Lip Product Addict Tag ❤️

Hello! 

After watching a few of these tags online, I thought I would do my own!


1. Favourite Balm/Treatment

Mine would have to be Baby Lips in general. I find them very moisturising and I like that they add a tint to your lips without being too overpowering. They also smell amazing which definitely helps! This one is in the shade 'Peach Kiss'.


2. Best Eye-Catching Red

I actually don't own a red lipstick, so instead I will show you a deep berry shade that I love. NYC City Proof Twistable Lip Colour in the shade 'Gramercy Park Plum' is one I really enjoy using, these are not at all expensive and are very pigmented.


3. Best Luxury and Best Drugstore

My favourite slightly luxury lip product is a Urban Decay lipstick in 'Jilted' this is a very pretty deep pink/berry colour and it is also very long-lasting!


My favourite drugstore product would have to be the Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Sticks. My favourite one is 'Nudist'. As the name suggest it is a nude shade and is very glossy. I love these!


4. Best MAC Lipstick

This was very hard to pick as I love all of my MAC lipsticks, but I think my favourite would have to be the shade 'Crosswires' which is a creamsheen. This is a peachy pink and again is very pigmented and long-lasting like most MAC lipsticks.


5. The Most Disappointing

This may come as a shock but mine would be the Revlon Lip Butters. I have only tried one so this may be why. I find this one is very glittery and also runs out very fast as the bullet is very soft. I will possibly try another incase I am just not a fan of this particular shade which is 'Peach Parfait'.


6. Liner - Yes or No?

I would say yes as long as it is not too obvious! 

7. Best Gloss?

I love Tanya Burr's lip glosses. I think they are amazing quality and are almost more like a liquid lipstick as they are so pigmented and last a very long time. They also smell like strawberry laces! This shade is in 'Afternoon Tea'.



8. Something Extra

I recently purchased a Maybelline Colour Exilir in the shade 'Rose Redifined'. It lasted all day on me and I didn't even need to re-apply, I highly recommend these, they are amazing! 


Thankyou for reading!

Hello!

Today I am going to show you the colour I have on my nails at the moment.


I featured this item in my haul last week, this is a Barry M Silk polish in the shade 'Orchid'. It is a very pretty shimmery purple with darker purple hints in there too. It applied very smoothly, and I am loving it so far!




Thankyou for reading!

Mini Haul

Hello!

Today I went shopping with my friends and bought a few things, so I thought I would show you! 


The only thing I bought from topshop is a nail polish. The shade I bought is called 'with it' and is a very deep blue, I haven't actually seen many colours like this and thought it was quite unique. I love topshop nail polishes as they last quite long on my nails and they have an amazing selection of colours!



In boots I bought two barry m nail polishes, I bought one of the autumn shades for this year called 'paprika', this is quite a retro shade and again I think it is very unique. I also got a silk polish called 'orchid', this is a very pretty purple with darker purple shimmer. I ended up getting a barry m mascara as if you spent over £7 you could get a free mascara, I chose the 'showgirl extra volume black mascara', and I am looking forward to trying it!



Lastly I bought a furry purple jumper from H&M. I had noticed that last autumn/winter these were very popular, and they have made a return this year. It is so soft and I cannot wait to wear it!


Thankyou for reading this post, I am going to try my best and post every Friday, so I'll see you then!

September Favourites❤️

Today I am going to be writing about my favourites products/items from September. I honestly cannot believe it is October already, I feel like this year is flying by!


'An Abundance of Katherine's'- John Green

I have to say, I have only just started reading this book, but I wanted to include it in here as I am loving it so far! I won't give anything away but if you love 'The Fault in our Stars' you will most likely love this book too!


One Direction 'Our Moment' Perfume

This perfume has been out quite a while now, and they have had two more released since, but I love this one! I'm not going to try and describe the smell to you because I am so bad at describing scents, but trust me it smells amazing!


Strawberry Balmi

I love this lip balm a lot, and I definitely reccomend the 'balmi' range, they are very moisturising and smell so good!



Hoola and Bella Bamba - Benefit

I got these two products as samples from benefit at the start if the month and loved them! The samples are not too small either, these make me really want to go purchase the full size!



Collection Eyeshadow Pencil - 'Vanilla Sky'

I have owned this for quite a few months but have only recently started to use it and I really like it, it is very pigmented and I usually just apply it all over my lid and leave it, I am definelty interested in buying more shades.



Thankyou for reading, what have been your favourites in September?

Autumn Candles

Hello! 

Once again I apologise for not posting very often, I'm going to try and post more frequently.


I would say autumn is one of my favourite seasons, I love the hot drinks, warm jumpers and just the general cosiness (is that a word?!). So I am going to talk about three of my favourite candles for this time of year.

 

Vanilla Chai is one of my favourite scents from Yankee candle. I can't burn this candle for too long as it is quite strong, but it fills my room with such a lovely autumn scent.


This is another favourite candle of mine, as the name of it suggests, it is quite a cool berry scent, which I really like, it's also not too strong either. Another factor I like about this candle is the shape, I just think it looks very pretty in my room.





This last candle is from a local shop of mine, but I'm sure if you search it they will show up. This candle smells like apple crumble, which I love a lot! I also love the packaging, the little heart on the lid is so cute! I highly recommend these candles.

Thank-you for reading!

NOTD ❤️


Hello!

Today I thought I would write about the polish I have on my nails at the moment, Barry M's 'Mint Green'. I would say its a bit brighter than a mint green, but it's still very nice!


This colour lasts at least 4-5 days on my nails without chipping, which is a good amount of time as I like to paint my nails quite often!

Barry M is one of my favourite brands of nail polish as they have so many different colours and are very affordable!

Benefit-They're Real Liner ❤️




Hello!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! School has been really busy but now that it's almost the summer holidays, I will be able to post more often!

Today I picked up the new Benefit They're Real liner as it was launched today, I haven't tested it out too much yet but I'll tell you what I think of it!

The liner has a flexible tip which makes it very easy to apply, which is good for people like me who aren't great at applying eyeliner! Also it is a gel liner so it stays all day and it claims to 'hug your lashes' which I would say it does well! 

I also purchased the remover as this product is difficult to get off, it removes any waterproof liner or mascara, which is very useful!



The eyeliner retails for £18.50 and the remover is £14.50.

I would definitely recommend this liner, especially if you love the mascara! In my opinion it lives up to everything it claims to do, so I am very impressed and I love this liner so far!
