Lip Crayon Obsession


A while ago when lip crayons came out I wasn’t too sure about them. I was mainly a lipstick person, and didn’t really think much about lip crayons. Fast forward a few months, and now I’m obsessed.

It’s only really a matter of time until I have the whole of the Revlon range really…

    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…
