My make-up collection


Here's a crappy photo of my make-up vanity! I finally tidied it up. It'll just be a brief description of what i have where.


 The top left of my vanity table; a pretty pink cup and saucer! A small organiser with glosses, eyebrow stuff and random things.


 The right hand side; my brushes and palettes stored in things from paperchase.


Inside le left hand draw; foundations and concealers at the front, powders and primers behind. Lipsticks at the front with pencils and more face powder behind.


Le right draw; closest are liners and mascara's. The front of the draw are some mac eye products, other eyeshadows etc. Behind that are blushes, mainly mac, benefit and dior as well as bronzers. Then behind that are small eye shadow palettes and some singles. Behind that is a small bag of blushes and a pair of false lashes.


And there's more! All the stuff in the draws is what i use most often (if at all). All this stuff is the rest of my make-up that hasn't really found a home and will occasionally see the sun. I use art boxes for storage and then i have smaller bags for all my 'leftovers'. And then i have a bag of samples. I like to keep stuff to try out or have it ready incase i stay away from home.


And finally, i just had to share my mac lipsticks as they are SO PRETTY!!!!!

Something new....


 La roche posay! This is a new to my night time cleansing routine. I have already used up my clarins cleansing water and wanted to try another that was a little kinder on my purse. La roche posay is a french brand that you can find in selected boots stores. I think i am liking it more than the clarins one as it did make me break out a little. And it's £11 for 200ml. This one is for sensitive skin, use with cotton pads. If you really concentrate on the smell, it's like sweets. Yummers.


Another new, i have finished my book. I actually really enjoyed it and it was really girly and i could relate to it and when i finished it i found out there's going to be a sequel soon! I've also been enjoying my candied ginger body butter from the body shop. This was a limited edition one i got way over a year ago but it smells great and i still feel in a festive mood and am craving spicy and sweet. And finally i bought a new face mask. It's super facialist by Una Brennan. This one is rose hydrate, intense moisture mask. It smells wonderful and feels really refreshing on my skin, it stays moist which is always a plus. I hate it when masks dry and crack. It was £8 and just as good as masks i have paid £20+ for.


Also, i need to sort through my make-up vanity. Would you just look at this mess!? I will be cleaning/re-organising this mess soon and will show you my collllllection :)

Feeling fruity!



Hooray for weeks off of work! I love painting my nails and since we're not allowed to wear nail varnish at work i decided to go a bit mad now i have the time. I've always loved chunky nail accessories and i've never seen anything like this before so i bought into it. I bought some fimo sticks from ebay, which is what these bad boys are on my nails. You can buy them already sliced or slice them yourself (which i decided to do as they can be as chunky as you like). I have these fruity ones and i bought one with the chanel logo on it! I only own one chanel nail varnish but what the heck.

These fruity one's look great with a red/orange base. I thought black would make them stand out more. They look better in person...... promise! x
