What's In My Bag //

LIFESTYLE

I did a post like this a while back (you can read it here) but as I'm such a bag fiend and the contents of my bag is pretty much ever-changing I though it was about time I did another post! I just got this absolutely gorgeee mini back-pack last week from New Look and I've had to condense the contents of my bag slightly to fit things in...

Gift Ideas // Valentines Day

BEAUTY

So can you believe this is my 200th post?! That's mad considering I average one or two posts a week... Anyways, as it's only a week to go until Valentines Day, I thought I would share some beauty related gift ideas with you, so that you can either treat yo-self, orrr drop a load of not so subtle hints to your other half until they get you a little somethinnn.

Yves Saint Laurent Treats // Touche Eclat + Full Metal Eyeshadow

BEAUTY

I'd been saving up my boots points for quite some time when I got chatting with the lady on the YSL counter (she was a very good sales person!). A few swatches later and I found myself walking away with some new items in tow and significantly less boots points than I started out with.

A Few Spring-time Favourites...

BEAUTY

The weather here in the UK has (strangely!) been pretty good lately - consistently warm and sunny - it most definitely feels like spring! With that thought in mind, I thought it was time for me to post something of a spring edit, with some of the products I've been using a lot at this time of year.

Glossy Lips With A Twist // Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Tint-In-Oil Lip Tint

BEAUTY

I love a new make-up product which is unlike anything I already own, and this my friends is most definitely that! The YSL Volupte Tint-In-Oil Lip Tint comes in lipgloss style packaging (which is beautiful may I add), however this is no mere lipgloss. It's a tint of colour which takes a little while to develop on the lips, encased in the most amazing lip oil, which leaves the lips looking soo glossy and feeling super moisturised. It's not sticky in the slightest, which is my pet hate with some lip glosses, and after the shine has gone, the lips remain tinted with colour for a good long while.

Multi-purpose // YSL Kiss & Blush

BEAUTY

It's currently feeling a little bit cold and dismal here in the UK, and with the threat of snow imminent, I felt I needed a little bit of a pick me up to help remind me that spring isn't too far away. This comes in the form of the Yves Saint Laurent kiss and blush in the shade Pink Hedoniste (8), a perfect pop of pink to get out of the winter blues.

Rose Gold Glow // Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat Or Rose

BEAUTY

This pretty highlighter from Yves Saint Laurent is part of their new Rose Glow Collection, which is currently exclusive to Boots. I've always wanted to try out the Touche Eclat, but always found it hard to justify the price tag. This being said, bringing out a rose gold limited edition is an easy way to get me to part with my money…
