Drugstore Haul



So the other day whilst I was in town I thought I'd treat myself to some new makeup, I made my way into boots and super drug and this is what I picked up. Starting with boots, I noticed that a lot of Soap & Glory products had £2 off them so I repurchased two of my favourite products; these are the One Heck of a Blot Powder and the Primer. I have used these products many times before and they are some of my all time favourite base products! I then found myself looking at their lipsticks and I picked up two from their nudes collection, the shades I got are Love & O-Biege which is a really pretty nude shade which is a shine finish and then I also got Barley Pinking which is a pink nude which is also a shine finish.

I also went to Superdrug as I wanted too pick up a few things from Tanya Burr's new Soft Luxe range, the only thing they had in stock from this range was the nail polish in Piggy Bank. Its a really pretty muted pink shade and looks so lovely on the nails! From her previous collection I picked up the Hollywood eyeshadow pallet which has a lovely range of golds and browns. I also picked up a lipgloss in the shade Just Peachy! I love these lip glosses as they are so pigmented and smell amazing!

Hope you enjoyed this post today! Have you picked up anything from the drugstore lately?

Monthly Favourites | June 2016




Hello guys! So I know it has been ages since I have uploaded a blogpost but I was really busy with college as it is my final year and that was my main focus. Since I have now finished college and have a long summer break before I start university I really want to get back into blogging! I thought the best post too do to get back into the swing of things would be a monthly favourites, so here is everything I have been loving throughout the month of June.

The first product that I have been loving are my new GHD straighteners, when choosing a new pair of straighteners I found this stunning limited edition pair. The model of straighteners is called the GHD V Marine Allure Styler. I have always had GHD straighteners and I find them the best ones too use as they always last for ages and keep my hair straight throughout the day. I also find that they are really easy to also use too curl my hair, I love the curls I get from using these!

I recently got some new make up brushes from Spectrum Collections and these are the prettiest brushes I have ever owned, they are also super soft as well! One thing I also love about this brand is that is completely vegan and cruelty free! My favourite brush I got has got too be the B01 which is the flat topped brush, I find this the best brush for foundation as you can get a smooth and even finish and really buff the product into the skin. The C03 brush which is the tapered blush is great for powder and setting your makeup. I would highly recommend these brushes as they are really affordable and great quality for the price!

The Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation is a new favourite of mine. I have never actually brought a high end foundation, but was finding that the drugstore ones I was using just weren't the right shade and didn't sit right on my skin. So I decided to try the Urban Decay one, this is now my new favourite foundation! It sits so nicely on my skin and it doesn't even look like I have foundation on and makes my skin looks flawless! Another face product which I have been loving is the Benefit Watts Up highlighter. I think I have mentioned this on my blog before buy I recently rediscovered it. I love the golden highlight this gives and adds just a touch of glow too my skin.

Hope you have enjoyed todays post, let me know what you have been loving throughout this month!

The Perfect Lip Combo | Mac


If you have read my blog for a while now you will know I am a lover of pink nudes and sometimes I feel like thats all I go on about but I have finally jumped on a bandwagon which I should of jumped on ages ago and got my self Mac's lip liners in the shade 'Soar'. I have seen everyone raving about this for months as I think if I'm right its one of the shades that Kylie Jenner wears.

The lipliner pairs so well with my all time favourite Mac lipstick Brave and I have been wearing this combo most days now and I love it! I love using the lipliner as I can define my lips just that little bit more and I find my lipstick lasts so much longer! If you are looking for a new pink nude lip combo I would recommend you try this one out!

Hope you enjoyed todays post I will see you in my next one!

Autumn Edit | Go To Makeup



I know that autumn is nearly over and we are finally getting ready for winter as Christmas is just round the corner. As the seasons change I don't really mix up my makeup that much the main things that change are the colours of the lipstick and blush I wear and I usually go for more of a matte base than glowy skin, I like to save that for spring/summer.

For the a matte base I have found a new primer which I have been loving! It is the Soap and Glory One Heck of A Blot primer I love the powder of this and I am so glad that the primer lives up to how good the powder is! I love using this under the Loreal Paris Infallible foundation, I love this foundation as it is really high coverage and it is also such a reasonable price. To conceal I have been using the Maybelline New Year Age Rewind I'm not a massive fan of the sponge applicator but I do love the product itself, it's a really nice coverage and it surely does erase my dark circles! To set that all in place I am still loving an old favourite of mine which is the Rimmel London Stay Matte powder I have loved this powder for years now, it just does such a good job of keeping everything in place and making sure my face stays matte!

I have discovered a new favourite eyeliner and I feel like I have finally found the perfect one (well for now I have) I have been loving the Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner for the past few weeks now! It is so easy to use and is so black and it does actually stay on ALL day without smudging which is just great! If you haven't tried this yet I recommend that you do! I like to keep things pretty simple on the eyes and just go for a winged eyeliner look with a bit of mascara I also like to blend some bronzer through my crease just to add a little more definition.

To add in some autumn tones into my makeup look I have been going for a darker lip, I have been loving the shade 430 from Loreal Paris its just a deep red which is matte so its great for this time of year!

Hope you enjoyed todays post and you should let me know what products you long for autumn/winter!

Autumn Fashion Favourites



I thought I'd share a few of my autumn fashion favourites. Autumn is one of my favourite seasons for fashion, I love big coats and checkered scarfs. So firstly I am going to talk about the lovely checkered scarf I got from New Look. I love added checkered scarfs to all black outfits as it adds a touch of colour to my outfit. I love wearing this scarf with a denim jacket or a long black jacket.

I have also been loving loafers this season. I got these ones from Topshop a few weeks ago and I have been loving them! (even though they kill my feet) They look so nice with a pair of high waisted jeans and a white shirt. Another pair of shoes I have been loving have been these black boots from Public Desire, now these are the comfiest pair of boots I have ever owned! I love how they add a little bit of heal and add a bit more than flats to the outfit. To tie up my outfit I have been loving my Kate Spade bag, I got this for my birthday in July and have been in love with it ever since! It's the Kate Spade Cedar Street Small Hayden and I added a cute pom pom from Topshop.

Hope you enjoyed today's post! Let me know what your fashion favourites are for autumn!
