Fragrance Friday

Fragrance Friday

This week's Fragrance Friday is dedicated to Adidas' perfume "fruity rhythm." This fragrance for girls was launched back in 2008. This scent is a great for girls just starting out in the perfume world. It's a girly and fresh fragrance that has a good lasting power.

I would rate this scent as a 4/5, I actually like this scent even though it would be suited towards young girls, it's not a sickly smell and has a very good staying power.

Beauty Thursday

Beauty Thursday

Hey guys, so for this week's Beauty Thursday I figured would do a mini E.L.F haul and review for you guys. I just wanted to say I bought all of these products myself and as per usual this is my own opinion, also this was my first time buying from E.L.F and I honestly loved everything and it was all super cheap.

Stipple Brush

The first item I bought was their stipple brush, I have been using this for about two weeks now and I it has officially replaced my old brush. The brush cost £3.95 and I found that it lived up to the hype of creating a flawless airbrushed look when I applied my foundation. I have washed it twice and haven't notice it starting to shed yet which is a good sign, however my one complaint with the brush is I found I need to use more of my foundation because it's like the brush just absorbs it.

Shimmer Eyeliner Pencil

 The next item I bought was their shimmer eyeliner pencil in "Iconic Ivory" , I have been looking out for a white eyeliner for a while to see if they really do make your eyes look bigger. I applied it along my waterline. The pencil came with a sharpener in the lid which is quite handy. Although I liked it, it's not overly pigmented, I'm not 100% if it's just the the white is harder to see, I might try another colour and see if that one is more pigmented but at least with this shade I'm not overly impressed. The shimmer eyeliner pencil is £1 so I'm willing to try other shades.

Long Wear Lip Liner Pencil

I also purchased the long wear lip liner in the shade "Mauve" which cost £1.95. I lined my lips with this and it went on nice and smooth and lasted a good period, I was even able to eat and checked my lips after and the liner was still there. To check the durability of the liner I just applied that and a bit of gloss over it. My impressions of this liner is it's a great price and lasted well, I will definitely be buying more shades.

Lipstick

I bought two of their lipstick's which were £1.95 each, the orange shade is "captivating" and the pinker shade is "flirtatious." The orange lipstick was stiff to twist but the other one was fine so I think it might just be that one lipstick. I really liked these lipsticks they lasted well and were extremely pigmented while giving off a matte finish. I will definitely be buying more shades.

Studio Makeup Mist and Set

The last item I purchased was the elf Mist and Set make up setting spray. I have been using this every time I have done my makeup since I bought it and have fallen in love with it. For my day time make up the spray has done a great job at lasting all day and I've noticed a huge difference. I have also tried using it a couple times on night's out and I have found it pretty good at keeping my make up in place however I've read a few reviews where some people have had difficulty when it comes to nights out. The make up mist cost £3.95 and I've probably used it 10 times now and haven't even made a dent in the amount of spray left. One thing I do recommend is that when you spray, spray it a bit further away from your face because it comes out quite heavy.

That's it for this week's Beauty Thursday, I hope you enjoyed today's blog and as I already said I purchased all of the items myself and these are all my own individual opinions.

Manicure Monday

Manicure Monday

For this week's Manicure Monday I went for a nude nail with a black ring finger. I used Attitude's "Peaches and Cream" and Essence's Colour and Go "Black is Back."

Method:

1. I began by filing my nails to prevent any hangnails.

2. I then applied a base coat to prevent the polish discolouring my nails.

3. Next I painted all of my nails excluding the two ring fingers with the "Peaches and Cream" from Attitude polish with a first coat.

4. After I painted the first coat, I applied a first coat of "Black is back" to the ring fingers.

5. Once the first coats were dry, I applied a second coat by repeating steps 3&4.

6. After the second coat dried, I applied a top coat to prevent chipping.

Celebrity Style Sunday

Celebrity Style Sunday

This week's Celebrity Style Sunday is dedicated to the insanely beautiful and talented Ashley Tisdale. What I love about Ashley's style is that off of the red carpet, her style is simple and casual like most other people she enjoy's to be comfortable in tracksuit's or jeans.

Ashley was seen out and about in Toluca Lake in November 2014. She's wearing Isabel Marant Bekket sneakers and an Iro Salinas leather jacket. You can get a similar jacket to Ashley's here:

In March 2013 Tisdale attended the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards. She stunned in this Rafael Cennamo Couture Spring 2013 embroidered cocktail dress, Rebecca Minkoff Vincent Minaudiere clutch and Jerome C Rousseau pop sandals.

She looked comfy and casual in an American Apparel faux denim high waisted leggings, an Abercrombie and Fitch Evie sweater, Lauren Moshi dream catcher tee, a Fendi Zucca spy bah and UGG's in the colour chestnut.

One of my favourite looks of Ashley Tisdale is actually from last week, she attended the Nine Zero One salon launch on Melrose Place. Ashley looked incredible in Givenchy Freya sandals and a Monique Lhuillier Paige lace jumpsuit. She accessorized with a Prada envelope clutch. ASOS do a similar one here:

Lastly my all time favourite look from Ashley Tisdale is from the Warner Bros and InStyle Golden Globes after party back in January 2013.

Fragrance Friday

This week's Fragrance Friday is Chance by Chanel. This is the only Chanel perfume with a round bottle instead of the classic rectangle one. It's so simple and elegant, and the fragrance itself gives off a fresh scent with a hint of a sensual spice.

I would rate this scent a 4/5 because I love the bottle and it has a great lasting power. I do really like this scent but I personally found it a bit strong to be an everyday scent but as an occasional perfume I do love it.

Beauty Thursday

Beauty Thursday

So my favourite time of the month is here time to review this month's Glossybox. I have to say they spoiled us in the new year with all five products being full sized.

MeMeMe Eye Line Pencil in Clay

The first item in my Glossybox was a MeMeMe eye liner pencil in "clay" which was a brown colour. It's a great colour to make neutral eyes that bit more intense. It's a perfect creamy consistency and super pigmented. It also smudges easily to create a smokey eye. You can purchase MeMeMe Eyeliner in "Clay" here:

Kueshi Revitalizing Face Toner

Next up in my Glossybox was Kueshi Natural and Pleasant Cosmetics Revitalizing Face Toner. First off can I say how AMAZING this smells, like words can't describe how good it smells. The toner soothes the skin and is gentle enough that my skin wasn't sensitive to it. It removes any last traces of excess makeup or oils and my skin felt nice and hydrated without making my skin feel greasy. You can purchase Kueshi Revitalizing face toner here:

Jelly Pong Pong All Over Glow

Another item in the January Glossybox is the Jelly Pong Pong All Over Glow, it's an illuminating gel. You simply dab the gel along your cheek bones and your brow bones and then blend with a brush.

Nicka K New York ColorLuxe Powder Blush

We also received the Nicka K New York ColorLuxe Powder Blush. The loos blusher promises to give radiant and glowing skin. It came in the shade Romantic which is pink with a hint of red. The applicator dispenses a lot of blusher so I preferred using a brush. The blush is extremely pigmented which is great however I personally prefer less bright shades but if you do like colour you will enjoy this. You can purchase the Nicka K ColorLuxe Powder blush here:

Naked Lips Organic Lip Balm

The last item in the January Glossybox was the Naked Lips Organic Lip Balm. This item is perfect with the Winter cold, I got the super fruits balm which is extremely moisturizing. Another plus of the balm is it smells so go good, my chapped lips have definitely improved and hopefully with continued used they'll be gone in no time.

2. Apply a base coat to prevent staining the nail.

3. Paint on the first layer of nail varnish.

5. After the second layer of polish is dry apply a top coat

This week's Fragrance Friday is Britney Spear's Radiance perfume. It's hard to believe this was Britney's ninth fragrance back in 2010. This perfume is a nice and light scent and has already become one of my favourite Britney fragrances. This is a great sensual long lasting scent which isn't over powering. It's a combination between slightly floral and fruity with a soft musk.

I would rate this scent 5/5 because I LOVE this scent and it has excellent lasting power.

You can purchase Radiance by Britney Spears here:
