TopShop LipSticks

Evening everyone.

Last weekend I went to Gilgamesh and decided that for once I wanted to wear lipstick. Now, I am just not a 'lippie kinda gal'. I LOVE my glosses, but this is only because lipstick scares me... yep you heard me.

It can bleed and smudge so easy etc however I bit the bullet and had a little look in Topshop. I literally fell in love with their lipstick range. The most beautiful colours, however I feel there could be allot more.




I badly wanted a gorgeous Red colour as I decided that I was doing minimal eyes so wanted a WHAM with the lips.

The first colour I picked up was called Hazard and it is a very deep looking red rather than a bright shade. I already had a pencil to match and thought... what the hell just go for it...



This colour was gorgeous and it did last me most of the night, I did apply a gloss over the top. 


HOWEVER... this triggered 2 more impulse buys of lippies that I didnt needs. WHOOOOPPS!

These next to colours are gorgeous!!! Screams to me hello spring/summer =) 


All about me... what a perfect name! This is my favourite shade that I bought. Such a gorgeous colour. It is a Matte finish so I will definitely be pairing this up with a gloss, however it is Matte moisturising so may give it a chance on it own first. 

And last up is....
Ohh la la. It's a gorgeous coral colour, very moisturing as you can see in the picture which I do like but a little worried about staying power? It does say that it is a velvet finish so I will need to put this to the test!

What's your favourite colour from the Topshop range?

Neom Luxury Organics 'Happiness' Candle

Now let me start by saying..... I HAVE NEVER SMELT ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEAUTY!

I am all into my candles, especially Yankie Candles but this is totally different. This seems to really appeal to me when I want to wind down and relax.


The packaging is soo lovely, clean and crisp looking. The candle itself is held in a clear glass however you can buy a candle cap from Neom for the candles to sit on so it doesn't heat up your bedside table for £10.00.





Product - NEOM Luxury Organics candles are made using only vegetable wax and pure essential oils rather than synthetic fragrances so they burn without releasing harmful pollutants, toxins or soot. They work as powerful holistic treatments as you breathe in the scented air. 

Loving the fact that this appeals to me as an holistic treatment rather than just another scented candle

Fragrance - A sparkling blend of White Neroli, Mimosa and Lemon is combined with natural fresh grass notes to create the awakening of spring. 
I have to totally agree, it makes me feel fresh and smiley and really reminds me of spring time and flowers blossoming etc! Amazing how lighting 3 candle wicks can totally take you away for a moment!

Treatment - This lively blend of happy notes will make you smile, take the weight off your shoulders and sprinkle a little joy into your world.



Now the price of these candles are £37.50 directly from their website. It is a little too pricey however the size of the candle, i'm pretty sure it will last you at least more than a month (if you burn it every few days for a few hours)

It does say to light for a MINIMUM of 2 hours to make sure that the wicks burn evenly so that you get the most from your candle and also for a MAXIMUM of 4 hours.




Just soo relaxing to watch! And again, another perfect pressie for Mummy on mothers day! =)

Have you ever tried these candles?
