All About Me.

All About Me was my third lipstick from Topshop. I'd lusted over it for a while but I wanted Brighton Rock more and then I wanted to buy a few nudes and I loved the look of Nevada *wish I'd bought this one instead*...

It is definitely the most vivid and yet the deepest lipstick I've come across after MAC's Girl About Town. It's a blue toned pink that makes your teeth glow white.

I'm very pale so it stands out like crazy. I think it'd suit all skin types as long as you dare to wear it!

The Topshop lipsticks are amazing to me as they're quite matte which I love. Their texture is lush and they're quite thick so one swipe would do!

It does stain a little so you have to scrub a little harder to get it off your lips but it's worth it if it lasts all day, right?

I think so.

9/10 for me! 

It's scored down because it does cling a little to dry bits so I have to keep on top form with moisturising my lips!

My Travel Make Up!

Whenever I travel or just stay at my boyfriend's place... I just want to take all of my make up but it's just not possible. I did take my huge make up case to Mikey's once but it was sooo heavy and inconvenient.

So I went to Primark for the first time in April... yes, it really was the first time and I saw this really cute & huge polka dot cosmetic case and I knew I had to have it. It's not too big that it doesn't fit into my bags but I do carry huge bags...

 This is everything I carry... I don't usually carry Soap & Glory's Hand Food because I don't like it but I want to use it up!

This is all of my every day make up at the moment. My foundation will change from time to time and I'm finishing Bourjois' concealer and then going back to Collection 2000's as it so much better.

What do you carry in your travel make up bags? 

Link me or tell me!

Nevada's not so hot.

This lipstick... not much to say! I love the texture, I love the packaging, I love the colour... just not on me!

It's a buy that will probably be used once or twice a year... under gloss!

It makes me feel so blahhhh and boring. I hate it!

I have one other nude that I want to review but after that I give up! I can't be bothered wasting the money and then being so disappointed with something!

If you absolutely love nude colours and can pull them off then I'd say get this because it's £8.00 and the texture is amazing. It's a matte and definitely has some staying power. It does cling to dry bits on your lips though so moisturise, moisturise, moisturise!

Brighton Rocks!

I'm so, so, so, so happy that Topshop decided to do a beauty range because I am in love with their lipsticks and nail varnishes. Brighton Rock was my first lipstick and I use it at least once a week! It isn't one for the faint-hearted as it is very bright but I LOVE my bright lipsticks... if you couldn't tell already!

It's retailing at £8.00 but I think that's a bargain as I do wear it all the time!

It's a matte consistency... all of their lipsticks I've bought are either matte or semi-matte.

They do have a habit of sticking to dry bits but as long as long as you're all moisturised... you're good to go!

It doesn't glide on super soft and it isn't moisturising but if you love the matte look... these are definitely for you!

You can see me wearing it with a full face of make up here.

It's such a good make up to lift your mood as well! I always feel really peppy and confident!

I hope you all buy it here! I'd love you all to feel as happy and upbeat as I do!

Oh, and that packaging! I hope they don't change it! It's so adorable and quirky!

I also love the label at the bottom. Straight to the point. No numbers. No fuss!

Instagramification!

I've been eyeing up some new ones too! So cute! I'm nail obsessed!

Getting ready today...

I always do my hair first... then I just scoop it out of the way after... I like my make up to be as fresh as possible when I head out so I do it last. I don't mind if my hair gets a little messy between finishing it and leaving the house.

Foundation is done and then I fill in my eyebrows and do my eyeshadow and liner. I do like a dramatic brow and I know it's not to everyone's taste but it makes me happy. I use natural colours and they're all Urban Decay. I love their shadows the most.

I'm using Brighton Rock by Topshop. I love how bright it is! It's a great statement lipstick and especially teamed with Sky High nail polish by Rimmel. I'm almost out of it! 

All done! 

Hope you all have a fabulous day!
