Boots Haul

Bourjois Healthy Mix in Light Vanilla £9.99
Soap and Glory Supercat Eyeliner £6
Revlon Colour Burst Matte Balm in Elusive £7.99

Ordinarily, the combination of these products (all recommended to me by youtubers) would total £23.98, but thankfully Boots had a 3 for 2 sale on, and I had a £5 off voucher! So I only paid £12.98 for these 'more on the expensive side' drugstore products which I feel I will fall in love with!

Having a Retro Moment

I got over excited about my new sunglasses so I decided to include them in a post! My glasses were only £1.59 with free shipping from China on eBay (exact ones here), they arrived in around 1 and a half weeks which is reasonable delivery from China! I particularly love them because they look like the glasses they wear in Wicked- I'm an utter Wicked fangirl, it's an obsession. The lipstick I'm wearing is Soap & Glory FabuLipstick in Blush Pink which looks more purple toned in person, and I have Models Own Banana Split on my nails.

Sleek Blush by 3 in Pumpkin

Sleek Blush by 3 in Pumpkin £9.99

P Pie, Squash, Lantern £9.99

Well this review has been a long time coming! I bought this product in November along with Sleek Face Form and i-Divine in Oh So Special yet I hadn't fully tried it till recently. This trio contains 3 highly pigmented blushes: one shimmery, one pearl and one matte. I still haven't found a use for Lantern (the orange shade) as I don't think it suits my skin tone well at all! However, I have used P Pie (the red shade) in my Zombie Makeup post (here) and I love it! I have found that these blushes are easy to blend out and you don't need alot of product due to the pigmentation. I think these blushes are definitely for summer and aren't for the faint hearted- I'll stick to my everyday blush of Rose Gold-Sleek (Nars- Orgasm dupe) for the time being.

Mac Lipstick - Crosswires

Mac Crosswires £15

Well here it is- the third addition to my Mac lipstick collection (it is slowly growing...tediously). After spending a whole night humming and harr-ing over which lipstick to get (it's a long process), I had a sort of epiphany and decided that I wanted a brighter lipstick in my collection. Thus, Crosswires (Cremesheen) was bought. In the bullet, the colour looks more corally and sheeny whereas it looks brighter on my lips.

'On lips' swatch

I actually think this is the first image on the blog taken at this angle! As you can see, the colour looks more yellow toned on the lips than it is in the bullet. This isn't neccessarily a bad point, but it isn't to be expected.Sadly, I feel that this colour looks better on more olive skin tones than it does on my pale complexion- maybe I can try this again in the summer! On the other hand, this lipstick has made me braver in looking for brighter lipsticks for the summer season. I'm thinking that blue toned colours suit me more so I want to try Mac's Lady Danger, Girl about Town and Morange- what do you think? Admittedly, it looks like the colour has a frost finish in the image above yet it doesn't in person. I have found that this particular shade lasts alot longer on the lips than my other Cremesheen lipsticks; maybe that's because it is a bolder colour? Also, this is the only Cremesheen that I have that gets stuck on my teeth during the day (not on application) which confuses me slightly.

I'm always interested in seeing what you have to say and how your comments can help me/other readers, so please comment and we can have a chit chat!

I'm going to Tunisia!

This summer, for the first time, I am going on a plane and actually staying in a hotel! For the past 8 years, I have been to France in the caravan and it has got too tedious. After years of persuasion, I have managed to sway my dad into going on a 'proper holiday', as I like to call it. In the image above, you can see the hotel we are staying in- it is called Sentido Rosa Beach and it's in a beach-side city of Tunisia called Skanes, Sousse. For all you people, like my brother, who don't know where Tunisia is, it's on the north coast of Africa bordering Algeria and Libya. You can see below, the town we are staying in.

On first glance, the city looks quite run down but I think that's due to the sandy colours of the buildings, not sure! I have a massive dream to go parasailng so that's definitely on the list! I will be leaving on the 1st of August (which is in less than 100 days now!) after I have my prom and leave school.  Just after I come back, I will be getting my GCSE results then doing a skydive! Terrifying, I know! But I am seriously so excited to finally get on a plane and get out of the continent for a change! Oh and to also have some hot weather and burn my pale british skin!

Have any of you been to Tunisia before?
