17 Berry Crush Lip Stain Review!

RRP £4.99

Unless you've been hiding away somewhere you'll know that lip stains are one of the hottest products on the cosmetics market right now and up until recently I hadn't tried one. I remember when I was little and broke into my sisters make up collection and stole a red lip stain and my lips were stained for days so I was a bit weary!

However I am really impressed. I picked up the shade Pinkini, which is a punchy vibrant pink, with deep purple tones. This kind of colour is what I'm really loving at the minute. 

For those of you wondering how to apply this product you just simply apply the lip balm to protect and moisturise your lips and then apply the felt tip looking end over you lips to add colour. 

I wore this to fashion week as I wanted my lip colour to stay in place all day without too many touch ups and it did.

To begin with I thought that the felt tip end was dried out as the colour was difficult to apply but after a few uses this seems to have cleared up.

I can't wait to try out some more the shades! And the 17 lip stains are so much cheaper than that of other brands, they've definitely won me over!

Wish/Shopping List!

I asked if you guys wanted to see me shopping list/wishlist and few of you said you did! So here it is!

1. 2 Pack of Leggings - New Look £12.99 I am in desperate need of some new leggings and these are thick and good quality ones and I get my discount to which is a massive bonus! I brought a beautiful polka dot (yes another one!) from George at Asda and need some leggings to wear with that!

2. Check Shirt - New Look £14.99 I saw this when it came in and loved it! I don't know if I'll be buying it yet or not but I do love it. A/W is so much nicer than S/S and I can't wait for winter, cosy nights in and jumpers and anything Burgundy coloured!

3. Born Lippy Lip Balm - Body Shop £2.00 I saw this on the website and I've got a 40% off voucher and I'm going to be picking up a few other bits so this is on my to buy list. I want to try a lip balm with a pop of colour and this seems a reasonable price too!

4. Tea Tree Face Mask - Body Shop £9.00 This is main thing on my list. I saw an Essie Button video where she talked about this and she uses it on her blemishes over night and it gets rid of the spot. I have to try this, I hate blemishes and I have a few at the minute I want to see the back off! Again I have a 40% voucher so I'll be putting that to this too!

5. Spike Bracelet - Dolly Peg? This is a sneaky one. I really love this bracelet and we are thinking about stocking it on dolly peg, let me know what you think of it! I love it!

6. Burgundy Supersoft Skinny Jeans - New Look £19.99 I love this colour and I've put these and another jumper on hold at work. So expect to see those sometime soon!

So that's my shopping/wish list! I'll be reviewing the beauty products and expect some outfit posts too!

Balance Me Rose Otto Intensive Lip Salve Review!

RRP £12*

Magazine freebie time again and of course I will be stocking up so expect to see lots of reviews. Glamour Magazine were giving away Balance Me products and the choices were between a moisturiser, cleanser, eye balm and lip salve. I brought the eye cream for Mamma and the lip salve for myself. I didn't buy the other two as I have lots of cleansers and moisturisers to review.

I've needed a lip balm for ages and I regretted not picking on up for L'Occitane but when this came along I snapped it up. The product works well and my lips are silky smooth. The real test will be in winter as my lips can get really dry. I love the herbal smell (much to Mr. Swan's disgust) but it leaves a weird taste in your mouth. Which is bearable but not something I enjoy about the product. However as a magazine freebie you can't go wrong. Would I purchase this for £12, fraid not but as a free product I love it!

Would you like to see a review on Mamma's eye cream? Let me know!
