A little makeup haul.








Nyc Individual eyes palettes in Smokey blues and Midtown mauve. £3.99 each (Buy one get one half price) 

 I saw someone mention one of these palettes in a video and when I popped into Superdrug and swatched some of the shadows I decided to pick two up. They are really nice shadows and I can't wait to use them properly. 

Beauty UK Baked blush in Shade 3 Halo £3.99

This is such a pretty pinky highlighter shade and I've been eyeing it up for a couple of months and I decided it was time I got round to trying it. First impressions are good, it's a very pretty shade and the shimmer is really finely milled so it shouldn't be to OTT. 

Collection Shimmer shades in 2 Blushalicious. £3.99

I don't really know why I bought this, it was definitely one of those oooh that's pretty then *grabs and runs for the tills* I have tried this once and I really like it. It isn't overly shimmery or pigmented so it leaves you with a lovely healthy glow. 

Sinful colours Nail polishes in Cinderella, Island coral and Pink forever. £1.99 each. (3 for £4) 

I really like the sinful colours polish I already own so I decided to pick up a few more to try. I've currently got Cinderella on my nails (The light blue) and it is really beautiful. 

P.S. Love lipstick £1.00

Everyone seems to be talking about this range at the moment so I had to pick up something from it. The one thing I dislike about this is that it doesn't have a name. Which is fine if you don't talk to anyone about makeup, but being a blogger it make's my life very difficult. 


I hope you enjoyed this little haul.

Top 10 under a tenner.



I love drugstore makeup, so today I thought I'd show you my Top 10 products under the £10.00 mark. I hope you enjoy this post. 

Face...



 Maxfactor CC cream £9.99 //Here//

This is really lovely, it's not super heavy and high coverage but it covers redness really well and I only need to use a little concealer along with it. Another good thing about it is it goes really pale. Overall this one is really nice on good skin days and really improves the look of skin without masking it. 

Maybelline Fit me Concealer £5.99 //Here//

This is a really lovely concealer, it's really moisturizing whilst still having a really lovely amount of coverage. I really like using this on my under eyes although it works just as well on blemishes and hyper pigmentation. 

Topshop Cream blush - Flush £7.00 //Here//

The colour of this is just perfect on my skin and I love the cream to powder formula. These blend beautifully and last for hours and hours. 


Eyes...


Avon Supershock eyeliner £6.00 //Here//

This eyeliner is so soft and creamy. I like to use it on my waterline but it also works really nicely on the upper lash line smudged out into a smoky eye. It also doesn't budge when it's set. 

2 True Eyeshadow duo £1.99 //Here//

I wrote a post raving about these as they are just so amazing for the price. Pigmented, blendable and affordable. What more could you ask for? 

Maybelline Colour tattoo £4.99 //Here//

If you're a regular reader over here you will know about my long running love affair with these. I love them as they last for so long. I just wish they did some more shades. 


Lips...



Revlon Colourburst matte balms £7.99 //Here//

These are fabulous, the colours are so gorgeous and they last so long on the lips. I also really like the minty smell/taste. These three are in the colours Unapologetic, Showy and Elusive. 

Maxfactor Colour elixir Giant pen stick Vibrant pink £6.99 //Here//

This is really lovely, the colour is so intense and the lasting power is really good. The only thing I don't like about this is the fact that you have to sharpen it. 

Nails...



Models own polishes £5.00 //Here//

I have a new found love for models own nail polishes, they really are fantastic. I love the glitters especially pink fizz. 

Essie Nail polishes £7.99 //Here//

Another brand I adore are Essie there polishes go on so well and last for such a long time. They also have the most gorgeous selection of colours. 

So guy's I really hope you enjoyed this post.

#2014Bloggerchallenge - Photo challenge

I love photography and I spend half my life on instagram, so when I got the email through to tell me about this topic I was really excited. I've decided to do an instagram diary, now this is written a couple of weeks ahead so this is a little bit early but I thought I'd show it you anyway.


1. An outfit from the Manchester bloggers meetup, which I am completely in love with. 

2. A cheeky little selfie from the bloggers meet up. I'm wearing Rimmel Kate Moss matte lipstick in 110 which I really like. 

3. Lush sweetie pie shower jelly is probably the most fun shower product in the world. It also smells delicious, oh and it's sparkly! 

4. Lush Bubblegum lip scrub tastes amazing and really works. 

5. A couple of spring lipsticks.

6. Some cheeky lipstick purchases from my trip to the Trafford centre.

I hope you enjoyed this post,

March Beauty top 5.





Avene Cleanance K* £10.50 //Here//

I was sent this at the beginning of the month and it's really helped clear up my skin. Any blemishes I do get now aren't as red and sore as they were before. This is meant to be comparable to La roche posay efeclair duo so I would like to try that one so I can compare them. A full review of this will be up soon. 

Collection Fast stroke liquid eyeliner £2.99 //Here//

I've worn eyeliner quite a few times this month and I've fallen back in love with this. It's so easy to apply and it stays put all day. It's also really jet black. 

Models own Nail polish in Pink fizz £5.00 //Here//

This polish is just so pretty and lasts such a long time on the nails. The one thing I dislike is how hard it is to get off. This is most definitely a one/two finger polish. I love the way it looks paired with baby pinks but it also looks lovely with black.

Revlon Colourburst Matte balm in Unapologetic £7.99 //Here//

This is just such a perfect colour for spring, it's a super bright coral-y pink and it just looks so stunning on the lips. These last amazingly and smell delicious. 

Mac Amplified lipstick in Up the amp £15.00 //Here//

I adore this lipstick, it is just the most gorgeous colour. It's a gorgeous mix of purple and pink and just looks amazing paired with a otherwise very natural face. 

So that's this months favourites, I really hop you guys enjoyed this post.
