Would I recommend?
 




  • Excellent to apply, doesn't leave a 'cakey' finish- nice and natural looking.
  • Translucent powder so suitable for most skin tones. 
  • Would recommend using with powder brush rather than buffing pad it comes with. 
  • Helps keep oil at bay.
  • Still great even if you don't have an oily skin type.

Whoy Leggings

Hi Lovelies,

I come asking for a small favour. I've entered a contest through the store WHOY, you can design your own leggings and the 3 pairs with the top votes will be made and available for sale.
I'd really appreciate it if you could vote on any that you like (IF you like any) and if you really want to see them come to life, spread the word.
It's so easy to vote; you can sign up through facebook, twitter or with an email address and it literally takes about 5 seconds.

My friend has just won the first month of entries, with 2 of her designs being made, and I think it would be pretty cool if one of my creations could win also!

Just click on this link to go to my profile and check out  my designs!

Would I recommend?

RRP £3.99

  • Don't be fooled by the name; this is definitely a red nail polish as opposed to orange. 
  • Beautiful colour. 
  • Chips very easily if not worn with a top coat. 
  • Stains nails if not worn with a base coat.
  • Not quite the 'hi-shine' finish you would expect. 

Product Reviews


Hi Lovelies!

I'm back to beauty blogging (hoorah) at long last! I've found myself feeling pretty uninspired of late, and then I looked at a huge pile of beauty products I'd been storing up with the intention of blogging, but the time had been and gone.
This has led me to a new 'series' (if you will) of posts. I've got a lot of posts lined up, each reviewing an individual product. I know that when I'm looking into new products, I want to find quick, easy and honest reviews- I'm not interested in face of the days post or anything like that, I just want to know that the product is like.
All products will be compiled on an easy to find 'product review' list to make browsing a little easier.
I hope this is of some use to people, I've really enjoyed getting to know my new camera whilst taking a few snaps of products. I'm aiming to have these posts more photo heavy than text based, but as this a 'new' thing I'm trying; let me know if I'm missing out any useful details! 
The bulk of the review will be a rating system, but if I have a little something extra to say, of course it will go in there! 

The first one will be posted tonight, and I'll *try* and post about 2 a week.
Let me know what you think of this new idea!
