New Buys!

  Sorry that I haven't updated much the last few days, but I've been so busy trying to choose which High School I want to go to. It's so difficult for me, since I don't want to risk regretting my decision later. Although I know that in the end I'll just have to be brave and take a chance.

  Anyway, a few days ago I went to the store and picked up a few new things!

Adorable purple earrings on the bottom!

  I adore these Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo cream shadows! They are very pigmented, stays put all day and is very easy to work with. The top left ("Permanent Taupe") I had since earlier but I thought it could be included since it's from the same series, the other ones are new (for me ;) ) and they're called "Bad to the Bronze" and "Pink Gold". 

Swatches: Pink Gold, Permanent Taupe and Bad to the Bronze.

The Body Shop's "Almond Hand and Nail Cream". 

This is really great and for sale which is extra good since I would've wanted to buy it anyways.

  It's a white cream but it gets soaked into the skin really fast and doesn't stay sticky for long. It's a great moisutrizer and the AMAZING smell last for hours! =) This will probably be frequently used this winter since cold weather makes my hands super dry. 

  Kisses and love with whipped cream on top! <3

Review: Maybelline "Hot Plum"

I am a lip-makeup fanatic and since I hadn't gotten a new lipstick in a while I decided to get this gorgeous shade!

  It's Maybelline's Hot Plum.

  Now, I picked this shade because I have been longing for a slightly purple toned lipcolour for quite some time.

  Honestly I was a bit dissapointed by the "pinkness" of this shade, since it didn't really look plummy. 

  It's a darker hot pink and you might sense a little bit of plum in the shimmers.

  But, even if it isn't my perfect plum, it's still gorgeous!

  It's VERY pigmented too and the colour fits me quite nicely. 

  It lasts for a long time and even when the actual lipstick is gone, you can still see the colour on your lips if that makes any sense. 

  This is not one of those hydrating lipsticks and I actually find it a bit drying. It goes on a bit rough and can look slightly cakey.

 But not to worry! Just put on some lipbalm or lipgloss and you'll be fine!

  Like I said, this is a stunning colour and I think I would have loved it more if I hadn't expected the shade to be more purple.  

  I'd give this a 3.5 / 5 ! I would give this a higher score but though the colour is beautiful, it wasn't what I was looking for. 

    Kisses and love with whipped cream on top! <3
