My Spring Wishlist..

Mark Hill Raw Hairdryer..

Soooo I haven't posted in a while, I hope everyone had a good christmas!! I have been in desperate need of a hair dryer for over 2 months now, as my old, beloved one decided to blow up on me and ever since been using my mum's hair dryer, so I used christmas as the opportunity to get a new one! I was snooping around in Boots in November to do some christmas shopping and whilst looking at the hair electricals I came across the Mark Hill RAW Professional Style And Shine Pro-Power Dryer, sounds fancy, what caught my eye was the gorgeous leopard print design, I'm a sucker for anything leopard printed, I just had to have it and to top it off it was only £29.99 for limited time only! I've never seen such a cute looking hair dryer in my life!!!!

So on with the pros.. this hair dryer has a salon professional 3m cord, 2 speed settings and 3 heat settings plus a cool shot button for precise styling, 2000W super fast drying with a long life motor for salon professional results, it also has conditioning ionic technology with Tourmaline  which  promises gentle, kinder drying for smooth, shiny, frizz-free hair. The hair dryer comes with 3 different nozzles. One concentrator nozzle to concentrate on small areas of your hair, one volume nozzle to lift and add volume and movement, one airflow concentrator nozzle which is idea for drying curly hair. You also get Style Guide to help you through different styles and what Mark Hill products are good for your hair!

I've used this a few times since christmas, it's super fast which is good for my thick hair and it only takes 10 minutes to dry my hair completely. The only annoying thing about the hair dryer is the fact the nozzles can't be used with maximum heat and maximum speed at the same time as it can cause burning!

The hair dryer does come in many different limited designs such as Zebra, Pink Leopard, Snow Leopard it was really hard to choose which one I wanted but i'm really happy with my choice of design!

What do you think?

I wish you all a happy new year!!!

The Saturdays Magnetism Nail Lacquer...

Sooo I was a bit cheeky and opened up my christmas present from my best friend. I was happy to recieve two shades of The Saturdays Magnetism Nail Lacquer by Fashionista which I've had my eye on for quite a long time. I recieved the lacquers in the shades 'Purple Me Up' by Mollie (which is my favourite Saturday) and 'Silver Notorious' by Frankie, along with the magnet which is sold separately!

The magnet works with the nail lacquer to make an effect, it's so simple and easy too! Basically you shake the bottle to waken the magnetism, apply two coats and whilst the second coat is still wet, hover the magnet over the nail for about 8 seconds to create a wave, marble effect, it's so clever! I can't wait to try the other three shades from the other girls (Una, Rochelle, Vanessa).

LUSH Lip Scrubs..

LUSH is my latest obsession and as there is a new shop which opened in Bristol a few weeks ago I thought it would be rude not to have a nose and purchase something! I've heard some good reviews on the lip scrubs, I was spoilt for choice so picked the two that drawn me in the most, so I got Sweet Lips which is a light brownish colour, has a scent of chocolate and vanilla and Bubblegum which is bright pink smells of... bubblegum, believe it or not haha!

Just like you're skin, you're lips need exfoliating too, especially with the winter weather and you're anything like me and love to wear lipsticks you'll know why it's super important to have soft lips! You literally only need a tiny amount on your finger and gently move the scrub in circular movements to remove any dry, flaky  skin from you're lips, don't do it too hard as you will make your lips sore. After you can simply just lick your lips as they are completely edible and you are left with super smooth lips! I usually use the product once a week, depending on the state of my lips however I would probably increase the amount of times I use it. Once the scrub is off you're lips finish off by using a lip balm, I like to use the new Creme Brulee Vaseline! These little pots are £4.95 but they will last as you really don't need to use alot! 

I would love to try some other LUSH products, I always loved their soaps.. they smell good enough to eat, so if anyone can recommend me some nice ones I would be very greatful!!

The Only Way Is Essex Dazzle Perfume Gift Set

I've been debating whether to get the TOWIE perfume for a while, wondering whether it would smell nice so when I saw this gift set in Tesco for just £7.50 I had to get it! The perfume which is named 'Dazzle' is described as an intricate blend of white florals, vanilla and amber, with top notes of neroli, tangerine, apple and grapefruit with a floral heart of jasmine, violet, peony and presented in a diamond shaped gold bottle. The scent in my opinion is something I would use for work as it's cheap and saves using my expensive perfumes. It's fruity and sweet with a hint of vanilla, not everyone's taste and most definitely a younger person's perfume! I'm not a big fan of the bottle, I like the shape, the top and the little gold bow, but the gold colour makes it look cheaply made and tacky! The bottle would of been much more stylish if it was clear, there isn't even anything on the bottle itself to state that it is a TOWIE perfume, if you seen the bottle without it's box it could of been made by anyone! The perfume also comes with a body lotion which smells the same as the perfume, I think I would use this as hand cream rather than a body lotion though! I like the scent and I think it's a good buy for £7.50 and would make a good gift for christmas, but I wouldn't buy it all full price as much as I love The Only Way Is Essex! Has anyone used this perfume before? What do you think?

Another day, Another Shopping Trip..

I found myself yet again in Boots and Superdrug today. Starting out in Boots, which was just a quick visit as I knew exactly what I wanted, i've heard alot about the new Wild Metallic eyeshadow creams from the 17 range, there's six different colours but I only picked up the only 3 colours they had in stock which were Wild Bronze, Wild Nude & Wild Silver. All three are lovely colours, very shimmery with high pigmentation which is purrfect if you're on a wild night out and want to make a statement, ignore the rubbish pun. They're great for Christmas and i'm in LOVE with the leopard print on the packaging, I will definitely be buying more when I can get the other colours..

Clockwise: Wild Nude, Wild Bronze, Wild Silver

Top To Bottom: Wild Nude, Wild Silver, Wild Bronze.

I then called into Superdrug to get some kind of face mask and came across Superdrug's Mud Therapy Deep Cleansing Mud Mask, i've never used this one before, it has a grey/brown colour to it, it has a thick consistency and smells lovely. It has natural mineral benefits of dead sea mud to detoxify the skin, so i'm looking forward to using it to see if it makes a difference to my skin! I also brought the new Creme Brulee Vaseline, i'm a big fan of the vaseline range and i'm sure this is great addition to it, it smells absolutely lush aswell and to top it off, using my Beauty card meant I didn't have to pay a penny as I had enough points to redeem, result!!!
