List Love

I have a really big love of lists and I've no idea why that hasn't translated into my blog posts, but I figured it was time it had to happen!
I have notebooks everywhere around my room, in my bags and generally around the house with lists for anything you can imagine.

For my first list I thought I'd break in gently with a general 'Lust List'.

There's so much right now that I'm lusting over and I thought it would be a fun post to make a wish list and see if you share the same ones as me!

Here's my Top 5 Beauty Products to lust over at the moment:

Clarins Odyssey Eye Quartet Mineral Palette

This needs no introduction and absolutely no explanation.

Look at the casing!

And that gold just has to be mine.

Bobbi Brown Desert Twilight Palette

This is an absolutely perfect palette of shimmery nudes.

I haven't even seen it in store yet but still want it.

I have a friend who works for BB, will have to get her to give me a make over ;)

Alpha H Liquid Gold Serum

I've been using the Liquid Gold recently and have been loving the effects.

Ruth from A Model Recommends uses this on the nights she doesn't use the Liquid Gold, for perfect skin I would like to do the same!

Hopefully then all of my scars and spots will permanently leave my face.

Origins Make A Difference Gel

I had a sample of this from the Origins counter and loved it, it's a beautiful light gel that absorbs straight into your skin leaving no residue but fully hydrating.

Loved it!

MAC MSF

M already has this and we recently posted about it on our Sunday posts as I had the chance to use it for a night out.

Obviously as everyone else has I fell in love instantly and would quite happily apply it all over every day!

What a look ;)

So that's what I'm currently lusting over...there's plenty more to come but I thought I'd stick to beauty for now.

Do you love lists? I'm already planning my next one, there are a lot of clothes, shoes and bags I have my eyes on!

What do you have your eye on at the moment?

Review: Giles Deacon for New Look Bronzer palette

So I previously told you I'd bought a few products from the Giles Deacon for New Look make up range, the lip gloss review can be found here

The other product that I bought was the blusher in brown coloured tones, a very good dupe for the classic Bobbi Brown palettes which I currently cannot afford!

So the packaging is quite simple, black and gold with a clear window to show you the product inside. 

The colours of the blusher are a pretty good combination, and the palette is big enough that you can swirl your brush on the lighter colours or darker colours to contour and create the effect you're looking for.

The shades are quite pigmented considering the product is so cheap, only £2.99!

The brush that comes with it isn't up to much but they never normally are in a palette like this.

You can see the effect in the photo below:

A lovely warm toned bronzer that blended really easily with a slight shimmer.

I personally like piling this kind of product on, but it doesn't need it and in fact looks too shimmery particularly for day wear so I've had to tone it down a little...

However I love the results and for such a small price it's worth every penny to keep my Bobbi Brown envy at bay!

If you like the look of this product, we have a whole selection of Giles Deacon make up products in our Giveaway which you can find here :)

Have you tried any products from Giles Deacon's range?

Review: Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Platinum Pink

Good morning everyone :) hope you're having a lush day!

I was suuuuuuuuuuuuper excited when I went shopping the other day to Swindon's McArthur Glen designer outlet and raided the Cosmetics Company store.

I found a few goodies that I'll be using and reviewing over the next week or so.
