Benefit Most Glamorous Nudes Ever Kit



So back in the Easter holidays I picked up this little eye kit from Benefit. I’d had my eyes on this for a while and out of the three kits this is the one that was best suited for me. In the classic cute packaging that we expect from Benefit inside are two of their creaseless cream shadows and four powder shadows (the same size as the mac refill pans). It also comes with two little cards with tips and tricks of how to use these shadows from Day to Night, which is great for those who are new to the whole eyeshadow thing!




Now down to the actual products, the two creaseless cream shadows in this kit are called my two cents and birthday suit. My two cents is a copper colour with a shimmery gold running through it, it’s a really pretty colour just to swipe all over the lid. Birthday suit is a light taupe chrome colour, which is another one that’s great to put all over the lid with a dark shadow blended through the crease. Both of these cream shadows have shimmer running through them, so if that’s not your thing you may not like these that much. I really like these cream shadows they last the whole day on me and true to the name they don’t crease, great! They have a great creamy formula and they are so easy to apply on the lids, I just use my fingers to swipe the colour on. They look quite small however you get 3.2g of product which is quite a lot and it gives you the chance to try them out.


 With this kit is also four powder eyeshadows, you have call my bluff which is a pale cream shell colour perfect for applying all over the lid or to use as a highlight for the brow-bone. Next is kiss me, i’m tipsy a dark brown this is great to throw in the crease. It’s complicated is a golden peachy pink colour, now if I’m honest I didn't think I’d like this colour but it’s beautiful paired with kiss me, i’m tipsy in the crease. The last shadow, gilt-y pleasure is a golden shade and this too is gorgeous just on its own. All of these shadows are pigmented and apply well and blend easily. Plus they have really cute names!



Now all of these shadows including the cream ones are part of the permanent line at Benefit to purchase separately. This kit retails at £23.50 and you can get this on most Benefit counters, it’s great to test out their eyeshadow products and see if it’s worth buying them later on. Overall I love this kit and I’m glad I purchased it. Have you tried the Benefit shadows? What do you think of them, let me know. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! x

Barry M Matte Nail Paint Review

The Barry M matte nail paints were something that I featured on my Weekend Want List here, and I did get around to buying the colour that I wanted which was Vanilla. My sister also picked up espresso from the matte range too which is just a black colour. The polish however isn’t really a vanilla shade it’s sort of this light greige neutral colour with a pink/purple undertones to it. Personally I think this looks flattering on the nails and the formula of these are great. Your nails dry quick and you get that instant matte effect, obviously there is no need to apply a top coat as you want the matte nail look so a couple of coats of this and you are good to go. This is a nail colour that goes with everything and the only downside to this is that it chipped on me around day 2, however my sister managed to wear hers for a whole week without any chips?! Overall if you want the matte look instantly and fancy trying these they have a few other shades in the collection a few neutrals a red and the black one equalling a total of five in the Barry M matte range. Barry M is always on offer and even when it isn't its pretty inexpensive!






Do you like the matte nail trend; have you tried any of these? Let me know and I hope you all have a lovely week! X

Summer Shoes...

The weather has been brightening up here in England and that of course means I can finally start buying and wearing sandals and flats again! It’s not that I don’t wear flats in the winter it’s just I tend to opt for wearing cute ankle boots that’s all plus they keep your feet warmer! So a few weeks ago I went out and purchased more summer appropriate shoes, I had been eyeing up a pair of sandals on the New Look website and when I saw them in store I had to have them!



First we have this pair of flats which my dad actually found for me (my dad has exceptionally good fashion sense and actually finds some really nice things!). They have black suede material and they have this cute checked square design on the front of the toe. I really like these and they are surprisingly comfortable. Both appropriate for school and going out I can tell I’m going to get a lot of wear out of them!



The next pair of shoes are these sandals very simple in design but look so chic, I love them! The brown and coral are really nice colours paired together and are great for the summer! I like the slight wedge on them as well as they give me a little bit of height, now I did try these on in store as they only have the strap along the front and nobody wants the dreaded snaggle toe! If you don’t know what that is just search it up on Google (Warning it is disgusting!). Thankfully no snaggle toe occurs in these shoes for me, phew! They look really sleek on and I think I’ll be wearing these and awful lot this summer!


So that’s it just a couple of pairs of new shoes in my collection perfect for the summer months, have you bought any summer shoes recently? Hope you enjoyed this and I hope you have a lovely weekend! x

Necklace upon Necklace...


So I thought I would do a little post about some of my favourite necklaces in my collection. Now I tend to opt for buying necklaces over any other type of jewellery and this I feel is because a necklace can really change an outfit and complete it and a lot of these necklaces I have worn countless times. Each one has a little story attached to it, and I will list where I got them from but I am afraid I’m not sure you can get any of these particular ones anymore…sorry! So let’s get onto the necklaces…


1.       Accessorize Heart Necklace

This little necklace is one of the more recent editions to the collection and was given to me by my friend Rachael for Christmas, thanks Rach! It’s silver, cute and dainty and it’s nice that it has a longer chain as well. This is a necklace I reach for when I’m not sure what one I want as it usually goes with everything!

2.       Republic Robot Necklace

Now I bought this around the time before Republic shut down, when I saw this I couldn’t resist it, it was so cute and it’s a little robot with glasses, a nerdy robot! I actually got this for a pound and I was shocked when I got up to the till to pay for it none the less it was a great find!

3.       Topshop Camera Necklace

This I found a few years ago in the summer in the Topshop jewellery sale and I fell in love with it, it’s orange not something I would usually go for and it is quite a chunky necklace. I knew I had to have it though when I saw this and plus I think I got it for like £3! I don’t wear it that often and I really should!

4.       Topshop Owl Necklace

Another Topshop necklace and this time it’s an owl, I was obsessed with owls a few years back and I really don’t know why, I think they were the cool ‘it’ animal at the time or something like that anyway?! So I remember I had spotted this in a magazine and once I saw it, I wanted it, I remember looking frantically for it at the jewellery section, and then I saw it tucked away hidden at the back it was also the last one there, it was meant to be! I have worn this necklace an awful lot and it will continue to be worn a lot as it’s so cute!

5.       Hilary Duff Collection Heart Necklace

I’m sure we all remember Hilary Duff, you know Lizzie McGuire, throwback! Well this was bought years ago and I mean years ago, I remember Hilary Duff brought out a collection with Claire’s Accessories and it was a range of jewellery and my friend happened to own some of it, we were both massive Hilary Duff fans haha! Once I saw she had some of this jewellery, I was like Dad I need some of it, and my Dad surprised me with this necklace along with another one and some heart earrings from the collection, I was super excited. I have loved this necklace and it has had its fair share of being worn, it’s really simple and is a necklace I reach for a lot.

6.       Republic Lollipop Necklace

It’s another Republic necklace and this I think I bought in the summer of 2012 me and my sister were looking through the jewellery section and I remember spotting this, 1. It has a pink lollipop on it cute, 2.perfect summer necklace and 3. It was only like £4. Also by now you must sense a theme with my necklaces I think they are all cute and how could I not buy this one?!


1.       Claire’s Accessories Star Necklace

My sister actually bought me this necklace and I remember she told me to go away whilst she found me a Christmas present and this is what I got. Its silver has tones of stars clustered along it and it has a smaller chain attached with another star, I love stars and I love necklaces, this is so great for pairing with a plain coloured top as it adds a lot of detail to it. Thank you to my sister for buying this for me!

2.       Accessorize Heart Necklace

I bought this necklace before Christmas in 2012, I had intended to give it to a friend for Christmas although I bought her something else from accessorize so I decided to keep it for myself, haha. I remember it was £5 or something like that because the shop had some sort of sale on and I thought this would be a really nice necklace to pair with loads of outfits. I wear this one quite a lot to school and it’s an easy necklace to throw on if I’m in a rush.

3.       Republic Moustache Necklace

Yes, it’s a moustache necklace…how freaking cute is it?! This I bought at Christmas time before the store shut down and at the time me and my sister loved anything with moustaches on it, didn’t everyone at some point? Anyway she had picked up a moustache necklace that was plain gold then I spotted this one that was sparkly! I had to have it and I have worn this, ridiculous amounts of times and I will continue to wear it because look at it, it’s cute!

4.       Republic Triangle Necklace

The last and final one and again it’s from Republic, I guess I must have liked a lot of their jewellery, necklaces in particular! Anyway I bought this one along with my moustache one at the time as statement necklaces had only really just become on trend and I wasn’t brave enough for those at the time so I went with this one. I’m glad I picked this one up as I love it, I’ve worn it loads and it’s kind of a classic piece and can be worn with pretty much anything really!



So that’s it all the necklaces, well not all of them just my favourite ones that I wear all the time. I’m sorry again that you can’t get your hands on any of these! What are some of your favourite necklaces or pieces of jewellery in your collections? Let me know in a comment below! Hope you enjoyed reading this and I hope you have a lovely week! x

It's A Haul...

So since it's the Easter Holidays here in England I have done some shopping, it's to be expected when you have two weeks off, haha! My first trip was on Tuesday where I was off to watch the new Captain America film, which side note was actually freaking amazing, definitely go and see it! So I actually made some sneaky Benefit purchases that day that I had been eyeing up for a while, the They're Real mascara which was a repurchase and the World Famous Neutrals eye kit in Glamorous neutrals, which is so pretty! I also bought the Clean and Clear moisturizer whilst there which was featured on my April Beauty wish list here, along with the Benefit eyeshadow kit! Then I went out on Good Friday for a family meal in Milton Keynes at Red Hot, so good! Then of course we went shopping afterwards, once there I took full advantage of the Boots 3 for 2 offer (yay!) and picked up the Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick (love the name!)  in Nudist and a No 7 eyeshadow stick in the colour Cool Mink and then my sister finished off the offer and bought a miss sporty nail polish in a pretty shimmery navy blue colour! My lovely Gran bought us these, so thanks a lot Gran! I'm excited to try and test out all these products and I'm sure I'll let you know how I get on with them! What have you bought recently? Let me know! Hope you all have a lovely Easter Weekend! x
