More NARS!

So I went to meet an friend for coffee this morning. Unfortunately the Coffee shop we were in has a Space N.K. right next door! eeek! I think you can guess what happened next

I went in 'just to have a look' as I have previously only bought Nars from websites. I came away clutching the Brazil eyeshadow duo, and believe me,  I thought that was extremely restrained of me!!

I wanted something a little bit 'perkier' for spring summer and the hungry heart collection wasn't doing it for me.

The duo has a nice light auburn coppery gold paired with a bronzed rosy pink. I wanted something pink (ish), that didn't make my eyes look as if I had been crying for hours! See pics below:

NARS Brazil

NARS Brazil Swatch

Very pretty, I am off to experiment now. So Exciting getting new things!

Good News!!!

I AM A WINNER!!!

So Happy :) I am a subscriber to Sirvinya on youtube (if you haven't seen her vids, check her out HERE!

She did a look with products from Beauty Counter Direct and had a competition/ giveaway on her channel for a free Pout lipstick, and... well... I won one!!! WHOOP!

So happy I can't tell you! I never win anything, plus! I really like Pout, I have a couple of their brushes which are great. I bought my business partner a pout lipstick for Christmas and kind of wished that I had bought one for myself too, but, now I have one YAY!!!! 

I will post pics here when it arrives. Very Excited!!!!!

Whoohooo, more goodies!!

:)

My Wish List to Date

Liquid eyeliner Her Glitz 

Keychain with mirror

From Barry M:

Corrector

Haul! NARS, Benefit + Freebies!

NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil 'Dolce Vita'

NARS Lip Pencil 'Rosebud'

Dolce Vita (Top) Rosebud (Bottom) 

Benefit Dandelion

This product does actually seem to do what it claims! I was walking out of the bathroom and caught myself in the mirror, I actually did a double take as I looked so healthy! Is if I had just come back from a brisk walk on a crisp Autumn day. Great! It's always good to know I didn't waste my money!

Unfortunately it's quite hard to get a swatch as it is such a sheer powder (which is, i suppose why it works so well!), here is my attempt below...

Benefit Dandelion (Top) NARS Silvana (Bottom)

NARS Blush 'Silvana'

NARS Silvana Blush is a really great colour, exactly what I was wanting. Something that goes on fairly sheer and gives a nice warm glow to the skin (kind of like a 'light' bronzer). It has a golden sheen and well worth looking at next time you're near a NARS stockist!

FREE STUFF!! :)

So, the company that I bought my Nars and Benefit from had a special offer on - A free goody bag when spending over £35. Below are the contents! 

Two Johnny Loves Rosie Hair Grips

A pair of Bloom eyelash curlers and a lip glaze in 'Lavish'

Rescue Beauty Lounge Make up wipe and Easy Streaks hair attachment

Hair Moisturising Serum and Skin Doctors Toner

All the freebies are great! I think it's always good to get some free stuff anyway :) I'll see how well the products work and post the results here soon.

     

The weather was very strange on New Years Day in Shropshire. Look at these frosted spiders webs! Wish I could find some glittery jewellery as intricate as this!
