New Relases // Tanya Burr by eye Candy


 
 
I'm sure you are all going to be aware of the newest make-up line out which of course is coming from the gorgeous Tanya Burr by eye Candy or what it's been known as since the beginning of December #tanyaburrlipsandnails - I'm sure we have all used that hashtag at least once! The line includes 12 lip-glosses and 10 nail polishes. There are colours for everybody from the classic nudes, bold bright or vampy reds there really is a shade for everyone and that perfect shade (or shades plural in my case!) comes with a super cute name. You can tell that Tanya and everyone she has worked with really have thought about the products and they really are personal to her, just have a glance at the names of the items and you will know that Tanya really has names the products after her favourite things!

The Lip-glosses are priced at £6.99 and come in two different finishes which are crème and shimmer. Each lip-gloss has a doe-foot applicator and are designed to have a long lasting shine. The Colours are:
Afternoon Tea
Just Peachy
Champagne Toast
Aurora
Picnic in the Park
Chic
Vampire Kiss
Lets Travel The World
Heart Skipped A Beat
Exotic Island
Smile, Dream, Sparkle
First Date
 
The Nail Polishes are priced at £5.99, the colours are of course stunning as you would expect just like the adorable name. There is a colour for everyone from baby pinks, bright corals and deep reds. The nail polish bottles are square in shape and have Tanya's logo on the front of the bottle, they also hold 12ml of product which is pretty average for a nail polish. They are also meant to be long-wearing, chip resistant and non-fading which a high shine finish which ticks every box for me! The Colours are:

Mini Marshmallows
Peaches & Cream
Bright and Early
Be Bright, Be Happy
Little Duck
Mischief Managed
Riding Hood
New York Night
Midnight Sparkles
Penguin Chic
 
You can currently get the lip-glosses and nail polishes at Feel Unique, which also has free international shipping! They are also going to be available in store soon but it hasn't been announced where yet (most likely Boots or Superdrug). I haven't had a chance to order mine yet but I defiantly know what I am wanting to get, and that leaves little left! I feel so proud and happy for Tanya, I have been watching her videos for years and years - and it's so amazing to see how she's grown and how much she's achieved! I can't wait to see what else Tanya has got in store for us and I can't wait to get my hands on everything!
 
Are you planning on getting any of Tanya's products?

Maybelline - The Falsies Black Drama Mascara // Review



We are all after long flutters lashes and to be honest we all need a good mascara that gives out lashes volume and length that actually stays on your lashes and doesn't end up down your face! I have tried many mascaras in my time in fact within the last few months I've bought three different Maybelline mascaras just because it need to try them all and they all do such different jobs! I'm sure you have all heard of The Falsies by Maybelline it is spoken of quite highly from  lots of bloggers and I've defiantly joined the Maybelline The Falsies fan club without a doubt! In this photo I only have mascara on no other make-up, not even concealer or foundation just so you can get a good idea of what the mascara actually looks like. I have however curled my eyelashes as I refuse to put mascara on un-curled lashes!
 
Maybelline says: "False lash glam with a flare, instantly! Patented Spoon Curler Brush fans out lashes from corner-to-corner, while our Pro-Keratin formula instantly builds volume without clumping. Unique flexible wand lifts and separates lashes to provide the look of 300% more visible, lashes." I defiantly agree that it goes corner to corner, it's really easy to get the corner lashes.    

The packaging is similar to most of the Maybelline mascaras with the curved top and bottom, and since this is the black drama version it has the black lace print at the top. As I mentioned above the wand is curved with helps to catch all lashes and give them extra volume, it also makes it easy to do your bottom lashes without making them clump together. It is priced at £7.99 available at Boots, as well as Superdrug.

Overall I absolutely love this mascara, I have a natural love for Maybelline mascaras as I have tried the majority of them and have loved all the ones I have tried. This is however one of my favourites as that they do. I would say its the mascara between the mega plush mascara and the rocket volume mascara (both by Maybelline) as it gives the length the mega plush gives you get it still gives volume similar to the rocket volume. If you have tried all three you will totally understand what I mean. I would defiantly recommend this mascara weather you have tried almost every mascara out there or your new to make-up it's a must to your collection and you have to give it a try!

 
Have you tried The Falsies?

My Wishlist #5 // New Year, New Wardobe


 
I have been wanting to re-vamp my wardrobe for months now, but I've been on a saving spree therefore I haven't been buying much let along new clothes. I am now however in despite need of new clothes. So whist I am scanning my favourite shops - online first though do you do that as well look online and then go in store to get it? I rarely order clothes online as they often look nicer online than in person. Anyway I thought I would share with you the items that I am thinking of getting and you can share your opinion of what I might/ hope to get.

1, River Island - Cream V Neck Cami Top // A theme your going to see in this post is basic items that I can pair with both jeans and skirts and can be dressed down and dressed up. I think this is something that could go with quite a lot and it's only £12!

2, River Island - Light Pink Raglan Sleeve T-Shirt // Again something that is really versatile and could look cute with both jeans and skirts. I also love the colour of it.

3, Warehouse - Jacquard Jewel Neckline Tee // This is something that isn't like me to wear with the jewelled neckline, not because I don't like them just because I have never owned them before. I think this would look really nice tucked into a black skirt and maybe even a pair of black skinny jeans.

4, Topshop - Black Gathered Circle Skirt // I have been after a black skirt that can be you guessed it dressed up and down so that I can get a lot of use out of it. I haven't seen it in person yet but I hope its fits nicely.

5, Topshop - Black Crepe Pencil Skirt // This is purely for when I need to be more dressy and be more formal. This looks like it is exactly what I'm after.

6, Topshop - Black Leigh Skinny Jeans // I have a blue version of these jeans they are so soft and comfy but still look great on. I am despite for a pair of these and will defiantly be picking these up very soon!

7, Warehouse - Spare Box Chain Statement Necklace // Again I have wanted to get some statement necklaces for some months but haven't seen what I really love but this one I really love - hopefully it looks as nice in person!

8, Next - Natural Skinny Strap Watch // I am in despite need for the a watch, I have teeny tiny wrists and your typical watch will fall of my arm! I haven't owned a watch for about 3 years since my last one broke because I can't find any that I like or that fit me. Because the strap is material and skinny it should fit me - we'll just have to wait and see!

9, Warehouse - Zip Front Padlock Shopper // I love the look of my Zara City Shopper bag and totally love the idea of it but I find it really bulky and wide and I get flustered really easy especially when out and about and when a bag had a small handle and didn't consider it. This is very similar but is more open and has a bigger handle! I have only seen it in person in tan but they do have it in black and black is defiantly more practical.   

I hope you enjoyed this, I spend far to much time online browsing and well this is my way of justify those countless hours! I have however got a few years for wanting these new clothes like starting my make-up course and starting my freelance career as well as I haven't had new clothes for many many months!!
