Tanya Burr's Lips And Nails

Hi everyone!

-

Yesterday Tanya Burr's Lips And Nails collection went live one www.feelunique.com at 6pm. They are the most lovely collection including a range of colours for nails and lips. The hashtag #tanyaburrslipsandnails has been circulating twitter for a while now so everyone was looking forward to this exclusive launch. I myself was not fortunate enough to go to the launch party, but I was counting down the minutes until the products went live. I actually am going to wait until the products come out in Boots/Superdrug to buy them because I would rather buy them there and then instead of wait for delivery.

-

The Lips comes in a range of colour from pretty pinks to winter berries and everything in between. They are £6.99 each which is very reasonable for these products. They comes in a variety of finishes from creme to shimmer. I love the names of these products are brilliant and two of my favourites from the lips line are Just Peachy and Chic. 

The Nails come in bottles that remind of ELF bottles and the colours are beautiful. There is again a wide range of colours available that would be suitable for all seasons. Some of my personal favourites are Penguin Chic, Peaches And Cream, Bright And Early,Mini Marshmallows and Little Duck. All of the polishes say that they are non-fade, chip resistant, long lasting shades.

-

-

So these products are all available right now at www.feelunique.com or you can go through her twitter page where she has left lots of links! Thank you for reading everyone and expect a Tanya Burr Lips And Nails haul very soon with swatches and a much better review!

Seeing Red

Hello everyone!

-

Today is a different post to the usual beauty posts because it's my very first fashion post! I say that All That Sparkles is a beauty, fashion and lifestyle blog but I don't think I have ever done a fashion post. So after reading OK! today I saw their fashion edit and a couple of pictures of celebrities wearing red on the red carpet and I thought I would write this post. Now this article says 'Punctuate your winter wardrobe with shades of scarlet' and I know that it's getting into spring and everyone's buying pastels but it isn't officially spring until about midway through March.

-

-

Valentino Scalloped Heels - £465
I have honestly never seen scalloped edged shoes before but I love these!

Topshop Red Coat - £75
I saw Tanya Burr wearing a baby pink version of this coat in one of her vlogmas video's and I loved it so if you were looking for a spring version of this coat if you prefer

Alexandre Herchcotvitch Autumn/Winter Collection
Was a ready-to-wear collection that including many different trends and he used a lot of black and a bit of red in some of his items
Rimmel Scandaleyes Rockin Curls Mascara - £4.99
Was a mascara that I saw in OK! but I really don't like the fact that they are calling the wand 'Broken hear shaped'.
 Asos Pencil Skirt Wrap - £14
Is absolutely gorgeous and I am really getting into these wrap-styled skirts and this colour is gorgeous.
Catherine Tyldsley BAFTA Awards
Catherine wears red a lot mainly because I think it complements her skin tone beautifully and this dress is a more coral colour but it's still lovely. The famous fashion faux pas of wearing red on the red carpet was long forgotten when Catherine showed off her flawless size 10 figure at the BAFTA's.

So I hope you guys liked my first fashion post on my blog which has been long overdue and thank you for reading! Just to let you know Tanya Burr's Lips And Nails collection is coming out on www.feelunique.com at 6pm tomorrow!

Wax Is The Word

Hello everyone!

-

Today I was lighting some candles and it got me thinking about my favourite candle scents because I always go for a range of scents but I never know which are my favourite so in this post I will be showing you some of my favourite Yankee candles that will see you spring through to summer from Fluffy Towels to Lake Sunset.

-

-

Beach Wood is a true summer scent with the smells of sea salt and driftwood perfectly blended to capture the beach in a candle.

Fluffy Towels is my go-to candle in March when the clocks change early on Sunday morning I love burning this fresh, natural candle. It's my very favourite scent from Yankee candle, even better than the festive scents in my opinion!

Vanilla Lime is a really sweet, fruity scent that smells kind of like key lime pie/lime cheesecake. This is a gorgeous summer scent that I burn all day long in August when nipping in and out of my room for sun cream and bobbles.

Lake Sunset is also one of my favourite scents because I feel like it's a year-round scent that smells amazing all the time.

Lemon Lavender reminds me a lot of my grandmas house because it always smells of lavender. I think the lemon adds a sweet fruity summer fragrance to this natural delicate scent

-

All these candels are around £1.20 so they are definitely worth buying! Thank you for reading everyone

Updated High End Skincare Routine

Hello everyone!

-

I have been getting a lot of requests to do an updated skincare routine after I did one quite a while a go. I won't be using my own pictures in this post because it's so dark outside the picture quality is awful so sorry about that! 

-

-

No7 Soft and gentle cleanser - £8 is not really high end but it feels it on my skin. It's hypo-allergenic and it has a creamy texture which leaves skin feeling clean but baby soft.

Simple Toner - £2.99 is again not high end but it works for me so I use it every day. I trust it to remove every last speck of make up and close my pores feeling confident I will wake up with dirty, oily skin.

Simple Eye Make Up Remover - £3.25 is my final non-high end product in this collection. I'm big on eye make up remover as I would say I wear a littler more than average eye make up and I get irritated eyes a lot so taking it off with a great remover with a gentle aspect to it is just what I need.

Simon Therapie Diamond Eye Contouring Moisturizer - £55 is one of the most expensive products I have ever used on my skin. I know it is meant to tighten the skin and reduce deep wrinkles which is obviously not what I use it for as I am 14, but I still love this product for keeping my eyes feeling tight and lifted. 

StriVectin-EV Dark Circle Cream - £35 is my go-to product for bad dark circles. Because I have blue undertones in my skin I end up with almost purple dark circles. This is working wonders at the minute and I will be repurchasing this product a lot!

Sk:n Blemish Lotion - £22 is a new product I am using because I have always been very careful with what I put on my blemishes but this product is working great with my skin and Sk:n is one of my new favourite skincare brands.

YSL Youth Liberating Serum - £61 is one of the most expensive skincare products I have ever used. It works wonders on my dull skin which I find especially in the winter months becomes very tired so this product is applied every night and when I wake up my skin feels really lifted and bright which gives me a fresh face before doing my make up.

Bobbi Brown Gel Hydrating Moisturiser - £37.50 is a product I have stuck with for a while after loving it's texture before and after applying it to my skin.

Thanks for reading lovelies!

Little Make Up/Beauty/Everything Haul

Hi guys!

-

If you saw my google+ post this morning then you will know that I was doing the photo every hour challenge today so because it isn't the end of the day yet I haven't stopped taking photos yet so that post will be up either later or tomorrow morning. Anyway today I went shopping and brought a load of products from body butter to nail varnish and here are some photos of what I brought.

-

 Barry M Nail Varnish Left to right - Gelly Mango, Peach Melba, Ridley Road - £9.98

 Lasting Perfection Concealer By Collection in Shade 1 - £4.19

 The Body Shop Passion Fruit Body Butter - reduced to £5

 MAC Satin Taupe Eyeshadow Pan Palette Re-fill - £10

 Keri Smith Wreck This Journal - £8.99

-

So I think what I love the most that I brought was my Wreck This Journal which I LOVE already! I also really like the concealer it is amazing after I brought the wrong colour last time I had dismissed it but I am so glad I gave it another try! Also I love the Satin Taupe colour from MAC to add to my palette however I have had to remove Sumptuous Olive and Sketch now because I have a quad. The Body Shop Passion Fruit smells like really fruity, summery yoghurt. That sounds really weird but if you get chance to smell one you will know what I mean. I am wearing the Barry M nail varnish Ridley Rode in my photo challenge post and it is a really cool texture like sugary-ish or something!

-

Just a little disclaimer I don't do these posts to show off or promote any products I only do them because you guys love them and I get requests to do them all the time! Thanks for reading everyone and I apologise for not posting recently do two posts today to make up for it! Check you g+ feed for when my next post goes live or follow me on google+ using the g+ icon on the right!

Pucker Up: Edition 3

Hello everyone!

-

I am bringing to you the final edition of 'Pucker Up' today the lipstick and lipgloss series that I have been posting for the past 2 days. If you missed any of the editions you can look below this post and scroll down or click on the link to the post directly from my g+ page which is linked to the g+ picture on the right. Today is the 'lipsticks and glosses I am not brave enough to buy'. There are a lot of these products out there for me and because I am a little scared of colours other than nudes and neutrals but hopefully I will find some lipsticks and glosses that you guys are a little scared to use too!

-

-

Revlon Black Cherry is quite a dark colour a little lighter than MAC punk couture, and to be honest a pretty scary colour if your used to nudes and pinks. 

MAC Morange is a colour that has always intrigued me and I might buy it for my holiday's this year but I will definitely be trying this one on in the store first!

MAC Diva is quite a popular colour but people often are unsure whether it suits them or not. I think this one has red undertones unlike the Revlon lipstick which is more brown. 

MAC Punk Couture is a colour that one day I would love to try but probably in winter or autumn when I am feeling the colour a little more.

Kate Moss 010 is a really bright red colour that is one of the most well known colours in the collection. I have worn a red lip before but this one seems a little brighter than others so this will be an experiment much like the Rimmel 084 lipstick that I will have to use when I'm more confident with colour!

-

Comment the scariest colour you have ever tried below and thank you for reading!

-

Pucker Up: Edition 2

Hello everyone!

-

This is another edition of Pucker Up this time including a range of lip glosses rather than lipsticks. If you missed the first edition you can either see it below this post or go to the post direct from my g+ page (find it using the g+ picture on the right). So I will be using a range of glosses from different brands and the pictures will not be my own.

-

-

MAC Lipglass In Fashion Whim is my idea of the perfect coloured lipgloss. This colour almost matches MAC Blankety which is one of my first lipsticks I every brought from MAC.

Nars Orgasm Lipgloss is a beautiful lipgloss that was featured on my 'First Lust List of 2014' post a few days ago and I mentioned how much I wanted it but found it too awkward to ask for the product from my parents.

Rimmel London Apocalips Lipgloss In Luna is actually product I have not tried yet but I think my mum has it so before I buy it I will give a test run!

Bobbi Brown Lipgloss In Baby Pink is a shade that has just been released that I love and it looks like the kind of colour that it substantial enough to wear without a lipstick underneath.

Tom Ford Lipgloss In Peach Absolut is kind of similar to the Topshop orange lipstick I featured in edition 1 of pucker up so I would probably wear this £32 gloss over that lipstick.

-

Thank you for reading and the lovely amazing comments and emails about how much you guys liked the first edition of this small series. The final edition is coming tomorrow!

-

Pucker Up: Edition 1

Hi everyone!

-

Today I am doing edition one of a three edition series - pucker up. In this edition I will be doing a lipstick wishlist type post, in the second edition I will be doing a lip gloss wishlist post and finally I will be doing a third edition on lipsticks I'm not brave enough to buy but would someday love to try. Anyway here are my top lipsticks at the moment from drug store to high end.

-

-

Topshop Ohh La La Lipstick is such a summer colour and would set off a white summer dress so nicely. Topshop is a great upcoming make up brand that I am loving at the moment.

Rimmel Pink Blush Lipstick is one of the nicest pink lipsticks around and Rimmel is such a great drug store brand and has amazing prices for a large range of products.

MAC Creme Cup Lipstick is a colour that has been on my wishlist for a while because you guys know I love my nudes and this one is such a pretty pink toned colour that would make a tan look gorgeous in summer.

Revlon Nude Attitude Matte Lipstick would be my perfect lipstick to finish a natural spring look.

MAC Huggable Lip Colour In Touché is a colour that I haven't tried before but I would love to try it one day because I am getting into reds/oranges at the moment.

-

Thank you for reading guys! What's your favourite lipstick brand at the moment?

B Is For Body Butter

Hi guys!

-

I went on a little shopping trip yesterday and (of course) had a look round The Body Shop as they have so many sales on in store at the minute on most of their Christmas items but the offer that interested me the most was their body butters (for a limited time) are £5! I didn't actually buy one at that time because I was a little confused whether I should buy the re-purchase the gingerbread butter or buy a new scent for my holidays this year? So I left it for now but I will be buying one shortly! Anyway The Body Shop isn't the only brand that sell body butters and I have never really had an open mind about other butters because I never trust them like I do The Body Shop but hopefully this post will change my mind!

-

-

Victoria's Secret Body Butter is not that well known in the UK but it's pretty cheap, smells great and you can buy it online.

Soap and glory Righteous Butter is one of my personal favourite products because it is one of the first soap and glory products I brought.

Ted Baker body butter has really pretty packaging and it smells fresh and luxurious so I think this one will be on my holiday shopping list.

Philosophy coconut body butter comes from one my favourite brands mainly because of their minimalist image and gorgeous products.

Sanctiuary Spa body butter is actually not a product I have used before so I am really will into try this product after loving their soaps.

I had to get a few Body Shop butters in the mix and this Raspberry Body Butter is one of my favourite spring scents but I also rely on it in Winter because of its superior moisturising qualities.

Gingerbread body butter was the best fragrance from the body shop that I have ever used and I think it was the first Christmas themed scent I brought last year and I hope they bring this out again this year!

Soap And Glory Sugar Crush body butter is actually quite a recent purchase but this is the nicest smelling product I have ever used by far!

Body Shop Moringa body butter is another lovely scent  that I adore so much and I have this scent in a perfume form as well.

Boots mango body butter is to be quite honest a last resort body butters because I have always preferred Soap And Glory if I'm in boots but if I have some spare change I will give this one a try.

I love Mano and papaya body butter is a pretty cheap body butter that smells so nice and it is a very thick product that is good in winter.

Origins body butter is the most organic feel good body butter with a really fresh clean and natural scent that I can't get enough of!

-

Well thanks for reading guys and comment your favourite butter at the moment!

High End Collective Haul

Hello guys!

-

I have been wanting to do a high end haul for a while but I brought all these products at different times so it's only know that I am ready to post this with enough products!

-

-

At the top left corner there is a Estee Lauder Cheek Rush Gel Blush. I love the subtlety to this product and it's texture is unlike any product I have used before - £25 

I then brought myself a Bobbi Brown Lipgloss in Hot Pink is a really thick colourful lipgloss that I wear over any lipstick for a pop of colour - £18

I treated myself to a Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick. These colours are so summery and I will be using this a lot in june/july.

Estee Lauder Desirable Lipstick is one of my favourite lipsticks at the moment. It's such a pretty nude colour and I wear this under my Dior Addict lipgloss - £24.

Stila All Over Shimmer Powder Kitten has one of the most pigmented highlighters I have ever owned and I love it! - £15

Today I brought a MAC Embark Palette Re-Fill Pan to give me a more smokey eye option in my quad instead of all the autumnial colours. I put it over Bare Study paintpot and Naked Lunch when I got home and I adore it already! - £10

-

Thanks for reading guys and I hope you enjoyed this post! Reviews coming soon!

Products I Have Never Wanted To Buy

Hello everyone!

-

Today I'm doing a 'Products I Have Never Wanted To Buy' because I have quite a few products that for some reason I have never felt that I want to buy.

-

First is the Calvin Klein Concealer. I am not really that interested in this product mainly because yesterday one of my friends applied some and I saw that the coverage was awful. It might have just been the way she applied it but it made no change to her face what-so ever.

Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse is a product that I really have no interest in. The texture makes me gag and I don't know why I find it so gross I just really dislike how to mousse feels.

MAC Heroine Lipstick is a colour that I think suits a very select group of people, me not included. Because I have really fair skin so I think I would wash me out and make me look quite gothic

Colour Tattoo is a product that I think replicates MAC paintpot but it's a lot thicker, and not as smooth. The packaging is pretty similar but the colours are very vibrant.

EOS lip balms have never appealed to me after Tanya Burr reviewed them and didn't get on too well with them. I think you either love them or you hate them.

Vera Wang Princess Fragrance is a scent that has never truly appealed to me and I'm not too sure why. I normally love Vera Wang fragrances but this one is just not for me.

Naked Palette Two is my least favourite naked palette because I think the colours in one and three are much prettier and the colours seem a lot richer.

First Lust List Of 2014

Hi guys!

-

As you may know I love 'lust lists' or 'wishlists' so I decided to write one for you guys!
-

The Essie Summer Collection 2014 was recently shown to me by my friend Meg who brought one recently. She wore the purple colour 'Full steam ahead' today and it looked amazing!

Nars Orgasm Lip Gloss is a product that I have wanted for a while now but I don't really want to put it on my christmas/birthday list or even buy it myself because I will have to say the name of the product and because I look a lot younger than I am I think it will be pretty embarrassing.

Jo Malone Blackberry And Bay is one of my favourite Jo Malone scents. This product is actually on my birthday list this year but it is quite expensive so I will use this product lightly!

Nars Laguna Bronzer is something that everyone talks about as the be all and end all bronzer of all time!

Topshop Glow Highlighter as a product that really interests me as I have never owned a really good highlighter before so I hope this one will be a stand out product of 2014.

Zoeva Buffing Kabuki Brush is so intriguing because I have never owned a kabuki sized buffing before.

MAC Hang-Up Lipstick is in a colour that I have craved for a while. I have always wanted to dare myself to buy this colour but maybe sometime in the near future I will be more confident to try this product.

-

So I hope you guys liked this post! Thank you very much,

New Beauty Releases This Year

Hi everyone

-

I am so excited to see what new products come from this year in the beauty department. I am really excited to see what perfumes come out this year because other than 'Modern Muse' and 'Le Vie Est Belle' none really stood out to me.

-

-

Chanel Spring Collection Nail Varnishs are coming out in January and the colours are (left to right) Ballerina, Charivari, and Tapage. Ballerina is a real spring colour and it would look amazing with the Chanel top coat and I love Tapage for summer or june-ish time. I personally think that Charivari is more of an Autumn colour but I think it's such a pretty colour it could work with a white dress in summer/spring.

Kiehls Ultra Face Cream Intense Hydration comes out in Febuary and it will be available on the website www.Kiehls.com. Kiehls products always do what they say on the tin and work wonders on dry skin - which I get a lot of in Winter. I only wish this product was brought out last year in time for Christmas.

Tanya Burr's Lips And Nails will be available on the 30th of January on www.feelunique.com and they are a line of lip glosses and nail polishes coming from the celebrity youtube star make up artist Tanya Burr.

MAC Maleficent collection has not been given an official release date or even a preview of what's in the collection, but if the film trailor is anything to go by, the collection will a stand-out line of daring colours.

Philosophy Miracle Foundation is another product from the miracle worker line from Philosophy that will be available on ww.ULTA.com early this year.

Nars Matte Multiple are make up sticks that can be used all over the face for blush, highlight, bronzer and foundation. For this Spring collection they will be in matte shades.

Finally Benefit Porefessional Agent Zero Shine is available in Sephora, Shoppers Drug Mart and Murale in January. This product is able to achieve a smooth look with a matte finish.

Holy Grail Of Hair Care

Hi everyone!

-

Hair care has always been very important to me and because I use heat on my hair a lot, protecting it is essential. There are so many hair products available at the moment so I though I would share with you guys my personal favourites.

-

I got this in Boots after I saw it on the clearance stand and it was £2. I couldn't resist it, one because of the price and two because the Glam Hair collection is one of my personal favourites from Umberto Giannini - it smells so good!

 I put this product in my favourite products at the moment post from yesterday and I did a mini review of it. I have almost used all of this up because it is so so good. It protects my hair against curling irons, wands, straighteners, and hair-dryers without leaving a sticky film. 

 I'm sure I have used this product before or mentioned it in a post but here it is again. All these 'argon oils' and 'morocan oils' are raved about so much so I decided that it was time to buy one. This is just an Elvive extraordinary oil from Boots so it's nothing expensive.

 Sorry about the awfully dirty packaging but this is the Label.m soufflé. Soufflé hair products are so amazing because they can sort out any fly-aways you may have or anything to be honest. It smells really nice and it's around £10 which is pretty good.

 L'oreal have an amazing studio silk and gloss available in most drugstores. This one is the hot straight spray put of course you can use this for drying and curling. I spray this into my roots for more volume and to control any fly-aways.

So these are all my go-to hair products for everyday use! Comment your number one hair care product at the moment and thank you for reading!
