HEY CHICAS, I hope everyone is enjoying the sun we're getting! I'm going to show you this gorgeous Urban Decay eyeshadow palette which I picked up for £20 (reduced from £27 because the primer potion was missing, how cool?!). It's not one that I'd heard of before, being in a wooden box I'm sure that's where the name 'Sustainable Box' came from. I really like the packaging as it's nice and solid whilst looking quite quirky. It opens by sliding the lid to the side, which took my blonde brain a few seconds to figure out as I tried to yank the lid up!

NIP + FAB BUST FIX
NIP + FAB IS A BRAND WITH MANY different body/face products which apparently use the latest technology to deliver proper results. They have priducts such as Tummy Fix, which aims to firm up tummies, Cellulite Fix (it's in the name), Spot Fix and other such things.
When the Dailymail published an article about a girl who claimed the Bust Fix made her boobs grow a cup size in a month, the serum sold out everywhere! Literally, I couldn't get hold of it in my local Boots for a ridonculously long time. It's meant to firm and plump by getting into your boobs fat cells and making them explode (well, not quite), with the possibility of plumping your titties up by as much as a cup size. Pretty cool right?
Having read reviews about this product many times before I bought it, I came to realise there aren't many in depth ones (not that I could find anyway) so I took the plunge and bought it anyway, knowing that if it wasn't worth the hype, at least I can blog about it and give a thorough review for anyone thinking of buying it.
Let me start with the before and after photos, which is something I couldn't find ANYWHERE, and I'm all about the photographic results so if you don't like boobs look away :o
Obviously to get a fair result I wore the same bikini without and inbuilt padding or anything to accentuate ma lumps.

THE BODY SHOP 'COLOUR GLIDE SHINE' LIPPY
HEY GORGEOUS GIRLS, I hope everyone is having a fab day. Another post between my rigorous revision sessions (something I'm completely new to...). Last week I popped into the beloved Body Shop and came across a new range of lipsticks. They're super moisturizing but with great colour pay off at the same time. I swatched a few and decided on the colour ''cheeky coral''.
The packaging is delightful, it feels sturdy yet nice to look at, and the lipstick itself is great. Seeing as the weather is being hormonal and the sun isn't on permanent show, I wanted a moisturizing lipstick to fend off the bitter windy days. This is it seriously!

THE KATE MIDDLETON BLOWJOB
NOT THAT ONE YOU DIRTY PEOPLE! (probably the only post that will ever attract a male audience). The Kate Middleton blow dry has become something of an obsession for some women. Her long silky locks are always immaculate and as we all know, her signature look is ''fresh from the hairdresser blow drys''. I'll put this out there, I am in no way a Kate fanatic - I just like her hair. I think she's been oversold now by the press, but she seems a nice lady.
Back to the hair. For my birthday, my boyfriend's mum kindly bought me a ''WAHL hot air styler'', designed to make blowdrying your own hair into waves much easier (otherwise I look somewhat inept trying to do it with a hair dryer, arms everywhere!). It's a great little tool, which did take a while to get used to but I had a play around with different ways of styling it and I've come to love it.

THE BODY SHOP VITAMINE E RANGE + DISCOUNT CODES
I RECENTLY BOUGHT BOTH THE moisture serum and the moisture cream in the Vitamin E range from The Body Shop and I've been using them for long enough now to write a full review for you. Before using these products I generally used random creams that were knocking about, nothing in specific. My skin sometimes felt quite tight after cleansing before I'd moisturized it. I'd not really paid much attention to a moisturizing routine though, I did it when I felt like it (not often enough apparently). ANYWAY I love these products, the serum is basically an extra form of deep mouisturisation which ovbiously you apply before the moisturizer. The lady in the shop told me to wait a good 30 seconds before applying the cream. I always add the cream to my morning routine but most nights before bed I leave it at just the serum because it's enough to keep my skin hydrated through the night without a product overload.
In terms of serums, I've usually understood them to have purposes like lightening dark pigmentationor reducing acne scarring etc, let me stress this cream does not claim to do any of those things - it's purely a deep moisturizer.

Idol Lash Review
I'VE BEEN DEBATING WHETHER TO buy an eyelash enhancing serum for a while now as I was put off by some reviews claiming they had experienced all kinds of scary side effects, such as eye colour changes, darkening around the eye, irritation, maybe death...(sure, not death but you get the point). However the idea of fluttering lashes seemed too good to resist so I took to the internet in search of a less harsh serum, hence discovering Idol Lash. Nobody has complained about side effects and it seems very safe to use so I bought it on Amazon for £35 (standard price for this product).
