Mini Beauty Haul

Hey Bloggerinos!

I haven't been on a beauty shop/ haul in a while and sometimes I have no idea what I like but yesterday I was calm and focused as I slowly strode around Oxford Street. As I haven't gone crazy in a while I it would be smart to budget myself. I slightly went overboard but I'm still quite proud (high fives all round). So lets get down to some gandering!

The first area in the beauty department I gravitate to has been the Collection display as I've notice that the Goth Glam lipsticks have been discontinued. I was hoping that I would be able to get my hands on another tube of the delightful Revenge because even though it's summer I'm deeply in love with it.

 No such Luck there but Scorned was available so I decided to give it a go. I think Scorned and I will get on amazingly and I can always mix it with other lipsticks to get the desired effect I'm going for. Blog review coming soon!

I've forever been looking for a fluffy blending brush and it just wasn't happening so when I saw this brush was only £1.99 I snapped it up! If it doesn't work out it only cost Two quid. It can also be used for blending concealer. Keep your eye out for a review!


A White pencil applied in the right place can work wonders on my eyes. It can make you eyes look more awake, make your eyes appear bigger or you could just have fun with it for Halloween look. I've never had a white khol pencil (2 true) before so I'm going to play around with it and see how it goes. Youtube videos, here I come!

I love, love, love a matte lip, who doesn't? I don't have very many in my collection but I use blotting paper to gently dull the shine on my glossies. Cream Puff by Collection is nothing new but it's still popular. To be honest I wasn't sure if any of the colours were for me so I played it safe here but I think can mix it up and make it work.

As well as loving my Burgundy lipstick I have possessed the spirit of Nicki Minaj's lips circa 2011. I picked up Perrie's lipstick from the Little Mix collection and fell for lilac colour immediately so this £1 lipstick from MUA (which was the only shade left) is perfect for me as I'm starting to feel more confident with and with out make up.

If you haven't caught on that I'm going slightly loopy on the lip products and having fun, mixing it up so I got this fair Pink/ Rose gold type shade as I could match it up with any lipstick I choose. It also has a nifty sharpener in the lid so it's great for on the go.

The Eyeko liquid eyeliner pen was free with Glamour magazine last month in conjunction with Alexa Chung's cover. I've yet to try it but if it's a goodun I'll be a loyal supporter.

I hope you enjoyed this as much I love writing it. It's been a right feel good day today and I just desperately wanted to share with you all.

Take care and blog ya soon,

Nails of the Week - Friday 7 February 2014


Hey Folks, a quick little ramble about a new nail colour I picked up this week by Sinful Colors in the shade Dancing Nails.

I used All in One by Barry M as a base coat and top coat and the two coats glided onto the nail with ease, drying super quick so no need to use dry nail spray.


I adore this beautiful  Rose Gold colour teeny tiny flecks of glitter so small I think my eyes are playing tricks on me. Nonetheless it catches the light gently, adding a gentle pop of colour to an outfit.

Dancing Nails has been the colour of the week and with that comes all manner of tasks to be taken care of.
These two managed to hold it together fantastically throughout the week. I'm not say that I didn't have a few chips here and there but who doesn't, eh? Reapplication was always smooth and dried in no time which is the best for those last minute fixes. For the most part the formulas held to my nails as if I wasn't wearing anything at all.

Tell me what your favourite nail colours are in the comment box, I'd love to check them out. x


With Love

Dawn
