"I'm a little teapot short and stout"

Hey dolls,

I LOVE THIS NECKLACE. ITS SO FRICKIN CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw this in the Avon catalogue and I had to have it.I love quirky, funky and different jewellery. I've had a few out of the ordinary (for me) pieces from Avon, like my bird in a cage and my robin's egg with the bird inside. I clearly like necklaces with a surprise in the middle haha.

Garnier Face Wipes

Hey dolls,

Garnier Skin Naturals Soft Essentials Rose  Face Wipes
£1.75 (half price)

On a jaunt to tesco on the hunt for some Rimmel make up items (which you can see here) I came across these face wipes. Whenever I don't have to pay full price for something I'm all over it, I mean who isn't? Sometimes it's to my detriment because sometimes I 'll pick up something whether I need it or not, I just cant ignore a deal...don't judge me haha.

Now we all know that I swear by Simple face wipes, they're all I've used for the past few years.
Even though I'm not the biggest fan of rose scented items it wasn't an over powering rose scent, they were half price and I was in desperate need of some make up wipes.

They weren't as moist as the Simple wipes but they got the job done well. In fact I did a make up look on myself using aquacolour and greasepaint, if you're a make up artist/student or a lover of SFX make up or face painting you know these items are quite the bitch to get off. I used these to remove the brunt of the make up and I was pleasantly surprised how well they got it off.

Another good thing I like about these is that after I used them I didn't have the urge to want to scratch off my skin or feel like Id just removed a layer of skin, cos with various face wipes Ive used from other brands I've had terrible reactions to. That's why I stick to simple because I have really sensitive skin.

ColorTrend Valentine's lipstick

Hey dolls,

Now I know its waaaaaaay passed Valentine's day but these lipsticks are still available, so yeah...

My love for AVON ColorTrend lipsticks is growing...I think 99% of the time when I do my make up I wear Rich Ruby lipstick which you can see here.

Last year ColorTrend lipstick packaging changed which I was very excited about, now no offence to Avon but I thought the older packaging (which you can see here) was a little tacky looking. But I m happy with the new packaging.

£3.75
 They had a seriously good deal on, Buy 1 get 2 free.

Valentine's Day packaging
I really liked that they put the hearts on the packaging, I was like "So cute" haha.

The colours I got in the deal were Heartbeat Red, Hot Pink Love and Flirt.

 Heartbeat Red
LIMITED EDITION
Glittery ruby red with gold flecks of glitter.

 Hot Pink Love
LIMITED EDITION
Bright frosty almost bubble gum pink with gold flecks.

Now this pink is a little too bright/light for me but I'm gonna work with it by adding a darker pink/purple lip liner and gloss.

 Flirt
A fleshy coral-y peach.

This is not one of the Valentine's day lipstick although with the name you'd think otherwise. I wasn't feeling all the LE shades so opted for this one, trying to shy away from usual colour choices.

L-R: Heartbeat Read, Hot Pink Love, Flirt

So like I said, I'm really loving these lipsticks and would advise you all to go try at least one shade.They're reasonably priced, good colour pay off and don't dry out the lips.

The limited edition shaded are still available.
