I said I'd let you know!

Hello everyone!

A few posts ago I said I'd let you know about a few products I've been trying out recently, so first up is;

(JohnLewis.com)

The Laura Mercier bronzer (in the colour Dune Bronze.) This brand is fast becoming a hot favourite of mine, the packaging is a sophisticated purpley mauve number. It's a matte blend, that glides on and can easily add so much definition to your make up. I seriously love it. It's a handy size to fit in your handbag for a touch up on those cheek lines! 

This bronzer is on the slightly higher price level of £26 but it'll last you forever. 

I can't tell you how much I recommend sampling the Laura Mercier products, you'll definitely find something you love. 

I love you, Laura!

Lipsy - glam

Hello!

I love the handbag size perfume samples! And recently got one from Lipsy's range. They're such a good way of finding a new scent, saves money making sure you definitely like it! 

My new find is the Glam perfume from the lipsy range. 

(Boots.com)

What a nice bottle! I'd say this is an everyday perfume for me, it's a strong scent and quite floral. I definitely suggest you have a sniff! 

Particularly as boots have an offer of 30ml for £12 at the moment.

New year!

Happy new year to you! 

This year as with every year I'm making resolutions - that I hope to keep. I'm not going to list them all here but one I have decided is read more! 

I'm always feeling I need to for various reasons, relaxing, discussion, education and so on. 

I started nice and lightly with Debby Holt's 

Ex wife's survival guide, it's nice and light reading and I would very much recommend if this festive period has worn you out! 

I'm now on George Elliot's 1984!

Lookalike

If you haven't heard of Kate Spade, you're missing out. 

Classically designed purses, bags and all manner of things are available at www.katespade.com but the price range may be slightly out of most of our budgets.

So I've found a few little pieces at H&M that will satisfy your Kate Spade urges. 

(hm.com) £2.99

(hm.com) £7.99

How cute are these?

First up is a teeth whitening kit :- 

(superdrug.com)

This is from Superdrug and it's the fourteen day kit, it's on offer at the moment at £5.99 but out of stock, so hopefully it'll be back on that price! (normally £8.99) and the reviews online are 5 star!

This primer is fast becoming my go to staple for nights out or day to day!
