Huge M.A.C and Sephora Haul

So I have recently gotten back from Florida and of course I went to Sephora, who couldn't when you travel to the USA. I'm going to start off with what I picked up from M.A.C as there isn't at much to talk about. So the first thing I picked up was a M.A.C eyeshadow in the shade Antiqued, I love this shade and have been wearing it a lot since I bought it, the second thing I picked up was a M.A.C Paint Pot in Painterly, I have been using this since I bought it, I have no idea what I did without this.

So on to what I picked up in Sephora, and there is a lot, I spent a lot of money in Sephora but I had been saving up and didn't spend as much as I thought I would. 

The first thing I picked up was the Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Airbrushed Foundation in Fair Light Neutral, I had wanted this foundation for ages, and I am so pleased that I purchased this, the coverage is amazing and depending in what type of brush you use will depend in the amount of coverage, this is a very build able foundation and I have worn this a lot since I got my hands on it. To go with this foundation I picked up the Pro Flawless Light Powder Brush in 50, this is an amazing brush and i love using it with this powder foundation, as it gives a very natural finish. 

I also picked up on of the Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Exposed, I have worn is everyday since I purchased it, I think it is save to say I am in love with this, very natural blush that just makes you look healthy. 

Now on to all the brow products I picked up, I used to be the person that didn't do much to her brows as I though it didn't make a difference and oh I was wrong so I knew that I needed to pick up the Anataisa Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Dark Brown, I have been using this every time to do my make-up.  The next brow product I picked up was the Anataisa Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade in Dark Brown, I normally use them went I am doing a full face of make-up, I wore this for my graduation.
I also picked up the Sephora Brow Filler 100, I love this brush it works really well for filling in my brows it works really well.

The next thing I picked up was the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper  I have needed a new felt tip liner for while and I had hear good things about this, I have to say that I love this eye-liner, its just a shame that I can't buy this easily in the UK.

I also picked up the Bite Neutral Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo in Date and Fig, I struggle to find neurtal lipsticks that suit my skintone but both fig and date suit me really well and they are prefect to carry around in handbag and are prefect for days when I don't want to have to worry about my lip colour fading. I also picked up Bite Luminous Creme Lipstick in Fig  I love this colour so much and I wanted the full size.

If you have read my blog before you may realised that I have a love of Red lipstick, so I picked up the Sephora Cream Lip Stain in 01, this is a love red shade it is long wearing and amazing.

I have wanted a spot cleaner for ages so I picked up the Sephora Daily Brush Cleaner, this cleans by brushes quickly and it doesn't take them very long to dry and they feel so nice after I use this.

The next things I got with points, the first thing was a travel size  Living Proof Instant Texture Mist, I like this as it gives my hair a little it more texture, I like using this when I am not doing much to my hair. The next thing I got was the Sephora Contour Eye Pencil 12hr Wear- Waterproof, this is a beautiful blue eye-liner that looks amazing when I am I wearing wear very little on my eyes.
The last thing is the birthday present from Sephora, it was the Nars Duo in Cruella and Rikigien, I love both of these colour and will get a lot of wear out of them. 

Una Brennan Salicyclic Acid Anti Blemish Clay Mask Review

So I have been meaning to write this post for awhile now, I am eventually getting around to putting my thoughts about this product down on paper (laptop). I have been using this clay mask now for about 8 months if not more and I have really enjoyed using this product.

The product claims to clear out dirt, excessive oils and toxins which leads to breakouts, I have been using this for about 4 months now I have to say it is one of the most effective clay masks I have used and it really does work well on my blemishes and it does help to clear out my pores as I have very oily skin which means that I tend to have quite a lot of black heads which are really stubborn. I use this mask about twice a week and I love it as I only have to leave it on for 5 minutes.
This means that I can easily add it into my skin care routine even if i am in a bit of a hurry as I don't have to sit around for 15 minutes. I do however tend to use this more at night as I removes excess oil I find that I like to use it at night so I can go straight in with my serum and moisturiser.

I like the packaging for this product as it is a simple layout and I like that the background is a light grey with black, Bright Green and Grey text and the front is easy to read. I like that the product just tells you what you need to know.

The product is a quite thick but is really easy to apply to the face and I like to use quite a thick layer over the skin, it doesn't take very long to dry, it does tingle a little when it is applied to the skin but it doesn't tingle for long and most importantly it doesn't burn. It makes the skin feel very soft and it does help with my blemishes, and you don't have to wait around for ages for this product to work as you only need to leave it on for 5 minutes, which is great for me as I get very bored when I have to sit with a face mask on for 15 minutes for more.

I haven't noticed that much of a smell with this product, this would be good for people that are sensitive to smells.

This product would be great for oily or blemish prone skin, it might be a little much for people who have dry skin but if you following it but with a hydrating serum and moisturiser you may be able to get away with it.

I would definitely say that this mask it worth the money, it is £8.99 from boots, I think this is very good value for the money.

Graduation Ball Makeup

So I have just had my graduation ball and though it would be nice to show you what make up I wore.

I took my Nars Luminous Weightless Foundation, which might have developed into my new favourite foundation, I am in the shade Mont Blac, this is a foundation that is best suited to oily skin and it lasts for a really long time and it has very good coverage it would say medium but it is definitely buildable. I also brought my sample size of my Benefit Porefessional, which is one of my favourite primers. I also brought my benefit stay all day eye primer and my NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk. For concealers I brought my Maxfactor Colour Corrector Stick for Under Eyes and my Revlon Colour Stay in Light, this is a little yellow but it blends really well and the coverage is okay its not amazing but it does the job. For my Eyes I used my Urban Decay Naked on The Run Palette which I will do a review on when I get back from Florida, as it is advertised as the perfect travel palette, as it has bronzer, blush and a highlighter. For contour I brought my Illmasqua Hollow, which is the perfect cream contour for pale skin. I also brought my Urban Decay Subversion and Perversion mascara. For my Brows I used the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette the two darkest colours and my Maybelline Brow Drama. On my cheeks I used my friends Nars Blush (I was going to use my Topshop Creme Blush in Head over Heels). On my lips I used my Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 107 and my Ellis Faas Lipstick in the shade L103. The highlighter I used Benefits High Beam and One Heck of a Blot.

Very Small Haul

So I was only the look out for some new products mainly a waterproof mascara and a new concealer, so I thought I would share what I picked up in Boots and Superdrug,

The first thing I picked up was the L'Oreal False Lash Architect Waterproof, which has 4 dimension effect fibres, now I needed a waterproof mascara, as I was attending my Nanna Funeral so needed something that wouldn't run down my face and it held up pretty well.

The second thing I picked up was Revlon Colorstay Concealer in the Shade Light, I had been using Seventeen Phawworr paint but recently we hadn't been getting along, so i decided on this as it matched my skin pretty well and can cover both under my eyes and blemishes brilliantly.

The final thing I picked up was the Bourjois 123 Perfect CC Cream, and I have been wearing this non stop for the last week of March, it is slightly to dark but I can blend it really well it is light enough that my skin can breath but still gives me enough coverage, I am in love and I think I will take this to Florida with me and it will match me better in summer, (or Florida heat).

January Favourites 2015

Beauty Blender:

I got the beauty blender as I Christmas present from the lovely Becca, If it is possible to fall in love with a make up tool then I can safely say I have. Why you may ask? Well it leaves my foundation looking flawless as it covers my pores, which always makes my make up look so much better. I think I have used this everyday or almost since I have started back in Uni. :)

Alien Eau de Perfume :
If you read my what I got for Christmas post, you have already know I received this, I have worn it almost everyday apart from a few occasions where, I forgot or used another one I got for Christmas. I love the smell, and the bottle also looks amazing too.

Urban Decay Naked On the Run Palette:
OMG I love this palette so much, I am trying not to use it too much as I am planning on taking it to Florida but it makes doing my make up so quick and easy as all the products i need are in the same place. I am going to write a review of this soon hopefully.

No7 Superlight Foundation:
I loved this back in summer, and I have found myself reaching for it a lot this month, it evens out my skin but it isn't full coverage which I am liking at the moment, as I wore a lot of make up over Christmas.

Chanel Lipstick in Priate:
This is another Christmas gift, and I have only worn it a few times but the colour is amazing and it is so easy to apply and looks amazing on the lips, this is a lipstick that I will only wear on special occasions but it is lovely.

Favourite person:

So this isn't a beauty favourite it is a human favourite I don't normally do these however this month I am. Becca from a Polkadot notebook, has to be my favourite person, I will point out she is also my best friend so its not that strange well maybe just a little strange. I love her blog and I also love her as a person (soppy much?)

Christmas Wishlist

So Christmas is getting closer and I have been thinking about things I would like.

The first thing I have fallen in live with is the new Urban Decay On The Run Palette: 

I think I described this a the perfect palette for Florida as I wouldn't have to take any other face products apart from foundation. The shades are amazing and I do have a major love of urban decay products.

Ceramic Snowman Cup from Costa: 

I love the Christmas cup from costa and when I saw these I instanly wanted one and I have to say the snow man is my favourite. 

 

TopShop Glow Highligher in the shade Polish: 

I have had my eye in this forever, every time I go into TopShop I end up swatching this and always send up leaving without purchasing it, I love the fact that is a creame highlighter as I love creame products. 

Diptyque Epice Candle:
OMG this candle smells amazing it reminds me so much of Christmas as it is so spicy and lovely, however I can't justify spending £15 on a mini candle, I might have to buy it in the sale after Christmas.
 

A5 Dreamscape Detail Diary:

My current diary runs out at the end of the year (obviously) and I have been looking for a new one and I found this one in paper chase and fell in love as it looks so pretty. It has a week by week view which means I have enough room to write everything I am doing everyday which helps to keep me organised. It also has an owl on it which is an added bonus and it costs £14. 

Autumn Blushes

I love it when the seasons change and I can bring out my old favourites autumn/winter products and as you have already seen is my Autumn Lipsticks and I love the blushes that I wear in the colder months so here is the list of my favourite blushes.

Sleek Blush in Flushed:
This blush is a deep plum with a matte finish and I love how this looks on the cheeks as it just gives a lovely flush to the cheeks and it looks great on my pale skin, and with sleek it is very pigmented a little goes a very long way. It is a perfect autumnal colour.

Sleek Blush in Pomegranate:
Pomegranate is a berry coloured blush that has a shimmery finish and it is very pigmented, which means that a little goes a very long way, but it goes give a nice glow to the cheeks and it is a great blush for autumn/winter.

Illamasqua  Cream Blush in Seduce:
This has to be my favourite autumnal blush it is a warm rose pink that has a dewy finish it does look over the top which can happen with some shimmery blushes but this does have a lovely dewy finish. It is so easy to apply because it is a cream blush it blends out amazingly well and it is very difficult to use to much because of the fact that it is a cream product it is very easy to fix mistakes.

Autumn Lipsticks

 

So now that September is here and in England the weather has changed, I though it was about time I started thinking about my Autumn Lipsticks. I love autumn and winter as I get to wear all my deep and dark lipsticks :).

I have a lot of lipsticks that I like to wear in autumn/winter and in autumn I tend to wear more red/berry shades as I absolutely love wearing them. These are the seven lipsticks that I love to wear in the colder months.

MAC Rebel:
I got this as a Christmas present last year and I completely fell in love with it as I could build it up and wear it as a deep plum shade or it would be applied as a sheer wash of colour which and it still looking amazing.

Revlon Black Cherry:
When I first saw this lipstick i have to say it looked really really dark in the bullet and this can look really dark on the lips but i do love how it looks on the lips and it really is a vampy colour that I really love.



L-R Rimmel Glam Plum Fulham, MAC Rebel, Wet & Wild Ferguson Crest Cabernet, Revlon Black Cherry, Illamasqua Sangers, Rimmel Kate Moss 107, Rimmel Apocalips Galaxy

Wet & Wild Ferguson Crest Cabernet:
This was the first purple colour that I received and it is one that i use the least but i do really like the colour and i will have to start wearing it more often as it is a really nice colour.

Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 107:
the is a really nice wine colour and because it is matte it staying on the lips and it also still looks nice when it has started to fade, which is always a bonus and I do love matte lips.

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick Glam Plum Fulham:
I love this lipstick and I love the fact that it does dry my lips out and it looks quite glossy on the and although it doesn't say as long as my matte lipsticks it still stays for quite awhile and I don't mind having to reapply it.

Illamasqua Sangers:
I love wearing this red in autumn as it isn't too bright but it isn't too dark so i feel like i can wear it on a daily basis, and i really love how long wearing this is and it really does stay put, i really want more of the Illamasqua lipsticks.

Rimmel Apocalips Galaxy:
I really love the this colour it isn't as in your face as some of my other purples and i love that this has a little bit of shimmer in the lipstick, and i did get a lot of wear out of this and I'm sure i will this autumn winter too.
 

August Favourites

So it is the time of the month where I tell you all about the products that I have using and loving this month and I really can't believe that August is over all ready. 

The first thing I have been completely in love with this month is the No7 Superlight Foundation in the shade Calico, which I have reviewed if you want to check it out you can click here. I really love this foundation as it is the perfect colour for my skin tone and as I haven't needed a lot of coverage this month I have found my self wearing it a lot. It last really well on my although I do still have to powder during the day I don't have to do it as much as it contains some powder within the foundation itself.

The next thing I have enjoyed using has been my John Frieda Luxurious Volume Touchably Full Shampoo for Colour Treated Hair and the John Frieda Luxurious Volume Touchably Full Conditioner, I really like them as they lather well and leaving my hair feeling really clean and they do give a hint of volume which is good as I do have quite flat hair.

The third thing I have been in love with is my Topshop Cream Blush in the shade Head over Heels, which looks very bright in the pan but once it is applied to the cheeks it gives a lovely peachy glow to the cheeks and it can be paired with a lot of different eye and lip looks as it does give a healthy glow to the cheeks and it is perfect for spring summer but I think I will find myself wearing this in winter too. I also love the cream to powder finish.

A skin care favourite this month in the Eucerin Purifyer Cleanser, Becca from a Polkadot Notebook Blog gave me a sample as she though that I would like it. I have I to say that I am completely in love with it and although it is a purifying cleanser it doesn't dry my skin out and I have to say it does work really well to clean up any breakouts I might be having.

I have also fallen back in love with an old skin care product and it is the Clearasil Daily Clear Deep Cleansing Pads, I use these instead of a tone on an evening and I find that these also help to clear up my skin and they do sometimes sting if I have a spot but it does really help to clean them up.

A Small Collective Haul

So last Tuesday I went shopping with Becca from A Polka Dot Notebook Blog and I picked up a few things from Debenhams, Boots and Marks and Spencer's.

So the first thing I picked up was the Urban Decay Perversion Mascara and Subversion primer £17.99:
I had know intention of buying this as I don't normally spend that much on mascara but Becca enabled me as she was wearing this and it looked amazing, and as this is new I got it for £17.99 which is much cheaper than it would have been if I had bought them separately.

The second thing I bought was from boots these were: 

I picked up the Lynx Dry Deodorant in Excite £3.29:
I know that is for men but I really love the smell and it doesn't make me sneeze like most deodorants do. 

The next thing I picked up was the Revlon Colourstay Moisture Stain in the Shade New York Scene £7.99 : 

This is a dark red which is a very me colour and I have to say I have gotten quite of abit of wear out of it has it doesn't take ages to apply.
The next thing I picked up was the Sleek I-Divine Storm Palette £7.99:

I have wanted a sleek palette for awhile and I had decided that I didn't need another completely nude palette and I really like the shades that are in the palette. 

Marks and Spencer's:- 

Nuxe Rêve de Meil Lip Moisturings Stick with Honey and Sunflower £5.50: 

I have the Nuxe Rêve de Meil and I wanted something that I could carry around with me as I don't like to take the glass jar with me, I will get a lot of use out of this over the cooler months. 

No7 Stay Prefect Superlight Foundation- Review

I bought this foundation a few weeks ago as I wanted something that was lighter than my normal foundation but something that wouldn't melt off my face within about an hour. I was also looking for something that I could also carry around with me when I was going swimming.

My friend has been using this foundation for while so I decided to give it ago and I went in to boots and was colour matched as the lightest shade (I don't no why I bother being colour matched).

So what can I say about this foundation well as the name suggests it is a light foundation that has light to medium coverage and it is great for just evening out the skin and I feel like I can get away with not wearing concealer, but it doesn't completely cover them but it does make them less noticeable.

Straight after appliction

6 hours later

The foundation itself has some powder in it which does help to slightly matte down my face and although it says it lasts for 24 hour I would say it lasts that long but it does look good during the day. I do however feel the need to powder it as I do tend to look quite shiny as the day goes on but that is normal with any foundation.

I have also worn this with and without a primer and I have found that it lasts a little longer with a matte primer as it help to control my oily skin.

I do really like this foundation and for its price I can't really complain £14.50 but No7 have a lot of offers on so it is possible to get it a little cheaper, and although it is more expensive than my Rimmel Match Perfect I prefer this foundation as it gives better coverage and it always looks good.

Beauty wish list

So this is my Beauty Wish list

Elemis Fresh Skin, Skin Clear Mattifying Moisturiser £21.00: I have been looking for a very mattifying moisturiser, as my current one is running out and doesn't really help to control oil as much as I would like it too.

Illimasqua Cream Pigment in Hollow £17.50:

I have wanted a cream contour for a while but everyone I have seen has either been to dark or too orange for my very pale skin, but this colour looks like it would work really well. 

Superfacialist Clay Mask £5.99: 

Now I know that I can buy this online but with skin care I love going in to boots and looking around, I have been after this mask since Christmas when I bought my friend one as a Christmas present and it took me an age to find one and every time I have been into boots since it hasn't been in stock :(

Eucerin Purifyer Cleanser £9.50:
I have been using a sample of this for a few weeks that my friend gave me as she has raved about it and I have to say it is an amazing cleanser, which really does amazing things to my skin and really helps to stop breakouts.

 

Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil Review

I have been using this cleanser for awhile now and I thought it was about time that I reviewed it, the body shop say that the silky soft cleanser will effortlessly remove makeup and cleanse. It's really easy to use and I do love the body shop skin care as it has helped me out a lot in the past.

So now that we know what the body shop say it does let's hear my opinion, I have to say I love the smell of this product and it's not a over powering, I find the smell quite relaxing which is always nice for a cleanser.

The purpose of the cleanser is to remove make up and cleanse your face, so pretty simple really.

The texture of this cleanser is really soft and does feel amazing on the skin which is nice and it really does making removing makeup quick and easy which is always good as it doesn't take me an age to remove makeup and cleanse your face. 

The packaging is really practical as it is clear which means you can see exactly how much product you have left and the pump is great as you don't end up with too much product so you don't waste much of the product. Another great thing about the product as on the back to gives clear instructions on how to use the product which is always a bonus ( I hate products that don't tell you how to use them). 

As I have already said I really love this and it works really well it removes makeup really quickly and easily and it doesn't leave you skin feeling greasy or oily which is always good and I have found that I can use this with my oily skin and if says it is for all skin tupe and I have to say I agree with it as this would work on all skin types. I also love the fact that this can be used to remove eye makeup as I dislike having to use to different products to remove my makeup. 

I would say that anyone can use this product, it's isn't anti aging but it would be suitable for anyone looking for a great way to remove makeup and cleansing their face. I will definitely repurchase this once I have finish it, which might take me awhile.

The cleanser costs £10.00 and you get 200ml of product.

You can find the Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil here.

July Favourites

I really can't believe that it is the end of July already, so on to my July favourites

The first thing I have fallen back in love with is my Naked 2 palette, as I love my neutral eyeshadows and I have also been loving my purple eyeshadow from Inglot. 

The second thing I have been loving this month is my Body Shop Camolie Cleansing oil as it makes taking my makeup off so quick and easier which is always brilliant, and it smell lovely too which is always a bonus for skin care. 

For makeup brushes I have been completely in love with my new Crown Blush brush, as I can apply any type of blusher with is which is great and it means that I can apply my blusher to exactly where I want it which I struggled to do with my Real Techniques Blush Brush. 

Another makeup favourite has to be my Estée Lauder Double wear foundation in the shade Ivory Nude,  although this is a very full coverage foundation it doesn't feel to heavy on my skin and it is the only foundation that won't melt of my face as the day goes on which is something I really struggle with in summer. 

Early in the month I bought a new scrub from the body shop as my peach scrub had ran out so i decided to try the body shop Blueberry Scrub Gelee which I have to say I have fallen completely in love with as it is a very good scrub but I doesn't leave a sticky residue on my skin like some suger scrubs, for example soap and glory flake away. 

Another thing I have been wearing a lot of this month is my body shop body mist in vinyard peach, it is a lovely stuble smell that lasts quite well on me, and it isn't a hassle to apply like my miniatures from L'Occitane. 

That is it for my July favourites and I would love it if you could follow me on twitter and on bloglovin.

Face of the Day 1

So I have decided to start doing face of the days as I love reading what makeup people are wearing so let's talk about what I have on my face today.

Base: 

The first thing I have is my Body Shop Skin Primer Matte It, which is a nice primer it's not as amazing as the benefit Porefessional but it does help to keep my oily skin under control, for foundation I used my Illmasqua Liquid Light foundation which I do really like although I do have to power it as it isn't a matte foundation, for my blemishes I used my Seventeen Phwoarr Paint in the Shade fair which does blend into my skin really well. To conceal my under eye circles I used my MaxFactor CC colour corrector for dark circles and my Seventeen Stay time 18 hour concealer. 

Eyes: 

The first thing used was my Makeup Revolution focus and fix eye primer in matte, I the used my Naked 2 palette, the shades I used was booty call all over my lid, tease in my crease and busted in the outer corner and for Mascara I used my benefit they're real. 

Cheeks: 

For blush I used was my Revlon Photo Ready blush in Flushed, which is a lovely pink shade and for Bronzer and contour was my Bodyshop Honey Bronzer in the shade 02, which is a really lovely shade that isn't too dark for me. For highlighter I used my Makeup Revolution vivid baked highlighter in the shade peach lights, which gives a lovely glow to the skin and my Rimmel matte power to set everything into place,

Lips: 

Strangely for me I'm not actually wearing anything on my lips and if I do I am wearing my Nuxe Rêve de Miel lip balm or my lip butter in the shade tutti fruiti. 

My Orange Lipsticks

So as you may or my not be aware I have a major love of lipstick and just realised that I have quite a lot of orange lipsticks well four that are almost the same colour, so let's get on to the lipsticks.

The first one I have is my MAC Lady Danger which is an orangey red colour, which I have to say I fell in love with it as soon as I swatched it but I have mentioned that before so, back to the post. Now while I was swatching these I noticed that one of my Rimmel lipsticks was a very similar colour not formula wise but they are definitely similar in colour.

So I have to say my Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in the shade In Love with Ginger is a little bit more orange than Lady Danger but is very similar in colour but the finish of the lipstick is a lot more moisturising and is lot more comfortable to wear during the day as it doesn't dry my lips out. 

The next orange lip colour I have is my Revlon Color Burst Matte Balm in the shade Audacious, which is a pure orange colour and although it is a matte lip colour its isn't as drying as my other matte lipsticks which means that it is very comfortable to wear.

Now my last orange lip colour is one I got a few years ago and it was the first orange colour I had and it is my Revlon Lip Butter in the Shade Tuti Fruiti, which just giving a lovely was of orange over the lips and will look different depending on how dark your own lip colour is and because it is a lip butter is isn't drying on the lips which is always a bonus in the summer months.

My Body Shop Haul

So recently the Body shop were having a sale and when I received an email saying that I could get an extra 40% off I had to check it out so here is a Body Shop Haul

One of the first things that I put in my basket was the Passion Fruit Body Butter and I probably didn't need another body butter but I really wanted a nice fruity body butter an I am completely in love with it and I love the smell.

The next thing I picked up was the Passion Fruit Shower Gel now I got this to go with the body butter as I like to layer up smells as the always seem to last longer that way.

The third thing I picked up was the Blueberry Body Scrub Gelee, now I have to say this wasn't something that I thought I would like as I am very picky when it comes to scrubs, I have the Soap and Glory flake away and I really don't like it as I sticks to my legs and I don't feel clean when I have used it. Now back to the Blueberry Body Scrub Gelee, I really like this as it feels amazing on the skin and isn't too abrasive and the smell is amazing as well.

The fourth thing I picked up was Strawberry Shower Gel, now I didn't pick this up for me I bought 4 for these for my mam awhile ago and as she was running out, I decided to order her another one, as she really does like strawberry scents.

The fifth thing I picked up my the Raspberry Shower Gel, I do really love how this smells and I had told my self I didn't need anymore shower gel but I have used a lot over the last few months and I have a feeling my mam will be sharing this with me.

Now the sixth thing I bought wasn't for me as my mam asked if I could order me another Strawberry Eau de Toilette as she had noticed that hers was only half full so I picked her another one up.

I also picked up the Vineyard Peach Body Mist and I have been wearing this almost everyday since I bought it and I really to love the smell its not to powerful that it is too much and it doesn't really last well on me which is great.

The last thing I picked up was the Skin Primer Matte It, now I have been using the
Smashbox sample of their Photo finish primer but it isn't right for my skin so I decided to give this a go and I have to say as I first impression I do really like it I will do a review when I have used it more.
Also if you haven't already follow me on BlogLovin and twitter.

Summer Nails

In winter I tend to wear a lot of dark red and purple nail polish but in summer I like to wear either bright reds and oranges or more pastel colour depending on my mood. 

So here are some of the nail polishes I love and why, 

So the first one is a recent purchase and to be honest I don't get the whole scented nail polish thing but I have to say the colour is amazing and the scent isn't that bad either, the polish I am on about is the new Revlon Parfumerie in China Flower although I did find that in the bottle it doesn't look as red the colour is really amazing and I might invest in more of these. I also love the packaging of this the bottle is so cute and it would be a nice one to keep on display. The brush is something that I didn't think I would like as it look quite thin but I have to say that is a actually a really nice brush I didn't find my self struggling with it as it fans out and can coat most of the nail which is great. 

The next nail polish I have is one I purchased last year and it is the Rimmel I love lasting finish in the colour 200 orange your life and this is a nice orange colour that I do like it wear on my nails and it is one of the few colours that isn't blue, and I really like the brush on this as it is wide enough that I don't struggle to paint all of my nail and it doesn't look streaky. 

The next one is another Rimmel I love lasting finish in the shade 703 Pear Drop now this to be is a pastel blue shade with a slight metallic shine to it which gives a really nice effect on the nails, and as with Orange Your Life the brush is really nice and practical. 

The next nail polish is one that I mentioned in a recent haul, it is the Butter London Henley Regatta,which isn't something I would normally go for I as I'm not the keen on glitters but I do like the colour which is a blue green type shade but I have to say that I love this and can be worn on it own and built up and it looks amazing and the I would defiantly get more of their polishes. 

The next one is one of the Models Own Hyper Gel polishes in the shade Blue Glint, this is a lovely blue shade which has a really shiny finish which I quite like, although I did struggle to apply this the first time I used it I do really like it, and it lasts quite well and I have top say I do want to try their hyper gel top coat. 

The two are both from Bourjois and the first one is one of their So Laque Glossy in the shade 05 Taupe Modèle which is a light grey shade and I wear this when I don't really want a bright or pastel nail polish and I really like it the colour and the staying power of these polishes. The next one I have from Bourjois is one of their Ultra. Shine So Laque in the shade 60 Bleu Fabuleux which is a lovely shiny blue and I also find that the staying power is very good as it says it is meant to last for up to 7 days and yes you get some wear but I isn't to obvious. 

My second of last polish is one of the Barry M aquarium Collection and I have the shade 404 Arabian which is a metallic Blue Green shade and I have to say I really like this shade and of course I do like the Barry M polishes and I also hate to say it but I only own 3 of there polishes, but I do love all the shade I have. 

The last polish is a one from TopShop and I have it in the shade 203 Green Room which is a lovely Bright Green Shade and it have to say it is a really nice colour but I won't say that I am completely in love with the formula, it it is okay for a few days I defiantly love the colour. 

So this is all the nail polish colour I like to wear in summer and if you haven't al ready follow me on bloglovin.
