Since a girl in my class had Pinch Me blush and very kindly let me try it i've fell it love i've used it everyday since i got it i've also used my Dolly Mix blusher more too!! yay for MAC blushes!!

I also brought MAC Silver Dusk the same day as I brought Pinch Me I was originally after the Soft and Gentle Mineralize Skinfinish but they had none in stock of that so I asked the make up artist what else they had (as i really needed a new highlighter due to fear of my MAC wonderwoman one wearing out since thats limted edition ) So she showed me this swatched it and WOW i fell it love and again have used it ever since i got it!! I love this product I will be repurchasing always!!!

New Vanity

I cleaned up my vanity and started to create a massive mood board :)

what do you think? 

New Lipsticks (MAC VIVA GLAM)

MAC Established in 1994 (the year I was born!!) to support men, women and also children that are unfortunately affected by HIV and AIDS across the globe. All the money that you spend on these lipsticks go straight to the MAC AIDS fund so with buying these lipsticks you really are helping others - which is even more reason to buy lipsticks from the Viva Glam range.

I've got both of the Lady Gaga lipsticks that were produced by Lady Gaga with MAC the first lipstick she produced was the pink one in spring 2011 with Cyndi Lauper (who produced a red lipstick) due to the success of the the first one Lady Gaga then released a second lipstick (Lady Gaga Viva Glam 2) this is more of a nude shade.

This year MAC's holiday collection released a Lady Gaga Viva Glam gift set complete with both lipsticks and a red make up bag (I'm not much for the make up bag myself but I brought it for the products not the bag.)

Both these shades are beautiful in colour and they last on your lips really well!!

Here are swatches of them both....

My Jewelry Storage

So, I have recently tided up all my jewelry and thought i'd share it with you guys!!

 I brought some 99p small canvas' from a Art & Crafts store near me - and basically i've just poked all my dangley earrings through the canvas and have put all the backs into a little pot - it's really great displaying them this way 1. it's like art work on the walls 2. you can see them 3. they don't get all messed up!! I also added some flower hair things to the tops of the canvas' for decoration :)

                                                                           

My mum has got a new set of stylish mugs with 

a holder so she no longer  needed this mug tree

and so i've used it to hang all my bracelets off .

I've had this paper organizer for years now just sitting upon my desk never used - I believe I got it from WHSmiths but it was years ago..anyway due to that it's made of a mesh type material you can easily stick your studs and backs through it - I used to keep mine all in a little pot but they got all mixed up and i'd loose some :( but this way is much better I can see them all an I hopefully wont loose them!!

This way of storage I find is really useful plus it's very inexpensive too!!

My Youtube

for those who don't know I actually have a youtube account with a few make up videos on there - but I am looking to expand them and have more videos :)
