Motivate Me Monday

I've decided that Monday mornings are the worst. For work, clothes and make up it's just not great, and every Monday my diet plan is killed off.

So on this day every week I'm going to post a few motivational picture to get me (and hopefully you) into the right mind set for having a good weight loss week.

Electric Nails

For a while now I've been obsessed with Nails Inc's Baker Street blue nail polish but then I came across this beauty from Miss Sporty I was more than excited. 

A creamy, opaque formula with a vibrant, electric blue finish, Pop Fiction is the perfect shade for summer. 

This colour really pops and gets noticed, with me having compliments given left, right and center about this stunning colour. Here it is with one layer and then finished with a second coat for all over colour. 

You can get your hands on this from Superdrug. 

June Glossybox

This month is all about getting that 'Summer Look' and there are some real treats in store to getting you in the holiday mood.

Here's what I got in my box this month...

Monu Professional Skincare Hand & Nail Cream

I'm not a massive fan of hand creams. Anything that makes your hands feel heavy, slimy or greasy is just a big no no for me. But surprisingly I quite like this one, with a strong scent of lavender and lemon, this hand cream absorbs almost immediately into my skin. It's as if nothing was applied 20 seconds later. AMAZING. No horrible oily feel on my hands with all the benefits on essential oils, Glycerin, Coconut and Wheat Germ for anti-aging and softening results. You've won me over Monu.

GOSH Growth Mascara

Tempting you with a 2 in 1 product, this Growth Mascara from GOSH provides you with a wearable jet black formula that uses SymPeptide XLash (a special growth activator) to give you visibly longer lashes in just 2 weeks. The brush consists of both long and short bristles to give you both length and volume as you wear it. I'll be trying this out to see if it delivers the results.

Organic Surge Shine Boost Conditioner

Organic Surge is a company I've heard of but never used before and after trying this Shine Boost Conditioner I'm now sat here wandering why I never have. Feeding my hair with a blend of organic grapefruit and citrus essential oils, not only does this conditioner smell amazing but it does the job. It detangled my hair and left it feeling softer than ever. I never want this to run out!

Figs & Rouge Cherry Blossom Lip Balm

This is probably my favourite in this month's Glossybox. I've wanted to use Figs & Rouge for some time now and what better way to start than with this gorgeous lip balm. With a slight pink tint, this balm goes on smooth and lasts for ages. I can honestly say that I will be buying this again once it runs out, it's now a staple in my make up bag.


MeMeMe Cosmetics Long Lasting Nail Gloss in Elegant

Always a fan of a new nail polish, Elegant from MeMeMe Cosmetics is a high shimmer, gold metallic nail polish and after just one coat you get the above results. This shade is perfect for summer and I can see myself painting this onto my feet soon.

Friday Favourites #8

This week you'll know that I went to see the gorgeous Rihanna for her Diamonds World Tour in Manchester. 

When I was there I was loving watching the variety of fashion and styles going on, with everyone having their own take on the trends of now. This is probably one of my favourite things to do EVER! Rihanna has a lot of well dressed fans I can tell you that.

Whilst I was crowd spotting, I spotted a girl wearing a gorgeous leopard print top that I knew was from Topshop. I found this gorgeous dress in the same print and have fallen head over heels for it. So I've based this weeks Friday Favourites around this bold print, I hope you love it as much as I do.

1. Animal Print Ladder Back Dress - Topshop
2. Boxy Zip Clutch - Accessorize
3. Revlon Nail Art Moon Candy in Orbit - Boots
4. New Look Scour Platform Sandals - ASOS
5. Whistles Clover Key Ring - ASOS
6. Double Row Chain Bracelet - ASOS

I would wear this outfit for a cocktail night with my girlies 

A Night With Rihanna

Last night was one amazing night! 

I'm a big, big fan of Rihanna and I finally got to see her on her Diamonds tour in Manchester. 

For this night there was one thing I just had to wear. The Ririwoo lipstick from her own collection at MAC.

 I started by applying this Black Red lip liner from Lord & Berry to give my lips a two toned finish. 

I then applied Ririwoo to my lips and blended with a brush. 

For my eyes I used the Naked Basics palette from Urban Decay to get a neutral smokey eye that won't detract from the lips. 

I then lined my lids with a big flick and finished with a set of Katy Perry eye lashes. 

Big hair was necessary and with my Babyliss Boutique Wavers I got finished my look. I wore one of my favourite dresses from ASOS with black strappy heels from Primark. 

The night started with an impressive set from GTA and then we waited for Rihanna to arrive. 

The entire night was so amazing, singing from her new Unapologetic album as well as her biggest hits like Umbrella, Only Girl and We Found Love. I didn't want it to end!!
