My Favourite Lipsticks

Recently I've become a little obsessed with lipsticks, I love how they can be subtle and natural and other times they can completely change and complete your whole look. I don't have a huge collection of lipsticks but I have got 8 definite favourites that I wear regularily. Some are new purchases and some are extremely old and they range from dark reds to nudes♥.


Elizabeth Arden Color Intrigue Effects Lipstick Sun Blush Sheer



Barry M 101


Estée Lauder Pure Color Lipstick Candy 116


Bourjois Docteur Glamour 23 Orange Charnel


L'Oreal Color Riche 164 Rouge Concorde


No7 Stay Perfect 55 Glace


Natural Collection Moisture Shine Apple Blossom


Estée Lauder Pure Color Lipstick 123 Fig


I like to wear these lipsticks on a daily basis, Glace, Rouge Concorde and Fig are mainly for nights out and the rest I usually wear for the day time. I never really alternate my lipsticks for the different seasons as I tend to just wear what I feel suits my mood best.
Lipsticks are definitely a staple in my make up collection and I'm looking to expand my collection further, Are there any Lipsticks that you can reccommend I buy?
 Hope you've all had a wonderous Monday and enjoy what's left of the evening ♥.

Hey There Big Spender...Or Not So Much?

For the first time in a very long time I went shopping :) I was determined to not spend too much and it actually worked!! I started off in one of my favourite shops LUSH. I could spend hours in there and I could end up spending a lot of money, but sadly I could only pop in there as my boyfriend was getting impatient ha! I bought:

 ♥ Bubblegum LIp Scrub. LUSH say's: The pink all things girly, bubblegum flavour lip scrub. Clears dead skin and flakiness from lips, leaving them moisturised and smooth.Keeps lips in tip top condition, for kissing, pouting, talking or anything else you wish to do with them. 

 ♥ Happy Hippy Shower Gel. LUSH say's: This is the ultimate gel for waking you up in the morning or for keeping you up all night. Use it on your hair for wafts of grapefruit throughout your morning

 ♥ Sugar Scrub. LUSH says: The fennel oil in our Sugar Scrub is there because it is said to be a great diuretic, draining water and toxins from the tissues. We’ve also added lavender oil and fresh ginger to maximize the effects on clogged skin that needs a bit of extra help.Use on hips, bums and areas where you want to wake up your circulation to exfoliate the surface and stimulate the tissues.

♥  Rub Rub Rub Shower Scrub. LUSH says:
When it comes to scrubs, some of us like it rough, whilst some of us prefer the smooth operators. 
How much you go for it with Rub Rub Rub is up to you. If you want a gentle scrub, use it under running water like other shower gels. If you like it rough, get a big handful straight from the pot, Rub Rub Rub it on a dry body, then into the shower. All that salt makes this perfect for washing hair and adding volume. It’s also great as a scrub for tired feet.

♥ I was also given a sample of Peace Massage Bar. LUSH say's:  For times of turmoil, or just for when you’re having a bad day, Peace massage bar was designed to calm the storm and bring peace to your world. 




Sorry for the crappy photo yet again


I then went to Superdrug and picked up a couple of things that were on offer and it would have been rude not to buy them:
 ♥ Barry M lipstick in shade 101
 ♥ Me Me Me Beat the blues sunbeam irridescent complexion illuminator
 ♥ 2true smooth pressed matte pressed powder in shade 1
 ♥ 2true all over natural bronzing powder in shade 1
 ♥ 2trure effortless eyeliner in No1 ( all 2true cosmetics are currently 3 for £5 so I thought I'd give them a go)
I couldn't get a decent picture of any of these products as my camera was misbehaving.. sorry!

Sorry for just listing the products but I haven't tried everything that I bought on this shoping trip so I'm unable to give an honest review on each of the products but I'm sure I've bought something that I'm going to ramble on about in a post soon.  ♥
