Speckled pink and Electric Blue...

A quick NOTD - Reminds me of the Illamasqua speckled range..but a bit more sexy..

This is a cold grey from Primark (pack of 4 - £2 bargain and lush colours!!)
With Barry Ms Ruby Glitter over the top!

I love this look :)



Also a sneaky pic of a new dress..H&M..£25. Kinda love the colour and the fit. 
I originally bought the leopard one of this, but it wasnt my size and couldnt get another! Gutted as I LOVE leopard print! 
I shall have to order online I think. Anyway - I love H&M, but their sizes are always odd on me!

I wore this to a party - with black tights, black shoe boots and a black blazer. 

What do you think of the colour? What would you wear with it?

No Make Up Face...Beware :)

So..here goes. My face. Without make up...for the world to see!

This is me after a shower, moisturised. I have quite a freckly face, no eyebrows hardly, a very odd nose, one  slightly lazy eye and big horrible cheeks! 

♥♥ GOD BLESS MAKE UP ♥♥


Here is me with half my face covered in my new BB cream, see yesterdays post. I love the coverage and feeling it leaves my skin.


Heres me with half my face now foundation covered - on top of the BB cream. I love this foundation (Not the best photo i admit!)


Heres me with my whole face foundation-ed now. With a bit of blush on.


My MAC palette...and H&M palettee...



Now my eyes are done, and one of my brows. I dont ever leave the house without brows! If its the only thing I do - I brow :)



Both brows done, Mac Gel Eyeliner on, Just need some mascara...


And here is the finished article...Well without straight hair..but you get the point :)


Not sure why I did this, but I love seeing other peoples 'get ready with me' posts.
I love the way make up makes you feel sexy, less 'faulted' and a bit more symmetrical haha!

 Im out tonight with a new dress, so Ill be sure to cover my 'going out' makeup tomorrow :) 

(Dont worry no more scary photos :))

A Wee Shop...

Yesterday we got sent home from work at 12 because the IT at work failed. Always a good thing in my books!!
So..i went on a small shop for some 'bits'.

They consisted of the below:

Leopard Print Dress from H&M - £25
Revlon Colourstay Foundation for Oily/Combination skin (Prefer the finish to this over the dry skin one) £12.50
Loreal Nude Magique BB cream - £9.99
Barry M Gelly nail poishes in Pomegranite / Grapefruit / Prickly Pear. 3 FOR 2 in Boots
Barry M nail polishes in Clear / Ruby Glitter / Yellow Topaz Glitter - 3 FOR 2 in Boots.
H&M Nail Polishes in Red Nail / Fabulous Nails Honey - £2.99 each.






I shall do a post on the polishes and my collection soon - but heres my first thoughts on the BB cream:

Being brand new to BB creams I was very sceptical, I dont usually like the texture of primers or tinted moisturisers - but this one I had seen reviewed and loved the idea of white liquid turning to coloured base.





Here it is freshly squeezed out of the fabulous pointy tube..its particles must burst when then are rubbed in or something - its genius! Its not thick, quite runny but i actually really like the texture. Its not heavy and makes you feel kind of 'clean'. It completely blended into my hand no bother...



You can see below the sheen it gives my hand - almost a gold glow. I tried it today for work under my new foundation and I LOVE IT. I will do a proper review with some before (argh!) and after make up shots - which Ive never done before so should be fun!!

Anyway - first thoughts - LOVE IT! a defo repurchase in my eyes!



Lastly, my foundation of choice, always, is this Revlon Colourstay. This time I went for a shade warmer than usual, because I was finding in photos my skin was forever looking so pale and washed out with the previous colour. Hopefully this is more my skin tone. 
Love this - and for anyone looking for a drugstore foundation, I would 100% recommend it. Its buildable, non heavy, matte and doesnt have a horrible smell! 
Though I like the Boujoirs and Rimmels of the counters - I have repurchsed this 5 times now so you can tell i love it.

:):):)



Hope you all had a fab valentines - I avoided like the plague! God bless Nail Polishes eh! 

Until Tomorrow...
