July Favourites

Hi Everyone!
Time for my July favourites!


Nivea Energy Fresh Deodorant
This is hands down my favourite deodorant, it smells amazing and fresh and works really well too. I just wish I could find it in a bigger bottle!

Urban Decay Naked Palette
I love this palette and I use it all the time, but this month I've been using it loooads. It's just wonderful. :)

Max Factor Nail Polish in Ivory
This is a gorgeous polish, it applies really well and is an amazing colour. I've been wearing this on my toes a lot this month. Here's a NOTD using this polish.

MUA Eyeliner in Snow White
I've been using this on my waterline this month, it's a lovely creamy pencil and has decent staying power.

L'oreal Caresse in Sweet Berry
I love wearing this for a very easy, casual look. It's very wearable and easy to apply on the go. The taste/scent is gorgeous too! Here's my review on the L'oreal caresse lipsticks


MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft and Gentle
I am in love with this product, it gives the perfect dewy, glowy finish.


Maybelline Colossal Volume Mascara
I've been loving this mascara this month, it really does give amazing volume. It's worth a try if you're after a lot of volume. 


DKNY Be Delicious Endless Blossom Perfume
For me this is the perfect summer fragrant, its light, floral and sweet. 


GOSH Light 'N Shine Lipgloss in Shade 05
This is such a beautiful lipgloss, so shiny and shimmery. It has a purpley tint to it and smells like vanilla.


L'oreal Studio Secrets Lip Glow
This is a great balm product that changes to a unique colour when you apply it. I love the warm shade of pink it turns on me.


What are you favourites this month?
Thanks for reading,
Jess

Sunday Night Make Up Shake Up #3

Hi everyone,
Here are my picks of under used make up for this week.


Urban Decay 15 Year Anniversary Palette
This palette is soo gorgeous! I adore it, I don't use it much though. I think thats because it's quite annoying to use if you're in a rush, this is due to the gorgeous but not very functional packaging.

MUA Heaven and Earth Palette
I havn't used this in ages, it'll be great for easy eye looks for work.

17 Va Va Voom Mascara
I've not used this mascara for a while, I remember it being a pretty good mascara overall.

Maybelline Color Tattoo in Permanent Taupe
I've not used this much since I bought it so I'm going to make an effort with it this week as it is lovely.

 Sexy Mother Pucker Lipgloss in Candy Gloss
This is a pretty gloss that doesn't get much love from me. 

Collection 2000 Shimmer Shades in Blushalicious
This is such a pretty selection of blushes, nice, summery colours.

Nivea Young Be Beautiful Tinted Moisturiser
I didn't like this much as it doesn't give much coverage, but I want to try using it under my foundation.

Rimmel Royal Gloss in Love It 
This is a clear, sparkly gloss that tastes yummy. Not sure why I don't use it much.

Rimmel Eyeliner in Aubergine
I love purple! But I'm sure how well purple eye make up suits me, but I'll give this lovely creamy eyeliner a go seeing as I've had it forever!

NYC Color Wheel in Pink Cadillac
This was a bargain from Poundland, these neutral shadows are soft and pigmented. Great for an everyday look.

NOTD - Max Factor's Ivory

Hi everyone,
I have a NOTD for you all today of a lovely polish that I picked up a couple of weeks ago. I'd been after it for a while and it's soo pretty, it's Max Factor's Ivory.
Ivory is a beautiful, cool toned, pale gold.



I applied three coats of the Ivory polish and then as an accent nail I put a couple of coats on of a Claire's acessories glitter top coat which has no name. :(
But the top coat has pale green and baby pink chunky glitter in it.

Thanks for reading :)

Feel Unique Wishlist

Hi everyone,
I've been lusting after quite a few things from Feel Unique this weekend so I thought I'd share them with you.


Jane Iredale Chocoholicks Lip Gloss Palette - £24.95
How divine does this sound?! A lipgloss palette that tastes like chocolate!


Stila In The Light Palette - £25
I've heard this rivals the Naked palette, I'd just like it really because I love neutral shadows :) I also would love to try the much raved about shadow called 'Kitten'.


Korres Lip Butter in Quince - £7
I've heard great things about these and I love that they're tinted.

The Balm Nude 'Tude Palette - £26
Another neutrals palette, blatantly essential!

Burt's Bees products sound great, I'd love to try them. :)

This Week's Freebies!

Hi everyone!
I thought I'd share with you the freebies that I recieved this week!
I love freebies(obviously), especially when I recieve them through the post.

I recieved this Elemental Herbology sample from Whats in my handbag, which is a great website that lets you discover what peoples favourite products are, and request samples of certain products.
This product is a Cell Plumping Facial Hydrator with SPF 8.
This is a decent sized sample, you get 15ml of product.

The other freebie I recieved this week was some Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream samples, I havn't been impressed by any BB creams that I've tried yet but I'll still give this a go and see if it's any good. :)
The samples only come in the shade 'Light', you get three 1ml sachets and it has SPF 30 in it.

You can get this freebie by filling in the form on this site... http://www.maybelline.co.uk/bbsample

Hope you all have a good weekend!
