breathe taking lagoon with it's gorgeous vivid forest green colour. As you can see in the photos above, it creates intricate green and yellow patterns when fizzing. It was pretty entertaining to watch. It also has cute shimmer that swirl around you, a nice touch to the mystical guardian vibes.The shimmer didn't sink to the bottom of the bath tub like their Frozen Ballistic Bath Bomb, thank god! No extra rinsing needed.

Before using it, I didn't really know what to except for the scent but I ended up absolutely loving it more than I anticipated. The scent was a fresh forest mossy scent, very earthy almost like when you're taking a nice walk in nature. The scent was quite subtle and not overpowering, which is perfect!

► Overall:

My skin felt hydrated and softer after using it. The scent is very unique and fresh, great for those that are after a different surprise. The scent does linger but it's very subtle. The gorgeous green and fresh scent created a magical and calming atmosphere, that carried my mind away into a fantasy land. The bath bomb experience would of been better if I was reading a book while relaxing in it. I would definitely purchase this again.

BLACK DIVISION / Hong Kong Streetwear Outfit

I am so in love with the street style and Hype Bae fashion! I've always want to wear and support streetwear but literally everyone else around is wearing the same thing so I kind of stayed away from it. However, I couldn't help myself when I saw this sweater whilst shopping in Hong Kong - Ya Ma Tei and instantly purchased it without thinking, I was heart emoji face all over it! It's my go to sweater, the quality is great and makes you look stylish + on trend without much effort.  I'm not sure if the brand of sweater is Black Division or if it's just the sweater print, but if you go Ya Ma Tei, they have so many street style shops. Everything from Stussy and Off White to brands you have seen before like the one i'm wearing~ ^.<

BURGER AND LOBSTER, Manchester Review

Last month I visited Manchester for the Lost in Time - Go HARDWELL or Home concert(/rave or whatever you prefer to call it ^.<), literally one of the best and most memorable nights of my life. I need to relive that experience and see my bae Hardwell again. Okay, moving on~ the next morning I was craving some good food and my best friend Claudia suggested going Burger & Lobster. I haven't been Burger & Lobster since they first opened in London back in 2011/2012, so thought it was a good suggestion - lets go!

► Drink:

Their menu has expanded since it first opened, I remember when it used to be 4 items only. They now have few more variations of burgers and others. I know, i'm boring (or you could say healthy ^.<) for ordering water but I could do with no more wine/alcohol after a night out. I like that they have their logo on a bottle, very aesthetic.

► Food:

Time for good part! If you read my blog, you will know that I am indecisive af. So I went for the Burger and Lobster Combo, where you get a 1.25lb lobster with a 6oz burger. It comes with a portion of chips, side of salad and some lush garlic butter sauce. In my case, I get 3 salads because my friends don't like their greens. Yasss more food for Michelle~ We were given bid

The lobster was grilled really nicely to perfection, it maintained the softness of the meat and juiciness. Not overcooked or underdone. It does come with a tool to help you get the meat out easier but it's just so much more enjoyable to dig in with your fingers. The garlic butter sauce it comes with taste like heaven! Honestly, its probably the best garlic butter sauce i've tried to date. It very creamy and blasting with flavour. Complements the lobster really well. Lastly, the salad was fresh and crunchy. It was good however I do feel they could of use a better salad dressing than a drizzle of vinegar.

Overall, a very delightful meal and a lovely treat when you want to splurge a little bit more on food. The atmosphere at the Manchester branch was quieter and calming, where as the London branches were very busy, lively and full of energy.
