Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit

Ok so another magazine ad has roped me in, this time for...


The new Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit facial wash from Neutrogena.

Product Info: An uplifting daily facial cleanser for clear, fresh and healthy looking skin everyday.
- With powerful Microclear technology, the  formula cleanses deeply to help eliminate spots and blackheads.
- The refreshing gel gently purifies the skin without overdrying, while a wave of pink grapefruit uplifts the senses with a burst of invigorating freshness.

My thoughts
1) It smells gorgeous!
2) It creates the perfect amount of lather.
3) Doesn't make my face red and aggravated like a lot of face washes.
4) My face really does feel amazing after use.
10/10

It cost under 7euro, and I got mine in Boots!

RANT!

Oh what a fickle world we live in....
New pictures of Jessica Simpson have hit the web...
Remember the pictures of her last year that resulted in her being blasted as 'fat'!
Now I'm not even a fan of hers but it gets my panties in a twist when 'Hollywood' has these double standards, if your 'hot' right now and are curvy you're praised for your body, being a role model for women and for not bowing to the pressures of the Hollywood lifestyle (a la Christina Hendricks) and if your kinda old news (Ms. Simpson) your called 'fat', told they look 'pregnant', and who's weight is scrutinized on every magazine and blog etc,
I for one think she looks really good in these new pics, I think all shapes and sizes and skin colours are beautiful.
Here's one of 'those' pics now!
And she is no where neeeeaaar being 'fat'!
That's called curves dahling...

Makeup of the Day: Charlize Theron


Beautiful!!
I love the makeup here, Charlize Theron in Elle Russia.
I'd never dream of not putting liner on my waterline with such a bold cat eye, but it looks really great here so I may just try it!

Label Love: Alexa Bag


This is the thing that dreams are made of.......

Blue & White Handbag


I really love this bag, I'd seen it on Ebay and wasn't that pricey, less than $20.
They had this bag in pink or black (instead of blue), I don't have many bags with blue on them so that's why I chose this one.
It was a gift from my boyfriend, he knows handbags are the way to my heart!

28 Neutral Palette


I love neutrals so I had to get this. I got this from Ebay.
 I'd seen a few reviews on it on Youtube, the people there seemed to like it.
I haven't used it too much so far so I don't know what I really think of it yet .
I mean it was only a few euro so I didn't really care if it wasn't amazing.
But...I do like it, yes,...like I said I haven't used it enough to cast my opinion properly.
I'll update my view in about a month.

Lipstick of the Week


I have 2 lipsticks of the week this week!
I've been using these two quite a lot, sometimes mixing the colours together as well.
On the left is a peachy pink called 'Rose Petal' and the right is a blue toned pink called 'Pink Mallow', Pink Mallow reminds me of the MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick a lot. They look pretty similar on. Both of these colours are by Natural Collection. (I'm not a makeup snob, if lesser known brands have a good product I'm not just going to turn my nose up at it because it's not precious MAC etc!)

Owl Ring


How cute is this!?
It's my favorite ring at the moment!


,

Brown Sachel Bag


I bought this bag about a week ago, I've noticed a lot of Miu Miu/Mulberry looking bags around, this one is very slightly like a mix of them, the flash off my camera is making the red tone of the brown come out, but it's not this colour, the camera isn't doing it justice at all!
 I like that the bag looks a bit weathered already! 

Taupe handbag


I'm really into taupe at the moment!
This handbag has lots of room inside and many pockets, it also has a long strap that can be taken off the bag.
My boyfriend has gotten the black version for me, but I'm not allowed have it yet! :(

Outfit of the Day: Kim Kardashian


It seems Kim Kardashian is a re-occurring sight on this blog!?
Her style is always spot on though!

Makeup of the Day: Kim Kardashian


How amazing is this makeup?!!
The dark cat eye liner is the perfect eye makeup to wear with such a dramatic hot pink lip.

Groovy Nails




This is Groovy(No.40) by Essence, from the multi dimension range of nail polishes.
In the picture I have on 2 coats along with a clear top coat.
The colour is so vibrant.
^-^

Lipstick of the week



Freckletone by MAC.
This is a Lustre.
It's a gorgeous orange toned nude.
If you'd like to see a swatch of this or what it looks like on just leave a comment below!

Studded Off White Handbag



I fell in love with this handbag the second I seen it!
The off white colour with the dirty gold embellishments looks great.
And I'm also obsessed with chain link handles.

Makeup of the Day: Olivia Wilde




Brown eyeshadow is amazing on blue eyes, makes them pop like crazy!
Brown is actually a beautiful colour on all eyes.
Olivia appears to be wearing a red toned brown, think Mulch from MAC.

Outfit of the Day: Hilary Duff



I love Hilary Duff's style, very simple, everything is right with this look, clothes, makeup, handbag and even the hair. Love...

Ardell Lashes



I love these Ardell Lashes, they're human hair.
These are the Demi Wispies, very nice on a night out, they make my eyes stand out really well.

Maybelline Pure Liquid Mineral Foundation Review



I think this foundation is one of the best drugstore foundations around, it'd such a lovely texture it barely feels like I have any makeup on, I bought it in a much too dark colour for my natural skincolour (this one is Caramel) because I like to mix colours because somedays I may have fake tan on or be pale. It's medium coverage and is buildable.

88 Palette



This is the well known palette that does be on Ebay or Coastal Scents, It's so much cheaper of ebay though.
I didn't think it'd be that much use as it was so cheap but I was amazed!
So many beautifully vivid colours (shimmer and mattes), and they're even brighter when applied over a primer.


Outfit of the Day: Jessica Biel



Jessica Biel is effortlessly chic. The dark camisole is a beautiful contrast to the nude skirt. Simply accessorized with a multi strand necklace...with shoes to die for!
