Jingle bells Jingle bells

Hi everyone!
I thought I would just put up a wee post today to wish evveryone a happppy Christmas!! I hope Santa has been good to you and that you had a good day! I had a great day. This was the FIRST year that I managed to contain myself enough to wake up at the reasonable hour of 8. Yes, for the past 20 years I have woken up at any time from 4 onwards. I feel that by managing to sleep this means I am a grown up - almost.

I am spending a few days with family/friends/ boyfriend, so will probably not manage to write another post till nearer the new year, so if you have any ideas of posts you would like me to do feel free to comment and I will - within reason haha - do your suggestion! :)

Hope you all have fun this week!

Winter favourites

So as I am in "the zone" for writing blog posts I have decided to write the ever popular "favourites" post, but as I haven't been updating this often I have missed a good few months! Boo! So I have decided to do a "Winter favourites" to share all my favourites from the past couple of months. So! Lets begin!


Philosophy: The present 


This little bit of (what can only be described as) magic in a bottle(!) has been my most recent and most favourite product! Now, this may be because I have never in my life used a face primer before so therefore the presence of one is miraculously better than without, but I am sticking with my story that this is a fantastic product! The "rule" to go with this is that you apply a thin layer on to your face then you leave it to set for 2 minutes. So after the 2 minutes (I usually just brush my teeth in that time - otherwise, 2 minutes doing nothing feels like ages!) you apply your foundation straight to it. This primer seems to make my make-up look flawless, the colour goes on evenly and my skin feels smooth, it also helps it last all day, which is something I am always striving for! So i got a bottle of this in TK MAXX for £5.99 which I reckon is pretty good! As I have said in previous posts, having a wee rummage always finds you something worth while!


Accessorize Bronzer 
So i bought this bronzer a good couple of months ago now, I believe when the make just came out. I bought the middle shade in this as I was looking for a bronzer which I could use as a contour colour. I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality of this bronzer! Despite its obvious similarities in appearance to the Mac msf's it has also got a similar quality to it! It is not too shimmery (or at least the shade I bought isn't) and has a good texture - not at all chalky. I have been using this with the Eco-tools blush brush which is just fluffy enough not to pick up too much product. Overall this is a great bronzer which at around £7 is a bargain!

Glitter Nail polish

I have been wearing glitter nail polish an awful lot over the past couple of months, be it over a coloured nail polish or on its own, I just cant get enough! I have an iridescent maybelline glitter polish, a purple/silver sephora for opi colour in "its bouquet with me" (this one is a bit of a favourite) and also a pure silver glitter (from a brand I cant remember!) The only advise I would give with this is to put both a base coat and a top coat on - I prefer to use "first and last" from China glaze, I got this free with a china glaze polish at Sallys and it does the job brilliantly! This looks so lovely and girly, if you were going to try this, I reckon Christmas is the best time to, glittery is socially accepted in every situation in the month of December! So go for it!



Lush Snow Fairy

The time has come, when Snow Fair is back in Lush! Moment for excitement! eeeeeeeek! I. Love. SNOW FAIRY!! It smells amaaaaaazing! Who doesnt want to smell like candy floss?! I know I do! So i bought the Snow Fairy shower gel/shampoo and have been using it religiously! I like using it as shampoo if I am wanting to smell it all day long, as shower gel the smell sadly doesnt last as long, but lets face it a little bit of snow fairy is better than no snow fairy at all. So if you haven't tried this I suggest you do. Now... don't worry, I'll wait.

"The Holiday"

I have watched this film about 15 times since the start of November it makes me feel warm, and fuzzy, and makes me love Jude Law, and Jack Black at the same time, with absolutely no shame. It is a fantastic film, Christmassy, but no so much so that you cant watch it all year - not that that has ever stopped me before! So go ahead, try and see if you can catch this on tv, or cheapy in Asda!

So this is it! The end of my favourites, but fear not, I should be back very soon with a new post! Hope you are all enjoying the snow, and having a good time getting excited for Christmas!

All I want for Christmas is youuuuu... or the urban decay Naked palette!

So, it is officially Christmas time! WOOHOO! I am a hyauuuuge Christmas fan, I love it all! I love snow (or did until Scotland came to a standstill with it! Grrr) I love Christmas trees, I love Christmas dinner, and - i wont deny it, I love the pressies! So this year I have conducted a mental list in my head of what i would love to try! (Now, I will put a disclaimer, what i write in this list will be much more extravagant than what I will be recieving, and i by no means expect all this haha! Although, you know, one or two would be nice :o)

So without further a do;

Urban Decay Naked Palette

I want this so bad! I saw it in Debenhams during the week while I was being robbed blind while buying Christmas presents, and there it was, hidden among a non make up section, I think it was fate, we were like magnets, destined to be together. It is simply beautiful! I am not overly adventurous with eyeshadow so this neutral selection of colours with the odd deep bronze and gold is perfect for me! It also comes with a mini bourbon and zero eyeliner joined together in perfect eyeliner harmony, in  a style reminicent to "Catdog". For those who are not aware - here they are --->


So ultimately, I feel it is a sin for this not to be in my collection, I reckon if I dont find this under the tree I will most definately be seeking it out in the January sales! Woopah!




Origins Clean energy cleansing oil

I have had my eye on this ever since I watched youtuber "Pixi2woo"'s video all about origins cleansers, this one stood out most to me. Now, I have (moreso in summer) oily/combination skin. So under normal circumstances the thought of putting oil on my face fills me with fear, however this does not, to accompany the many positive reviews I have heard on this I have had a little try on my hand in a shop. It is lovely! It leaves your skin (or my hand in this particular case) feeling really soft and clean! Plus, it is a rather large bottle compared to alot of the other Origins cleansers, which is an added bonus!



Paul and Joe Cat lipsticks!

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not a fan of cats, yes, when I see a picture of a cute kitten I like them, but when it comes to one next to me, they freak me out, I am a dog person through and through. However, when it comes to Paul and Joe lipsticks, I am a cat person all the way!! If you have not seen these you are about to be amazed, are you ready? have you prepared yourself? Ok, here we go!

I know. Are they not beautiful! I want a cat shaped lipstick!!!! I love the idea of whipping one of these bad boys out and seeing the reaction of my friends. "Oh this old thing?!" Will be my response. I have thought this through, in great detail. I. Love. These. End of.

Either; Viktor &Rolf flower bomb, Thierry Mugler Alien, Miss dior cherie, Harashuku lovers "G" or Lacoste Joy of pink.

To me perfume is often the hardest choice at Christmas, this tends to be something I get from my mum and dad, and I always look forward to adding to my ever growing perfume collection (one day i will show it to you im sure). So this year, I have a little list of possibilities, Flower bomb is something i have wanted for quite a while, I love it, and i recognise it instantly if someone has it on, it is loverly! The next is Alien, I have had a bottle of this before, and it was insane! It was so nice! I am not usually one for more "night time" deeper scents, but I simply adore this one! When it comes to Miss Dior cherie, this is a perfume that I kept spraying while on holiday in summer, so the smell keeps reminding me of New York, plus, it is such a cute bottle, which I would love to own. As for the harashuku lovers "G" I just smelled this for the first time this week, it is like summer in a bottle, It is just like sun tan lotion and coconut cocktails - my favourite smells combined in to one. Delicious. Lastly is lacoste Joy of pink. This was sprayed on me as i walked in to my local debenhams a few weeks ago, I personally find it so much nicer than the other lacoste "pink" perfumes. It seems to work nicely on my skin and doesnt seem as strong and obnoxious as I find Touch of pink to be.
So Santa, one of these would be lovely :D Thankyou!

Pandora Bead

While on holiday earlier this year i went with my friends (bar one who already had one) to buy pandora charm bracelets, the price in Dollars was the same as they were in Pounds! So it was well worthwhile. I personally prefer the coloured glass beads, with this one in particular having caught my eye. The 3 beads i have include a turquoise one, a green one and a silver clock. I love them, but i don't want my bracelet to be all within the green side of things, i want a multicoloured one!!

Flip camera

I am a huge Shaytards fan. if you dont know who they are, you should look them up on youtube, you wont regret it, they are possibly the coolest family EVER! Anyway, they do daily vlog videos using a flip camera, they are handheld camcorders, which are the size of a phone! I like the idea of being able to just take a wee video whenever, how lovely it would be to have videos of everything... well, I think it sounds darn lovely! Anywho, im not very technically minded, so i can't say much about this, but here is the white and pink one i like:



As well as this I would love anything from MAC, Lush, Accesorize, and The body Shop.
So, my list has finally come to an end! I hope all of you get whatever you have asked Mr Clause for and have a great holiday season!

Where have I beeeen??

Hello again strangers!
I can only apologise for my absence for ... oooh, a whole semester?? Yikes! I have just found it so hard to find the time to update this! But it is the Christmas holidays now so I have NO excuses! I must say I have really (somewhat pathetically) missed writing on this though! i am looking forward to having a wee gossip again about all the things I love to talk about! haha.
Next post will be up right after this one!

Tk Maxx - It's a love/hate relationship

So as a rule, i don't like shopping in TK maxx for clothes. I hate rummaging - it takes too long and I tend to get frustrated. Don't get me wrong I have some clothes from there, and I really like them, but I generally cant be bothered with the place. However. When it comes to their make-up and beauty products, I'm all over that place like a rash! I get frantic in the worry that if i don't buy it all I will never have the opportunity again and my life will be that little bit worse - melodramatic, but I feel you understand!
So, as I'm sure you have guessed by now, what I am trying to say is that I bought some make-up... and a cheeky hair mousse! I didn't buy a huge amount, but what i bought i LOVE!

So, the first thing I laid my eyes on were  some single stila eyeshadow for a steal at £3.99!!!! Now they were in pan form which made me think for a bit (obviously not too long - it's a cut throat world at "The Max"!) because it wasn't going to be that practical having them lying about in my collection. But then in the depths of the next shelf, I saw one empty palette left. Now, to me this is a sign, a sign that they were to be mine. So, out of about 4 pan eye shadows I only picked two, I was tempted to get them all, but I realise that I would have just been doing that to fill my palette, and realistically pink eyeshadow is not a look I can pull off. In the end the two I chose were, "Shore" and "Twig", and I love them. As you can see Shore is a beautiful grey/lilac/silver colour which has just the right amount of shimmer whereas Twig is a gorgeous deep mahogany burnt red colour. I have used these both together and let me tell you, they look amazing together!!

My next bargain was in the form of a pre made stila palette. Again, I found this beauty hidden at the back of a shelf of hair stuff, which makes me think someone hid it there to come back and get it later (We've all been there...) I can't deny I don't feel bad about taking it, in fact... I feel great! So, this palette is in "Marrakesh". The eye shadows in this are much smaller than the normal sized ones. While the above ones are just a bit bigger than a £2 coin, these ones are about the size of a penny. Not that I mind, still a great deal at £5.99!
So the colours in this include; (they don't have individual names... or none that I can see anyway) a light frosty pink colour ( I know I said I don't wear pink earlier, but hey, it came in the set!) A slightly more peachy/nude/pink colour, a gorgeous yellow gold, and a colour which looks suspiciously like my new "Twig" colour which i bought separately, perhaps slightly more brown though? I haven't tried these out yet, but I'll be sure to keep you guys posted with what I think of them!

My third find was a NYX palette, now I have never seen NYX in Scotland before but have always wanted to try it out! So when I saw this (again, it was the last one!) I felt it was my duty to purchase it! This was also £5.99. The palette is from the Caribbean collection and is named "I dream of Jamaica", now I think you should take a minute and think about what colours you would expect to be in this palette. Golds? Turquoise? No and No. This turns out to be a neutral palette! I would say it is more suited to be named "I dream of Paris". The set includes a neutral frosty peach, a soft shimmering white, a beautiful taupe colour, a matte grey/brown, and a matte black. Together this makes a very classy and wearable palette!

My final purchase was more bought for the scent than anything, it was an organix foaming coconut hair mousse. I think I paid £3.99 for this. Now, I won't lie, I don't feel it doing any difference to my hair, and realistically it isn't a great mousse. But I do still like it for 2 reasons. 1 - It smells like coconut - this is my favourite smell EVER! 2 - the mousse itself looks like bubbles from a bubble bath! How exciting! For my love of photos sake, here it is -

Overall I am over the moon with my loot! I'm afraid I can't guarantee that your Tk Maxx will have the same goodies, but who knows, yours might have better!

To end this post I will show you a picture of my three palettes set out all pretty :)

August Favourites! woohoo!

So today I have decided to take a page out of the thousands of youtube beauty gurus and do an August favourites!

Favourite number 1

So, my first and most favourite of the favourites is my new found love for burts bees lipbalm. The original beeswax one in particular. So, I had never owned one of these bad boys until about 3 weeks ago. Yes, you hear me right, until 3 weeks ago I had no idea what I was missing in this AMAZING lipbalm. (I had a go of my friends one when we were on holiday, and I dont know what it was, but I didn't take to it as much, the heat maby?) Now, I am a bit of a sucker for lipbalms, I buy them all, I recently dished out the dosh for a korres lip butter - good, but not worth the hype or money. This on the other hand was around £3.50 and worth every penny. I have literally become addicted to the feeling it has on your lips. It kind of makes them feel like they are tingling, but good tingling, not the lip venom blisteringly painful tingling - no no. So the long and the short of it is that i think you should go get one... now. : )

Favourite number 2
This favourite is a steal at £1 Yes! £1! It is a blush from the tesco line All about face in the colour coral. I bought this on a whim while I was in Tesco, and really I wasn't going to be heartbroken if it turned out to buy rubbish. However, this was not the case! It is a gorgeous coral colour which is very pigmented - and I mean VERY. I put this on thinking I would need to be heavy handed with it but it was on the contrary (my dear watson teehee) I have been having to use a much less dense brush to apply this to give just the right amount. One downside is that it is perhaps a little chalky, but I'l let that slide. Oh also - it is on a deal with the whole line where you can buy 4 items for £3! I know what I'm going to do next time im in tesco! (I couldn't find a picture im afraid - sorry guys!)


Favourite number 3
On the other end of the scale from my last favourite is my Clarins eyeshadow quad in so chic. Now at the hefty pricetag of £27.50 this was a big splurge item, which I ultimately felt guilty about buying... not now though! These quad comes with a frosted white, a khaki/grey/silvery colour, a deep plum/purple, and a sparkly black. It also comes with a spongetip applicator with two sides, one is just your run of the mill sponge tip but the other side is like a smudger sponge. I love that side! It's so handy! These eyeshadows are beautiful, nice and pigmented, long lasting, and they come in a pretty red pouch!



Favourite number 4
My fourth favourite of August is Co-Washing. This isn't really one specific product, but it's the way I have been washing my hair for the past month or so. What you do is, instead of washing your hair with shampoo then conditioner you just use conditioner. I start by using a cheap conditioner - my favourite is alberto balsam in sunkissed raspberry - and rubbing it quite hard into my roots, i leave that for about a minuit then rinse it out, I then use a slightly better conditioner - justnow it is a treseme one on the ends, i leave this for about 2 minuits then rinse it out. It sounds like it would leave your hair unclean feeling, and greasy but it doesn't! it makes your hair REALLY soft and in good condition, and personally I think it is making my hair grow! I do however wash my hair with shampoo every couple of weeks to make sure there isn't any build up in it. This is worth trying out if anything just to give your hair a special treat!


Favourite 5

My fifth and final favourite this month is Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume! yum yum yum!! This perfume is so fresh and clean smelling! It also oddly manages to make me feel quite calm. I bought this perfume in June on the airport back from my New York trip. Weirdly though I didn't use it much until a couple of weeks ago, and now I've been wearing it almost non-stop! The smell is quite flowery but with a bit of a fruity "kick" to it, all in all I highly reccomend going to try it out!

Well, in the words of Porky Pig - That's all folks!

Amy and the bets

This is my best friend Amy! After telling Amy about this blog I decided that the best thing to do would be to involve her in it by pestering her about doing a mini interview! So, as this is a beauty blog I thought it most fitting to ask her beauty related questions - as you do. So, here it goes!

(To give a bit of a background, Amy generally likes to have a natural make-up look often with just a touch of concealer and mascara - and she looks fantastic like this - grrr.)

Moi : So Amy, lets begin with your make-up bag. What are your make-up essentials?

Amy: Well, I never leave the house without Benefit Erase paste on , its got great coverage - and gets rid of any spots and redness on my face, so that is always close to hand![I should add now, that Amy is a Benefit addict, I believe she is a sucker for the packaging as we all are, its so dang pretty!] 

Another product I have recently fallen in love with is Benefit's Stay dont stray primer - in my opinion it is miles better than my previous too faced shadow insurance. I use this to prime my concealer as well as eyeshadow. I use it under my eyes as it gives a good brightening effect - even before concealer! 

The powder and blush I use are both from Lily Lolo - these were bought locally, so Im not too sure of availability elsewhere - however if you find them, I highly recommend them! 

I also carry Benefits Benetint (the original red one) as i like to use a touch of this as a blush, and also as a lipstain ( I would generally add a clear gloss on top if I use it on my lips as it is a touch drying) I like how you can control the intensity of it by how  much or little you apply. 

Finally I have a too faced glamour to go kit which I use just for the eyeshadows - particularly the bronze and purple. (Sorry folks I checked, they don't have names :( boo )

Moi: So, how about perfume, what are you favourites for day and night?

Amy: Well i tend to stick to one perfume for a few months then mix it up a bit, so at the moment it is DKNY Be Delicious - Green. This is so fruity and perfect for summer, and also perfect to brighten up winter days! My all time favourite perfume would have to be Hugo Boss Intense though - I use this from day through to night - but unfortunately I don't have any just now. (I swear I saw Amy look at me with puppy dog eyes at this point...) In terms of night time perfumes, the one i'm currently using is FCUK's Connect. 

CUE STORY

A month or so ago, I was at Amy's house, I sat, as I tend to do on the floor, however on this fateful day I sat in front of her bookcase - which on the top shelf is where she keeps all her perfumes (On this occasion very messily! As in, they weren't standing up right, as in they were balancing!). Now, for those of you who don't know what FCUK Connect looks like - let me insert a picture.

Yes, that is metal around it, and yes she has the biggest bottle... 

So as I was sitting innocently I got the fright of my life as a shower of perfume bottles and lotions fell on me, this bad boy managing to hit me right in the head! I cried. Alot. I also got a bump. A big bump.

For this reason, I hate this perfume, I hate it more than any other.

On that note we end our interview, Thankyou Amy for letting us delve into your make-up and perfume world! I for one am very grateful!

Jenni xx

P.s. Remeber Amy's name, she is currently writing a book, remember where you knew her first!

Shiny Happy new stuff!

So, a few days ago, a Monday in fact,I  found myself lucky enough to be off work, but unlucky enough to be off work alone. It was the day my best friend went to visit her sister in England, my other best friend lives 2 hours away -which is no use,  and my other also very good friend was moving house, and of-course it was a Monday, so the majority of my phone book were working. This unfortunately equalled a lonely me. Which in turn meant a self pitying me. So, I thought to myself in a forceful and unfriendly manner, "what are you going to do today?! " "Well..." I answered " Im going to go shopping!".
Yes, I went shopping - alone. I won't lie, I quite enjoyed this experience of "flying solo". The only set back to my adventure was a limited supply of petrol, so instead of going to my main shopping town I went to a much smaller, much closer town.
"So get on with it, what did you buy?!" I here you ask.
Well. Firstly, I bought what is positively my favourite hand cream. Soap and Glory Hand Food. In the smell Marshmallow... yes, marshmallow!mmmmmm! For your viewing pleasure I will now insert a picture of said hand cream, and marshmallows for comparison.

This hand cream is the most effective I have ever used, it leaves my hands soft and smelling, well, edible, for a relatively long time! (Bought from boots from about £2.25 I think!)

next on my shopping list was loreal telescopic mascara. I had heard great reviews of this on make up videos, but sadly I was dissapointed. In its defence it is fantastic at lengthening, which i do want and enjoy, but I also feel that I need some volume too, but unfortunately this offered me none, it is perhaps because i bought the  clean definition version... but anyway, it has not gone to waste, I have been using it over my holy grail buxom lash to add length.

So, while I was at the loreal section of boots I noticed Cheryl Cole (or do we say Tweedy now?) looking back at me. She was telling me to buy one more product so that I could have her free box of make-up and such. Ofcourse, if Cheryl Cole asks you to do something, (especially if free make-up is in the equation) I say, do it! So I quickly found something that would fit the bill nicely. A loreal trio of grey, silver and black eyeshadow. Now I am normally a bronze and gold eyeshadow girl, but recently I have been tempted with these cooler colours. So I purchased it, and was pleasently surprised, it is very nice quality with a nice texture that isn't too chalky - I hate that!

In terms of the free gift I was pleased with its contents. It gave me three full sized products. A light gold, shimmer eyeshadow, a brown kohl pencil, a gold nailpolish, then a little pot of face cream, and a sachet of there matte mousse foundation - in a medium colour which is too dark for my near translucent skin.Hmph.

So in all, I was a happy customer with my baby shopping spree, and all for around £20. Not bad says I, not bad at all!

routines routines routines

So here is yet another post today. As i'm sure you can notice I am trying to bulk this blog out!
So I thought I would write what make-up I have been putting on as my general every day make-up routine.

To start off - At the moment I have been using beauty flash balm from Clarins to begin (as inspired by beauty mecca's blog) Now, I love this, but I have to admit I think i am using it wrong! Ive been putting it on everyday which I think is too much for two reasons.
1. I believe this isn't an everyday moisturiser, and that makes me think it wont be as appreciated when I actually need it.
2. It costs a bloody fortune! Therefore using it every day will dramatically limit how long this will be in my possession!

Anywho, so as i said, i begin with beauty flash balm. I then put on neutrogena healthy skin foundation in classic ivory.  Unfortunately I dont believe you can buy this in the UK, I found it on a trip to New York (best week of my life!) and decided to stock up with a couple of bottles! This foundation is great for my skin, it leaves a nice glowy finish with a medium coverage.Perfect.

After this i apply a wee bit of mac strobe cream to my cheekbones. This is sooooo good!!

Then it is the turn of MAC's peaches blush. Oh. My. Goodness. This is the blush of all blush. The creme de la creme. You would think that it is just a plain flat peach blush, but no. It gives pale girls the perfect peaches and cream look, and darker girls that gorgeous peach "pop" ( i hate using that to describe make up, but hey, its true) to the cheeks.

I fill in my brows with just a rimmel pencil, then put on urban decays primer potion in sin - not in preparation for eye shadow, more so just to keep from my eyeliner smudging, I then use blacktrack fluidline on my top lashes in a flicky shape in an attempt to make my almond eyes look a smidgen bigger! To top all this off I put on lashings of bare esentuals buxom lash and some clear or pinky lipstick or lipgloss - which at the moment is Lancomes marshmallow juicy tube - yum.

This is my basic make up routine for days when i have work or am not doing anything special. I will save a more elaborate routine for another day me thinks!

Jean Paul Gaultier Classique =YUM!

Jean Paul gaultier classique is possibly the nicest and most grown up perfume in my posession. I first came across this when a girl I was friendly with in school wore it all the time. Now, in my opinion this was wasted on her. She was simply too young to appreciate it, and she "scooshed" it about 8 times with every application *this saddens me* - this also meant that you ALWAYS smelled her before you saw her. I on the other hand have learned to treasure it and have grown to understand that every "scoosh" (there really isn't a better word is there?) of this *liquid gold* should be savoured. 

So, now that we have my feelings on this product made clear I will give those of you who have yet to have the fortune of smelling it a little taster of what it is like. Now, to give the official "high notes, medium notes,  wee notes..." and whatever other notes we are supposed to smell in this... here they are ;"Orange Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Italian Mandarin, Star Aniseed, Orchid, Iris, Ylang-Ylang, Indian Ginger, Soft Vanilla, Woody Amber"

Read more: http://www.basenotes.net/ID10211853.html#ixzz0xENASRFe
However, if you are at all like myself, this means... well, not a lot, as more often that not these smells are no where to be seen...or sniffed. So in my own words what you are smelling is a very warm vanilla-ey, flowery, and bubble bath-y (in my opinion - I of course always suggest giving it a whiff yourself) smell which warms up on your skin, and i often think this smells different on different people. At first it gives off quite an alcohol-ey smell but within 15 minutes it is beautiful! I often put it on before a shower as by the time I come out it is more of a lingering soft smell, which is just enough to remind you its there... which is how I like it!

So be sure to have a wee test of this next time your in debenhams... or wherever you may go! I promise it is well worth it!

A new day a new beauty blog

So today is the day I have decided to finally make a blog! It has been (at least) a year since I have been ritually reading other peoples beauty and fashion blogs and been in awe of them. For some reason it had never occurred to me to make my own. In having a room full of beauty products and make up which I have collected over the years I feel I have a good starting point to begin reviewing make up/ perfumes/ and all other lotions and potions which are of interest to the beauty obsessed community! So keep posted for a follow up of bloggy posts! The first of which will be coming to you... in about... 15 minutes?

To brighten this up, here is a nice picture I found for you to look at :) If you're anything like me, you will be scanning this picture seeing if you own any of it too! ( I feel I should mention - unfortunately this is not my loot :( )
