February Favourites

Apology's for this post being a little late

Bourjois 10 Hour Sleep Foundation For my this foundation is one that I know I can use and it will give me nice daytime skin. It's light enough to be worn on a day to day basis and I think it is a absolute re-purchase product

Superdrug Vitamin E Illuminating Moisture Cream Looks amazing dabbed along the cheek bones or mixed with your foundation. It's also super cheap so check it out next time your are in Superdrug

Lush Tea Tree Water Toner Keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day and makes my make-up look fresh and dewy. Kind of like a less expensive version of the Mac Fix+

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder Keeps any unnecessary shine away. I don't think this is anything revolutionary, it is just good at keeping your face matte.

Rimmel Lash Accelerator Mascara Another one of those products that you know you can just use on a day to day basis and it makes your looks presentable.

ELF Tone Correcting Concealer Perfect under the eyes because of the slight peach tones in it.

May Favourites

I think just about everyone in the UK has been taking advantage of the great weather this month, and my May Favourites represent that :)


St. Moriz Self Tanning Mousse Wearing Shorts, dresses and leggings means having to add a little colour to my legs, and this is the only thing i have been using recently

Avon SPF 50 Sun Cream I'm a little overprotective of my skin, especially in the summer so i like to wear SPF 50 under my make-up

Lush Tea Tree Water This is so great as a freshening spray on a hot day, I love it!

Topshop Cream Blush in Flush This is my first ever cream blush, and although it is a kind of cream to powder, i really like it, I cant wait to get some more :)

Mac MSF in Soft and Gentle I LOVE THIS! I kind of neglected it for a while, but this makes an amazing eye shadow! if you have it, try it on your eyes.

Benefit You Rebel Lite Tinted Moisturiser I love this when it's too hot to wear full foundation, but i can only really wear it on good skin days

Essie Nail Polish in Van D'Go I love this on my toes when I'm wearing sandals. LOVE IT!

Maybelline Wet Shine Gloss in Clearly Coral So glad to have this product back in my life!

W7 Metallic eye shadows in Golden Eye, Bronzed & Burnt Plum These are my new loves. Can't wait to get more :)

London Haul :)

London was amazing as always. And i'm so glad we had two days their this time as it meant there wasn't too much of a rush to get everything done :) I didn't really buy a lot because it turns out i am rubbish at saving money :( haha. But anyway this is what i got. I am going to point out that i am not showing any make-up in this haul because i now do my make-up haul's at the end of every month so you will have to wait until then to see what i got :P I am also going to include prices with everything so that if you are interested in buying anything yourselves you know how much it was.

From Zara
Gorgeous Sandals :) I love them and because the weather was nice to day i wore them :) Zara was a little disappointing on the clothes front though :( - £29.99

New purse because i've had my other Zara one for about two years now and i fancied a change! - £19.99

From Primark
Plain white pumps for working this summer - £2.00

I find bracelets like these go with most things - £1.00

The zip on my Topshop bag broke so i think I'm gonna use this as my new school bag - £6.00

I know this is suppose to be over sized but it jut feels WAY too big :S - £5.00

I don't usually wear dresses but i really like the peachy colour on this one - £5.00

I 've been wanting legging like this for ages - £4.00

From Lush
Sugar Babe Scrub - £2.60

Porridge Soap - £2.76

The lady is lush was without a doubt the best member of staff from any shop i have ever met! As soon as we walked in she was just so lovely and bubbly and offered to show me some products and give me a hand massage (which left my hand feeling AMAZING!)

All in all it was a good trip and i cant wait to go again. Seeing the Lion King was amazing and i think if you have the chance then you should get tickets!

Honeyz Haul

So if you follow me on Twitter you may know that i have been home alone for the past 3 days because my mum, dad and sister decided then wanted to spend a few days in Whitby. I however could not tear myself away from this blog and the lovely internet so i stayed home :) While they were there they found the cutest little shop called Honeyz which is family run bath products business, a lot like Lush, but on a much smaller scale. These are the things they brought back with them :)


A Pineapple Bath Bomb, This looks a lot like the Vanilla Fountain from Lush, but it's smaller and smells like Pineapple :)

Heart Shaped bath bomb - I cant quite decide what this smells like ... and because i wasn't there when it was bought i have no idea what it is :( but it's smells lovely :)

Mini Bath Bomb Cubes :) HOW CUTE?!?!

A Mango smelling bath bomb

"Ocean Breeze" Bath Bomb

Mini Bath Marbles (i think they are just like the mini cubes but circles instead)

Honey Soap - you have no idea how good this smells ... it better than Lush's Honey I Washed The Kids ... and i think its cheaper too LOVE IT!

Another heart shaped bath bomb
Not all of this stuff is mine, some is my sisters, but i'll try to either do a review myself for everything or get my sister to tell me what she thinks. I really do urge you to check out their website http://www.honeyzbathproducts.co.uk/ because it's always nice to help out independent businesses where you can right?! :) If you get anything please let me know because i want to hear all about it :)

New Lush Product - Colour Supplements

I just got an e-mail about these new Lush products :)

The website gives you 3 different ways of using them. You can either use them alone as a foundation, mix with moisturiser to create a tinted moisturiser or use lightly in certain areas as a concealer. I'm pretty sure there are only these 4 colours, but they look really interesting :)

What do you think??

Brief Christmas Present Haul

This is basically just a quick picture of the majority of things i got this morning :)

I'll go into more detail about everything separately throughout the next week or so but i thought i would just show you a quick picture of the things to expect. I also got a new TV and a sewing machine but i couldn't be bothered to get them out of their boxes to put them in this picture :)

What did all of you lovely ladies get??

My London Haul

Some of you may have known i was going to London today to do some sight seeing and i didn't think i would get to do a lot of shopping but i did get a little done.


I went to Selfridges for the first time ever. It was really busy but i did find the Nars counter. It was also the first time i'd ever been to a Nars Counter. I had a play with a few things so i could get stuff online next time as i dont even know where my nearest Nars is. I did however pick up the Blush in Orgasm. Yes ... because i am really that original :) haha


We also went to Harrods where i went to the mac counter. I've asked for some mac things for Christmas (but i dont think i will get them) so i could only get things that i hadn't put on my list. In the end i just got the Lipstick in Myth. Again, not very original of me but it is a really pretty nude.


I got a Boots gift card for Christmas with £25 on it so we went and i got an Urban Decay eyeshadow in Sin and a Boots 17 eyeshadow in Mardi Gras. They are both really nice and i think i have about £10 left on my card.

And then finally we went to covent garden where i nipped into lush but it was soo packed that i only got 2 things :) Both of them are bubbles bars which i am sure you have seen before.

Once i've used everything a few times i'll get round to reviews and swatches :) There were a few things that i am interested to try from Nars so i don't think this blush will be my last purchase :) The Urban Decay shadows are also beautiful so i can't wait to get a few more of those!

What have you been up to today??

Christmas Lush Haul :)

I got all this stuff quite a while ago so most of it is gone now :( i just haven't been in the mood to write about it!



Basically i got:


  1. Creamy Candy Bubble Bar

  2. Star Melt

  3. Candy Came Bubble Bar
  4. Fairy Tail Scrub
  5. Cinders Bath Bomb

The one one i didnt really like was Cinders bath bomb because of the smell. I like things that smell super sweet and this one just didnt really :( If you would like a review on anything then just leave me a comment and i will do it for you :)

How to use a Lush Bubble Bar

I know that there are a lot of bloggers out there that already use Lush Bubble Bars but for anyone that doesn't, here is a quick how to :)

1. Take the Bubble Bar of your choice (i have candy cane)

2. Take about 1/4 of it (take more if it is a smaller bar or you want more bubbles!)


3. crumble in your fingers under hot water

4. It should look like this in your hand

5. Let the magic happen :)


A lot of the Bubble Bar's will change the colour of your water. As a little head's up, the Ma Bar smells delish but turns your water brown :( it looks kinda gross!

Topshop, Lush & Magazine Haul :)

So i arrived home today to some very lovely packages :) The first (and probably most exciting) was from Topshop. I'd ordered some Sequin leggings for my birthday cocktail party on friday but was sooo worried they wouldn't look nice. I know they aren't to everyone's taste but my mum and dad like them :) and so do i! They were £30 and you can get them on the Topshop Website if you are interested

a close up of the sequins :)
i've never had a topshop tag like this before :)

Then i got my box from Lush. I got 3 of my favourite things and once i've used them i can do a review if you like?!?! I got Vanilla Fountain Bath Ballistic, Creamy Candy Bath Bubble Bar and Candy Cane Bubble Bar. Candy Cane is probably my favourite but it only comes out at Christmas so i think i might stock up :)

And then there's Marie Claire, Glamour and Elle :) The pictures of Cheryl Cole in Elle are really pretty :)
