So I sat down to do my make-up yesterday, all inspired by the lovely Cydonian at Turtle Beauty who did a gorgeous violet look a couple days ago. I'm not sure what happened but I came out looking like Barbie on crack, but I *think* in a good way!

Also at the moment I am loving my Bare Escentuals Quick Change Brush Cleanser:



I am a bad person who doesn't wash her brushes as much as she should, so this is a miracle for me. You just spray it on a tissue, give your brush a quick swipe and its nice and clean between shampoos! And it smells yummy.

Is anyone else taking part in MUG's Christina Aguilera challenge? Again, I have an overly ambitious idea :S Let's see how that works out!

Love and kisses x

Very Pink LOTD (and moar brushez!)

My fiance is amazing for giving me more creative ideas, but not so much when it comes to my everyday make-up. Sitting in front of my mirror, I asked him what I should put on this morning, and he replied: 'Errr.... pink?'

So I had to wear my Viva Glam Gaga. What a pity!

Speaking of my lovely fiance:



This is us Christmas Day 2008 :) <3


Anywayanyway. My mum got me like, £100 of feelunique.com vouchers for my birthday, so I ordered loads of stuff! Annoyingly, they've all be coming through in seperate packages. I got Lancome Hypnose two days ago, a Lily Lolo bronzer yesterday (which I love - its like a dark peach, a perfect colour for me as I am *not* a St Tropez-tan kind of girl, I just like to not look dead sometimes - I said sometimes, Makeup Zombie) and two brushes today! And I have three other parcels at the bloody post office! SEND THEM ALL AT ONCE!



This is the Bare Escentuals precision liner brush. I don't know why I bought it as I don't own any gel eyeliners, but I just wanted it. The handle is really short, shorter than my index finger. I'm pretty gangly of finger but it's short! Anyway, the bristles are super stiff, I can't wait to use it!



And thats the Kent Contour Blush brush. I ordered a few brushes from Kent and I'm really excited to use them. Kent makes fancy hair and shaving brushes ('By appointment to the Queen' sort of thing) and it seems that make-up brushes are a new venture for them. I was really hoping to get thier Socket Defining brush, which looks like fat MAC 219 today, but I'll have to wait till tomorrow. Stupid postman.

Love and impatient kisses,
