Well, it’s a thoroughly miserable October afternoon, I’ve got the heating on and I’m half watching CSI. Thinking about all the things I’ve loved this month makes me feel decidedly more cheery though, so I’m sharing my favourites with you 🙂
One Lovely Blog Award
Hey everyone, so the absolutely lovely Audrey from Newbie in Beauty nominated me for the One Lovely Blog Award, thank you 🙂 Go and check out her blog!
The rules for this award are to:
Urban Decay Naked Palette Tutorials
I’m excited to try out my new palette and as it comes with a handy guide on how to do different smoky eyes, I thought I’d try out a couple of looks from it!
Rimmel Kate 107 Lipstick Review
I finally caved in and bought the Kate Moss 107 lipstick by Rimmel. I’ve been lusting after it for ages, seeing it on other blogs, wanting it and forgetting to buy it or it being out of stock. When I went into Boots on Wednesday, they had two in stock! Luckily, I bought it before my makeup ban came into effect 😀
Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette
Argh, I’m so excited to share this with you. A few weeks ago, the lovely Jasmin Charlotte ran a competition on her blog to win an Urban Decay Naked Smoky palette, because she was celebrating reaching 250 posts on her blog (congratulations Jasmin!) I was so excited when a DM landed in my inbox telling me I’d won!! So I thought where better to share my new palette than here with you!
Chanel Le Volume Mascara Review*
It’s always lovely to get post, even more so when it’s make-up and especially when you don’t remember requesting a sample! So imagine my surprise when I got a package through the door containing the new mascara from Chanel!
September Favourites
I can’t believe September is nearly over 🙁 I do love autumn/winter, especially as it’s when J and I got together 🙂 but I’m not a fan of dark mornings and freezing my arse off at bus stops in the pouring rain (J takes our car to work) 🙁 Anyway, here’s what I’ve been loving this month <3
The Liebster Award
I was nominated by the lovely Sophie (Unfortunately I was also nominated ages ago by someone else, but I can’t find the link 🙁 I’m so sorry if it was you!)
My Autumn Eye Look
I’ve been wearing this look a lot this week, so I thought I’d share it with you all 🙂
Sorting Out My Hair
I find this to usually be quite an ordeal. I’m not good at describing what I want and the poor hairdresser is usually unable to guess correctly what I’m trying to ask for. This has led to wanting the iconic “Rachel” haircut in 1998 and getting what I can only describe as long, poofy curtains with the underneath being longer than the top. There is evidence. No, I’m not sharing it. 😀
