What's In My Makeup Bag?


I have a big collection of makeup bags, but I keep going back to simple, clear designs where all my products don't even have to be organised to be found easily :) I got this clear bag with a skincare gift set by Amie* and it is ideal! It has nice finishing touches, with a white leather trim, pink zip and little flowers on the bottom. It is the perfect size as well.

New Urban Decay Liners & Angled Brush


When it comes to black liners, I swear by the Bourjois Liner Pinceau Liquid Liner and the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencil in shade Zero. I repurchased both of them many times and I can't fault them at all. I like to try new options though and the new Urban Decay offerings are just as good as my two favourites. There is a new liquid liner, a cream liner, a 24/7 glide-on pencil, an angled brush and a retractable pencil.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipsticks



I am a big fan of matte lips and I absolutely adore Bourjois as a brand, so their new Rouge Edition Velvet Lipsticks* got me super excited for Spring! I expected them to be quite similar to the Rimmel Apocalips, but they are MUCH better and I am blown away by their silky, velvety formula, vibrant colours and incredible lasting power.

Chanel Blush / Reflex

Chanel Blush / Reflex  £31.00

I don't own many Chanel products, but this blush is a real gem in my collection and I absolutely love it. I received it as a Valentine's Day gift a year ago and I mentioned it in many blog posts already, but for some reason I haven't reviewed it properly until now :)

Urban Decay Heavy Metal Loose Glitters & Bondage Adhesive



I absolutely adore Urban Decay, which means that every single one of their launches really excites me. When the Heavy Metal Loose Glitters arrived in the post, I couldn't wait to give them a go. I just love anything sparkly, but... I am not too sure if I will be able to pull them off :)

NYR's 10th Anniversary Edition Wild Rose Beauty Balm


To celebrate the 10th birthday of NYR's Wild Rose Beauty Balm, the brand released a gorgeous limited edition jar adorned with a design created by a British artist Alice Shields. With pink accents and floral detail, it is right up my alley. I actually reviewed the Wild Rose Beauty Balm ages ago (here) and I noticed that the older I get, the more I love it. It is an absolute miracle worker and has many purposes.

March Favourites


I always get super excited about preparing and writing my monthly favourites posts. I just love sharing my new skincare and makeup discoveries or simply some old products I have been enjoying. I didn't wear a lot of makeup in March to be honest and focused on skincare, body care and hair care, but I had to include some makeup gems too :)

Benefit Big Easy


Benefit Big Easy* (£27.50, 35ml)

I am all about a flawless, but natural looking base and BIG EASY gives me just that, plus many extra benefits. It is described as a 'multi-balancing complexion perfector' and offers light to medium coverage. Designed for oily and combination skin, Big Easy is an oil free wonder with a unique liquid to powder formula and it gets a big thumbs up from me.

Bobbi Brown Nectar & Nude Eye Palette



I've been lusting after this palette since the launch of the Nectar & Nude Collection, so the fact that it is finally mine makes me really, really  happy :) I was lucky to be offered a chance to review a beauty product from Debenhams and I didn't have to think twice about my choice :) Surprisingly, this is my first Bobbi Brown product ever, which might sound ridiculous coming from a beauty blogger, but... it looks like I might turn into a Bobbi Brown addict and I totally blame this stunning palette! It features a nice selection of neutrals, with four matte shades and two shimmers and it suits all skin tones and eye colours.

Crownbrush 626 'Starter Kit' Brush Set


I love makeup brushes and I probably own far too many already, but... I was really excited to try the new 626 Brush Set* by Crownbrush. It is described as the perfect starter kit and I couldn't agree more. It comes with 11 good quality brushes wrapped in a faux leather brush wrap and retails at £39.99. The set launched yesterday and you can now buy it from www.crownbrush.co.uk. 

What beauty products do you like to receive as gifts?


I am pretty sure that many of you received an awkward beauty present in the past. I know I have... I think that beauty bloggers are extremely hard to buy for, unless you are always up to date with their makeup collection and current wishlist :) haha. Beauty gifts in general can be very tricky to pick and that's why Debenhams created a survey to find out the preferred beauty products people love as presents. The findings of the survey will be promoted on Debenhams social media platforms as well as blog and online publications and I can't wait to find out the outcome. Today I would like to show you my personal top three beauty gifts and... ask you what beauty products you love receiving as gifts yourself?
