Quick Facts Tag

When I first started reading blogs, some of my favorite posts to read were the 'tag' posts. I love finding out random facts about other people and their lives. (I'm a bit of a nosy parker). I find it gives a blog a much more personal touch if I can relate to the writer and know a few things about them as a person. It's all good bashing out a load of product reviews but I find them a much more enjoyable read if I 'know' (hypothetically speaking) the person who is writing them. I've seen this 'Quick Facts' post appear on my Dashboard a few times over the past few days so I thought I would give it a whirl myself.

MUA Haul and Review

I am off College today so I thought I would post a very out of date MUA haul. 'There's no getting away from the fact this is the best priced cosmetics collection available in the country'. MUA is famous with UK bloggers for its £1 prices so I thought I would dive in and tell you all. The packaging is rather plain, but who’s complaining at £1? At least it’s not tacky right? Plus I have decided to cut down on the amount I write for reviews as I personally hate coming across huge paragraphs and would rather points! All of these products were £1.

I bought two eyeliners (shades 6&7).

Positives- Cheap, well pigmented

Negatives- starts to flake after an hour, takes 2-3 minutes to dry, applicator and product thickness means application can be difficult/ uneven.

6/10

Shade 6- Shade 7

Bronzer Shade 1 – Lightest shade

Positives- Very sparkly!

Negatives- Quite a gritty texture, more bronze than gold. Glitter leaves your cheeks very quickly!

7/10

Blusher Shade 2

Positives- Perfect for my skin tone (fair to medium), gave a natural flushed look.

Negatives- N/A

10/10

Lipstick Shade 1

Lipstick Shade 3- does tend to bleed and is very pink!

Lipstick Shade 8

Lipstick Shade 9

Remind me of e.l.f essential lipsticks.

Positives- Easy to apply, pigment noticeable, look more expensive, moisterising.

Negatives- Need to top up often as it does transfer.

8/10

Shade 1, 3, 8, 9

Pearl Eyeshadow Shade 8

Positives- Very pigmented, blends easily

Negatives- This colour is quite bright, not really my style

9/10

Sorry about the lack of posting, my charger is still broken and I have to place it in a particular way which is so frustrating! Plus I’ve had my cello exam which went good I think... Don’t want to jinx it!

Just another Collective Haul...

Hey everyone! This is a simple haul for you all, hope you enjoy!

So in my Village, there's a shop which is all about Yankee Candles called UNO, which I LOVE! So I bought this sample for £1.05 and a Yankee candle holder for £4.99 and it is soo gorgeous!!

This second item is from an independent jewelry boutique called Eden and this was £10. It sells the most beautiful, vintage, individual jewelry around... I was in great need of an earrings holder.

So today I went to Matalan with my Mum and bought a few sale items and bits and bobs (thanks to mum who paid for a lot!)...

I needed a soap dish (I know- random) just so I can take my LUSH soaps back to my room! £3

I found this top in the children's section and is a size 16 so it should fit! Was £10 Now £5

This next top is for summer and has a lovely floral print. Was £10

This sheer shirt with a peter pan collar has female deers on it and feels gorgeous! Was £14 Now £7

When I saw this jumper, I just thought of Happy Feet and fell in love! Was £20 Now £10

I bought these shoes for £10 as I want to stock up on pumps for Spring!

Lastly I bought my other half a DVD that he's been longing too watch again to relive some childhood memories, so I couldn't resist! £4.99)

Hope you enjoyed my quick haul! I know I am behind on my MUA haul and review- so sorry, I shall do it ASAP. I promise! Enjoy the rest of the week bloggers,

Valentines Day Summary and Lush Gift Set Review

Hello my gorgeous followers! I just wanted to share with you a quick post about my Valentines day (if you're interested). This is a picture of my boyfriend, Grant and I. His shirt is from Superdry and my dress was a handpicked Christmas present from him, from Lipsy- I'm so lucky! We went to ASK in town and had a lovely meal, unfortunately we only had two hours or so together because my man had work in the morning, but it was still amazing!

I woke up on Tuesday and found that a huge box had been delivered for me! Turns out I had received my first sent flowers to the door- half a dozen pink (my favorite colour) roses! So here they are on my desk!

Also, before we went out, he gave me another present! A Lush Valentines Gift set which I have been going on about because I just think they are so adorable and the packaging is to die for!

So the box contains four items from Lush-

1. It's Raining Men- Shower and hair gel.
This is my new favorite sent from Lush. The gel is thick and honey scented, it feels luxurious and a little always goes a long way from these bottles! Can't get enough of this scent!
10/10



2. Soft Coeur Massage Bar
This massage bar smells identical too Honey I Washed The Kids, which I love, so if you're like me, I urge you to buy this! It's quite pricey but the smell is to die for! It smells like honey and toffee covered caramel candies with chocolates in the middle. So YUMMY! The only thing is, this massage bar seems to take so much longer to warm up and use.
8.5/10

 3. Sweetheart Soap
This limited edition soap is definitely not too miss! It's very creamy and feels gorgeous on the skin. It also leaves a long lasting scent, which I think is important. It is “a sensual blend of jasmine, mandarin and vanilla to gently inflame the passions and get things moving in the right direction.” – very suitable for Valentines Day or any romantic night!

4. Silky Underwear Dusting Powder
This is like a perfume that leaves you sparkling and silky! Grated cocoa butter melts onto the skin for a silky sensation and the powders don't make your skin feel greasy. The scent is jasmine and vetiver. The name is perfect for the smell, it's very sensual and seductive- perfect for a night in with the other half!
10/10

 I bought him a jar of love hearts and a 501 movie checklist book, both from TK Maxx...

I really couldn't ask for a better guy, even if there was such thing!
