December favs



Hey guys,  ready for 2015. I know I am. Cannot end the year without having a December favourites,  although this is more of a what have I purchased lately. I hope you enjoy guys xxx




 I took a trip to the Debenham's store in Oxford Street and decided to have a little spend on perfume. My intentions was to buy Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf but then I remembered I had my eye set from two Christmas's ago on 'La Vie est Belle'. The other two products from Philip Kingsley are from Lookfantastic. 



1. Lancome 'La vie est belle' Perfume and Lotion (Free gift with purchase)


'La vie est belle' what would I do without you in my live. The smell lingers on forever, it smells incredible and lasts all day. I bought this during the summer time and said to myself I will open this on Christmas day. I made the right choice, the combinations of orange blossom and Jasmin just make it everything you ever wished for. the right statement piece to have in your collection.






I heard so much about the Philip Kingsley products especially the Philip Kingsley elasticizer. I decided to buy the elasticizer extreme as my hair is natural (type 4b/4C), right now I wear weaves or extensions just for protective styling. I did manage to use both products and what the elaticizer does is it smooths your hair, it is a pre- shampoo. This works extremely well,  I use it with coconut oil and leave it on over night and wash it out in the morning. Definitely another holy grail.


The shampoo works really well, it smells like apples which I adore. I need something to calm down my dry scalp sometimes (Damn you relaxer!!!).  It's not a everyday shampoo for me, but I use it when I take my weave out usually.



 I bought nail polishes from Barry M,  Essie and Models own. Barry M have the showgirl mascara which I got free with purchase. You can't go wrong with buying books or novels, I had to get my hands on 'Gone girl',  so far it's good (only read one chapter) will have to let you guys know later.



Hope you enjoyed my favourites. Wishing you all a lovely and prosperous time for the new year. Bring on 2015... Xxx

Black Friday '



I went a little crazy on Black Friday spending a bit too much. Hello it's not a tradition over in the UK, can you blame me... I had to get my hands on some 'Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution' lipsticks. And 'Oh my goodness' I have fallen in love. I'm so impressed with the formula,  the lipsticks are so creamy and smooth and to think they're a matte form. On the packaging it describes how the lipsticks are 'enriched with Papaya and Orchid to hydrate and glowing pigments for full volume lips'. They retail at £23.00 each.

The Shades: 'Bond girl' and 'Glastonberry'

'Glastonberry'- A sheer blackcurrant/ deep purple colour











'Bond Girl'- A chic natural berry/ pink shade, quite close to my lip colour. 





So if you want to purchase these lovely lipsticks or even her make-up range you can get it from her website or Selfridges. Click the link...
This would be a lovely gift idea for Christmas or any other occasion.

Rimmel Polishes


Hey guys, 

Long time no see. I'm sure you must be looking forward to the Christmas Holidays,  which is coming up soon. Cannot believe its nearly Christmas. 

Right so I have a little confession to make.  I think I'm addicted to buying nail polishes because my nail polish collection is getting beyond a joke. I've recently bought the Rimmel nail polishes and I have to say I'm quite impressed. At first, judging from the price I thought the nail polish would be quite cheap and not long lasting. I was wrong,  the new or fairly new Rita Ora Rimmel range is quite amazing. Off course being £2.99 each the polish chips in 3 days, but considering the price the pigment is perfect and the coat is flawless. They give a lovely shine and I think the range will suit anyone. I have a few photo's to show you guys. Tell me what colours you like or if you bought these too.


Rimmel colours: Rita Rouge
Do not disturb
Oragasm 


I only had a chance to take one photo of me wearing one of the nail polishes. I have tried them all and they give the same finish as shown in the photo. Can purchase these at Boots or Superdrug's.

July Goodies


July already, time flies so fast. Hope you all are having an amazing summer. Now I'm finished from Uni until September all I've been doing is work, work, work. But of course I've had time to buy some stuff to share with you guys. Boots, Superdrug's, New Look and The Body Shop have been my favourite shops at the moment. I previously bought some products from  Boots and The Body Shop.






The first products I bought from boots were Simple. I've always stuck to simple since the age of fourteen, as all their products are not harsh on my skin.








The consistency is exactly like a sun cream, when I  start to use it regularly I will be doing a review on the product as this is the first time I'm using it.

2. Simple Moisturising Facial Wash 



I took a shot of my old bottle as I use it daily, this is absolutely one of my favourite holy grails. I've been using this facial wash for ages and I cannot help myself, I always end up going back to it. It is a really smooth texture. What I do is use cold water on my face before (the cold water helps to open your pores) and then add a small drop of this facial wash to my hand and rub it all over my face then rinse off with warm water. Such a easy process when I get up in the morning.

3. Simple Facial Cleansing Wipes



Wipes are an essential product that everyone needs. I usually take my make-up off with baby wipes, but I purchased these Simple ones again as I haven't bought them in ages. It's time for a change and I love the fact their cleansing wipes as it will be easier to take my make-up off completely .



Lastly are my products from The Body Shop. All of them are really amazing, I had to repurchase the skin primer and Slanted brush. I just started using the coconut body mist and I love the smell, I use it nearly everyday and get lovely compliments. My free bottle of cooling foot spray is so refreshing. I love that tingling feeling I know its working, especially after a long day at work.

1.Skin Primer- Matte it
2.Coconut Body Mist 
3. Slanted angle brush
4. Cooling Feet Spray- Pepper Mint ( Got it Free with purchase)

Drugstore Lip products




We all know it's now spring time, I'm really excited about the summer already. I love drug store make-up and sometimes a bit more than high end products. I absolutely love all these colours, I decided to do swatches so you guys can see the colour pay off.




The consistency of these products are amazing, the only  problem you may have is that you have to reapply the product during the day. But they all smell and go on great.

Top 6 Music Artists 2014


Hey everyone,

                    I'm truly sorry about the late message but Happy New Year!! I hope you all have had a brilliant start to 2014. I've been so busy revising for exams, recovering from a dirty cold.. Ehhhh!!

But I'm still here to let you guys know what I've been getting up to. Recently I've been inspired by known artist like 'Beyonce' with her new phenomenal  album, how she brought it out without no one knowing is something else. There are a couple of songs on her album I thought could of done a bit better, however the main songs I've been loving are 'Drunk in Love', 'XO', 'Yonce', 'Partition' and 'Flawless' I could go on for days, but lets stop there.






There are also other artist such as:


  • Jhene Aiko 'Sail Out' Album (Love the whole album)
  • Rihanna - 'What Now'
  • Tamar Braxton - All the way home
  • Pharrell Williams - Happy 
  • Lorde- 'Tennis Court' (Yeah) & 'Royals'
