I love Barry M Nail Paints and I always buy some new colours when I am in Boots or Superdrug. At £2.99-£3.99 they are a steal. The newest additions to the Barry M family are their Matte & Textured Glitter Nail Paints in some fabulous colours.
Recent Beauty Purchases: YSL, Shu Uemura, Laura Mercier, Chantecaille, Sephora, Caudalie, Diptyque
I am trying to think of an excuse for all my recent purchases, but... I can't think of anything :) haha. I simply couldn't resist placing a couple of orders online. I have been lusting after the Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation, Diptyque Baies Candle and Shu Uemura Eyelash Curlers for months (maybe years), so I finally bought them :) I purchased some other bits as well and... I also got my mitts on a beautiful Sephora Highlighter!
Ebay Bargain: Crystal Statement Necklace
Most of you know that I am obsessed with statement necklaces. After a big clear out, I managed to reduce the amount of them to just over 100 different styles, but... I simply can't stop buying more. I love them!!! Most of them are quite cheap though, so it isn't a big problem :) haha. My latest find is this beautiful (and cheap) crystal necklace.
Dare To Bare Campaign - Support Breast Cancer Care in October
In October, Escentual.com and Breast Cancer Care have joined forces to launch an amazing #DareToBare Campaign to get women go to work with no makeup to raise money for charity. I work from home, so it is quite an easy task for me, but... surprisingly the urge of putting makeup on is stronger than I thought :) The campaign will run throughout October and you can take part by:
- donating via one of the pages on Just Giving
- creating your own fund raising page and joining the team.
- tweeting a 'selfie' with no makeup on to @escentualdotcom and/or @BCCare using the hashtag #DareToBare
Escentual will be donating £1 for the first 1,000 women who tweet their #DareToBare photo, so please, please, please take part :)
-buying one of 5 top rated skincare products from Escentual - 10% of the proceeds will be donated to Breast Cancer Care
All proceeds from the campaign go towards women suffering from breast cancer, so it would be amazing if you could donate, even if it's just £1. It only takes a minute and you can use PayPal.
You can read more about the campaign here.
You can help me raise my small £100 target HERE and I would really appreciate it, if you could spread the word about the campaign. It is such a great cause.
How To Find More Time For Reading
How much do you read these days? How much did you use to read? If you read a lot more in the past and you’re not reading all that much now, it could be because you’re busy and just don’t have the time for your books anymore, no matter how much you love them.
Bourjois Color Edition 24h Eyeshadows and new Color Boost Lip Crayon shade
Oh Bourjois, I can't even begin to describe how much I love you! I couldn't wait for the release of Color Edition 24h Eyeshadows and I am also very excited to see more shades added to the Color Boost Lip Crayon range . I am in love with the Autumnal shades of the eyeshadows and the lip colour I was kindly sent couldn't be more A/W appropriate.
Elf Highlighters and Blushers: reviews + swatches
I recently placed a little e.l.f. order and it consisted of some highlighting products and blushers. Let's just say that I have a highlighter obsession and my collection got slightly out of control :) haha. I just love a bit of shimmer. I bought two of the Allover Colour Sticks, two Shimmering Facial Whips and two Baked Blushers. If you follow me on instagram, you will know that some products were disappointing and some were absolutely gorgeous. I also accidentally found dupes for MAC Mineralize Skin Finishes in Soft & Gentle and Stereo Rose!

We all love to throw a party or have a great dinner party every once in a while. Some people choose to have small intimate affairs. Where the detail is in the food and the good company you keep.
