So a while a go I found myself in Boots swatching away at lipsticks when suddenly one of them caught my eye. It was the perfect deep pinky lavandery shade, without any shimmer or frost. It just stood out to me from all the other lipstick shades on my hand, Rimmel London’s Vintage Pink, I had to have it.
Now the poor student in me started to think, do I REALLY need another lipstick? So I put the lipstick back and carried on with the rest of my day. As I carried on walking around town I kept looking longingly at the back of my hand at the beautiful shade, and so I went back to Boots and bought it. Finally we were together the shade I’ve been searching my whole life for (okay slightly over exaggerating, but you get the point).
So yes it’s love for me on this lipstick. As it’s from the Rimmel London Moisture Renew range, it glides on so well as well as keeping my lips from feeling dry. It’s also got a slight blue undertone to it, so it keeps your teeth looking white and shiny. I find it also stays on the lips for hours, and since buying this it’s been my lipstick of choice for nights out. I normally go for ‘play it safe’ colours when it comes to lipsticks, and although this one isn’t a very bold or bright colour, it’s unlike any of my others and quite a daring shade for me. And best part about this lipstick? It only cost me the bargain price of £6.29! I actually don’t think I’ve worn another lipstick since I bought this, certainly a new favourite.
Until about a month ago, I was a fake tan virgin. I’d never used the stuff and I was living in my pale little world. Since getting advice off all you lovely’s on Twitter I decided to give fake tan a go. Well I say fake tan, but I’ve only actually used gradual tanning moisturisers…
If you read my Christmas post you will have seen that my mum bought me Clinique’s Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion for Christmas. I’d never used it before but it’s something my mum swears by and has used for years, along with other Clinique products. As I suffer from very dry skin like my mum she thought this…
I’ve been thinking a lot about moving out lately, and especially how me and my other half have been together a very long time now and want to move on with our lives. We’re currently living with my parents, and to be honest we’re quite happy at the moment, we just don’t have a lot…
So who’s excited about the Jubilee? I’m suddenly feeling very British and patriotic. It inspired me into doing some Jubilee themed nail art. Sadly I’m working most of the time, at a job where I can’t wear nail polish (I haven’t painted my nails in 2 weeks, sniff), so instead I painted it on my nail…
I never really understood the concept behind Tangle Teezers. I mean at the end of the day its a brush, how can it be any better than any other hair brush? My friend Robyn was forever talking about them, in fact I think she loves them so much she owns three, so one day I decided to…
I love nothing more than a good pampering session. A good soak in the bath, hair mask, face mask, painting my nails, the works. There’s nothing better than when you have some good products to help you out when your in need of a good pamper. One of my new favourite things is Treacle Moon’s…
