Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure we have already seen so many posts about this palette, but thought I would share my thoughts and swatches anyways. I had my eye on this palette for a long time and it was sold out for awhile so when it finally got back in stock on Beautybay, I jumped at the chance to purchase it. Fortunately my cousin got me a gift card for £20 for Beautybay, so I knew straight away what to use it on! I must admit, I was a little torn as I didn't know if I should get the Huda Beauty Palette or this one, but I decided on the Modern Renaissance Palette in the end.</div>

Let's begin with the packaging of this beauty. The palette comes in a sleek design with the cover in a lovely pink suede. Usually I don't like suede because of how dirty it gets but that's when it's black suede. This being a baby pink colour was a good choice as you won't be able to tell when it's dirty or see any uneven markings on the material. I'm absolutely loving rose gold these days, so I definitely like the embossed rose gold colour of the logo. The palette has a magnetic closure to it and also a ribbon inside to easily be able to pop out the brush that's included in the palette. This palette also includes a mirror on the inside, so it's perfect for on the go as it also includes the brush and it's a decent size to take with in your handbag/travel bag.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This palette contains 14 eyeshadow colours, including 11 matte shades and 3 shimmer shades. I love the berry tones in this palette, it looks so pretty. But there are also neutral shades to which makes this palette so versatile and you are able to create many different looks with this. Within the palette, you also get a dual ended brush to use with the shadows, although I never use the brushes that come with eyeshadow palettes. There's no reason why, I just always gravitate to my brush collection naturally. All my Urban Decay palettes also include brushes that I never use. I would most likely use it when taking the palette on the go.<br />
<br />
Time to see the colours in action!<br />

The shadows are so pigmented and full of colour. I used this palette yesterday and the shadows are so easy to blend. The bottom row of shadows will allow you to create such a nice, warm and autumnal look, and topped up with that gold shimmer shade, a beautiful creation made.<br />
There is one thing I did notice about some the shadows, which is that there is some fall out when tapping your brush in the shadows. It's not with all of them, but the one shadow I used yesterday, which is called Buon Fresco, had fall out when I used it with my brush. But this not bother me at all, the colour and formula of the shadows make up for this.<br />
<br />
If you love a palette that has a lot of matte eyeshadows, berry and neutral tones, then I would really recommend getting this eyeshadow palette. I probably would have liked at least one more shimmer shadow in this collection, possibly a nice berry shimmer shade, but the 3 shimmer shades is still enough to give you that pop of colour and sheen to your eye look. This is the first product I've bought from Anastasic Beverly Hills and I'm not dissapointed. I'm glad I have this beauty in my collection.<br />
<br />
This palette is currently in stock on the <a href="http://www.beautybay.com/cosmetics/anastasiabeverlyhills/modernrenaissanceeyeshadowpalette/">Beautybay</a> website for £41, but be quick as they do sell out quickly. I would definitely recommend picking this up, it just feels and looks so beautiful, and definitely includes colours that I would use.<br />
<br />
Have you got your hands on this delicious palette yet?<br />

I just think it's good because it will give people an idea of how Birchbox is if anyone is on the fence about subscribing to them. And also, if anyone is nosey, like myself, and like to see what others get in their boxes, then these posts are also helpful.<br />

This month's box is in collaboration with Papier. They are a stationary company - I love stationary! In this months box, we were able to choose which design of the box we would like to receive. Which is another reason why I like Birchbox because they sometimes give you the option to choose something about your subscription this month whether it be the design of the box or the shade of the product that you would like. A great touch! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The other option was a white and green box but I chose this one. We also had the option to purchase a notebook for £8 - in which I did buy but I know I don't need it. I just like stationary and can't help myself. It has a positive message on it so I thought why not?</div>

This is a herbal blend to detangle, nourish and inject moisture in your hair. I never use hair care products as I'm too lazy and never do different styles with my hair but this will be good if you wash your hair just before you need to go out and this will allow you to brush through your hair quicker and get through the tangles easier.</div>

I am an eyeshadow junkie and eyeshadow is my favourite part when it comes to doing a makeup look, so this was nice to receive. The colours go well together and I can quickly see an easy look to do with this trio. Simply use the middle shade for the lid, the last darker shade for the crease and outer V and the first lighter shade for the inner corner or brow bone highlight. They swatch pretty well on my hands. Cute colours that I would definitely use.</div>

We already got a sneak peak last month that everyone would be receiving this brush in their box this month and I was excited because I really like their brushes. I only have one other brush from them but I really like how soft they are and expected nothing less from this one. It does feel super soft as expected and it pairs well with the eyeshadow trio that we received in this box to. Not to mention the rose gold and white look to the design of the brush - can't go wrong there.</div>

I've been trying to get into my masks and use them regularly - atleast once a week or so. So this was a nice treat to get, especially as it's a Korean skincare item and I hear that Korean skincare is really good. This mask claims to revitalise the skin in minutes with its hydrating blend of vital vitamins and mulberry extracts that sinks into tired complexions. </div>

We already got a another sneak peak of one item that we will all definitely be receiving. We will be receiving a sample of a treat from Benefit - They're Real! Double The Lip. We also got the choice to choose which colour shade we wanted - I already chose mine. So that's a nice little something to look forward to!</div>

Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's post is the 2nd edition of my product empties. I had accumulated so many empty perfumes so I thought I would group them all together, so fragrances is the theme for this edition of empties.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I use perfume on an everyday basis, usually every morning before I go to work. I think I use too much at a time, but I just want to make sure it will last me all day. With this in mind, it doesn't take me long to finish a perfume. A few pumps of sprits on the wrists and neck and I'm good to go! I'm always on the hunt for that perfume that people can smell on you when you walk past them. I sometimes wish I can stop a stranger and ask them what perfume they're wearing, but they will think I'm a weirdo so I don't but maybe one day I will be brave enough to ask.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Let's begin with the fragrances I have gone through so far:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This perfume is unique among the bunch because this is a black liquid! Something different but expected because we all know that Lady Gaga likes to be unique and different with her style. Bearing this in mind, I didn't know what to expect of the scent. But I bought it anyways and I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it smelt! I love the scent of this and not what I expected at all. It's such a femine, light and sweet smelling perfume which is right up my alley!</div>

I never purchase perfume from Avon but I have a friend who was an Avon Representative so I thought I would try out some of their products and bought this perfume that came in a set with a body lotion to. The scent of this one is definitely very fruity and sweet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely LOVE this scent and if definitely one of my favourites. A very feminine, sweet smelling perfume. It has cherry, apple and blackcurrant notes and it all comes together so nicely. Definitely a smell you can get lost in if you're into this kind of scent. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

First of all, let's a minute to admire the cute packaging of this one. A heart shaped bottle, with a golden crown embedded with lilac jewels. Obviously not real gold, but it looks so cute. This is another sweet smelling perfume, you might have found a pattern here already with the type of fragrances I go for. So many sweet notes within this fragrance and I like it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Another sweet smelling scent but a bit more low key than the others. Definitely wearable for the day time for a sprizs of sweetness.</div>

You can tell this has been a very well loved fragrance, I have 2 empty bottles here! A very deep, fruity and sweet perfume. Definitely one for the evening, but I often wore this during the day time. But I like the scent and it's such an affordable perfume. This is probably one of the sweetest perfumes of this selection here so I would not recommend this one if you don't like over powering scents, or just use sparingly. It's also a beautifully decorated bottle, so that's an added bonus as it will look nice displayed in your room.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How are we all?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's post is all about the Kathleen Lights Palette by Morphe Brushes! I was so excited about this palette, it sold out so quickly and I checked their twitter a lot to see when it would come back in stock. I bought it as soon as it came back on sale on their website.</div>

If you haven't heard of Kathleen Lights, she is a Beauty Guru Youtuber and is one of my absolute favourites! I really don't need anymore eyeshadow palettes, but I just had to get this one and support her and seeing as I'm already a fan of Morphe's eyeshadows, I knew it wouldn't disappoint. Side note, she looks so cute here on the back cover of the box, also a sweet message for her fans.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The packaging of this palette is different compared to the usual Morphe eyeshadow palettes. The packaging of their palettes are usually in a hard black plastic with a click closure. This one is a made of a strong cardboard material and has a magnetic closure. Also the name of the palette is embedded with a red foil-like material, definitely something unique and different from their usual palettes. I like it because it makes the palette seem smaller, sleek and less bulky, which is a bonus for storage and also travelling.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
As an overall view of the colours in this palette, you can see that there are a few different looks that can be created with this palette. It has all the colours you would need for a day or evening look. It also has the essential colours such as the vanilla shades on the top row to blend into the brow bone as well as the inner corners. Also a black shade to smoke out any look.</div>

I love how there's that pop of colour with that emerald green colour eyeshadow, one of my favourites from this palette. I also like the second row where it contains the lovely burgundy shades and colours that will compliment each other very well. As usual with Morphe eyeshadows, the formula of the eyeshadows are so nice, buttery and pigmented. What more can you ask for from an eyeshadow?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This palette has a mix of mattes and shimmers, so you can easily create a look and blend it out nicely with the matte shades and have that pop of colour with any of the shimmer shades.</div>

This palette is limited edition but at the moment, it's still for sale on Morphe's <a href="https://www.morphebrushes.com/products/kathleen-lights">website</a>. It's priced at $14.99, but if you're like me and live in the UK, I had to pay quiet a lot for postage. Postage ended up being MORE than the actual palette. So do bear that in mind if you're from the UK and looking to purchase this palette. Fortunately, I did not get any custom charges, so atleast that's a plus.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you got this palette? Or do you have a favourite palette from Morphe Brushes?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello there everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How are we all? Hope you're all having a great start to 2017. Everything should be back in routine now. I was thinking the other day how the Festive Season seems so long ago. As soon as the lights and Christmas tree is down and the shops have taken down their gift set sales and festivities, we are back to reality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways, back to the topic at hand, January Birchbox! I will be showing you what goodies I got in this month's box, as I usually do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm liking the theme for this month! Sprinkle Happiness. I'm all about positivity, so I think we all need a sprinkle of happiness. I like how the box is also decorated with the dominant colour of yellow on the sliding box, which I feel represents brightness - Birchbox's way of wishing us a Happy New Year and hoping it's happy and bright perhaps?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmTHPbQV34AJO57wmumslOoMwYgAWlxRxcq7f_0ChQ62UNkXOBNJjK53wWu1uOl9FyOw_fNuVIkvNA2M89-yC35X58QhSZodM_hcRXjrHwKyZnw00sJLbyAkyQ6WAFthRctMAM-hBhHrE/s1600/IMG_1960.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmTHPbQV34AJO57wmumslOoMwYgAWlxRxcq7f_0ChQ62UNkXOBNJjK53wWu1uOl9FyOw_fNuVIkvNA2M89-yC35X58QhSZodM_hcRXjrHwKyZnw00sJLbyAkyQ6WAFthRctMAM-hBhHrE/s640/IMG_1960.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This leaflet that they supplied in the box is so cute, because not only does it fold out and show us the details of the products that's included in the box, but for this month it shows a tick list of cheer to help you smile throughout 2017. A sweet idea to start off the year. There are also little voucher codes for Hello Fresh, SecretSales and LaLaLab within the leaflet. Always helpful to save a few pennies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's begin!</div>

Now this is interesting because I don't think I've tried a pencil/crayon concealer before, I guess I've always thought they would be rough to use on the skin but this may surprise me. Will need to give this a go!</div>

This is a glow-boosting gel body bronzer. I barely use bronzing products or tanning products so I might not make use of this. But in the description, it says you can mix it in with your body lotion for a subtle radiance, so I might give it a try some day if I'm in an adventurous mood.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hand creams always come in handy, sometimes my hands do feel a little dry so I would usually reach for some sort of hand cream and try to always carry one in my hand bag. I also keep one at my desk at work. So I will definitely use this product up!</div>

I'm a nail polish junkie and have so many nail polishes, so this will be another one for my collection. This will look great on the accent nail.</div>

I think we got spoiled we got 3 full sized items which if you add up the value of these full sized items, its already worth more than what you paid for for the box. I think it was a good one this month.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm excited for next month's box though! They showed a teaser of what's to come in next month's box and it has made me excited...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>First of all, Happy New Year! Hope we all aim to make it even better than the last year.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess it wouldn't feel right to start off my blogging this year without posting a little introduction to this coming year and share some goals that I would like to attempt to achieve.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, I'm not calling this my New Years Resolutions, I'm just simply setting some goals for myself that I want to achieve. I'm not setting a time limit of one year to do these goals. I just want to get a little more organised and actually sit down and write down things that I want to achieve for myself whether it be little or small. I don't believe that we all should wait for the 1st of January to set resolutions for the year. Just manage your goals and priorities and no matter how long it takes to achieve them, you will, and you will feel great that you actually set your mind to something and you did it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This may sound silly because here I am in the beginning of January setting goals for myself which is similarly like doing New Years resolutions but I'm not. I just thought to myself that I have always thought about doing things and never actually getting round to doing them. I guess I just thought it's about time to do something and follow through with it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are some goals that I have set for myself and hoping to follow through with them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm also hoping that by writing them down, on paper and here on my blog, it will help me achieve them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Lets start with some blogging goals:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">I would like to blog more and keep it regular. Atleast 1 or 2 posts a week. If I feel like there is a busy week ahead, I should try and write a post in advance so that I can stay regular.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Improve on my blog photography.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Try to film and edit makeup videos. Maybe start off by doing short ones for my</li>
<li style="text-align: center;">Instagram then move on to Youtube.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Read more blogs.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;">Always promote my blog where I can.</li>
</ul>
<br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Now to other goals that are not blogging related:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li>Take up Portuguese and Spanish lessons. For those who don't know, I am Portuguese and can understand the Portuguese language but always get too shy to speak it so I want to get more confident in speaking it out loud. As for Spanish, I just really like the language and listen to a lot of Spanish songs and I find that Portuguese and Spanish are kind of similar so I'm hoping to pick it up quickly.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>I want to go to the gym at least 4 times a week. Preferably Monday-Thursday. If I miss a day, find another day in the week to make up for it.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Set aside some time for jewelry making. This is a hobby that I kind of started and became really interested in and suddenly stopped practicing and making time to practice. I have loads of supplies, I just need to practice more and maybe one day start selling my hand made pieces. Also, take on some day courses for jewelry making and learn some new things.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Write snail mail/pen pal letters. I have recently joined a pen pal community and will write 2 letters soon to 2 people. I just miss writing and thought it would be something fun and it's always nice to get to know someone new and possibly make new friends.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Visit new places! I have been living in England for over 10 years and</li>
<li>I feel like there are so many places that I have not visited.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Learn to drive!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Watch more episodes of series that are on my "To Watch" list.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Spend more money on clothes and useful things rather than spending too much on make up (let's see how this one goes...)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Get more into my skin care.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Read more books.</li>
</ul>
<div>
Okay so these are just some of the goals that I have. It may seem like a lot, but there is no time limit, no deadlines. It's just in my list and in my mind to do and go through with it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will look back on this blog post on New Years Eve of this year and see if there is anything I can check off.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hope you all have an awesome year and also achieve your goals!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">1. What’s your favourite Christmas movie?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />My favourite Christmas movie is definitely The Santa Clause 1. I watched it so many times and that little boy in there is so cute! lol. I have 2 and 3 on DVD but I still need to watch it. Maybe later this week.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">2. Have you ever had a white Christmas?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I think I have had a white Christmas, maybe back in 2010 when it snowed very heavily here in the UK. But it wasn't snowing on Christmas day, it snowed the day before and the snow was still settled on the ground and it was a White Christmas for sure.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">3. Where do you spend your Christmas day?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />We usually spend Christmas Day at home where we have a big Christmas lunch with the family. One year it will be at my house, the following year the family lunch is held at my aunty's house. So each year we alternate which house Christmas Day lunch will be held.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">4. What’s your favourite Christmas song?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />My favourite Christmas song is one of those traditional ones called Joy to the World. For some reason I really like this one. There is a group that I found on YouTube called Pentatonix that did a really good cover version of this song. I love their cover version. So good and very upbeat. <br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">5. Do you open your presents on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Well, we usually wait on Christmas Eve then open the presents at midnight, so technically, early hours of Christmas day.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">6. Can you name all Santa’s reindeers?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Is it bad that I can't name them all? I know Comet because I think in the movie Santa Clause 1, Comet is the little boys' favourite Reindeer.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">7. What are you looking forward to about Christmas this year?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Spending time with family is the main thing. During the year, everyone is so busy so it's so rare that we can see other, so this is one of the days in the year where the whole family comes together.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">8. Is your tree fake or real?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Fake tree. I don't think we've ever had a real Christmas tree.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">9. What’s your favourite Christmas dish?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Don't think I have a favourite, I'm not too fussy with food. All food tastes good on Christmas!<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">10. Be honest. Do you prefer to give or to receive?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I like to give, especially when I know for sure that they will like the gift.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">11. Best Christmas Gift?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I appreciate all the Christmas gifts I receive. However, last year I was so so so surprised at the gift my boyfriend got me! He bought me this big makeup storage/cosmetic case, it even has light bulbs inside, a mirror and legs for it to stand on. I'm able to store a lot of my makeup inside it so, that was really sweet of him and so unexpected.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">12. What’s your dream destination to spend Christmas day?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />To be honest, anywhere where I have my family with me. I don't think it would feel like Christmas without my family. But I would love to travel somewhere during the Christmas season to see all the Christmas lights and everything. Maybe Paris or New York....<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">13. Are you a pro wrapping presents, or do you fail miserably?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I'm not a pro, but I think I am getting better each year and slightly starting to enjoy the wrapping process.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">14. Do you have a Favourite Christmas memory?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />My favourite memories of Christmas is years ago when I was still living back home in Cape Town, and my aunty would have the family round her house and play her Portuguese music which got everyone into the spirit. Also, me and my cousin would love collecting all the little toys you get in the Christmas crackers. <br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">15. What led you to the truth about Santa?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I don't think I ever strongly believed in Santa. I always knew it was just a character.<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">16. Do you have New Year Resolutions? Do you stick to it?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />I don't have New Year Resolutions, I have goals. I think it's better to set yourself goals that you would like to achieve. Just need to make sure to not forget what my goals are and try and take a step closer to reaching them. <br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" /><b style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;">17. What makes Christmas so important to you?</b><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 16.5px;" />Again, it would have to be family time.<br />

Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope you're all doing well. Thought it was about that time of the month where I post up a Christmasy post. I won't be doing Blogmas, but I usually post once a week and I will try and post Christmas themed posts from now up until Christmas. December has started and it's officially time that we can all get a little festive!</div>

Today's post is just some little gift ideas that you can fill up someones Christmas stocking with or even just add it on to someone's gift to add a little something something. I always have the habit of buying a main gift then also adding something small to it just to complete it. As you probably might have already seen, this is the time of year where a lot of shops sell gift sets, which makes it so tempting to them for yourself. I have picked up a few bits that I think will be a cute touch to a main gift or perhaps pair these little gifts with a box of chocolates and you're good to go!</div>

First up we have this Best of Body Butter Festive Dome.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is so cute! It retails for £30 at the <b><u><a href="https://www.thebodyshop.com/en-gb/gifts/christmas-gifts/best-of-body-butter-festive-dome/p/p002244">Body Shop</a></u></b> but when I got this, I bought their advent calendar at the same time and because I spent over £30, I was able to get this gift for free. Which was a great surprise because I was eyeing this when I walked in the store! It includes 5 mini body butters in different flavours. You could give this as a whole or open up the dome and individually distribute them among your friends or family and decide which flavour they will like the best.</div>

Here we have a gift set from Ted Baker. There is a nice selection of Ted Baker gift sets in Boots. Secretly, I bought this one because of how pretty the bag looks, and the zipper is a rose gold bow! It really caught my eye, so I had to get it. This would make a nice gift and they can use the bag for their makeup or toiletries. This retails for £14 at<u><b> <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Ted-Baker-Pretty-Little-Thing_1865342/">Boots</a></b></u>.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here we have a little trio of nail polishes from Primark's beauty range. I've never tried their polish before but I look forward to trying their nails range and see how it is. This just caught my eye because of the rose gold lids of the bottles and also that glittery pink shade in the middle! Perfect to get those nails looking festive with a little glitter! This trio retails for just £2.50! I bought this back in October/beginning November so I'm not sure if they still sell it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Probably one of my favourites from the bunch, this is the Naturally Nude Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick set from Stila. This is a perfect gift for that makeup lover! I've heard good things about Stilas liquid lipstick and this is the perfect way to try it out with this little trio set. You can get it on Stila's <b><u><a href="https://stila.co.uk/collections/liquid-lipstick/products/naturally-nude-stay-all-day-liquid-lipstick-set">website</a></u></b> for £18. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Last but not least, another nails trio from Essie. Retailing for £15 at <b><u><a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Essie-Rockin-Around-the-Tree-Christmas-Gift-Set_1893350/">Boots</a></u></b> for 3 full sized nail polishes. You can also give these as a whole gift or give them out individually. That red is so pretty and a great colour for the festive season. I would wear these colours any time of the year. So this would be a great gift for that person who loves all things nails!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And there we have it! Different gift sets that can either be given as a whole or individually. I wish they sold gift sets all year round! Boots are also have a 3 for 2 offer going on at the moment on gift sets, so have a look in your local Boots.</div>

Hey everybody!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's post is about a very pretty eyeshadow palette that I have recently purchased from BH Cosmetics. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYW0ht8sLQ-feyJS3mSyK9L_A1WGN4uIyIQQ7vCpkLXmrnywiigCzg99-jMIOCZuPCQ9eUHa24I3mVNjs22sWY-_KRk4wxeWkwU3IJtFQQiSBZkddnh05_FZUYWbtU7YpivKlTNM1N4w4/s1600/IMG_1857.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="502" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYW0ht8sLQ-feyJS3mSyK9L_A1WGN4uIyIQQ7vCpkLXmrnywiigCzg99-jMIOCZuPCQ9eUHa24I3mVNjs22sWY-_KRk4wxeWkwU3IJtFQQiSBZkddnh05_FZUYWbtU7YpivKlTNM1N4w4/s640/IMG_1857.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
They have 2 eyeshadow palettes in this Marble Collection. I bought the Cool Stone one and the other one is the Warm stone one which, as the name suggests, contains more warmer colours like browns, an orange and neutral shades. I thought I have colours like that in my collection already and thought I would get more use out of this Cool Stone palette as I would definitely use these colours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The other difference with the Warm stone palette, is that it has white marble on the packaging while this Cool Stone one has light purple marble.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The packaging is made of strong plastic with the BH Cosmetics logo in gold. This palette has a purple marble texture look to the packaging, which I know we all love a bit of marble! It also has a click in closure to it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The palette seems very sturdy and definitely easy to carry around with you. Especially with it's big mirror in the interior using all the space of the lid, which is a plus.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The colours look so pigmented and colourful, so I had to make some swatches. That pink colour in the top row definitely caught my eye when I first opened this up and you will see why...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are swatches starting from the top row going left to right.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's take a minute...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
AREN'T THEY SO PRETTY??!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All the swatches are taken with no primer and in natural daylight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These colours are so gorgeous and you are able to create a few different eyeshadows looks with this palette. You can even do a really nice and natural day time look with the brown shades in the top row. The pink in the top row and that blue shade in the last row are such pretty shades that really stand out among the rest of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But they're all pretty nice shades. The first white shimmery colours in the middle and last row are quite similar shades, although I did notice that the shimmery white in the last row has a bit of a lilac iridescent sheen to it when in the light, so that may be the main difference between the two. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All the shades swatched so easily and are very buildable. With a really nice mixture of matte and shimmer eyeshadows in this palette, I'm really happy with this purchase and I'm excited to try it on my eyes soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't think people talk about BH Cosmetics and their eyeshadows as much as they should. I think they are under rated. I have a few eyeshadow palettes from BH Cosmetics now and their eyeshadows are so pigmented and full of colour. I also love their makeup brushes to!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bought this palette directly from their <b><a href="http://www.bhcosmetics.com/">website</a> </b>for $12. Ofcourse I also had to pay for international shipping as it's from America, but this wasn't too bad. It was only about $7 for standard international shipping. Although becareful when you order a lot of items at once because of the extra customs charge. I bought other two palettes along side this one and I didn't get charged for customs which was a great surprise!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, <b><a href="http://beautybay.com/bhcosmetics/">Beautybay</a></b> has now started stocking BH Cosmetics products! Yay! So now it's easier to get hold of BH Cosmetics product in the UK. But Beautybay is not stocking ALL their products just yet so keep a look out. I love how Beautybay is starting to stock a lot more American brands now on their site.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you tried any BH Cosmetics products?</div>

This month's box is in a collaboration with Tatler magazine. The theme of this box is to get ready and prepared for the upcoming party and festive season. It seems like Birchbox is sticking with the boxes where you open them from the side like a draw, great idea! You can collect the boxes each month and make a mini drawer compartment! The design of this month's box is also really cute with the blue feathers, which kind of reminds me of a Peacock.</div>

I think we all would like a lipstick that lasts a long time on our lips without having to reapply. This product claims to prep your lips for colour with this treatment. It contains Vitamin E, hemp and peppermint oils to soothe and hydrate your lips which in turn should help keep your lipstick looking good and staying in place for longer. Interested to find out if this will work well.</div>

This is simply a mineral-rich spring water that you can spritz on your face to help soothe and refresh your complexion. I always forget to use products like this! But it seems like this would be good for a night out and your face needs a refresh or even if you've had a long day at work and meeting someone afterwards, this will be great for refreshing your skin with.

There we go! All the products I've received in this months box. I love how the booklet that you get says Shake Your Tail Feather on the cover, it just reminds me of that song by Nelly ft P Diddy and Murphy Lee. Old school tune!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone! How are we all?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's been a busy past week or 2 so I wasn't able to put up a post last week, but today I'm here with a post that's all about GOMO! What is this GOMO thing about you may ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've heard that Eventbrite have come out with a great phrase this Autumn. Their aim is to get rid of the FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and getting people to go out more this Autumn instead of staying indoors. They want to end this FOMO and to promote GOMO - Going Out More Often! Kind of has a catchy tone to it doesn't it? Which is a great idea! Although I do like my lazy days and staying indoors all day in my pyjamas, sometimes I do want a bit of fresh air! I'm sure we all hate the feeling of wasting a day sometimes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I will be going through some ideas of things you can do to get yourself outside in this fresh Autumn season! It's very simple and inexpensive ways, so why not try it out :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1. TAKE A WALK WITH YOUR CAMERA</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay, you're probably thinking this is a boring idea! But, if you're like me and sometimes love to capture what nature provides in Autumn, this is a great idea. If you're into your photography or just simply love taking nice and naturalistic pictures, you should give this a go. Seeing as we're in Autumn, the first thing that comes to mind is the different colour leaves! This always catches my eye. If you go for a walk, just take a look around. Take photos of the colourful leaves and show it to your friends and family or even on your social media handles. The leaves are quite photogenic if you ask me! Especially when it's in a multiple of browns, yellow and reds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are a few photos that I took a few years back with my camera.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love taking photos like this! Besides taking photos of beauty products and swatches, I also love taking naturalistic photos like this. Also sunsets are gorgeous to photograph!</div>

<b>2. COFFEE (CALLING ALL COFFEE LOVERS)</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ah, we have now come to another love in my life, I'm sure also a love for a lot of people! Now there's one certain type of coffee that always seems to come out at this time of year, which is called the Pumpkin Spiced Latte! You know what? I have never even tasted one before, I have decided this year, I am definitely going to have one to see why everyone is loving this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So in Autumn, it would be such a cosy idea to gather a small group of friends or catch up with a friend that you haven't seen in awhile and go to a coffee shop. Nothing like a good cup of coffee and a cake to warm yourself up and have a good old catch up with your buddies. This is a simple idea to carry out with even if you're a person that works a full time job, or your usual 9 to 5. You can meet up with someone straight after work, like I sometimes do, and chill out after a hard days work. Below is a yummy looking photo of when I went on holiday last year in Madeira. Coffee with Pasties de Nata (Portuguese Custard tarts). I absolutely love this stuff!</div>

<b>3. BIRTHDAY GATHERING AND AUTUMN-ISH OUTFIT</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the reasons why I didn't put up a post last week was because it was my birthday and I had a few things going on. As my birthday falls in Autumn here in the UK, I thought I would share what I had planned and also perhaps inspire you with an idea for if your birthday is coming up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
For my birthday, I just came up with a simple casual idea to invite a few close friends to go out for dinner and drinks. Sometimes it's a bit chilly this time of year, so I thought this would be a great idea to have a cosy gathering indoors and it also gave us all a chance to talk to each other while enjoying some good food and drinks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went to Slug and Lettuce for dinner, which was great! The restaurant had such a good vibe with a nicely lit place with their different coloured lighting. And also, because I booked a table, it felt really special that they included some balloons on the table, some purple candles and reservation cards. The purple candles is probably something that's always there, but hey, it was special to me anyways! Not to mention, they had some cool music blaring through the evening, so it was really nice. They also had a 2 for 1 deal on their cocktails, which was also a cherry on top. Even if it's not your birthday, this is still a nice idea to go out with your friends.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This was my outfit for the evening, which I think suits the season well. I'm by no means a fashionable person at all! But I like this outfit! I dressed up with a simple purple/plum blouse (Primark), black trousers (H&M) and comfortable heels (New Look). The easiest way to zazz up a simple outfit is with a bit of jewellery, so I wore a long silver necklace to compliment the outfit. A simple small black hand bag and blazer, for incase it gets too chilly, and you're ready to go! I also had a deep coloured purple nail polish on my hand and toe nails to match my top! Autumn is all about getting out your plums and burgundy colours out of the closet. A great outfit to go out with in Autumn as it's not an outfit that will make you feel too hot or too cold, but just right!<br />
<br />
There we have it. 3 simple ways to Go Out More this Autumn!<br />
<br />
So what are you waiting for? Get out there and create some memories with your friends or enjoy what nature has to offer us this season!<br />
<br />
If you haven't heard of Eventbrite, they are the largest self-servicing ticketing platform in the world that helps people find and plan events. I have booked tickets with them twice already and the process is simple. So I'm glad that they have approached me to help them with their project of promoting this great idea.<br />
<br />
If you wish to plan any events with Eventbrite and make things easier for yourselves when it comes to planning something, you can visit their website <b><a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/l/event-management-software/">HERE</a></b> for their event planning and management software. They help support local event creations in your area. They also support ticket sales and a variety of other features.<br />
<br />
Here's to a wonderful Autumn of getting rid of the FOMO and instead let's GOMO!</div>

Hello there everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope everyone's weekend is going well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few weeks ago I received some blogger mail and got some goodies from the brand Kiss. Ashleigh from my Twitter kindly sent me some goodies from this brand. I decided to try some things out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was surprised by my how much products I received! So I'm grateful that I got sent these. I decided to try out these pretty french manicure style glue on nails! I was intrigued by these because I was curious as to how long these glue on nails would stay put on your nails. I put it to the test and wore them for a whole week! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bur first, let me show you how I prepared my nails before putting them on. At the back of this packaging, it had easy to follow instructions as to how to put them on. So I followed the instructions and it was nothing complicated. Simple and easy to follow.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Firstly, I used some cotton pads and nail polish remover to remove any trace of polish on my nails to ensure the nails have a clear canvas for the false nails to adhere to. After that I grabbed my Burt's Bees Cuticle Cream just to soften my cuticles a little bit before using the manicure sticks to push them back. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtJAz9XctfskC4OGuPfiIjAyuF5yNagIJOAK8Kxr_AzB6FS0fM8All74Lsg15ukW4QKZa-IQeRsAGnx1X3JMPbKRphjGDc-qzfDjlnqX3zxHCVmPqVm9ExLCFQ3eaBqxNNXBNtF5oWCPc/s1600/IMG_1668.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtJAz9XctfskC4OGuPfiIjAyuF5yNagIJOAK8Kxr_AzB6FS0fM8All74Lsg15ukW4QKZa-IQeRsAGnx1X3JMPbKRphjGDc-qzfDjlnqX3zxHCVmPqVm9ExLCFQ3eaBqxNNXBNtF5oWCPc/s640/IMG_1668.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thereafter, I removed the packaging from the false nails and I had to decide which size I needed for each nail. Fortunately, all the nails have small numbers at the back of them printed very lightly and small. So I only had to choose five sizes and look for the same numbers for my other hand. I made sure they were neatly set out in order and ready for me to glue each nail on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikiCWCzb3B3mQL8UMn1hNV5rrokz5LIDxRQboxDCVQ6I8SMHtNFzzirD-w-6-vs4wIgmq5WHEg1W06Ndkn8hQrOErLKAAbKq3E5lyu_yBpcDA1dckPiwuIJSo4mxh1ATtmG7ytD0SUF8U/s1600/IMG_1665.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikiCWCzb3B3mQL8UMn1hNV5rrokz5LIDxRQboxDCVQ6I8SMHtNFzzirD-w-6-vs4wIgmq5WHEg1W06Ndkn8hQrOErLKAAbKq3E5lyu_yBpcDA1dckPiwuIJSo4mxh1ATtmG7ytD0SUF8U/s640/IMG_1665.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Very nice of them to also include the nail glue within this package because then I didn't have to go out and buy my own as I don't own any nail glue. After getting all the false nails together and prepping my own nails, I was ready to start gluing the false nails on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This Nail Glue from Kiss is a brush applicator, kind of like nail polish applicators, which made the application so so easy! As per the instructions on the pack, I had to brush the glue on my natural nails and also the back of the false nails. Then I placed the nails on my natural nails and aligning it along my cuticles. Then press down the false nails for about 5 seconds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I soon realised after applying the false nails that they were a little bit too long and I preferred a more square shape to my nails. So as another test, I trimmed them slightly and filed them down a little.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After cutting and filing the nails, they were still staying put on my nails and they were not hard to cut or file either. Below is how they look after I trimmed and reshaped them slightly.</div>

I love how these nails looked on me! The colour of the nails looks so natural and so flattering to your hands. I wore these nails for a week and I guess I felt a bit more glamorous than usual with these nails. They looked so elegant and clean. Love the look of them! Throughout the week they still stayed as clean and glossy as they were when I first put them on. On the packaging they note that the nails are Ultra Flexible, and it's true. They fit nicely on my nails and it felt really comfortable while I was wearing them. To me they also looked natural to.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You're probably wondering about the durability of the nails right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the first morning I had the nails, I by mistake grabbed something twice with my nails instead of my fingers which caused the 2 nails to come off. However, this is because I was not used to these long nails yet. I had the glue with me so I just glued them back on. Besides that little encounter on the first day, they lasted pretty well throughout the week. I'm actually very impressed by how they lasted on my nails. I have bathed with these nails, washed dishes, cleaned the house and they still lasted well. On Saturday morning another nail came off but only because I was putting my trainers on and squeezed my finger inside the trainer at the back to put my foot inside. But at this point, I was already impressed by these nails.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I applied these nails on a Sunday night. The photo below is how they look the next Sunday afternoon.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
They still looked pretty decent a week later. I did start removing them that evening just to test the removal process. In the instructions, you are instructed to cut and file the nails to disrupt the surface. Then soak in Acetone nail polish remover. I tried this method with one nail as it was getting pretty late that evening so I didn't have time to do them all at one time. After soaking in the acetone, it starts to melt away and you are then able to wipe it further away with cotton pads. What makes it even better is that they don't leave any damage to your natural nails once they've been removed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overall, I have loved using these nails. It made my hands feel so feminine and pretty, I always caught myself looking at my own nails. It kind of gave the illusion that my fingers were thinner! As I said above, it definitely added a bit of glamour to my normal nails, which I enjoyed. I would definitely recommend these nails for you to try out!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

Hello everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How are we all this weekend?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought I would start a new "series" you could say of product empties. I have collected a few empty products over the past few months so instead of showing you all of them at the same time, it will be shown in parts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In between parts more empties will be collected over time of course.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So I introduce you to Part 1 of the products I have finished up and my thoughts on them!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Further below I will be going through each product, my thoughts on them and pricing details.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This product is a staple in my collection! I also restock this and buy backups as I go through them so quickly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my every day concealer that I use for my dark circles, therefore because I use this on a daily basis, they finish up quickly. I really like this product and it lasts all day and I also always set the concealer with my finishing powder. Love this stuff and have been repurchasing these for a long while. I even bought another one last night!</div>

Here we have yet another staple product that I keep on repurchasing again and again. I use this every night to remove my eye make up and it does a really good job. It's not oily and does not irritate my eyes in any way, it's very gentle and I love this stuff. I would definitely recommend this product to remove your eye makeup.</div>

This perfume is very sweet smelling but it does linger! Which is great because I have always wanted a perfume that people can smell when I use it When I wore this perfume, a colleague of mine at work said my perfume smells good. And a stranger on the street one morning even stopped me to ask what perfume I'm wearing! That day I was really impressed by this! It's very inexpensive to, so I may have to repurchase this soon as it's on offer at Boots.</div>

Here we have another product that I have been repurchased twice already. This is also a product I use on an everyday basis as a setting powder for my face and the under eyes.

I want to talk about these two products together because I used them at the same time. Obviously one for the day time before I apply my makeup and I used the night one after I take off my make and use this as a night moisturiser. I enjoyed using these. They are very gentle and sinks into the skin nicely therefore leaving your skin soft. I would repurchase this.</div>

<b>Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Price: £22</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A hefty price tag, but this is a good setting spray. I remember awhile ago going to London for the whole day and used this setting spray before I left the house and I was so surprised when it came to later in the evening, I noticed my makeup was still looking good and my eyeshadow look was still looking fine. That moment I realised how good this product was. Because of the price tag, I am using cheaper setting sprays at the moment to try other brands out there that cost less. But if you want to treat yourself and don't mind spending £22 on a good setting spray, go for it! I will repurchase this one day, but I have some sprays I still need to finish up.</div>

I feel accomplished that I have finished a cream eyeshadow, which is a first for me! This product is awesome! A lovely brown, this shade is definitely a colour that you can just put on your lids with nothing else. Using your finger to spread it out on your lid and blend it in and you're ready to go. This also lasts and stays on your eyes all day. I loved using this for days where you just don't feel like going to too much effort with your eye makeup but you do want it too last all day to make it look like you did put some effort in. I would totally recommend this product!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There we have it! My first edition of my empties. I have more empty products to come in later posts so keep a look out for those.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope you enjoyed this post and seeing my thoughts on these products.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope you're all having a good weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's post is about the Autumn Edition of the Discovery Club! A sample perfume subscription box at only £5 for quarterly month. So you only receive a box every 3 months. I have been subscribed to this box for a very long time now and I love receiving these perfume samples. Not only is it a good way to try and smell different perfumes, you also never run out of perfume!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have received 7 samples in this seasons box. Sometimes the quantity of samples you receive vary but it's never less than 5 or 6. Sometimes you get even more than 7, which is always a nice surprise!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As with every box, you also get a little booklet which shows information about all the perfumes you received, page by page of each perfume. Included in this booklet are also the full sized prices of the perfume and also a discount code for £5 off the full sized product. I'm sure we all know how expensive perfume can be, so every little helps!</div>

You do receive a mixture of fragrances for men and woman. However, the majority of the selection received is mostly fragrances for her. Which is good in my case. Perhaps if you're a male subscriber, this might change to perhaps more male fragrances, don't quote me on that! I have no idea. But that would make sense though right? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are the names of the fragrances I have received:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And that concludes all the samples I have received. I only received 2 fragrances for men, so that's good. However, don't let this put you off of subscribing if you're keen on fragrances. Sometimes it's good to see what fragrances are out there for men as it can give you ideas on perhaps a gift for your boyfriend, friend, your dad or any man in your life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overall, I'm liking this seasons box. I'm never disappointed with the boxes I receive because they are samples after all. It's not like you invested £30-£60 on a perfume to find out that you don't like it at all. So as always, I would definitely recommend trying out this subscription box if you like perfumes and keen on trying out some new ones. You can check out the link <b><a href="http://www.thefragranceshop.co.uk/discovery-how-it-works.aspx">HERE</a></b> to find out more on what this box is about and to subscribe.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will now put this in my perfume sample stash! </div>

Here's to always smelling good! :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's post is about this palette that Nikkie Tutorials worked on with Too Faced. I only received this last week and I was also lucky enough to go to her Meet and Greet in London last week Saturday and got to meet her. She is beautiful and very tall compared to me, you will see soon in the photos later in this post :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I only own 2 other products from Too Faced, but I must say, their packaging is really cute and they did a really good job with this palette and making it resemble Nikkie Tutorials. This palette will definitely stand out in your makeup collection, I know I don't have any makeup product that have these leopard (or is it cheetah?) prints. Which is a good thing.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When you purchase this palette, you get some other goodies with it as well. Which makes the price so worth it! The other 4 products that you receive with the palette are; Too Faced Deluxe Glamour Dust Shade: Glitterally (1.0g), Too Faced Deluxe Shadow Insurance (5g), Too Faced Sketch Marker in Black(0.45ml) and the Too Faced Deluxe Better Than Sex Mascara Exclusive Purple Shade (4.8g). Only the Sketch Marker is Full Sized.<br />

<br />
Most of these extra products are items that I have been wanting to try out from Too Faced, so I think it was a really good idea putting this whole pack together so now I can try out more products from Too Faced and see if they're worth buying the full sized products.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Now, for the star of the show, the swatches of the pretty shadows!<br />

<br />
All these colours are swatched to almost the best of their abilities. All the shadows are buildable to great pigmentation as you can see in the swatches above. The only shade that had fall out from swatching with my fingers is the shade called, Sugar Coated. But, that does not bother me, I just have to becareful when dipping my brush on there when I come to use it.<br />
<br />
The Chocolate Soleil shade took a lot to get the shade to be as vibrant as my swatch. But this may be a good thing because Chocolate Soleil is actually a bronzer from their regular line of makeup, which also makes a good edition to the palette. Having the shade to be not as pigmented as the shadows, allows you to easily build up your contour gradually without being worried that your going to add too much then struggle later to blend it out to make it look natural. An added bonus is that it also smells like chocolate!<br />
<br />
Champagne Truffle also is not as pigmented as the shadows, however, this could also be a good thing because of the same reason as the bronzer mentioned above. This shade is also one of their shadows from the Chocolate Bar Palette. I don't own the Chocolate Soleil Bronzer or the Chocolate Bar Palette, so this is also something new to try from Too Faced.<br />
<br />
The blush shades, I Will Always Love you and Jusitfy My Love, are so pretty and will definitely look good on the cheeks.<br />

<br />
There are so many different looks to create with this palette, so it's definitely worth getting. Natural looks or colourful looks, with 2 blushes, a bronzer and a highligh in this palette, you can almost create a whole full look with this bundle pack. With the added bonus items, which justified me purchasing this whole bundle, I think it's a great idea as we can now try some of Too Faced products which are not limited edition. Although, the actually eyeshadow palette is limited edition. I must admit, when something like this is limited edition, I also use this to justify to myself to get this palette.<br />

I bought this palette from the Debanhams website and collected it at my local Debanhams store. However, I cannot find this on their website at the moment. The official Too Faced website still has this palette in stock and you can visit the website <a href="https://www.toofaced.com/p/eye-shadow-palettes/the-power-of-makeup-by-nikkie-tutorials/" style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">HERE</a><a href="https://www.toofaced.com/p/eye-shadow-palettes/the-power-of-makeup-by-nikkie-tutorials/">.</a> This whole bundle is going for £48 on the Too Faced website and they do deliver to the UK. Or, if your local Debanhams does stock all the Too Faced products including this palette then do go have a look in the store if you like what you see.<br />
<br />
Here are the photos I spoke about in the beginning of this post from her London Meet and Greet last week. I love how Too Faced came and handed these heart shaped signs, so cute!<br />

It was a fun day to be among all of Nikki's fans and my cousin who I went along with to the Meet and Greet.<br />Those Snapchat Geo Tags made the event extra special lol.<br />
<br />
My overall thoughts on the Power of Makeup Palette; would I recommend this product?<br />
<br />
If you're an eyeshadow palette junkie, like myself, you probably own a bunch of eyeshadow palettes which will include the same colours as this palette does. Therefore, the colours won't be new to you and probably won't suggest buying it for that reason.<br />
<br />
However, if you're like me, and is a person that likes to support beauty bloggers and their collaborations then yes go and buy it. The other reason I bought this palette is because I wanted to try out Too Faced products. When I saw the price of this palette, I did think it was expensive but then I saw all the other extra products that come with it and this sold it to me.<br />
<br />
Have you got your hands on The Power of Makeup Palette yet? What are your favourite Too Faced makeup products?<br />

Today's post is about this beautiful highlighting palette that I'm sure you have seen everyone in the beauty blogging world rave about. I got my hands on it a few weeks ago and I must say, it's pretty impressive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7gp63_Nseognx4c44R38glJoq8wi_A-G8ityoExcMHFxuzh4E2TCUQE3yMjDFWSvx1gu5tQu612dq65sjlh57x9m0wqjzGYIzsN5HJnpuxJ4pcWGKkWZjVROWhRIln6AlSnsYoU913kY/s1600/IMG_1430.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7gp63_Nseognx4c44R38glJoq8wi_A-G8ityoExcMHFxuzh4E2TCUQE3yMjDFWSvx1gu5tQu612dq65sjlh57x9m0wqjzGYIzsN5HJnpuxJ4pcWGKkWZjVROWhRIln6AlSnsYoU913kY/s640/IMG_1430.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First of all, I am loving the packaging of this palette! The sleek golden packaging makes this product look so luxurious without breaking the bank! Because this palette is so compact, it is great to take with you when you go travelling. This will be the only highlighting palette you'll need!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH-_51IR6_H9OVyDld4UviXujKtKtHrykLjawDGGwVbgR4VexgeYxutu6KQtXqjaGwR6JuLtoL5s2aEzsi21if09ULhAsDv-al8STC5lLg0AMnHKtcrgkh8IVWcrNYe9iwtvjlohuroOo/s1600/IMG_1440.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH-_51IR6_H9OVyDld4UviXujKtKtHrykLjawDGGwVbgR4VexgeYxutu6KQtXqjaGwR6JuLtoL5s2aEzsi21if09ULhAsDv-al8STC5lLg0AMnHKtcrgkh8IVWcrNYe9iwtvjlohuroOo/s640/IMG_1440.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This palette comes with 4 highlighting shades and a brush which I will probably never use. I always use a fan brush these days for my highlighter. But I guess the only times that I will be using the brush is if I take this travelling with me. This palette also has a soft magnetic closure so it makes it super easy to open and close without any fuss.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All shades are of a powder texture except one shade, Ecliptic, on the top left corner. This shade has a cream texture. Not quite sure why there is only one cream shade and the rest are powder, seems a bit random. Although you can probably use the cream shade as a base and use one of the other colours on top of it to give it an extra intense highlight. Let's not forget that these shades can also be used as eyeshadows. The shade named Subsolar would be great for the inner corners and brow bone highlight.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are the swatches. I am VERY impressed with the pigmentation of these!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
All of the shades are so pigmented and makes the perfect highlight because of their intensity. The shades are very blendable and buildable to. This photo is taken with no flash and even so you can see their beautiful pigmentation. With the ever growing beauty world of the highlighting trend, Sleek has really stepped up their game with this one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can purchase this palette from any Superdrug or Boots store for just £9.99. Yes, thats right. A small price tag for four pigmented highlighters!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're not living in the UK, you can purchase Sleek products from their <a href="http://www.sleekmakeup.com/uk"><i><b>website</b></i></a> that ships worldwide.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you were thinking of trying out this product, I would definitely say you should go out and get it. It is so worth it and I would recommend this product!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello all! Hope you're all having a great weekend. The weather has been nice and sunny, a good excuse to finally use my sunglasses. Today's blog post is about this month's Birchbox goodies!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN7U4J1vveV5FidY31v-ZM_QUL4NrKT0ox-LnCwJRKbAD8dBZZJBqW-4Sh3pvdZ8iYD7fKOOp8cu6imqrEZh-jbh3JIUSZvFRTZuUpqHnqWuWXw4Vnq8hmvkopdvYYO3U9nueduf_H6Ok/s1600/IMG_1400_edited-1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN7U4J1vveV5FidY31v-ZM_QUL4NrKT0ox-LnCwJRKbAD8dBZZJBqW-4Sh3pvdZ8iYD7fKOOp8cu6imqrEZh-jbh3JIUSZvFRTZuUpqHnqWuWXw4Vnq8hmvkopdvYYO3U9nueduf_H6Ok/s640/IMG_1400_edited-1.png" width="640" /></a></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So this month's box has a summer theme and the actual products were all in a scuba bag this time and not in an actual box like it usually comes in. I like how Birchbox always comes up with different themes and ideas with their boxes, it makes it more appealing and exciting.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bags come in different colours such as orange, yellow and pink. I got the green one. These bags feel like they're really good quality and ofcourse these will always come in handy when travelling. Let's see what goodies I have received this month!<br />

Before my box arrived, I was able to choose which colour I wanted for this and I chose the brown shade rather than the purple. I actually don't really own a brown eyeliner, so I though it would be good to try this out. I'm interested to see if this will wear well on the waterline because I always wear my black eyeliner on my waterline.</div>

I guess there is nothing unique about this product, I do however, always use hand sanitizing gel. So this will definitely come into good use. This hand gel is packed with vitamins to hydrate and nourish the skin. And lastly, an extra item for this month... </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have recently had my blog redesigned with a whole new look and a new name! This is the reason I am doing this giveaway - to celebrate the start of my newly designed blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For me, I feel like it's marking a new start almost. I felt like my blog needed a new look boost and it would help me motivate myself to start blogging more regularly and putting more effort into my blog posts as I feel like I have really been slacking with blog posts recently.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here's your chance to celebrate with me! This is just a small giveaway with some products that I think are pretty good. I have 3 of the 4 products in the image, and I'm liking them. Hope the lucky winner will like them to.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are the makeup products included in this giveaway:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Makeup Revolution Radiant Lights Palette </b>(includes 3 highlighters inside)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Makeup Revolution Redemption Palette Iconic 3 </b>(lovely pinks and neutral shades in this one)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Sleek Makeup Highlighter Palette Solstice </b>(I'm sure you have seen everyone rave about this product - very high pigment highlighting action with this one!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>And lastly, a Gosh Velvet Touch Lipstick </b>(matte formula in the shade Rose 002) This is a great everyday pink lipstick!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This Giveaway is for the UK only! (sorry for my followers who are not in the UK)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Good afternoon everyone!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I'm so excited that NYX has finally launched in store at my local Boots on Friday, 24th of June. I felt obligated to have a look and bought some goodies. This is one of the items I bought.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The lady that served me at the till said that this product is really good and that many bloggers have been raving about it. I personally have not even heard about this one! But that all made me think I made a good purchase.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The packaging is very light weight and sleek, but I have a feeling that if you were to drop this on the floor, it will definitely break. So my gut instinct tells me that this is not very sturdy. However, it's the quality of the actual product that counts!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">As you can see, the pigmentation is really good. I would say that the first gold shade does not come off as pigmented like the rest of them. But all the other shades have pretty decent pigmentation. So, my overall impression is pretty good. I used one of the shades yesterday and it came out really good one my skin and blends well. I will use it a few more times and also try out the other colours.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The price of this palette is £15.00. I would say that for 7 different highlighters in one palette, this is worth the money. Even if some of the shades you would not necessarily use for highlight, you can use it for eyeshadow instead. Dual purpose!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I will probably buy a lot more NYX products in the near future because it's now so easy to access in my local Boots, which is bad for my bank balance. But I think I'm satisfied for now!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Today's post is a bit overdue, but better late than never is what I always say.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The design of this month's box is different than the usual top lid of the box and the bag that all the products come in. For this month, we have a box which has a pull out little "draw" you can say. It simply slides out, which I think is a great idea! You can definitely use the box again for storing things and it will make it so much more easier to access the items you keep in the box.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">However, I think they're only doing this for this month, so they will probably revert to the previous style of boxes with the bag included.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">My collection of Birchbox bags is getting bigger and I don't really know what to do with them! I use them sometimes for travelling but I don't always go travelling so would love to know what you all use the bags for?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Let's see what we got inside :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Here we have a <b>hairspray from Percy and Reed</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I will definitely get use out of this, there will always be times where you will need some hairspray. So this will be coming in handy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I received a 50ml samples size.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The full sized product costs £12.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Up next we have <b>Whish Coconut Milk CC Body Cream</b>. I received a sample size of 22ml.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">This body cream would be good for the summer time because it's a lotion that has a fast absorbing formula that will leave a glow. It also claims to hydrate and give your skin some nourishment to. Have never tried a product like this before, so I will give it a try when it's a bit more sunnier.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The full size product will cost you £15.50.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Here we have a <b>face cream by Pure and Light Organic</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">This moisturiser contains vitamin A, B, C E and also Omega 3 and 6. Sounds pretty impressive! Will definitely give this a try soon. I received a 15ml sample size.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The full sized product will cost £29.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The next product is an <b>Overnight Tan Sleep Mask by James Reed</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">A very interesting concept where you apply the all natural lotion to your skin. It has a fast absorning formula which has no colour, therefore it claims to not risk staining your pillow. The mask will develop your skin overnight to a golden glow.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I don't usually use any tanning products so I will be giving this to someone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I received a 25ml sample size and the full sized product will cost £15.50.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Last but certainly not least, we have a <b>lip and cheek cream by Jelly Pong Pong</b>. I have tried 2 products from this brand before, and I like them! So this I think I will also really like!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">This product impressed me the most out of all the products I got in this box because this is the only full sized (4g / 0.14oz) product that I received this month and this item costs £17.95!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I only paid £12.95 for the box and 1 product alone is already worth way more!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The colour is really pretty to and I will be using it more for my lips!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I have been waiting awhile for this to finally be released in the UK. The palette just looked so pretty and also looks like a palette that's right up my street! Not that I needed another palette, but I just had to get it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The packaging of this palette is really cute and very attractive to the eye. It's made of a metal material which has a magnetic closure. The design is very nicely made with summery colours incorporated in the gradient of pink and peach tones on the outer packaging. This is my first eyeshadow palette that I have bought from Too Faced and I am not dissappointed.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">All the colours swatch very nice and smooth and are also easy to blend.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The first time I used this palette I first used the peachy shades so I'm looking forward to trying out the browns and creating many other different looks with this palette.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I bought this palette from the <a href="http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_154614110699_-1">Debenhams</a> <a href="http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_154614110699_-1">website</a>. BUT they are sold out at the moment. Hopefully they will come back in stock soon for you all to purchase!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Did any of you manage to buy this palette? What are your thoughts on this product and your favourite shades? :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">First of all, let's take a minute and speak about the packaging. I love how they have designed this months box. I'm liking the funky and colorful design going on. I also feel like this box seems more durable and made of a stronger cardboard that usual. Which is a good thing ofcourse. Another interesting thing is that the top part of the lid is actually a silver coating that you can scratch off and see if you have won a prize!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">A good idea there, I didnt even realise this until I read the leaflet inside the box.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I didn't win anything though :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Anyways, let's get to the goodies...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">A product from The Balm called Stainiac in the shade: Beauty Queen. This product is a raspberry tinted stain that can add a flush of colour to the cheeks and lips. I rarely use products like this for the cheeks, I just prefer the traditional powder brushes. I'm secretly scared of not being able to work with the liquid properly and end of with a red splodge on my cheeks! hehe. But I may give this a go on my lips instead.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hey everyone!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hope you're all enjoying your bank holiday weekend :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">First of all, a big congratulations to Shannon for coming out with this palette in collaboration with BH Cosmetics. I have been watching Shannon on her Youtube for a few years now and I have even had the chance to meet her when she came over to London for the Contiki event and she's really nice and friendly in person. So it was a pleasure getting this palette to support!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This palette consists of 2 sides. One with 9 eyeshadow colours and the other side with 9 lipstick shades.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I love the sizes of the pans. You get such a good amount of product for each shade. It's really nice how both sides have a mirror which is ideal for travelling.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Both the eyeshadows and lipsticks can go well together. The selection of eyeshadows allows you to create a natural eye look and pair it up with a more bolder lip from the lipstick palette. You can also do a nice smokey eye and select one of the more natural lipstick shades to go with it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Both swatches are from left to right of the palettes</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have used the eyeshadow side of the palette twice already and I'm liking it. The colours are pigmented and easy to blend. You have your highlight shade for under the brow bone, you also have a nice shimmery shade for inner corner highlights and a various selection of browns and coppers. It's also good that there is a very dark shade to help in creating a nice bold smokey eye if you wish :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The lipstick shades are really pigmented when swatched on the arm. Some shades do not come out true to the colour that you see on the pan, especially the last two shades. Nevertheless, it's still pretty and wearable colours.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In terms of packaging, I love the pink bubble effect with the silver writing of Shaaanxo and the BH Cosmetics logo. It really gives a cute, yet sophisticated look at the same time. Having a double sided make up product is definitely something unique and not something that you come across that often these days. With that in mind, it does save a lot of space. I mean, imagine how big this product would be if the eyeshadows and lipsticks were on the same side...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The aim of this might have been the fact that it's good for travelling and just saves you the time in thinking of which lipstick shade to use when you can just turn it over and quickly select a shade of lipstick. Although, come to think of it, Shannon LOVES her lipstick, so I don't blame her for wanted a bunch of lovely shades in her collaboration for this palette.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Overall, this is a very good palette. I would definitely be using the eyeshadows more often. Reason being, I usually carry small hand bags, so this palette won't really fit in them so it will be hard for me to top up my lipstick later on throughout the day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I bought this palette for $14.50 from the <a href="http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products/shaaanxo-palette">BH Cosmetics website</a>. This comes up to around £9.90. Which is SUCH a good price and value for money. However, the shipping price is quite steep as it's coming from America. But it had to be done! :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Have you got your hands on this pretty piece yet? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If so, what are your thoughts? Which shades are your favourite?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Since Spring is here, I thought I would share some swatches of these pretty pastel shades that Kiko have released in their Frozen Smoothies Range. I bought all 4 shades in this range as I thought I would get use out of these.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I have swatched all 4 shades on my nails for you to get a good look at them.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All the colours look really cute! You can never go wrong with a nice bright shade for the Spring or even Summer to!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>THOUGHTS:</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What I like about applying these nail polishes, is that they have a flat top style brush. This is my favourite type of brush for nail polishes as it can make your application neater and more controlled.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Another thing I noticed about the packaging of these, is that the white plastic cap of the handle comes up and it reveals the handle of the polish. I have seen this before on other polishes. It's not a major issue, but can be a little annoying when it doesn't both come off at the same time. I had to adjust it a little bit to make both the cap and handle come off at the same time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">According to the description of these polishes, they have micro particales for an avant-garde finish. I definitely do see the micro particles when applying the polishes. They look like little grits of sand but it's in a smooth texture formula so it does not look or feel sandy. As you can see from the photos, they don't look too obvious either from afar.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This might sound weird, but I think the overall concept of the name of the range is quite cute - Frozen Smoothies! They definitely lived up to the name by incorporating the microparticles in the formula.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The colour payoff is really good with these and I am not disappointed with my purchase. The price of these retail at £4.90 each. I bought these from their website <a href="http://www.kikocosmetics.com/en-gb/make-up/hands/nail-polishes/Frozen-Smoothies/p-KM0040100900">HERE</a>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This range is limited edition though, so if you like the look of these and would like to get your hands on this, act fast! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Hope this was helpful to some of you that were considering buying this.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Or if you have already bought them, let me know your thoughts on them to!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hey everyone!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Hope you're all having a good weekend!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today's post will be about the little goodies I got in the Spring Edition of Fragrance Direct's Discovery Box. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">First of all, let me just say that I love receiving these because it just means that I will never run out of perfumes and I get to discover and smell perfumes without going into the store and checking it out there! An extra bonus is that you also receive vouchers within the box to get money off the full sized products. We all know how expensive perfume can be, so this is really helpful. All for just £5 per quarterly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's get to the good stuff...</span></div>
