The Game Changer!


If you wear make up then you would know the hardest thing is trying to find your Perfect Foundation shade, well The Body Shop have recognised the struggle is very real and created Foundation Adjusting Drops.

There are two types, one to make your foundation lighter and one to darken.

Can you imagine no longer having to buy the same foundation in multiple shades to match your skin. I mean that's a huge saving right there.

 I recently picked up the darkening drops. I am yet to use this product but I do have about four foundations which are too light for me so I know I will get a ton of use out of this product. Considering 1 drop = 1/2 shade darker these drops will last you a very long time therefore providing great value for your money.


Also I have an upcoming vacation planned where I know I'm going to come back a couple shades darker so I cant wait to test this out.

P.S. There is also a new foundation range called Fresh Nude Foundation which is supposed to be amazing, with a good shade range so check it out guys.

You can buy the Shade Adjusting Drops from the Body Shop here


Has anyone tried it yet? Let me know in the comments what you think.

Primark Loving!

Alot of people have a love hate relationship with Primark but not me its all love. I love mixing items from high street stores. And Primark has to be one of my all time favourites, the stores I like to shop are Oxford Street, Harlow and Watford.

I have really been trying to shop my stash but when I saw these shoes, Of course I gave in to their calls for me to take them home, so I did. These heels are not the most comfortable (I have only worn them once) but they sure do make a statement.



















Top Tips for shopping in Primark:

  • If you are low on cash, accessories are an easy way to update your look with the latest trends, so shop shoes, bags,scarves and jewelry.
  • Head straight to the sale rails, trust me there are bargains to be had.
  • Try not to get overwhelmed, there is a lot to look at so either shop for specific items or shop methodically by sections.
  • Allow a reasonable of time for shopping- try not to rush around, 
  • Wear a dress (if possible) so its easy for you to try on clothes.
  • Always check labels rather than hangers for sizing.
  • If you cant find an item you are looking for check all around the store as items are often displaced.

Shoe love is true love!


What is it about shoes that makes us ladies fall in love. I mean we only have two feet right, so why do we need some many, I really don't know. Some people collect stamps or coins but I'm a shoe collector. I just cant help myself especially when there is a bargain to be had.These babies were originally £120 but were reduced to £19.99 what a bargain right. I just couldn't resist . I purchased the heels from the Kurt Geiger website however they sold out in a matter of minutes. I was able to find them in on Amazon where they are are available in Red, Black, Blue and Grey, there are limited sizes available so check them out before they are gone.

I cant wait to style these, I'm thinking grey jeans with a grey chunky cardigan, with a red lip of course or dressed up with a black polo neck and an A-line skirts.

These shoes are super comfortable and really make a statement.
