Christmas Gifts... Less than a week to go!

Hi dolls! With less than a week I've got all my shopping done and presents wrapped.. yey! So I've been browsing the net and looking at somethings I'd like in the new year and fingers crossed they might even pop up in the SALES!

After seeing many bloggers use the site BeautySets to form wish list i thought id give it ago and made my NewYear Wishlist, so here it is...

As you can see I've gone for a Pink, Gold and Black theme..which actually wasn't intentional! I LOVEEE everything on this list so I only wish I'd asked for some before christmas, too late now ha but most of the things are pretty much 'new in' so I guess they'll be around for a while after the holidays for me to get my hands on. Hope you like my top 7 new year picks!

Happy Holidays..

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Review

I first saw this product reviewed on a lot of makeup blogs and really wanted to try it out for myself as I'm a sucker for following the trend! I went and picked up one in the color “Sweet Tart”, which is shown below, and absolutely lurrved it when I tried it on so I ended up going back the next day to buy two more colours.

Basically what this product is is a tinted lip balm in a tube. Revlon describes it as “Buttery Balm + Shiny Color.” I bought mine from Boots and at £7.99 it's a really good buy for the coming summer months!

Pros:

• Available in soo many colours (20 to be exact) 
• Smooth, lip balmy feel on your lips once applied (hence the lip butter name)
• Appears smooth and silky on your lips
• Applied easily and removed easily
• Adorable container
• Perfect for a bit of color that’s not like that of full-on, long lasting lipstick

Cons:

• Doesn’t last long on your lips so you need to reapply often

That con isn’t that bad considering most lip products are like that. I typically just wear it when I’m going out for a short while to give my lips a bit of colour.

I’ll give it a 4/5 only because I wish it lasted longer, but I guess that’s wishful thinking since it’s a lip butter.

Fruity nail art

Hey everyone I just thought id share a quick post about my new nail art I've been trying out at home today and I must admit Im pretty pleased with myself and the end results. So basically I saw this pic of a girl who had hot pink nails with fruit attached and I know it sound mental but it looked really good!! (trust me)

So I decided to give it ago because it was just such an amazing summer look.
Here's the end result...

Fruity!

I tried to place the fruit on at first and got a bit over excited and it just looked a mess so on this pic I pretty much tried to replicate the whole look that the girls had used as it was a lot easier to copy placing of the fruit but next time Im defiantly going to experiment with some different ideas. (i didn't want to waste all the fruit at once)

Where did I get the fruit I here you say?? Well I searched high and low and remember seeing thing like this o my recent trip to the US and they have all sorts in target and their supermarkets, sadly over here in  the UK, not so much. I finally found a pack on trusty old E-bay for around £1.50 from china (=

Heres the pack...

Sorry about the pic quality, took it on my rather old phone.

There is so much to chose form on e-bay I could have easily bought loads (i partially like the candy version!) so for such a cheap price it easy to have a play around and experiment. Enjoy!

Victoria Secret Credit Card!!!

Keeping it pink, oh how I wish these were available in the UK! For every girl having an amazingly fabulous everything, including your credit card, because I mean come on it does get used an awful lot! Why do they alway have to be so boring, making them bright colour would defiantly make it easier to find among all the crap that we keep in our purses and not to mention easier to spot on a night our instead of us scraping through our bags.

Anyway it looks like for us English girls the colour of our credit cards will just have to stay plain, old and boring. *sighhhh*

Pucker up

Thought I would do a quick post sharing the new lipstick iv just bought. Of course, it’s a MAC lipstick as I personally think they are the ultimate brand for a good quality. So i decided to try out the  ‘Impassioned’ lip colour and wow it is very vivid pink. It is also an amplified formula meaning the lipstick is really pigmented. Im kind of scared of bright lips so this was always going to be a test run for me but i must say i lurvvee it!!  I’ve tried a lot of pink lipsticks from various brands but this one is defiantly amazing and ticking all the boxes!


I bought this lipstick like a few month back and have only just found it and i think it was £12.00 but unfortunately the prices have increased and the lipsticks now cost £13.50. Although it is quite expensive, this lipsticks last me a LONG time ha If you don’t own anything from MAC and are wanting to try it out, I would definitely recommend a lipglss more than a stick as your first product.


Pucker Up!
