Physicians Formula event in Lloyd's Pharmacy

Last week I attended a Physicians Formula makeup demo event to celebrate them being launched into Lloyd's Pharmacy in the Ashleaf Shopping Centre.
Physician Formula are an American Cosmetics Brand who are amazing. I've used a few of the products prior to the event and still do such as a highlighter and blush and both come in a compact type of packaging with a mirror or brush built into the really pretty packaging.
The packaging is a complete eye turner and if you are anything like me who is drawn to packaging alone you will love the range. The quality, durability and pricing is both brilliant and reasonable which is also a winner in my opinion!!

So at the event the lovely Emma Farrell who owns efcreativestudios.com demo'd a makeup look using the Physicians Formula brand on the fab Holly Carpenter 
Emma went into great detail and talked everyone through the look really well. The do's and don'ts in applying makeup along with answering some great questions along the way.

The brand itself is cruelty free and suitable for all skin types especially sensitive skin....yep I said it even sensitive skin and speaking from and super super sensitive person it does not irritate my skin in anyway!!

 

Here is the finished look on Holly.... How fab is her makeup :)

 

From one Makeup Artist to another Emma done a fab job on the makeup look on Holly. She went for a soft smokey eye that is suitable for everyone because its not too heavy on the eyes and soft contouring.

For the eyes Emma used these amazing glitter cream shadows which can be used a base to hold the shadow on top in place and intensify the colour also.

These pots come in a set of three and €16.90 the shimmer pigment in them are amazing!!

 

The event itself was great I really enjoyed the evening and all the staff at Lloyd's couldn't be anymore helpful and super friendly.

There was a table set up for refreshments and nibbles which was so pretty and I couldn't resist helping myself to a drink from Sprout & Co. A cake pop and cookies

They didn't last long when I got home :)

 

Physicians Formula kindly gifted everyone with a goody bag with lots of their products which was too kind of them

Happy Booster Bronzer €15.90

Shimmer Strips Eyeshadow & Bronzer €16.90

Smokey Shadow Shimmer Strips €15.90

Shimmer Strips & Liner €15.90

Sexy Booster Lip Gloss €13.90

 

All reviews on these products will be up soon but in the mean time to see some looks using these products and some of my other Physicians Formula products head over to my Snapchat: lipstickglitz to see daily looks and tips and tricks using these products.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read all about how I got on at such a lovely event and evening with great company. Make sure you pop into Llyod's Pharmacy as they are nationwide and stock lots more beauty products, skincare, tanning along with general pharmacy products. They do have some amazing pre made hampers in stock for Christmas which are perfect for gifts for every age group. Also thank you to Emily from the Publicity Loft for inviting me and being so lovely on the night :)

The Rise Pharmacy

Hey everyone!!

So last week I popped out to The Rise Pharmacy in Unit 1 Woodpark, The Rise, Glasnevin, Dublin.
I had been chatting previously to the lovely Jennifer who works there and she invited me out to see the place.

The pharmacy itself is there 3 years already and stock many many products which I will show you, but firstly I just want to tell you about how I got... The pharmacy itself its spotless, lovely and clean and everyone is really friendly. Customers popped in while I was there and the staff couldn't do enough for them which I loved because there is nothing worse than feeling uncomfortable and rushed out of a shop.
Jennifer herself was really friendly, helpful and very bubbly person so we chatted for ages without even realising the time going bye. I would highly recommend anyone in the area either working, living near to pop in a have a look around. Wait until you see what they have in the store and what else is due to come soon to the pharmacy.....

Now as we all love out beauty products and essentials I took a few pictures to show you what they sell....

As you all know how much I love Sleek I was delighted to see they have Sleek in stock.. Blush, Highlight and contour palettes, and Brow kits.

SoSu is also available in store for all you SOSU fans out there... I can't wait to see

what shades The Rise will have in stock for Autumn/Winter. 

 for

Now I have to share with you the amount of tanning products they stock... Cocoa Brown, Dove, Sally Hansen and Rimell. Along with these brands they also stock tanning mitts, exfoiliators etc.

 

Along with all the general pharmacy items that pharmacy's have like hair colour, toiletries for men and women, femaine hygiene, shampoo and conditioner, shower gel, razors for men and women. The Rise had a nice selection of Skincare which I loved. Not many pharmacy's stock many skin care ranges.

As you can see there a great selection from La Roche Posay, Elave, Uriage, Aveeno, E45, Clarins, Nivea, Simple, Garnier plus many more.

While I was there the lovely Jennifer gifted me with this lovely hamper of La Roche Posay products to try which I will have a review up soon about.

 

 

 Now I'm not sure if many of you have heard about the Green Angel range before but The Rise stock it and I have to say its absolutely fab. Its like a holistic range of creams, exfoilators which I was also giving two samples to try... I will let you all know soon about them. The smell alone from the range was lovely, they smell like a range that would be in a luxury spa :)

 

 

Among the many ranges and products and items they also have this lovely Celtic Candles selection and my God the smells of them where just fab!! These will defiantly be added to my Christmas list.. Ideal for all candle lovers out there too!!

 

While I was in the store chatting to everyone Jennifer also told me they make hampers up for people in store which is a great idea for Christmas presents, birthdays and gifts. You can pick out your own items and have them made into a hamper or pick from some of the already made up in store ones.

 

 

 

 

 

I don't think there is anything in The Rise Pharmacy that you wouldn't want to pick up or add to your Christmas list, so I would suggest everyone pop in and take a look to see what they have. There was so much items and products to chose from, I couldn't put all of them up or this post would be flooded with pictures :)

They will also be getting in the new Flormar makeup range which is amazing and affordable so when its in store I will let everyone know.

 

The pharmacy are also doing a Christmas savings club so pop in and get some information about it.. its  great way to start saving for gifts for Christmas!!

 

If you do pop in make sure you say you heard about it from Lipstick, Glitter and Me :)

Conefrey's Pharmacy

Hi everyone!!
So I popped into Conefrey's Pharmacy recently in Pearse Street, Dublin 1 and I took a couple of pictures to let everyone see how lovely their pharmacy is!!

Firstly I'm going to tell you about what Conefreys stock in their Pharmacy..

Conefrey's stock a wide range of items and products in their store.
Their skincare range varies which is great because not all pharmacys have a wide range available..
*Uriage
*Ziaja
*Aveeno
*E45
*Eucerin
*Cetaphil
Are all of the ranges Conefrey's stock plus a couple of other ranges.

When it comes to makeup they have made sure to stock a mineral range along with two budget friendly ranges which I love!!
Anneco is mineral makeup which is great for sensitive skin and suits all other skin types. With it being a mineral powder product you can build the products up to achieve a medium to full coverage. Brush sets are also stocked in the pharmacy. With it being a mineral range most of the time they are higher in price range but with Anneco this isn the case :)
The two budget friendly makeup ranges are Wet n Wild and Kubiss which as you all know I'm a big fan of Wet n Wild :)

Conefreys are like most pharmacys when it comes to supplements where they have every supplement you will ever need. The great thing about Conefreys that's different from other pharmacy's and makes them unique..... They stock their own range of supplements.
These are all in the supplement collage below.
Now wait until I tell you about these... I was recently gifted some hair, skin and nails supplement from the lovely Tomas which I have wrote a blog post on recently and you can see just how amazing these are.
The Hair, skin and nail supplementsbare now available in a larger 60 tablet bottle for €13.99. So make sure you get in and pick some up... They are something every girl/woman should be taking right now!! These supplements only have the ingredients needed in each type of supplement which I find brilliant as their are a lot of people out there who can only have certain ingredient, vitamins and minerals. They get a massive thumbs up from me ������

Now for all the parents out their with small babies and toddlers Uriage baby range is available also... This to me is great many parents out there struggle to find a range of skincare to treat their little bundles of joys skin, from nappy rash to eczema Uriage has a cream suitable for it  so pop in and pick it up.

I think I would need hours to tell you what Conefreys stock so I've lots of pictures below for everyone to see along with all the basics like most pharmacys stock... One thing that stuck out to me when I was in that day was the weighing machine that also can tell you you're bmi, blood pressure and lots of other little things we should all be checking. These machines are rare to see in pharmacys now! Boots used to have them and now not so sure if their still there anymore. They are great if your on you're own little weight loss journey and want to keep track of how your doing.

Personally I think you need to pop into the pharmacy itself to see it for yourself and I've no doubt in my mind that what your looking for will be in store.

Now that I've told you about what is stocked in Conefreys pharmacy I want to tell you all about the lovely staff and atmosphere when I was in with them.
Everyone of the staff where so friendly and couldn't have helped me anymore than they could providing me with information on all the products and ranges. Tomas was there on the day also who was very friendly and such a lovely man to talk to. Tomas kindly sponsored a hamper of over €150 on Cetaphil skincare and lots of Hair, skin and nail supplements to my Ultimate Girls Day Out recently.. Which was an extremely kind gesture!! 
What stood out the most was when anyone popped in to fill prescriptions or just to pick up some items, print photos everyone of the staff knew every customer by name and greeted them as they entered and said goodbye when they left... A service like that is hard to come by nowadays!! Such a friendly, polite and genuine bunch of staff and you could tell really enjoyed their job and what they could to for customers... I can see why they are in business for so long!! :)

You can take a look at their facebook page here.. www.facebook.com/CONEFREYSPHARMACY 

I will definitely be popping back into Conefreys pharmacy again to stock up on more items and to chat with the friendly staff :)
