Sleek Makeup

You will find it hard to believe, but I haven't tried Sleek until I got their brow kit in a promo box from Boots a couple of weeks ago. Yep... I am such a bad beauty blogger, haha :) I have been meaning to pick up one of their contour kits and a matte lipstick for ages though and I finally got a chance to try them.

OOTD: Cobalt Blue and Leather

I very rarely wear smart clothes, but I really wanted to try something different and inject more colour into my wardrobe. I picked the Joanna Hope Blouse with PU Trim Collar* (£27.00) and Nightingales PU Pencil Skirt* (£33.00) and I styled them in two ways.

NARS Multiple in South Beach

I don't own many NARS products, but the  NARS Multiple in South Beach* (£30.00) has been on my wishlist since I read that Millie Mackintosh and J.Lo use it to achieve a gorgeous bronzed glow. I have been loving cream formulas lately, so this new addition to my makeup bag is just perfect.

Dolce & Gabbana Sunglasses Giveaway

 My favourite brand of sunglasses is definitely Dolce and Gabbana. For some reason, their frames always catch my eye and most importantly... suit my face shape. The latest additions to my collection are the Dolce and Gabbana 4192 Lip Gloss Sunglasses in Black*(£106.00) and I am slightly obsessed with them. I am also giving away a pair of D&G sunglasses to one of my lucky readers and you can find out how to enter below.

My Gallery Wall

I have been working on my gallery wall for a while. Collecting frames, prints etc. I am still unsure if I will add more bits and bobs to it, but I am happy with the way it looks at the moment. Actually... I am in love and I can't stop staring at it, haha :)

MAC Pro Longwear Lip Pencil in Staunchly Stylish

MAC Pro Longwear Lip Pencil in Staunchly Stylish (£15.00)

I have been meaning to pick up a MAC lip pencil for a while, but I wasn't sure what shade or formula I should get. After looking at swatches on various blogs, I settled on the Pro Longwear Lip Pencil in Staunchly Stylish. It's slightly more expensive than the standard MAC Lip Pencil, but it is meant to last longer on the lips etc. But was it worth the extra money?

Soups & Pesto with Tower Soup Maker

Soups are a big part of my diet and there is nothing better than a warming homemade soup on a cold day! Add a toasted garlic baguette or freshly baked bread and I am in heaven! That's why I couldn't say no to trying the Tower Soup Maker*. As a foodie, I simply couldn't wait to get cooking! 

Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Colour (NEW Nudes)

I am all about nude, matte lips at the moment and I have been loving the new shades of Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Colour* (£19.50 each). The new additions feature four dreamy nudes and I became slightly obsessed with one of them :) I mentioned it in my September Favourites and on my Instagram. It is LOVE!

New Limited Edition Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balms

To celebrate the 20th Birthday of the incredible Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm*(£9.50), Nuxe released three limited edition designs with three different coloured lids: Pink, Yellow and Green.

Black Swan Halloween Makeup Look (AD)

When Fragrance Direct asked me to prepare a makeup look for their Halloween Lookbook, I couldn't wait to get creative. I was assigned the Black Swan look, which happens to be one of my favourite films ever :) Yay! Here is the final result. Yes, I realise that I look a little bit crazy :) I gave my husband a mini heart attack.

Illamasqua Multi Facet Palette in Semblance

Illamasqua's new Facets Collection launched today and it is absolutely stunning! I was kindly sent the Multi Facet Palette in Semblance* (£45.00) to try out and I am in love! 

Fitbug Orb Review

I like tracking my daily activities and workouts through various devices. I have a Fitbit Flex and a Polar FT4 watch and I reviewed both of  them on the blog in the past.  I am always on the lookout for new fitness gadgets though and the  Fitbug Orb* really caught my eye. It is everywhere at the moment and everyone seems to love it, but is it worth the hype?
