Personal Style #2

You know those day's where you just feel the wardrobe fairy has been rummaging through your clothes? and you manage to find the perfect outfit or look? Today was one of those days for me.

Makeup:-

 LOLA Illuminating Base || NARS Sheer Glow in Gobi || RIMMEL Wake Me Up Concealer || COLLECTION Lasting Perfection Concealer || RIMMEL Stay Matte Powder || SLEEK Lace Blush by 3 in Crochet || COLLECTION Liquid Eyeliner || LOLA Automatic Pencil in Black || MAYBELLINE Baby Lips in Hydrate || LOLA Matte Long Lasting Lipstick in Cheeky Cherry

Product  of the day: LOLA Long Lasting Lipstick in Cheeky Cherry

Even though it transfer's easily it really is long lasting! I applied it at 7am and didn't have to touch it up all day. It is a very Neon Orange/Red, so perfect for a bold lip look.

Outfit:- 

I was sporting a cream Topshop scalloped top, a grey H&M jumper, a Pandora bracelet, Forever 21 Jeans and Brown Ankle Boots. All of these items are unfortunately not sold anymore but below I styled a similar outfit with a few extra items I would add if I had the money!

Asos Shirt with Scallop Collar || Grey Long Sleeved Ribbed Jumper || Daisy Street Denim Tube Pant || Balloon Zipper oversized leather tote bag in yellow from Boticca || Purified Womens Petra 2 Leather Heeled Ankle Boots - Black || Caterina Mariani leaf necklace || Zoe and Morgan "Jett" necklace || Asos Quilted Duffel Bag

White Scallop Top; Topshop £16

Baby Lips in Cherry Me and Pink Punch from Superdrug; £2.99 each

Whilst in town I popped into one of my favourite beauty stores; M.A.C and got a sample of their studio fix foundation in NC15 as I haven't tried it on my skin since I was the ripe age of 13! The lady at the desk was also kind enough to give a sample of M.A.C's Natural Radiance Primer in Pink to make sure the foundation looked its best when it was applied.

I also picked up a bit of tartan ribbon (to make into a bow) and a lacy collar which I plan to add to a plain white shirt (once I've learnt how to do it!).

Thats all for now but once I find a new job there should be a lot more of these to come!

Rimmel Apocalips Big Bang: Review

At the moment I have a small obsession with red lipsticks (small is an big understatement) and I have been eyeing up this beauty for months now; Rimmel Apocalips in Big Bang. So when my boyfriend said he would take me on a shopping spree for my Christmas present (all expenses paid for) I sprinted to Superdrug to get this lip laquer first!

Catergory-wise I would place it in between Lipsticks and Lipgloss; the way you apply this product is identical to lipgloss, however it is much higher in consistency and gives a bold red colour as soon as you apply it. The product is also long-lasting as it acts as lip stain, making sure your gloss stays perfect all day.

My one complaint about this product is that its hard to get rid of mistakes. If you glide it over a bit too fast or accidentally go past your lip line, the lipgloss stains that part of your face. Which means a lot of scrubbing to get it off.

Overall I love this product and its the perfect red for winter and early spring!

Here's how the product looks after applied:

Hope your all looking forward to NYE tonight and I wish you a Happy New Year!

Talk to you later,
