Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine



I know its been a while, but do accept my apologies. Its busy times at work again. Up and down to Nottingham, however, Im getting used to the journey so I dont actually mind the mindless times on the train just being able to sit and do nothing. Although, am I the only person who has noticed that theres always one person who expects everyone else to listen to their squeaky phone conversation (with work colleagues, of course) .. and when they hang up on one person they ring another..?? Ok, rant over ;)

Now to something more exciting. I got this fantastic tinted Korres Jasmine lip butter off my flatmate (for Christmas).. Its a tinted lip-balm but works as a sheer creamy lipstick but its obviously lighter. What it reminds me off, is M.A.C Hue (Link), which by the way is my all-time favourite lipstick. Its a pale, matte nude, which works so well with blonde hair ... and pasty skin-tones. Sorry, to anyone who is lucky enough to have a little bit of colour this time of the year. However, instead of the matte finish it leaves a subtle shine on the lips like when for example mixing lipstick and lipgloss. 

I know its bought from Harvey Nichols, but as it was a present, I dont actually know what the price of it was. Sorry.

Anyways, if youre into nudes make sure you get yourself one of these - fantastic daytime nude which also protects from the cold winter-winds. Win-win!!!!

Have a great night everyone.

Nivea Lip Butter Caramel Cream



Everyone who know me, know Im a sucker for lipbalms. I dont know why, and I dont know where it has derived from. But thats what I always seem to come home with (or a new lipstick if Im being adventurous?!) if I am just diverting around Boots for a quick look. 

Normally, I dont like lipbalms where you have to get your fingers sticky, but I couldn't resist buying this one as the smell was just divine. I have been enjoying my Coconut Balmi for a long time now, and thought a more festive lipbalm was in order.

Scented lipbalms normally seem to be very synthetic, however, this one is so sweet and natural, you would think it was actually toffee had the taste not spoiled it.... The texture is nice and light and it leaves a nice transparent gloss on the lips.

I only bought it as I walked past the Lipbalms and felt I wanted to treat myself (how sad is that?) after my mum and sister had left after staying with me for four wonderful days. At a RRP of £1.20 I think this is allowed! And it wont make you put on weight either!? 



I would highly recommend you getting this if you stumble upon it. Its a nice little Christmassy treat when you have spent all of your money on your special ones........

Hope youre all looking forward for Christmas. Im certainly getting excited now - Eeeeek!

Much Love
