Favourite Red lip products and review



(L-R) 1.MUA Intense kisses unfortunately the name of this lipgloss has rubbed off and I was trying to look it up online but I can't find it! It's a rich raspberry red shade. The staying power of this lipgloss is amazing. I usually line my lips with a red lip liner first to prevent the gloss from bleeding and also to make it last longer to, and no it works perfectly. My favourite thing about this gloss is its not sticky and it applies effortlessly. 



2. Avon Crushed Rose. I have this a while and I forget what collection this came from. This shade had some sparkle but its not too intense just right I think. It's on the sheer side but with a lip liner underneath it brings up nicely. I also like to use a pink lip liner and go over with this gloss it's fab. The staying power isn't the best but I don't really mind all that much. The only bad thing about this gloss is its quite sticky. 

3. Rimmel (170) Alarm. Of my god I have this lipstick for so long that you can't even get it any more. I used never wear red lipstick before so it was in my collection for a good while before I got to it. This is a blue tones red and it's amazing. I love how it makes my teeth look whiter then they are. Staying power is ok. The only down side to this lip stick is that it bleeds a lot with or without liner. It's a soft and smooth lipstick and it doesn't dry out in my lips. 



4. Avon Red Kiss. I can't seem to find the full size of this lipstick. It's a deep raspberry shade. It's not summer shade but I still love it. It's a moist product and goes on really nice. The best thing is it doesn't bleed it has to be my favourite shade of them all. 


TIP: this is how I take off my red lip products. It annoys me that red lipstick and gloss alike leave your lips red so to prevent from this happening I take it off with a baby wipe. I would have lots of baby wipes around and it works with no problem! 

What is your favourite lip shade? 

Thank you all for stopping by!

Daily Life: Revenge

Hey guys. I haven't been a good blogger this past week or so. The reason being Jeff and I started watching Revenge. For the past week we have been watching six episodes a night as its so good and you just have to watch the next episode. As of last night we reached season two. There're only three seasons so far , its not to bad like. Maybe I should say what its all about for those of you that haven't seen it yet. Its about a a woman called Emily/Amanda she is getting revenge on the people that falsely framed her father for bringing down a plane and killing everyone on it. The people she is taken revenge on are all filthy rich and she is simply taking there money and the life that they had away from them. I won't tell too much as I don't want to spoil it for you if you would like to watch it.

What I love about it: 
The whole revenge thing is totally me. the casting is amazing. My favorite character would have to be Nolan Ross.  I know you I bet you were expecting me to say Emily, but no I do love her too but Nolan is just funny and I love the house he has in the first season. All the tech that Nolan has is is amazing and I would love to have the money that he has.

I was just looking for a nice picture from Google to put up with this post but I don't really like any of them. If it was a simple one I would put it up. I know this is a short post but I don't want to spoil for those who haven't seen it yet. If you haven't do, its so good and I am addicted.

What do you think of Revenge? Would you watch it?

Daily Life (So many bullies in this world!)

Hey guys. I have some few days. Last Saturday I had a christening and we had a party after. Rhys being Rhys was all excited having children to play with. with all the running around he fell a few time  and he was up again in a flash and it was all forgotten about. Shortly after that he had to fall again and graze his forehead. It was a nasty business. With in a half an hour he got a slap of a hurley again in the forehead. I could believe his luck all day. I had to leave the party early as I couldn't stay around thinking that the next time he fell it would be much more serious. I don't get much sleep that night as I was thinking about how Rhys fell. Its not a nice to have to watch your child crying with pain and there is nothing you can do to help them.

In the mean time my best friend has been having problems with her house and her house mates they are not the nicest people one you would meet. I was trying to keep calm for my friend sake as I don't like to see my friend hurt. She is moving out in the next week to two and I will much happier that she will be happy. I can't understand how girls can be so bitchy and don't care how the other person feels. They are so many bullies in this world its not even funny.

In a happier not I am looking for a new home to move it. There is going to construction going on near where I live so I want to move so that I can enjoy my summer. I don't know were to move to yet but I am looking into it. I would like a place with a back yard so that Rhys would have somewhere to play. At the moment we had two dogs and they eat everything and I can't put out swings or a slide. He loves going to the park as all kids do. The park are very rough sometimes, you have to go in the morning while all the big kids area at school and there are only babies in the park.

I think that's all for today guys. I hope you enjoy this post.

What have you been up to in the last week?

Yesterday's outfit of the day

Hey guys. I had a christening yesterday and this is what I wore. Now I don't have pics of me wearing the close as I was rushing to get to the church. 




The top is from penny's I got it in sale for €5. I can never pass a bargain. 


This is the back of the top. It's just fab and its like my favourite top for the summer. 


My skirt is from NewLook and u think it was something like €12. It's a high waisted shirt and I love it


 My shoes are from penny's too. These shoes sparkle in the sun that's why I chose them. 

What do you think of this outfit?

Rendezvous with you

Hi guys. The other day I was in Sally's beauty supplies. I love going in and having a look at all he nail polishes. There are some that I can't get as they are a bit to expensive for my pay range. 


Rendezvous with you by China Glaze! 

This picture doesn't do it much favours in real life it's fab. 

As much as I love nail polishes I don't really follow collections. When I got this one I knew it was from a collection as it was on reduction and the original collection is never on reduction. Anyway when I got home I looked up which collection this was from and it's from the autumn collection. There was a few more that I might go back and get. 


I love that all you need is one coat and it just looks fab. It's my second time wearing this nail polish. I know it's not a summer shade but I still love it. 

What is your favourite shade by China Glaze?

Daily Life: Rhys shouting ONE POUND!

Hi everyone. I hope you all had a nice weekend and going to have a great weekend. Last night I redone my blog the template if you have noticed. I think that it looks pretty cool. I love stars. There was a green one with shamrocks and it was really me too the fact that I am Irish and all. When I started to play around with it I did't really like it, it was too green for me. My next mission is going to be looking up on how to do all the short cuts to my social networks. I am on everything some of them I don't really use, like Beautylish I think that's what it is called. I am getting used to Tumblr. I do have a personal Facebook account and a fan one but i don't have many people following that page as I don't really spend the time on that page.

I am currently looking for a better phone that I have and I seen one for €80 its an IPhone 3S. I know what your thinking that its old and blah blah, its much better then what I have right now. I like the fact that is 16 GB. I am using my IPod and that is only 8GB and its no good to me. It goes dead half the time and the memory is nearly go in it.

In other news Rhys got a Peppa Pig magazine and with it came a page that you can cut out and play with. So I went off and cut all the pictures out for me thinking that he will play with them. All Rhys was interested in doing was telling me 'One Pound' it wasn't even telling me it was more like shouting 'One Pound'. I had to laugh. I don't know it it odd for him to be into Peppa Pig or not. All the toys of Peppa Pig in the store are pink and for girls. I have never seen a boy with a Peppa toy.

Coming up: In the next few days I will do a post on my current nails. I bought a new polish and I know it is a old collection but I really liked the shade and I don't have anything like it. I love nail polish but if i already have similar shade I am more likely to get something else. I don't have a huge place to store my nail polishes in all I have is a shoe box at the moment and all my polishes fit into that.

I don't think i have much more for you guys today. A little boring but sure you might get to know me better this way. Well I hope so anyway.

Nails of the day

Hi everyone I hope you all had a nice weekend.

Last Friday I did my nails and I have to say it wasn't as bad as it could be. I did the hearts free hands that's why they are not the same shape or size. 


I know I smudged one nail, the polish didn't dry.  The yellow polish is NYC Lexington Yellow. I have been looking for a nice yellow polish that would suite my skin tone. 

This yellow needs at least three thin coats or two slightly thicker coats. 


The wine stripers is from the Rio metallic   collection. I didn't use those stripers and pen all in one. As I didn't know how to use them right. 

I hope you like my nail art! 

Have you any suggestions for me for the next nail art to try.
