Quite Cute swatches & review

For the lovely Izzy http://belleoftheblush.blogspot.com/ who asked for me to do this and to anyone else who would like to read this post :D
Left is Candy Yum Yum which is a matte lipstick. Neon pick color, it may not come across that in the picture, sorry. Very pigmented and the only bright colored lipstick I own, not sure I would be able to wear it on an everyday basis but still would be perfect on a night out with a funky make up look!. Like I said it's a matte and you would probably think it is drying on the lip but thankfully it isn't! If you like the look and sound I would defo recommend :)
Right is Play time which has a cremesheen finish, it's an intense lilac/violet and I already love it! looks glossy and very easy to apply and I think a couple of layers to have it look like the color in the swatch. I would wear this everyday and it's my fav out of the 2.

This for the lovely Sara http://sara-loves-pretty-little-things.blogspot.com/ asked for me to take a picture of the mascara wand


This is what it looks like on...sorry pic isn't the best :)

Quite Cute mini Haul :)

I mentioned a few posts ago about the latest Mac Quite cute collection and I just wanted to show the 2 products I bought, I would of bought more if I had the money but still I'm happy with what I got.
As I don't live 5 mins away from a Mac counter I usually buy online if I can, but when I went to have a look a what they had they had suspended temporarily online purchasing but could still browse the site and so I when I got an email to say they were back up and running I ordered away, I had free delivery which is always good and a free gift! :)
So here's what I got...



Play Time and Candy yum-yum lipsticks
Mac's Haute and naughty mascara which was free!! love anything that's free lol :)

Candy Yum Yum is very bright, hot pink. Not something I would wear every day but I love it! as it's a matte it makes it long lasting on the lips.
Play time is a sheer color but wearable and I would wear everyday...I like this lots! Having not long received them both I haven't worn them lots but so far so good from what I have! :)

Thanks for reading lovelies :D

Hello to you all..I hope your all well?
Just a little post today, a different one from my beauty related ones.
The one thing I love a lot is being able to go on holiday, and I've been lucky to visit a few place mainly in USA coz I love it there!!! lol. I'm saving hard now for my holiday to LA & Vegas ....usually when I go away with my bf were always on the move rather than sitting by a pool/beach everyday we like to be busy most of the days, so sometimes I come back needing a rest haha ;)...but I love it! it's just great to explore and make the most of our time whist we can hey, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with doing nothing but chill on holiday because for most of us it's the only time we get to relax :)....we're all different and like do do different things which is wonderful, so I'm just curious on what you like to do on holiday, where your fav place is so far and why, and where would you most like to visit?
Here's some of my pic's of my fav destinations so far....


Toronto, Canada 2008


New York 2009

1st time to Orlando 2007 Halloween time


2nd time to Orlando...Christmas 2008

New Barry M nail effects


I'm not sure if you've heard about the new nail effects....
There's Pink fizz, blue print and White frost and of course you all know about the black magic but I've left it in the picture. I can't wait to get my hands on them especially White frost :), I know I made a post about the new ones coming out from Models own but these are a little cheaper at £3.99 and if you can get them when there 2 for £5 then even better hey?!. You can buy them here http://www.barrym.com/products/product.asp?id=155 and I believe you get buy them in stores now...so I will check my local Boots/Superdrug this weekend if they have any left as I would rather not pay the del charge with buying online! :/.
Whats you thought on them? do you have them already?

I hope your all well?

March monthly favs :)

So here are my March fav's, thing that I don't use on a regular basis but love :)




1. Urban Decay, Naked Palette. I'm sure you've seen my post about my love of this but lately I've been using it alot. The shades are just gorgeous and perfect for work without being to ott with a look. But you can also use it for a smokey eye for evening, which I love about this palette.
2. Mac slimshine lipstick in Bare. I love this alot. It applies easily for a full coverage, subtle color so perfect for daily use. It's a nude, with hint of brown.
3. Benefit Bad gal smoldering black eye pencil. I've always loved eyeliner and have worn it for many years now, after finding this amongst my collection I started to use it and remembered why I like it so much!
4. Mac, Shell pearl beauty powder. From the Liberty of London collection.
This so gorgeous, I use it as a blush and it gives a nice sheen to my cheeks. It's a nice pink color with gold shimmers. Defo one I will keep coming back to.

What are your favorites this month?
