Belated Birthday Blog

Hello lovelies,


I'm still recovering from my Birthday weekend, yes that's right weekend, some things just need dragging out! I had a fabulous weekend away with some of my incredible friends. We stayed at The Bristol Hotel in... well, Bristol (funny that!). We had afternoon tea at the hotel, went shopping, and went out for drinks in the evening. We even booked a lovely make up artist to come to our hotel room and doll us up for the evening (lazy girl's dream). 
All in all it was a success and I got absolutely spoiled rotten by my friends and family with gifts and cards.


So with all that said I thought I'd do a little Instagram show and tell since we all love a good Instagram (Instagram: making life look better since 2011!). I was thinking of reviewing some of my beauty themed gifts since that is what I enjoy doing, plus I got some Real Techniques brushes which I am absolutely in LOVE with. 


I hope you have all had a lovely weekend. :)

Lilac Prism NOTD

Hands up if at the first hint of spring you're slapping on the pastel cream nail polishes. Come on don't be shy, I know I'm not alone on this one, particularly since all my favourite Youtubers have been sporting varying colourful ice cream shades. 


So I did my usual eBay nail polish spree (which I do every time my bottle of Seche Vite top coat gets to that weird stringy gloopy stage) and I was taken in by Prism from the China Glaze Prismatic collection. So much so that I accidentally bought it twice... Oops! It has however, arrived smack bang in the middle of my love affair with Essie's Lilacism so I couldn't commit to only having Prism on my nails. I have gone for a compromise instead and just topped the Lilacism with Prism on my ring fingers and I think I like it (lots of "isms" going on in this post!).

In case you were wondering where I get my nail polishes from on eBay I always always ALWAYS buy from Top Nail Shop. The lady who runs this shop is incredible and I cannot rate her enough, so definitely go and have a little look. 


I hope you all have a wonderful Easter and eat lots of chocolate. :)

April Lust List

Well spring has most definitely sprung which has me in an excellent mood. It also has me in 'Spring Clean' mode so it is most definitely time to clear out my make up collection. This obviously means I will need to then replenish the collection (of course), so I thought I would do a Lust List in honour.

• Revlon Lip Butters (I haven't decided which colours tickle my fancy yet)
• Maybelline 24-hour eye tattoo (I'm thinking a spring/summer bright)
• Givenchy Rouge Interdit Lipstick in Fantasy Pink
• Origins VitaZing SPF15 Moisturiser 

I hope you're all enjoying the sunshine. :)
