Makeup Haul

So I may have gone into Superdrug and I may have found the reduced make-up items and I may have bought a few... so with that in mind here is a mini make-up haul for you.


Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss - 170 Coral Reef - Superdrug
A super pretty coral/pink colour and it has a non sticky formula so it is really nice.

Gosh Velvet touch waterproof eye liner - 016 Classic Grey - Superdrug
This eye liner is so super creamy and it goes on so well that I would definatly go
 back and get more, especially as it is so pigmented.

MUA nail polish - Plum Noir - Superdrug
This is a really pigmented nail polish and it glides on so nicely.

Gosh Intense eye liner pen - 02 Grey - Superdrug
This eye liner goes on really well and the felt tip top makes its easy to apply
(plus grey is a more subtle colour)

Calvin Klein eye shadow creme - Sheer Nectar - Poundland
I love this because its a really nice shimmery brown colour and you can wear it blended in so
its softer or if you want it darker you just done blend as much.

So i hope you liked these products and if you want a full review with pictures of me wearing them just ask. See you soon.

QOTD: Do you have any of these products? What do you think of them?

June Favourites

Wow this month has been VERY busy (as you will know if you have been keeping up with the 30 day snap) and that means I've not had too much time for different products but here they are so I hope you enjoy...

  1.  Color club nail polish in Reign in Spain.
I love this colour and it manages to be a pastel coral and a neon coral at the same time (What!!!????)
I love it and will be one of my summer faves,
which is weird because I don't normally go for oranges or pinks let alone coral.

2. Collection 2000 nail care 2in1 strengthener and hardener with calcium
Wow that is a long name. I have had this product for a while and this is my second bottle. 
Recently my nails have been really sad and soft (because I don't really have too much calcium in my life).
I love this and because its clear I can wear it for school *whoo whoo*
It takes a week or so to work but it makes your nails stronger and that's always a bonus.

3. Daisy head band from Primark
This was £1.50 or £2 I forget but its so pretty and subtle for the summer.
If you don't want to wear a full head band of flowers this is a great hand band that is comfy and for such a great price why now get this for the summer. 

4. Yes to carrot leave in conditioner
I have really enjoyed this over the past few months and I do believe it has actually helped my hair be less dry and it looks more happy. And who doesn't want happy hair for the summer. It was also pretty cheap as I bought it when it was on sale from ASOS.

I'm sorry there is only four products this month but I thought I would only add in the one's I have really been enjoying. not just put them in for no reason. hope you enjoyed...speak soon.

QOTD: What have you been enjoying this month? Any product suggestions? Any blogs I should read?

Birchbox: June 2013

Yes that's right (If you haven't guessed already) I have received my first ever Birchbox.
I got this as a birthday present from my mum and I got a few moths subscription (don't know how long for exactly). And this pleased me Immensely.

I have to say a huge well done to Birchbox for this month its made me sooooo excited for future months.

This month I got 6 products =] And it included 2...yes 2 nail polishes !!!!!

Colour club nail polish -
I as did apparently most of Birchbox subscribers received 2 colour club polishes. I received 'Reign in Spain' and 'Pardon my French'. 'Reign in Spain' is an amazing neon coral colour and 'Pardon my French' is a beautiful bright pastel purple. I am certainly looking forward to wearing these throughout summer. This is a 7ml sample but a full size one is 15ml but I think it's a seriously lovely sample.
My picture didn't show the colours well so I found a picture on Google.

Laura Geller Beauty Inkwell Waterproof Gel Liner-
This is a very lovely product not only have I been meaning to pick up a gel eye liner for ages but its such a lovely/expensive brand.This lasts all day and will need a good make up remover to take it off so possibly for me it's not an every day...liner but oh well. I love it and it's probably weird to say but I love the brush too. you pull the brush out and twist it round and clip it back in again to get a lovely, soft and useful brush.

Noble Isle 'Fireside' bath and shower gel - 
This product is nice and I do appreciate it and it does the job. however I'm not too keen on the smell...I don't hate it and I certainly don't love it but. It is a nice high end product and it keeps my mum happy. This is a 30ml bottle which is a decent sample and my mum has enjoyed using it.

Beauty protector - protect and detangle leave in conditioner - 
Honestly I haven't tried this product yet. but it certainly smells very nice and its a great size both for travelling and a really big sample size. It definitely claims to do a lot, and if it's any good I'll be sure to let you know in a favourites video.

Coola classic sunscreen - spf 30
This is a sun cream specifically for your face. It's meant to cool and sooth you face as well as protecting it from the sun and this all sounds very good to me. however me being rather pale. in other countries I have to wear SPF 50 on my face, But I might get away with 30 in London so I will give it ago the next sunny day we have. *Laughs to self*

So this is it for this month its been a fabulous time/box and I am so looking forward to writing about next months box. fingers crossed that it's a good one.

QOTD: Are you subscribed to Birchbox? What did you receive this month? Have you got any of these products if so any comments on them?

Soap & Glory Smoulder Kohl Waterproof eye liner: Review

I am quite impressed with this I have to say. At the time that I picked it up, I had to choose something for less than £8 and it would be free in a 3 for 2 offer. Read about that here.
From the Soap and Glory cosmetic range only a few things were less than £8 so I thought I'd give the eye liner a go because I love to try different eye liners.
It comes with a sharpener attached to the lid which I like because the sharpener is not in the lid so there will be no accidents when it comes to twisting the pencil by accident.
(The sharpener does not touch the pencil unless you want it too)

I got the brown colour (cocoa bean) I chose this because brown is a softer, more subtle look.
So far I like it. It has a very creamy formula and goes on very smoothly.


I think the colour pay off is really nice and it lasts a while as it is supposed to be waterproof, however I don't know if it lasts as long as I would like. It lasts a good few hours maybe 4-6 but for me I'm still waiting to find one that lasts all day and I'm yet to find it.


This cost £5 which is pretty good value but at the back of my mind there is a little voice telling me that there's probably a cheaper one out there that does just the same thing. But I'm happy and I will defiantly continue to use this product.

QOTD: Have you tried this product? Will you give it a go now? Is there anything else you want to know?
Have you got any eye liners for me to try that are really good?

Haul: New look, Nail varnish, Makeup and more

So yeah I really need to stop shopping. But here ya go...

First off I went to New look but I didn't really find much in there. However in the half price sale I did find this necklace.
I really like statement necklaces but I'm trying to find some that are more subtle. So I found this necklace and I really like it. And for £2.75 I thought it was a steal.

I went into Superdrug. And not wanting to spend much (As I ordered things online a few days ago). I was looking for 3 things which is good as there is a 3 for 2 offer on all cosmetics.
I picked up 2 eye liners. Only £1 each.
MUA-intense colour eyeliner. In Snow White and Jet Black

Also in Superdrug at the 'MUA' stand I chose a lipstick. I chose shade 7 (name: ) these are AMAZING they have great pigment and are only £1

In this random little shop I picked up 4 nail polishes from the brand 'L.A. COLORS'. I haven't herd of them before but I went into the shop and they were 99p each. I have been looking for a neon yellow for ages. And I couldn't help myself with the others.


I went into TX Maxx and found and 'IONIK' hair brush. I have seen them before and for only £4.99 I thought it wasn't too bad. I then found one in there sale (they are always having sales) and it was brand new but the box was a little damaged so it was only £4, I didn't really care about the pattern so I chose the sale one (why not).

I hope you have enjoyed this haul. Sorry it wasn't too big but another one coming soon when my super drug order comes. Feel free to comment down below and follow my blog and I'll have a look at yours.

May Favourites:

I know very well that both loads of other people and myself say every month "wow this month has gone past by so quickly" But again I really mean it.

I feel as though this month I've both tried a lot of things. And bought a lot and I guess it's time to tell you my favourites. So here we go =]

I went into Primark and at the till I found this. I love the colour and I think it's a good colour for a neon blue as I haven't seen many neon blues around.
Angelica nail colour -Ibiza summer-  £2.50

from the brand MUA (exclusive to superdrug) I picked up this glitter liquid eye liner. I have been loving it as it dries quite quickly so you don't get glitter all over your eye but it doesn't flake of to look yucky. This gives a nice amount of glitter. It has a nice wand that is flexible and bends to your eye? and I've really been liking it.

Don't judge me I did buy this in Poundland but who cares. It's in date and I haven't seen it in any shop. I love this mascara and feel sad that I don't know where to buy it again. Most mascaras that say 'volume' clump all your lashes together and just look awful but this seems to make my lashes look longer and just more full and i think it makes my face look happier. I dunno it just does.


I have loved this glitter top coat it gives a nice amount of glitter that lets the underneath colour show through.
Miss Sporty Sparkle touch -Glitter ball (I think) -  £2.99


And in TV I have really been loving the apprentice... I have to confess that the apprentice is defiantly one of my favourite shows on TV even though I know a lot of people don't like it. Not only has the new series started but I've been loving watching old episodes too (ones that at the time they were on I was too young).
I love seeing how its changed and how people have changed.

QOTD: What products have you been loving? Have you tried any of these? What do you think about them?
