Lily Lolo Smoky Rose Mineral Eyeshadow Quad

Before using these eyeshadows i had never used anything from this brand before so this really was a good first impression. They are mineral based products which are becoming ridiculously popular at the minute and generally every mineral eyeshadow i have used have brilliant pigment and these didn't disappoint.

The packaging is quite simple which i like and inside you have a white shimmer, a matte rose colour, a shimmer taupe and a matte dark grey/brown. The colours are very wearable, maybe the pink not as much but i love a flush of warmth through the socket which is how i have been using it.

As i thought the colour pay off is brilliant which makes me very happy :-)
This retails at £18.99 which i think it brilliant for a quad of shadows, you can check it out HERE

Soap and Glory Heel Genius

Soap and Glory is one of my go to brands if i want to to treat myself to some luscious bath and body products, or for a gift as i know everyone loves it. I have been using Heel Genius for a while as i tend to get really bad dry cracked feet in the summer, so one of my favourite things to do is apply loads all over my feet and then put my slipper socks on so it can do it's magic and soak in.

This works really well to get any stubborn hard skin to soften up to you can then give your feet a good exfoliate and your feet are as good as new. Not only does it do all of this it smells incredible, although that is standard of all soap and glory products!

This retails at £5.50 which is an absolute steal and you can get it from Boots.com

Marc Jacobs Daisy

When it comes to perfumes one thing that is important to me is whether not other people can actually smell it and of course that you get lot's of compliments of your lovely perfume :-). I think this is the one perfume that stays on me all day and i get a ridiculous amounts of "nice smell" comments.

I have been wearing it for a few years now and the scent just doesn't get old, it's light and of course floral but not in an old lady, heavy floral way. It's light, fresh and inviting, when ever my friends wear it it reminds me just how much i love it. I generally love to the EDP in any fragrance just for the staying power but the EDT lasts longer on the skin than any other EDT i have ever used.

This is the perfect christmas gift for someone as the bottle is so beautiful and i have not yet met anyone who doesn't love it. The 50ml ETP retails at £54, check it out HERE and get free delivery.

Loreal Super Liner






I am a big fan of pen like liquid liners, i think they are perfect for when you are in a hurry, easy to carry and i like the ones with a nice fine tip. This one by Loreal is actually the best one i have used, even better than some of the more expensive brands i have.

It's super super black which i love, there is nothing more annoying to me than a black eyeliner that comes out slightly grey. Its has a very fine tip which makes it perfect for drawing in a flick and the pen is nice and fine so it doesn't get in the way. One of the best things about this is i have had it for a while and it hasn't dried out at all, i would definitely make sure you put the top on this properly just in case but some are prone to drying out.

This retails at £6.99 and you can get it with free delivery from feelunique.com

Benefit Big Beautiful Eyes Contour Kit

I'm an absolute sucker for Benefit products, not only is are the products lovely but the packaging is so damn cute! This kit i have had for a while but have taken it out of my collection for a bit of use recently and i had forgotten how much i love it.


For makeup beginners this is the perfect set, you have your light, medium and dark eyeshadows (so 3 in total) so you can create a soft natural day look or a full on smokey eye. The light and medium eyeshadows have shimmer and the darkest brown is matte so works very well as a liner.

Not only do you get eyeshadow in this kit, you get a Boing concealer in shade 02 as well you can keep the under eye looking perfect. The mini brushes you get with this kit are not my favourite but i never like the applicators given with products i always like my own brushes but they go perfectly with the kit.

This kit retails at £24.50 which is an absolute bargain for for the items included and makes a fab gift. You can check it out HERE
