Summers Strappy Sandals

Strappy sandals this springs big thing
*I know I'm a bit late with the sandals* :( *sorry lovelies thought I'd still share my thoughts anyway :) * 

Hi dolls, I was only aware of these when I saw them on a YouTube video and I was hooked at the way they give you such a slimming look especially on the legs even being paired with jeans. Having looked into them more I found that they pair well with most items of clothing such as, jeggings, jeans, skirts, dresses and the list goes on. The strappy sandals have a way of also making any outfit and any feet look feminine and ever so dainty. There is a wide range of strappy sandals some of which may have a single strap, others with two or a block heel rather than a thin heel. The barely strappy sandals is another way to show off some of the great spring nail colours being worn this season. Also with some of the strappy sandals out there are giving it that uniqueness with the two tone colours that mix and match perfectly or just the ones that give it that pop of colour. 

Like I said there's a great range of strappy sandals but for me the basic black is a personal must have. Although I would like to play around with New Looks online exclusive limited colour block ankle strap sandals.

Mum Tulip: I was wrong

*I just wanted to put it out there that now I'm thinking at the fact that these lush wands were 'Mothers Day editions' and they were for me but only because my mother isn't a fan of bubble baths as much as me, so I did get my mother flowers one thing she does love haha just had to get that out there* :) 

Mum Tulip

So can someone give me a smack on the hand... 

AMAZING Lush Mum Tulip Bath Wand 

You know what it must have been the rush of excitement because to be honest even though I did not run the wand under the tap I did however, swirl in the bath tub like the lady had shown me in the store... but again it does say on the website to run it under the tap a few seconds. I was so amazed that I was actually trying to force my mum into having a bubble bath. It was also because of the fact that I did find a few reviews  on these wands that had also said similar things to what I first thought about the wands. So all in all, there amazing!! I'm sorry if I gave anyone the wrong impression but hey it was the truth and to be fair I didn't give up on them haha. 

Next bubble bath I will use the Madame Butterfly as I just wanted to truly enjoy and experience the Mum Tulip Wand. 

So many bubbles, so much colour, an overwhelming smell and still that great soft silky feel on my skin (lasted like 30-45 minutes)

Only downfall was the fact that I can't see myself getting more than 5 uses out of the wand because the wand shown in the picture has been used two times (but the second time I used it I think I got carried away with the excitement of the fact that the wand worked like magic so I kept and kept swirling it around and under the tap :O

Happiness is taking a long, hot bubble bath ...

Got a crush on Lush  

Right to left: Madame Butterfly and Mum Tulip

Whilst visiting my boyfriend at University I decided to go Lush shopping with him because I knew he'd enjoy that as its not as repetitive as clothe's shopping. Bare in mind it was my first time and to be honest with you it wasn't great because I'm one of those people that don't like being bombarded with staff hovering and asking and talking to you whilst you try to enjoy shopping. As much as they are only trying to be nice I know but I just like to shop in peace and if I need help I never hesitate to ask... So anyway the whole time we was in there they literally did not stop talking to us which ruined the first time experience a little but maybe it was because we was like the only customers in there at the time and it was near to closing. I knew I definitely wanted to pick up a wand after missing out on the Christmas Magic wand bubble bar so their new limited editions were the mothers day 'The Mum', 'Mum Tulip' and 'Madame Butterfly' wands. The lady even demonstrated them and I wasn't going to say no but I wasn't keen on the 'Mum' wand so I also wanted to pick up a bath bomb which I couldn't choose between the 'Creamy Candy' and 'Mmmelting Marshmallow Moment' bubbles bar's.

Flush that Lush

It was only till I got home and tried them out that I have never been so disappointed. Honestly I don't know whether it was just me (I think it was me) and the fact that I swished it around in the bath once the water had stopped running but it did absolutely nothing in terms of colour, smell or foam although there was ONE highlight of the whole experience...the rose oils. I could feel the oils on my skin soaking in which was lovely.  

It was odd to think that the overpowering smell you get just it being inside the packaging just didn't come through in the water. I was so gutted after waiting such a long time to buy Lush products and then to wait even longer to bring them home from my boyfriends place. 

After swirling in Mum Tulip as well it did show somewhat colour and a sense of fragrance but it still didn't look like the demonstration shown at the shop. I think the Mmmelting Marshmallow Moment was ruined because I just crumbled it in the bath to save myself having a disappointing bubble bath which just got worse as that didn't work either. (I should have known better as its been said and shown that you should run in directly under the tap whilst running your bath so I won't repurchase the same one but I will get the Creamy Candy Bar this time and hopefully do it right and my bath will be full of lushness! 

"Simply turn on your bath taps and swish it around in the water for a few seconds – or until you’ve got enough bubbles in your tub. Then pop it on the side to use another time - these look particularly nice in a vase on the side. It goes rock hard until you’re ready to use it again – how many baths will you get out of it? Here’s the important part – before you get in, make sure you have a watering can or jug to hand. Then once you’ve finished wallowing in the lovely waters, you can dip your jug into the bath, scoop up some of that nutrient filled water and water all your plants around the house and garden (just remember to put a dressing gown on first if you go outside!)"  Lush.co.uk

Sleek Contour: Brow Kit and Face Form reviews

Hey guys so I'm still on the hunt and desperately looking for an all time favourite eyebrow product. I've never found an eyebrow product that I have loved so much but after watching some videos on YouTube it gave me the push to go and purchase the Sleek Brow Kit (in Dark). So at the moment I'm just sticking to my Avon eyebrow glimmerstick definer. 

I also bought the Sleek Face Form in Medium. I've always used the Sleek Contour Kit, however whenever I seem to go and buy the product it's usually out of stock or the shops never have it in medium when I go. Therefore I was desperate and needed to buy the face form which didn't make much difference considering they just added a bronzer to it and the colours of the highlighter and contour was exactly the same as the Sleek Contour Kit although the only difference was the problem in the price....... 

Erm hello £9.99... really, well its damn right good my other half has his NUS discount card, buzzing haha. 

Onto the reviews...The brow kit for me isn't worth the hype its just personal use and opinion, I'd rather stick with the use of an eyebrow pencil, because I find the texture in the Sleek kit very hard to apply and set on my eyebrows even with the additional powder to set it with. For me it just looks clumpy and very tacky.  I have used it a few times when I've had more time to do my make up but then regretted it because it just does not look natural what so ever! Eek :( 

The face form on the other hand is (for me) brilliant because it does the job perfectly and I the Contour kit lasted me forever. But for a drug store product it doesn't seem to last all day even with my primer or M.A.C Fix+  but I've repurchased it and I still would. Its mainly the consistency of the highlighter that bugs me because I like to have a glow to my face even on a natural basis because I was using the M.A.C Cream Colour Base in Hush (Frost) but I only like to use this when I'm dolling my self up a bit more than my everyday look. So for an everyday product the face form works wonders but not an all day lasting product and still expensive for drug store.

Would love to trial and error some highlighters... IDEAS PLEASE? 

Hope your all well

Enjoy The Easter Holidays

Step by Step || My everyday Makeup routine

After showing you my everyday make up brushes I wanted to show you my everyday make up products that I use on a daily basis...

Products used:

Collection 2000 Lip Liner in 17 Clover pink || M.A.C Matte Lipstick in Mehr and Kinda Sexy 

Step by step: 

1. The M.A.C Fix + is used to hydrate my eyes using a sponge applicator dabbing it in the eye area.

2. I then Prep and Prime my skin using two pumps by rubbing it into my face using my fingers.

3. After letting both products set in, I then use two to three pumps (depending on coverage) of foundation dotting it around my face and then buffing it into my face using my RT buffing brush.

4. Taking my ring finger I use a small amount of a corrector and begin to blend it in using a dabbing motion focusing on the dark areas and the inner corners of my eyes until the right amount of product has been applied. I next take a concealer kit and do the same again on both sides. Lastly, to adjust the colour to match my foundation I use a small amount of concealer.  I also use my RT flat pointed foundation brush to set all the products in place after applying each of the concealers.

5. Taking my powder I apply this with my Eco-Tools bamboo brush.

6. Apply my contour kit using a RT contour brush.

7. Using the highlighter from the contour kit I take my RT stippling brush in the 

highest point of my cheekbones and then down the bridge of my nose and briskly applied to the cupids bow above my lips.

8. I then apply a small amount of the bronzer to the apples of my cheeks, temples and blend it into the contouring on the lower cheekbones using RT blush brush.

9. Using my eyebrow pencil I fill in my eyebrows slightly to just fill in the lines as my eyebrows are thin and brush these out using a basic brow brush. **Avon Glimmer stick Brow Definer in Dark Brown**

10. I take my paint pot to give myself a base on my eye lids using my finger tips and mix with any neutral colours for my lids and apply mascara to the top lashes only.

11. Finally, for my lips my go to's are either 'Kinda Sexy' or 'Mehr'- used with Rimmel lip liner pencil in underneath.

Additional eye liner, gel liner, or darker eye-shadow colour for crease (depending on the look and feel).
