MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquers

Ok I admit it - I have a bit of a thing for lip products...I just can't help it!  I think that changing your lip colour up is an easy way to keep your makeup looks from becoming too samey and boring. Plus it's a great way of looking polished when you don't have much time to spend on blending eyeshadows for that flawless smoky eye - you can just throw on a lip colour and you're good to go!

I have far too many lip products, but can never resist a shiny new one. Or in this case, a not so shiny one! I really like a matt lip - I think they are a fresh and modern take on bright colours, and make it easier (well, less scary!) to wear bright colours during the day. 

Home is where the heart is...

A bit of a change from the normal makeup posts today - but I picked up a few things for the house and thought I would share, in case any of you are interested! Personally, I love a good nosy around home stores at the weekend, planning out my dream home and maybe occasionally picking up a couple of pieces here and there, and I enjoy seeing what other people have in their homes - it gives me some inspiration! 

Let's Get Naked...

No no no, not THAT kind of naked! (Although if you are Jensen Ackles, then that kind of naked is definitely allowed. Or preferred. Actually, make that mandatory... Anyway, as you were...!) I'm talking about THIS kind of Naked...

Seasonal Skin Care - Your Skin Needs You!

First off - I must apologise for my horrendously long absence! Just when I was finding my feet with this whole blogging thing, I had one helluva busy summer (not in a good way!) and just couldn't find the time or inspiration. BUT - I have just turned 25 (oh my GOOOODDD where did that come from, surely I am still 17, no?!) and I am most definitely back with avengeance. So, sorry to keep you waiting - I hope you enjoy!

Recently, my summer long, fail proof skin care routine had been letting me down big time - I was suddenly getting super oily after only a couple of hours wearing my trusty Stay Matte BB cream, or Maybelline Eraser concealer, and I was having break outs all over the shop. Not a pretty sight! And for the life of me, I just couldn't understand why...
