The Lipstick Tag

Hi guys, I've seen this tag floating around a good while now so thought I would give it go even though I don't own a lot of lipsticks, I tend to find a lipstick I like and stick to it!


1. How many lipsticks do you own?

A very little 18.

2. What was your first ever lipstick?

First one I bought was high tea from Mac I had seen so many swatches of it and loved the shade.

3. What is your favourite lipstick brand?

Ah it's a toss between MAC and Rimmel, but would have to be MAC purely on there coverage a longevity of their lipsticks.

4. What is your most worn lipstick(s)?

At the moment would have to be Rimmel Kate in shade 16 and Loreal color riche in Doutzen's nude.

5. What is your favourite finish of lipstick?

Mac creamsheen has far the best finish.

6. Last lipstick you bought?

Rimmel Kate lipstick in shade 16.

7. How many lip products do you have in your bag?

Just two - Tanya Burr lipgloss in Afternoon Tea and Rimmel Kate Lipstick in shade 16.

8. What is your favourite red?

I don't really wear much red but my favourite would be rimmel colour rush balm 500 the redder the better.

9. How do you store your lipsticks?

I have a small acrylic holder I got off ebay awhile back which is perfect for storing my lipsticks.

10. Currently lusting after?

I've really lusting over MAC sweet & sour. It has been re-released in the states as part of the permanent range but doesn't look like it will be making its way over to Ireland any time soon :(

Wishlist #1

  Hi guys I'm back with a Wishlist that has honestly been building up for awhile! I've been trying hard to stick to my spending ban but there is soo many nice things hitting the shops at the moment that I might have to break it and buy one or two of them (will probably be all of them).

  I have been lusting over these Zara Coats in blue and yellow after seeing them on multiple of people, they are such beautiful colours and fit, but at €99.95 each they aren't cheap but  I have a feeling they will make there way into my wardrobe , oops :) . Next on my radar is the Black Contrast Tote Bag from River Island, I originally wanted the lime green version on ASOS but has since sold out :( . Since Daisy's are in this season how could you not love this daisy necklace and matching chain also from River Island. New look are also killing it at the moment, I really need to invest in a kimono and this Floral Print Kimono is very pretty. This  lilac miss selfridge top doesn't look much in the picture but is really nice and I already have this in yellow. Also from New Look is this Cream Crepe Blazer, I first seen this on NL website but they did not have my size and then it appeared on ASOS but was over €5 dearer?! What is that about?  Finally one my wish list is the white embroidery blouse, it's from the kids section in Zara but I've tried on jackets age 13-14 and they fit size 6 so here's hoping it does fit because it's sooo  nice.

What have you been wish listing lately

Clothing & Beauty Haul // May 2014

Hello lovelies, I've been a bit of a bad blogger lately! It must be we'll over a week since I've blogged (sad face). It's been a crazy few weeks for me so glad there over. I've done a bit of clothes shopping lately, mainly from penny's/ primark. All the items featured are all bought in the last week, so onto what I picked up :)

This top is New Look and only thing I bought there even though they have so many nice tops at the moment  but had to refrain from buying everything. It doesn't look like much on the hanger but it's really gorgeous on  and definitely will get lots of use.

All three pairs of shoes are from Primark/Penneys. I absolutely adore the middle pair, I haven't seen any shoes like these in store so I had to have them when I saw them.

I also picked up these Primark shorts. The print is just beautiful and when I got to the till I was only charged €5 when they are €13 usually. Score!! 

I needed wanted another cami and at €4 where could I go wrong. But I seriously need to stop buying these as I have a a full wardrobe at this stage.

I only wanted these because it had daisy studs ha!

These are so cute and at €1.50 why not?

I had to make a stop at Boots especially as it was 3 for 2. I only needed to go in to get another Real Techniques stippling brush as my old one fell apart. But of course I did not end up getting one thing (shocker).

I picked up these beauties at Tesco for €3!! Yes you heard right, I have since got two more pairs of these. They are great for a night out and got so many compliments with them on. They are re-usable which is a huge bonus. I would definitely pick these up if you can.
