Chit Chat, Sick Before Xmas, Failing at Blogmas | BLOGMAS day 18

I'm sick,
Well right at this very moment I am sitting in bed starting to create a pyramid with my snotty tissues (TMI) sorryy well it's the truth it have pretty much failed with BLOGMAS I think I have only actually made 10 proper BLOGMAS posts you may wonder why I always writes BLOGMAS in caps? Well it's because my phone autocorrects it, so this doesn't mean every time I type it I feel the need to spend ten minutes putting all the letters in caps, I'm sorry this post is just a bit of ramble but on the bright side it's one week too christmas asdfghjkl soooo excited. I'm praying that this illness leaves me before then because I have semi lost my voice and I sound like a squirrel on helium! Which is not very christmasy....

Holly Go Lighlty Bubble Bar Review and Demo | BLOGMAS Day 10

Well a hearty hello to you 
I can't believe it's the 10th of December how did that happen already I'm about to burst with festive excitement as today I bring you anothe lush review which I am determined to get done by the big day aka Christmas Day but Let's just get into it!





This is actually one of my favourite products from this years line it smells so christmasy it's like all the things to do with Christmas have mushed together to create lush's holly go Lighlty bubble bar. So although this is the most expensive product I have reviewed at £4.95 it's actually the best value for your money because it's  bloomin huge you can get a good four deliciously bubbly baths out of it which is sooo good. Another note is althought it's covered in glitter which I'm not the biggest fan of because trying to get the glitter of the bath and myself can become quite a chore when it comes to glittery products, this one does not transfer on to the skin and you just need to wash down the bath with a bit of water to get the glitter off, no hard scrubbing down of the bath thank goodness, but the colour of the bath is a dark green colour and creates loads of bubbles and the scent lingers for a few hours after the bath which is always a bonus.

My Christmas Wish List 2014

Hello M'loves

     Okay, so you have probably just read the title and went wwhat? its far to early for Christmas talk but yesterday I was minding my own business watching TV and the coca cola Christmas ad came on, so it was officially Christmas in my mind and then I had to instagram #ShamelessSelfPromotion go ahead and gives us a wee follow on insta if you want, so apologies if you are one of those people who cant talk about Christmas till December you might want to skip this post.

     Also quick disclaimer I do realise I am asking for a lot of expensive things but I will definitely not get all of these its just so my parents have a good selection so they can pick and chose or even if something is out of stock, so without further a do lets get started.

Drugstore Makeup Haul | Katikins

Well hello there,
Today I made a quick pit-stop at boots with my madre and did some damage. Basically boots had a special deal on, when you spend 50 pounds you get 12 pounds worth of points which sounded right up my alley so I bought 50 pounds worth of makeup, which I definitely did not need but I thought I would share my purchases with y'all.



(Little Sneaky Group Shot)


Ok, Confession this is actually my third tube of this concealer and I'm sure you all of heard of it, it is the collection (2000) lasting perfection concealer and in my opinion is one of the best drugstore concealers out there at an absolutely bargainous price of £4.19 


Next is actually a bit of daring product for me I have very fair skin so I'm always scared of using bronzer but after my friend Ella torturing me for weeks to buy one I finally did it, I went for a very natural looking one although its appearing a lot darker on camera than it is in reality, so if you want to get a better idea what shade it is you might have to go in to a store to look at it but this was a pricey little product, well for drugstore at least, it was £10 but I suppose it will last me quite awhile. 
( its Lo'real Glam bronze Bronzer btw)


These lipsticks are the Revlon super lustrous lipsticks in cherries in the snow (left) and wild orchid (right) and I have to say, the red one is slowly making its way up to my favourite lipsticks, it applies so smoothly without caking and would be great if your a little scared of reds to start off with they retail at £7.99, I would definitely try to pick one up if I was you.



I actually cant say much for this product as I haven't used it yet, but I am a big fan of the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks they are £5.49 and this one is in 111 kiss of life. 


To be honest I don't know why I picked this up because I have dry skin, I think it was just to get the three for two, so it was free anyway, I just panicked at the till and grabbed the first thing I saw but its normally £3.99 if you are curious. 


This wee bad boy has changed my life I normally just used a mac shadow and a brush to fill in my eyebrows but this is aaamazing, I will be doing a full review shortly so keep an eye out for that.


This last product is a sleek blush in life's a peach, I haven't used it yet, but I love sleek blushes my personal favourite at the moment is rose gold its incredible and they are so pigmented for such a good price at £4.49, they are a makeup must have in my opinion

Lush Christmas 2014 : Golden Wonder Review And Demo

Hello there

Today post is yet another lush post because I have issues and spend far too much time and money in there so I'm sorry if your sick of hearing the word lush  
But here we go again. 



So last night I used the golden wonder bath bomb which was spectacular in the bath differnt colours of blue, green, yellow and a little bit of purple exploded in the bath leaving a turquoise colour in the bath and some golden lustre if you don't know what that is is like a shimmer in the bath which is beautiful and doesn't make you covered in glitter after you get out like the normal glitters do.

The only thing I wasn't fussed on with this bath bomb was the scent but that's personal opinion but if your a fan of citrus scents you will love this one.

The Lip Product Addict Tag



Hello there, Long time no see, actually its only been a few days but still. My post today was a popular video in the youtube world but its sort of died down now and I thought I would just write a post anyway, although I wasn't tagged I am actually going to tag a few blogs that I've been liking at the bottom of this post so make sure to check if your down there.


The Lip Product Addict Questions:

1. What is your favourite balm or treatment?
2. What is your favourite eye catching red?
3. The best luxury and drugstore product?
4. Best MAC lipstick?
5. Most disappointing lip product?
6. Lip Liner: Yes or No?
7. Favourite gloss?
8. Something else?





What is your favourite balm or treatment?

I actually don't have a photo of this one but I don't actually have a holy grail lip balm but If I had to pick one it would be either Carmex or Burts Bees 





                                            What is your favourite eye catching red?

This has to be Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 107 because its just amazing beautiful burgundy red colour with a creamy matte consistency. 


Best MAC lipstick?

This was quite hard because I love mac lipsticks but at the moment Hue but that will probs change in 10 minutes.



                                                 Most disappointing lip product?

I just don't like these, they are the YSL glossy stains I find them quite drying on the lips after a few hours and has a sort of tacky texture to it.


                                                        Lip Liner: Yes or No?

No......



                                                              Favourite gloss?

Tanya Burr lip gloss in Smile, Dream, Sparkle. It is non sticky which a must in lip gloss for me.




Something else?

I just think these bad boys deserve a mention because they are amazing

Tiny Little Lush Haul!

Yellow My Dears

   Sorry this post is up late today, I was in town with one of my friends and I picked up a Few things so I Thought why don't I show you the stuff in a Haul.

    So as you may or may not know I am absolutely obsessed with lush (tell me in the comments if as your excited as I am for lush Christmas stock).
     I bought the melting marshmallow moment bath melt and it smells so good kind of like snow fairy but not just as overpowering as snow fairy can sometimes be 


  Sorry I had to use a stock photo for this one as I was having camera issues I'm sure it will be sorted out soon. So this is the strawberry feels forever massage bar and it's was £5.95 and it's amazing!!! According to lush website it is a creamy strawberry massage bar with a fruit sundae fragrance and I would defintely agree with that.

*Quick note I was considering writing reviews on the lush christmas 2014 products if you would like to see that let me know in the comments because I will most likely buy a lot of them.

Sorry it was short one speak to y'all soon! X

YSL Splurge.....

      Last week I was very naughty and when I was passing the Ysl counter where I had been lusting over ysl lipsticks for quite sometime, especially the rouge volupte ones because they are b.e.a.u.tiful so I finally bit the bullet and paid the hefty price tag of £23.50 and bought of those bad boys in number 13 in peach passion.


         This shade.. Ahh and the constiency are soo creamy like applying butter to your lips the only thing you need to be careful of, is not to over apply it if you know what I mean because it could possibly cake on your lips, but other than that I think this will be a firm favourite of mine.
