My Lipstick Collection - I Charlotte Tilbury l Mac l Soap and Glory l



I love purchasing a new lipstick every now and then. I have a very modest collection of lipsticks. I only really wear them on special occasions - I wish I was brave enough to wear my lipsticks more often...baby steps!

First up we have Mac Lickable which is a super hot pink in a creamsheen finish. It looks gorgeous and is a nice creamy texture. It has a slight glitter to it, but it's nothing a 90's girl can't handle.

Next is a gorgeous number from Charlotte Tilbury in the shade Amazing Grace in the matte revolution formula. My best friend brought me this, and she couldn't of picked a better shade! It's a really nice creamy matte formula, and the shade is a natural pinky red tone. I love this one for a subtle red lip, and the formula is comfortable to wear - I'm really interested in the shade Coachella Coral.

Then there are three offerings from Soap and Glory. I've talked about these before - but incase your new around these parts: Theres one satin in the colour 'The Missing Pink' which is a very natural your lips but better shade, and then two matte shades in 'blush pink' and 'pom pom'. Both are very comfortable to wear and are gorgeous colours for a great price. I noticed that Soap and Glory have a lot of new offerings in the lipstick department, new colours and new formulas.

Then I have the Kate Rimmel Lipstick in the shade 107 - a deep berry red. This formula is very unforgiving if you dry lips - but it is truley gorgeous for autumn!

Lastly is my beloved Topshop Lipstick in Beguilded. Another gorgeous berry toned red, but is a much more creamy formula.

Do you have any of these in your collection? Or do you recommend any that
I need to add?


What I'm lusting after

I've been in super saving mood, however I look at these items on a daily basis..lusting over; forever putting them in my basket..but never clicking 'checkout'
I certainly don't need these items in my life...but they'd certainly make me happier! Theres a few drugstore items that will probably be in my shopping back at the end of next month, and a few splurge items that I'll have to save up for!

Gold Accessories


As Summer is fast approaching there's nothing better than purchasing a few new pieces to liven up your outfit. I think gold accessories look gorgeous when you have a little tan going on and the suns out.

I have been after a pair of sandals for quite some time and was spoilt for choice in Primark. I was swaying between a brown suede gladiator style pair, and these rose gold beauties. I chose the rose gold option as they will work with any outfit, dresses, jeans and shorts. They're super comfy as you just slip them on with the elasticated sides, and a little tow piece in the middle. I think I will be purchasing the brown pair as they would look super cute when we go away to Bruges this summer for some site seeing. But I thought these pair would be perfect for evenings out. I don't really own any pretty flat shoes. for £6 they were a bargain, I'll certainly be after some more pairs before I head out on our trip.

After a quick mooch in Topshop and River Island I spotted some gorgeous jewellery pieces. I fell in love with this intricately detailed necklace from River Island for £5.00. It reminded me of a pair of earring I already own from the brand 'Orelia' which has some gorgeous delicate pieces but are quite pricey. I also spotted some gold tattoos from Orelia's stand in Topshop and decided to pick up a sheet. They're really beautiful and I cant wait to wear them. There were so many designs to choose from I might have to go back for some more!

I also picked up a new pair of sunglasses from Topshop. They're very similar to my current pair with a tortoise shell frame, but they're a lot larger and have different coloured arms. They really flattering and I absolutely love them. I find it hard to find glasses that suit my little face shape, so I'm always excited when I find something that suits me.

I've always been a sucker for bracelet layering. So over the past few months I've been picking up individual bracelets to layer on top of each other. My parents brought me a gorgeous Swarvoski Viktor & Rolf bangle, so that was my centre piece. I added a few from Urban Outfitters and River island and a cheap watch from Next to complete the set. I always loose watches so there's never any point buying something expensive.

April Favourites - 2015



Today I thought I'd do a monthly round-up of all the things I've been loving this month. This month has been surprisingly beautiful here in the UK and I can't believe how fast it's come around!

Favourite accessory:
Due to the gorgeous weather we've been receiving I've been loving my sunglasses from Topshop. They're a similar tortoise shell design to my other ones but have a sightly larger frame and coloured arms. I've also really enjoyed wearing gold jewellery and nude nails.
Favourite make up item:
I'm gonna have to go with the L'Oreal superstar mascara. I haven't stopped wearing it and I still love it as much as when I first tried it. I've also been loving a small amount of 'Rockateur' blush by Benefit to uplift the colour on my cheeks.
Favourite Nail Polish: 
It's got to be the sunset collection from Barry M. I've had these glossy nude nails on ever since I brought them. The finish is super glossy and professional looking, and the effects last a good amount of time.
Favourite Perfume:
I've been choosing the ever so summery scent of Juicy Couture Malibu. It instantly reminds of summer and I'm going to need a new bottle of this stuff soon!
Favourite TV: 
We've just finished the first season of Daredevil from Netflix. If you enjoy Marvel films then you'll enjoy this series, It's quite dark and crime orientated but I can't wait for the next season!
Favourite food:
Pita bread and dips. If I was moved into my new house with a garden, I'm sure my answer would have been barbecues...dammit.
Favourite moment:
A little trip to Dovedale in the peak district. I've been begging Lee to go for years after our failed attempt about 3 years ago (involving a months worth of rain and an iphone.) And with the decent weather we had been having we managed to get there and finish the walk. I love the views and the scenery; it feels like another world.

Blushers | Part 1

Cute polka dot packaging
In this mini series I want to write and review all of my blushers. I hands down LOVE blushers. I don't own anything overly high end because I think there are some great high street finds out there! However I'm always lusting over Benefit 'box o blushers', but can't bring myself round to paying £23 for a cardboard box? Anyway....

Today I'm going to be talking about the brand Topshop beauty.

I currently own two blushers from their collection and I have to say I'm more than impressed!

Firstly the packaging is cute and compact with white spots all over the top, and a nice rounded shape. As well as a small mirror on the inside and 4 grams worth of product.

Left - 'Dream Phone'
Right - 'Do It Again'
The first one is 'Do It Again' which is a shimmery peach colour, almost looks like a dupe for Benefits 'Coralista' it brings a beautiful natural glow to the skin without making you look like a tomato if you apply this too heavily!

The second one is 'Dream Phone' which is a beautiful plum shade. Again this has a small amount of shimmer and is incredibly high pigment, so only a light hand is needed here! The colour looks flattering and healthy and has pretty good staying power!

There are plenty more colours I want to add to my collection, and for £7 a pop I can't see why I can't have them all! I also want to add the 'glow' highlighter to my collection as well as a few Topshop lipsticks!


Have you ever tried anything from the Topshop beauty range?
