First MAC purchase!

So I finally gave in and bought something by MAC! I have nothing against it I just could never afford anything haha, I went on a trip to Westfield in Stratford, London and thought I would pop in.

I've always heard about how good MAC's foundations are and the people who I see using them always have flawless looking skin and great coverage and I thought dammit I want that too! lol

I ended up purchasing the Matchmaster SPF 15 foundation which was around £24-£27 I believe.

My shade is 8.5 and I kind of thought it was a bit orange lol but I like it!



Pre foundation lol

Post foundation!


 I've had a lottt of compliments about my skin and asking what foundation I use etc and I am very happy! I have other foundations in my collection but I don't think I'll be turning back for a while.

God bless

The time I won hair....

Random title right lol!! but it's true! Diamond Hair UK (website found here) had a competition on their  Twitter page to win 3 bundles of Brazilian weave along with some other prizes, all you had to do was say who your fave celeb style is and why, here's part of my entry.....


Most people done their entries as a written paragraph but I thought I would think outside the box a little.

The hair came around 3 days from when I gave my address and the lengths and texture of weave I wanted (Wavy in inches 18, 20, 22) and the packaging was lovely...



.

And this is what it looks like on my head haha!



Hope you like!

God bless

Winged glasses

You may remember a few posts ago I created a wishlist of a few things I really wanted to purchase... well I am slowly but surely starting to get them!...Hurray!

I've just come back from an amazing weekend in Essex with my best friends for one of their birthdays and last night a couple of us went to Lakeside!

We went into Forever 21 and my sister treated me to these awesome glasses which were a bargain at £3.99. They're winged like I always wanted and look really nice ( although I do feel a bit weird wearing them in public sometimes lol!)

My sis also got some nice ones too!

                  Hope you like!
                      God bless

Autumn Style: Jumpers

(Note: none of these photos belong to me)

As an August baby you may be surprised to hear that one of my favourite times of year is Autumn! I love the sun but there's something about a comfy outfit when colder weather strikes...makes me think of coffees, coats, warmth, friendship and so on!


Nicole Scherzinger had a spread in the October 2013 issue of Glamour Magazine where she sported the Autumn jumper look perfectly!

My mission recently has been to find some great Autumn jumpers to wear with leather jackets, leggings and boots!

Asos have a great range of jumpers, from sweaters to traditional chunky knits to unique designs like the one above which retails at £30 and can be found here




H&M have some great jumpers at £12.99 at the moment and this is one I love and actually bought myself! It's rather thin so would need to be paired with a jacket for colder days but the oversized feel and comfy shape means it's perfect for this time of year! Find it here



I love beige/cream jumpers in Autumn, dark colours are great but I feel fresh when I wear light colours, this one also from H&M retails at £14, is short at the front and longer in the back and has a silky feel, team with some leather look leggings, some boots and a leather jacket and you are good to go! Find it here





As expected MissGuided.co.uk also have a fab range of jumpers, I love the look of this grey one with denim jean shorts, but pair with some tights so you don't freeze! Find this jumper here

This is my favourite style for Autumn what do you think?

God bless

Rih's launch party for her Autumn line was held at The Dorchester Hotel and she did not disappoint with her guests! All of the top models right now were out in full force supporting the line wearing items from the collection including Cara Delevingne who instagrammed a picture (not the one below) of Rihanna and herself together this morning and said "Always a pleasure"

Soap and Glory goodies!

Note: Not all photos are my own, underneath I will state which do not belong to me :)

`You may remember I previously done a post on a Soap & Glory mini scrub called "Scrub 'Em and Leave 'Em" a while back, it was only a small tub but it smelt like vanilla and made my skin feel amazing!

 I've been meaning to purchase some more Soap & Glory products but never had the chance so when I opened a gift from my friends which was a Soap & Glory Birthday Box I was so shocked! What a coincidence haha! So grateful.


The goodies came in such a cute pink box with a ribbon around it!

Included in the box:
  • "Clean On Me" creamy clarifying shower gel 500ml
  • "The Righteous Butter" Body butter 300ml
  • One pink shower puff!
(All rights reserved to photographer)
Clean On Me shower gel has a built in moisturiser so it leaves your skin feeling so soft after a shower and teaming it with the body butter makes you feel like you have silk for skin lol! honest! Fantastic for the colder months ahead which leave your skin dryer than normal.
It retails alone for £6 and is a large bottle. The scent is absolutely gorgeous and is really refreshing when you have a morning shower...so fruity. This product won a "COMPANY Beauty" Award in 2012 and I 100% know why. I really look forward to my showers now haha,
Say hello to super soft skin!

Another award winning product here! The Righteous Butter won a "Woman & Home" Best in Beauty award in 2012! What a great year for the brand. 
Alone it retails at £10.50 so is a bargain to come in a set! This body butter is a favourite of mine 100%, even over my Body Shop Shea Butter! The product isn't too runny or too thick and feels perfect on your skin!



Soap and Glory is a brand well worth checking out in Boots if you haven't already! Fantastic value for money and you skin will thank you truuuust me!
They have a broad range of products from fake tan and lip gloss to body scrubs, travel kits, wrinkle filler and products for other problem areas...take a look here!

God Bless
