Make-up inspiration - The Kardashians

Hi everyone :)

So i've not been blogging so much because i'm back at school and the work is just crazy! So I thought i'd just show some pictures of people who's make-up I love!

I know people always talk about The Kardashian make-up, but I don't care! I love it, and wanted to share some of my favourite make-up :)

Enjoy!

These girls have the most amazing skin, and the make-up is so amazing! I love it :)

Thanks everyone :)

Haul!

Hi everyone :)

So i've been buying lots of little things recently, so I thought i'd just put them all together and do one big Haul! Yay!

I'm also on a one month shopping ban to stop me from spending all my money! Haha, so this will be the last haul for a month. :(:(:(

So here they are!

Sally Hansen Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

RRP: £7.99

I love this! It's great to use for a base coat and a top coat! It gives your nails a lovely shine, and keeps the nail polish on! It also makes my nails feel a bit stronger, and chips off a bit less!

Sally Hansen Acetone free Nail Polish Remover

RRP: £ 2.29

I have to say that this is one of my favourite nail polish removers. I mean, they're all pretty similar, but some make my nails feel really horrible, but I don't find that this has the same effect!

Ms Manicure ClipSnipAway Nail Care Set

RRP: £ 5.99

I loove this hand cream! Normally hand creams that come in cheap little manicure sets aren't very nice, but I love this one! It smells... AMAZING.

I do quite like this, it softens up my cuticles so I can push them down more easily!

In the pack I also got a 6 way buffer, but I won't bore you with the picture of it at every single angle, So I will just show you this one side of it!

You get some cuticle pushers in the pack as well to keep those cuticles in tact!

Last but not least, the last thing you get in the back is this little nail clipper to trim down those nails!

This pack is REALLY good value for money, and you get so much for your money, so it's a nice little cheap set to help you to give yourself a manicure!

L'OREAL Kids Sweet Pear Tangle Tamer

Ok, I know i'm not a Kid. BUT I get really bad knots in my hair when I come out the shower and it's so hard to brush through my hair, and this works really well, and it smells LOVELY. A really strong pear smell. Love it!

Lee Stafford Blow Dry Wonder Spray

RRP: £5.99

This is supposed to reduce the time it takes to blow dry your hair. Honestly, I found that it doesn't really change the time it takes at all! Maybe like a minute or something, but not really worth it!

Dove Summer Glow

RRP: £3.99

In my opinion, this is the best cheap fake tan you get! It always comes out really evenly, and because it's a gradual tanner, I just use a medium to dark colour, but only use it like once, rather than every day! It always works out really well so I always come back to this one!

L'OREAL Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning wipes

RRP: £2.99

I use these on my face because the dove summer glow clogs up my pores and that's never a good thing! So I like to use these on my face to keep my skin looking nice and tanned!

Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid Foundation

I bought this in a shade that is a lot darker than my natural colour so that I can wear it when I'm wearing fake tan! I always buy expensive foundation in my natural shade, and then when i'm fake tanned I don't have anything that can match my colour, so I thought i'd buy this cheap one!

LUSH Bubblegum Lip scrub

RRP: £3.99

O.M.G. This is the nicest lip scrub i've ever tried! It smells so amazing! Because it's made of sugar and jojoba oil, it's supposed to be edible, but I find that if I do eat it off my lips it leaves my lips feeling kind of sticky, so I try to avoid eating it, and just wipe it off!

Radox Shower Smoothie

I got this free in Company Magazine, but thought i'd just put this in here! It's a slightly smaller bottle than what you'd get if you went out and bought this. I've not tried this yet, but it smells amazing!

YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara

RRP: £21.00

Wow. This is thee most amazing mascara i've ever used! It smells amazing, which is rare in mascaras! It thickens, lengthens and gives an amazing false lash effect without making your eyelashes feel dry and brittle. I don't think I will ever buy another mascara. It's the best by far! So I definitely recommend!

Bourjois Liner Feuture Liquid eyeliner and Bourjois Pencil Sharpener

(Sorry Image wouldn't upload.)

Ugh. I hate this. I love it at first, but then after TWO days. It dried up. I had to press so hard to get it to work, and then it got all messy and, UGH! I really don't recommend.

I was actually going to get a Benefit Pencil sharpener so that I could sharpen my benefit pencils, but this was wide enough and I just bought it! I'm not sure if it's cheaper or not, but I just bought it anyways, and it does the job!

So that was my BIG collective haul for you all, and I hope you enjoyed, and HOPEFULLY we will get up to 100 followers soon, Yay!

Thanks everyone :)

Hair, Hair, Hair!

Hi everyone :)

So I was going to do a post on my hair and products and all that, but I don't really have a Shampoo that I like!

My Scalp is really sensitive, and can get really sore so easily! So I have to be quite careful with what I use on it!

My hair is quite thin, but I have a lot of hair if that makes sense? Like I have loads of hair, but it's all quite thin? So I like volumizing products!

I do highlight my hair about 3 times a year. I've only highlighted my hair 4 times so far, but I am sticking with it! My hair naturally is pretty blonde, so this just really brightens it, and lightens any dark bits! So I do sometimes go for blonde shampoos.

Due to my hair being quite thin, product can occasionally build up in it, and it can look a little oily!

So here's where you come in!

I need a new shampoo and conditioner once I finish my latest purchase! (Which btw is BIG by Lush. It's...average.) I am open to most price ranges! So suggest anything and everything! I will give you a quick rundown of some hair products I can remember trying!

- Aussie Aussome Hair Volume

- Herbal Essences Fresh Balance

- John Freida Sheer Blonde

- LUSH Big

- Head and Shoulders Citrus fresh. (I keep a bottle of this all the time because in my quest for the perfect Shampoo, if my scalp starts to react, this clears it up! But I don't like it's affect on my hair:S!)

- Aussie Smooth Mate

- Aveda Shampure

-Aveda Scalp Remedy

-Aveda Rosemary and Mint

I have tried ALOT more, But I really can't remember! I have to say that i LOVE the Aveda products, but it's quite hard to find, and a bit pricey, but I am willing to try alot of different products, So leave your suggestions below (Pretty Please :)) and I will defo try as many as I can!

Thanks everyone :)x

Ins and Outs No.1

Hi everyone :)

So i've been a bit of a bad blogger :( Sorry!

REMEMBER: Enter my contest here: http://glossyglamour13.blogspot.com/2010/08/60-followers-giveaway-open.html

Anyways, I couldn't be bother taking photo's for Hauls, and reviews and things, so I just decided to do this blog post for the first time :)

IN!

1. Long Lie ins :)

It's so nice to still be on the Summer holidays and be able to go to bed whenever and get up whenever, I love it!

2. Milk Coffee

I actually didn't even know you could do this till about a month ago, and I love it! It's so much creamier and nicer than normal coffee with water. I LOVE this!

3. iPhone 4

I recently got an iPhone 4, and I love it! Best phone ever. I love it!

4. New Hair

I got my hair cut on thursday, a nicer style, and a new set of lovely blonde highlights! (I was thinking about doing a bit of a blog post about my hair colour, and hair care products)

5. French Manicures

I never really do much and take time with my nails, but I just went and got a french manicure done, and I am obsessed! I love the way she did it, and as soon as I got home I went straight onto boots and ordered lots of nail care things so I can start giving myself manicures. I didn't realise how much nicer your nails look when they're done nicely :)

OUT!

1. Pretty Little Liars Ending :(

In the UK Pretty Little Liars isn't here yet, So I've been watching it online the day after it is aired in America, and I am obssesed with this show! It's so amazing. I read the first book first, and I Loved it, so I went to watch it, and I love it. BUT It's just ended, and won't be back till January 2011 :(.

2. Going Back to School

I'm going back to school on Wednesday, and I'm so annoyed. These holidays have gone so fast, I can't believe it's been 7 weeks since I was at school, it really feels like 2. But oh well! (Was also thinking about doing a back to school Haul kinda thing? Don't really know though...)

3. Big Brother Ending :(

This is the last EVER big brother and a week on Tuesday it will all be over :( No! But then there's Ultimate big brother to watch for an extra two weeks, but then It's really will be over :( I have watched most of the Big Brother series, and I really do love it! I really hope Channel 5 buy it or something!

4. Bad diet!

I feel like i've really been eating like crap this summer, which is not good! I will defo start eating healthier when I go back to school, I need to get away from all the junk food!

5. No good music!

I feel like there has been no real good music released for a while, I feel I have to keep replaying the same songs for like the last month, and I like to change it about a bit!

So they were my Ins and outs! I might make it a Weekly, or Monthly thing... Not too sure yet!

Thanks everyone!

PS, Remember the competition ends tomorow, and I will probably have the winner up Monday Morning, I just need to go to Random.org and type in the numbers and see who wins! I hope your all as excited as me! :)xxxxxxx

Sorry for the lack of posts, but I wanted to give my contest a little bit of time to get going. REMEMBER to enter my contest: http://glossyglamour13.blogspot.com/2010/08/60-followers-giveaway-open.html

I went shopping the other day and picked up some MAC goodies! yay!

Here are all the items I bought!:

(From L-R) MAC Eyeshadow in Sable, MAC Eyeshadow in Naked Lunch, MAC Palette, MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder, and MAC Lipstick in Saint Germain.

MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder

RRP: £17.00

I used this yesterday for the first time and it was amazing! My foundation never stays on, and I used this, and it stayed on so well! All shine from my T-zone was completely gone, and my skin looked amazing all day long! I love this so much! I will definitely repurchase!

MAC Lipstick in the Shade "Saint Germain"

RRP: £12.00

LOVELOVELOVE this! It's such a hot pink with a slight purple undertone, I love it! It's so good, this is my first MAC lipstick. I don't know why, I just have never wanted one. It has such a bright and amazingly pigmented colour, and has really good staying power. Will definitely buy more MAC Lipsticks!

MAC Eye Shadow in "Naked Lunch"

RRP: £9.00

Love this! It's very light, and not too intense. It's such a nice everyday look if you just put it all over the lid, and it's quite nice to use in the inner corner of your eye.

MAC Eye Shadow in "Sable"

RRP: £9.00

It's so nice! It gives a lovely shimmery finish without actually glitter in it! It's very flattering and I love it!

So all in all I love my new MAC products! Well done MAC, you did well :)

Thanks everyone!
