FOTD :) plus some little lovies x

Yep a face of the day...enjoy :)

On my face are the usual suspects that i wear for all my looks with the addition of e.l.f persimmon shimmer stick on brows and nose!

Eyes:

*Mac naked lunch all over lid

*Nars mykonos applied with pinkie to outer half

*E.L.F persimmon stick on inner c's

*Clarins chocolate brown liquid liner pen...such an easy way to apply liquid btw!!

*Mac zoom lash...sorry for the clumps i reapplied mascara on top of todays old crusty stuff yummy!

On my lippies im wearing Macs creme d'nude....such an easy look but i had to show how lush NARS mykonos is...i heart it muchly!!

Also today i picked up some uber cute mini dry batiste shampoos....i have the huuuge size but these are fabby for the handbag..go get um!!

And i cannot stop listening to V V Browns 'shark in the water' song....does anyone else love love this tune?? xx

New hair colour

I think i have finally found my fave hair colour ever.....i use prof colours on my hair as i think they give off more shine and are better quality! I have searched for a dark brown with gold but no red for sooooooooooooooooooo long now and i think majjirel 4.3 may be it..yes its very dark but i loooove it..what do you think? xxx

Body shop review part 1....

Ok so i was very lucky to be sent some goodies to test out from the body shop! I have a few things to review so this is part one...exfoliators!!

I should start by saying my skin is combination..i get an oily t zone and normal cheeks!

I was sent 2...vitamin c micro refiner and aloe gentle exfoliator...after using them both for a 2 week period each here's what i think....

Vitamin c micro refiner:

*RRP: £12.20 for 75ml

*Contains antioxidant vitamin c, Shea butter and silica crystals

I love the citrus scent of this product..i always find that if a product smells lush I'm more likely to use it on a regular basis! However i imagined that the small silica crystals would be gentle..i was wrong..i find this exfoliator too harsh for my skin! I found i didn't want to rub much at all as it was very powerful! The citrus vitamin c did clear up all of my oil though and my skin felt and looked very matte and refined! All in all i would say sensitive skins stay away...id recommend this to someone with crazy dry skin that can take the strength of this exfoliator! Also i think this product is a little pricey for an exfoliator!

Aloe gentle exfoliator:

*RRP £7.30 for 75ml

*Contains aloe, jojoba beads and glycerin for hydration...yes please :)

I prefer this exfoliator hands down..gentle yet effective!! Ok so it doesn't smell as nice but that's due to it being a sensitive product im guessing! Im crazy on aloe..i really do believe it is the best ingredient for healing and boosting skins hydration levels...its the only moisturiser i take on holiday as i think its the kindest thing to use on sensitive skin! Aloe is normally expensive so i am pleased with the price of this product..very reasonable! I definitely will be buying this as it did its job and i feel it is kind to my skin :)

*In truth i have size 7ish feet but i convince myself into buying size 6s and wonder why im crippled lol! why do we do this?

*Im still scared of the dark..yes laugh your socks off hehe!

So most ppl have already done this so no need for tags lol!

Tear jerkers tag!

Ok so despite being stupidly girly...im actually a tough cookie..i really struggled to think of five films that have brought a tear to my eye...so if these suckers make me cry..they must be good lol!

The notebook: This is by far my favorite film...it was the first film that got me crying in a cinema..beautiful story and so, so romantic...why cant men in this lifetime be like Noah?? x

My sisters keeper: Oh my god the first film where i cried the whole way through and not just at the ending..so, so sad. They show you far more than i ever thought they would...left me feeling really humble...even men were crying to this one..please go and see it..i think the girls deserve an Oscar they were so likable and believable!

The green mile: Hmm I've just realised that the top 3 are all books too...interesting! Yep this film is on most peoples list..how could they kill john coffee..oh and little Mr jingles..bless xx

Watership down: Told you i don't cry much at films so now I'm really scraping the barrel and going back to my childhood.....i still cant listen to the song "bright eyes" without getting teary eyed...i think my love of animals came into this one ha..i still cry if anyone hits a bunny in a car..sad lol!

The pursuit of happiness: I watched this on a plane to America and me and my friend were in floods..theres something about men crying that sets even me off..fab film!
