The Sun Has Got His Hat On

Let the sunshine As it had been so yummy sunny the last few days me and my beautiful cousin Chels went and done some light shopping yesterday (and walked the dog) because we hadn't hung out much since she'd been back from working abroad .  We got coffees at Starbucks and strolled about window shopping , trying on stuff we have no intention of buying . Bargain of the day ! ! ! I got my other half a pair of jammy bottoms from Topman for £1 ! So chuffed with them : ] When are Topshop going into Mid Season sale ? Because everyone else seems to be already marking down . Anyone got a super bargain yet ? 

The Chanel counter girl So we hit the Chanel counter to see what beautiful foundations they had to offer and shockingly for once it was a pleasant experience . We were able to browse and talk to the girl behind the counter without being pushed and shoved into trying a lot of expensive stuff we didn't want (want but can't afford) . We were both matched up to the lush Perfection Lumiere and sent off with a good size tester to see what we thought . Tip & Hint this is what will make me go back when I eventually want to buy a full size bottle .Through the power of Twitter I informed @Debenhams of this great customer service and apparently they are going to pass this on to the store I visited . Super Chanel girl ! Which Chanel foundation would you recommend ?

Stupid Starbucks My super happy *I've got a day off and I am spending it shopping* mood was dampened by being told in Starbucks to put my camera away as you are not allowed to take pictures in their branches . . . what the fudge ? It actually really ticked me off because I was doing no harm and the girl wasn't terribly polite when she told me . AND they didn't ask my name , which was a tad excited about . I won't be using that particular branch anymore ! Also for the record the other branch of Starbucks in the town are bloody amazing 100% of the time . Do I avoid and try Costa instead ?

Petrol Your thoughts ? What the heck happened ? Panic has spend through the country, with people queueing at all hours of the day & night . I could not believe the amount of stations  we saw when we were out with queues up to 20 cars long and some stations run dry  by panic stricken motorists . One women has even managed to set herself on fire transferring petrol from one container to another . Massive tax scam ? yes ! What is everyone thinking ? What is the currently petrol level in your car ? Did you fill up ?

In My MakeUp Bag

Photobucket

A nosey post for you all this evening , because we all love a good rummage through other peoples personal belongings , well I know I sure do . So this is a little peek in my current makeup baggy . These are the bits and bobs I carry around on a day to day basis to make sure I am never caught short and am able to reapply my face on the go . It obviously can change all the time depending on what I might need when I am out of the house or for when  I change my mood and want to splash on something different . I'll be sure to treat you to an updated in my hangbag post soonies . Happy Wednesday everyone !

Sooner Or Later

   
Untitled #5



Wow my day off has been an extremely lazy one ! I blogged this morning about the groovey little make up sponge I got last week then I headed out with father to take some pictures down the beach then home again to lay on the sofa all day to do nothing but eat sticky toffee pudding and watching Disney movies , I am currently watching Tangled , it is the part where they let of all the lanterns for her birthday then I continue to cry for the rest of the movie #Lame . I need this on DVD . . . When my loverhalf gets home I am going to be in trouble . So theough lusting over goodies all over the internet , these are just a few of the bits I'd like . I already have this watch in RoseGold but I saw it the other week in a shop window in this drop dead amazing new colour so now I want it . Also I sampled the Vitalumiere Aqua from Chanel a while ago and now I am desperate to go get myself the full size version . My bank balance hates me all the time .

Happy Friday all and have a beautiful weekend .

I know these have been around for ages but I am not a huge fan of any form of make up sponge because they soak up all your foundation and all the grubby little germs from your face therefore having to be replaced so often , so I had never really bothered picking one up when I saw them . But the other day a college was saying she likes to use her fingers to apply her foundation so that she knows exactly where she is getting it . Even though I use my 187 MAC brush to apply my foundation I still manage to miss the little areas around my nose . All this made me automatically think of these because of it's quirky shape so we had a look around and they rrp for about £15 from MAC and £5 from Cosmopolitan so as always I headed over to eBay and found loads in lots of different shapes and colours for a only a couple of quid mostly from Hong Kong . This is the one I brought . It is so cute ! I don't use it to apply my foundation all over , you are meant to use it to stipple to create a flawless airbrushed finish but I just use it for around my nose and eyes as the tip gets into all those small areas .

For a few quid I think it is definitely worth trying these out , it's always exciting finding a new way to apply your make up .

MAC's Frou & Innocence, Beware!

Photobucket

Wow I just found two MAC lipsticks shoved out of the way amongst all my other lipsticks . I brought these in February/March from my local MAC counter . 1. I have not used these two yet , they are still in their boxes and 2. I still have not blogged on them , ooh the shame , so bam here they are . . . I've swatched them for you so you can see what the colour really looks like , swatches are cool . Yes they are both nudes shades but hey get used to it because I love nudes , it's the easiest colour to wear , end of . So I have . . .
 
Frou . This has a Glaze finish and the colour is really whitey gold/silver , I would not wear this day to day as it is a bit of a going out , date night type of lipstick . I do not own a MAC lippy that really has that much sparkle in it so I grabbed something that was new to me . It is so cute . This is a lipstick permanent stocked by MAC so you can go get it no problem if you like it .

Innocence, Beware! is a Cremesheen , it has a few peachy pink undertones which make the colour pop . I got this because the new CookCook collection came out and I always buy limited collection nudes before they sell out , I am trying to make excuses as to why I have so many nudes , ooh how I do adore them . Anyway this one probably is not one of my top nude shades as it's more peach than an natural looking nude , I like it all the same though .

Which is your favourite lipstick from MAC ?

Glossybox The Harrods Edition

So after Februarys Glossybox we were promised a "Mystery Box" .  Sadly the mystery was outed when Glossybox held an event for bloggers to reveal what the fuss was all about , only thing was once these boxes were handed out pictures began to appear showing us all what the box contained . I no personally I love the feeling of the surprise when I first open my monthly box and try to avoid other bloggers posts about their box's until mine has arrived .
 
Anyway on to what I thought of this mystery box . I do like all the products , they are all great . The Molton Brown shower gel smells lush and I'll be using it asap but £18 for this product full size is mental . The YSL serum is also real yum and pure luxury but £80 for 50ml is even more mental . With the "normal" Glossybox I would usually probably buy a sample I like but with this Harrods Edition I sadly wouldn't purchase any , only due to the price of the full size products , other than that I think it is an amazing effort put in by the Glossybox team , Thank you .

Confused ? ? ?  Is this the official  March box ? ? ? As it was delivered earlier than normal and I was under the impression it was some sort of extra ? ? ? 

Narciso Rodriguez eau De Parfum
Molton Brown Hevenly GingerLily Moisture Bath & Shower 
YSL Forever Youth Liberator Serum 
Burberry Beauty Miniature Lip Cover Rosewood No4 
Clarins Extra Firming Body Cream

What were your thoughts on this Mystery GlossyBox ?

kevin.Murphy Color.Bug

I was so jealous when I saw girls with gorgeous long brown hair with super fit ombre at the tips, well I was jealous until I found this ! After spending an interesting amount of time chalking my hair one afternoon with Miss Laura and deciding we absolutely loved our new look I ordered the Color.Bug by Kevin Murphy . It's a little plastic cup handle which holds a large shadow pan, kind of like an eye shadow . The idea is to rub the pan of colour against the pieces of your hair that you want to ombre and it takes no time at all . You can brush it after for make the colour a little less strong and more pastel or add more shadow to make the pigment strong, it's really about how you want it personally and personally I prefer pastel shades . Being as pastel colours are so in this year this is the perfect product to chop & change your look , it washes out so easily so you can pick a different colour or you could even try multicoloured . Sadly the Color.Bug only comes in three colours (Pink , Purple and Coral) but all three look like so much fun , I know I was so excited when I first got mine . . . I can have pink hair whenever I want ! And just for the record I recommend it to you to . I frecking love this thing , I want more .

Another Topshop Nail Polish

Photobucket
Photobucket

These pictures really does not do this vanish justice , I've highlighted each nail to emphasise it's bold beautiful metallic pink colour ! It also has flecks of gold in it which really set it off when it catches in the light . . .  Another polish to adore from Topshop . I got it from the Norwich branch at the weekend for £6 , I wish they'd put some sort of offer on so I could buy in bulk because I am definitely growing to love these polishes . They apply really well and come in some amazing colours ! I never though they would really be that good of quality because of being stocked by a clothing retailer but they are brilliant and last ages . I always apply an extra top coat for a high shine and to prolong the life of the polish . Also just so you know I applied three coats .

Mini Haul

Woo nosey post . . . I thought you'd all like to see what I purchased while out in shopping on Saturday . Only a few bits as I was kind of short on funds and should be saving for a house , if you are broke I recommend not going out on to that high street ! There were so many pretty things everywhere , MAC dropped like four collections at the beginning of March and it was all so tempting but I just got what I went in there for . Yes more lipsticks . . . I can hear you all say ooh no not another one ! Eek and not only that , it's another nude one (or two in this case) , Viva Glam Gaga 2 & Innocence, Beware from the ShopShop collection .

I also brought a DVD for date night with my better-half 
A skull bracelet , nail polish in pink and awesome tee from Topshop
An eyeshadow pan for my brows in Charcoal Brown from MAC .
A cute skull scarf from Primark for £3 ! 
Last thing was a tanning mitt

As you'll see I picked up a few samples from Chanel because I really want to try Vitalumiere Aqua but want to see if I like it first . I don't no if either of these samples will match because the women just 'guessed' which shade I was , will see how I get on . I'm really looking forward to giving it a try ! Would you recommend any Chanel foundations ? Also picked up a Bobbi Brown foundation sample .

Don't forget my GOSH brow kit giveaway ends tomorrow so enter before it's over
