plump pout?


What it says:
Award-winning in two countries, for a sexy pout without the collagen injections, Lip Volume is the perfect solution. A semi-permanent treatment which gives you plumper, fuller, seductive lips that are left feeling soft and totally kissable!

What i think:
I liked the packaging, it explained the product and when you lift the lid up the product is held nicely in the middle to pull out. I like the doe foot applicator, however i prefer to apply this with my finger as i feel it works the product into my lips better.

It has a lovely mint scent to it, nothing over powering, just a hint. It doesnt 'sting' your lips when you apply it like some plumpers can, you almost forget youve put it on until youve caught your reflection in a mirror etc. You apply it about twice a day, i found that on the 3rd day of usage you could see the fullness beginning. After about 3 weeks of using i got one of the best compliments, i was told that i had 'very kissable looking lips' im happy with that :)

My only negative about this is that it can dry your lips out a little, so after the product has been absorbed i apply a touch of lipbalm just to balance this out.

I love using this for giving a natural, lasting plumped lip, i dont use it every day now just every other day i think thats enough for my lips.

RRP: £19.95

MAC full coverage foundation - quick review

shade: nw 25

This over the past two weeks has become my HG foundation gives me the perfect coverage that i dont need to set with powder. It lasts all day, it still looks perfect at 6pm in the evening. It is a FULL COVERAGE hence the name, so it might feel a little heavy and too much for some, i personally love this type of formula.

It also doubles up as concealer for the days when i have a breakout or dark circles, but you dont always need to double up because the initial cover is flawless.

I apply this with my fingers as i find this way the product warms up and blends better, then i take a 187 and go over once just to really buff it into my skin.

Question: Have you tried this? What did you think?

HOTD update

just took my hair out of the braid partly and i got this loose curl/wavy look which im loving.. im thinking i might have my hair like this for christmas day - but neater lol

only product i used today was my chi hair spray, love the hold of this stuff adds a little bit of shine and doesnt give the 'crispy' texture some hair sprays can give.

Merry Christmas
