Brown eyes with beautyuk

I know I did a post with brown eyes the other day, but I was playing around with my prizes from beautyuk and recreated the look. Considering the Naked palette is around £30 and this palette costs £3.99 it's pretty good!!! The eyeshadows are lovely, extremely pigmented, soft and creamy, and they come in lots of different colours.

Here's the finished result...


Watch my tutorial on this look here:

World biggest strawberry- maybe?

I have to post this up, my Dad bought some strawberries today, and one was the size of an apple! (nearly...)


Look's smaller in my Dad's hand lol!

Old Orleans -gossip & waffles

Last night I went to a restaurant called Old Orleans with a couple of close friends, it does grilled chicken, steaks, spicy fajita kinds of dishes. We had a good gossip and laugh, thought I would put my photo's up. We all had chocolate waffles after, we couldn't resist the temptation!




Yum!

Brown smokey eye


Went for brown smokey eyes today. Put M.A.C. paint pot in painterly on first then used my UD Naked palette. It's the best eyeshadow palette I've ever owned, there's no need for any other eyeshadows really if you have that. 



Yes my eyebrows need plucking, one of the perils of being blonde, you can't see the eyebrow hairs until you take a very close up picture with the flash on!

This picture was taken about 3 hours after applying, I find the UD eyeshadows have really good staying power if you have a primer underneath.

I went to Stratford-Upon-Avon today...birthplace of Shakespeare and all that.

I get really travel sick so even though I got home hours ago I still feel sick. bler.

I also saw 'Dick' (Lol) from 'Dick and Dom in da bungalow.' Any one remember that show? He was in Marks and Spencer's, he kept looking round to make sure people were looking at him.

Star-studded Stratford-Upon-Avon eh?

beautyuk PRIZES!

I was very excited when a huge box arrived for me this morning, I let my Dad open it because he was getting a tad excited too, I don't think he cared that what was inside the box would have no interest to him what so ever, he just wanted to open the big box!

Inside were my prizes from beautyuk and also a big beautyuk bag to put them all in.

This post is quite picture heavy as I think the pictures say it all. I was very pleased because I got everything I would have picked myself, there was absolutely nothing that wasn't to my taste so thank you beautyuk!

They have these competitions every week on Twitter so you all should definitely enter, as you have just as good a chance as I did.

So here's what I got...



Looks like a real eyeshadow palette!

Blushes and bronzers

 Everything :)



 Lip lusts


 Nail polishes x5





 Gold glitter liner, eye pencil and mascara

 Eyeshadow palettes

Excuse my no make-up! 

I also got 3 metallic sparks eye pencils in the shades I was after so that was great, I forgot to take an individual photograph of those. 

Watch out for a full review on my YouTube channel with close ups and swatches, I found the macro button on my camera this morning (after having it for a year... no stars for my technology skills) so I am going to be uploading full 1080p HD videos with lots of close ups!

Lush Valentine's Day Treats

I have a whole basket of Lush products under my bed that I don't use, but seeing as it's Valentine's weekend, I thought I would treat myself to a couple of Lush Valentine's products.


I bought the 'Frog Prince' and the 'Ex-Factor' because they were cute and my favourite!



This is the official picture from the Lush website, the body of the frog is a ballistic and his lips are a bath melt. There is also a paper surprise inside in the form of a prince! You are meant to give your frog a kiss before you put him in the bath! He also turns your bath water green. 



This is also the official picture of the 'Ex Factor' from the Lush website. (Too dark now to take my own pictures) He smells of vanilla, when you throw him in the bath your troubles are meant to fizz away!

I also got this face mask free at the till, it smells of chocolate, it's called 'Cupcake' which is for oily skin, I'll let you know how it goes. 


In the mean time, have a little look at my Lush haul and collection video on YouTube! If you are a YouTube user don't forget to subscribe to me.



Oh and also, welcome to my new followers on here, I have tried to follow you all back but if I haven't leave a comment and I will!

Toodles.
