The Review: Urban Decay Naked Lipgloss in Streak

If you’ve been reading my blog for the last couple of months you’ll know I became slightly addicted to the Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in Streak, a beautiful coral that’s not too pink and not too orange. So when the Naked lipglosses were announced I was really keen to get my mitts on the gloss…

The Pre-Birthday Wishlist

Five weeks into my spending ban and a week before my birthday, I guess it’s unsurprising that the notes section of my diary has turned into an overflowing wishlist. Can you believe I haven’t bought any beauty bumf since January?! That, my friends, is growth. Either way, what better way to start a Monday than…

Model's Own Sale Haul

Other than Essie, Model’s Own probably comes in as my favourite nail polish brand. I love that if I’m after a particular shade there’s a 99% chance they’ll have it. The formula is always great and I find the lasting power really good. The only little gripe I have is that occasionally with some of…

What's On My Face – The Spring Edit

The third Spring related post of the week, and we’ve actually had better weather this week, which is a surprise. Maybe we are actually coming out of the depressive stream of wind, rain and freezing cold weather? That would be nice. Speaking of nice, I thought I would be nice to do a What’s On…
