Winter Favourites

I'm not a huge fan of making monthly favourites videos and posts as I don't always buy many new products on a monthly basis, although I do like seeing everyone else's. So I thought I would do seasonal posts about my favourite products, so here are my Winter favourites!

There is lots of info on the products on my video but my winter favourites include

Boots Vitamin E 2 in 1 cleanser
Lush UltraBland cleanser
Soap and Glory For Daily youth
Soap and Glory Daily Smooth body butter
Lush Lemony Flutter cuticle butter
Collection 2000 Glam Crystals
Sleek Cranberry Lipstick

What are your winter faves? Let me know if there are any must haves you think I'm missing out on!

Stay Gorgeous

French Polish - Vamp style!

This weeks nail design is a good match for this weeks Make Up Monday.



Its also an easy cheats way to fresh looking nails! If like me your nail polish wears away at the tips but you don't have time to take it all off and start again, this is the perfect way to revive them!

I already had on a dark red base which had seen better days so I have added a gold tip and then a smaller black tip over the top. This look fits in with the vamp look that is hot right now and also gets a few more days out of your polished talons! You can of course do this design from scratch and swap the colours around too!

The Berry Collection from Sleek

I first saw a sneek preview of the Berry Collection from Sleek cosmetics on the gorgeous Em's blog and so on thursday last week I made sure there was time in my day to pop to superdrug to get my hands on it!



This collection consists of a Blusher, Khol pencil and Lipstick all for an amazing £9.99! The colours are perfectly on trends and great for all those Christmas parties!


The blusher, Fenberry, is a deep rouge which is great for a winter make up look, this is a product where a little goes a long way so be careful how much you apply to your brush! It has a mirror built in the lid so is a great handbag item!

The Mossberry Khol pencil, is a jumbo pencil, its a really nice creamy product, its goes on the skin really smoothly and builds up nicely! With it being a redish brown colour it will warm up your make up look.

The Cranberry lipstick, is amazing! I love this colour, it's a real deep blood red and is niuce and matte on the lips, I wore mine with a clear gloss added over the top for a bit of added glamour!

These are great products to have so I would suggest you rush down to superdrug and pick one up before it's too late!

Stay Gorgeous

Make Up Monday - Vamp it up!

This weeks Make Up Monday is a look that is a key make up trend for the festive season! Vamp is back, dark smoldering eyes and deep red lips are all the rage, add some red nails and you will be seriously glammed up and ready to turn some heads!



I got this look using the Berry Collection from Sleek cosmetics along with a few other make up bag items. This look could be toned down slightly to wear in the day or vamped up as much as you like for the evening!

To see how I got the Vamped up look take a peek at my tutorial video....


I hope you like this look.

Stay Gorgeous

Make Up Monday - Collection 2000 Glam Crystals

These little beauties are perfect for glitzing up your make up look over the festive season! Glam Crystals Eyeliner from Collection 2000 come in 6 different colours, they are so sparkly and are very easy to apply!
 Hustle (top) Le Freak (bottom)
This photo really doesnt show just how sparkly they are but trust me, for all those glitter lovers out there you must go to boots and buy them now!

I purchased mine in boots and at the moment they have a 2 for £5.00 offer on Collection 2000 (I didn't notice if it was everything or selected items!), so now would be the perfect time to stock up! These would also make great secret santa pressies or stocking fillers!

I already have some Make Up Monday tutorials planned for these babies!!

Stay Gorgeous
