    Beauty-Steals.co.uk feat. Rimmel & Revlon

    A few weeks ago a little twitter bird told me about Beauty-steals.co.uk – a brand new website dedicated to providing well known quality cosmetics for less dosh. You’ll find brands including Benefit, MAC, Urban Decay, Rimmel, Max Factor, Revlon and Fake Bake on their virtual shelves, all for a fraction of the RRP. Beauty-steals.co.uk also stock a number of discontinued items so chances are you’ll be able to track down a favourite lipstick or eyeshadow that you’ll no longer find in Superdrug or Boots. The Beauty Steals babes sent me a couple of examples of the products they sell, so everyone can get in the loop! Revlon Colorstay 12 Hour…

    Oasap Classic Striped Jacquard Suspender Tights

    The newest addition to my collection of weird and wonderful tights and leggings are these striped suspender style delights from Oasap* I’m a massive fan of faux suspender tights and I’m loving these ones because of their unique chocolatey colour and striped design. A quirky and playful way to spice up a black outfit indeed! You can find these at Oasap here for $15 (US), which equates to under £10 including delivery. Not bad really!

    Maybelline The Rocket Volum Express Mascara

    I don’t know how I managed this but I actually ran out of mascara a few days ago ( nothing but a few scrapes left in my Jemma Kidd mag freebie) so I popped into Boots and picked up Maybelline’s latest offering -The Rocket Volum Express Mascara. While I find the name of this utterly hilarious and slightly irrelevant, there’s nothing funny about the product itself. It’s actually pretty awesome. I found that I only need a couple of strokes of the ‘jet glide brush with flexi-fine bristles’ to achieve long, thick, glossy lashes. Comparable to Diorshow New Look mascara, the smooth formula of the Rocket is awfully good at…

    Cheap Thrills: Vitapointe Leave in Conditioner

    Since I bleached my hair recently, I knew I was going to need some seriously nourishing products to keep my frazzled ends in check. While there are loads of excellent wash out treatments on the market, I was keen to find something heavy duty that I could leave in during the day to keep things silky. And once again Superdrug comes through with the goods! After a bit of googling, I came across Vitapointe – a leave in conditioner that’s used on dry hair to improve manageability and add softness. To use, squeeze the amount you think you need into your palm, rub hands together gently and smooth through lengths and…

    L’Oreal CC Creams!

    2013 is set  to be ‘the year of the CC cream’ so when an email popped into my inbox yesterday from L’Oreal all about their versions of the CC cream I figured it was only fair to share! L’Oreal have released 3 CC creams – Anti-Redness, Anti-Fatigue and Anti-Dullness but they’re only available exclusively online at the moment so hop on over to Boots and pick your favourite for £9.99 or take advantage of the 3 for 2 offer and grab them all. I’m already a major fan of the L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique BB cream – you can read my review on it here. Are you going to jump on the CC…

    Lipstick I Love: Rocking Red by Smooch Cosmetics

    A girl can never have too many red lipsticks and I’m no exception. The latest member of my red lippie clan comes in the shape of this pin-up-perfect red from Smooch Cosmetics. Richly pigmented and vibrant with a glossy finish, *Rocking Red is one of those shades that I think would suit pretty much every skin tone. After a few hours of wear, the lipstick sort of stains the lips, leaving them looking lovely and ‘bitten’ but the gloss factor only sticks around for a short while. The formula is quite ‘wet’ so my only criticism of the lipstick is that it does tend to bleed and feather a little…
