At the bottom, we have a few pieces of jewellery that i managed to pick up whilst i was in town recently from Accessorize. I absolutely adore Accessorize, their jewellery is absolutely a-ma-ZING there! It is a little pricey, so i can never pick up more than a couple things once i have saved my pennies :P However, managed to grab these beauties in the 75% off sale! The zebra, hot pink flower ring cost me £2.20 and the 'pearl snowflake' vintage inspired earrings cost £2.70.. rather bargainous i thought! :P
Next, we have a new blush that has managed to work its way into my collection. I received this in a swap on Makeupalley from a very kinda swapper. I've never tried any Shu uemura cosmetics, but I've heard amazing things, so i was vair, vair excited ^^
And i was not disappointed :) the blush i have is a 'Glow on' in 'M Pink 31'. It's a very slightly cool toned, light baby pink... reminiscent of MAC's Well Dressed... but in my opinion more pigmented. I'm about an NC20/25 and this imparts a lovely healthy glow on the cheeks... i can safely say i love it. Evidence? I've been using this almost everyday!
Another thing that I'm loving recently, is my first ever BB cream! A bit late to jump on the band wagon of BB creams, i know, but since only very recently, i had no idea what a BB cream even was :/ i know i know, how silly of me, especially seeing as I'm asian myself!
This is the Lioele Triple solution BB cream, which has whitening, wrinkle repair and promises to give a natural, clear skin tone. Seeing as this is the UK, the only way i think you can purchase a specifically asian BB cream is online. I bought mine on Ebay from a fantastic and lovely ebayer, check out her store here, for about £19.50. I might do a more in depth review and FOTD using this, so you can see the finish and shade. It is a perfect shade for me, but is quite light, so perhaps not suitable for darker skin tones. I've been using this for quite a while now and i can safely say I'm loving it :D
Last but not least! I received a special package a couple days ago.. (thank-you lovely postman!) drum roll pleeeease...
Ta-dah!!! It's my lovely Tous Bear pendant ^^ This was courtesy of the lovely Ashley; I won her competition on her amazing blog Ring My Bell , which took me by complete surprise, as i never win anything! Big thanks to Ashley, as this was such a generous and certainly adorable giveaway :) He's been hanging round my neck almost religiously and has accumulated numerous compliments :P
Sorry for the rather long post! Hope anyone who has stumbled across this is having a lovely summer and has recently enjoyed a glorious bank holiday weekend :) feel free to share your recent shenanigans and finds with me, i'd love to know... X
