ooh, you're making me blush..

In the hope that I receive lots of shiny money at Christmas this year I have already begun to plan what I'm going to buy :). Maybe it's a bit hopeful but never mind ;).

I am lusting after a x6 pro blush palette from MAC and have been spending my spare time perusing swatches online and choosing the six shades that I'm going to fill the palette with :).

and here they are:

Frankly Scarlet - Matte

A goooorge bright rosy red and it's matte which i lurr-uh-veee

Coygirl - Sheertone

A really caaute light rose - perfect for pretending to be barbie.

Sunbasque - Sheertone Shimmer

A gorgeous shimmery plum with a pearly sheen.

Pinch Me - Sheertone

A dirty, dusky coral with a lovely rosy background tone.

Well Dressed - Satin

A much talked about pretty pink - hopefully it'll live up to expectations.

Pink Swoon - Sheertone

A really pretty pure baby pink.

So that's the six gorgeous shades - what do you think of my choices?

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend :)

much love from

A Grand Day Out :)

Hey dolls!

I've been a bit absent from blogger this week but I bought some lovely things today and I thought I'd give you a looksee :)

I went into town with some lovely friends and had a real giggle :) and the day was especially lovely because I visited a certain favourite shop: MAC!

I have been wanting to get a lot of things from there but I thought a couple of things would keep me ticking over for a little while. So after browsing the new Venomous Villains range (which is so so cool) I went over to the old faves.

So, here's what I splurged for...

Oh, and THE best thing happened today :D

I was chillin' in the street with my lovely girlies listening to some guys busking when two pretty funky looking peeps rode past on bikes with bags filled with glasses! They were promoting the new Urban Outfitters store that is opening in Bath and were giving away the glasses for...FREE! So, I dug around in the bag and pulled out the pair covered in the most flowers, teehe...

It was an offer I just simply couldn't refuse - so that's the glasses in the picture above ♥ pretty bloomin' funky don't ya think?

I have wanted this for such a long time! I love a good nude lip :) so this is perfect.

Love love love.

M.A.C. cremesheen lipstick in Myth/£12.50

I have a very very very ridiculous amount of blushes and I would probably say that I am even more obsessed with them than I am with lipsticks. And that's really saying something...

I haven't had a MAC blush before and I thought it would be a good idea to add one to my collection and since ninety five percent of my blushes are powder, I went for a cream one.

This a lovely rosy pink with a mauve tone to it :) It's a colour that I don't really have and I can't wait to start using it. It's crazy how pigmented this is, so worth the hefty pricetag methinks.

M.A.C. cream blush in Brit Wit/£16.50

Swatches of the lipstick and blush :)

I don't think it's actually humanely possible for me to go out shopping and not buy a Barry M nail paint - I am obsessed with them! And I don't think I'll rest until I have the whole collection...

So today I got the lovely navy one, with really pretty baby blue reflexes in it. I think this will be a definite staple for A/W.

Barry M nail paint in Navy/£2.95/Boots

So, that's my little haul for now :)

I hope you liked and I would love some comments :)

Also, I would love to hear some tips for starting a MAC collection and if you think there are any MAC must haves that I should purchase?

Hope you're having a lovely weekend ♥

lots of love

products I am luvin' right now

Hey hey :)

So, I've got a bit out of it with the whole blogging thing lately so I thought I would do this quick post of beauty related items that I have enjoyed being the owner of over the last couple of weeks.

The first is a blush from Sleek. I hadn't had anything from this brand before and had heard many many ravilicious things about it so I thought I would get something and thought a blush would be a good idea.

Turns out the actual blush I bought was not the tester I used in the shop. I was expecting a very light peachy pink I got a bright fuchsia. I was not happy.

But then I actually used it and realised I lurvee it! So all's well that ends well.

Got this for £3.99 in Superdrug.

And there's moi peeping into the photo :) teehe.

The second favourite is MAC's Viva Glam Gaga lipstick which was £12.50, as everyone knows.

I was in love with this, then I hated it but now I love it again. The colour is amaaazing and it's so creamy and lasts a long time :)

I wore it everyday on holiday, partly because I forgot other lipsticks :(, but also because I lurvee it hehe. So yeah, BUY IT.

The next thing is a skincare product and it's The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector. I was in the shop with a friend and the shop assistant came and gave us each a £3 off voucher and a free Shea Butter sample :). And being the bargain seeker I am, I tried to look for a product closest to £3 so that I had to pay barely anything.

And that's what I did :) This was five pounds, but I got it for only two :D.

It smells kinda wierd, but nice wierd. And is really moisturising and brill for dry skin.

LOVE.

So, there's my little post :)

I should be getting back into the swing of blogging soon but hopefully this will keep it ticking over for now :)

Comment and follow si vous plait.

love from daisy dolly xoxo

I spend too much money...HAUL

Hey everybody! ♥

So I went shopping, again... with my lovely friend hebeflora and I got some reeeally nice stuff :)

So I really hope you enjoy this post and don't forget to comment and follow!

everything :)

No.7 Shine Free Primer - 'Stops shine for a matte finish'

So, I had another £5 off voucher and have been lusting after a primer for ages. I wanted a moisturising one rather than a gel and this one is so smooth and makes my skin so so soft. And seems to really mattify. I really like this. It usually retails at £10.75, but I paid £5.75 - yay :D.

this primer is so silky and great to apply. I recommend, a lot.

The next two products are my favourites :)

If you have read a recent post of mine called 'currently lusting after' then you would know that I really wanted this cream blush from MeMeMe. So I was completely set on getting that one, but when I found it, it was really small, I mean literally tiny and I just kinda thought, OH. So I decided that it wasn't for me :( But then Hebe said I should look at the Topshop cream blushes and I thought, why not. So I did. And I loved them! This one is called 'Flush' and is a really lovely bright pink and the formula seemed really nice and creamy. Also, I adore the packaging, I think it's so unique and quirky. The cream blush was £6 - one of the more reasonably priced items from Topshop's makeup range.

I also got, to go with the blusher, this amazing brush from the QVS line at Superdrug. I thought it would be great for cream products and I can't wait to use the two together. This brush is so so soft, ah it's incredible! And that was £6.99 :)

Love love loveeee.

I also got this eye pencil from H&M, I've always been slightly sceptical about their make up but I thought you couldn't really go wrong with one of these. And...I was right! I actually really like this product, it's quite creamy and applies really nicely. It's a really pretty shimmery browny-grey with lilac undertones and would look lovely in the evening for when I go on holiday. And it was only £1.99 - what's not to like? ;)

a swatch of the eye pencil - sorry for the bad quality photo.

The last thing on my haul is this lipstick. It's from Miss Sporty, a brand I don't normally buy from and it quite an unusual colour - purple. The formulation is very sheer which I actually really like and it comes out quite pinky-purple and I think it looks really funky. And it was only £2.49.

A swatch of the lippie. Sorry again for the bad quality photo.

So, that's my haul finished! What do you think of my new things? :)

Have any of you bought these things recently?

Or anything to recommend?

Hope you enjoying the rain, NOT :(

lots of blog lurve.

things I'm currently lusting after...

I'm always always always lusting after many things, here are the top five at the moment...

MeMeMe Cheek-E Blusher in Peach-E, £4.99

I have heard goooood things about this cream blush and it looks like a lovely summery peachy pink for my holiday in Mallorca in a few days time, just gotta go out and buy it first...

You Rebel Lite tinted moisturiser - Benefit, £21.50.

I had this applied during a make over and instantly fell in love.

Sadly I'm not sure I can splash out for it. Christmas methinks?

models own powder blush in warm glow - Boots, £5.

Do you really need another peach coloured blusher? I hear you say.

Well the answer is: Don't be silly, of course! ;)

Gosh lipstick in Darling - Boots, £6.

love, love, love it ♥ nuff said.

Long, voluminous hair, priceless.

I have, since I can remember, wanted long hair. But being the idiot I am, I keep going to the hairdressers and getting it cut short, something just takes over me when I walk in a salon. But I am determined to grow mine now. And I will have hair like Cheryl Cole by the end of 2011. I will.

Hope you enjoyed this post :)

lots and lots of blog lurvee xoxo

haul: ELF

As promised here is my haul from the website eyeslipsface.com. I ordered my stuff yesterday and was expecting the things to come much later this week, but they arrived the next day! Which has made me love ELF even more :)

Hope you enjoy this post!

here they are! :)

Mineral foundation in 'light (for light skin and golden undertones)' - £3.50

I've never used or had a powder foundation before, usually sticking to liquid ones, dream matte mousse or no foundation at all! But I really like the lightness and sheer coverage of this foundation :) It's a good colour for my skin tone and also claims to work with your natural skin pH balance and match your skin - which is pretty funky :) The only thing I would say is I find it a but tricky to shake out of the pot, so not great packaging. But overall a nice (cheap) product ;)

Complexion perfection - £3.50

This product is amazing! Probably my favourite of the lot :)

The texture is weightless and makes your skin look so light and flawless and gives a nice healthy and beautiful glow :) The balance of minerals claim to matte skin, neutralise redness and brighten - and this product definitely does this :D I have tried lots of pressed powders before and this is the best! I would recommend a lot (especially at that price!). A must buy.

Studio blush in 'tickled pink' - £3.50

I really like this blush. I have heard a lot of good things about the ELF blushes and I wasn't disappointed :) The colour is gorgeous and has a lovely light shimmer and it is really pigmented and blends really evenly on the skin :) the only thing I would say is it's tiny! haha

E.L.F tools, eye widener -£1.50

This products claims to create a wider and bigger looking eye when applied to the waterline. Considering this product is very cheap I wasn't expecting that much and I wasn't bowled over with it's quality - the white colour is quite faint on the waterline however it looks better around the inside of the eye and as a highlighter on the brow bone :) It does come with a built in sharpener though! Every cloud has a silver lining :)

Total face brush - £1.50

I really wanted the powder brush from the studio line but it was 'coming soon' so I settled for the regular brush. It's not the softest brush I've ever used but it does give even coverage and works well with the foundation :) and you can't really go wrong with £1.50!

hope you enjoyed this post ;D

lotsa love xoxo
