What's on your bedside table....

I was tagged by the beautiful Bex so here goes :) this is mine :) I absolutely love it!!!
Now my Son is nearly 3 I don't need dummies or wipes to hand so I can now have this.
It's from IKEA and is in the children's section. A bargain at £49 too :)
I have it for my huge nail varnish collection, make up, hair styling products and books and magazines.
All for me :)
Hope you like it xxxx

Daily Make-Up :)

Just thought I'd share a photo of my daily make up. I always wear this then sometimes add eyeliner or eyeshadow depending on where I'm going. To work I usually just keep it simple!
The kids don't care what I look like!

Something New

So today I bought some new things. I got my sister some Soap and Glory products for her birthday and it's 3 for 2 in boots at the moment so i took advantage and kept something for me :) I chose a gorgeous moisturising body mist and it smells just like the body wash!

I also saw a new Barry M nail varnish called Chameleon. You apply a basecoat, then the nail varnish then add a topcoat over it and apparently it'll change colour. What colour, I don't know but I'll be sure to post a pic once I've done it :)

I also bought a coral lipstick from MUA for a £1!!! And I got some amazing looking toothpaste. Sad I know but it's sort of sparkly :) anything for a minty fresh mouth!

That's all for now! I just need to buy my sister a foundation brush so if anyone can recommend one that'd be fab and I've also ordered her some cake pops from my lovely friend Sallie. She has a page called Starbox Cakes on Facebook and she makes some yummy cakes!!

Blog soon :) Ta Ra!! Xx

What a jolly long time......

I've been away for!! I'm so sorry I haven't blogged in a while but my laptop has decided to die on me and so did my phone, but I've since got a gorgeous iPhone 4 :) I can now blog again!!



I have been OBSESSED and I mean like crazily obsessed with beauty tutorials and "what's in my bag" videos on YouTube. I seriously love them and get swallowed up in all the lovely products that time flies and I've wasted half the morning! I really need to sort out my time management ;)

So, I recently saw a few youtubers using ELF products so I had a little nossey at their website and it's definitely worth a look! I've bought double of everything as its my sisters birthday soon so I brought her the same too :) I got a powder brush to blend on my foundation, I got a blending eye brush, a tone correcting concealer which smells AMAZING! And a clear eyebrow gel. So inexpensive but the products do the job written on the tin ;)



I have managed to read all my cosmopolitan mag so I picked up Glamour magazine today. It also made me happy that you got a free Benefit product with it!
I picked the That Gal Brightening Face primer and I can't wait to try it. It looks gorgeous and I love Benefit packaging. If you've got any recommendations of other Benefit products then I'd love to hear them. The blushes and bronzers look amazing!



Well I'm going off to experiment with a few nail varnishes but I'll blog again soon with some pressies I'm buying my sister. I may have get myself a cheeky little something ;)

Have a nice day kids! X

Life is Sweet...




So today I found these Starburst sweets in my local co op  :) I love that they have the British flag on the front and the limited flavours are Apple, Strawberry, Blackcurrant and Raspberry. They are yummy but slightly sour tasting!



Limited Edition Starburst!


Inside the wrappers have the Union Jack on too!


Inside the packet :)

Oh and the Aero Strawberry was gorgeous! I'll be making a trip back to my post office to get another!


I also wanted to show you my new Blusher! I'm a sucker for pretty packaging and this is gorgeous! I didn't know Accessorize and Monsoon did Make-up but it really is beautiful.

Blusher
Inside it's two toned with pink and lilac

It's called a Merged Baked Blusher and it's Number 7 called Wowzer! It's much pinker than I usually buy but I wanted something bright to wear when I have a tan and think it brightens up my face! I also love that it merges two colours together. 

It's my sister's birthday soon so I will be buying some lip tints for her and maybe get a cheeky one for me ;) A girl can't have too much make up!

Guilty Pleasures


All week I've been checking to see if Cosmo has come out and I finally found it! I really love this magazine as it actually lasts me pretty much the whole month.
The first day I get it I have a good flick through and then I read it properly over the next few weeks.
This months issue came with some Mentos Fruity Fresh 7 gum and some sunglasses! Love it!!
Fave Mag and Treats

I also treated myself to a Daim bar and I saw this Aero bar that's made in Budapest and it has strawberry in it! I LOVE strawberries so thought I'd give it a try. I'll let you know if it's actually nice!!


Good old seaside Rock :)



My Mum's best friend bought me this Rock on Wednesday from Stratford as Rock is my favourite kind of sweet. If anyone goes to the seaside I get a little bit excited and always ask if they'd kindly get me some :) I'm going to Bournemouth for a few days in July so will definitely be stocking up!

Candy Rainbow





So I'm not the biggest fan of painting each nail a different colour, I just don't think it suits me. Buuuuuuuuuuuuut, I actually really like these colours together and think it's perfect for the summer! Even though the sun has gone into hibernation! :(



Candy rainbow

I used 5 nail varnishes to create this look and they are:
TOPSHOP 105 Celestial
Beauty UK glam nails 48 Peach Melba
Barry M 308 Berry
Barry M 317 Blue Moon
and
Barry M 307 Lemon
I also used Barry M 54 Basecoat and Topcoat.




Nail varnish I used

I also recently bought the Barry M 335 Copper which is just gorgeous with Beauty UK 53 Golden Chestnut and I used that on my toes :)
