Make do with what you got!

So, as you all know i have decorated my bedroom, again! (& yes i am aware i still need to upload photo's!) ... My furniture: dressing table & drawers are white. This causes me a problem because everyday i am forever wiping away makeup stains! 

I got pretty fed up of doing this as i felt like i shouldn't even use them even though that is what they are for! So i invested in some material!... Well i say material, its more like a plastic adhesive that simply peels back & sticks on. I brought this just from a local household shop, and it cost me £1.99 for a small roll. I only needed one roll as i was only doing the tops of the drawers and dressing table.

Today i decided to start the task, and it was so easy it took me no longer than 30 minutes! After measuring it all up & cutting the right amounts, there i was sticking on some black paper. It is so smooth to touch, and any makeup will wipe away easily and not stain the paint work. 

& here is the final product! It looks almost brand new as in how it would appear in a shop! 

I'm really impressed with it for £1.99. You can also get it in different colour's and styles! .. I had black to match the rest of my black accessories in my room :)

Have you customized any of your furnishings? xxxx

Sigma Beauty

So, a while ago i entered my very first blog giveaway, & yes i was luck enough to win! I was so excited as one it was my first time of winning, two i had never heard anything about this product that i would be receiving, & 3 from pictures i loved it! The blog giveaway was from * Every Streets A Catwalk * , and it was simply a 'Enter me' type of comp! I am really happy with it so i am thankful for the giveaway :)

I received a Miss Taylor Flat Top Kabuki Brush, and it is the best makeup brush i have ever seen!

It is a small brush for blushers or bronzers, and it is so so soft... It is perfect for the handbag! & also looks fabulous on any dressing table! It comes in black & purple, obviously mine is purple, and it has a metallic look to it which is just so pretty!

A description states: 'Get some Hollywood Glamour! The Hollywood Glamour Retractable Kabuki is the easiest way to apply powder products such as blush, bronzer, foundation, and highlighter on-the-go. Practical and classy, the Hollywood Glamour collection is a must! Featuring the synthetic sigmax fibers for high definition application' and i totally agree!

The company are from the USA ... the price is $25.00 ... But they do ship worldwide!

I am thinking of joining their affiliate program, so i will post a link for this product once it is set up for any of you who are interested in purchasing one of these lovely brushes!

Re. Foundation Blues...

If you have read my recent blogs then you will know all about my new foundation purchase... if not please find it here :)

As promised I said I would let you all know how I got on with this Loreal Infallible make-up.... Two words, love it! It has a perfect coverage and is so soft to the skin. The shade that I brought (140 Golden Beige) totally matched my skin complexion, and it just looks really nice. I would not say that it has a '16 Hour' wear, as I still find after a busy day at work, it does not stay on as good as it is when its first put on... BUT it does not come off altogether like most foundations do!

Overall I would rate this product maybe an 7/10... as it is quite pricey.

The end of an era!

So, last week I graduated, eeeek! 4 Years of hard work finally over! I had such a lovely day... It was better than I anticipated. It was at Trentham Gardens; such a lovely place! Here are a few pictures to share with you all...

My tan is of course 'Lauren's Way' ... Why would it be any other? :) You can buy this tan here.

Barry oh'M'geee...

Whilst i was out shopping in Superdrug the other day, i noticed that Barry M still had the '2 for £4.99' offer on the nail paint's; and once again i was hooked! There are so many colour's to choose from... i really just want them all! I already have a few at home as i am trying to collect them... but i ended up buying another 4 to add to them!

The picture too the left are the ones i brought this time round. From left to right...

304 Mint Green

307 Lemon

317 Blue Moon 

318 Peach Melba

I absolutely adore these colour's! They are so fresh and summery!

& this is what they all look like! (I apologise for the messy painting... I was in a rush to get this all posted for you!)

I love Barry M products for the range of colour's you can get and the long lasting use! & obviously because they don't test on animals!

I am definitely going to be buying more to add to my collection!

What's your favourite Barry M nail paint? xxxxx
