Random halloween post!

So this has nothing to do with beauty products but it does have to do with halloween! and since it's halloween in 2 days i thought i'd share my pumpkin with you haha! :)







It's a hello kitty pumpkin!

Took me bloomin' ages! thought i'd mix it up a bit this year :)



don't worry my next post will be non vegetable related! xxx

PRODUCT RANT!: LUSH Godiva solid shampoo








I'm in love!


I've only had this little wonder 5 days and it's fast becoming my favourite shampoo ever!

To start with it's a solid shampoo, easier, small and lighter to haul back and forth to my boyfriends every weekend and perfect for holidays. Its jasmine scent is amazing and lingers in your hair all day. It contains shea butter so it leaves your hair feeling so soft but skweeky clean! My hair looks in so much better conditon and it's all thanks to this little yellow bar.


I love it when i find things that really work :) I would seriously recommend this if you haven't already tried it or have never tried a solid shampoo before, it might just suprise you!

Going over to the pink side...

I'm a nude lipstick girl, always have been but maybe not always will!

i went on a haul recently and got a lipstick from mac when i returned 6 empty items and i got a pink lipstick! yep pink! and i must say i was pleasently suprised.











The shade is Snob. and i really like it!

I think i'll be trying out more pinks from now on but not reds.

reason why...












I look a bit like an 8 year old trying on her mums makeup haha

Urban Decay primer potion
Barry M dazzle dust in no.44

Lil bit of TOPSHOP

When i'm at college i have to walk past topshop twice a day! and i can't help but want half of everything in it. Every week or so they change up the front window which is my cue for a little nosy!

Today was one of those days. The window was looking all lovely and new so after college i went in for a browse. I should know by now there is no such thing as me going in to topshop for a "browse". I ended up spending almost £50. Expensive browsing!

Heres what i got :)





I've had my eye on this shirt for ages! But when i found it was the last 8 i pounced on it haha.





This is just a plain peachy coloured v-neck top with cute detailing on the back. I love how topshops plain stuff always has something different about it.

I'm going into Manchester this weekend with my boyfriend and there will hopefully be a haul video up soon of what i get :)

and i'll try not to get lured in by topshop again! But i'm not making any promises.
