Cheeky wee purchase

So recently I decided to spoil myself and I got a bunch of stuff I knew would work on my skin! Clinique was calling my name ...I don't joke it called me! Anyway let me show you what I got myself. 


Chubby stick highlight and contour, cheek pop in blush pop and also an eye primer from urban decay. 

Reviews

Chubby stick
These are amazing and I would highly recommend them to anyone with super dry skin. They are very hydrating, doesn't make your skin flake and has a beautiful finish.
 

Cheek pop, blush pop
It's so pretty, it's not that pigmented however it builds up really well. Can give you a beautiful shuttle blush or an intense blush. Again creamy and hydrating with a beautiful finish.

Urban decay eye primer
What can I say it smooths out the eye, makes makeup last longer plus is anti ageing which is a wee bonus and a good thing to start using even at a young age. 
 
So here is a wee picture of what they look like together. Excuse the t-shirt done my face in my jammies. 



Lots of love Iona <3

In love ❤️

So it's official I have found the love of my life. The too faced chocolate pallet is far too pretty. The colour pigment is so good!! I had a little play with the pallet last night as my new real technique brushes came. So was super excited.

The colours blend so nice making the look more
natural. 


I just totally love how easy it is to create a natural 
look and yet have so many different
colours to choose from!

I would defiantly recommend this product to anyone who is a fan of eye shadow or even just likes the smell of chocolate! and who doesn't !!

lots of love,
Iona

Too Faced chocolate palette


So I have had my eye on the Too Faced Chocolate Bar pallet for quite sometime. I first seen it in a youtube video From head to toe. The colours just looked really beautiful perfect nude shades I was in love as soon as I saw it! Another plus to this product is that it actually smells like chocolate and boy it does. I will do some swatches and eye looks with this product really soon...I promise!     

 
 Can we take a second to appreciate the beautiful packaging,
it's so pink and pretty and girly! and, and, and I
Just adore it.
<3
As you can see this pallet also looks like a chocolate bar
and who wouldn't want an eye pallet to look
like chocolate 
<3

welcome inside!
As I said filled with beautiful nude shades but
also some darker colours in there. I am so excited to 
use this <3

I did have one problem though! trying to purchase or order this product was quite the hassle! unfortunately this company do not deliver to the UK. So I had do find it from somewhere else and found it at debhinams! Here is the lovely link to this beautiful creation.
lots of love

Fitness Freak!


I have decided to get a little more fit! It's not because I want to be super skinny or have an amazing bum like Jen Setler. It is because I need a balance for the amount of food I eat! I love food far to much to diet, if I had to live without pizza or chips and cheese I think I would die! So I am balancing them eat fatty foods but attend the gym and hopefully this will keep my weight at a reasonable level. If this won't work please let me know and maybe just maybe I will cut down on some fatty foods. So I have been going to the gym in leggings and I hate wearing them as trousers, I feel so self conscious of my bum or pants being visible. So hear is my new fitness gear that I ordered! the link will be below. 


<3
Oula Tank 
I always wear black and decided I needed
something colourful in my life. I went for this coral 
colour and I have to say I love it already!


<3
West Wood Pull Over
For the days when I don't feel so colourful
I can just slip this on and still feel comfortable.
Plus will keep me warm outside!


<3
Camacan Capri
Finally I got proper fitness leggings
where no bums or pants should be visible. 
I love these because they have a small amount of detail,
meaning i won't be so boring even with the black pull over!


I got all these from Just Fab which has a new fitness range designed by Kate Hudson (who I love).
So please take a look if your a fitness freak or even beginning because these outfits will help motivate you and also give you a little for confidence and comfort!

Some handy bits!



So recently the Fiancé has decided he is going to make me a desk that will be designed specifically for all my womanly needs! eeeek! not going to lie, I am super excited for it! So I have done some planning myself. So with out further a do let me show you some handy bits I have ordered!


<3 
so this is one of two make-up organisers. 
I love these these! they are so well spaced and make
everything look well kept and well treated! 

<3 
so this one is more or less the same...
except there is a mirror, I know not really worth it 
but... this guy will sit on top of my desk instead of in my drawer!


<3
so I don't know about you guys but
things like this are so good, they keep bits and bobs
all in one place and neat and tidy to. So really happy with 
this buy!

  
<3
If I want to keep things neat this would have been 
my number one problem, but not anymore! This item 
is going to make my life less of a hassle. so super excited for
this coming!!


<3 
the last thing I got, I got 
because when I seen it it made me so happy!
I am a big fan of cute things and this tissue house gets
5 gold stars for cuteness.

So when all is completed desk and decorations I will post images of my beautiful new work area. I don't think I will ever leave my room when it is done! All the images and products are from http://www.aplaceforeverything.co.uk/home-storage/jewellery-storage-makeup-storage
Have a lovely day!

I am disgusting!

So I was pretty tired after work last night and went straight my beddy byes. However I was a little silly as I went to bed in full make-up. My lipstick totally vanished but my eye-liner and brow pencil did not! I felt like a big dirty haha can I just take a second to mention that it was not pouting in this photo, my lips look so good when I wake up but as the day goes on they deflate. Can someone...anyone tell why this has to happen :(

Clinique


My skin is the most annoying thing in my life! I have exczeme which just extremely dry skin and trying to find a moisturiser that will fully hydrate my skin is difficult. My skin tends to adapt to creams and baisically becomes immune to them, so...this means forever changing my moisturiser. Which is not fun or cheap. However last month I purchased Clinique moisture surge which is more like a gel than a moisturiser and not going to lie it is so far the only cream I haven't had to swap within weeks. So hopefully I will get my money's worth out of this product! When I put this on it does make my skin feel soft but I can still get some dry section. Like between my eyebrows, this is always fixable though I just apply a little more and it seems to help. So I recommend if you have dry skin to use this product, it works for me anyway!

Red lips!

Today I decides to go for a smoky eye and red lip look. I have to say I went a bit crazy with my liquid liner and winged them out more than usual but I love make-up to much to hate what I did. I will apologise for my hair as it is a bit mental at the moment, it has no idea what it's doing with it's life. #make-up #bad-hair #liquideye-liner #red #benefit #bobbibrown

Ooh la lift!

I love this product it is actually insane how much more awake it makes you look in the morning. I apply this product underneath my eyes to get rid of black circles or tired eyes before I apply any other make up, Jensen the beautiful photos. But if you can I would definitely buying benefits ooh la lift it's wonderful.
