February Glossy Box

Hey Everyone,

So i signed up to the 3 month subscription for Glossybox just to give it a go, and see if I would enjoy the little package of goodies.



First thing is first, the packaging is amazing. I now use this months box to store my make-up brushes because I love it so much. It's a different design to normal, as it was the valentines day special. It is also a really sturdy and thick box, so i was already pretty impressed. =]





When i opened up the box the products were rapped in tissue paper with a ribbon wrapped around it. (so exciting) This is what was inside my box....

I know this sounds really bad but the lollipop made me the most excited, and it was delicious!! Haha. 

In my box i recieved : 
Micabella Cosmetics- Mineral Blush Powder
Voulez-Vous- Warming Body Oil (Pina Colada)
MEMEME Cosmetics- FatCat Lengthening Mascara
Helen E Cosmetics- Moisturizing Lipstick
Narciso Rodriguez- For Her L'Eau

In my honest opinion, I didn't really like the lipstick, it says its moisturising, but it just dried my lips out.
The mascara is very good, and the perume tester smells AMAZING!!
I havn't tried the warming oil yet, I am abit fussy with these kind of products, because i have sensitive skin, but i may try a little. 
I also havn't used the blush powder yet, but it looks good, so we shall see =]

Lots Of Love

Valentines Nails

Hey Everyone,

So i know this is a little late for posting my valentines day nails, but better late than never... right?

I used
Essie- Pink Diamond
Barry M- Silver Glitter
Models Own- Blizzard.

This design is really easy to do, although it can get a bit time consuming. The photo dosn't really show the full effect of the glitter, but the Models Own glitter really does make the design much more sparkely. 

Lots Of Love

Massive Luxury Make-up Haul

Right firstly I need to say that I don't normally do this, and the products bought, were bought on two seperate occasions.

So the first haul was my first ever trip were rather than going in Boots or Superdrug I went into House Of Fraser.
This is where I bought my Clinique set, which included a full size mascara, an eye liner pencil (only about a centimetre smaller than the full size one) and a little pot of eye cream. It also had a little purple mesh make-up bag in it, perfect for my handbag.


The benefit palette 'Go tropicoral' was bought instead of the alternative of just buying the pot of blush, because it included a highlighter, cheek and lip tint, and lipgloss. So my logic was that if i liked the product I could buy the single pot of blush, and if i liked any other things in it I could get them too.

The next shopping trip ( a few days later) I walked past the Bobbi Brown stand and really wanted another colour blush, and i'd been looking online at some of the produces and they looked lovely. The one I ended up getting was The 'Pot Rouge for Lips and Cheeks' this was in the shade pale pink. I love this shade, I apply a very small amount using a foundation brush to the apples of my cheeks and it looks so lovely on my skin tone. 
I absolutely adore my MAC lipstick, I love lipstick I finally went into MAC wanting a lipstick, I wanted to get a slightly pinky nude and the lady helped me out and picked me out a few shades, this one being my favourite. It's in the shade Lovelorn which is a lusterizer.

My real techniques brushes I got from superdrug as I wanted nice new clean brushes for my new make-up. These were a little pricey, but they are so super soft that I definitly don't regret buying them!! 
I also jumped on the crazy band waggon and got myself the Collection 2000 concealer in shade 3. ( i know that isn't luxury, but i love it.) And finally my Essie nail polish, I got this is 'Pink Diamond' I have loved this shade for so long, and finally got it for myself 
( I used this polish for my valentines nails, so I will show this in my next post. =] ) 

Lots Of Love

Lots of Shopping.


Sorry I havn't posted in a while. I don't even have a proper excuse, i've just been being a bit lazy.
I have however done alot of shopping, so I have a few goodies to share with you.
Firsty, I went home last week, and of course ended up going shopping with my sister, purchasing only a few products.. but expensive..





Most exciting part of this shopping trip was definitly my Ipad mini!! I LOVE it!!, I also got some new UGGs, the classic short light brown, and a jack wills cardi, which was in the sale. =]

Right, on friday I went to birmingham, on a little shopping treat as i'd just finished all of my uni assignments, I did go a little bit crazy (don't even regret it) =]
here is what I bought.




Most of this was from forever 21, I absolutley adore that shop, and because I don't have one back at home, I always go a tad overboard. As you all know I also love my nail polish, so I got a few more, some cute jewellery, and a little cath kidson dish to put my rings in.
I tried to stick to nice pastels, as spring/summer is fast approaching.

So in the past couple of weeks I have gone a bit crazy with shopping, but it was totally worth it <3

Lots of Love
