Loveable Luxuries Palette from Primark




I love Primark, for many many reasons. 

But one of the main reasons I love Primark, is that it always surprises me. I always find something that I didn't go in there for.. and it's never an expensive tangent either. 

So my bonus buy this time round was the Loveable Luxuries Eye Palette for a whopping... £2.50! 

It has 8 very pretty, very girly and summery shades within them ranging from a vibrant glittery purple to a cool, angelic green. Considering this was £2.50, the quality of these are lovely too. They go on really well and blend beautifully. Really pleased with this and how cute is the packaging?


















Lemon Ends

Is anybody else out there as obsessed with the colour yellow as I am?

Yellow coats
Yellow bikinis
Yellow shoes
& Yellow nails....

I found this Barry M nail polish on Xtras for super cheap, so I couldn't help myself. It's really bright, creamy and super yellow! Perfect for summer.





 I'm thinking some sunflower or daisy nail art will go down beautifully this summer and this will certainly be used for it. What do you think?

Fresh Amour

As a beauty blogger, you do tend to build quite a collection of make up and that sometimes, items can get neglected. Today's post is about a product I had totally forgotten about until I went rummaging through my make up drawer the other day. 


As you can see, it's not looking it's best, even if it is a MAC.





Fresh Amour showed up at just the right time really. It's Springtime and that usually means pretty pastels start to come out of the wood work, so this lilac mattene lipstick is perfect!





I know this shade looks a little crazy on me, but I really love it. This might be more wearable played down with a two tone look. Still gorgeous though.

Penny's

Ooo I have another treat for you! 

I know you loved the daisy sunnies from Primark I wrote about the other week, so check out these beauties! 




I love this colour at the moment and the floral print just finishes them off perfectly! I got this pair from Penny's (Primark's Irish shop) and they were a bargain at €1.50!!





What do you think? I wish I'd had a little more spending money at Penny's, the beauty department there was just incredible! What a beauty bloggers paradise that was!!

Darling Pink

I went to the Trafford Center on Saturday and although I was very good with my spending, I did decide to treat myself a little bit.

I bought myself some plain black plim soles for £7.99 from H&M and when I was in the queue I spotted a light pink matte lipstick, so I quickly grabbed it as I went up to pay. I don't regret this at all, this lipstick is gorgeous, it's so summery and I love wearing it with my blonde hair. They had a few different shades so I think I'll definitely be going back for the rest, at £4.99 each how can I argue with that. 









When you first apply it, it's quite subtle, but with the power of layering the pink really pops. What do you think??

MUA single eye shadow



When I came across the MUA range at Superdrug I was so so so excited. Supreme quality make up at the fraction of the price - hello beauty bloggers dream.

So I spotted this gorgeous burnt bronze shadow that's just dying to be played with. Stunning metallic finish, Pearl 30 blends easy and gives you long lasting results, for just a pound I've got to say that this is just AMAZING. 








I'm going to see Rihanna on Wednesday night and this will complete my look for the Barbadian songstress.  I'm so excited! 

Have you ever tried anything from the MUA range
