Review: 2011 Stila Lip Glaze Trio Warm

Hey everyone,
                     I think the warm lip glaze set was out at X-Mas time. You might be able to get it of Amazon or Ebay. Their are more colours of the lip glazes and more sets. I love these colours they're great for winter because their warmer.


 
The brown one is- Chocolate
The pinky peach one is- Apricot
The goldy creamy one is- creme bouquet


They glide on easily and are not too sticky. I mean compared to some glosses these are very sticky but I don't mind sooo much. You twist the bottom and on the little brush the product rises up. This makes my lips look lovely and the pigmentation is AMAZING.

Lots of Love,
Lucy xoxo

Beauty tips and tricks: Cucumber cooling pads!

Hey everyone,
                     Right so I'm planing to do 2 of the 'Beauty tips and tricks' posts a week so that's it done for this week. So today I'm sharing the tip of cucumber pads. Michelle Phan did a great video on this if it sounds good watch it below..














I made these they're sooo nice and refreshing. Not to mention my puffy eyes were GONE! An easier way to get rid of puffy eyes is to just slice some cucumber and put it over the eyes. They reduce the swelling or black bags under the eyes. Cucumbers are the most wonderful and natural eye pads you can find for yourself. The puffiness and the tiredness in your eyes may just leave you, if you do this in a relaxed fashion. These natural eye pads do wonders after a long days work.


Lots of love,

Beauty tips and tricks: Baby powder as a dry shampoo?

Hey everyone,
                     So I have now started 2 new series 'Books for Beautiful Brains' and 'Beauty tips and tricks'. This series was inspired by MissLV an amazing blogger I'm not trying to copy her. Right, so the tip is to put Baby powder in your hair as dry shampoo. This really works when your hair needs a clean. The only thing is you need to rub the powder in so your hairs not white. It doesn't feel chalky on my type of hair which is a good thing. You only need a little bit not too much.

Lots of Love,

Books for Beautiful Brains: Catherine Macphail Missing

Hey everyone,
                    I want to try to do a series of this 'Books for Beautiful Brains' thing. It's just a book review but a cute title why not. Also, you will know MissLV the fab and kind beauty blogger has started a daily tip post I want to do one of them weekly as well (sorry for stealing the idea). The book I'm reviewing is Missing by Catherine Macphail she's Scottish as well like mwah!

Judge the book by it's cover- It looks almost spooky and sinister which would probably pull me in to read it.

First Page- The main character Maxine is tempered and moody or competitive but  something happened in her life to make it that way. The author wrote it well!

Back of the Book- It's a thriller and sounds good and like it's based on a true story.

End- Haven't read it yet :S will and to one of my posts if I finish it.



Last words- Very good book! It got me thinking which I like instead of knowing what's going to happen. Seems as if it's based on a true story....But that would be very creepy.


Lots of Love,

Vaseline to make your lashes longer True or False?

Hey everyone,
                     Okay so for Saturday movie night we watched 'Angus,thongs and perfect snogging' and yes when the dad moves Georgia puts Vaseline on her lashes to make them longer. Once the movie was done I got my Vaseline pot and started doing this. It looked so weird because your lashes look white! So it was night time and I slept with white lashes. When I woke my lashes weren't white it must have absorbed in. My lashes are  very short and I could see they were longer. I did it again in the morning so if I keep doing it my lashes will be beautifully long. Who needs peptalash (btw that doesn't work) Vaseline is works well.


With absolutely no mascara on.







Lots of Love,
