What I Got For My 18th Birthday

So on Saturday the 17th of may it was my 18th birthday, i got lots of lovely things and i really wanted to share them with you guys. As it was my 18th birthday i was very spoiled, so i just want to say a massive thank you to all my family for buying me these amazing things.
The first thing i got i actually got before my birthday as i really really needed it and that was a new phone, i got the Samsung galaxy s4 which i am in love with, its my new baby.
I also went on a trip to Paris which will be another post.


I got quite a few things from the body shop which i asked for. I really wanted to try some things from the vitamin E range, so i asked for a few of them. I got the Moisture Serum which i have only used a few times and i have been loving it the texture is lovely and it makes my skin feel really soft. The Cream Exfoliater i actually didn't ask for this but im glad i got it as i really needed a new exfoliater, i have used it once or twice and its very nice, its very creamy as the name would suggest, so you need to add water to it to feel the scrubby bits. The last vitamin E product is the Eye Cream, i really needed a new eye cream and i thought this would be good so i asked for it, i have used every night or so since i got it and i have really been enjoying it, it nice and moisturising and not greasy at all, it is a lovely product. I also asked for the Camomile Cleansing Oil as i have just finished using the camomile cleansing butter and i really loved using that so i thought i would give this ago as well, i have used it a few times and i really like it. The only problem is one of these new face products has been braking me out and i don't know which one it is as i have been using them all, so that's not good. The last thing from the body shop is this Born Lippy Lip Balm in raspberry, i have wanted to try one of these for ages but have never picked one up and i don't know why because i love it soooo much and i now want very scent lol.


The next few things are from lush. I always get caught into buying a little mini of the Charity Pot hand and body Moistuiser when im at the till in lush, but i don't mind as i really love it so i thought i would ask for the big size for my birthday, it smells a bit weird but its really lovely. I also got the Think Pink Bath Bomb, i already had one of these which i hadn't used yet so now i have two, i hope i like it lol.


MAC. I have two mac eye shadows and i love them sooo much so i thought i would ask for a few more bits for my birthday.The Lipstick in Angel this is my first ever lipstick from mac so i thought i would make it natural and wearable for everyday, which this is, Its a light nudy pink and i love it so much. The Eye Shadow in All That Glitters I went into mac and swatched almost all of there eye shadows and this one really stood out to me so i thought i would ask for it, its a lovely light goldy almost pinky toned colour, its very natural and lovely to wear everyday just all over the lid by its self. The Paint Pot in Bare Study this is a lovely light champagne colour which looks lovely and natural all over the lid by itself or as a base, i have used this once and its nice i like it, its not that amazing though. When my Aunite brought me the eye shadow and lipstick she got some free samples which are a primer (don't know which one) and the strobe cream which i am excited to use.


Vera Wang bejeweled perfume. I sprayed a bit of this on my arm when i was browsing around Selfridges and i feel in love so i had to ask for it for my birthday, its so fruity and sweet and just a beautiful scent. My mom managed to find a gift set with the body lotion and body wash to match which are also really lovely.


River Island light blue satchel. Me and my mom were browsing around river island and i saw this bag and i fell in love, its the perfect size and its such a beautiful colour, it has gold hard wear and a fake snake print in certain places. I also do remember it was quite cheap for a RI bag.


Ted Baker Light Pink Makeup Bag. I have seen loads of pictures of these makeup bags on instagram and they are just so beautiful, so when i went into the Ted Baker store and i saw it i fell in love and my auntie who was with me decided to get it for me for my birthday which was so lovely of her, thing is i don't want to use it and get it dirty, its currently sitting on my shelf on display and i may stay there for a while lol.
River Island Purse. I really wanted one of these big purses as i normally have the small little ones but there wasn't enough card holders in them and the coins always fell out so i thought i would ask for one of these bigger ones and my mom got me this lovely beige one.


Sanctuary Gift Set. My mom surprised me with these gift set and i love it so much, i have never tried any think from sanctuary so this is a great chance to. In it there is: a body scrub, body wash, facial cleanser, body butter, body scrubber brush thing, foot scraper thing, facial moituriser, foot scrub and a facial exfoliater. I have used a few of these things and they have been lovely so far.


Yankee Candle in Pink Sands. I love Yankee candles so much so i thought i would ask for one, i had this in a wax tart and i loved it so much so i thought i would ask for the big candle. I cant describe the scent but the website says; It's an exotic island escape in the beautiful mix of bright citrus, sweet florals and spicy vanilla.


These are a few other products i got; Boots foot cream, Nivea lotion, St Ives facial scrub, Nivea soft mosisturser and the Revlon nearly naked foundation which i love.


I got this really cute ring holder with a little owl on it, how cute is this.


Two Tops from Newlook, i was shopping with my mom and auntie and i noticed new look had a sale on so off course i had to go in, i saw these two really lovely tops and my auntie said she would get them me for my birthday which was lovely of her.

If you want to see what i wore on my birthday, take a look at this post My birthday OOTD and NOTD

So that is most of the things i got for my birthday, i hope you enjoyed this post, please comment and follow.

January and February Favorites // Makeup - Skincare

Hello everyone, so today i am doing a favorites post these are a few products that i have been using for both January and February and have been loving very much.


Make-up

Maybelline BROW drama sculpting mascara in dark brown
I brought this at clothes show live for £5 last year, i had wanted to try it for a while so i thought i would pick it up, and lets just say im glad i did. The brush is a bit weird and kind of big so this would be best for people with thick brows. This is great to use when you are in a rush in the morning and don't have time to take forever filling them in with a powder or a pencil. The colour is really good for me not orangey at all and it sets my brows in place all day.

Benefit high beam
I brought this quite a while ago and have been using it of and on since and using it in different ways, but i have recently found a way to wear it that i really like. I use it after foundation and concealer but before powder as it is a liquid product, i put a bit on the back of my hand and then take a brush and dab it on to my cheek bones, it makes me look really glowy and is very natural, when i have finished putting on my powder products i take what ever is left on the brush and dab a bit more on top of my blush.

Rimmel accelerator endless mascara 
Again a product i got at clothes show, it was in a set for £5 which is a bargain as this is more than £5 by itself. People have said that its meant to have fibers in it but i haven't noticed them, but this dose make my lashes look realllly long and full, its really easy to apply and the product makes your lashes look lovely.

Bourjois colour burst lip crayon in peach on the beach
This is a great product to use on those days when you are just wearing a bit of makeup but still want a pop of colour on your face, its really long lasting and actually stains the lips, its very glossy and moisturising and the colour looks lovely on the lips.


Skincare

Clinique all about eyes rich
I got given two samples of this from my aunt as she didn't want them and i ended up loving it a lot. Its very moistursing and i really like using it at night time, i use it before my moisturiser so it can really do its job by the eye area and doesn't have any night cream in the way. I really like this and i might be putting the full size on my birthday list depending on the price.

Lush charity pot hand and body lotion
My mom brought me this little pot for Christmas and i must say it is a lovely product. Its not greasy and moisturises you so well, i have only used it as a hand cream but i will try it after i have shaved my legs and if it doesn't sting my legs then the big size is going on my birthday list. When your in lush you should pick one of these up its only £1 and its a lovely product.

The body shop camomile sumptuous cleansing butter
Another product i got for Christmas, i asked for this as people are always going on about cleansing butters so i thought i would ask for a tub of this, its a hard product but once you take some out and warm it up in between your fingers, its turns in to a cream product, i put is straight onto a makeup full face and massage it in, its great as it lifts all the makeup and dirt of the skin ready to be washed away, once i have massaged it in i take a dampened cotton pad and wipe it of i don't use it to take my eye makeup of but i do go over my eyes to make sure everything of, i then wash my face in the shower to make sure everything it off. Its a bit oily but is doesn't leave a residue on the skin.

Therapeutics spot serum
This is just a small sample size that i got when i brought a face wash and sponge at clothes show last year. But as you only need a tiny bit im sure it will last a while. It smells minty and the skin tingles a little when you put it on so it feels like its actually doing something and its really nice, i wont buy the full size as its not overwhelmingly good but i do like it.

Clinique dramatically different moistusing lotion +
I got this sample for Christmas in a set and i ended loving it, its very light but very moisturising and is great under makeup. It smells a bit weird but i can get over that, i really love this and again depending on the price this might be going on my birthday list.

Small Beauty Haul

Hello everyone so yes i have another haul for you, i feel like i have been doing loads of these but oh well, i now you all like them.


Avon Advance Techniques Moroccan Argan oil, lightweight gloss spray, around £2.50
My mom said i could pick a few things from the Avon book so of course i couldn't say no so i chose this and another product. Now i actually got this product wrong i thought it was a treatment spray you spray in your hair when its damp, but when i got it i read it properly and released its actually a shine spray you use on dry hair so that's annoying. I haven't used this yet so i don't know if its any good.

Garnier intensive 7 days soothing lotion, superdrug £2.99
This is my favorite body lotion because its smells nice and its okay for me to use on my very sensitive legs.

Avon skin so soft dry oil body spray, around £2.50
So this is the other product i chose from Avon. When i was looking through the book this caught my attention because its something different. I have used it ounce and it was okay it smelt nice and it felt nice on the skin, but i need to use it a few more times before i can give you my full opinion on it.


Barry M nail polish in Princess, superdrug, £3.99 3 for 2 offer.
I really wanted some new nail polish so of course i went straight to the Barry M stand. This one caught my eye straight away because it is so beautiful, its a pink based glitter with bits if gold glitter in it. I have already used it and i loved it so much and it actually wasn't to bad to get off.

Rimmel match perfection foundation in 010 light porcelain, superdrug £6.99 3 for 3 offer.
This is the main thing i went in to the shop for, as i have this in the shade 100 and its to dark so i thought i would pick up the lightest colour, but its actually to light so i have to mix the two shades together to get the perfect shade. This is my favorite foundation and if you guys haven't tried it you really should.

Barry M nail polish in Guava, superdrug, £3.99 3 for 2 offer.
Surprisingly i don't actually own any of these gelly hi shine polish's :o, but i had seen this one loads of times and i really liked it so i thought i would pick it up, i haven't actually used it yet but im really excited to.


Waxxxpress ultra violet hot wax (free) (there website http://www.waxxxpress.com/ )
Two lovely ladies from this brand come to my college to talk to us about all of the products they sell, and they showed us a few waxing demos and told us about there experience in the beauty industry. This brand is meant to be one of the best waxing brands in well as they said the whole world, so of course i had to take advantage of the free pot of wax i could get, they were using this one when they came and it looked really nice and as it was shimmery purple and smelt really nice.

Epilcare depilatory ready to use wax strips for face and bikini, bodycare around £1
I was really annoyed because i had all of these little blond hairs in between my brows and as i don't do waxing at college anymore i thought i would buy these. I used them and i must say for the price they actually do a really good job.

Seventeen Cosmetics Makeup Review

So today i have another cheap drugstore brand review for you and today's brand is seventeen. Seventeen can only be found in boots and is fairly cheap. Since i have brought any think from the brand they have had a little bit of a revamp, they used to be called 17 and now they have changed it to Seventeen, so only a small change, but some of my products might look a little bit different to the products in store.


Eyeliners
Pencil eyeliners - The top one is black and the bottom one is purple. Both of these are very pigmented and creamy, they are great for the lash line but not so great for the waterline. I actually don't use these much any more, but i remember them been very nice pencils and i think they are only like £2.99 which is great.

Glitter liquid liners - I got these in a Christmas set years ago and i have never really used them, but for glitter liners they are actually very pigmented and stay on for a long time. I think there was some others in the set as well but i think i got rid of them.


Eye shadow
The eye shadows are all very pigmented but can be a bit powdery. I got all of these ages ago so i don't think they are available any more apart from maybe the single eye shadows. I don't really use this much anymore but i can tell you they are very nice but since the brand has been revamped they might be a bit better.


Nail polish 
The nail polish has got to be my favorite thing that seventeen do, they are very pigmented and the brush is really nice. The three on the top are from a Christmas set but the other four you can get in boots. I have two fast finish polishes one is a red which is called knock out red and a bluey green duo-crome in the shade sulk.
I also have two lasting fix polishes, a purple one called Chateaux and a shimmery coral colour called Tropical Island. I really like these nail polishes and at only £2,99 they are a bargain.

Seventeen also do a lot of other products like blushers, foundations, concealers, mascaras and a lot more which are all meant to be very good. I would say that this brand would be good for any teenagers or any one who is just starting out in makeup and want to try some decent stuff.

Beauty Would you Rather tag.




1. Would you rather lose all your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks and lip glosses or all of your pallets and eye shadows ?
Defiantly i would lose all of my pallets and eye shadows, only because i couldn't live with out mascara and eyeliner. I do love my powder eye shadows but i could make do with cream eye shadows and pencil eye shadows.

2. Would you rather chop off all of your hair or never have it cut again ?
Never have it cut again, i just could not have short hair i now i will hate it, and my hair is in pretty good condition so my ends aren't to bad so my hair wont look really dead and lifeless.

3. Would you rather have a coral or a pink cheek ?
A pink cheek, i prefer pink blush to coral as i think it looks better on me.

4. If you had £1000 to spend. would you rather spend it on clothes or makeup ?
I do love clothes but i think im going to have to say beauty, i am a beauty addict and im a beauty therapist so i could get some really cool stuff.

5.  Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner or eyeliner as lipstick ?
Well neither really but it would depend on the colour, but i think i will choose lipstick as eyeliner, only because you could use a dark purple colour on your lash line and it wouldn't look as bad as black lips.

6. Would you rather only shop in Sephora or MAC ?
Well we don't have Sephora in England but if we did i would choose Sephora only because it has a lot more brands and more choice.

7. Would you rather only use one eye shadow or one lip colour for the rest of your life ?
One eye shadow, only because one lip colour will get really boring and and one eye shadow wont look too bad and you could even make it darker or smoker with some eyeliner.

8. Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter ?
Hmm well our English summers aren't the best, so probably winter clothes in summer.

9. Would you rather wear dark or bright nail polish all year round ?
Bright nail polish, every one loves a good bright nail polish.

10. Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or eye product ?
Lip product, only because there are so many other colours out there and in my collection. And good eye products are hard to find.

11. Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a pony tail or a messy bun ?
A messy bun because they look different every time and pony tails are kind of boring.

12. Would you rather never use nail polish or lip gloss again ?
Lip gloss of course, i could not live with out nail polish my hands would look so boring.

13. Would you rather have no eyebrows or fill them in with a sharpie everyday ?
Oh my, well no eyebrows will look stupid but so would really dark eyebrows unless there is a light brown sharpie, ermm i think fill them in with a sharpie.

14. Would you rather live with out makeup or nail polish?
I could not live with out makeup so 100% nail poilsh.

The other day i put up a whats in my college bag post (here) and i said i was going to do a post about whats in my makeup bag, so here it is.
My makeup bag its self i think is from Debenhams years ago, its a really good size and i can fit every think i need in it. I have some Anti-Bac hand gel from primark because you never now when you need to clean your hands, a mirror, Vaseline and Carmex lip balm as i have very dry lips. The real techniques buffing brush to buff in my collection lasting perfection concealer, i only take these so i can put some makeup back on after i have had it taken off from a facial treatment. A nail file, my eyebrow brush, the collection work the colour eyeshadow pencil that i use in my water line, a vaporizer which has lady gaga perfume in it and my eyebrow comb. I have some Kleenex shine absorbing sheets which i actually don't use so i have no idea why they are still in here. My urban decay naked basics pallet, which i love as it has every think i need in it, i use w.o.s to set any concealer and i use naked 2 for my brows and as a contour, and i also have it if want to put any eye shadow on. My NARS blush in orgasm, my eyelash curlers, the rituals mascara and whatever lipstick i am wearing that day today is a revlon lip butter.
So that is what i have in my makeup bag, most of the time i also have a load of hair grips and some hair bobbles but i toke them out a few days ago.

Haul: Superdrug, Boots, Lush and eBay


Lush Creamy Candy Bubble Bar £2.50 
I really wanted some new things from lush as i haven't actually tried that many products from them. I decided to buy a bubble bar as at home we don't really have any nice bath products. I thought this smelt really nice and looked really pretty so i decided to get it, and it was a really good price at £2.50 as most of lush's stuff is normally quite expensive.

Lush Bubble Gum Lip Scrub £5.50
I used to make my own lip scrubs but i always see people going on about how good these are so i decided to pick one up. I couldn't choose between this one and the mint one but i choose the bubblegum one in the end because i really like the sweet smell, i have used it a few times and its really nice but its very different to the ones i used to make.

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipsticks in Funtime fuchsia and Notting hill nude eBay £2.98 each
(Pictured in college at the top, i had to take the big pic down as it was blurry)
I think these have recently been reformulated so at the moment they are all over eBay for like £2-3. I have heard some people say that notting hill nude is good for pale people so of course i had to pick it up, i have used it a few times and it actually is very nice. Essie button loves the shade Funtime fuchsia and it looked really nice on the blog post she did about it so i decided to get it, i have used it a few times and its lovely i was expecting it to be a bit darker but it still lovey and its very pigmented.

Professional Cosmetics Stipple makeup brush, eBay £1.99 
I have always wanted to try some more versions of the real technique brushes but they are kind of expensive, so the other day when i was looking at the brushes on eBay i saw these and i thought i would order a few, and i must say they are lovely, they are very soft and good quality, they are from Hong Kong so they do take a while to get here but believe me they are worth it.


Nivea daily essentials rich moisturising day cream, Superdrug £3.00
This is my every day moisturiser and i love it so much, its great if u have dry skin as it is so moisturising, it literally saved my skin last winter. Its only cheap and it is a staple for me, if you have dry skin you should give it ago.

Clean and Clear deep action cream wash, superdrug £1.99
I recently started micro-dermabrasion at college so i had to stop using my exfoliating products so i decided to pick up a new face wash. I really like clean and clear products so i thought i would give this ago i haven't actually started using this yet as i have been using the other one i brought.

Clearasil Daily clear vitamins and extracts wash and mask, boots £2.99
When i was in boots i saw that these clearasil products were on offer so i decided to pick some up, i have been using this every day and i have been really loving it. After i have taken my makeup off i get in the shower and wash my face with this. It makes my face feel nice and clean and i think it might of helped clear up my spots a little. I really like that it is also a mask so I'm almost getting more for my money.

Clearasil daily clear superfruits refreshing pads, boots £1.99
When i saw these i was very intrigued so i picked them up and decided to give them ago. When reading it i didn't see the part were it said they are exfoliating so that's annoying. But they are still nice, they smell amazing just like apples but very strong. I have used them on my nose when it was feeling a bit ruff and they did a brilliant job.

Top 5 Makeup Products Under £5

Hello everyone so today i am going to be showing you my top 5 makeup products under £5 i hope you enjoy.




Collection Lock and Hold lip gloss in Body Pop
This is such a lovely lip gloss, its not sticky at all and it is a beautiful colour. Its a light baby pink colour with blue under tones and it has no shimmer in it. It looks really nice over a lot of lipsticks and even by its self. For £2.99 these lip glosses are lovely, i think there is five other shades and i really need to pick them up.

Collection Work the Colour eye shadow pencil in Hot Chocolate
You guys should now by now how much i love these bad boys especially this colour. I have three of the six shades and i must say they are lovely, they are very pigmented and creamy and last a very long time. They are nice all over the lid but they can go a little patchy, but after a few coats and some eye shadow over the top they look fine. For £3.19 they are a bargain and they are a good dupe for the NYX jumbo eye pencils, if you haven't already tried these you have to. I have done a full review of these here

MUA single eye shadows
I have a few of these and they are all lovely especially this brown one in pearl shade 11. They have two different types pearl which are shimmery and matte which are obviously matte, i have only tried the pearl ones so i cant tell you any think about the matte ones. They are very pigmented and very creamy, they can be a little powdery but i can live with that. For £1 these are amazing and if you haven't tried any you have to.

MUA Undress your skin Shimmer Highlighter
Highlighters are a product that the drugstore dosent really have many of, so when i saw this come out a few months ago i had to pick it up and lets just say im glad i did. The packaging has broken which is very annoying but i can live with it. It is 100% a highlighter for pale skin so if you have darker skin i would stay away from this. It is a pink highlighter with a hint of blue shimmer in it (so its a blue toned pink). Its very pigmented and looks lovely on the cheeks. As you can see they product its self looks very expensive as it has a wave texture to it (like the MAC ones) and it is only £3. If you have pale skin you should get this.

Maybelline colour tattoo
I'm sure almost everyone has one of these, they are such a lovely product. They are very creamy and go on to the lid like a dream. They last a very long time especially when your wearing a primer and eye shadow over the top. This colour is pink gold and its actually the only colour tattoo i have and now i have tried it i want more. For £4.99 they are a bargain and eBay do a few of them for even cheaper (which is were i got mine). If you haven't tried these were have you been.

Whats your favorite product under £5 ??

Collection Cosmetics Review

Hello everyone so this is another post reviewing some products from cheap drugstore brands, today i am reviewing the very well known Collection, there products are very cheap i don't think there is any think over £10 (i maybe wrong).


Eye Pencil products 

Work the Colour Eye Shadow pencils (review)
These are pretty new to the brand and i must say they are very good, very creamy and very bendable. They are water proof so the stay in the waterline all day. They can be a little patchy if you put them all over the lid but once u you have put a few layers on and you have an eye shadow over the top they are lovely. I have reviewed these if you would like to know more.

Intense colour super soft kohl 
I used to use this all of the time, but then i found gel liner and then i found the brown work the colour eye shadow pencil. But this is very creamy and very pigmented, it goes on very smoothly but it does smudge if you put it in the water line. This very lovely and if you are looking for a good eyeliner i 100% recommend this.


Eye shadow, mascara and concealer

Skyscraper mascara
(i think it has a new name). I actually got this from poundland a while ago because i thought was a bargain and i thought i would just give it ago, i used to use it lot but i actually haven't used it in a while now. I don't think its the best mascara in the world but its okay, i would say its more of a lengthening mascara than a volumising one. It has an interesting brush, its plastic and it has shorter bristles on one side then on the other side they are longer (picture).

Colour intense trio eye shadow pallet
I got a pack of two of these from poundlad ages ago and i thought they were really good so i decided to get another which was from fragrancedirect.com. They are very pigmented but they are very powdery. They all have lovely colours and i really enjoy using them. The packaging is very cheap looking but i can get over that. I don't think they sell these in store any more.

Lasting perfection concealer
This is probably collections most famous product, i bet almost every beauty blogger/vlogger has this or has tried it. It gets so much hype online, and i must say i do go along with the hype. It a very high coverage concealer but can go a bit cakey. I would say its best to put this on spots and redness and not under your eyes as it can crease and go very cakey there.



Lip products

Lock and Hold Lip gloss
I love this lip gloss, its a beautiful blue toned barbie pink colour that is very pigmented and very glossy, its not sticky at all which is a bonus. They only have four colours of this lip gloss and the other ones aren't that nice, i would say this and the nude one are the only nice colours, im just not drawn to the other ones.

Cream Puff moisturising lip cream
The first thing i must say about this is that it is not at all moisturisng, its very creamy as soon as you put it on, but by the time it has dried, your lips feel so dry and almost hard. There not that long lasting i would say around 2-3 hours. Again like the lip gloss these only come in four shades and these two are the brightest the other two are nude colours.

Pure Gloss lip gloss
I brought this years ago and i think they have repackaged and reformulated them. This is a pink colour with shimmer and a bit of glitter in it. I actually don't really use this so i cant really tell you any more about it.


Nail polish

Hot looks fast dry nail polish
These are only like £1.99 and that's really good for these as they are very good. They have a very good size brush you can do your whole nail in about two swipes and your little finger in one. I have these two really lovely colours and i think i might have to get a few more ( they have changed the packaging)

Fashion and Beauty Haul / Superdrug, Primark and more


Rimmel i <3 Lasting Finish Nail Polish in 405 Loafer Love for You, Superdrug £1.99 (offer)
I really wanted a new nail polish so when i saw the Rimmel ones on offer i thought i would have a look, this colour caught my eye i don't have one like it and i think its really lovely. Its very pigmented and goes on the nails like a dream

MUA Colour Blast eye Shadow Tint in Tint-A Girl Like Me, Superdrug £3
I am really loving these eyes shadow pencils recently, so when i saw MUA had brought some out of course i had to check them out. All the colours are very lovely and it took me a while to choose one, but in the end i picked up this one. Its a lovely goldy bronzy colour, its not the most pigmented or creamy but its still really lovely, i think the darker colours maybe better.

Rimmel Wake Me up Instant Radiance Shimmer touch in 002 Radiant Rose, poundland £1
When i saw this in poundland i was shocked and i was like this is mine and i ran away (slight over exaggeration) i did look to see if there was any more but this was the last one left so i snapped it up. I have used it a few times and i really like it, its a lovely dusky pink colour with a lot of shimmer in it. It looks really lovely on the cheeks and for £1 it was definitely worth it.

MUA One direction Kiss you Lipstick in Rock Me, Superdrug £3 
Lots of people have been saying how good these are so i thought i would pick one up and give it ago. I have used it a lot and i really love it, its a lovely pinky purply colour, that is kind of matte but has very fine shimmer in it, it also lasts a long time on the lips. I would definitely recommend these to you guys.

Quick fix facials Calming clay Mask for red and Sensitive skin, Boots around £3 on offer
When i saw these face masks in boots i was very intrigued i had never seen them before nor have i seen anyone talk about them online. So i thought i would pick one up and give it ago. I have used it once and it was okay i didn't see a massive difference in my skin but it did make it feel nice and soft. You don't need much just a thin layer because other wise it will make your face feel a bit tingly. These are lovely and i recommend you give them ago.

Maybelline 24hr colour tattoo in pink gold, eBay £3.84
I saw some one make a blog post on bargain beauty buys from eBay and this was one so i thought i would order it. I actually don't own a colour tattoo so when i saw this was slightly cheaper than boots and superdrug i thought i would try it and i must say it is very nice, its very creamy and lasts along time. I really like this and i want to try some others








River Island molly jeggings £35
I had to fold them in half so i could get them in shot obviously they are full length. I love these jeans they are so comfy and very soft, i also like that they are mid rise so they flatten out my stomach a little. I already have a pair in black and i really wanted a light blue colour. 


Black quilted top with a silver chain on the pocket, Primark £6
When i saw this i new i had to have as it was so lovely its very soft and it will be nice and warm for winter, it was only £6 and i think that is a steal for such a lovely top.
I also brought another top from primark but i deleted the picture :( it is a lovely raglan top with floral sleeves and a dark gray body for only £4.
I also got a pack of black socks for £2.50, some of those frilly socks that everyone has been buying and a pack of above the knuckle rings for £1.50.

The Lipstick Tag



1. How many lipsticks do you own ?
18, now compared to lots of other people 18 is actually not that many but i think its about the right amount, i wear every shade and i love them all, and i don't think i own any two lipsticks that are the same shade.

2. What was your first ever lipstick ?
The first ever lipstick that i brought was MUA shade 4, i brought this years ago and i used every single day, i don't have it any more as i used it all up. It was a light pink colour but i was very sheer so i could get away with it at school.

3. What is your favorite brand for lipsticks ?
I don't really have one but i really like Revlon and Rimmel, they aren't to expensive and they have very lovely shades.

4. What is your most worn lipstick ?
My most worn lipstick is the Revlon lip butter in strawberry shortcake, i wouldn't say it was my all time fave but its the one that is the most far down in the bullet.


5. What is your favorite lipstick finish ?
I really like just normal cream finish, im not fond on glittery or overly shimmery lipsticks, i like matte but not when there overly drying, the Rimmel Kate matte lipsticks are great.

6. What was the last lip product you brought ?
The last product i brought was the MUA one direction lipstick in Rock Me which is Louis' lipstick, its a lovely purple colour and it lasts a really long time on the lips.


7. How many lip products do you currently have in your bag ?
Four, the two lip products i am wearing today and two lip balms.

8. How do you store your lip products ?
I keep all of my lip sticks and lip glosses in this old glossy box box, it fits them all perfectly and i have room to grow my collection.


9. What lipstick do you use to rock a red lip ?
Red lipstick actually doesn't suit me so i don't wear it even though i have about 5 red lips product.

10. What lip product are you currently lusting after ?
I wouldn't mind trying one of the Maybelline baby lips, im not like really urgent to try one i wont be rushing out to get one but i wouldn't mind trying one. But other than that there is nothing else i really want to try.

So that's the lipstick tag i hope you enjoyed reading this post and if you want to do it feel free to as i tag you all.

August Favorites - 2013






Estee Lauder Take it away Total Makeup Remover
My mom gave this to me a few years ago from a Estee Lauder set she got at Christmas, i used it a few times but i didn't really think much of it and i didn't really know how to use it. But a few weeks ago i was looking through my draw and i thought i would use it, manly just to use it up and get it out of the draw. But i have actually really been enjoying using it this month, and i think it is a very good product. I take a big blob on my fingers and massage it in to a makeup full face, then i take a face brush (pictured) and use that to help exfoliate and make sure all my makeup has been lifted, then i take a dampened Kleenex facial cloth and take all my makeup off and its been doing an amazing job. And even though i started using it to use it up, now that it has almost finished i don't want it to end as the full size its like £21 which i will not pay for.

Face secrets professional facial cleansing brush link
I brought this ages ago from sally's for like £2 and didn't really use it, but i thought i would use it with the Estee Lauder makeup remover and it has been doing a really good job and i have really been enjoying using it. Its very soft but if you use it for to long on one place it will start to hurt a little. For the price i payed i think this is a really good product and i love using it.

Eco tools Bamboo Kabuki brush link
I had this for my birthday years ago and i didn't really think much of it because it gives a sheer finish and that's not what i wanted. But i have recently been using it with my bronzer and it has been giving me a lovely finish. The handle is made from bamboo and the bristles are 100% curetly free. These brushes are very good and i really want to try more.

Collection work the colour eye shadow pencil in hot chocolate
I brought this at the start of the month and every day that i have been wearing makeup i have been wearing this. I use this on my lower lash line and in the first half of the water line and it stays there all day. Its a brilliant product and i love it i have it in three shades and they are all amazing. If you would like to know more about this product i have a full review on it here.

E.L.F eyelid primer in sheer
I had wanted to try a new primer so i ordered this from eBay as lots of people have been saying how good it is and i can agree with them. It is a brilliant dupe for the Urban Decay primer potion, the consistency is the same but it doesn't last quite as long as the UDPP. This is a great product and if you are looking for a good primer then i 100% recommend this one.

Also this month on my instagram i am posting every day, i am taking part in the super gorgeous September photo a day challenge, so if that interests you make sure you follow my account, my name is beautycallls.
