My Current Top 3 Makeup Favourites

Urban Decay Original Primer Potion-
Although this is a sample which I got when I ordered a lipstick, this has lasted me AGES! A little goes a long way with this primer. It keeps my eye makeup in place all day without creasing or getting oily. It's so good that if I accidentally get some mascara on my eyelid, it's bloody hard work to clean it up. I usually wait for the mascara to dry and then go in with a cotton bud. It normally flakes off easily but since using this primer, it's a nightmare. Try to avoid any mascara mess! I'm super happy with this, I'll definitely purchase the full sized one once I've run out.

Maybelline Master Shape Brow Pencil-

This is very new to my makeup bag and I've become very fond of it. It's very pigmented and the colour and shape lasts all day. It's a waxy formula and the perfect colour. I'm normally used to just a pencil but the wax formula actually shape the hairs into place and I find it a lot easier and quicker. It's also great for the natural brow look. The only down side to this is that the pencil becomes blunt very quickly so it's hard to create those neat lines but it's not a problem, just sharpen it. I can see me going through this fairly quickly but for £2.99, you can't go wrong.

Maybelline Lash Sensational-

I have been using this mascara for a while and it's still one of my favourite makeup items. I don't think anything will replace my forever loved lash sensational for a long time. I love the weightless feel of the mascara on my lashes. It definitely gives my lashes volume and a nice curve. The bristles also space out the lashes evenly which I love!

Lush Wishlist Under £40

I'm not a massive fan of Lush like the majority of people but I do like their products. I know that buying quite a few things from Lush ends up being expensive. So, I've put together a wishlist of products that I've had my eye on for a while which costs less than £40. Suffering with dry lips, I have been wanting a decent lip scrub that works. After reading the reviews online, I decided that I most definitely have to make a trip to Lush to purchase this. And, it's bubblegum flavoured! The question is, will I actually treat my lips or end up eating it? Hah. £5.50

I tried a bath oil for the first time a few weeks ago and I loved it. I guessed that Lush would sell bath oils for a reasonable price and then I found this, the razzle dazzle. I love the name, I love the glitter and it just looks so relaxing and fun at the same time. Is that even possible? £2.00

I've tried a few bath bombs from Lush before and I am honestly entertained when they do their thing after you plonk it in the bath. Dragons egg looks really pretty and by how the scent is described (jasmine and citrus), I think I would absolutely love it. £3.75

Another bath bomb on my list is the intergalactic, I have heard so many people rave about this one. But after watching videos of it, I now know why. My sister has this written on her birthday list. Mind if I borrow a bit? £4.25

After owning the comforter bubble bar, I really wanted to give the shower gel a go. The bar smells absolutely gorgeous so I assume that they smell the same. The shower gel also looks shimmery which is good, shimmer and glitter is my thing. I'm actually running out of shower gel so it may be time to stock up. £9.95 per 250g

After trying out the Marilyn hair treatment, I have been wanting to try out a similar but different one. I came across h'suan wen hua, which I can't pronounce by the way. It's full of nourishing ingredients to improve your hairs condition. Being bleach blonde and with the weather changes, my hair can go quite dry. So, this would be perfect right now. £9.75 per 225g

8 Things That Only People With Thick Hair Will Understand

Even though I love my long thick hair, coping with it is sometimes really aggravating. So, I've put this list together of things that all thick-haired people can relate too. Hopefully I'm not alone!

1. Washing, drying and styling your hair is always such a chore.

2. You need ultra stretchy hair bands so you can wrap them around at least three times to be sure your pony's secure enough.

3. After spending a lifetime of curling your hair, no matter how many cans of hairspray you go through, the curls end up dropping after ten minutes anyway.

4. You break so many hair bands.

5. When going to the salon to have your hair coloured, it costs you a bomb because of all the product they use up and you're sitting in the chair ALL DAY.

6. There's just no point in naturally drying your hair. It will never dry and your hair will end up looking like a lions mane.

7. It takes you forever to detangle your hair. No amount of leave-in conditioner will help you. 

8. The hot weather and your gorgeous hair decides to work together to make it 10x harder for you to cope. Actually, forget 10.. make it 100x harder. Your friends always wonder why you're so hot and sweaty compared to them.

Do you struggle with any of these problems?

Is This Lip Plumper Worth The Spend?

I'm quite happy with my lips as they are, but I really wanted to try this out to see what it was all about. I love the pink and black tube design and it's a much bigger tube than I expected. The applicator is literally like one of those lipglosses in the squeezy tube you owned when you were 7.

Soap & Glory Pillow Plump XXL says:
Our pillow plump formula has been injected with 3XL-peptide plump complex, components of which have been shown in in-vitro tests to help:

-increase levels of hyaluronic acid
-boost fat cells
-give an 'autoplump' built-in cushioning effect

It doesn't smell very nice at all. The product definitely gives your lips a tingling/buzz feeling which is how you know it's working. Pillow Plump clearly plumped my lips but as it was XXL, I was expecting to see much more of a difference. I have the clear gloss 'Clearvoyant,' which is a lovely shiny clear colour. The gloss is very thick and sticky which makes it hard to get an even coverage. This would probably be more of a problem if you had a coloured gloss as it would be more noticeable.

I personally think that this is very expensive for what it does and I wouldn't purchase another one. Have you tried Pillow Plump? How did it work for you?
