<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hot Hair are a Hair Company that sell all different Hair Extensions, Hair Pieces and also Wigs. Hot Hair have a <a href="http://www.hothair.co.uk/Hothair-Hair-Pieces/" target="_blank">online</a> store and are also situated in Selfridges where they have their own section, there are Hot Hair stands in the Birmingham and London Selfridges'.<br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Hot Hair sell a variety of Hair Pieces and Pony Tails, I got the chance to try out one of their new Pony's which is the Tousled Pony. The Tousled Pony is high quality synthetic hair that looks and feels completely natural and is around 30-60cm in length which I think is around 22" but I'm not entirely sure but the Pony is quite long, definitely around the 20" - 22" mark.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jIBjwECvu1A/UkxxhG3RtmI/AAAAAAAABEI/lc93dph8o88/s1600/hair+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jIBjwECvu1A/UkxxhG3RtmI/AAAAAAAABEI/lc93dph8o88/s400/hair+3.jpg" width="297" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are 14 different shades available in the Tousled Pony, I have the shade Chocolate Copper which matches my hair colour perfectly. The Pony is thicker at the top than the bottom which is good because it makes it easier to hide the attachment but it would be good if their was more hair throughout the length but either way it does look nice when attached to your hair.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pGbs66B_fVs/Ukx2O1seVuI/AAAAAAAABEY/NpueXu5Uqzo/s1600/Fotor01002203845.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pGbs66B_fVs/Ukx2O1seVuI/AAAAAAAABEY/NpueXu5Uqzo/s400/Fotor01002203845.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Tousled Pony has a large clip on the inside of it which is what you slide into your own hair for the hairpiece to grip onto it so that is stays on. The part behind the clip which I can never explain properly fits over your own hair which you put into a bun so that it is even more secure, you can tighten it with the drawstring so that it fits whatever size your own hair is when in a bun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To attach the Pony to your own hair all you need to do is two simple things which are:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Tie your own hair into a bun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Clip the hairpiece over your bun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's that simple!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Tousled Pony literally takes less than 5 minutes to attach which is great for if you are in a rush or for those lazy days when you just want a quick hair style that won't take much time. The Pony doesn't look synthetic in day light but under some lighting it does catch the light and show up slightly shiny but that's nothing that a bit of dry shampoo can't sort out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Tousled Pony is available to buy from the <a href="http://www.hothair.co.uk/Tousled-Pony-by-Hothair.html" target="_blank">Hot Hair</a> website and is usually £32.00 to buy but is currently on sale for £25.50.</div>

In my previous Beauty UK post I mentioned that I had purchased one of their Blushes before but never got round to using it, well that blush was one of the Baked Collection Blushes but now Beauty UK have brought out Baked Box Collection Blushes, these are basically Blushes but in boxes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6o6d8-cpq4g/UkWXTDeS_pI/AAAAAAAABBw/DgKbp9O9OmM/s1600/Fotor0927153329.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6o6d8-cpq4g/UkWXTDeS_pI/AAAAAAAABBw/DgKbp9O9OmM/s400/Fotor0927153329.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I love a Pink Blush, especially a Pink Blush with a slight sheen/shimmer to it and that is exactly what this is. A lot of product does come off just from running your finger along the Blush but there isn't a great deal of colour so if you are wanting more colour then you will need to swirl your blush onto it a few times depending on how much colour you want. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-571AQzSes-4/UkWZbMEBj8I/AAAAAAAABCE/Bghi1pRsp5M/s1600/Fotor092715420.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-571AQzSes-4/UkWZbMEBj8I/AAAAAAAABCE/Bghi1pRsp5M/s400/Fotor092715420.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Blush is a nice pink girlie colour that's light and looks really natural on the cheeks, it gives a nice glow too which is my favourite thing when it comes to Blushes. The powder is light and doesn't look cakey on the skin, also because of it being light in consistency and colour you can apply as much as you like and it won't look 'overdone' or 'too much'. As with all Blushes that I have, I needed to top up on this throughout the day as it did fade on my cheeks but I have to do that with every Blush I have so that's not a problem for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This Blush is gorgeous and such good quality for an even better price, I definitely would recommend them and I will be adding more of them to my collection for sure.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Baked Box Collection Blushes are £3.99 and there are 4 shades available.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Blushes are available in <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/search?q=beauty+uk&searchsubmit=Search" target="_blank">Superdrug</a> in store and online and also from the Beauty Uk Cosmetics website - <a href="http://www.beautyukcosmetics.com/products/face/baked-box-collection" target="_blank"><i>link</i></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Beauty UK is a brand which I have never really swayed towards before, I did once pick up one of their blushers as it looked really pretty but I never got round to using it. I was in <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/" target="_blank">Superdrug</a> recently and did notice that Beauty UK has more products in and had changed the packaging of some of the products too, although I didn't purchase anything from the range (silly me). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RFC_BZGZleY/UkWIj7cHDWI/AAAAAAAABA8/T7-R6tIic3E/s1600/Fotor0927142737.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RFC_BZGZleY/UkWIj7cHDWI/AAAAAAAABA8/T7-R6tIic3E/s400/Fotor0927142737.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beauty UK have recently released a new palette range, these are called 'Posh Palette', altogether there are 3 different palette's in the collection, there is a palette suited for everyone and for whatever look you would like to create their is a palette for that. The palette that I have here is No.2 - Masquerade.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tfLDXv0Qz2o/UkWOsiF-HmI/AAAAAAAABBU/1EcYIHc_Nu4/s1600/BVLJa8JCQAAm-nk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tfLDXv0Qz2o/UkWOsiF-HmI/AAAAAAAABBU/1EcYIHc_Nu4/s320/BVLJa8JCQAAm-nk.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Masquerade is a very Autumnal coloured palette, the first row of shadows are quite light and sheer with flecks of glitter in them then the last row are much more pigmented and are a lot darker shades compared to the first row. These colours are perfect for Autumn/Winter and also for nights out or even just for everyday use as they aren't that highly pigmented that they look too much on the eyes, they are just right and look really natural and pretty. My favourite shade of them all is the second shade on the left of the bottom row, I love that kind of burgundy/dark pink colour for the colder months.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gfuajAbR39o/UkWRAZX5zHI/AAAAAAAABBg/WHOJOWPSDb0/s1600/BVLBIYKCYAEZpZJ.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gfuajAbR39o/UkWRAZX5zHI/AAAAAAAABBg/WHOJOWPSDb0/s400/BVLBIYKCYAEZpZJ.jpg" width="297" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here you can see the pigmentation of the eyeshadows. I think the first row of shadows are definitely more for highlighting or just to sweep over your lids if you are just aiming for a sheer but natural look on the eyes. As the swatches go down you can see the bottom row's pigmentation difference, they give a lot more colour but not anything overpowering, The black shadow is definitely the most pigmented of them all as you can see. Majority of the bottom row are also matte shadows apart from the second and fifth shade. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you have oily eyelids then I definitely recommend like when using any eye shadow that you use a primer as you will more than likely get creasing, with a primer the colours will also stand out more too. If you do not have oily lids then I don't think you will have any problem or have to prime your lids unless you wanted the colours to stand out more then a primer would be needed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Posh Palette's are priced at £5.99 which is a total bargain for a palette as nice as this one. There are 3 Palette's available so you will definitely find one that suits the look that you go for/want to go for.</div>

I am not really a fan of wearing fake lashes any more, I did go through a phase of wearing them everyday for a few months about a year/two years ago but since then I haven't really worn any I just don't feel the need to. Anyway so I won some Eylure lashes about a year ago I think it was and I had never tried them, then last week I decided to try them out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TRWcOQTeBm4/UjiqspARv4I/AAAAAAAAA94/YFkykK2oDCw/s1600/Fotor0917192516.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TRWcOQTeBm4/UjiqspARv4I/AAAAAAAAA94/YFkykK2oDCw/s400/Fotor0917192516.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The lashes I won where the Eylure Ultra Naturals, I won these through a Facebook competition on Eylure's <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EylureOfficial?fref=ts" target="_blank">Facebook </a> page along with another set of lashes. I was more drawn to these ones than the other's which I was sent as these are as stated 'natural' looking whereas the others where quite thick. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MLvYyisYjSE/Ujirgijcn6I/AAAAAAAAA-E/ue_VILuQIaE/s1600/BT0Z0B5CYAEVxu_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MLvYyisYjSE/Ujirgijcn6I/AAAAAAAAA-E/ue_VILuQIaE/s400/BT0Z0B5CYAEVxu_.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lashes are as natural as natural can get, each lash is made from a mixture of brown and black hair which is what also makes them very natural looking. They are very light and I think they would be easy for anyone to apply, I personally have never had a problem with applying lashes and have never found them fiddly or awkward to apply but for those who do these would be perfect for you. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CE6-jN5ly-Q/UjiuTKNqgMI/AAAAAAAAA-Q/YqlPbG4t8vI/s1600/BT0c7uICEAABtez.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CE6-jN5ly-Q/UjiuTKNqgMI/AAAAAAAAA-Q/YqlPbG4t8vI/s320/BT0c7uICEAABtez.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is how the lashes look, I have just applied a bit of mascara over them so that they blend in better with my own lashes and to add a bit more colour to them. They do look really natural and not like false lashes whatsoever, they are really light on the eyes, it doesn't feel like you have any lashes on. I do love the look that they give but I wouldn't wear them everyday, probably for a party or something but other than that no, I like my own lashes and don't feel like I need to wear these. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really would recommend them to anyone especially if it's maybe your first time using false lashes or even if you have used lashes before and just want some natural, pretty ones for during the day or for at work etc..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can buy the Eylure Ultra Naturals from <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Eylure-Ultra-Naturals-Fine_1277779/" target="_blank">Boots</a> and many other places online and also in store. In boots they retail for £5.54 and are around the same price everywhere else. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever worn false lashes before? if you have I would love to know which ones are your favourites.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was in Boot's one day looking at the hair products and decided I wanted to try some sort of oil/serum for the ends of my hair as I noticed they where getting dry. I looked at the Organix range as I had heard so many good things and the first thing I noticed was the Organix Coconut Milk Serum, what was on the bottle sounded good and I checked out online reviews of it on my phone and they where all good reviews. First thing I did was smell the serum and it smelt gorgeous so obviously with good reviews and a lovely smell I went and purchased it straight away.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LIPtm5pDQjo/Uii0b9A6wCI/AAAAAAAAA9k/t57V7sCDkmU/s1600/Fotor0905174131.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LIPtm5pDQjo/Uii0b9A6wCI/AAAAAAAAA9k/t57V7sCDkmU/s400/Fotor0905174131.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nourishing Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage Serum</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
'<i>Indulge your senses with this exclusive blend of <b>coconut milk</b> to help nourish your hair, while <b>ultra whipped egg white proteins </b>help add strength and elasticity, along with <b>weightless coconut oils </b>for added hydration and balance'.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been using this serum for about 3 months now and the results have been amazing, I have just been applying it to the very ends of my hair (a little bit goes a long way) to make it stronger and after using it for just a few weeks my hair was a lot stronger and had grew. After a few months and still using it now it has made the ends of my hair where I apply it is so much stronger and has grew quite a lot. I can't imagine not using it now and will continue to use it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would recommend this to anyone really whether you have thick or thin hair and whatever length as it does make your hair grow, I think this is due to the protein that is in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I was never one for moisturising my skin on a regular basis up until a few months ago. I noticed my skin getting dry when I started fake tanning constantly throughout the summer/good weather and thought to myself I really need to start moisturising as my skin was getting so irritated and my tan was starting to look horrible because of my dry skin. I was in Tesco one day and noticed that the Nivea products where on offer so I decided to try the Nivea Body Moisturiser for Dry Skin to see what it was like, In the past I have used Nivea moisturisers and found them to be quite good so I thought why not try one again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Vj2edx6JGxU/UideCNi1W2I/AAAAAAAAA9E/RIpqwDbr1ns/s1600/Fotor0904172115.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Vj2edx6JGxU/UideCNi1W2I/AAAAAAAAA9E/RIpqwDbr1ns/s400/Fotor0904172115.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am now on my second bottle and decided to pick up the 400ml as it was on offer and there's more in it than the last one I purchased which I think was 250ml. This moisturiser does basically what it says on the tin (or in this case bottle), It has deep moisture and is very long lasting, it keeps my skin feeling soft all day if I apply of the morning and improves the way it looks and the almond oil in the moisturiser gives a nice sheen to the skin. The cream is very light and doesn't feel heavy on the skin like some moisturisers can, it also dry's really fast and leaves a nice shine to the skin. It also works really well over my fake tan, it doesn't strip the colour or ruin the look of the tan in fact it makes the tan look much better which is great and it saves me having to use a different moisturiser for over my tan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would highly recommend this moisturiser to anyone who has dry skin or who fake tan's on a regular basis. It's my favourite moisturiser at the moment and I will continue to use it for a long time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Nivea Moisturiser is available to buy from <a href="http://www.boots.com/" target="_blank">Boots</a> and <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/" target="_blank">Superdrug</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The prices vary depending on where you buy it from as there are always offers on and if you do have a Bodycare store near you I think they do it slightly cheaper.</div>

Ok so I am very excited to tell you all about the extensions that I was recently sent from <a href="http://www.lushhairextensions.co.uk/Clip_In_Hair_Extensions/Shop_By_Style/Ulimate_Full_Head_Sets#path=145" target="_blank">Lush Hair Extensions</a>. I jumped at the chance of trying out some extensions from Lush as I had heard so many good things about the company. I had the opportunity to try out the Ultimate Full Head Set or the Deluxe Full Head Set, I had a little look on the website and decided to go for the Ultimate Full Head Set. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6xakwymIhtk/UiYbb8bpqPI/AAAAAAAAA8M/QWtq9tY4k9g/s1600/BTQTNkRCAAA-8e8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6xakwymIhtk/UiYbb8bpqPI/AAAAAAAAA8M/QWtq9tY4k9g/s400/BTQTNkRCAAA-8e8.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The extensions arrived at my door a few weeks ago so I have had a few weeks to properly try them out and to tell you what I really think of them. They came packaged like this which is how all extensions that I have had are packaged, Oh and when they came through the post they where in a pink bag which was gorgeous. On the back of the card it tells you about the extensions, how to maintain them and how many pieces their are. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qL3LfAu5NjY/UiYcJyoCwdI/AAAAAAAAA8U/WaTC8utZDJo/s1600/BTQTR6BCEAEt9-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qL3LfAu5NjY/UiYcJyoCwdI/AAAAAAAAA8U/WaTC8utZDJo/s400/BTQTR6BCEAEt9-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to go for the 20" hair extensions in the shade #4 which is what I always have when getting hair extensions. There are 10 weft pieces, 18 clips per set and the clips are already attached. The first thing that I noticed with these extensions was that the clips are larger than the Clip Hair Extensions which I was sent but they are just as good and grip onto the hair really well, I also noticed that the ends of these extensions look a lot different to any other extensions that I have had before, they are cut into a blunt shape which I actually do like, they look much neater this way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3udqDOoXBxg/UiYdoqm_GjI/AAAAAAAAA8g/UQ9-7VnQn2E/s1600/BTQTIL1CcAEWmh-.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3udqDOoXBxg/UiYdoqm_GjI/AAAAAAAAA8g/UQ9-7VnQn2E/s400/BTQTIL1CcAEWmh-.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a before and after picture, of my hair naturally then of my hair with the Lush Hair Extensions in. I put in the full head set and the first thing I noticed was that they didn't feel heavy which is a good start, they also looked really natural and glossy but not overly glossy which I find some hair extensions do look too glossy so they can tend to look fake. With the ends being cut differently to other extensions that I have had I found that this made the overall look a lot neater and tidier. I did notice that these extensions didn't seem as long as my usual 20" ones that I have but I think this may be because of the way they are cut at the ends which I don't mind at all. Another thing I noticed was that the extensions are thick from top to bottom, whereas my Clip Hair Extensions tend to go thinner at the ends which is ok but I prefer thickness from top to bottom which is what the Lush Extensions give. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zPhJf5gZ_uk/UiYfx_yWRDI/AAAAAAAAA8s/QD5hkmAt3rQ/s1600/BTQTKinCUAANLmn.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zPhJf5gZ_uk/UiYfx_yWRDI/AAAAAAAAA8s/QD5hkmAt3rQ/s400/BTQTKinCUAANLmn.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not a very good photo but as you can see from the extensions from the back they aren't thin at the ends and they give a lot of thickness. I love the way they look and will definitely repurchase in the future if they wash well, I have yet to wash them yet and that's usually when I become disappointed with extensions but I have a feeling I won't be disappointed with these ones. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Ultimate Full Head Hair Extensions can be brought from the <a href="https://www.lushhairextensions.co.uk/Ulimate_Full_Head_Sets/20_quot_Clip_In_Human_Hair_Extensions_ULTIMATE_FULL_HEAD_4_Dark_Brown" target="_blank">Lush Hair Extensions</a> website and they are £94.99</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When these extensions arrived last week I could not wait to put them in, I put them in literally five minutes after they arrived and loved them instantly. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The extensions are the Deluxe set shade (4) which contains 170g of hair. I chose the 20" because my hair naturally is around 18" and these are the length I usually get when I buy extensions anyway. They come in this clear packaging which most extensions do and the piece of card which has on the company's name, about the extensions and that they are 100% remy human hair which is the best kind of hair for extensions.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On the back of the piece of card it gives you a step by step guide on how to attach the clip in extensions which I think is great for those people who don't know how, and it also tells you how to remove the hair extensions too which again I think is good for those people who don't know how, I haven't ever had any of this information on hair extensions that I have brought in the past so the fact that these extensions do have this is a bonus, even though I already know how to use them etc.. I still think it's a good thing to do. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first thing I noticed once I took the extensions out of the packet was that they where tied together like this, now these already have clips on which intrigued me, my usual extensions are just one big weft which I have to cut down and then sew the clips on myself which can sometimes be a pain and these ones already have the clips on which I like and with the weft I usually buy it is wrapped around a small piece of cardboard which is ok but I do prefer how these where tied like this.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now here is my hair without any extensions or any styling done to it, as you can see it's long but quite fine. My hair is my natural colour but does tend to look different under certain lighting/on camera. The very ends of my hair are lighter than the top, they always have been I'm not sure why so I tend to match my extensions to the top of my hair. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is my hair styled and with the extensions in, as you can see they make a lot of difference to my hair. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because of there being a lot of hair I thought it would be heavy on my head if I wore all the wefts as usually I just wear two or three wefts, any more</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> than that hurts my head. I put them all in and they did not hurt my head at all and they also didn't feel heavy. I have had these for a week now and have wore them everyday, I can honestly say they have felt fine. I love the clips on them as they are a bit smaller to the ones I am use to and they are really secure and sturdy. These do match my hair well, in the pictures for some reason the ends of my hair look black but they aren't. Because they extensions are 100% remy human hair you can use heat on them and style them however you like, I just tend to keep mine straight I don't like to use heat on my extensions but occasionally I will curl them.</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I really would recommend these extensions for people with fine hair or even thick hair as normal extensions don't tend to have enough hair in them for thicker hair but these will be perfect for you. Obviously I can't say how they last etc.. because I've only had them a week so I will be doing another post in a couple of months to show you how they look and what I think of them then. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you want the perfect messy bun within minutes then you will love this. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Beauty Works Messy Beehive Bun came in the post last week along with the <a href="http://www.chantelleilace.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/beauty-works-flower-braid-head-band.html" target="_blank">Flower Braid Head Band </a> and I knew straight away when I saw it that it would be the perfect messy bun. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was just as excited receiving this as I was the braid, probably more excited in fact. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I don't have thick hair so I find it hard to create the perfect messy bun, even with using extensions. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jJzuYWd7Qug/UciQ5DQ-m0I/AAAAAAAAAyI/xNzdwCrnoEY/s1600/11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jJzuYWd7Qug/UciQ5DQ-m0I/AAAAAAAAAyI/xNzdwCrnoEY/s400/11.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bun is 100% synthetic fibre hair but doesn't look like the usual tacky shiny synthetic at all, it looks just like real hair. It is the perfect size, not too big and not too small. I have the shade Hot Toffee (4) which blends in perfectly with my hair colour.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bun has two combs inside it which slide into your own hair to keep it in place and it also has a drawstring on too which is to tighten over your own bun that you make with your own hair so that it stays on securely. I first made a low side bun with my own hair then popped the messy bun over it and secured it more with hair grips. When I done the high bun on top of my head I just done the same thing I did with the low side bun. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is perfect for the summer and festivals as it is easy to use,doesn't take long to attach and looks really nice and natural. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Here I have done two styles of how the bun can be used. I personally prefer the low bun but it can be used for a high bun too, it depends on whichever you prefer. The bun could also be used for a low bun at the back of the head or even mid way up towards the top of the head. You could also use it with the flower braid which I think would look nice when put around a low bun for the summer time. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Messy Beehive Bun is £29.99 on the Beauty Works website -<i> <a href="http://beautyworksonline.com/buns.html#p=3" target="_blank">link</a></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is available in 16 shades so you are sure to find one that matches your hair colour. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I highly recommend this bun, I love it and I think that you will too.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was so excited when this lovely item came through the post this week (along with another lovely hair accessory which will be in my next post) and I literally tried it out as soon as it arrived, I couldn't wait!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZUsIX5Bi4z4/UcZLyf6KD6I/AAAAAAAAAwY/WSpQcx27DIk/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZUsIX5Bi4z4/UcZLyf6KD6I/AAAAAAAAAwY/WSpQcx27DIk/s400/3.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are so many festivals this year and if you are a festival chick you will definitely need to buy this to take with you. When I opened the box that this was in I instantly fell in love with it because of how pretty it looks, the flowers are so cute and this picture doesn't really do them any justice as they look even better in real life. The hair of the plait is synthetic hair I believe but it doesn't look like synthetic hair at all, we all know synthetic as being that cheap, shiny, tacky looking hair that doesn't look real whatsoever and I think this is what scares a lot of us when it comes to buying synthetic hair but honestly this looks so real and when on my hair blends in really well. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3u8h3kG8f6w/UcZO39OX6wI/AAAAAAAAAww/KTMEPCafrKw/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3u8h3kG8f6w/UcZO39OX6wI/AAAAAAAAAww/KTMEPCafrKw/s320/2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The braid has an elastic part at the back which makes it able to fit any size head whether you have a pea head like me (it seems so small) or a bigger head, this will fit you and the elastic isn't uncomfortable neither is the braid itself, it feels really comfortable and you can't even tell it's there until you look in the mirror, it is so lightweight.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are so many ways that you can style your hair with the braid. I decided to do mine big and straight but slightly messy. On the first photo I have put the braid over my hair so that it pushes into my hair and gives some messy volume at the top, with doing this style you will see the elastic at the back of my head because it is placed over my hair rather than under whereas the second photo I have placed the braid under my hair at the back and sides and added more volume into it, by doing this it hides the elastic. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are so many styles that you can do such as a fishtail plait/braid (which I haven't got the hang of doing yet), you could do a high big bun and wrap the braid around it or maybe even do beach waves or big curls then just add the braid into your style like I have on the photo's. There are so many ways to style it, I'm sure you will find one that suits you. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have the shade Hot Toffee (4), there are 10 shades available, you will be sure to find one that will match your hair colour. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the moment the Flower Braid is on offer for £7.99 on the Beauty Works website - <i><a href="http://beautyworksonline.com/accessories/flower-braid.html" target="_blank">link</a></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Purchase one, I promise you won't regret it, it's perfect for summer, the price is great, and Pixie Lott has one which is very similar, so what you waiting for?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am a bit late writing this as I did get this product in January and took the photo's in January (as you can tell by the snow) but here goes..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Not4Cdg6iQE/UaTx2CP1lfI/AAAAAAAAAtM/v-oruLmQgLU/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Not4Cdg6iQE/UaTx2CP1lfI/AAAAAAAAAtM/v-oruLmQgLU/s400/1.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This here is the best highlight ever, I'm saying this even though it's the only highlight that I have used but it really is amazing and I know that a lot of people agree on the fact that it is one of the best. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I heard about the Mary Lou Manizer through watching Shaaanxo's youtube videos (she's my favourite) and I knew I needed to get it straight away. I purchased it not long after Christmas from feelunique.com and it arrived a few days after. I instantly loved it like I knew I would and started using it straight away and have used it everyday since. I had never used a highlight until this one and I can't believe the difference it makes to my face, I look more fresh, awake and glowing.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Mary Lou is very highly pigmented and you only need to use the smallest amount. The colour is hard to explain, it has flecks of gold and silver in it and is very pretty. There is a lot of product (8.5g) which will last a very long time especially when not a lot of product needs to be used. I have used it everyday since I've had it and hardly any has been used. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I couldn't imagine not using this now, my make up looks so plain without it. I don't think I'd try any other highlight because this really is everything you'd want in a highlight, The only problem I've had is that the pan the highlight is in detached from the case and I never glued it back to the case and now it has smashed so it doesn't look like it does in the photo's now but it is still usable. If this happens to you I'd recommend that you glue it back into the case which I should of done. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the lovely ladies at Wow Pamper Lounge gave me the opportunity to pick some products off of there website that I liked the look of and would like to try out so I decided to choose the Professional Eyebrow Stencil Kit as I have never used a powder for my brows before, I have always used a brow pencil. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The packaging that the item came in was a pink wrapping paper which was lovely and I was so excited to open them, When I did I was instantly impressed when I saw this lovely little pink bag. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the bag was the brow kit in the shade 'Dark Brown', A small applicator and the stencils (I didn't take a photo of those, I had tried them out and I couldn't get the brow powder off them, they looked too unclean to photograph lol).</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I chose the dark brown as my eyebrows are virtually black and the powder on the right was a perfect match for me. I found the applicator to work quite well although I think if the brush had been a bit smaller it would of worked better, for me anyway. The powder is very highly pigmented and I didn't need to use a lot which is great, I hate powders that have no pigmentation, what is the point of those.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I did try the stencils out but because my eyebrows are thicker than them they didn't work for me, I think that they would be perfect for someone with thinner brows who need more shape to them. I can't really say how the lasting power is as I didn't wear this for a full day but I imagine that it would stay quite well.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You can see the difference that the powder makes to my brows and how much fuller they look when filled it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I do like it but I have been so use to using a pencil and I know that it wont budge at all, all day and I can create the shape I want to my brow whereas with the powder I can't seem to do that so personally I don't think I'll be converted to using brow powders just yet but maybe in the future who knows!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The brow kit costs £15 there are 3 shades available and they can be purchased from the <a href="https://wow-pamperlounge.com/shop/eyebrow-filler-powder/" target="_blank">wow pamper lounge website </a></span></div>

<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-aXjyrikFoZ4/UVxk8oJhHgI/AAAAAAAAAqc/iGJ2dTNwXiM/s1600/nivea.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-aXjyrikFoZ4/UVxk8oJhHgI/AAAAAAAAAqc/iGJ2dTNwXiM/s400/nivea.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I first heard about the new Nivea Lip Butter's from seeing a few blog posts about them then I saw them in boots not long after. I wasn't really interested in buying them as I usually just buy any lip balms, mainly the vaseline ones which I find don't work very well anyway but I still buy them, pointless really. Anyway I saw these in Sainsbury's last week and knew I was in need of a new lip balm. This one attracted me because I love the smell of raspberry's, as soon as I smelt it I fell in love so purchased it straight away. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have to say it does smell lovely and is very addictive. I am one of these people who is constantly putting on lip balm when I'm at home, I'll put it on repeatedly for about an hour which really is probably not the best thing to do. It is moisturising but I don't find it any different to the vaseline ones apart from it smells and looks much better and is obviously a butter and not vaseline but I know I will continue to buy it because of the scent.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are £1.99 and be found it literally most stores such as Boots, Superdrug and Supermarkets. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last week I really wanted to go to Sutton as I hadn't been since last year, it looked so nice all covered in snow, yes we had more snow. I love the snow but we had quite a lot January/Feb time and to have it again and lots of it in what's meant to be spring is annoying and it just becomes a pain. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I use lip balms constantly and when I mean constantly I can sit there for hours keep applying it until I get a horrible taste in my mouth from using too much, it doesn't help when it smells nice too like this one does that I purchased the other day from Sainsbury's. I had heard about the new nivea lip butters when they first came out but didn't really smell them until the other day and I fell in love with this one and had to get it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am in love and have been since January with my highlighter, I had never used one before as I always steered towards a very matte looking face but I hate that now and I watched a you-tuber use this one, I ordered it straight away and haven't stopped using it ever since, I feel weird when I am not wearing it, like there's something missing on my face.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love love love and am probably in love with Costa! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I go there at least once a week and love it. I didn't like these bourbons when I first tried one but then I tried one again and thought it was ok, I think it depends on my mood whether I like it or not. They are so huge and can be quite sickly but I love taking photo's of them. I wouldn't have them on a regular basis, I much prefer the hot chocolate. </span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">I first heard about the Lip Laquer's I think just before Christmas or maybe a bit before that, I came across a few blog posts on them and couldn't wait for them to be available in store to buy so I could try them out. The reviews I saw where pretty good and one thing I noticed was that the lacquer's where super pigmented which I love, I hate lip products that are sheer and have no pigmentation. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xwbEL1f6XBU/USO47GRaj8I/AAAAAAAAAog/iUOQMXvcOmo/s1600/apoc+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xwbEL1f6XBU/USO47GRaj8I/AAAAAAAAAog/iUOQMXvcOmo/s640/apoc+4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">All together there are eight different colour lacquer's. The shade range isn't too bad but I think maybe it could be a little better. The darker shades do look really nice but I don't tend to wear reds or bright shades, I always stick to light pink lipstick and sometimes light coral so I didn't purchase any of those and decided to pick up two of the more neutral shades instead because I knew I'd be more likely to wear those. I picked up 'Luna' and 'Nude Eclipse'</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I didn't actually purchase these both at the same time. I decided to first get Luna because it looked like it came across as a coral colour which I love, I tried it on and it doesn't come off as coral at all but I think that's because my lips are naturally really red so I have to use a base to get colours to show up lighter on them. On me it comes off as a very deep orange that stands out, I do like it but it's more of a summer shade so that's when I'll probably wear it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I then read some more reviews of the Lacquers to see some pictures of what the nude shade looked like as I had thought of getting that one next, I liked the look of it so purchased that the next time I went into boots. My idea was that hopefully if this nude suited me that I could wear this a few times now and Luna in the summer but I'm not keen on it at all, there's just something about the colour of it when on that I don't like and it's a funny kind of nude, I may try it out again when I have different make-up on but I can't see myself becoming a fan of it if I'm honest although on some people it does look gorgeous so it is worth trying out. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I think that they are worth trying out, They are very highly pigmented which is great, they don't smell bad and they have a nice glossy finish which can brighten up your face instantly. I haven't tried these out enough to know how long they last on the lips but I'm guessing the darker/brighter colours will probably last longer and may even leave a slight lip stain effect.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When I purchased these they where on offer, I think I got them on an offer of so much off but I'm not 100% sure. They are originally £5.99 and you can buy them from Boots and Super drug, They are currently 3 for 2 on the boots website.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I saw this tag on another blog and thought that I would give it a go :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>1. What is your favourite thing about Christmas? </b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can't really pick one thing. I love getting up really early and opening presents with my family, I also love going to have Christmas dinner and spend time with the rest of my family and just seeing all the Christmas lights that are around, going to the German market, just everything Chrismassy is general. I love snow but we are never guaranteed that and when we do get it it's usually January, I'd love it to snow Christmas day. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I tend to keep my make up the same as usual but this year I think I may wear a darker lip, I'm not sure yet.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think we had a real tree years ago but I don't really remember it much, we have always had fake tree's mainly. It doesn't bother me really, I do think the real trees can look nice but honestly I'm not really bothered if it's real or fake, they both look nice. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hand made cards are lovely and I love making them too but there are so many nice ones in the shop's.

So I'd say cards that are brought, but I do like both. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have always loved bags, even when I wasn't into fashion and clothes I still brought lots of bags and I mean lots. I still have so many bags that I really should sell, some of them haven't even been used. Nowadays I just like a black, small, smart bag, nothing OTT or colourful. I do see some really big bags but I never buy them because I just over fill them, then they end up hurting my arm and I hate carrying a bag in the crook of my arm, it feels like I am carrying a weight around all day, Saying that I do over fill my small bags that's why they end up splitting because the handles can't cope with the weight. The bag pictured is what I got for my 21st birthday from Zara it is called the 'Mini Bowling Bag With Clasp Fastening'.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bag is small but very deep. It fits so much in yet it looks small and sleek. I think it's great for everyday use. It has handles so it can be held or a long strap (that can also he clipped off if you wish to not have it on there) that can go over your shoulder which is what I prefer. It's the first time I have used this bag today and I love it, the only problem I have is that the strap slips off my shoulder but I have that problem with most of my bags anyway when they're new. The quality is amazing which I expect from Zara anyway but I have heard that some of there bags aren't of a very good quality, I can't comment on that as this is the first bag I have had from there. I have my eye on another black bag on there at the moment which I may get but I'm not sure yet.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bag was £29.99 and it was ordered off the <a href="http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/uk/en/zara-neu-W2012/269200/938537/MINI%20BOWLING%20BAG%20WITH%20CLASP%20FASTENING" target="_blank">Zara</a> website. I'm not sure if it is available in store as I don't really visit the stores on a regular basis, I have only been in once but it is still available online. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have tried so many heat protection sprays since from about the age of 12/13, I even use to get my Mum to buy me one from the hairdressers I went to which was £17 and it wasn't even really that good. I am a firm believer of that when using heat on your hair you should always use something to protect your hair from that heat, without that protection your hair will just frazzle, burn and eventually break off especially if you use GHD's as they're so hot, I had this experience when I first started using GHD's and ended up having to have a lot of the length of my hair cut off which is never good if you love having long hair like I do. Now as I said I have tried many heat protection sprays over the past few years and I've never really noticed anything different with them so I just ended up picking up any that smelt nice in the end and just used that, then I purchased one of the Lee Stafford Flat Iron sprays from the Clothes Show in 2011, I didn't use it until a few months after I purchased it and I only ran out a few days ago, it lasts so long. This protection mist is amazing, it helps my hair stay in good condition, add's more shine, and helps prevent the heat of GHD's from ruining my hair it's also great for using on my hair before I blow dry too which is what I use it mostly for now as I rarely straighten my hair at all nowadays. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I went to the Clothes Show again this year and that is where I picked up these three bottles. The Lee Stafford stand is always the first stand I go to when I go to CSL because I love the products and I am a very big fan of Lee Stafford and this time I got to meet him and had a picture with him (OMG!). The deals that are on are always so good, I got four products for £12 which is such a great deal and I also picked up the dark dry shampoo to try and may I say that it is incredible. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nowadays I mainly use the heat protection mist on my hair extensions and on my hair before blow drying it, it is great on hair extensions and helps keep them in good condition so they last longer. The scent of the spray is what I love the most, it smells like all the other Lee Stafford products, quite masculine but not too masculine and once settled it leaves my hair smelling so sweet. When you spray the mist it doesn't drizzle out it gives a huge spray that's light so it can cover a large amount of hair and you don't really need to use much.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You can pick up the mist from most Boot's stores and also on the Boot's website where you can also purchase all the rest of the Lee Stafford products. I would highly recommend the volume shampoo and the hairspray too if you want big hair, they work so well together and give a lot of volume. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been searching for the perfect red lip colour for so long now and I think I may have found it. I am always cautious about red lipstick as some can give the look of a clown and some shades can look very tarty and cheap too. I did use to have a red lipstick that suited me so well but it was out of a make-up kit I had and I threw it away. I saw the matte lipsticks that Kate Moss brought out for rimmel months ago and had my eye on this red then but I wasn't too sure of it, the reviews where good and the pictures I saw of people with it on looked great but I just still wasn't 100% sure, then I saw <a href="http://www.zoella.co.uk/" target="_blank">Zoella</a> wearing it in one of her youtube videos and it looked amazing on her. Every time I went into boots I swatched it and went to buy it but didn't end up purchasing it then Saturday I saw boots had 3 for 2 on again so I just thought what the hell why not try it so I picked up the red in number 107. I tried the lipstick on once I got home and it applies so nicely, it is matte but not too matte that it looks really dry and doesn't dry out the lips either, I would recommend applying a lip liner on with it though as it does look so much better with one, I purchased one from rimmel which I will talk about in a moment. On it's own the lipstick looks very striking, well on my lips anyway, it will look slightly different on everyone depending on your natural lip colour. I honestly wasn't keen on it without using my lip liner underneath it was too bold for me.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the lip liner I picked up to wear with the lipstick, I loved this lip liner as soon as I saw Sammi a.k.a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/beautycrush" target="_blank">beauty crush</a> wearing it in one of her youtube videos and I knew I had to have it. The lip liner is 063 black tulip and it's by rimmel too. This is a very 'black cherry' shade which I love. This applies very softly and is a lot creamier than any other lip liner I have used, it is so easy to apply. On it's own it gives a nice matte dark deep red finish, it can be worn on it's own or with the lipstick over, I just put a thin layer of the lipstick over and it gives a perfect red lip which is dark and doesn't look OTT it looks so classy and is perfect for over the Christmas period and the rest of the winter months. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think this colour anyone could pull off whether you are pale, tanned or darker. It does look slightly different under certain lighting on photo's but really there isn't much of a difference just maybe slightly darker looking in some lights to others. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had both of these products from my local boots which have 3 for 2 on at the moment but you can get them from anywhere that stocks rimmel such as superdrug, supermarkets or even online.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am a very very big fan of Yankee Candle's so when I was told that there was 25% off the Christmas Yankee Candles in my local Smart Idea's cards and gifts store I had to get there quick!. I had a sniff of most of the Christmas candles that where there but none really took my fancy, then I noticed the Christmas cupcake one's and I knew I'd love these because I love the vanilla cupcake candles. I gave them a sniff and was in love. They smell very similar to the vanilla cupcake but there is something a little different about the Christmas cupcake but I can't quite put my finger on what it might be. I had a look at what was to offer and I was stuck between getting the samplers pictured above or the tarts, I heard that the tarts last longer but I haven't got an oil burner and couldn't find one I liked so decided to get a few of the samplers. I then thought I have no candle holders so I had a look around smart ideas and my boyfriend pointed out the lovely candle holder which is pictured above, I thought it was so cute and simple and knew that I had to have it. The samplers cost £1.35 each and the Yankee Candle holder was £2.95. I was so pleased and may even got back for more, I think I'm getting a candle addiction they smell so good, I will definitely be lighting these nearer to Christmas day. </span></div>

A few weeks after entering the give away Charlotte of Carlottasbeautyspot tweeted me saying that I was one of the winners, I sent her my details and told her which tan I would like to review (I had a choice between the lotion or spray I chose the lotion) then about 2 weeks after the tan arrived, I didn't try the tan straight away as I was finishing off my beloved Lauren's Way Tan which I love. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I tried the tan out last month and have been using it ever since. When I applied it for the first time I was nearly put off by how highly perfumed it was but after using it several times I have got use to the scent and don't find it a problem now. The lotion is tinted so you can see where you are putting it which is great I love tans that have this, it does apply really nicely, I use it on a mitt. The colour pay off is really natural and a really nice colour but once I've had a second shower of the day the colour tends to fade a lot which I do find with most tan's I have used anyway. To get a dark colour I would recommend 2 coats, It fades nicely and doesn't dry out the skin, I think it does include a lot of oil well it feels like it does anyway which is good as it keeps the skin moisturised and soft, the only problem I do have with this tan is that it doesn't seem to dry, I have been using Lauren's way tan for so long and that dries instantly, I could put my clothes straight on after applying that and go out to wherever I needed whereas the St Tropez I feel sticky and it doesn't seem to dry whatsoever until I have woke up the next morning and it's dry then but I still feel slightly icky. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I don't think I would personally purchase this Tan myself but only because of that it doesn't dry and the colour pay off is nice but isn't as dark as I would of liked within using one coat, I'm not sure if there is a tan which does give a pretty dark pay off after one coat but I don't really like applying two coats of tan unless I have to but other than that it is a lovely tan and I would recommend anyone to give it a go and see if you like it, for some people it may be perfect for some it may not but as they say you won't know if you don't try!</span><br />
