MAC Diva

If you follow me on Twitter you'll know that I had began searching for my second MAC lipstick shade, and I had absolutely no idea which one to go for.

Bryan Adams Get Up Tour 2016

Last night I went to see Bryan Adams at the Birmingham stop on his Get Up Tour in the UK this year, and it is safe to say that it was amazing! I just wanted to share some of my thoughts and some snaps of my night.

Sisterhood of the World Bloggers

The lovely Tania from TaniaMichele tagged me in the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers tag, and I am so excited by this, I feel like I haven't done a tag in forever (well I haven't that's why). You can read Tania's post here and see the answers she has given to her own set of questions which is very interesting, as I love finding out those little things about people that you wouldn't necessarily know! It's such a fun way to interact more! So, I'm going to answer the questions that Tania has given me (hopefully you'd like to know the answers), and then I'll tag some more of you beauties with my own set of questions that you'd like to answer and pass on etc. So, here goes!

My Favourite Christmas Films!

What I love most of all about Christmas is getting to watch lots of Christmas films all snuggled under a blanket nice and cosy because they always have a happy ending. So, I thought I would create a list of my favourite Christmas films to share with you all, and so maybe you can watch them if you haven't already!

My first MAC lipstick!

I know I am probably really late in purchasing a MAC lipstick, especially in the blogging community, since I have noticed everyone already owns at least one (or more if you're lucky). After purchasing the shade Ruby Woo I am fully converted and more than jealous of those of you who have many different shades of MAC to choose from on a daily basis. I don't even know why it has taken me so long to purchase a MAC lipstick, since I love lipsticks (and have too many to prove it). I suppose it would probably be the price, because I can buy at least 2 or 3 really good lipsticks for the price of this one MAC. However, it is just so good and I haven't stopped dreaming about buying some more. I do prefer to have darker reds and plum coloured lipstick, so I am keen to find some perfect darker MAC shades, if you have any suggestions I would be more than grateful.

Rimmel x Kate Moss Nudes Collection

The new Rimmel x Kate Moss nudes collection caught my eye on my most recent trip to Boots. And also, there is a 'buy one get one half price' offer on the entire Rimmel collection at the moment which was another bonus. There are a range of five different nude lipsticks available designed by Kate Moss, as she has said she wants to "help every girl find her perfect nude". Also, a really helpful thing was a chart next to the lipsticks that helped you pick your nude, which consisted of skin with; neutral undertones, cool undertones, warm undertones, and nudes to suit every skin tone. So, you'll have nearly no trouble in deciding which shade to choose, my only trouble was convincing myself to stick to my budget and only buy one lipstick!

I picked nude #45 which was under the neutral undertones because I thought this would suit me the most, but I still want to try the other shades too. The new lipstick collection comes in these very cute light pink/salmon lipstick containers, with the Kate Moss logo of course, and look very chic in your handbag. The lipstick itself is nice and creamy, and not drying of your lips at all. I am only a recent fan of trying nude lipsticks, I always tended to go for the bright pinks and red, but I cannot wait to try the other nudes now I am a convert! Have you tried this new collection yet?

As there was an offer on Rimmel in Boots, I thought I would pick out a nude nail varnish too, because once again I only own bright coloured nail varnishes, but I have found there is always something classy about a nude nail. So, I picked out Salon Pro #125 Oh, Mr Darcy! and I am very impressed. I have worn it for a full day so far and (fingers crossed) I have had no chips or fading. It says it lasts up to 10 days of wear, so I am keen to test this out because I think the colour looks wonderful and I want to keep it on my nails forever! Have you tried any of the Salon Pro nail varnishes or what do you think of this nude colour?

Soap and Glory review

My all time favourite Soap and Glory body products.

Whenever I get the chance I always recommend Soap and Glory's products to anyone and everyone. Personally, I have never had a single complaint to make about any of the products I have tried, and that's quite a hard thing to accomplish in the present day because not every product suits everyone, and especially me with my sensitive skin. But, I actually think S&G manage this!

I have uploaded a picture of my all time favourite body products that I use almost on a daily basis. The Mist You Madly body spray is perfectly handbag-sized and smells absolutely yummy. The body butter makes your skin silky smooth, I use it after my shower, and it also scented with the 'Mist You Madly' smell, which is another reason why it is one of my faves. I use the bath float for a luxurious smelling bubble bath, and I only need to use the smallest amount and swish it under running water for it to create lots of bubbles, a big plus. Lastly, the Pulp Friction body scrub is another famously nice smelling scrub from Soap and Glory, and I use it weekly for a good old scrub, or I swap it up with the Foam Call body wash, because they both leave me smelling like a pretty flower.

Also, I never walk past a '3 for 2' offer in my local Boots... I just physically can't even if it means restocking the products I already have because I know and love them. Of course, I want to try all the products and I have only recently started to purchase their make up products, and it's safe to say I am ultimately impressed by their quality.

The Supercat black eyeliner pen has a fine point and a thick edge to create two different looks, and lasts for a very long time. I used to use another brand that was a '24 hour' eyeliner and I think this is exactly on par. Being a pen shape it is easy enough to put in your handbag and I have had mine over 6 months already and it hasn't dried out a single bit. A bargain at only £6 (stocked in Boots or online at www.soapandglory.com). Also, I own the Hocus Focus Illuminator which I use very sparingly when I go out for that extra glam feel. It is the perfect cheek highlighter, for only £11, and last a long time because you only need the tiniest amount. Soap and Glory also recommend that you mix it with your moisturiser for a gorgeous skin glow, which I will also be trying.

I really want to try out Soap and Glory's skincare products, as I have noticed they are always growing their collection, and I have also seen some really good reviews on them. Their website is also really useful because it allows you to select products based on your skin type (so oily, dry, and combination) which I always find to be a lifesaver when you quickly want to pick products knowing they will be kind to your skin. So, that will be my next adventure regarding the Soap and Glory products which I hope I will be able to share with you soon.
