Primark AW13 Haul

I recently made a AW13 Primark wishlist but when I visit my local store there wasn't any of the items I liked or the ones I found didn't look right. But I did however pick up some lovely items I'm hoping to use this Autumn and Winter.

I picked up a lovely matching red bag and purse set with a gold lock front, there were £5 each. There was surprisingly a lot of room in the purse which I thought most of the purse's I had picked up recently were lacking.

I also recently picked up some sleep in rollers which I loved so this time I picked up the bendy curlers for £1.50, it was a pack of 8 so I picked up 2 just to make sure I don't come up short when I use them.

I was also on the hunt for some dolly shoes and found some lovely black ones with a gold bow on the front for only £6. I was really impressed as the bow was a hard one and not a flimsy one with I'm not a fan of.

I was on the hunt for some new black socks and came across a three pack of Bamboo socks and thought the pattern was cute (little triangles) so I picked some up for £3.

Lastly I went to the home section and found a 3 wick candle in a lovely Blueberry and Blossom scent for only £3.50! I was so happy they had some in stock as I've been dying to get my hands on a 3 wick candle!

Have you been in to have a look at the AW13 collection from Primark, what did you think?

August Glossybox Reviews

This months Glossybox has been impressive, all the items I got I've enjoyed using and have been great quality.

My favorite product to use has been the make up remover pen by Oceane, it's been great to you when I've been getting ready for a night out. Its really easy to use and works really well. It also came with replaceable tips which really impressed me.

I also got the Emite Eye Lash curler which was spoke about quite a lot in the blogger community. I use it before applying mascara to create a soft curl, so I press quite softly. I was also impressed as this eye lash curler didn't pinch the sides of my eyes like previous ones I've tried.

I was extremely pleased to get a Jelly Pong Pong product as it's one of my favorite online stores I love there brand. I got the eyeliner/shadow I enjoyed using this product as an shadow as it smudged well and gave a great coverage, using it as an eyeliner was a little tricky due to the tip of the pencil being quite large.

I also got a purifying exfoliating facial polish by the brand Urban Veda, this wash has a minted scent to it and one of my favorite skin care products witch hazel. I enjoyed using this product it left my skin feeling fresh and cleared my skin nicely. It also had pretty cute packaging which is a nice bonus.

Lastly I got the TRESemme keratin smooth which I still haven't used yet,naughty Jess!

Having A Sensitive Month

Every now and then my face, head and hands have a little moment and go all over sensitive, which means I have to stop using all my favorite products and switch to non scented and soothing products. I don't mind to much as it only happens a few times a year but I usually do a whole month detox on my body to clear it up and start fresh.

My head is usually the worse I get really bad spots all over and it goes all dry and itchy, which is not the most attractive thing in the world. But to clear it up I have to use a really strong smelling shampoo called T-Gel and in between washes I use Simple shampoo. It smells so strong it sometimes makes me gag, and it always leaves my scalp feeling tingly. But thanks to this wonderful product it allows me to use strong smelling shampoo's for a few months.

My face always comes up with this horrible spot rash across my forehead and I can never seem to get rid of it, so I'm always using my collection 2000 concealer and sometimes I go out with my MAC foundation on as it covers it better, this is always a bother as I try to save my MAC products for special occasions and not for when some pesky spots want to appear!

My hands are horrible when I have sensitive months, they go so dry and crack sometimes as well as around my nails being so dry I tend to also have really soft nails so they break or chip easy. I have to use a really strong moisturizers like Sudo Crem and wear cotton gloves in the night to try and soften my hands.

I've been quite lucky recently as I sometimes get eczema which is not a pretty sight, but recently its been under control which I'm happy about.

Do you ever get super sensitive skin, how do you cope and what products do you use?

Vaseline Spray and Go Review

Hands up, who's a lazy moisturiser, me! I was delighted to see a spray on moisturiser in my local boots by the brand Vaseline. It's a new range called Spray and Go which promises to dry in seconds, instantly leaves skin feeling soft and dispenses evenly with one spray. It cost £4.99 which I think is a little pricey but I was able to get it with my boots points so it wasn't to bad.

I brought Essential Moisture but there are two more choices a Aloe Vera one and Cocoa Radiant. You get 190ml in one can, as well as it being non greasy it has pure oat extract and stratys. I found it sprayed well and went on evenly, it was also really easy to rub in and did dry quite quickly (I wouldn't say in seconds like it promises). I also noticed that is lasted the whole day and did make my skin feel soft and moisturise.

I'm really impressed with the product and hopefully it will help me to moisturise each day and not just when I can be bothered, I'm not sure I will try the other two as I'm not a fan of the scent's but I will be re purchasing the Essential Moisture one. Did you buy the new Vaseline Spray and Go, what did you think?

Room Tour 2013

So I was recently looking through (stalking) Zoella's Youtube channel and she did a video where she did a room tour but not just a single photo of her bedroom but a little video of all her items, So I decided to do a photo version of all my favourite item's from my room!



This is my bed! My bedspread I've had for a while but it's a cupcake design with glitter and sequin's on, I also have a Tardy Turtle which I use when I'm ill and feel like hugging something, I have my teddy bear Candy who I brought when I was 16, for when it gets really cold I have my little owl who I can warm up in the microwave and lastly I have my 'J' pillow which my mum knitted for me, there is also a picture my little brother has done for me on the wall!

This Birdcage was a present from my sister for my 21st birthday, I added all the accessories but I love the birds being on the outside rather then on the inside. The butterfly was from Primark which is suppose to be worn in my hair but I though it looked cuter on the birdcage, I also have some love hearts sticking out which were from a recent wedding I went to!

My sister recently went on holiday to Devon and came back with this lovely Golliwog which I thought was adorable(sorry if it offends anyone), I also have my hanging elephants which were brought for me when I was around 14-16 but I love them and hope to keep them until I'm a little old lady.

I brought these hanging heart lights from Primark around a month ago they are really cute or great for watching some horror films with, I also have been to quite a few gig's if I get to meet the band I always try to have photo's so there are a few.

This is were I do all my hair, make up, getting ready etc. Is all nice and tidy now but as soon as I start to get ready its always a tip!

I'm a massive fan of Harry Potter, these are a small collection of items I have. I also have a massive Snape poster as I adore his character in the films/books.

This is my favourite quote ever! And it's so me, I'm not a mad alcoholic but when I go out drinking I tend to get a little bit carried away so always end up being really drunk!

And lastly I have these adorable Very Hunger Caterpillar boxes to store bits and bobs in, there were loads of designs to choose from but I just love these and so does my little brother!

I hope you enjoyed this post, if you have done any room tour posts let me know so I can have a look!

Avobath Bath Bomb Lush Review

This was one of those bath bomb's that didn't really stand out for me but after seeing a review on another blog I thought I would pick it up and give it ago, for only £3.20 it wasn't a bad buy.

The scent was really citrus's and the smell of lemon really stood out, the overall time it took to fizz out was good and after the smell was really strong. I loved the colour it turned my bath water that was my highlight it kind of reminded me of being at a beach. Overall I think the bath bomb did win me around and I would buy it again!

Have you brought any goodies from Lush this month?

One Direction MUA Make Up Range

I pop into my Superdrug store and got all over excited as they had moved the MUA stand to its own little counter next to all the other brand, a proud moment! But while I was there I noticed the One Direction range and thought I would have a little mooch but was surprised to find a really cute nail paint and lipstick so I picked them up along with some other bits and bobs.

1D Nail Polish  Little Things Gold and Gorgeous Niall £3
The colour looks great and comes out well on my nails, I used 2 coats and found that created a nice shade. I wore it for around 4 days before it chipped badly enough for me to remove it. For £3 you get 12ml and a plectrum picture of Niall, the bottle design is nice and you get a decent size brush. Overall I was really impress and would buy more of the range.

1D Lipstick Rock Me Louis £3
I really liked the design on the lipstick for this product is had little kisses and hugs as well as a 1D logo on top of the lipstick. It went on well and felt nice on it also lasted for around an hour before I felt the need to re apply. The lipstick packaging is cute and simply I really liked it.

I was overall surprise with the range and am kind of excited to go back and try some more items, for a boyband they did good!
