No7 Glamour Lipstick

What a busy week! How is everyone doing?

I'm sure most of you know that Boots are currently doing a voucher for No7 products, £5 off! So I managed to run in on Saturday & pick up this gorgeous lipstick.




It comes in the cutest packaging, I love the polka dots on the box, so pretty.


When you get your lipstick, you'll also receive this cute little note - just adds a bit of quirkiness to the product.



I have quite lot of dark lipsticks (except my Touch Of Magic lipstick) so I decided to get this colour, it's called Glamour & comes out in a pink shade. (Depending on how heavily you apply it, it's either a light or dark shade)


This is the first swatch - sorry it's not very good. The lighting was terrible!


I've tended to wear this lipstick during the day, it's a really nice sutle, natural colour. I tend to go for a darker, more vibrant shade if I'm going on a night out, but for every day use I'd definitely recommend it. I managed to get it for £7 with the voucher (£12 without), so definitely worth popping into Boots to get your hands on it.

I'm still having trouble commenting on some of your blogs, I'm sorry I haven't been able to keep up to date with you all. I'm having a mad reading session tomorrow because I'm off to work now. Hope everyone had a good bank holiday weekend. What did you all get up to? : )

Raspberry & Blackberry

  It feels like forever since I last posted, even though it was less than a week ago! How is everyone? : D

 

  This is my gorgeous Hello Kitty Pete & Leia bought me back from Spain. They won it in one of those grabby machines you get on the beach. : ) So cute.

  Anyway, I went shopping on Monday & got these two gorgeous products, one's a shower gel & the other one a body butter from the I Love... range.

Shower gel
£2.03 - Superdrug

I literally love this product - it smells so gorgeous I actually want to eat it! I actually first smelt these flavours when my friend ordered a raspberry & blackberry drink from Costa! Ever since I found a product that smelled like it, I've been addicted. : )

& this is the body butter, again, same flavour:

Body butter

£2.03 - Superdrug
You might have seen in my last post I did a review on Cocoa Butter Body Butter. This product is alot more.. moussey? Is that a word? Lol! It's more light & creamy if that makes sense. (I'm rubbish at describing products!)


This has a slightly stronger flavour than the shower gel but it just makes it even more yummy.

If you want to check out the other flavours have a look at their website. They say the products are mouth-watering.. so true! I'm tempted to get the bubble bath & lip balms!

Right my blog feed is literally backing up since Friday, so I'm off to read your gorgeous posts. Oh & people commented asking me how I found Pirates Of The Caribbean the other day. My opinion: it was exactly like the other three. I don't mean that's a bad thing, it just didn't jump out as the best one or the worse.. was just good. I'm seeing Water For Elephants tonight.. has anyone seen it? I've heard it's good. : )

ENTER MY GIVEAWAY!

ARGH NO - just tried commenting on your blogs & can't so I will when blogger decides it's going to be nice again. : ) xx

Cocoa Butter Body Butter Review

  Hello girls. How are you all?

  Quick note to start & say Alan (my car) passed his M.O.T, so I can now drive him legally again.  : ) YAY.

  Right, you might remember me doing a post a while back where I showed you the Body Butter I got from Tesco. Sorry the review is slightly late, but I totally forgot I was going to do one! : D

  Here is the product:




  Now, I've only been using this on my face & some rough areas on my body where the skin is quite dry, I use a moisturiser on the rest of my body as it's a lot easier to apply than body butter, being lighter & easier to spread. Try not to use too much, (mainly because you only need a small amount) just enough to cover the area you've chosen to apply it to.

  I usually apply it after I've come out the shower or/and at night after I've taken off my makeup so it can soak in over night. (You can apply it in the morning, I just find it easier do to it at night)



  Result: After using it for a few days, my skin does feel alot softer & smoother. I've had a few compliments from the smell as well which is always good! : ) I love the smell of cocoa butter, if you've never smelt it before, TRY IT! Seriously, it's gorgeous.

  The product costs around £5. (I did get it half price in Tescos the other week, no idea how long the offer is on for though)

  Have you tried this product? Or tried one similar you'd recommend? : )

  I'm seeing Pirates Of The Caribbean tonight with my friends, it looks really good & I do enjoy the films, but I get so confused whats going on.. I know that sounds silly but when I think back to number 2 & 3 I can't even remember which bits are in which film.. hahaha. I think they're all going to be sick of me whispering "What's going on?!" every 5 minutes! LOL. : )

Oh & one to follow: Nichole. I've just found her blog & it's amazing. She's having a giveaway too, so check it out on her blog! & my favourite post of hers, her penguin nail tutorial is just awesome, definately going to try that at some point. : ) xx

I Do Love Birthdays...


  ..so I can steal the ribbon off the cake!

  Hahaha, how is everyone? I'm just catching up on 90210 from last night, sooo good at the moment, without spoiling it for those you who haven't see it yet, I feel so sorry for Silver, but I'm totally loving Naomi & Max's relationship, so cute. : )

  Alan Carr (my car, like his name? ;D) has his M.O.T later today, fingers crossed he'll pass. He's a very old car, but I do love him. I'll take a picture once I've given him a good scrub later.

  Oh yes, I'll also do my review on my Cocoa Butter moisturiser sometime this week, I've nearly used it all up! So nice.

  & a huge welcome to all my new followers! If you haven't entered my giveaway yet, why not!? Do it nowwww. : D
