April Favourites 2014






Hi ladies! 

It's time for my monthly favorites post and I've loved a lot of amazing products these last few months but here's a few I really want to talk about. 

The Body Shop Blue Corn 3 in 1 Deep Cleansing Mask - I used this product when I know my skin needs a deep clean, whether it's because I happened to sleep in my makeup after a night out or my skins is just feeling super awful. It's great for getting rid of flaky dry skin and gives me a super soft face! 

Sleek Brow Kit in Dark - I never really paid much attention to my brows, about a year ago I bought an MUA eyebrow pencil but never really liked it. Recently though I've decided that like filling in my brows and started using some eye shadow to do it. That then got me interested in brow products and after reading reviews after reviews I settled on the Sleek Brow Kit, as soon as I first tried it I knew It was love! I use it now in nearly every makeup look, whether its a dramatic brow or a more natural brow. Either way I love them :-) I definitely recommend this product!  

Urban Decay Naked 3 Eye Shadow Brush - This isn't my first Urban Decay Brush, I enjoy using the one I received with the Naked 1 palette but I really love this one in particular. I use it for both eye shadow and concealer. On one end you have a blending brush and on the other end you have a more smaller brush to use for precise application. 

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation - I've been using this foundation for awhile now, this is my second bottle. I love it because it's great for my dry skin, gives a lovely healthy look and a medium coverage depending on how you apply it. It's also a great colour match for me as it has a good colour range. 

Maybelline Falsies Mascara - For years I've used the Maybelline Colossal Mascara off and on, but I always heard how great the Falsies one was and when I got the chance to pick it up last month I did. I really love it, It's great. I still love the Colossal but for now I think I'll stick to this one. It's great for building up both volume and length. 

Rimmel Apocalips - Right now I only have the shades Nova and Big Bang but I'm hoping to get more :-) I absolutely adore these lip lacquers. They're so pigmented and smooth to go on. Big Bang is my favourite to use when I fancy a bright lip. I definitely suggest it to any red lipstick lovers out there. 

Roberto Cavalli EDP - I've loved this perfume since the moment I smelt it in store when It was released. It smells amazing and if you like white floral and/or oriental fragrances then I suggest trying this one out. 


So those are my favorites for this month! What were yours?

March Collective Haul - Sleek, N-SPA + More


Hullo Ladies!

Heres my recent collective haul that contains a mix of clothing, makeup and hair dye! Yay! 


I've been to ASDA frequently in the last month.

On my most recent trip I picked up the new Elle magazine that contains a free Percy and Reed Product called Wonder Balm. 

I picked up one of the Rimmel Apocolips in Big Bang and a hair bun.

I still can't for the life of me figure out how to do it though :-( 


I also ordered some sleek products from Amazon as well.

The Eye shadow palettes in Oh So Special, Vintage Romance and the Face Form palette in Fair :-) 


The eye shadow palettes are on offer and cost just £5.75 and the Face Form was also on offer and cost £7.19.



Also a few weeks ago I went food shopping to ASDA and noticed the clothing sale...Obviously....and picked up a few awesome things!

I picked up these two super cute jumpers.

I can't remember the exact price but I have a feeling I paid around £8 each for them :-) I love the blue one I thought It would look amazing for this Spring.


I also managed to find the best bargain of all and that was this amazing Skater dress for just £6, it was the last one and it was in my size. Fate. I'm wearing it to a family meal this weekend, it's gotten me so excited for the Summer! 


Whilst in ASDA I also noticed that the Hair Dyes were all on offer for 2 for £8 so I picked up a new red hair dye to try and because I seem to be in a slump lately with my hair and I keep wanting to do something drastic with it 



This was the other dye I picked up, just in case I was still fed up with the way it looked after I dyed it red :-)


So that's everything I've bought recently :-) 

What have you picked up lately and most importantly...what's your favourite Sleek Product? I'm obsessed   :-)

REVIEW - Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer - NOVA

Hullo Ladies!

I been bust the last few days and I've just not had any inspiration for posts. 

Hopefully that will change soon.



I just want to do a quick review on a products I'm really liking lately and it's one of the famous Rimmel Apocalips 




The only one I currently own at the moment is NOVA,  a gorgeous muted raspberry colour. 

I love paring it with a smokey eye because it's not too vibrant and in your face. Just a nice pop of colour to the lips.



The formulation is creamy and moisturising with amazing pigmentation.

The glossiness doesn't stick around for too long but the colour stays surprisingly well. 



The applicator is great and contains just enough products for one coat on your lips, it's great to layer to get a more vibrant colour but watch out as this likes to travel to the corners of your mouth if you have too much product on your lips!

I'm really enjoying this products and I'd definitely pick up more at some point.

 I love the look of Big Bang! 


Have you tried any of the Rimmel Apocalips?
