Autumn/Winter 15 Reading List

Recently I've really got back into reading and since I shared my favourite books over the summer I thought it might be nice to let you guys know what I'm looking forward to reading over winter.

Nails Inc. Uptown

Nails Inc. Uptown

I got this colour as part of the Autumn/Winter collection, and it's got to be my favourite out of the set. The set also includes Grosvenor Crescent (aubergine) and Battersea Park (khaki).

Brow Power

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz v. Soap & Glory Archery Brow Pencil

Battle of the Brows

Brows are a major part in most make-up routines nowadays. Whether you love them super strong or barely there - I'm somewhere in the middle; personally I never feel right without my brows on. It's all about how well they frame your face making you look that little bit more put together. 

Hello September: Part 1

My First Festival

Most people love festivals. You're considered crazy if you don't. I'd never been to one until this month, but I decided (slightly reluctantly) that now would be a good time to give it a go. I chose to go to Bestival, on the Isle of Wight at the start of September with Oxfam (link here).

Nails Inc. Regents Place

Nails Inc. Regents Place

I've always gone for something more reddy-pink on my nails. I didn't really have the confidence to pull off something as vibrant as blue, but summer was a great time to give it a try. Regents Place is a cornflower blue, and I think it's great for Spring straight through till Autumn. The colour is quite gentle but still whacks a bit of a punch!

Millie Macintosh Soho Lashes

Millie Macintosh Soho Lashes

I've never tried fake eyelashes, well not until I tried these. I mentioned them in a previous post (link here) and promised that I would let you guys know how I got on. So, here's the verdict...

Estée Lauder Kendall Jenner Restless

Estée Lauder Kendall Jenner Restless Lipstick

Yaaasss! I finally got my little paws on this bad boy and I'm so excited. This is a limited edition lipstick designed by Estée Lauder and the gorgeous Kendall Jenner. It's also an online exclusive so if you want to get your hands on it you better be quick (link here). 

August Birchbox

August Birchbox - link here

Last month I decided to treat myself to a Birchbox, it was a very last minute decision but I'm glad I made it. This was definitely a good box to get started, I feel like I've been hooked. Uh oh!

St. Tropez In-Shower Gradual Tan

St. Tropez Gradual Tan In-Shower Lotion

I decided to give this a go at the start of the summer after seeing it floating around the beauty bloggers and YouTube scene. It's described as a gradual tan that will build up over time or as a great top-up for your already-there tan. 

My University Tips & Tricks

Bournemouth Beach Sunset

I'm starting my second year at university and I thought I'd share some of the things I've learnt in my first year. Firstly I will say that my university is an Arts University - meaning I don't have any exams, I'm assessed continuously over the 3 years. Personally I prefer this approach, I've never been great at exams and always felt overshadowed by A* grade friends.
