The Sunshine State

Well it seems I cannot keep myself away from anything glittery (I'm just a sucker for anything shiny) But oh my, these Urban Decay Moondust eyeshadows do not dissapoint. I got two colours, the more toned down colour 'Space Cowboy' and the more funky 'Glitter Rock' alth ough I had to restrain myself from not buying every colour! I really like the packinging of these, they look a little nicer than most single e yeshadows. The eyeshadow itself is very smooth and finely milled which makes the glitter particles s hine through more. Unlike most g litter eyeshadows t hese don 't have chunky bits i n them and th ey glide on . The colour payoff of these is immense! Highly pigmented one swipe will cover the entire eyelid and if you want even more impact you can wet your brush.  

Hello Everyone! Todays post is based on liquid lipsticks...These are having a moment right now! I know there are many different ones avaliable from the Kylie Jenner Lip Kits to the Kat Von D ones ... B ut for us in the UK both these are very difficult to get hold of, however the Stila St ay All Day Liquid Lipsticks on the other hand are a lot easier to get.   I have got 3 of these to swatch for you, all of them are from the 'nude' category but all of them really do differ in shade.  Fir st up is 'Patina' this is the darkest of all the shades I ' m swatching . In colour it comes up as a mid-toned mauve pink. All of the liquid lipsticks have a slight caramel smell to them but this goes pretty fast. I really like Patina on the lips it makes them look fuller and plump. Even though its qui te dark you can wear this shade anytime and I think it would look lovely on all skin tones. N ext up is the shade 'Dolce' if you look closely in the tube

For those of you who don't know I have blonde hair and I have been recently testing out the John Freida Beach Blonde collection. After finishing off both the Sham poo a nd Conditioner here is my honest review...   I found that the cool dip shampoo lathered really well and left a fresh minty smell on my hair and gave me that slightly tingly feeling on my scal p when washing . The smooth seas conditioner also smelt amazing! It nourished my ends and left them feeling super soft.  I would say my hair looks more of a bright, beachy blonde with a natural shine. For when my ends are heading towards the dry side I whack on the kelp help hair mask and this stuff is amazing it leaves my hair very soft and cared for.  For around £5 a bottle this is the general price for a good shampoo and conditioner. Packaging wise I really like the unusual shaped bottles and the mint green colour is very appealing to me and so is the small which is amazing and I could sniff this col

I never really wanted this to be honest, but you ladies know, when there is a sale on, you want it! And we can see how this purchase ended up happening... Anyway, to the actual review! This is actually matte and has no shimmer in it, which I was surprised about but I'm very happy about it as it turns out...It leaves a golden glow behind on the skin, the perfect sunskissed look. It can be very sheer or you can build it up to be more visable but it looks beautiful either way. The texture of this is like a mou sse, almost a 'whipped' texture which is different from anything else I have seen. I think that this wou ld look very good on tanned skin. It is quite dark so if you don't have a tan already then the ti n iest amount goes a long way. I would definit ley say if you are heavy-handed you could end up looking like a wa tsit. So go lightly and building up the layers is key. However when on the skin i t looks very natural and blurs with the skin to create a lovely and
