Benefit They're Real Push Up Liner Launch

Today I popped down to Sam McCauley's with Lilliwhiterose for the launch of Benefit's new eye liner and makeup remover. They had a circus themed little party going with popcorn and sweets and other yums, as well as wigged and face-painted Benebabes. The new Push Up Liner is a gel liner with an angled silicone applicator so it won't dry out. You twist the bottom of the pen to get the product to the tip. It's so soft you hardly even feel it on your eyelid and it glides on so easily, application is pretty effortless. I actually...

Current Nail Polish Favourites

As you probably know if you've been reading my blog for a while, nail polish is a serious weakness of mine. I love to paint my nails and tend to do so every two to three days. I do have a few favourites at the moment so I thought I'd share them with you. Left to Right Barry M Gelly - Blueberry This beautiful blue shade is so eye-catching and gives a lovely high shine finish. I wrote a full post on this recently so you can check that out here.

L'Oreal Glam Matte Gloss Review

I'm slightly confused by the whole matte-gloss thing, it all seems like a bit of an oxymoron to me.  However, I recently picked up a L'oreal Glam Matte lipgloss and I am sold on the craze.  I decided on the shade Cherry Crop which is a beautiful vibrant deep pink. It has the same almost florescent pop that Bourjois' Pink Pong Rouge Edition Velvet lipstick has.  It has a heart shaped applicator which picks up the right amount of product and makes for precise, even application.  The formula is...

Hair Care Routine + Hair Growth Tips

This time 2 years ago I cut my hair into a bob, one that barely touched my collar bones. It needed to be done because my hair had been ombred and was in pretty bad condition but I instantly regreted it. After about 2 weeks of enjoying my speedy hair drying time and the novelty of not being able to tie my hair up, I started the process of growing it out. It stayed that length for nearly a year as my hair just doesn't grow. I actually used Mane and Tail shampoo and conditioner for a few month and noticed my hair was growing so quickly....

NOTD: Barry M - Blueberry

A few weeks ago, I was watching the Britain's Got Talent auditions and I spotted Alesha Dixon wearing the most gorgeous blue colour polish on her nails. I needed it.  I then remembered, I had it - or something very similar. The polish in question, is a Barry M Gelly polish in the shade Blueberry.  I was obsessed with this colour last year.  My original bottle had totally dried up so I went out and got a new one. I didn't have the Gelly version last time but I am partial to a glossy nail, so I went with...

Current Lush Favourites

I've had a little (big) obsession with Lush since the beginning of the year. I just really love bath time and like to spice things up a bit with multicoloured fizzing water and solid bubble bath.  On my last trip to Lush, I realised I have a few favourite products that I continue to repurchase so I thought I'd share them with you!  I have three bath bombs, a bubble bar and a massage bar on my list. First up, bath bombs... Big Blue This bath bomb contains lavender and lemon oils, sea salt and little pieces...

The Strangest Drugstore Deal Ever?..

3 for 2? Yes please! Buy one get one free? I'm there! Buy a toothpaste and get a free nail polish that costs 3 times the amount of said toothpaste? Sounds good t- Wait what? On my way to the counter in Boots yesterday, I had to do a triple take when I saw the Colgate Max White Optic toothpastes were on offer. If you purchased a tube for €5.49, you got a free Nails Inc polish worth €16.95. Let that sink in. (I don't remember if it was €15 or €16 but we'll go with €16) You had the choice between a pale pink shade, I don't remember...
