I have been known to partake in a spot of shopping. Ok so that’s the understatement of the century but I have been quite good lately. Here’s a little haul video… (products listed below) http://youtu.be/CIMQtOzvZgE Products I mentioned:Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer...

October favourites time! There are quite a few this month. I also came across quite a few products that I didn’t rate at all, maybe I should make a disappointments video too. I find those useful, let me know if you do. For now, here are my current favourite make-up and beauty products… Links...

I’m always grateful when the sales assistant hands me a €7.50 off voucher at the till in Boots. However, the voucher is for No.7 products. I’m really not a fan (although their lipstick in Starshell is one of my favourites). When I was in college I seemed to be in Boots a few times a...

NYX Lipsticks. I only have Paris and Flower, both of which I love just as much as any of my MAC pinks. I wanted to try a few more. These lippies are all from BeautyFragrances.co.uk.

I have been using NYC Show Time Volumising Mascara as part of an affordable mascara comparison project (more on that later). I have been quite impressed with this one so far.   This is a great every day mascara. It coats my lashes evenly, doesn’t make my lashes look like plastic (pet...

If you watched my recent product rave video you will have heard me rant a little about an Isa Dora Jelly Kiss lipstick I have recently fallen for. It’s a beautiful pink (what a shocker) in 53 Pink Parfait. You can find swatches below and photos of what it looks like on me for reference. And...

I mentioned in my latest haul video that I picked up three NYX lip pencils whilst in the US. I had actually intended to buy more but the local Ulta didn’t stock the entire line, boo hoo. I had 8 shades to choose from, none of which were neutrals. I eventually settled on these three. Dolly Pink,...

Continuing with my pattern of buying all things blue, don’t ask me why, I picked up a Milani Easy liner in Blue Eye. I must have really been feeling the blue while I was in Chicago but at least it’s a little different to the countless navy eye liners I possess. This one is a little brighter. It’s...

My post this morning was on the Idol Eyes Creme Pencil from Wet n Wild in Distress. I decided to follow up my review and swatches with a Face of the Day post. I meant to post this last week, oops! I wanted a no make-up look today with the exception of the gorgeous dark blue pencil, which I used as...

I picked up quite a few bargains during my stay in the US at Christmas (haul video part one will be up this evening on my YouTube channel). Quite a few of your recommended that I pick up an Idol Eyes Creme Shadow Pencil from Wet n Wild. You were right, I completely needed this one :) I chose number...

I love trying out different concealers. Mainly because I’m searching for the elusive ‘affordable yet amazing’ one. I know, it’s a lot to expect but I think I may have found one that comes close. I have using Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer for the past week. Not only am I...

I have come across two great finds this week. Thought I’d share! Find #1 I picked up a very cheap gloss today that reminded me of a MAC Dazzleglass. This rather surprising find came from Penneys / Primark.   It’s called Gilt and it’s a shimmery, sheer gloss with gold...

As you know I’m in Chicago at the moment. Thought I would post a little update on my trip so far…that being the shopping really :)   Outlet shopping Firstly, I am quite proud of myself. I went to Aurora yesterday to visit the outlet. Yes, I hear you. Amy in an outlet? Surely that...

I had a few requests for do a follow up with some swatches on the e.l.f Minty Lipgloss. The shade I have is Houston.     A closer look at the shimmery particles…   On the lips it’s a sheer pink shade with a touch of Magenta. The colour in the tube had me all...

Quite a few of you have asked I was getting on the e.l.f Makeup Mist & Set. I decided to put together a little review post! First to the product claims (from e.l.f website) “Keep your makeup in place all day with a radiance boosting invisible hold.The invigorating mist moisturizes...
