Toni & Guy Extreme Volume Rollers

Toni & Guy Extreme Volume Rollers*(£60.00) 

I don't style my hair too often, but I love the way my hair looks, when I use heated rollers. They add volume, create big glam curls and are super easy to use. I own the Enrapture rollers already and I adore them, but I was excited to try an alternative.

Chanel Deauville Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick

Chanel Deauville Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick* (£26.00)

I don't own many Chanel products, but I do love the formula of Rouge Coco Shine Lipsticks and I wish I had more of them in my stash. They are simply divine! The latest addition to my collection is shade 67 - Deauville*- a perfect everyday shade for those who don't like bold or bright lips and prefer more neutral options.

Guest Post: The Glow Getters Lineup / RosyChicc

Hello everyone! My name is Andrea and I am the girl behind the beauty blog RosyChicc. When the wonderful Sandra asked me to guest post on her blog while she’s away on her holiday, I instantly jumped at the opportunity. The Black Pearl Blog is one of my all time favorite reads and I feel so honored to be guest posting over here! Thank you so much for having me Sandra and I hope you all enjoy! 

Guest Post: Favourite MAC lipsticks / Tasha Meline

Hi there! My name is Tasha and I write for www.tashameline.com. Today I will be guest posting on Sandra’s lovely blog about my top six MAC lipsticks. A very big thank you to Sandra for asking me to guest post whilst she is away! 

Before trying MAC lipsticks I wasn’t a huge lip product lover and could often be found with only lip balm on but once I had bought my first MAC lipstick, I couldn’t stop wearing them. I've only been collecting MAC lipsticks for the last five to six months but in that time they really have become my favourite so here are my top six out of my collection. 

Neom Tranquility Diffuser

I am obsessed with Neom and I have their diffusers and candles in every single room. They recently launched new packaging and added some new fragrances to the range, which made me very excited. I am not sure what style of packaging I prefer to be honest. I like both. The diffusers and candles look different and you can currently get some limited edition jars, plus a smaller size for those who don't want to buy the more expensive 3 wick home candle.

Guest Post: Top 5 MAC products/ Sweet Electric

MAC is one of my favourite brands. I've tried a few of their products over the years so picking a top 5 was difficult. However, I've managed to narrow it down and theres some real gems in here. 

Guest Post: Top 5 MAC Lipsticks/ More Than Adored

First off I would like to say a huge thank you to Sandra! I’ve been reading TBPB since before I started my own blog so it’s such an honor to be doing a guest post over here!

I’ve never shared my favourite Mac lipsticks over on More Than Adored which is strange because Mac lipsticks are my favourite lipsticks to buy. I admit most of my collection is made up of limited edition offerings (I’m such a sucker) but there these are my top five picks from the permanent line. 

Guest Post: Autumn Ambience / A Little Boat Sailing

Hey everyone! My name is Amy and I'm so excited to be over here on Sandra's blog whilst she is away on her holiday. I'm kicking things off today with some of my favourite make up items for this coming autumn; I hope you enjoy. 

Kylie Jenner Inspired Makeup Look / 90's Lip

No matter how hard we try, we can't really avoid reading about the Kardashians and seeing them in the media. They are absolutely everywhere and even someone like me, who couldn't care less about 'celebrities' gets a little bit of inspiration from them sometimes. After all, they are famous for their flawless makeup and I am a makeup addict. The latest Kardashian craze is the 'Kylie Jenner Lip' which is basically a 90's inspired nude lip. I gave it a go and  paired it with a very subtle brown and beige smokey eye, winged liner and big lashes.

August Favourites

I skipped a month in favourites, but I am back with some skincare, bodycare, makeup and fragrance gems I have been loving in August. Hide your bank cards, haha :)

DHC Premium Lipsticks

DHC Premium Lipsticks* (£13.00 each, currently £11.00)

I am absolutely obsessed with the DHC Cleansing Oil and I know that their skincare has many fans worldwide, but I didn't have a clue that they also do makeup. In fact, absolutely stunning makeup! Just look at those lippies! They are gorgeous! 

Plus size gal wardrobe basics/essentials

I might wear dresses when I want to look girly etc, but most of the time I wear a 'mummy uniform' which consists of black leggings, a longline t-shirt or cami, a waterfall cardigan and flats. Add a topknot to that and you have my signature look, haha :) There are things in my wardrobe I simply cannot live without, so I decided to put this little list together and tell you why you need them in your life. I included some pieces from standard ranges (up to a size 18) and some from Asos Curve (18-28), as I buy from both.
