MAC Hue Lipsitck


This post has been a long time coming, yes this is...my first ever Mac Lipstick! I know, I know call myself a beauty blogger but at least I now have one.

To be honest I had no idea what I was looking for formula wise I just wanted a nice every day colour for work and I ended up picking the gorgeous Hue.

Hue is a subtle pinky nude shade, kind of like a’ Your lips but better’, I think in the photo it doesn't really look like I’m even wearing any (I am, I swear) which can be a good thing if you’re planning to wear it for every day occasions. The formula is really creamy and doesn't dry my lips out.

I did find the staying power wasn't as great as I expected but I assume that’s because of the Glaze finish.
Nevertheless I love applying this and I think I have definitely caught the Mac Lipstick bug, Snob and Rebel are next on my hit list!

What was your first Mac Lipstick? Which would you recommend?

Currently Loving...

Nars Deep Throat Blush ♥ Origins Ginzing Eye Cream ♥ Maybelline Color Tattoo On and On Bronze ♥ Benefit Total Moisture ♥ Rimmel Kate 107 Lipstick ♥ Real Techniques Blush Brush

Deep Throat by Nars has to be one of the most beautiful blushes I own, it's a gorgeous warm coral colour with a very subtle of shimmer, its a bit more wearable for every day then the infamous Orgasm. This has been my go to every day blush for about 2 months now and I cant see it being replaces anytime soon.

The Real Techniques Blush Brush goes hand in hand with Deep Throat, it's like they were meant to be! The brush is so soft and applies the blush effortlessly, you really cant go wrong with real techniques.


Just as I ran out of moisturuser I received this little pot from Benefit for my birthday and I have to say i'm impressed. I've no had much luck with Benefit makeup but the skin care has been much better. this moisturiser leaves my skin so soft, I like to use it before bed.


No eye cream had really knocked my socks of until I tried this bad boy. The Origins Ginzing Eye cream is fabulous and just make you look do much more awake in the mornings, I couldn't be without this now.


The next to products are one's I've fallen back in love with. On and On bronze is stunning and so good at keeping your eye shadow in place. The name Colour Tattoo couldn't be more perfect as this stuff just doesn't budge!


Last is my trustly Rimmel Kate 107 lipstick, a real blogger fave and rightly so. The colour is so striking and it stays on my lips for hours, I'm quite lazy when it comes to topping up lipstick so when they have amazing staying power I know I have a winner.


What products are you loving at the moment?

Overnight Oats!

I am such an Instagram stalker these days, it has possibly become my favourite social networking site and I particularly love looking at food, yep that's the fatty in my trying to rear her ugly head. Lucky for me there are lots of accounts that are all about health and clean eating and something that regularly pops up are ‘Overnight Oats’. Probably the easiest thing to make ever it maybe shouldn't be called a recipe but i thought i would give you an insight in to my new favourite breakfast anyway.
You will need:

125ml Milk, I use unsweetend almond milk
2 large tbsp Greek Yoghurt
40g Oats
The Topping of your choice

Step one:
Add all the ingredients apart from your topping into a bowl.
Step 2:
Mix

Step 3:
Pour into an air tight Container and pop into the fridge.

Step 4:
Sleep

Step 5:
Wake up and add your desired topping to your oats (today I opted for banana and chocolate protein powder) and EAT.
            
It couldn't be any easier! And you have no excuse to miss breakfast.

I love to add blueberries to mine, and sometimes some sugar free jam or peanut butter or a bit of chocolate protein powder the options are endless.


So there we go quick, healthy, tasty breakfast. What did you have for breakfast today?

White Lace

Top: Choies* Jeans: New Look Shoes: New Look: Scarf: Asos

 Show me something pretty and girly and I’m all over it but I love to try and add a bit of edge to an outfit so it’s not so sweet and innocent.

My jumper from Choies is so beautiful and so soft! Do you ever have clothes that you just love to touch, is that weird? Well sometimes I can’t help it and you know you have something that’s good quality when you stroke it all the time haha.

The lace detailing on the arm is super pretty, the first time I wore this people were literally throwing compliments at me and for someone that is as self conscious as me it was really up lifting.
I added a red scarf to give my outfit that extra pop.

I think the little furry photo bomber is a fan of this outfit, what do you think?
