make a little money, buy a fancy car. - mixed reveiw

here are some of my latest purchases.



Formula 10.0.6's seriously shine free moisturiser does exactly what it says it will - it gives you a matte finish, oil free face. it provides a great base for makeup, and is especially effective if applied after using exfoliator. i cant go past sportsgirl's 'scrub up' (shown below). it smells absolutely divine, and works beautifully. 
i have been using Biore's pore strips for a little while now, and while i love the idea of them, cannot get them to work for my skin. no matter how hard i try, the strips come away clean from my face, and dont take any blackheads with them. on the other hand, they work brilliantly for my best friend, so this is a mixed reveiw, they may or may not work for you. 
Natalie Bloom is a genius, and i can say wholeheartedly that i love bloom products. one of my favourites is this little lip pot, which i have been using for years, and it works a treat. it smells better than any other lip balm i have ever used, and is really moisturising without feeling greasy. my favourite is the scrumptious lips in strawberry. 

this amazing iPhone case has been on my wishlist for a while now, and my dad found it for me the other day. i dont really have much to say about it, other than that its perfect, and feels amazing to hold.

i went a bit nuts in American Apparel this week. i fell in love with these stockings, as i cant avoid anything pastel, and i knew that i would feel a bit like a fairy in them. i was a little dissapointed in them, as the opacity made them too see-through on my legs to actually see the colour difference. none the less, they are still a very cute pair of stockings, and i am fully prepaired to go back and get them in other colours to see if they work better. 
i also bought this velvet bow, which i have prettty much not taken off since i bought it. the texture is amazing, the colour is beautiful, and it is so versatile in the ways it can be worn. i absolutely 100% recommend this one.
these chiffon topped cotton socks absolutely made my day. they are beyond comfortable, and i wanted to buy some in every colour combination. perfect. American Apparel cant go wrong, no matter what they try!

the last item on my list is this copy of yen. i absolutely adore yen anyway, but this issue was especially incredible due to the amazing, 21 song mixtape they included. every song on the album is a whimsical wonderland, and i guarantee your mood will go up by 100% after listening to this genius compilation.


anyway. heres to you darling .
