Depth

Usually, I like to keep my lipstick and makeup in general quite subtle. If anything I usually make my eyeliner/eyeshadow the boldest out of all, but I decided to go ahead and buy the topshop lipstick in the shade "depth". This is the dupe of Mac's lipstick "media". It's such an amazing bold colour and the packaging of topshops lipsticks are so cute. 

The lipstick is a deep purple colour that is extremely pigmented when it's first applied however it doesn't last very long throughout the day and I had to re do it a few times.

What I love about this lipstick is you can apply it very light and dab it in to make it a light purple/pink shade, but you can also build up the application to make it as dark as it can be. 

The lipstick looks black in it's case and is rather scary at a first glance, but on the lips it is more of a deep purple colour.  

I love this lipstick and I think it's perfect for nights out and special occasions like Christmas or birthdays. It's not the type of lipstick that I would wear out on a daily basis, but for evenings out I think this lipstick is perfect. It makes you look asif you made some effort with your makeup which is always a winner.

It's very moisturising and glides straight onto the lips. It doesn't really smell of anything which I do like in a lipstick. If a lipstick smells nice then obviously that's a bonus but for me I have always managed to pick lipsticks that smell awful, so I would rather no scent!

It is such a unique colour with a rich glossy finish and I can't wait to find an excuse to wear it again!

Primark Summer Outfit

This outfit is one of my favourites, it is so affordable and so timeless. All the pieces I am wearing are from primark and the total price came to under £25.

First is this beautiful kimono paired with a plain white top.

This looks so cute and is so easy to wear. It's perfect for the spring and summer and I can't wait to wear it! I then paired this outfit with some high waisted denim shorts which are extremely similar to the topshop ones except these were less than £10!

This is one of my favourite go to outfits for summer because it looks so nice all together and it's so easy to wear. It is such a timeless outfit and will never go out of fashion. The quality of all of these pieces are fantastic and I was so impressed when I found these. The shorts are the exact same ones that are being sold in topshop at the moment (joni cut offs) and kimono's similar to these have been sold everywhere recently for ridiculous prices, where as this was so cheap! 

What I love about primark is people have very low expectations and always go in to just get some cheap basics and every single time primark suprise me with some amazing things! I couldn't believe it when I saw the kimono for £10 and when I saw the shorts I didn't expect them to fit like the topshop ones but they do, it's amazing! They're so comfortable and soft and so affordable. They come in all sorts of colours and designs and I can't wait to go back for more and see what else I can find!

Kimono: London Oxford st primark £10

Shorts: my local primark in Telford either £8 or £10

Plain white top: my local primark £3 

Urban Decay Optical Blurring Foundation Brush Review

After purchasing the urban decay naked 2 palette I decided to look into more of urban decays range, and I came across the 'optical blurring foundation brush' I was going to purchase the real techniques foundation brush, but I decided to go for this instead and IT IS THE SOFTEST BRUSH I HAVE EVER TOUCHED IN MY WHOLE LIFE! This foundation brush is absolutely faultless and I love it so much! When I saw a photo of the brush on the internet I thought, there is no way that the bristles can be as soft in person as they come across in this photo... But I was wrong... This is a picture of what the brush looks like in person... Yes, the softness is real.

As I said I cannot fault this foundation brush. Even though the brush was developed to be used with urban decays naked skin weightless ultra definition liquid foundation, it still works with every single other foundation that I have used. The bristles on the brush are INCREDIBLY soft and the synthetic, cruelty free hairs on urban decays brush are divine... No scratching or tickling! It also cleans and dries so fast and easy without any hairs falling out... The size of the brush is also perfect and easy to manipulate around your nose chin and eyes so that blending the foundation is a breeze!

Like the naked palette, this foundation brush may be slightly on the pricey side, but it is so worth it and it makes applying your foundation a hell of a lot easier. 

Coco Chanel vs Marc Jacobs Daisy

Coco Chanel vs Marc Jacobs Daisy... Hmm! Which is my favourite?!

Firstly, let's talk about the coco Chanel perfume. I sprayed Coco on my wrist in the store and I could still smell this wonderful scent through my coat on the way home! I love a strong scent that stays powerful during the day and I find this to be the case with Chanel fragrances. As soon as I tested Coco in the store I fell in love. It's such a warm, comforting scent, and so classy. Exactly how I want to smell and I feel it completes my outfit. This is not something you smell on every girl out there which makes me love it even more.

However, we also have the 'Daisy' perfume by Marc Jacobs. This perfume is completely different to the Chanel perfume! This scent is very light and fresh. I find it doesn't last as long as Coco and after a few hours I'm due a top up. It's a much more casual scent and not as sophisticated and classy as the Chanel fragrance. It's very nice, light and floral and it isn't at all overwhelming. I love the delicate airy sweetness of this scent, it is very summery and I really like it! 

I love them both and it really does depend on the situation as to which I wear. If I'm going out for lunch or too meet a friend, I would pick daisy over coco, because daisy is much lighter, and not as overwhelming as coco. However if I was going to a meeting or a night out, something slightly more sophisticated, I would definitely go for the Chanel fragrance, it is much more mature and classy. They are both beautiful scents and I would recommend both to anyone who is looking for a new perfume! I would recommend daisy to the younger audience as it is more suited to that age range, Coco is much more of an 'adult' scent.
