My current favourite Lipsticks/Lipbalms!

Hello everyone, I'm freezing! In the south of England where I live, the temperature has dropped from a lovely 18oC to what feels like -18oC. It's raining, its very, very windy and apparently on Monday, we are meant to have a hurricane. A hurricane. It's England not Siberia, what is happening to the world! At an attempt to warm up, I am sat here eating a bowl of porridge and I must say, it's quite delicious! :)

So now its moving into the colder months, I have ditched my summery lipsticks for some more autumnal colours, except for 1 or 2 I really, really, super, duper love!! In Autumn I tend to wear warmer colours such as reds, nudes, dark pinks and sometimes, some sneaky corals and the odd barbie pink!


 Left to Right: Mac Mehr, Rimmel Moisture Renew Oxford Street Fushia, Maybeline Colour Sensation Coral Pop (420), Maybeline Baby Lips Pink Punch and MUA Shade 2.

**MUA (Make Up Academy) by Superdrug are currently having a 3 for 2 sale!**
I shall also try and keep my reviews relatively brief as not to bore you! 

Starting Off with MAC, I went into MAC a week or so ago looking for a nice autumnal lipstick, I swatched about 30 and walked out with 1 in the shade Mehr, it really is Gorgeous, if you want to read more, about it you can read my post on it here!

Secondly is the Rimmel Moisture Renew, I have a couple of these now and I think this one is my favourite, it's good value for money (£6.49) but if you ask me, its not moisturising at all, in fact, quite the opposite, I find it very drying on the lips and that's even with a moisturiser underneath. However, its a beautiful vivid colour and because it is quite drying I find it quite matte.

Next is our friend Maybeline, I don't have much to say about this other than its lovely, Its a little bit on the pricey side, around 80p less than the Revlon Lip buttter range but its pigmented, it lasts and is super hydrating.

The Baby Lips were much anticipated in the UK. They had been out in America for ages, so long, there were a couple of Collections out including the Originals and the Electro. About 6 months ago Baby Lips arrived and I love them, they make my lips visibly healthier and the scents, Oh my god they are just bchbcbvfubt *keyboard spaz*, amazing! Not to mention the lovely bold packaging. I just really hope they do decide to bring the Electro collection over to the Uk because I am desperate to try them! 

Lastly its little old MUA, the bargain of them all! MUA lipsticks are available online and instore at Superdrug, and they retail at just £1! I love the range of colours they have. They glide onto the lips and are incredibly smooth. however, They do come off quite easily, long lasting is definitely what I wouldn't use to describe them. But taking into consideration the price of the lipstick and the pigmentation, I would recommend these. MUA have other great value products worth checking out here!





Where did you come from Hello Kitty! :)

I hope you enjoyed this rather long post and if you did stick to the end, thank you! 
What is your favorite lipstick? Anything I should try out!

Ickle Baby Bot


I went shopping in Lush on Sunday.. I may have purchased a couple of things too..

Ok I confess, I bought 11 bath bombs, and yes I know this may sound excessive, but when you are there in Lush, the smell affects your brain, makes you do things you probably wouldn't
normally do... it's like they put  'Buy me'  essence into each bath bomb.

 So yes I purchased:

  • Ickle Baby Bot
  • Space Girl
  • Honey Bee
  • Sex Bomb
  • Dragon' Egg
  • Happy Pill  (makes me very happy!)
  • Phoenix rising
  • Fizz Banger
  • Rose Queen
  • Think Pink
  • Butter Ball
Many of these I have already used before apart from Butter Ball, Space Girl and Ickle Baby Bot. Last night, I had a bath *Gasp*, and used Ickle Baby Bot and it is incredible. I currently have a cold and have been having trouble sleeping, sometimes taking a couple of hours to get off too sleep and with this bath bomb, I literally passed out the second my head hit the pillow, (maybe a slight exaggeration, but nevertheless a damn sight faster than usual). This is down to the 3 sleep inducing oils, Chamomile, Lavender and Sandle Wood.


Lush claims that its Ickle Baby Bot will 'Exterminate tiredness and send your baby off to the land of nod' which it 100% does. I love this Bath Bomb and would definitely repurchase, seeing as it is only £1.95 and is by far one of my favorite. 

Besides, who wouldn't want an adorable, blue robot to spruce up your bath time! :)
