Baby i'm a real wild child...

Yes everyone! its another LUSH post, but ohhhhh boy is this gonna be a good one!! The product(s) in question? The Wild Child Gift Set!



I bought this when the £20 promotion started and i'll be honest, i only really got it for the funky wrapping paper, rockstar, and the sugar scrub! So i was really surprised at how much i enjoyed the rest of the products... The set cost me £15.95 lets get down to the review :)

Sugar babe sugar scrub


This smells of sweets and coconut and is far more aesthetically pleasing than the 'original' green sugar scrub! I love the original one so couldn't wait to try this one :) when you break it open the first thing you notice is the bright pink coconut oil in the middle, it looks and smells absolutely amazing!! I broke a chunk of this off and started scrubbing with it, the thing i like most about the lush sugar scrubs is that they dissolve slowly enough for you to really work it into your skin and get super smooth. I think the sugar babe scrub gets you smoother and softer than the originial one as it contains the oil in the middle. This retails at £2.60 the same as the green scrub and in my opinion this one is far better! 10/10, this was amazing!!

Yummy Yummy Yummy shower cream


After spending the christmas period using snow fairy it was going to take a seriously impressive shower gel to stop me craving it!! Whilst snow fairy smells of bubblegum and sweets to an almost sickening degree, yummy yummy yummy has a much softer strawberry and honey scent, i used this with exfoliating gloves and it lathered up really well, the smell lingers on your skin and it smells absolutely delicious! I'd actually say this shower cream is better than snow fairy because the scent is more subtle, snow fairy can be incredibly overpowering!! I'd give this a 9/10, why a 9? it doesnt have any glitter in it ;) This is £3.10 for 100g.

Whip stick lip balm


This retails at £4.75 and smells like chocolate cake!! After wearing it constantly for over a week it barely even looks like its been used once and its really really moisturising, my lips are really soft and it tastes super sweet and chocolatey! I'd give this a 9/10 as its quite solid and you have to rub your finger on it quite a lot to get enough to cover your lips :)

Rockstar soap


This has featured on my blog a million times already and remains a solid favourite of mine!! Read my review here. its £2.81 for 100g by the way. i LOVE this product :) 10/10!

Up you gets emotibomb


I get really grumpy about not having a bath in my house at the moment and i get even grumpier when i go into lush and cant buy bath products!! That said i was really excited about trying an emotibomb, its essentially a bath bomb but for the shower! i chucked this in the bottom of my shower and started washing... the first thing i noticed was an amazing citrus scent! perfect for first thing in the morning when its not even light outside and all you wanna do is crawl back into bed! This really helped to wake me up and certainly made my shower more fun and enjoyable. My only minor complaint is that it really doesnt last very long! a minute or two and it had all fizzed away! the scent lingered quite well though and all of my housemates commented on it! this is a bargain at just £1.95 and i'd give it 8/10 :)

Overall this is a fantastic gift set for any girl (especially one that likes to party) i really enjoyed using all of the products and it introduced me to some i wouldnt have normally tried (the lip balm for one). I've been really impressed and im gutted ive used most of the products up!!

Barry M get the look: Pink

Barry M dazzle dusts are an absolute staple for me and i have around 15 now! When i spotted this on the ASOS website for a fiver i couldnt resist buying it! Berry colours are going to be a huge deal this spring and while i own lots of purple, i don't own many pinks or deep pinky plum colours so this was perfect :)

It cost me £6.95 with postage, a dazzle dust is about £4.50 and although the barry m website doesnt have the brush on it, the other eyeshadow brush is £1.95.. that brings the value of this set to roughly £15.50 so i really did get a bargain! im not too sure whether you can still buy it from asos but its available here for £9.95 from the Barry M website!!

Onto some photos:

The kit:



Swatches:


with flash


without flash

A little look i created for work:

^ i look REALLY ill here, dont know why :/








I really enjoyed using this and the colours are absolutely gorgeous, considering the brush is probably not of the best quality etc its fantastic, it picks up colour, places it evenly and precisely and the tapered end means its actually really good for crease work and blending!!

If i was 'big' on green eyeshadow i would definately buy the green kit as well, these are great value for money and also would make fantastic gifts :)

A Divine Sunday...

Sundays for me are Duvet days, i work long and demanding hours on a saturday night and lounging around in bed on a sunday is clearly completely necessary! So what better time for me this afternoon to write a review of the chocolate i received from Lee over at Chocolate Reviews. I stumbled across Lee on twitter a while back and his blog is utterly mouth watering!!

He sent me a bar of Divine white chocolate with strawberries. He bought it here.



So, here i am, laying in bed in my dressing gown, very slowly working my way through this chocolate bar. No good for my diet, but very very good for my tastebuds! The pacakging is absolutely gorgeous as you can see in the picture and as you open it you see that the white chocolate contains lots of tiny pink bits :). Unfortunately i can't take any photos as my camera has run out of battery :(

As you break a piece off and bite into it the sweet, smooth taste of white chocolate washes across your tongue and you notice the pieces of strawberry are slightly crunchy. What i will say is that although there is a faint taste of stawberry, its certainly not strong and i feel this chocolate bar could benefit from a stronger fruity kick.. Surprisingly it actually reminds me of the taste of Wonka Bars that you could buy for a short period when i was about 12/13!! I've no idea why, i'm sure they did a strawberry one? anyway...

Overall its an incredibly satisfying chocolate but its not quite so satisfying that you set the bar down after a few pieces, im ashamed to say ive plowed through half of the bar today!! I think its because its got a very light, almost refreshing taste, probably because of the stawberry hint in it. I'm a huge chocolate fanatic and its my major downfall. This is so yummy i would definately buy it myself and i will certainly finish off the rest of the bar! :D

FTC Disclaimer - I was sent this chocolate by Lee to review but the only benefit i got was being able to eat lots of chocolate!! haha :)

Teary eyed goodbyes...

Hi everyone, appologies for my absence over the past few days, i went home as it was my mums birthday and i needed to take my car back (boo hoo!! i miss it already)... I found it very emotional saying goodbye to everyone and even as i type this my eyes are still all full of tears!! I've no idea why its such a struggle for me as i know ill see everyone soon but anyway...

If you check my upcoming posts section you'll see there are some new blogs on the way for you! Mainly a 'Divine - white chocolate with strawberries' review which im going to take my time over tomorrow ;) im certainly not going to be scoffing it due to the WLC but i will be taking my time and slowly eating it piece by glorious piece!! YUM!

Anyway, to tide you over until then heres some photos of the things i got up to this week!

My dog decided to sleep in my bed EVERY night i kid you not, it was so annoying cause she takes up so much room!!!!!!


Mums birthday:


she'll kill me for posting this as she hadnt had her hair or make up done yet!! thats me my mum, my nan and my 'little' brother who is actually taller than me now :|

also if you peep in the backgrounf theres a photo of me at my prom!! LONG HAIRRR! aha

Then i shaved my little brothers head!! the carpet etc is all moved in the background so we didnt get hair on it!!

Here he is as a walking ball of hair...


^ HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA the door of my mums tumble dryer fell of as i took this, so funny!!

Here he is after i'd busted ma skillz out on him ;)



110 times better dont you think!!!! he despised me for chopping that beast of a fringe off but eventually he liked it :)

so yeah!! i hope all of you are ok, can't wait to get stuck into lots of posts again, ive missed blogland!!

I am overwhelmed...

Hi everyone!! this is going to be an incredibly rushed post but i just have to write about it before i leave to go home today, im not entirely sure whether ill be blogging or not while im away!!

Basically i won Sophie's contest a few days ago, and this morning, along with a knock at the door... came two parcels for me...

'hmmm.. two? i haven't ordered anything this week?'

I opened them and one contained my contest prizes (plus a few extras!!!) and the other contained a huge pile of weight wathers books!

'um wow, Stew look at this! this is so lovely, im so shocked, ooh i might cry'

to make this a little bit quicker because i really need to leave, heres the email i just sent Sophie, hope she wont mind me posting it on here!!

Hiya!

Just dropping you a (very very very quick) email as i'm about to leave for a two hour drive!
I just wanted to say a huge, huge thank you for my prizes and the weight watchers books you sent me,
to be perfectly honest i was so shocked at how kind the gesture was i almost cried!! Its amazing and
reassuring to know that even in the sea of bitchy, negative, sly and nasty comments, emails and tweets;
there are still some genuinly kind (and very generous!!) individuals. Up until now i'd been surviving with
Google telling me all of my points values because my student budget just wont stretch to the fee to
join a meeting, or online! Either that or i was tweeting to ask other people! I just wanted to let you know
how much i appreciate those two parcels that came through my door this morning and also how much
easier you have made Weight Watchers and my weight loss journey...

Have a lovely day and thank you again,
Cat xxxxxx


that basically says it all, i really am so shocked this morning! Thank you so much Sophie!

In & Out!

In ♥ :

*my weight los challenge - every day i have lovely comments, messages and emails from all of the girls taking part! thank you so much!
*using very little heat on my hair for almost a week! im just putting it up in a ponytail or pinning it all up in a messy bun type thing... it already feels healthier!
*ribena - do i need to say anymore?
*my 250 followers giveaway! go on, click the follow button... you know you want to!! when i get to 250 followers im going to give away LOTS of lush goodies amongst other stuff :)
*simple, glowing, healthy make-up.. i've ditched most of it this week and ive just been wearing NARS sheer glow, mac msf natural, a bit of cream blush and some mascara... i love it!
*going out on friday night and seeing everyone i hadnt seen for a long long longgggg time!! everyone was saying things like 'OHMYGOD CAT!! YOU'VE SHRUNK!!' (as in, id lost lots of weight) it was so nice to get compliments and to know that all of my efforts are paying off :)
*redesigning my blog with the help of Caroline and some others, im really happy with how it looks!!

Out :(

*big shampoo - i got a sample of this and just don't understand what all the fuss is about, it seems to me that as soon as one or two people like a product, everyone rushes out to buy it!! i'll admit i was sucked into all the rave reviews but im really not too impressed, it made my hair 'squeaky' and knotty and didnt make it shiney or 'big' at all. further proof that jumping on bandwagons is crap sometimes!!
*having to take my car back home soon, i bought it to uni over the christmas holidays but have to take it back next week, im going to miss it so much!
*my weigh in tomorrow! im so nervous!!
*going back to uni in a week.. ive really enjoyed the time off and no essays etc!

hope everyone is ok!! xo

Operation 'What do boys actually know?'

Hi girls! Just a little bit of background on this post, i've been seeing a lot of looks both on the internet and 'in real life' (when im shopping/out for dinner etc) that have led to me thinking 'oh my god! stew could put make up on someone better than that!!' and that got me thinking, if i unleashed him on my make-up and brushes... what would happen? what did he know about make up application? could he do a good job?

Well heres the answer, first of all he pondered all of the make up and brushes...





Then he applied mac studio fix fluid (good choice!) all over my face with a stippling brush and blended it a little bit.... after many a confused look he selected mac skinfinish natural and my kabuki brush... that was bruahed all over my face, after that he applied bronzer to my cheeks, then said 'oh no!! its meant to be pink stuff!!' so he found a blusher and applied that over the top! next, my eyes... he applied a white shade all over, then a green... then black eyeliner on the top and bottom (he even winged it out!!!!!) and some mascara (i pooped my pants thinking he was gonna poke me in the eye by accident). Finally, some barry m touch of magic lip paint 'HAHAHA ITS GREEN' and some 'shiney stuff' (clear lipgloss) over the top...

Heres some photos of the finished look..






Considering i gave him absolutely NO help, i think he did really well! i dont have eyeliner on my lips or eyeshadow on my cheeks so im pleasantly surprised!

The base is absolutely flawless and the bronzer and blusher are applied really well... The eyes need a little bit of work but everything is placed correctly and applied in the right way!

I'm really proud of Stew and i think he did an awesome job :)

OOTD: a few days ago

Excuse the blurry picture, i was wearing this a few days ago (and also in my FAQ video i think!) and some people asked where my necklace etc was from!



Cardigan: primark - ages ago!
Top/dress/tunic: Topshop, look out for my rave post on these little beauts!
Tights: Topshop
Slipper booties: River Island
Necklace: Primark! I kid you not...

Just a quick post because i really liked this outfit (obviously i wouldn't wear it with the slippers to go out though!)

Weight Loss Challenge: Week 1!



finally here! so so so so so sorry its late! xo

Review: No 7 Stay Perfect Nail Colour in 25. Twinkle

After buying some, errr, shower caps and face wipes in boots today, i was given a £5 off No 7 or Ruby&Millie voucher, I immediately spent it because otherwise i just forget about them then they expire!! After deciding i didn't really need (or want!) ant make-up, i decided to buy a nail polishhh... Upon spotting twinkle Stew's exact words were 'thats basically you in nail polish form!'. Looking at its baby pink, sparkly swatch and the gorgeous colour in the bottle, i couldn't resist, and even better! it was only going to cost me £1.25!! So i grabbed it, bought it home, and put it on.... errrrr... hang on a minute..

No 7 say: No7 Stay Perfect Nail Colours, for beautiful glossy colour that stays perfect for upto five days.

I say: this is a HUGE let down.

A: the colour is nothing like the polish in the bottle, or the little swatch shown on the display in store
B: the 'twinkle' (ie: glitter) in the polish barely shows up
C: it gives such a faint wash of pink that even Stew's snazzy million mega pixel camera and various different types of lens and macro settings couldn't even pick it up. Lovely.

Here's some photos:



Excuse how gross my hand looks... it was literally impossible to get a photo of the polish!! This is with two coats and as you can see its nowhere near the gorge glittery pink in the bottle!! bah :(


Now i'm not really one for overly negative reviews as i'm a firm believer in that ALL products have some sort of good points and i'm pretty sure if i tried this over a beige base it would probably be a lot cuter, its also really good if your looking for a subtle wash of colour and sparkle, or maybe if you work in an office and even though its not obvious, it cheers up your day to know you've got pink sparkles on your nails!!

Overall i'm quite glad this only cost me £1.25 cause if id have paid £6.25 id be super pee'd off right now!!

My WeightLoss Challenge

Hi Girls!
I've decided to start a weight loss challenge (WLC) on here and youtube, the idea is that over a period of 12 weeks starting this coming monday, myself and other bloggers/youtubers/tweeters will post a blog or video documenting their weight loss for that week, there arent many rules but the ones that do apply are listed below:

1. you must let me know that you wish to take part (by a comment on here, a private message on twitter, or an email) and be a follower of my blog OR youtube - this is NOT so i can have more followers, but so it is easier for me to keep in touch with everyone and read blogs/watch videos!!!!

2. videos and/or blogs must be posted at some point every week!! my video will go up on a monday and you should link me to your blog either on a comment here or on twitter and link me to your video by making it a response to my video or by messaging me on youtube!

3. this monday 11th january you must post a blog or video stating that you wish to take part, in the video or blog you must list 3 things you like about yourself currently... introduce yourself and have a bit of a chat! every week from then on the video will consist of how much weight you have lost that week - please be honest!! i do not expect people to disclose their weight if they do not wish too, but please be 100% honest about your loss. if you maintain or gain, explain why you think that is in the video, it is NOT a bad thing, its just something to work on!!

I think thats everything i need to cover, this isnt a competition or anything like that. You can lose the weight in any (SENSIBLE) way you wish, be it weight watchers, slimming world, slim fast, special k, your own personal healthy eating plan, lots of regular exercise etc... Personally i will be doing weight watchers as i have found that it works for me!!

Why have i decided to start this challenge? I was doing really well on weight watchers up until just before christmas when i became a lot more confident in myself and happier with my image, i started wearing nicer clothes that i felt really confident in and quite frankly, i lost my way. I still want to lose weight but i have lost my motivation and incentive. I feel that knowing i have to make a video every week on my weight loss will really push me to achieve my goals and to stick to weight watchers...

So thats it girls!! leave a comment here if you wish to take part and havent seen whats going on on my twitter!! I'd love to have a huge group of girls doing this and really motivating each other!!

LET THE 12 WEEKS COMMENCE!!

oh and on a final note, please spread the word and get as many people as you can involved, the idea of this is that it creates a big group of girls, all with the same objective, who can all support each other! the more the merrier!!

ps - fab giveaway here!

Top 10 products of 2009

In no particular order:

1. Mac Studio Fix Fluid

I'm shade NC15 in this foundation and for me, it is absolutely incredible. Not only does it provide full coverage, it doesn't transfer to clothing etc, it blends effortlessly and it makes my skin look flawless. I think the main selling point for this foundation for me was that ONE bottle lasted me from april - december 2009!!!! That is a LONG time, proof of how little you need to use for a fantastic face!!

2. Baby Lotion

Any brand really but my favourite last year was Tesco/Asda own brand. I only ever buy Johnson's when its on offer because the own brand versions do EXACTLY the same thing for a fraction of the price! All of these lotions are really moisturising and are relatively scent free... i can't see the point in spending lots of money on an every day moisturisor so i save my more expensive ones for special occassions or when my skin really does need a treat, and use baby lotion every day :) i love it!

3. LUSH Rockstar Soap

I wrote about this here so i wont repeat myself but i used this a LOT last year and will do the same this year!!

4. Rimmel Glam Eyes Mascara

This is very affordable and absolutely fantastic, personally i dont get on with sexy curves mascara so this is THE rimmel mascara in my eyes. It gives black, curled, volumised, sexy lashes and i love it! I use this almost every day and will continue to repurchase it, i love it!

5. Calvin Klein 'Contradiction'

I'm going to be honest, im not sure if this is still available but it was my signature scent last year, my bottle is almost empty and i will be buying another (if i can!!) as soon as it runs out, i cant really describe perfumes very well but this is fantastic, very sexy and grown up and Stew instantly recognises if i wear it, or if anyone else is wearing it! haha :)

6. 2True Eyebrow Pencil
I can't find a photo of this product but for under £2 this is amazing, when i bought it i had never pencilled my eyebrows in before so didnt want to spend much money at all. By accident i appear to have found the perfect colour! haha! This pencil is amazing, it stays on all day and is really pigmented, id recommend this to anyone, whether you are just starting to pencil your brows in or just want to try a new brand, this is such a bargain!

7. Dove Heat Defence Therapy Shampoo, Conditioner and Heat Protectant Spray (i know, kinda cheating but the whole range is amazing)

I blogged about this here and i'm still singing its praises!! I use the whole range every time i wash my hair and have been doing so for about 6 months. My hair feels noticeably stronger, smoother, and healthier. It's also growing which is almost unheard of for my hair!

8. Simple Eye Make-up Remover

I have tried almost every eye make up remover available at boots and superdrug and every single one stung my eyes, left them red, sore, dry and burning. Apart from this one, i've used simple products since i was about 11 (i got the 3 step cleansing system as my 'first' skincare regime) and i still havent stopped. The products are affordable, gentle and effective, i'd recommend anything from the range but the eye make up remover was one of my holy grail products throughout 2009 :)

9. Tigi Bed Head Dumb Blonde Reconstructor

This is a miracle product, i got given it free by my hairdresser as i had had three colours at the salon within a certain period of time. She recommended it to me because i was so desperate for my hair to grow, she said to only use it one or twice a fortnight and at the absolute most once a week because its so full of proteins and stuff that if you use it too often it goes backwards and your hair dries out. I can genuinly say that since i have been using this product my hair HAS grown Is in MUCHHHHH better condition, oh, and it smells of pineapples. Fantastic. This stuff isnt cheap (£10-£15 per tube) but each tube lasts a long time and it really does work. Love it.

10. Nars Cream Blush in Penny Lane

I'm going to be doing a review on this soon, and i did only get it at the beginning of december but it stil counts as 2009!! i use it EVERY single day and it gives the perfect dewy flush to the cheeks. loveeeeeeeeeeee!!

FOTN: something a bit different

So after perving at Caroline's Blog (dont worry! she knows im a perv), i kinda stole some inspiration and came up with this...






its really similar to carolines look but i used shadowy lady instead of a pale purple and black eyeliner on the lower lashline instead of electric blue!! after all, it'd be super cheeky to copy her entirely.. haha!!

sorry about the webcam shots, i have no idea where either of stews cameras are!!

Happy 101 Award :)

Before you read this please excuse the messy images, it would appear that my blog has decided it no longer wants to resize them for me.. haha

I was given this award by the laaaavely Carla over at Girl with the Golden Touch! The rules are to post 10 things which make you happy, try to do at least one of them today, link back to the person who awarded you and pass along to ten people!!

10 things that never fail to make me happy:

1. Breakfast in bed


Obviously its even better when someone brings it to you but i absolutely adore snuggling up in bed with my breakfast and just taking it easy for 10 mins or so before i get up, i really dont know what it is about it that makes me love it so much but this is something that never ever fails to put a huge smile on my face!!

2. Stew


I know its a bit obvious but he always makes me happy, no matter what. Whether its doing something really stupid or his massive passion for a few things (cars, to name one) he always makes me smile. I can think of nothing better than curling up in bed with him to watch a film or going with him to a track day or race and seeing him totally buzzed up with excitement. In the photo above he's driving his car down a quarter mile, i posted it purely because of the massive look of concentration on his face!! So funny!

3. My family


Another obvious one but spending time with them over the christmas period really showed me how much i miss everyone and how homesick i am, not seeing my dad over christmas was dreadful!! I couldn't get a photo of my whole family together (my parents divorced when i was about 2!) so family guy will have to do for now ;)

4. Tea


My favourite type is a starbucks Chai Tea latte but i'll settle for basically any type!! I LOVE tea, its such a british thing but a good brew really does make things better, sod getting home and drinking a double whisky/bottle of wine, its all about having a brew!

5. Music


That photo is of my current favourite band, Mouthwash they can be enjoyed by everyone (even my mum loves them) so go and check them out if you want feel good music that'll keep you happy and energised the whole day through!!

6. Chocolate


Nuff said!

7. A fabulous new pair of shoes, just YUM. i don't know why, but it makes me happy!

8. Puppy's


I chose this photo because it looks just like my dads dog buddy, ideally i'd love to have something like a St Bernard but that might be slightly impractical so i'd love to have a Husky dog!!

9. Dressing gowns


I have the fluffiest pink dressing gown ever and im in love with it, theres something so lovely about putting it on, morning or not, and it always makes me happy!

10. A new coat of nail polish! Especially Barry M :)


Theres something about painting on a slick of nail polish that really makes me happy, especially when its a fun bright colour :)

a few other things that make me happy are haribo sweets, the internet, make-up and hugs, sorry i just couldnt only write 10!

The 10 people i am passing this award onto are:

1.Sinead at Dainty Dollymix
2.Tina at All the Vanity
3.Daisy at Cupcakes and Cherries
4.Kelly at Kelanjo19
5.Victoria at Lily loves Lola
6.Caroline at Make up by Caroline
7. Fayer at Ohmyskele
8.Sian at Style is the Sixth sense
9. Leanna at Vanilla Teapot
and
10. Wonderlander.
