Hi All! 

Today I have a FOTD to show you all featuring my latest purchase, after always looking and admiring Glamour Doll Eyes shadows I finally ordered a Grab Bag with 20 samples in it (more at the end of the post)

Firstly here is today's look :D

• Beauty UK Blusher Bronzer pot
• Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Eyeliner in "Black"

• Avon Supershock Mascara in "Black"
• 17 Lasting Fix Lipstick in "Balmy Beige"
• MUA Eyeshadow in Pearl 1
• Glamour Doll Eyes Shadows in "Brown Eyed Girl" "Tabloid" and "After Prom"

 For anyone that doesnt know you can buy Glamour Doll Eyes from here.

I purchased the 20 Sample Baggie Grab Bag which cost $22.50 roughly £14 and the shipping was reasonable.

WIth every Glamour Doll Eyes purchase you get 2 free samples so I was expecting 22 I got 23! The colours I got are all amazing expect more looks soon :D 

I also got some cute cards and stickers.

My samples came in baggies, I depotted the 3 I wanted to use today in Jars. There is a lot in the baggies enough to use each shadow various times! Vee also sells sample jars too.

I will definitely be buying more and think I will buy the jars next time as it saves money in the long run :D

 Overall I am really impressed with these and glad I eventually purchased lol!

Tomorrows post will be the final part of my nail art series and a special announcent.

Until then...

Coleen Signature Eyes "Emerald Goddess"

Hey girlies! Today I am sharing the bargain of the week with you and doing a mini review plus eye look for you all!

I got this palette in SemiChem for 49p!!! I couldnt' pass up on that even if they turned out not to be too great but the formula on these are really pigmented and gorgeous! I bought 5 palettes all together and it didnt even cost for £2.50! I got 4 eyeshadow palettes in 3 different shades (I have an extra of this one I am showing today) and I accidently picked up a lip palette thinking it was another e/s one...oh well :)

Here is Coleen Signature Eyes in "Emerald Goddess" I don't know when these were released or how much the original selling price would have been sorry.

Again my laptop decides to turn pictures the wrong way grrr! So you can see 4 gorgeous green colours varying from a highlight colour way darker to a beautiful mossy green colour, I was well impressed once I got these home and had a peek (they were shrink wrapped in the shop so I couldnt open them)

Here is what I used to do todays look (minus my UDPP which I forgot to photograph)

Coleen Palette, Black 17 eyeliner, Avon Supershock mascara, Maxfactor freebie mascara (but super freaking awesome) and my old faithfull eyeshadow brushes. I only have these 2!!!

This is the look I got, I only used the shadows from the palette so as you can see I think it turned out pretty good! I have no other makeup on as its just too hot and I would be uncomfortable lol!

No Glasses

(sorry for the bad eyebrows I am growing them out to be re-shaped soon)

Glasses

Hope you all like it, you can also see my natural hair here too hehe!!!

Review: Lush Retread Conditioner

Next review for today is Lush Retread conditioner which costs £8.60 for 245g tub

What Lush say about this product -
Triple strength conditioner for extra softness. As with so many Lush products, Retread appears to resemble a cholesterol-laden pudding. It is scented with violets and oranges with a hint of sensual musk. We dip our hands in and plaster the super-smoothing cream all over our hair for the seaweed, yoghurt, cantaloupe melon and jojoba oil to give seriously sad hair its shine back. Do not use it if your hair is lifeless and limp, Retread would squash it flat. Use it when your hair is feeling rough, harsh and wrecked. Retread will restore its sanity.

What I say about this product -
I love this product and it's on my list for my next Lush haul lol.
The smell is gorgeous and it does exactly what it says on the tin lol...I noticed a big difference in the softness of my hair and it did make it quite shiny which is normally hard for my hair :)

Review: Lush Big Shampoo

Todays next review is Lush Big Shampoo which costs £9.90 for a 330g tub

What Lush say about the product -
Sea salt shampoo for shine, softness and big endowments. This pot of oceanic goodness is 50% sea salt to give limp hair the volume it deserves, with seaweed infusion to soften hair and citrus juices for shine. After using Big, your hair will be bouncing back to life.

What I say about the product -
I am not sure whether I like this product or not and until I make up my mind I won't be buying the tub ( I got a free sample during my 1st trip into Lush)
While washing my hair it felt ok, once rinsed and that my hair felt clean but once my hair was dried my hair felt dirty again ( I don't know if anyone else has experienced this?)
So on that note I dont wanna to buy a product that doesnt leave my hair feeling clean as I don't know if this is normal or if the product just didn't agree with my hair?
Anyone else had this problem with Big???
In regards to the scent and texture I loved it and I would purchase it again if only my hair didn't feel dirty after it dried again :(

Wow I am banging these posts out today :)
Have another review planned along with 2 OOTD's (yesterdays and todays) I may even manage another few posts..maybe Susies request for how I got into nailpolish...

Review : Soap & Glory Flake Away

Next review is Soap & Glory's Flake Away, costs approx £2.25 for the 50ml size and £6.50 for the 300ml size so obviously the bigger one is better value.

What S&G say about the product-

Transforms your scaly legs from reptilian to radiant. Nothing eliminates dry surface flakes as fast as Flake Away™. For superhero-strength skin smoothing spa body polish with Shea Butter, sweet almond oil, peach seed powder, sea salt and sugar.
Apply a handful of Flake Away™ onto damp skin and massage in circular motions until most of the grains are gone. Rinse well, pat dry and apply body glossing oil such as Easy Glistening™ or moisture butter such as The Righteous Butter™.
One round in the shower with this scrub and no-one will ever have to know that all this time you’ve been flaking it.

What I say about the product -

I like the product but I honestly don't think it does as good a job as a scrub, I noticed a slight change on my skin but nothing that would make you say "wow!" I would maybe use this product again as an inbetweener scrub during the week and a more vigorous scrub once a week or so.

It still has a lovely scent and the texture is ok, maybe a bit too smooth for a scrub which is why its not as effective as others I have used.

Hope this is helpful for you all, I have more reviews planned for today and my first 2 OOTD posts coming up also.

Review - Gosh Extreme Art Eyeliner

Todays review is Gosh Extreme Art Eyeliner in shade 23 - Dragon Green

Now a little background story first - I cannot I repeat cannot apply liquid eyeliner! This one was easy, I dont know why if it was the thin brush or what but I didn't have any problems putting this on....Now I hear you ask, Why would I buy a liquid eyeliner if I can't apply it???

Answer - I didn't, I got it free with a voucher in More Magazine last week! So I thought hey why not try it and if it doesnt work then no love lost eh?

I love this liner and have used it a few different ways from I got it last weekend :)

Heres todays look with the liner, just keep it really simple today didn't have energy for makeup this morning haha!

Sorry for the pic, this is this evening post work and post workout lol!

If anyone is interested in the Gosh eyeliner or any other Gosh Products they are stocked at Superdrug. This particular type of liner is £7.

Any questions feel free to ask :)

Review - Soap And Glory "Heel Genius"

So here is Review Numero Uno!

It's Heel Genius from Soap and Glory 125ml tube costs £5 from Boots etc at the minute.

What S&G Say about the product -

Heel Genius™ is an amazing foot cream marvel with a miraculous moisturising mix.
No mean feet. Feet should be friendly. Soft. Smooth. Even lovely to look at. Massage a generous layer onto clean feet every night (or at least as often as you remember). Slip cotton socks overtop and let it soak in while you sleep.
Better than a pedicure? It renovates rough feet in a single overnight session, doubles as a foot cream, and will give even the roughest of cuticles a run for its money.
At Soap & Glory, we believe that you should never have to be afraid of your own feet.
(extract taken from their website)


What I say about the product -

I love love love it, the smell is gorgeous not the usual S&G smell its more like a mild smell of tea tea oil in my opinion! Not only does it smell good it actually works and believe me I have BAD problem areas on my feet, I can feel the difference after only one application of this product so for me its definately worth the price tag :)

Has anyone else used this product or similar? What did you think?
Answers on a postcard please!

Well thats my first review done YAY!

I will be doing loads more of these in the next few days/weeks to review my whole collection, this will help my purge aswell as there is definately stuff I dont use :)

Bye for now
