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.
Recently I’ve been on bit of a health kick trying to get back into my gym routine, and carrying on with my weight-loss mission. I’m carrying on with my Weight Watchers plan and trying to eat a lot healthier and exercise more, but this then led me to think about looking after myself from the inside too….
I’ve seen this new Batiste dry shampoo raved about recently between you bloggers and I thought I’d give it ago myself, because well who doesn’t love hair with more volume? I’m constantly trying different products and techniques with my hair to give it more volume, so I thought why not try out this dry…
Okay so I lied, I couldn’t stay away from buying more nail varnish. I was weak and visited a Boots counter, discovering there was a 3 for 2 offer, so this is what I came out with… From Left to right: Rimmel London ‘Disco Ball’, Rimmel London ‘Sky High’, and Rimmel London ‘Matte Finish’. …
Recently I’ve been trying to get a little more adventurous with my nail art. If you look through my nail art posts you’ll see the majority are just some form of leopard print, nothing too creative. When it comes to nail art I’m bit a newbie, and some of the extravagant designs are a little scary to attempt. Back in the #JulyLondonMeetUp goody…
Now that we’ve been thrown into the autumn and winter months I like to pick out darker colours for my nails. Gone are the light pastel shades to be replaced with darker reds, blues, and blacks. One of my favourite colours for the darker months is Models Own Thunder and Lightening. Normally I wouldn’t go…
It’s only been in the last year that I’ve really got into perfume. In the past I used to maybe get a gift set for my birthday or Christmas, and that would keep me going until I got the next gift set. Before that I used to live off Charlie or So…? body sprays in…
