Empties #59

This month's empties focuses solely on makeup items!

All About Lips #147

The Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick is by no means new. In fact, they have been around for a while. I've been wanting to try one for ages but just never got round to it. When I saw that during Christmas they had them out in minis, I knew I wanted to get one!

Empties #32

I am long overdue an empties post and it is actually really hard for me to do these properly since I'm working in one place and I go home once in a while. So essentially I am collecting items in two locations and I would rather not be hauling thrash around.

FOTD

Sometimes people blog about how it takes 5 products to get ready, but today let's look at the mess created just to get ready for a wedding.

Empties #30

I could not possibly fit all my skincare empties into one photo because I actually skipped last month due to a hectic schedule and so this month you're in for a massive treat! I have a pretty massive pile and needed to do recycling before I travelled and so here we are!

Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara

A cult classic, many people love the original Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara which comes in a beautiful pink tube. I must say that the new waterproof version has a more kick ass packaging which called out to me!

Not only is it a very pretty green ( I don't even like green) it has little textured water droplets all over the mascara tube, so cool.

Too Faced Mascara Melt Off Cleansing Oil Waterproof Mascara Dissolver

Too Faced Mascara Melt Off Cleansing Oil Waterproof Mascara Dissolver

I was lucky enough to have gotten a sample of the Too Faced Mascara Melt Off Cleansing Oil Waterproof Mascara Dissolver, which is really the longest name ever. It is such a tongue twister! Like a good beauty blogger, I put it through the tests and I am pleased to be able to tell you that it delivers!

All About Lips #126 - Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick in Bend and Snap!

Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick in Bend and Snap!

The Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick in Bend and Snap! is a stunning berry colour which is everything I love.

The new Too Faced make up

I decided to treat myself and try out the new Too Faced make up that has just launched.

Empties #29

Another month, another empties, I actually decided against using the biggest pile as the picture and went with the smallest pile just for a change!

Did someone say Sephora?

I don't even know what brought it on but I came out of Sephora with 4 items and it felt like a real splurge.

Tarte Energy Noir Eye & Cheek Palette

My sister asked me to pick my own Christmas present, and this was what I have had my eye on for a while. I initially wanted to pick up the Too Faced Grand Palais Christmas set, but it was rather overwhelming in size and just sheer amount of products, that I though I would be better off picking something that I can tote around.

Too Faced Born This Way Foundation

A Medium-Full Coverage Foundation was something I needed for some of my evening events and I caved because this was recommended by the lovely lady at Sephora, The Gardens and it was one which had so many rave reviews from bloggers and youtubers, so into my basket it went.

Sephora Haul - Christmas presents for myself

Let's face it, a Sephora haul can only ever mean trouble ahead (or an interesting haul for the rest of you).

Why I use TWO bronzers

I will be honest,when I first purchased this Jouer mattifying powder bronzer in sunswept, I was worried about how warm it was. Read about the haul HERE.
This is really warm and orange to me.

but when the lady helped me put it on, I noticed that with a light hand, this actually suited me quite well. So why do I use two bronzers?

Today's face includes trying a brand new product!

 The products I used on my face today include these beauties!

May Favourites

An array of products have made it into this month's favourites and a few good trusty products are from the drugstore!

Guerlain Meteorites Powder in Medium

I just got this through the post and I paid £25 for this (including postage) because it is slightly used.
For someone who has always been unsure about this powder, I thought it was an incredible deal and I don't mind powders as most people use a brush with it. The seller had said she had used this two-three times. Although it was not in perfect condition when it arrived (through no fault of the seller as the little pearls would just move around under the puff) so some of the pearls are slightly cracked, but still beautiful!
