Mac Velvet Teddy



Mac's Velvet Teddy lipstick is a peachy, slightly brown/nude colour with a matte formulation. Despite the fact that it is matte I don't find it drying at all and it lasts a good time on the lips. This is a very everyday shade that could be worn with lots of different looks.

Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara


What drew me to this mascara in the first place is the gorgeous packaging but not only does it look great, it works great as well! The shape of the brush means it adds both volume and length to your lashes. The only problem with this mascara is that too much product comes out on the brush so if you don't scrape it off then it can make your lashes look clumpy. Other than that I love this mascara and its one of my favorites!
Have you tried this before?

Tangle Teaser


I have very fine hair that gets tangled so easily and can be really hard to brush through, so when I heard about the tangle teaser I thought I would give it a try. The first time I used this I couldn't believe how smoothly it went through my hair and got rid of all the tangles. I use this on wet and dry hair and it works brilliantly on both. This is really easy to hold so I don't mind that it doesn't even have a handle.

She's So Jetset!



Left-right: champagne please, gold card, pretty in mink, elegant espresso


For Christmas I received this benefit makeup kit that is perfect for creating a natural everyday look. The kit contains a mini Porefessional, 4 Eyshadows, a cheek colour, a mini lipgloss in "Life on the A List", a mini They're Real mascara and a mini blush and eyeshadow applicator. All of the products inside are great quality and I think I will be getting a lot of use out of this Kit!

Kissable Balm Stains



I have the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stain in the shade "Honey Douce" I find that this is a really nice everyday shade that is well pigmented and lasts a long time on my lips, the only thing with these balm stains is that they can be a bit drying but as long as you apply a lip balm before hand it should be fine!
Have you tried any of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable balm stains?

Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub


I love Soap and Glory so when they brought out a new "sugar crush" range I had to go and try it out. My favorite thing about this scrub it THE SMELL it is absolutely gorgeous, it smells to me like a lemon/lime slush! This scrub is also good at exfoliating and leaving the skin lovely and soft without having on oily residue. I often use this just on my hands followed by hand cream to make them super soft!
Have you tried anything from the "Sugar Crush" range? 
Does this look like something you would want to try?

Olay essentials moisturizing lotion

A few weeks ago I was sent the Olay essentials complete care multi-radiance moisturizing lotion to try out and since then I have been using it every single morning. It's a nice lightweight moisturizer that leaves the skin looking healthy and non-greasy, it also has SPF 15 inside which is great. This moisturizer smells gorgeous (like sunscreen) but hasn't upset my sensitive skin!
Will you be trying this out?

The perfect combination






I suffer from really dry lips,especially in the winter, so I use these two products together every night and it works wonders! The Lush lip scrub smells a-ma-zing and I use it to get rid of dead skin cells on my lips, I then moisturize them with the Nuxe Reve de Miel lip balm which leaves the lips looking healthy and hydrated.
Have you tried either of these Products?
What do you think of them?

Body Shop hand and nail cream

This body shop almond hand and nail cream is one of the best hand creams I have tried. It works wonders on my dry hands and sinks in quickly leaving a lovely smell of Cherry Bakewells! This hand cream also contains almond oil which is supposed to be perfect for keeping cuticles in good condition as well. I love the look of the packaging that this product comes in and it also means that you can get every last bit out!
Whats your favorite hand cream?

My first Sleek blush

I have recently been on the hunt for a new blusher and after hearing great things about Sleek I decided to try out one of their blushes in the shade "Pixie Pink"


This shade looks super pink and scary in the pan however when you apply it to your cheeks it just gives a nice flush of colour,of course you could always build it up to be more intense if you wished! Overall I am really happy with this blush, not only is it highly pigmented but they are also good value for money at only £4.49 each from their website. What do you think of sleek blushes? Have you tried any you would recommend?
