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.
As it’s a new year like most people, I’m trying to take better care of myself. Not only am I eating better, and trying to do more exercise, but I’m also trying to take better care of my skin. I often get in terrible habits of not washing my face properly, and just taking my makeup…

A couple of weeks ago I was contacted by the lovely Michele from Oh! Organics asking if I’d like to review some of her products. I’ve always been intrested in the idea of organic skin care so I jumped at the chance. I must admit that until recently I’ve been very lazy with my skin care. And…
So this week I started back at uni for my second term of my second year (its scary how quickly uni is going!). And starting back at uni means early mornings and lots and lots of work :(. As I’m a person who chooses sleep over anything, I find myself using the same makeup over…
So hello October, how quickly it’s got to this! This year is flying past. September’s been a crazy busy month for me, what with packing and moving back to uni (another post on that soon!). I’ve been so busy with the moving back to uni I haven’t managed to find a spot where I can…
I’ve been trying to take better care of my skin lately, taking the time to have a proper skincare routine, and making sure I cleanse properly. Since sticking religiously to a good skincare routine I’ve seen some great results, and I’m now a big cleanser fan. I’ve been trying out all sorts of cleansers to…
