February Buys!

In Trend This Season

Hello everyone! After #NoBuyJanuary I went a little crazy this February and picked up some expensive and affordable items.

The Benefit Sun Beam highlighter was one of the products I have been swooning over since I saw my friend using this and just could not resist the purchase.

This golden bronze highlighter gives you a natural, sun kissed radiance. Dot & blend over makeup on to cheek & brow bones for a bronzed glow that complements all skin tones. It’s liquid sunshine in a bottle! Only costing £19.50.

The tartan scarf from Primark, I don’t usually do tartan but I could not resist the pink and grey subtle look, a very affordable price from Primark  pricing at just £4. I just love it! I just could not resist a cute scarf to wear as an accessory.

Cut out boots from Select pricing at £20. I can’t believe I found these boots from just window shopping. Perfect for those effortlessly cool day looks - These feature cut out sides, chunky gold tone buckles and hard wearing low heel. These are the hottest in trend boots of the season , I would be lusting over these if I were you!

The Chanel Sheer Illuminating Fluid, Sunkissed

Soleil Tan De Chanel
Light Shimmering Liquid Bronzer

I Love this beautiful highlighting fluid. It only comes in one shade, Sun kissed, which is glimmery golden bronze that leaves the most beautiful glow behind. I'm NC35-42 and wouldn't be without this highlighter. It highlights the face with the finest glow I've ever seen.  There is no glitter and almost no shimmer - just a glow!

The only thing I dislike about this Chanel Liquid Highlighter is the heavy frosted glass bottle this comes in, as I find the opening of the bottle can get a little messy. However for such a beautiful product, I can put up with it! And the glass bottle does the job of keeping the product fresh, which is the most important thing. Sheer, weightless liquid instantly brightens skin and evens out skin tone.

Light-reflecting pigments provide radiance and luminosity. Botanical extracts soften, smooth and moisturize. Oil free. Fragrance free. I recommend this product to anyone looking for that summery feeling and skin in the middle of this wintery time! ENJOY!

Mac Stroke of Midnight Mineralize Brush Kit

The Brush Kit

You NEED the MAC Stroke of Midnight Mineralize Brush Kit! This set contains four mini MAC fibre brushes for face and eyes plus a makeup bag for travelling with them. MAC Stroke of Midnight Mineralize Brush Kit is one of several new brush sets that released with the MAC Holiday 2013 Collection. This year MAC went with black, white, and gold accents for their brush sets.  I really am a fan of the block colour bag as it can hold the brushes in there safely along with any other beauty products , or could be used in the evening as a purse. I have not used them as of yet , but will do a further post to let you guys know how they are in terms of quality.

Duo Fibre Face Brush
Duo Fibre Face Blush
Duo Fibre Blending Brush
Duo Fibre Eyeshadow Brush

Urban Decays Naked Palette 3

The Palette

It's the one you've been waiting for—The newest Naked palette, featuring 12 TOTALLY NEW and exclusive (and beyond amazing) rose-hued neutral . Urban Decay's Naked3 also includes a double-ended shadow/blending brush AND an Eyeshadow Primer Potion sampler with resealable samples of all four formulas (original, Sin, Eden and new Anti-Aging). Each sample holds about a week's worth of Primer! It is so much of a warmer palette compared to Naked 1 and Naked 2.

This features champagne and peach colours that would suit olive and caramel skin tones like myself. You can do so much with this palette, blending from the darks to the neutrals and transforming from day into night. Some of the shades are full of glitter and some are matted with a touch of shimmer, nothing gets me more excited then to get experimenting!

It is the best palette from the three and I just can’t believe I have got my hands on this beautiful eye shadow that everyone is after.  I am not sure about the price as I received this as a Christmas present but hey, it will last you all year so go and get yourself this very glamorous product.

The British Fashion Awards

The Goody Bag

Yesterday I was invited to most prestigious event of the year, which was The British Fashion Awards at the London Coliseum, which was hosted by Jack Whitehall. The ceremony saw the best of British and international fashion industries joined by a glamorous line up of guests and presenters, including Kate Moss, Donatella Versace, Sienna Miller, Miuccia Prada & Harry styles! It was just an amazing and exciting place to be and I was just in my element, surrounded by gorgeous dresses of the evening and champagne flowing all evening. 

I was so pleased about what they had to offer me in the goody bag, there were various beauty products and little treats I cannot wait to use. The Mac lady danger lipstick followed by the Mac mascara was a surprise to me; I am hugely looking forward to using these products. I also got given the Label.M hair products, shine mist and powder spray, which could come handy for a weekend away or an evening out for dinner. Overall I am pleased about the whole occasion and shall definitely be going next year.

The Pink Primark Oversized Boyfriend Coat

The Coat

Hello fashion lovers! I can’t believe I found this precious dime in the Luton store. Yes, the coat that is sold out everywhere and being worn by celebrities all over the country. 

I got my hands on this very special, just in time for Christmas ,Primark oversized baby pink coat.

I got it today and I just cannot believe my luck. It’s so beautiful I just keep trying it on and then putting it back in my wardrobe. I am very much looking forward to wearing this on special occasions.

The coat is very similar to the Zara Woollen blazer, which is also sold out in every store and can only be purchased on Ebay.  This is an incredible purchase, and at such good value that anyone who is lucky enough to get their hands on it should be as excited as I am now!
