In Love With Fashion Sale Picks I gave up on BeautySets for a while as I just found the whole process a bit clunky, but when I discovered you could now create fashion sets I thought the latest ILWF blogger challenge was the ideal time to give it another try. The best improvement to BeautySets … Continue reading
I’m a huge fan of cream blushes so as soon as I heard Bourjois were launching a range of cream blushers I just had to find out more. It’s surprising that after almost 150 years Bourjois haven’t already created a cream blush, but hey, better late than never! The range currently comes in four colours … Continue reading
Last month was crazy busy and as such my blogging took a bit of a battering. Thankfully things seem to have calmed down a bit now and the only things standing in the way of me and blogging is my newly formed keep fit routine and my addiction to Ni No Kuni (36 hours in … Continue reading
So I thought it was about time I shared with you a few bits and pieces I got from Laura Mercier recently. The baked eye shadow and the kohl eye pencil were Christmas presents from Mike, which was great as I very nearly bought them whilst I was in San Francisco before Christmas. And the … Continue reading
I’m loving Rimmel Apocalips lip lacquer right now. So much so that I just couldn’t help myself from stocking up on another three colours in the Boots 3 for 2 offer. Unfortunately Nude Eclipse was still out of stock in the three Boots stores I looked in so I purchased Stellar, Apocalyptic and Nova instead. I had … Continue reading
Rummaging through my stash at the weekend it struck me how similar Nars Orgasm is to Sleek Rose Gold, in fact the only real difference I can find between the two is the price. Packaging wise they both come in matte black packaging with an internal mirror although the Nars packaging feels a lot more … Continue reading
You can probably tell by now that I’m super rubbish when it comes to not spending money. I had every intention of popping into Superdrug purely to pick up some much needed Lemsip during the week. Instead I left with a few new goodies from MUA and a couple of my favourite Simple cleanser which happened … Continue reading
So I may have had a sneaky second haul in Topshop. This time I picked up the Up in the Air blush duo and the eye cream duo in Wave Machine, both from the Louise Gray for Topshop collection. Up until now I haven’t been that interested in any of the make-up offerings from Topshop, but … Continue reading
It’s no secret that I’m a HUGE fan of MUA. Every product they make seems to be such high quality and still they manage to keep their prices purse-friendly. At just £1 each it’s a surprise I haven’t snapped up all 16 shades, but amazingly I’ve resisted…for now! I’m sure there have been plenty of … Continue reading
Right, as part of my 2013 blogging resolutions I said I was going to make an effort to create more series features, so starting this week I’ll be writing a weekly Forgotten Favourites post each Friday. Each week I’ll be sharing with you some of my favourite products from the depths of my beauty stash. That’s … Continue reading
So I’ve covered off my Favourite Products of 2012 but which were the ones that left me feeling more than a little disappointed? Here are the products of the year that just didn’t work for me. Umberto Giannini Volume Blow Dry Spray – £5.49 from Boots I was willing to overlook the fact that the … Continue reading
I’ve decided to break this down into two parts as I had no idea how many nail polishes I’d bought until I came to re-pack my suitcase for the trip home. Mike’s face was a picture when he saw me unpack them all! So anyway, here’s my make up haul from CVS and Walgreens. I … Continue reading
It’s hard to believe just a few weeks ago I was pottering around in a t-shirt and shades, now Summer seems just a distant memory and with the clocks going back tonight it’s safe to say Autumn is definitely here. It’s not all bad though, as with Autumn comes log fires, cosy jumpers, comfort food … Continue reading
A few weeks ago I met the lovely Emma of Boom Nails in the Virgin Media Louder Lounge at V Festival and was lucky enough to nab an appointment. As they were uber busy they were only offering accent nails so I opted for this awesome looking aztec design that went with my Missguided Aztec Denim … Continue reading
Last weekend I made the exciting discovery that my JC Litas had finally arrived from the US (I’ll be doing a review of them and the company I used soon), unfortunately they were a 35 minute drive away and I was without a car. To make matters worse the depot was closing in an hour … Continue reading
For a while now I’ve been searching for the perfect Summer scent. Last year it was Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb and the year before it was Estee Lauder’s Bronze Goddess Eau de Perfume. Unfortunately both are now empty and I’ve been left wondering what to replace them with, As you can probably guess when it … Continue reading
Recently we’ve been making a conscious effort to use up any half-used toiletries in an attempt to make our house move in March a little more manageable. That said, there was one product I was hoping would last until the next Boots £5 voucher offer came about. Alas, I ran out of my beloved The … Continue reading
We’ve all been there, you break up with your significant other and are left feeling miserable and wondering what to do with yourself, and then it hits you, why not hand-paint a car with nail varnish?! Well ok, perhaps we haven’t been quite there, but that’s what David Sheath has pledged to do since breaking … Continue reading
