Put down them eyelash curlers!

Hello everyone! 

Today is the day where you can finally say 
"eyelash curlers... I don't need you" 


The RRP is £19.50
BUT (don't panic) at the moment its 10% off at FeelUnique making it £17.55 so grab it while its on offer!

Recently, everyone has been talking about Benefit and their new mascara Launch of Roller Lash. 
There has been a huge amount of hype about it, it's been the mascara everybody has been talking about and eventually - I gave in. I strolled proudly over to the Benefit stand and popped it into my basket un-aware of what God send I had just picked up. 

The next morning I thought "right, let's give you a run for your money" and left the eyelash curlers in my pot.. With my heart sinking slightly thinking "is this a good idea?" & I'll be honest I haven't gone back! The formula is gorgeous and leaves your lashes with a beautiful black coat, the brush grips onto every single tiny eyelash you have and rolls them up giving the most gorgeous natural curl making your eyes pop!
No tugging or pulling on your eyelashes with a curler anymore!! *wooohoo!*
The formula doesn't flake, is very buildable and lasts right up until you take it off! 



All they need to release now is a waterproof version! ;)

White & Grey

Hello everyone & welcome back to my blog! 

Today post is a little different, its slightly more fashion based.
Recently, I've been loving the colour schemes light grey and white, I really think they work for spring/summer and I've noticed that when I've been out and about shopping the majority of things I reach for are light grey and white. 
I think these colours work beautifully and look really classy together which really works now we're heading into brighter, sunnier days. 


First up was River Island, This is one of my favourite high street brands. The quality of there clothes and products are fantastic and their clothes never ever disappoint me as they're always so flattering and the cuts they use are beautiful.  
Ive recently been longing for a pair of white shoes, searching high and low, and when I walked into River Island I saw these and had to get my hands on them! They're so gorgeous and really do go with everything which is perfect and i love the point at the toe giving them class and elegance -  Ive got a feeling they'll be my summer essential this year. 
Along with the Satchel, This colour is seriously stunning. Its a gorgeous light grey and just goes with everything with a lovely silver lining, making it easy for you to actually see everything inside it. It also comes with an adjustable strap and have hooks on the back to transform it into a rucksack which is always useful. Its a perfect size and also is made out of really sturdy material so it doesn't loose its shape at all when all us girls fill our bags with too much stuff! 

After that I ventured into Zara, now along with other things (which where a pair of white jeans and a grey jumper) I got drawn to their jewellery stand .. something of which I never do! Thats when I saw this beautiful chain and pearl necklace, I've been searching for a silver statement necklace for a very long time now and all the ones I've seen has always been gold, which doesn't suit me as much so when I saw this I literally Squealed with excitement and Its a gorgeous finishing touch to an outfit. 
Then, I decided to make my way over to the perfume stand 
-again, another stand I've never really gone over to before and picked up the Femme Perfume, Its In a really beautiful white square bottle with rose gold writing and a rose gold lid. Its one of my current favourites its so womanly and quite sexy with notes of sandalwood, vanilla, caramel and musk. 

What are your current favourites? 
Hope you enjoyed the post!

GlamEyes - Eyeliner Review

Hello everybody! 

Today I will be talking about my favourite eyeliner (in the whole wide world..!) 
It's affordable, jet black, lasts through the wind and rain up until you take it off with no pesky, time consuming touch-ups throughout the day.



Its of course the amazing Rimmel London GlamEyes Eyeliner. Standing on the shelves at the price of just £5.29 you can't say no! You can pick this product up from your local pharmacy for example Boots or Superdrug. 
What I really love about this product and makes me go back to it everytime is the size of the applicator, my favourite look is a CatEye flick, and this thin brush makes it simply effortless and quick! 
You may be a little worried about the size of the actual product as it seems quite small and you may think it'll last a week and it'll be gone but - because the brush is so small it picks up very little product, making this eye liner last months at a time.
As this is a highstreet product and at the price of £5.29 you can't expext flawless product quality. I love my eyeliner jet black and striking so I tend to do two layers of product and if you like a more natural look one layer will be perfect.


Overall, for a cheap grab and go eye liner it's faultless. I use this everyday, I've been using this liner for about a year now and I'm currently on my 3rd bottle which is fantastic for £5.29. I've recommended this product to a few of my friends and they love it as much as I do! 

What's your favourite eyeliner?

Top 3: Lipsticks for Valentines


Welcome back!

As its the day of love tomorrow (Valentines Day) I wanted to share with you my top 3 lipsticks to make those lips of yours even more kissable! 

No.3

So I'm going to start with my third favourite: Kate by Rimmel London Red Nose Red!
The reason why this is in my top 3 is because a little goes a long way, the colour of the lipstick is a really beautiful deep red, it goes with any complexion, its sheer and is very moisturising. I bought this lipstick for £5.49 and what really unique,  £1.67 of the price goes to Comic Relief! So doing 'your bit' for charity while having lovely lips :-) 


About a week ago,  I uploaded a photo of Red Nose Red onto Instagram and it was re-posted on Rimmel official Instagram page and I have had over 2,400 likes!! Here is the pic that they re-posted:

No.2

My next red lippy is for all the ladies who prefer a liquid lipstick, rather than an actual lipstick.
I've been using this product for a few weeks now and have been extremely impressed it the results, its really moisturising and feels really lovely on application. 
I personally have never had a bad experience with the brand Bourjios and they never fail to impress me with their new releases!  


The colour is extremely buildable, it starts off sheer so its fantastic for people just starting out with red lipstick or growing their confidence with it and with the price being at £8.99 you can't go wrong!

No.1

Of course, saving the best until last! Its my favourite red lipstick of all time! 
The one I grab when i'm running out the door as I know it'll look amazing, with any outfit, any makeup look and whatever the weather!


It's a gorgeous, bright red with blue under-tones giving the illusion of whiter teeth. 
As this lipstick is Matte, meaning its got no shine or 'added moisture' its very important you line your lips and condition them before applying this so it applies smoothly. 
The wonderful thing about matte lipsticks is that they will not budge, whether its having you morning cup of coffee, going for a fancy dinner or having a cheeky valentines kiss, it won't move. 
So, pushing the £15.50 price tag aside, MAC lipsticks are 110% worth every penny and they will forever be on the tip-top of my list. 

Swatches


I hope you all enjoyed the post,
& have a wonderful weekend!
