Random Haul : JanBlog #4

Welcome one and all,

Well I went for a stroll into town today which really is never a good thing. I ended up buying some of the last minute bargains. *slaps self*

So, I have been looking for a few items and thought with the sales on this was the perfect time to hunt. I am trying to get into my jewellery more but I am forgetful and tend to leave it to one side. After a mooch about Primark, I thought H&M have fairly ok jewellery.



Now before you all call my jewellery gaudy or horrid, I already know. That's how I roll baby!! The necklace is so me, skulls and spikes!! YES! The rings are bigger than I thought after taking them out but one of them has cat ears, like really. Both the set of rings and necklace were £4 each.

If you watch my YouTube channel, which you totally should, then you will know I love hats. I have hats galore and some I don't even think I have worn outside yet. Why do I need a new one? Who knows. My conclusion is because I say awesome so much and it's on the hat, it was fate. Picture at the end.

I did get some new tights that don't need photographing. Superdrug and Boots have the same offer one at the moment with most brands BUT I stopped by Superdrug to get some matte Barry M polishes. I have one already and love it so I got two more. It was 2 for £6 and I had a £1 on my loyalty card (I don't shop in there often) so I saved, yes that's right.



I bought 'Espresso' and 'Crush' and I love them. So gorgeous.I will most likely paint my nails on Monday and instagram a picture then. Stay tuned.


All in all I had a great venture into town. Spent money I didn't need to and had a yummy Costa to top it off. Perfecto!! I just realised my hat looks so chavvy haha. Woohoo. Love it.

Have a great weekend guys. Stay safe in that crazy ass weather.

Lots of love,

My Acne Story | LUSH Grease Lightning

Image
Hello loves, 
Well I have a different kind of post today. It is about my acne and a product I tested to try help it out. 

I mentioned this in my Top 5 LUSH products post just this week. It is one of a kind. I am about to share some rather honest pictures so look away if you're easily offended. 

My skin is oily in the t-zone area and can be dry elsewhere. It is also quite sensitive and I have redness on my jawline that can sometimes be quite visible. I use to have acne prone skin when I was a teenager and into my early 20's. 
I will link to the LUSH website where you can see ingredients etc at the end. 
I had noticed several blackheads on my face and really didn't want them to sit there and become worse so I decided to try this product. It straight away smells like Witch Hazel and Tea Tree which I like, it's an almost clean smell. It feels like a gel and as it dries you can feel it tighten over the designated area. This disappears when you apply moisturiser. 
When I fi…

NORVINA - ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS Q&A

Image
Hey loves,
So last week, I think, I asked Norvina if she would answer some questions for my lovely little blog. It was a cheeky ask but she said yes and gave me an e-mail address almost instantly. Love that. 
So, if you're reading this and thinking 'who is this lady?' or even worse 'what does she do?' then please take a seat and get with the programme. Norvina is the creator of all things contour, lips, eyes and concealing. If you follow her on Instagram then you will notice her constantly testing out products. 



So here are the questions.. (I am still slightly fan girling)
Everyone has been falling head over heels for your company. From the eyebrows to the contour kits and now liquid lipsticks. 
I know you have some brushes and concealers for sale, will there be expansions with those or even into the foundation world at some point?
Yes that's the ultimate goal is to expand to the entire face. We have to pace ourselves for a multitude of reasons, and hopefully keep ou…

NYX Face Off: Soft Matte Lip Cream vs Butter Gloss

Image
Want to know what I think is better from popular brand NYX?


I am a huge fan of NYX. I love that whilst they have some dupes for higher end products they have a tonne of their own original products.

The Soft Matte Lip Creams are an almost moussey feeling lip cream. I mean they don't call it a cream for nothing. I would highly recommend using a lip balm previous to applying this product. It dries matte so if there are any dry patches, it will sink into them. Whilst on the lips I would let it dry and apply as many coats as you like. I would typically use two. Whilst the colour is a vibrant hot pink (Addis Ababa) it can be sheered out to your preference. I find that these stay on the lips for up to four hours.

Now, I have heard a lot about the hyped Butter Glosses. When NYX was released in Ireland earlier this year I decided to try one. I gave into the hype (oh no!). There was quite a selection but opted for Peaches and Cream, a gorgeous pinky coral. I hadn't and still haven't…
