Hello lovelies, I'm not going to go into too much detail about what I bought as they will all have there own separate post apart from Eeyore of-course, every time I go to Birmingham I have to get little man a soft toy to add to his Disney collection, I was torn between Eeyore or Roo but went with Eeyore, finding that Oscar doesn't even like him sadly *inserts cry emoji* no love lost though as I love him and have a snuggle buddy why the other half is working away. He is super soft and fills a bit of an empty space in the big king size bed aha. I have had my eyes on Essie's Fiji and a Tanya Burr nail polish for ages opting for Midnight Sparkles, such a gorgeous sparkly purple shade wait till you see it in an up coming 'whatsonmynailswednesday'. I also went to Birmingham thinking of buying the Estee Lauder Night Serum but that would set me back £48 and meant scrimping on other beauty products so I saved myself a few pennies and opted for the Kiehls Midnight Recovery Concentrate, I have heard rave reviews about this product so I really hope it lives up to them, Amy also picked up this so I can't wait to read her review too. I then purchased a few goodies from Lush but they're a surprise you will have to wait and see what's in there but no surprise to you all I did buy another Comfortor as me and Dan love this. Then lastly I got a couple of Mac purchases in Selfridges, I blame Aimee and Clare for the lipstick 'Crosswires' even though it is stunning, you enablers and I always wanted to try the brush cleaner so I finally got one. I am a bit gutted I didn't pick up a Charlotte Tilbury lipstick but there's always time, Aimee picked up some gorgeous bits from Charlottes stand I had major green eyes also Sarah's Selfridges bags that girl knows how to shop! If you saw my Selfridges wishlist you will have saw I didn't get anything of there but I am happy with what I did buy, I did actually try the Chanel foundation out at the counter and it wasn't for me at all, not enough coverage for me, thank god I did 'try before I buy' this time. What would you have bought in Selfridges, anything you have your eye on?

A month of lipsticks, January 9th 2013
9 January 2014
I know its a paint but it has a finish of a glossy lipstick. Super pigmented and these paints that Sleek have brought out you can mix two shades together to make a different colour which I think is super cool! If you fancied a totally different look one day. It is a pinky purple shade and lasts for hours. This stayed put on my lips through a Chinese one night with drinks also. It is quite an out there shade but most people could pull this off I think.
As you can see super glossy, highly pigmented and gorgeous colour. Comes in a handy tube that will fit in the smallest of make up bags and handy for on the go. You need to give it a good shake before you squeeze it out as it can be quite watery but blends well. A different way to put lipstick on your lips than an original tube. More hygienic if a friend is trying it out.
Here's a hand swatch for you.
The colour here reminds me of a Mac lipstick but I can't think which one? I would highly recommend these though! Cheap and sufficient. If you want a good full pigmented product that will last you a good few hours you will love these! I got this in a glossy box but you can find sleek in your nearest Superdrug.
Would you brave this colour?

I think this shade of lipstick is very seductive, it makes you feel sexy from one swipe over your lips. A very opaque deep cherry like red. You can't beat a red lipstick anyway and there known for making you look sexy and confident. For only £2.99 an absolute bargain.
It last's a good few hours on me, not scented so no nasty cheap smells that you can sometimes get of a cheap lipstick. A satin finish. Whether you have an inner 'Goth' in you or just a fan of deep reds this maybe the colour for you! A very gorgeous shade on your lips to have the men melting for a kiss.
Here it is also swatched on my hand...
If you like the look of this you can find them on the Superdrug website where I picked mine up, a great way to build your lipstick collection up for a good price.

Mini beauty haul
17 April 2013
Hello lovelies, i recently did a little beauty shop in boots and superdrug and this is what i brought...

I brought three new lip products,

From top to bottom,
MUA - Power Pout Colour Intense Tint and Balm.
To me this is like a dupe to the clinique chubby sticks and revlon just bitten balm stain, it has a similar scent to the revlon one and applies the same as both of the others but i actually find this one a lot more moisturising! For a fraction of the others prices too it was a great find! Although the stain doesn't last long on your lips it lasts a fair bit what do you want for £3? I really loved the colour too i got it in rendevous it sounds quite saucy haha! It's a beautiful colour in the near future i will update this with lip pictures but my poor chin has come out in a huge breakout! I wouldn't want to upset anyone.
Revlon - Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain.
It has a chubby pen like applicator which is really easy to guide along your lips like i said above though it is similar to the chubby sticks and my new MUA find! This is a gorgeous colour i got it in 020 Lovesick and this balm stain does really stain your lips it lasted me a few hours! Even through eating a yummy Chinese. They come in a gorgeous array of colours too. They are retailed at £7.99 at boots and i made the most of boots 3 for 2 offer!

Rimmel - Apocalips.
Yet another lip laquer to add to my on going collection i absolutely love these!! I have already done a review on these here;
"http://paigewallbankxo.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/apocalips-review.html"
I then got some face products
MUA - Undress Your Skin Shimmer Highlighter
This product is for your face, upper cheekbones or nose, wherever you like to highlight on your face personally. I use it on my upper cheekbones to highlight those and my upper lip. It has a gorgeous shimmer to it but not too much just right. I love MUA as a brand because they do such good quality products for little prices! Very affordable i really like this product and it only set me back £3! You can find this and many other great finds on there website here: http://www.muastore.co.uk/index.php/face/undress-your-skin/highlighting-powder


MUA - Undress Me Two Palette
This is the best eye shadow palette you can get for £4, its been known to duping the Urban Decay Naked Palette there colours are very pigmented although the matte ones not so pigmented but fantastic quality, i love my neutral colours on my eyes i always go for these colours and have used this palette religiously since I've brought it i did use the undress me palette before this but as soon as i saw this I knew I had to have it! It also has a black in for a great smoky eye effect another fave of mine when your going out for the night or feeling a bit daring. I would defo try this out if you haven't already its a fantastic bargain with great quality product inside.

Revlon - Nearly Naked Foundation

A new foundation that a lot of beauty gurus have been raving about so i thought i had to jump on the band wagon and give it a try! As i brought my boots haul online i wasn't sure on the colours so i chose natural beige and sadly its a little to dark for my pale skin but will be great when i have a spray tan! I did love the product even though it doesn't have a pump but that seems to annoy everyone about the product you don't know how much product is going to come out! I may even get a pump for it. It has a sheer cover though i like to build mine up a bit and its great you can build it up to get the coverage you desire. The other thing i loved about this product after buying this online not only getting a great deal with getting the 3 for 2 offer i got this gorgeous free poster! Win Win.

Hope you enjoyed my mini beauty haul
