Penneys Spring Summer 2016

Last Thursday on an incredibly wet and dull day I made my way to Penneys HQ for a preview of their spring summer collection.  As wet and dreary as it was outside, we were instantly cheered up the minute we got in the door.  There was a lovely breakfast buffet to greet us upon arrival. […]

Gwen Stefani for Urban Decay

It is rare that I write a review so quickly after getting a product but I had to say something about the new Gwen Stefani for Urban Decay palette.  Continuing with my rare streak, it is highly unusual that I actually have excitement for a celebrity collaboration; it usually isn’t my thing.  I knew, however, from […]

All Out Pout From Seventeen

It is no secret that I love lipstick.  When I’m feeling lazy with my make-up I can pop on a nice lipstick and transform myself from a corpse to an alive looking human.   I was absolutely thrilled two weeks ago to come home to a parcel from Seventeen containing their new lip palette and […]

Lush

Lush is a mecca for cosmetics lovers.  Their window displays, friendly atmosphere and beautiful scents are incredibly alluring and can’t be ignored.  I love the brand because the cosmetics are all fresh and hand-made but most importantly they are cruelty free.  Lush is fighting the good fight against animal testing. On Wednesday evening I met […]
