OOTN

Hello Lovelies,

Just a quick post to show you what I recently wore for a night out with the girls.

It ended up being a total unorganised shambles of a night, but it was really fun none the less. As long as your in good company, a night out will go well, as far as I'm concerned!!

MAC Lipstick Collection

Hello Lovelies,

Today I thought I'd show you all of the MAC lipsticks I own, as it seems to be a highly requested post in the beauty community, I also love to see other peoples collections as its nice to see colours you wouldn't otherwise think of purchasing.

Now my collection only consists of 5 lipsticks, so not a particularly large amount. However, I decided to only do my MAC ones:

1. Because I wear them all on a regular basis so you may find it useful if you like the kind of make-up I like.

2.If I did my whole lipstick collection, it may get a little obnoxious :P (there aren't that many I promise!)

Anyway, without further ado, here they all are lined up looking neat and lovely :)

 L-R: Viva Glam Gaga II, Creme Cup, Modesty, Plumful and Dark Side.

Viva Glam Gaga II is a gorgeous brown toned nude. Great for when you want to play up the eyes or if you're going for a 60's vibe. I love this colour, but it requires very smooth lips and a lip pencil to make it look good.    

Obviously a cult classic. There isn't a person I know in the beauty blogging community that doesn't own this. It's a gorgeous baby pink that is really easy to wear due to the cream sheen finish. A great everyday colour.

 For me, Modesty is one of those 'your lips but better colours'. I use it as an everyday shade for when I just want a more polished finish without any obvious colour on the lips.

 Plumful is by far my favourite shade of MAC Lipstick. It is a gorgeous plummy pink on the lips that just lifts the entire face. It's not too bright for everyday wear due to the Lustre finish, but can be built up for a more dramatic evening look.

              Dark Side is by far my most dramatic lipstick colour. It looks lovely on, when paired with a really simple eye for a night out, or can be used as a subtle stain for more formal events.

Until next time.

NARS Orgasm

Hello Lovelies,

Yesterday, I went out and made a very exciting purchase - my very first Nars item!

That's right, I lost my Nars virginity. Which is fairly ironic as many of the product names are rather rude!

I went into Space NK to have a mosey around and ended up leaving with their Orgasm blush and £21 less well off... It was totally worth it though;)

I'm wearing it today and it is the most gorgeous subtle pinky peach with golden shimmer. It lifts and highlights the face in one.

When I first swatched it in the shop it looked terrifyingly sparkly, then the make up artist applied it to my cheeks with a brush and it looked so much better. Apparently when you use your fingers to apply it, it picks up much more shimmer than a brush. So there you go, you learn a new thing everyday!

Have you purchased any products from Nars?

Which are your favourites?

Much Love

Pastel Delight

Hello Lovelies,

Just a quick post to show you my OOTD from a couple of days ago. I had to take the pictures myself as my boyfriend/friends weren't around to take them. I really loved the outfit though as it was so bright and summery so I thought I'd show you anyway!

Apologies for the blurriness! Better outfit posts will follow.:)

Tread Gently

Hello Lovelies,

You can probably guess what this post is about due to the ever so imaginative title. Yesterday I nipped into MAC and purchased yet more things *Oops!* 

My first purchase was a MSF natural, my first one I might add (Review coming soon,) and the other-more exciting purchase- was a MAC Tendertone from the Cook MAC collection. 

I've never owned a Tendertone before, mainly because the last time they were around in a collection I wasn't aware of the hype around them or what they were all about. I must say though, I'm glad I know now! 

The consistency of this is absolutely gorgeous and only a small amount is required to leave your lips feeling super soft and moisturised. I have the shade Tread Gently and I love that its a kooky yellow colour in the pot, yet it leaves a subtle shimmery gloss on the lips. 

I would definitely recommend these, I'm also considering purchasing one of the other colours. This was my favourite but I also have my eye on Hot n' Saucy as I feel it would leave more of a tint to the lips.

Have you purchased anything from the latest MAC collections?

If not do you have your eye on anything?

Much Love 

Lou

P.S. The giveaway will still be happening (I know its been a while) I'm just really busy with Uni at the moment and I want the prize to be a good one, so I'm collecting things slowly! I'm hoping to be able to run the giveaway in a few weeks. Thank you for your patience! xx
