EOS: The dry lip lifesaver

10:46
After hearing so much about these lip balms from our American friends and having to deal with dry lips for so long, we thought it was finally time to get some for ourselves. We scoured Amazon for the best deal and came up with this EOS 5-pack for just under £14, a significantly better deal than the £6/£7 we'd be expected to pay...

Let's Get Down to Business - A Mulan Makeup Look

16:18
After seven years at my school (a disturbingly large proportion of my life!), I finally had my last day there. But before we all rushed terrifyingly into two months of sporadic exams to hit our offers, we had a final day of fun! Disney Day! We took over the school with our childhood stories and dressed up as the familiar characters we all...

Tanya Burr Nail Polish Bargain!

15:35
Hi guys! If you haven't worked it out by now... I'm a nail polish addict. I purchased a Tanya Burr nail polish in the shade Penguin Chic a while ago and loved the formula but couldn't justify getting any more when they're priced at £5.99 each and I already own so many lovely polishes. However, last week I got an email telling me...

The Infamous Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

10:23
A few weeks ago, I went on an overnight trip for a Model United Nations conference and was speaking to my friends about my straight-lash problems. Their instant recommendation was the Shu Uemura or Shiseido curler. Ever since I've been getting more into makeup and looking into tools, these two curlers have been hailed as almost everyone's holy grail eyelash curlers. I decided...

The Classic Red

17:54
This week, we were taking a look at our lipstick collections and stumbled across a severe lack of suitable reds for the both of us. Even though we had them, we found that what we thought was a simple red lipstick for a classic makeup look turned out to be much more complicated - with pink-based reds, orange-based reds, deep reds, bright reds,...

Seeking Stardust: OPI and Ciate Nails

07:34
I am obsessed with glitter nail polishes, especially if they look holographic/star-like, because they can be used as a top coat over every nail polish colour to give it that extra sparkle, or they can be layered up for a simple but show stopping look. Since seeing photos of the most amazing glitter polishes swatched by other people, I have been pining after...
