Makeup Mess Mondays | #2

Hello everyone :)

If you missed last week's Makeup Mess Monday, I'm starting a new series in which I show you all the products that crowd my desk on a busy Monday morning. It's an easy way to see which products I reach for most and my favourites for those 'I've only got 10 minutes to get ready' days. We all have them.

Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara | Velvet-Rose

Hello everyone :)

After reading a few raving reviews about the Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara - and seeing as I was in desperate need of a new one - I knew I had to get my hands on it. I've not tried many Rimmel mascara's in the past so I was very excited to try this one, especially considering all of the hype surrounding it.

Makeup Mess Mondays | #1

Hello everyone :)

Happy New Year! To kick off 2014 I'm going to be starting a new series called 'Makeup Mess Mondays' (in my attempt to start blogging every week). I'll try to do one of these plus a review each week, but seeing as I have a lot of coursework and exams coming up I can't promise anything..

Anyway, the purpose of this post is to show you what products I reach for each week. I tend to change up my routine quite often and as I'm now earning money it means I can experiment with more products - yay!

Last Minute Cat Costume | Halloween 2013

Hello everyone :)

As per usual I left finding a Halloween costume until the very last minute. I don't even have an excuse because of workload or lack of time - it was just pure procrastion. Fortunately, I managed to come up with a ridiculously easy 'costume' (if you can call it that!) that everyone can do. I hope it helps if you're planning on going out tonight..

Autumn Beauty Essentials

Hi everyone :)

It has been way too long since I've posted on here - I've missed it!. I've just been so busy with Sixth Form and starting a new job that I've had to put my blog to the side. But I am determined to do at least one post a week, whether it's a review or a ramble.

The Oxblood Pout | ft. Rimmel & Rochas

Hey everyone :)

I'm back from my little blogging break with a new obsession of mine - the 'oxblood pout'. 

There's something very sophisticated and modern about this burgundy, oxblood, wine red lip that I really love. You can team it with simple eyeliner for daytime, then vamp it up with a smokey eye for the evening - it's very versatile.

I've found the perfect products to create this classic look - Rimmel's Kate Moss Lipstick in 107 and the Rochas Lip Contouring Pencil in Delicacy Red.

The lipstick has a matte texture but isn't drying on the lips, and has a distinct scent that I adore. I can't wear dark lipstick without a liner, so I use this dark red lip liner to outline my lips and especially to define my cupid's bow. The liner also comes with a little brush at the end that I use the apply and blend the lipstick - very handy!

This is a look that I'd never usually go for, but this summer I've decided to be more daring so I may be rocking this pout more often! What about you? :)

As always, thanks for visiting my blog! Remember to follow for more posts and say hello in the comments :)

My Spring Picks #2 | Lips

Hey everyone :)

If you don't know already, I've been doing a little 'My Spring Picks' series on this blog, and if you missed part #1 you can read it here.

Anyway, for part #2 I'm going to be talking about my favourite lip products for Spring. I hope you enjoy!

 Hey everyone :)

I've been watching so many of these videos on YouTube and thought it looked really fun, so I thought I'd change it up a bit and do it as a blog post instead. 

1. What is your favorite drugstore makeup brand overall?

January Favourites | Beauty

Hey everyone :)

Today I thought I'd do my first favourites post. I know I'm a little late but I'm sure you can forgive me ;)

February Wishlist 2013 | #1

Hey everyone :) Pinch punch first day of the month! (mwahaha)

Every month I've decided I'm going to do a 'wishlist' post, where I talk about the products and clothing I've been eyeing up recently. If you do the same please link it below, I love reading these kinds of posts!

(Clockwise from top) Bobbi Brown Corrector - £18 ; Rimmel Apocalips - £5.99 ; Floral Vans - £40 ; Topshop Nail Polish in Ashes and Fire - £6 

I've been saving up for the Bobbi Brown Corrector for AGES now, but I'm going to Cardiff for Prom Dress shopping next week so maybe I can pop into John Lewis and have a look. That reminds me! I'm thinking of making a Vlog channel on YouTube because this year I have some exciting trips coming up including a road trip to Rome (woo!). So if you think that's a good idea let me know in the comments and I'll do some vlogging when I'm shopping for Prom dresses :)

I hope you enjoyed this post, as always please feel free to comment any requests and follow this blog for more posts.
