Apologies..

I can't believe I haven't posted for over a week! Terrible! Sorry!

I don't think I've posted because I literally haven't bought anything exciting or make-up related. I did buy some clothes in the sale so I'll be sure to pop photos of those up when I can.

I've been really busy too. The last week I've had a few interviews so I've been preparing, researching, finding clothes to wear etc etc!

But for now I'll show you a glimpse of my latest nail look!


Cute and Summery I think!

To get this look I used:


BarryM products! My collection of BarryM is growing more and more, I forget what colours I've got! First up I used the;
Basecoat, Topcoat & Nail Hardener
Along with, Berry
and then... Silver Cascade (which is a newbie to my collection) on my ring fingers!

I got the Silver Cascade polish in Topshop at Oxford Street. I've never seen it in any of my local BarryM boutiques so I'm figuring up the city is where you'll find it easiest to get! It's a really great selection of glitter and doesn't budge for anyone! (I can warn you it is a bit of a pain when you want to get it off!)

I forgot I had the colour Berry so it was nice to use this again! Fits in well for this weather which doesn't want to make up it's mind!

Have any of you tried this?


New - John Frieda: Precision Foam Colour

I got my hair cut the other day but normally colour it myself, as I find it cheaper! My hairdresser and I get along quite well and she insisted I NEEDED to dye my roots. Haha! Normally I use Schwarzkopf XXL Colour (whatever it's called...) But Sarah (hairdresser) recommended this one by John Frieda. 
I must admit I'm a little scared to use it as it's not your normal dye, but a foam instead! Eek! 
I decided to get this colour; Deep Cherry Brown as I fancy a tinge of red in there!


So if any of you have used it please tell me what it's like and how to properly use it! I'm sure I'll manage but any help or tips would be great! I would love to do my hair Ombre/Dip dye style, but I just don't think it's long enough! I'm in one of those stages at the moment where I don't know what to do with my barnet! Therefore I'm just going to leave it and let it grow.

I think I may do this colour today, so I'll be sure to take a before and after photo!

Vera Wang; Lovestruck


I was watching Fleur (FleurDeForce) on YouTube and she spoke about this new perfume by Vera Wang called Lovestruck. Normally I don't really look for new perfumes as I love the ones I've already got! But after a good ole trip to Boots, I saw the huge stand for Lovestruck and then saw some cheeky samples! I didn't think I would like this, but the more I smell my small sample, the more I fall in love with it! 
Not to mention the packaging! Oh my, it's probably the prettiest perfume bottle I've ever seen!


Here is the description:

Vera Wang Lovestruck Perfume is the brand new fragrance from Vera Wang. It is all about being overwhelmed, inexplicably, hopelessly in love. Vera Wang Lovestruck Perfume opens with notes of exotic and juicy pink guava and soothing angelica blossom. The middle notes bloom with tones of intoxicating and sensual tuberose with aquatic lotus flower, whilst recious woody notes and sheer musk form rich and longlasting base 


 Whether or not I purchase this, I don't know. I think I may have to give my boyfriend a little hint!


Other News...
I am currently in the process of doing a make-up swap with a lovely lady called Sophie from America! Check out her blog linked! So that could be why I've been busy too! I'm about to send her pressies today. I can't wait to get mine so I can do a blog post on them!


I promise to be back soon with more posts! Hope you're all well!

What a way to make a living!

So now I'm a 9-5 girlie, I'm super tired waking up at half 6 every morning! I've gotta start getting used to it! So bare with me if I don't post as often!

My brother just came back from Mexico the other day all tanned and what not. (Completely jealous)
I came in from work and found this on the side!...


Jimmy Choo perfume! I've wanted this since it came out, my brother was the one who told me about it. But obviously being young and spending silly amounts of money I couldn't afford it!
Was super happy when I saw he got it for me! What a lovely sibling!
And best of all, its 100ml! So it's gonna last me a life time!

If you haven't smelt this, you have to.
It's hard to describe it typing, but I honestly love it. I'll try and describe it. 
It's sweet, one of those smells that when you walk past someone who's wearing it you can instantly get a woft! I love that. Definately long lasting and strong. My boyfriend loves it!

I think it's similar to Thierry Mugler: Alien and Victor & Rolf: Flowerbomb.
These are 2 other perfumes I have and am completely in love with!

Theirry Mugler: Alien
Another overpowering scent, I've worn this for ages!
Always, always get compliments when I wear this.

Victor & Rolf: Flowerbomb
Again, another strong scent, always get compliments with this too!


Try and smell these if you haven't, they are gorg!
