Weekly Updates.







My gorgeous friend Sarah has lent me her Pentax ME 35mm camera to play around with, which I am totes grateful for as I broke my favourite film camera in Brighton last month (and then threw it on the ground in a tantrum) I haven't had a play with it yet but I'm so excited. There's nothing I love more than a bit of film photography! If you're interested, you can check out my flickr.

It was my day off today, so I had a little wander around town. Actually, I ran. I hate shopping and I'm really impatient - I want the clothes I like to come to me, not have to dig them out. Anyway, I had a little browse in Superdrug and picked up some Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation, which I've heard lovely things about. I've always had MAC or Clinique foundations so to get this is going to be a change but it'll be good to have something that costs half the price that I can wear when I'm just popping out the the shops or something.
I also picked up a couple of Sleek True Colour Lipsticks, one of which I have to take back as someone has used it and put it back on the shelf. Its sealed, but they opened the bottom! Gutted. Post on this soon.

I saw a poster for this Topshop event in store today, WAH nails are coming to town!! Well, Leeds anyway. I'm not sure about everywhere else. I'm so excited! Although I have most of the Topshop makeup collection so I couldn't buy 3 things - there's not a lot else I need/want. I will have a better look on thursday on my next day off, but I would love to get my nails done by WAH nails.

Lastly, I have a new Youtube video up & I'm making an FAQs page because I seem to get asked the same questions a lot.

  1. This lipstick is amazing. I've been waiting to review it for ages but my camera hates taking pictures of it. I wore it with my MAC lipstick and it lasted 7 hours whilst I was at work with no touchups, so it's definitely worth wearing!

  6. AS IF someone used it and put it back, that's so gross. Hopefully they'll let you swap it over

  7. Oh man I wonder what a "complimentary appointment" actually consists of. Eitherway seeing all of your reviews on Topshop make up/my need for a new blusher brush/pining to get WAH nails will lead to me popping into Topshop this weekend!

  13. I love the Bourjois foundation and Collection 2000 concealer, so good for the price. I missed WAH nails when they came to Newcastle's Topshop, next time I'm in London I definitely need to visit the Dalston shop.
