What's in my bag...and a review of the Rouge Bunny Rouge Mini lip gloss.

MY BAG

My Bag is by Mischa Barton-Bernie Across Body Bag. that my sister bought me for my birthday in April.
http://www.mischabartonhandbags.com/productdetails.php?productid=425

Was £45 but now £18. 
I was unsure of this bag at first because of the colour but I love it, I am never without it now!!!


Oh and an Ugg flip flop in the background....
Looking a little ropey there. 

The lining...

mess!!!



Essentials...I have hayfever so I need tissue's with me everywhere I go!!!
These were from halfpriceorless and were about 60p...I think.
Railcard
Work Badge for getting NHS discounts.
Three essential Lipgloss/sitcks.
Bobble-Soft ones
Pens-for work.
Bus tickets.....rubbish!

This is a CHANEL Lipgloss-Rouge Allure Laque 78. A bright pink.




 I keep this in my handbag for unexpected nights out. Always prepared!


It's easy to apply and is more like a lipstick when it's on. 

This is the Rouge Bunny Rouge-Mini Lipgloss. I received this in my glossy box from June. 
This lipgloss smells like...Sweets..I have asked my Mum and she thinks it smells like fruit salad sweets. I personally can not remember them. I really like the smell but it might not be to everyone's taste. 


Had to hold it between my knees...Also the label has worn off already as it's been in my bag for soo long.


You can't really see HOW shimmery this is on this picture but it is. It has small silver specs of glitter.
On the label it says this lipgloss is hydrating. I remember being very sceptical about this as soo many of my lipglosses make my lips so dry. However, I was pleasantly surprised with this gloss as it kept my lips soft from the first application and until it comes off. 




Then the last lipstick is by MAC and I love this lipstick! It is one of my favourites. It is called Satin Mocha.

I went to Sainsburys today and decided to get some candles for my room. This first candle, Wild Cotton 
says-  
A fresh and clean wild cotton (fragrance) with delicate floral undertones. 

I love the smell of this candle as it smells like the Isimiaki perfume. 
£1.50



This candle smells like Amberwood & Orange.....no surprises there! Making my room smell nice and sweet masking the fresh paint smell!
£1.50


This candle is the same but it is a bit bigger and in a glass tub. £2!




Went to the SALES in Laura Ashley and bought this Lovely Cushion.
Story behind this is....We had one left over roll of wallpaper so we exchanged it for this cushion. It will probably will go on my chair once the cover is finished but will have it on my bed at the moment.
Think it was £22 in the sale reduced from £40...(So expensive!) But we got it to the till and it was £17.50 so I think we only had to pay £2.50 towards it. Great!


Kim Kardashian Perfume. 

I have included this as I bought this a while ago but I really love the smell of this perfume. It smells like tuberoses! I wear it all the time but especially on a night out. Personally I think it's more of a winter perfume but it was only released recently in the UK.

My Bedroom! and more shopping...

FINALLY!
Here it is! Not entirely finished....but it will be soon!
Still awaiting a dressing table mirror which is still in the making. A chair cover annnd shabby chic picture frames to complete the look.




This Picture was taken at night so you can see the bedside lamp and how it is next to the wallpaper. The bedside lamp was form wilkinsons and cost £12.


Thought I would add this. Have had these pictures from being sooo young as you can see I am that fat baby on the right. My two sister's (who will love me for this) are on the left!



Curtains, brand new! Bought material from a place in Preston, think I mentioned it in another blog post. Then as if by magic my Mum transformed the material into some amazing curtains!....maybe one day I will learn how to make curtains.


Below this was taken at night and as you can see I am watching MissPrincessPancakes Video on Youtube! When my mirror comes it will not be this cluttered on my table, I hope!




Then...the light!! Will have to find a link for this...it was only from Wilkinsons think it was about £20.


The best dressing table ever! Shabby chic! Found this on ebay but then my parents went down to pick it up from a place in Blackburn. These on ebay and everywhere we looked for this kind of dressing table were selling for about £450!! However this dressing table AND chair cost £150. £120 for the table then £30 for the chair.
 Absolutely love it!


I also have a glass cover on this and on my bedside table. However I have a very handy Andy in the house who was able to make this for me to protect the surface of my dressing table....from various smudges/stains/eyeliner/eyeshadow/nailvarnish.......I could go on! Would advise anyone to have a cover on theirs to protect it seen as it is a very pale colour. 


Then this bedside table was a surprise as I didn't know I was getting this as well. Can't remember how much think it was£90.


Now today I went in to Lancaster for a bit of shopping. I have lost my eye lash curlers and I cant find them anywhere!! So decided to buy some more. I bought the 'modelsown' brand for £6 from boots.


I have really wanted some yellow and orange eye shadows....but couldn't really find any. The closest I could find was Maxfactor. I bought this and a Mascara, MasterpieceMax, high Volume & Definition Mascara. That was because my Mum wanted a new one. Then we got a 'free' gift....Which is in the stripy tin.





Also bought this eye liner as I ALWAYS use my bobbi brown gel eye liner but wanted a pencil just for when I am in a rush or being lazy. 



Comparison of the BarryM on the left and the MaxFactor on the right. You can't really tell here but in the natural light the MaXFactor one looks darker. 



Below....can't live without these...Love the Nose pore strips! I bought these for about £1.50 from everythinghalfpriceorless. Even if they don't really improve your skin they are just so satisfying to use! I only use these when I have had a week of not really taking my make-up off or have been on a night out and the next day my pores are really bad.
The spot szapping stick I have never used so will try that out and let you know how that is.


The Maxfactor freebie.


These were included in the tin.


This was in the tin.
~Mini Nailfinity Disco Pink
~Mini Vibrant Curve Effect Lip Gloss Bubbly
~Masterpiece Max Mascara Black 5.3ml
~Mini Khol Pencil Black




Ring from Urban Outfitters!

Will update this tomorrow! As I know I have forgotten the brush! Best buy from TKMax at £5!!!

Been Gone too long!!

Hi,

Sorry I have been gone a while now but have been keeping up to date with everyone who I am following!

Just been a busy few weeks with one thing and another. 

However my bedroom is now almost done! Will be putting up some pictures soon!!! Carpet is down, Curtains are up, and wallpaper done!!! It looks really good. I just now need to buy some accessories to finish it off.

Had to throw away so many things though, been hoarding things since GCSE!!!! 

I am so pleased with my wardrobe, it has been soo long since I have had all my clothes and shoes in one place. I even have all my winter wardrobe all boxed up and packed away neatly. 

So hopefully this weekend I will be uploading pictures of my room. 

I have also signed up to Glossy Box and need to blog about Junes and then I am expecting Julys soon. 

Hope everyone's well!

JB
