Put your hand up if you love first impressions posts! *Raises hand*. First impressions has always been a regular feature on my blog so when I got the opportunity to try out Marc Jacobs Beauty's Highliner I couldn't wait to start writing. If you knew me about six years ago then you would know that I was absolutly obsessed with eyeliner - particularly brightly coloured ones. So you can imagine my excitement when I saw the swatches of these liners!

Read MoreI've been trying to get my blogging mojo back... So when I was invited to the We Heart Mondays launch event - I thought it would be the perfect place to feel inspired again. And I have to say it didn't disappoint. For those of you who don't know We Heart Mondays is a collective of influential women who decided to set up both virtual and physical spaces for creative women to get together and network, learn, inspire and more.
Read MoreAm I right when I say that we all want our eyebrows to be on fleek? Why did I even ask - of course we all do! That's why I am eager to share with you all a new eyebrow product by Billion Dollar Brows called the universal brow pencil. I've tried many brow pencils before some not so great and some really life changing ones. It really is true that beautiful brows can change your whole entire look!
Read MoreIt's no secret that I'm not a foundation type of girl... Well I haven't been for around five years. My main reason is because I can never find one that is the correct shade for my skin or leaves my skin looking flawless. I've tried cheap ones, expensive ones, mousse ones and liquid ones - nothing just ever gives me the finish I like. Frequent reminders of my fifteen year old gothic phase haunt my foundation memories and the walls of my parent's house. So I came to the conclusion that I should just never wear it.
Read MoreDId you know that I'm a bit of a lazy girl? Well I'd actually rather say "low-maintenance".

That's why I decided to team up with Seventeen and 11 other beauty bloggers to bring you a few of my favourite makeup hacks as a lazy girl.

If you've been reading my blog for a while now you probably know about my relationship with KISS cosmetics and how every so often I do a little review or giveaway. Well, because of this I got to attend their Pixie Lott X Kiss Cosmetics PR party.
Read MoreWhat girl doesn't love a good compact set? I don't know about you but I find compact sets so helpful. Not only because they fit neatly into my on-the-go makeup bag but I also have two staple products that are only taking up the size of one. I haven't used that many compact duos in the past however after trying out the Joan Collins lipsticks I couldn't say no to another one paired with a powder (which I haven't even tried out yet).
Read MoreWhere would a girl be without a trusty lipstick or two? Having a range of lipsticks in different finishes and shades really allows you to create as many different looks as your heart desires. Lipsticks can either really define your look and make it what it is or just add a subtle finishing touch that is the cherry on top of your makeup.
Read MoreI haven't been to a beauty event in a while... In fact the last one I went to was the Juvadent beauty event in January so when Johnson and Johnson invited me to their summer beauty event I couldn't say no. For those of you who have been living under a rock for the past century Johnson and Johnson are pretty much the kings of the pharmaceutical and skincare industry who have brought us brands like Neutrogena, Piz Buin and Compeed.
