Tweet A few weeks ago I went to Cheshire Oaks, which is a “Outlet Village” – ie. there’s a load of discount stores in one place. To be honest it was pretty rubbish because places like that always depends on the time of year and what the mainstream stores are getting rid off, plus, with there being so many sales on the high street, you don’t necessarily notice much of a discount. So generally…it was a sucky day. However! I {Read More}
Tweet Another Christmas present I got from Mr C was a rather impressive haul from Giorgio Armani; impressive because he went and chose a lip gloss for me and I am pretty hard to buy for (I had pretty much hinted about what shades of the Eyes to Kill I wanted in case he got me a really horrible colour). When you buy a few items from Armani they put it in a nice red gift box for you. Here {Read More}
Tweet I was sent a selection of products from a French brand, terre d’Oc which is certified organic, non-comogenic and is formulated with a number of oils and butters. The idea is that the products nourish as well as looking pretty! I have 3 products here, Eye Shadow Duo which has a cream texture in Rose and Prune Takaro, Eye Kohl in 701 Prune Kerala and Gloss Sublime Lip Gloss in Peach. Want a closer look?
Tweet Recently, I was sorting out my pigments for the blog sale (this Saturday people!) and ended up with about 6 empty containers. So I went to MAC to claim my free lipstick! Rather than going for something wacky,which is what I always do I decided to pick something I knew I would wear. I am madly in love with Angel from MAC – it’s one of the few MAC lipsticks I adore but it was a bit wobbly and {Read More}
Tweet I have a sickness – and it’s a lipgloss sickness and I can’t stop buying pretty ones! Having said that…a lot of the ones I buy are just meh. So it’s really nice to find something a bit special, that really looks pretty on… Esprique Aqua Drape Rouge lipglosses were released a few months back. I purchased two colours, RD471 a sheer brown red and PK972, a light pink: In my experience Japanese lip glosses are very pretty, sheer, {Read More}
Tweet The Face Shop is a Korean brand with some really interesting one off products. I find their Korean site very hard to navigate though so it’s tricky for me to see all the products they offer in one place. I did spot these Real Diamond (allegedly contains a small amount of diamond powder!) on eBay and decided to buy a few. I ABSOLUTELY adore sparkly glosses at this time of year! The glosses:I bought PK101 which is a light {Read More}
Tweet Lips of the day time! You know – I just love lipsticks and lip glosses but when you have so many, it’s hard to find something that is really lovely and impressive. Also the prices of lip products have seemed to soar, even high street brands like L’oreal are pushing £10 for a basic lipstick! By Terrys Gloss Terrybly (geddit?) Shine is a plumping, shiny lip gloss. It is firming, anti-aging and moisturises too: It contains (apparently) something called {Read More}
Tweet I love glittery lip gloss; I really do. I do love the MAC dazzleglass lipglosses, for full on disco. I have yet to find a glittery lip gloss that can surpass Dior’s Limited Edition sparkle top coat though (Image here). It was super duper gritty though! Enter Candydoll’s top coat offering; this lip gloss is a called Gelato ‘Gritter’ (really) but they actually mean, Glitter…. Gelato Glitter is a sheer light pink with multi coloured sparkles. It goes lipstick, {Read More}
