Spring Wishlist =]
This was a nude/pink shade, and had a lovely texture -
more sheeny than a block of colour, but I though that
would be lovely for spring and summer. The lipstick
also smelt gorgeous - literally of mango and citrus fruits.
I found out the lipstick retails for £2o - not cheap, but YSL
is such a lovely luxe make up brand, I would definitely
consider buying this - keep a look out and see if i manage
to! if anybody else has tried this lipstick, id love to hear
what you made of it =]
Secondly, I saw that Clinique has a new foundation out.
I think Clinique really knows what it's doing when it comes to skincare and foundation - I've used it's even better foundation for the last couple of years.
However, i'm extremely pale, and even the palest shade of that foundation still comes out a bit orange on me - particuarly in winter.
So, i've decided that until summer when (hopefully!) ill have more colour on my face, i need to find a foundation which is a lot better suited for my skin tone
When I picked up the palest tester they had of Anti blemish solutions foundations, i was amazed to see how much paler it was than my current foundation! It had a lovely texture, and blended perfectly onto my face.
This is also £20, but foundation is one of my staple items,
so I aim to buy this next time I'm in Debenhams!
If anybody else has tried this foundation, please tell me
how you found it!
Peace and love, Rose xxx

This stuff really is amazing, in an earlier post i said i use talcum powder and dry shampoo on my hair - i always use bed head first to smooth everything down, and then powders to give it a bit of oomph. If anyone has curly hair prone to frizz, using these two items seriously helps it after nights out :))

volumious hairrr
Even though i have curly hair it's not wonderfully thick, and i really hate thin looking hair.
To stop this, i love dry shampoo, but as this can be quite expensive (i dont like using batiste even though its cheaper) so i tend to use talcum powder instead
I first read about using this as an alternative a couple of years ago, and i completely agree
Because my hair is such a light blonde I can get away with it, it takes away any oily residue and gives my roots volume as well
Just don't use perfumed talc or you'll smell like a baby, i use simple talc to avoid this :)

I call it my nicest because everything about it is amazing - it thickens, lengthens and defines amazingly, and is such an intense black it provides a really dramatic look
The best thing about this mascara id have to say though is its to die for smell - that horrible acidic smell you often get with mascaras is reinvented as one that seems infused with perfume! I think the price is worth that alone, it makes such a difference and the signature luxe gold packaging is a welcome addition to any make up bag :)
Best Mascaras :)
My favourite day-to-day mascara that i wear for school would have to be maybelline colossal lash mascara. There's so much praise for this on the blogging community, and i completely agree.
It thickens and lengthens extremely well, and i really like the thick brush. At the minute Im using the brown version of this mascara as it was discounted, but i cant say i notice that much difference between that and the black version!
However, this might be because im so pale, and if you have darker skin, you might want to opt for the black
