MILANI Color Statement Lipstick Swatches.

Milani Lipstick Collection 

So I have been very lucky to be able to get hold of some MILANI color statement lipsticks.
 I got some sent over from USA during a box swap and also a friend of mine went to America and got me some more as I loved the ones I had so much already so yep, I wanted more! 


I have 7 in total and absolutely love each shade I own. The formula is very creamy and the pigmentation is incredible! You get full colour coverage that lasts for 4 to 5 hours, during this time I do tend to put a clear gloss over the top as I find my lips can feel a little dry.

I love the packaging of these lipsticks they look much more like a high end product. I would never of thought they would cost just over $5 each, such a bargain.

 12 (Flamingo Pose) 14 (Rose Hip) 15 (Hot Pink Rage)
17 (Plumrose) 19 (Raspberry Rush) 33 (Rose Amour) 34 (Violet Volt)


Without flash
12, 14, 15, 17, 19, 33, 34.

Overall I love these Milani lipsticks & recommend giving one a try if you can get hold of them.

NEW The Glamour Beauty Edit July

Latest In Beauty Glamour Edit Box. 

So I know a lot of you probably already have this beauty box but I am so excited I just had to write about it! I have never had a beauty box before because I have never really thought they are worth the money but boy was I wrong! The Latest in beauty boxes cost either £14.95 or £16.95 with free delivery. This one was £16.95 but it has the total value of £86.15 I know...crazy right!!? 

The box it's self is very girlie and looks cute as well as being jam packed full of amazing products! It's also a great size to use for storing make-up items in, I think Ill use this for some of my favourite lipsticks or lip balms so they are all in one place. 


So inside the box you get 9 different products of what only 2 of are smaller sizes where as the rest I belive are normal sized. 
  1. Rimmel Sun Shimmer Instant Tan BB Skin Perfector 125ml £6.99 
  2. Velvotan The Original Tanning Mitt £2.99 
  3. Bourjois Cream Blusher Shade 3 £7.99
  4. Crabtree & Evelyn Nail Lacquer shade 'petal pink' 15ml £6.00
  5. DHC Deep cleansing Oil 30ml £4.50
  6. Toni & Guy Volume Plumping Whip 90ml £7.19
  7. Hawaiian Tropic Satin Protection Ultra Radiance Sun Lotion 100ml SPF30 £6.49
  8. Magnifibres Brush-On False Lashes £18.95
  9. Illamasqua Glamore Lipstick shade 'tease' £18.50
I'm so excited to try all of these, as you can see its fantastic value for money considering two of the items are both worth more than the price you pay for the whole package it's self. I am looking forward to using the Illmasqua Lipstick the most as I don't own one yet and it's from the new collection 'Glamore Nudes' 


Will you be purchasing one of these boxes?

My First D&G Lipstick.

Dolce & Gabbana Passion Duo Gloss Fusion Lipstick Review 

Hey lovelies! So it was my 21st Birthday a couple of weeks ago and I got a Dolce & Gabbana lipstick in shade Poetic as a gift and I love it!! I love the gold packaging it looks sleek and feels expensive. In the middle of the creamy lipstick is a shiny gloss..such a great idea! The pigmentation of this is just amazing I only need one swipe across my lips and wow, just wow.





As you can see its lovely and shiny, It's so moisturising and feels very light on the lips. I forget I even have lipstick on whilst wearing this until I then have a drink and Its all around my cup...oops!
It lasts around 2 maybe 3 hours but also stains the lips so you don't always have to reapply as it leave a gorgeous red tint.
This is my first ever makeup product by Dolce & Gabbana and I'm highly impressed with it, I would recommend these lipsticks especially if your more of a shiny lipstick kind of girl like me :) 



Would you like to see more of my birthday goodies?

Charles Worthington Volume & Bounce

Charles Worthington Volume & Bounce Texturising Spray Review.


So after reading everyone going mad for this product I decided to give it a try. My hair is thick and wavy but lacks volume when I style it. I have used this product a few times and I really don't like it, Okay so it gives my hair the volume I wanted and does look really nice but after applying I found it made my hair really knotty and so hard to brush through. The first time I thought I had just used too much so I gave it another go and used less, still had the same problem. It's such a shame because I love the way it makes my hair look. It really does do what it says on the can I just wish it didn't make my hair feel so gritty.

It has a gorgeous fresh scent so that's a plus and you get a good amount in a bottle 150ml for £6.99 here. I will try to keep using this so I can get used to the feeling of it in my hair but definitely won't be repurchasing. 

I can't say I would recommend this product because I'm not 100% happy with it.

Have you tried this? What do you think of it?

Favourite Summer Nail Polishes. MAVALA


So I have a love for Mavala Nail polishes and I thought I would share with you all what ones I love to wear during the summer. The thing I love about these are the size and amount you get in a bottle, now I know alot of people don't like how there isn't much product inside because you only get 5ml, however I LOVE this because I'm always buying new colours and this means I never finish a polish off before it starts going gloopy and nasty.
The packaging is small, cute and simple with the names & numbers on the front of the bottle.£4.50 each here


From the left -  SOUTH BEACH PINK, FROZEN BERRY, VEGAS PINK, JAIPUR.



I only ever need two coats of Mavala polish.The brush isn't the best but you still get a smooth finish. 

These are just 4 of my favourites to wear in the summer,they are all bright and such pretty girly colours. The orange on the right I usually wear on my feet as it makes them look tanned whereas the two pinks and lilac shade I tend to wear on my hands so I can show the gorgeous colours off. If you haven't tried these yet then I would totally recommend giving them a go, you never know you might fall in love just like I did. 



What are your favourites from Mavala?

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick | Fuchsia Shock | Review




 I'm a huge fan of Revlon products, nothing I have tried has every disappointed me.
I decided to try out the super lustrous lipstick and very happy that I decided to pick this shade "Fuchsia Shock"  its absolutely beautiful!
The thing I love about this product is that you can either go with one swipe for a subtle look or three swipes for a more intense colour. The pigmentation of this is incredible however it lasts about 1 maybe 2 hours depending on what your doing. This really doesn't bother me as I'm always reapplying lipstick out of habit even if the staying power is great. 


The swatch above is 3 swipes on the inside of my arm...how beautiful? 

My teeth literally look a shade lighter when I wear this! The price for this little beauty is so affordable compared to some high end brands that have the same staying power and pigmentation. They are £7.49 here Revlon is sometimes on offer at boots (UK) I'm defiantly keeping my eyes open for the next 3 for 2 offer to be on so I can grab myself some more shades. 


What shades do you have?
