Sorry...

I never really wanted to do one of these posts but there isn't a post today as I have just been lacking any motivation, it has been a really bad week for me so far and I have tried to do numerous posts but reading them back they haven't seemed any good, and when I write my posts I want to be able to write what I feel and when I feel like this it's really hard to write anything good.

Hopefully I will be much happier next week, I am seeing my friends tomorrow so hopefully that should cheer me up, it usually does. Just everything gets a little too much sometimes. I am sorry about there being no post today but I will try my best to get one up on Sunday! I have a lot of reviews of products I have tried and I have a lot of ideas which I am now going to start working on!

It would be great if you could leave some suggestions on posts which I could do, I want to try and mix things up a bit rather than it being similar things all the time. Let me know in the comments some ideas!

Until Next Time,

Black Friday Kiko Bargains!

Kiko Milano is a brand I have never tried I have heard so much about it though for it's good quality products. Originally I only went in to look at the products and I did come out of the shop with nothing, but when I was planning on leaving I ended up going back and buying a few things what can I say you have to take advantage of the sales! In my Black Friday post I did mention that it was buy 3 get 3 free definitely something you can't let go to waste.

Total Sculpt 3 in 1 Contour Kit 01 Light to Medium - this was apart of their Christmas Collection I originally thought they had sold out of this until we went back they had stocked back up. YES! You get three different shades which are for sculpting, contouring and highlighting, along with a small angled brush. The shades are really pigmented and go really well for a paler skin tone which is ideal for me. These shades can be built up so you can make them darker or lighter depending on your preference.

Moon Dust Face Powder 02 Fairy Mauve - another item from their Christmas Collection which I instantly fell in love with from swatching it. I walked all around the shopping centre and every time I saw the swatch it made me want the product even more, this is the reason why I did end up going back into the shop. The blush has an pinkey/orange tone to it but in other lights it has some gold going through it, this can be used as both a blush and highlight from looking at the blush it has a baked effect which I'm guessing if you was to wet the brush it would make the colour a lot darker. This colour will suit all skins tones pale or dark.







Pencil Lip Gloss Shades 09 and 10 - both these shades are brown nudes which are ideal for anyone for me this is perfect as I am a lover of nude colours. 09 Light Beige is a slightly lighter nude with a slight brown undertone to it, the 10 Dark Rose shade is darker with a slight pink/red undertone in it. The formula for these lip gloss pencils are really creamy and the colour pay off is amazing you don't have to use much to get a good colour, unlike some lipgloss pencils you need to apply a few layers to get a full coverage of the colour. When you first look at the product you expect it to have a lip liner texture but it just melts on your lips.



106 Face Brush - my Real Techniques stippling brush was my first ever brush that became my holy grail so I decided I would get another stippling brush you can never have too many brushes. It's made from synthetic hairs which is an added bonus, it's also amazingly soft something which I know a lot of people look for in brushes. I have yet to use this brush and wash it so I can't really say much on how well the brush washes and keeps its shape.


Brush Cleaner 50ml - Lately I have been trying lots of different brush cleaners because lets face it no one enjoys the task of washing their brushes I know I don't. Brush cleaners are ideal for a quick spot clean if you need a brush but don't have time to be going and giving them a full deep clean.

Kiko Milano is an affordable make up brand it has a mixture of both expensive and inexpensive products, but from looking at some of the products you can see the high quality in the products. The packaging is the same especially on the Christmas Collection, you can feel the quality and see it from the embossed detail and the packaging of the products keeps up the high end feel, you can see this in the pictures I was amazed by the packaging from this brand.

Until Next Time,

November Favourites!

It's now officially time to get in the Christmas spirit! But before that I'm going to just going to cover some of my November favourites. November has flown by but I have actually managed to find some new favourites.

The L'Oreal True Match Foundation has now taken over from my No7 Beautifully Matte which I thought it would be pretty hard because I love that! But after my friend tried it on me I knew I needed to get it and instantly bought it a few days after. Me and my friend are similar in skin tone so we are usually the same in most foundations. The colour matches me amazingly and the coverage is buildable so you can get both sheer and full coverage from just one foundation. I did find it was quite watery but I have got use to that so it doesn't bother me as much. I am fairly pale so I have one of the lightest shades which is 1.N.

I have never been one to bother with beauty blenders but I received one in my GlossyBox so why not try it - I am glad I did because it is amazing the finish it gives you after you have blended all your make up out is just flawless! Why didn't I try this any sooner? It was weird when I first used it because I was so use to just using brushes but my ways have now changed. I would recommend you try a beauty blender if you haven't before you won't be disappointed! (excuse the state of mine it's due a clean)


Emite Make Up Diamond Heart Base Primer is another item I received in my GlossyBox which I'm also happy with I have never heard of this brand before but from the packaging I was expecting good things, this primer is now a go to in my daily make up routine and works fantastic alongside my L'Oreal True Match Foundation. I only have the travel size so I might have to look into getting the full size product. It's different to my other primers as its not very drying which for me is a bonus, it leaves my skin feeling amazing.

Victoria Secret body sprays have always been hyped up by everyone so I thought I'd give them a go. Luckily for me they had their Christmas selection out which I love Christmas scents so I immediately fell in love with these. Winter Cranberry is my all time favourite I have not stopped wearing it and when Christmas is over I will be pretty gutted as I won't be able to get it anymore, maybe I should stop using it as much now just so I have enough to last me a year hahaha! Can I add aswell that the packaging of the sprays is one of my favourites you can tell it's limited edition because it is different to the normal bottles, but overall they have changed the design of their bottles making them look a lot more classy and sophisticated in my opinion.

This month has gone by so fast for me, I don't really have many favourites this month as I still have a lot to try but I keep buying more and more stuff which I need to stop because it is becoming unhealthy. Also sorry this is late, I had the post ready but no pictures to go with it and work has been hectic with Christmas hours starting.

What have been your November favourites? Let me know in the comments!

⛄ German Christmas Market ⛄

There is nothing that can get you in the Christmas mood like the German Christmas Market. The Christmas lights, mulled wine, beer and being able to get all wrapped up looking around the small stalls. Which I'd like to add are definitely quirky in their own way. You can pick up some nice gifts from the German Market if you want to give a present with it's own added touch which can't be found everywhere, it gives it that little more personal sense to it with them usually being a one off.

I have been to the Christmas market before and the one thing to always catch my eye is the candles, nothing new there because I am always buying candles. So I decided to buy some they were adorable with them being Christmas themed and I thought why not it was 10 for £12, or 1 for £1.50 so I thought why not may aswell get 10 plus I think it would have been quite hard to just pick a couple.

From looking around this year I noticed that honey and beeswax is a big thing, from beeswax candles to honey alcohol which my friend did get she got 'Hot Honey Mead' which in my opinion was very weird, it smelt like vinegar and cough medicine weird mix I know. From having a sip of this it was alright but the aftertaste was weird not bad but weird, luckily I didn't get one for myself as I wouldn't have been able to drink all that myself.

The food there is amazing it's the usual potato cakes, garlic bread, german sausage etc or sweet treats like popcorn, sweets and waffles. They do some amazing marshmallows which are HUGEE! however I can't eat these with me being a vegetarian but my mum and sister did get some, sadly I wasn't quick enough to get a picture of these before they got eaten.

Hopefully I will be going back to the German Christmas Market with my friends so I will be able to pick up some more things hopefully, it's such a lovely atmosphere and it just gets you in the Christmas spirit.

Until Next Time,

MAC Enchanted Eve Christmas Collection

Every year MAC Cosmetics bring out a Christmas range which will last until the New Year. One piece of the MAC Christmas collection always makes it way onto my Christmas list, last year was the Keepsakes collection which I got the nude palette I can't remember the name of it.


The 2015 Christmas range is amazing, I instantly fell in love with it and needed it all! The theme this year was based around purples, blues and nudes giving it that night out vibe. I decided to treat myself to a few bits because knowing my luck it would be out of stock when I have time to get it, just like the 'Oh Darling' highlight I was too late to get that which sucks.

Enchanted Eve Eyes in Warm £32.
When it comes to eyeshadows I tend to be quite boring and play it safe, always sticking to warm tones and nudes. However I needed this palette it is pretty much like my Keepsakes palette with the same warm tone. The other colours you could get in this range were the mauve and navy palette.

The 6 eyeshadows you get:
- Seasonal Spirit
- Moodmaker
- Sax Appeal
- Bewitchin'
- Charcoal Brown
- Retrospeck

MAC eyeshadows are amazing quality so I know I won't be let down with these! I love the size of this palette it is ideal for travelling with it being easy to slip into a pocket. The mirror is also a added bonus with it being fairly big making it perfect for when you're doing your eye make up on the go. This product overall is really good quality and has all the little added details, the packaging itself and the magnetic seal making it easy to open and close.

Enchanted Eve Eye Bag in Neutral £39.50.
Originally I wasn't going to get the eye set in the Enchanted Eve range but I was going to buy the paint pot and mascara anyways, so thought I may aswell save some money and get more items. The other two sets were quite similar to this apart from they differed in the paintpot and fluidline with purples and then blues.

In the set you get;
- Painterly Paint Pot
- Dipdown Fluidline Eyeliner
- False Lashes in False Black
- Double Ended Brush with an eyeshadow and liner brush.
- Make Up Bag

What you get in this set is a good value for money and would be the perfect Christmas present for any make up lover. I am excited to use the False Lashes mascara because my first ever mascara from MAC I loved - but it was limited edition so sadly I couldn't get it again. I have been wanting to try the Painterly paint pot for so long after hearing so many people give it good reviews.

Enchanted Eve Lip Bag in Nude £34.
You might be thinking I have gone with nudes again, this set was really the only one I would personally go for that I know I would wear. The other two you could get were a bright pink or red these looked amazing but not for me hahaha,

In the set you get:
- Creme Cup Cremesheen Lipstick
- Boldly Bare Lip Pencil
- Cherry Blossom Lipglass
- Make Up Bag

I have never been let down with MAC lipsticks, you could probably tell if you knew how many I own, trust me it's not healthy. However I can't say much about the lip liners as I have never tried them but I have heard all good things about them, so hopefully I won't be disappointed. Can I just add the bags I got given were amazing they were to go with the Guo Pei collection.



MAC's collection this year is one of my favourites, all the packaging has an edgy clubbing vibe but it's still very classy. I might do a review on some of the products in future posts if I remember. I can definitely say it was a good spend which was worth it!

Did you get any of the new collection? Are you going to get any if so what? I'd love to know so drop me a comment!

Until Next Time.

October Favourites!

So October's over, November's here. I thought I would share with you my favourites from October, some of these have been my favourites for over a month I would have done them in past favourites but with me not actually starting this blog until the end of October when I was able to actually sit and put the time and effort into this, but these products have continued to be a favourite for over a month.

Clinique Contour Chubby Stick - I wanted to purchase this for so long after seeing Emily Canham (imhereforever on YouTube) using it and giving it nothing but good reviews. But I didn't want to spend the money if I wasn't going to like it, so like any person I waited till I was going on holiday and got it in Duty Free for less.
This is something I have reached for whenever I do my make up whether it's being used on it's own or as a base under my contour, it's easily blendable and you don't need that much on for it to give the desired look. I have quite fair skin and this works well with my skin tone but I have seen it used on so many different skin tones which is an added bonus.



Avon Anew Mascara and Serum - Hearing about different serums to use on eyelashes I never thought they would actually work, but I have been corrected the Avon Anew Serum is a god send it actually works! I use this whenever I put mascara on now this has done nothing but make them look even better.
The serum is said to strengthen your eyelashes and make them look fuller which I agree it does. Using the mascara along with this serum is the best combination I have worn no other mascara since I got this. I am not really keen on plastic wands when it comes to mascara I personally prefer the bristles, but this is amazing the wand makes sure you can get every lash and gives it a good coverage without it looking too clumpy. I am really happy that I decided to purchase this because I will definitely be repurchasing this.


Zoella Wonder Hand - Been the type of person that never really bothered with hand cream unless I really needed it, but after getting the Zoella Wonder Hand I don't know why I haven't been using it more often because my hands feel amazing! Especially with my job my hands are prone to getting dry especially now with it getting to winter.
Before I bought this I was worried that it would be strong smelling and with this having the same scent as Zoella's original collection which I wasn't very keen on.I didn't want it to be too strong for me. But to my surprise it isn't strong smelling at all. The one thing everyone needs in a good hand cream is that it's fast drying especially if you're on the go and can't be waiting around for it to sink in which luckily this one dries really fast leaving your hands feeling amazingly hydrated.


MAC Yash Matte Lipstick - MAC lipsticks are my ultimate favourite lipstick ever, if I could I would buy every shade possible. I am one to go for nudes, pinks and browns.
Yash is one of my most recent purchases and I don't know why I didn't find out about this sooner, this has been one of my new favourites from MAC I had never heard much about it unlike Velvet Teddy which everyone has hyped about and I agree on the hype it's amazing. Yash has taken over my love for Velvet Teddy it's the perfect nude and ideal if you don't want a lipstick that needs to look perfect for it to look good.




I'd love to know what your favourites from October are, let me know in the comments.

Until Next Time.

Girl Online Tour - Meeting Zoella/Book Signing!

The other day I was lucky enough to be able to meet one of my idols, Zoella aka Zoe Sugg. She is one of the most down to earth people I know and dead sweet, I honestly didn't think I would ever meet her. Until she released her book signing tour dates for Girl Online On Tour and she was coming to my city. I got the tickets for my sister's birthday present but I also wanted to go so it was an added bonus that I got a gift out of it.

The signing was at the Waterstones in town, and from going to Alfie's book signing I was expecting to be queuing for a while, but this one I was queuing for around an hour which compared isn't long at all. It was a lot more relaxed and not so cramped like at Alfie's, you didn't get chance to take a picture with Zoe but that's understandable when they have so many people to get through. I took Girl Online with me in hope I could also get that signed which I could thankfully, this did mean I got longer with Zoe but everyone seemed to get the same length of time.

The bracelet you receive is just at the top.

After meeting Zoe you got a tour poster with all the book signing tour dates on and a fabric wristband which had "Girl Online On Tour Zoe Sugg" on it. Ideal added extra which can be like a memory of the day along with of course a signed copy of the book. When the Girl Online On Tour pre orders came out I was on holiday at the time but I was lucky enough to get a pre order of a signed copy just incase she wasn't going to come to my city on her book tour or that I couldn't go to it, so I now have 2 signed copies. 

I started reading Girl Online On Tour as soon as I got it in the post, I am about half way through and it's amazing. The storyline is perfect and a good flow on from Girl Online, so if you haven't read Girl Online I recommend reading that before Girl Online On Tour. The book in general makes you feel a rollercoaster of emotions which you get this from both books.

Have you read Girl Online On Tour? What are your thoughts? Let me know what you think in the comments.

Until Next Time.

But hey I'm Paige and welcome to my blog! I hope that this won't be the only post on here. It would be really nice if you could give me a follow or even a comment.
