Lush 'Pumkin' Bubble Bar

Lush 'Pumkin' Bubble Bar

There are no tricks involved in this gorgeous little Pumpkin, it's allll treat. Simply run under your bath tap, whilst giving it a bit of a cheeky crumble, and you are left with an array of bubble upon bubble and delightfully orange water. Fabulous.

Perfectly Autumnal, this little bar of joy contains Ylang Ylang oil and Orange Flower absolute, which should make you feel all lovely and uplifted. Beautiful for these chilly nights, and short days. 

There is nothing spooky about this Halloween special, except how gorge it is,

Happy (almost) Halloween,

Jo Malone - Peony and Blush Suede

Beautiful Packaging as Always

Peony & Blush Suede

This is the latest in fragrance by Jo Malone, and it is just gorgeous. It is floral and fresh, but once developed on your skin, it deepens into a sensual and irresistible smell. It also lasts forever, I can't stop smelling my wrists and smiling (just hope no-one sees me...), it's a truly beautiful, clean, crisp and heady scent for this Autumn/ Winter.

Jo Malone rocks. Do you have any favourites by this brand?

Lots of Love,

Mani Monday: Halloween Special

Halloween Nail Ideas

Now, I love an excuse to crazy up my nails, and Halloween is just one of those times you get to go just a bit freaky. These are just a few designs I dreamt up, I hope you enjoy. I'll pop a bit of a method and the tools I used below, but this post is basically just for inspiration, so have fun!

Ghose, Jack O' Lantern, Speckles, Kitty and Mould - Yum

Furry Mould, Creepy Dead Girl and Horrid Eye

Bloodshot, Gross Eye

Creepy Dead Girl, Eye, Goop and Skull

Speckles

The Gang

Speckles, Spider and Monster

Tree Silhouette, Ghost and Creepy Moon

Jack O' Lantern and Kitty

Goop, Skull and Speckles

As you can see, the designs range from creepy eyeballs, to skulls, to goop and then tame green, orange or black etc with some speckles. How detailed and gross you get is entirely up to you, I just love the drama!

I used lots of cocktail sticks, my trusty black WAH and Models Own nail art pen in black, the OPI Skullicious set, Barry M in White and Green Gelly pot and the Maybelline Color Show speckled polish in Black. Any colours in a 'Halloween' theme will be great, it's up to you how you use them :)

I hope you liked this inspo post, what will you be getting up to this Halloween?

Spooky Love,

RiRi for M.A.C Fall '13

RiRi for MAC Fall '13

I was a huge fan of the RiRi for M.A.C collection prior to this, so I couldn't resist picking up a few bits (mainly because of the AMAZING packaging). I decided on another RiRi Woo, (I adore this retro matte shade, a favourite from her first collection), Who's that Chick Lipstick and RiRi Woo Lip Liner.

RiRi Woo Lip Liner

Woo for the Win, a Liner of Gods

I adore this liner, it is so creamy and easy to apply, as well as being the perfect blue red shade of RiRi Woo, which is extremely wearable and very flattering.

The above looks demonstrate the easiness of application, making sure that your lipstick not only doesn't bleed and lasts longer, but that it looks flawless too.

Close Up - On the Lip

As you can see, the combo of the RiRi Woo liner and lipstick, create a flawless beautiful, blue-red lip. Perfect for chilly Autumn days and Fiery Christmas nights.

Who's that Chick is a frosty Orange. It just sizzles and shimmers in a flattering red-orange, which compliments a tan and darker skin tones beautifully. For a really dramatic look, you can actually do as Rihanna herself and line your lips with RiRi Woo before application, for a modern and bold lip. Gorgeous.

With Flash

The above application is a pretty light one, and with no liner. If you would like to see it heavily applied or as I said above, with the RiRi Woo liner, just pop me a comment and i'll be happy to oblige.

This Autumn (Fall for you American Types...) collection by Rihanna for MAC, is yet another stand out triumph. I don't think this will be the last you hear of this pairing either, so watch this space.

Lots of Love,

A/W Pink Lips with Chanel

Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Colour in 93 'Exaltee'

This is such a perfect lip to work the A/W obsession with Pink. If you don't fancy covering yourself in a pastel Pink oversize cocoon coat, perk up your pout with Pink instead. This gorgeous, cream lip by Chanel Rouge Allure glides on like a dream. It is such an easy pink to wear for most skin tones, and for any occasion. Its sophisticated, yet sexy. I have fallen hard.

You can pick one up yourself from all good Chanel counters, for around £24. It may sound pricey, but it's an undeniable luxury, and the packaging is just irresistible.

Lovely Packaging

This is already an invaluable asset to my Lip collection, and I have a feeling it's going to be my favourite way to warm up my face in the chilly months ahead,

Baby Lips: Part Two

Peach Kiss, Intense Care, Cherry Pie and Mint Fresh Baby Lips

This is the second part of my Baby Lips infatuation. You can see my first post here, reviewing the Blue Intense Care and the gorgeous Pink Punch. I loved them so, so much... I couldn't resist finishing my collection with Peach Kiss, Yellow Intense Care, Cherry Pie and Mint Fresh.

Peach Kiss; as it may sound... is a lovely Peach scented balm, with a subtle peachy colour when applied to the lips.

The Yellow Intense Care balm, is very similar to the Blue Intense Care, bar the packaging. I don't think you can have too many super hydrating, SPF 20 miracle working balms making an appearance in your handbags, so the more the merrier when it comes to these care oozing lip BFFs.

Intense Care

On the Lips

Mint Fresh, is a... well it's a super minty fresh lip balm. Not forgetting that all of these balms not only, feel/smell/look amazing, but they all really hydrate your pout, which is so important as the chilly months start creeping up on us. Heating and harsh winds, a sexy pout do not make. Enter - the Baby Lips.

Last, but most definitely not least is the irresistible Cherry Pie. It looks as tasty as it sounds, and gives you a gorgeous subtle red hue to boot. Amazing. Perfect for a sexy, seasonal day lip, whilst maintaing a soft and gorgeous pout for the all important Mistletoe in a few months time. Well, it's never to early to be prepared...

As you can probably tell from my constant raving, I love these balms. The packaging, the colours and most importantly the product itself. It works and looks fabulous, what more could you want?

Kisses and Love,
