5 Orange Lip Glosses to try

There’s nothing I love more than juicy juicy oranges for the lips. It looks great with a tan, especially with a little sparkle. NYX Round Gloss in Apricot – I like these glosses a lot but they packaging is shiteous. Of the 12 NYX glosses I have HALF of them are damaged (the cap in […]

November 14, 2008 |

Shu = Meh

Maybe I’m just a cranky cow, but I made my way to the Shu Uemura counter today to lookat the Mika Christmas collection which looks super stunning online. Only 2 palettes were left: This one looks dull but it’s actually quite nice and the third colour across, a rose bronze is utterly stunning. Winter Sakura […]

Shu Uemura Instinct Collection

September 5, 2008 |

Shu Uemura Instinct Collection

Recently, though I have liked what Shu has to offer, I haven’t loved it. Infact the last few collections over the last year have been hit and miss; too dull, too hard, too chalky. I was ready to pass on the Instinct Collection too but then….I found out one side was a cream eyeshadow! I […]

Cleansing Oils

Cleansing is such a pain in the butt – maybe some of you enjoy it. Because I use things like primers, super waterproof mascaras and creamy blushers, I need something that will take it off! take it all off! I was introduced to cleansing oils by Shu Uemura. The first time I ever had it […]

The Multi Talented Palette!

May 3, 2008 |

So in my last post I had bought a £8 Shu Uemura empty palette to put my lip sticks in. This is not the first time. I love the idea of the project, but when it comes to it, I DO NOT, ever, get a lip palette out and carefully apply a lip colour with […]

Urban Decay recently released three new colours; Ye-Yo – White Rockstar – Deep Purple Stash – A deep dirty Green. I adore Urban Decay Pencils – I can normally assess how good a pencil is by how well it comes off on my waterline and how many sweeps it takes. I own pencils my Make […]

Shu Uemura Quad

April 12, 2008 |

I found this little gem on HK Facial Shop. I already have this limited case (which comes as an empty) from 2007 collections. This one came with four shades already loaded – I tried picking them out but ended up smudging the yellow instead so I will try again when my paws, I mean hands, […]

The weather is finally starting the cheer up here in England; its nicely warm and bright, is it nearly spring?!

January 1, 2008 |

I first tried mascara when I was 17. I think it was Maybelline Volume Express. I loved how thick it made my lashes thick but it definately made my lashes flop like mad, and ran everywhere. This was the waterproof version too – so I gave up altogether untill one day, I went for a […]

Shu Uemura Gold Mode Collection

December 2, 2007 |

I normally go nuts for anything Shu but I am not loving this years Christmas collection: The model looks good (why does Shu ALWAYS use western models?) but the actual product range is so-so. The packaging is heavy grooved gold – think of Estee Lauder, and there are two eyeshadow/blush duo’s: The other set has […]
