London Photo Diary

All photos on this post had been taken on an iPhone so excuse the poor quality of the photos!

Me and my sister decided to whizz my mum of to London for the night for her birthday, where we had lots of surprises arranged for her! We started of with some lunch and shopping, which wasn't the best of ideas to do particularly on pay day as I was poor for the rest of the month :( After shopping we surprised my my mum with the IceBar which was such a laugh and totally recommend! We then went and seen Jersey Boys as being a family who adores musicals! I didn't know what to expect but i've seen many musicals and Jersey Boys is definitely up there with my top favourites! 

Estee Lauder - Mascara Review

Estee Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara - £22

Well where do I start about this mascara! Finding the perfect mascara is a bit like finding the right man, it can take years of trial and errors, but once discovered you should never let it go. 

This mascara is hands down one of the best mascaras which I have ever used! This mascara  gives your lashes outrageous volume, lifts and curves them, whilst also making them look super bold and stand out without looking clumpy. I don't usually tend to go for expensive mascaras as there are just too many good drugstore mascaras on the market at the fraction of a price. However when I received this mascara as a gift I thought I would give it ago and hands down it beats every mascara which I have ever used! I also found that this particular mascara brush type allowed me to easily to reach the lashes in my inner corners. Also like many other mascaras you have to apply at least two or sometimes even three coats to your lashes, with this Estee Lauder mascara you only have to apply one coat, allowing it to last longer then many others! I received this mascara at christmas and have used it every day since and I am still using the exactly the same product till this day, so the £22 is definitely worth it!

Let me know what you think of this product! Or if there is any Mascara's that you highly recommend?

My Top 5 Favourite Red Lipsticks

Here our a selection of my top five red lipsticks! I think that every woman should have at least one red lipstick in their makeup bag! Red lipstick just never seems to date and gives off such a glamorous, sophisticated look! 

1. Rimmel Kate Moss Wine 107 

I find this colour to be quite different to other reds that I have, that's why I love it so much! This gorgeous colour is just so rich and the matte finish allows it stay on your lips all day long, whilst also leaving a beautiful, flawless matte finish. This colour is perfect for the autumn and especially if you have fair skin. Also the bargain price of £3.99 you can't go wrong! 

 2. Estee Lauder Pure Colour Nectarine 

I received this lipstick as a gift, which I absolutely adore! This colour lippy is more of a warm orangey red compared to the others. It has a very sorting approaching on the lips and is also long-lasting so therefore  there will be no need in keep re-applying like the majority of other lipsticks!

3. Flormar DC2
This red Flormar lipstick was one of my first red lipsticks, which I purchased over in Tenerife when visiting my Grandad and at only 3 euros I couldn't resist! It's such a beautiful gentle red, which is very long lasting as I can go hours and hours without re-applying. It's near enough all gone now so I am having to try and hold out until I go back over to Tenerife.

 

4. Mac Russian Red
The bold, retro looking red has a matte finish, with an intense blue undertone. I find that this lipstick goes on without any problems what so ever, as it goes on without my lips going parched. This is due to the lipstick containing natural oils which gives the lipstick a better texture, as well as allowing the lips to retain moisture.I find that that this lipstick gives off such a glamorous look and I am forever getting compliments on it!

5. Estee Lauder Carthy Red
I find this lipstick to be such a rich colour, with easy application! The texture is super light and extremely creamy, which allows the lipstick to just glide on to your lips without any trouble!
