A/W Revlon Lipstick: Cherries in the Snow

I'm always on the hunt for a new Autumn lipstick and have been holding out for the re-release of Revlons Cherries in the snow. I spotted it last year but it quickly sold out and I was determined that this year this beauty would be mine and at last it finally is!


                                              

In the bullet the colour is coming up as a bog standard red, however it's actually a lovely cherry colour. It's the perfect shade for the Autumn and features hints of pink and purple. I can imagine it being the perfect shade for most skin tones, and would really recommend swatching it first as it comes up differently on everyone. The coverage in one swipe is incredible and so pigmented but can be built up for a deeper shade.

(only ONE coat of the lipstick)
  
It has a creamy texture meaning it glides on effortlessly and leaves a slight glossy finish which I happen to adore at the moment. I think its the type of colour that will suit most skin tones and I have no doubt that this beauty will be a fast seller this year and am already eyeing up another lipstick from them that has been raved about so keep your eyes peeled for that post to!

With love, Hannah x

Autumn Tag

 I've noticed the Autumn Tag floating around and thought Id embrace the moment as Autumn is officially upon us. It was started by the talented Makeup Pixi3 although nobody has tagged me I still wanted to take part and tag some of my own lovelies to do it. 


Favourite thing about Autumn?
I love the rich colours of plum and deep purple that Autumn fashion brings oh & chunky knits. 
Has anyone also noticed how simple and beautiful the falling of leaves can be, I love walking through the park and playing in the fallen leaves with my nephews all wrapped up warm.

House Shopping! #1

I feel the distance between posts have been long and far between. Life has been hectic lately, from preparing for a new job interview and lots of meetings with important people. However, I can officially say I OWN MY OWN HOUSE!

Yes it is official, myself and my partner are now the proud owners of our own little house. As soon as the paperwork was signed, I set out looking for beautiful things to fill my house the way I've always dreamed. And of course I wanted to share the journey with all of you lovelies!  


Today's post includes some items I've bought already and some that are on my list of things to buy. If you had the money, how would you kit out your boudoir?



Faux Fur Style

It seems to me like Faux fur has evolved so much over the years and this year is no different. There are fur trims on jackets as well as an influx of furry gilets. Faux fur items are either a love or hate thing, and personally I'm a huge lover! Theres nothing I love nothing more then pulling out my faux fur gilet and dusting off my faux fur headband.

Loreal Neon Nail Varnish

Who can say no to a brand new nail varnish? A pristine brush and the perfect consistancy. Im pretty sure I might have a nail varnish in almost every colour existing. The first thing that attracted me to these cute little nail varnishes was the packaging. The combination of the gold top and slim bottle makes the nail varnish seem and feel more expensive then the £2.99 price tag. Ive always been scepticle to the true 'neon' claims that many brands put on their nail varnish, but found that I was plesently suprised with the out come. I decided to pick up the two that I knew would fit right in to my collection, the purple and the pink. Typical girl I hear you say!

September Shopping

September is here already, but where has the year gone? 8 Months has flown by and I wish it could stay being summer for just a little longer. However, with that being said I am so excited for cosy jumpers, pretty dresses, tights and ankle boots. As its the first of the month, what better way to start then with a September shopping list / wish list.

Danielle Beauty Essentials

Hello my pretty petals,

So today's little post is in honour of some products I picked up today from TKMaxx. When you think of beauty products, TKMaxx might not be the first place you think of looking in. However, if you are like myself you will know that they have lots of hidden gems at times and if you don't look then you will never know whats hiding in there.

Both the products are from a company called 'Danielle' which is a Canadian based company. I'm lucky enough to of had a product from this brand before in the shape of a small golden make up compact case which I adore so I jumped at the chance of buying these.
