Highstreet Sweet Highstreet

The 2012 Designer Pudsey Collection I think Katie Grand's (Love magazine editor)  idea of having designers club together to create a collection of Pudsey bears to be auctioned off to charity is amazing. Not only is it interesting to see all their unique twists on the iconic, originally yellow bear, but every single penny goes straight to Children in Need, supporting great causes improving the welfare of disadvantaged children and young people in the United Kingdom. I definitely have a few favourites from the collection. Firstly, I think the Mulberry bear, complete with a miniature Mulberry over the shoulder bag, is adorable! The bear itself is rather understated, with just a tan suede effect all over and dark brown facial features, which echoes the minimalistic yet stylish nature of Mulberry bags and purses themselves. I also love the Vivienne Westwood bear, with the signature use of all colours making up the Union Jack and the silly expression on the face of the bear. I thi

My Favourite Lip Products! 1. Benefit Posie Tint (around £24.50) available at Debenhams/Boots/House of Fraser/John Lewis/Online. I really debated on whether to get this product or not as £24.50 seemed quite extortionate for a tint but it leaves my lips the prettiest "poppy-pink" colour after just simply dotting a tiny bit of it on. I never use it as a cheek stain as I am not too keen on using liquid-y tints on my face as they feel quite greasy. 2. Kate Moss for Rimmel Lipsticks in the colours 20 (old collection, black tube) and 107 (new collection, red tube) (around £5.50) available at Boots/Superdrug/Online. I always wanted a bright pink lipstick and a dark red lipstick but didn't fancy forking out a lot of money, so when I saw these colours in Boots for just over £5, I knew I had to have them. In high street stores, I never try the lipstick on as they only leave an over-used tester out on the shelves, so I was quite worried that due to the matte-looking text

Everyday Skincare Routine    From watching beauty gurus on YouTube for years, I came across many positive, raving reviews of Liz Earle's Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser . I caved in and decided to purchase this product myself a couple of weeks ago. I bought the 100ml pump starter kit for £14.25 (and P&P was around £3) which comes in a handy zip-up pouch with 2 muslin cloths (basically unbleached cloths) and a 50ml sample of their Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic , which is £12.50 for a 200ml bottle. The cleanser has definitely earned a firm place in my skincare routine, I love the fact that you can put it all over your closed eyes to completely remove make-up, as it contains no harsh ingredients which could harm them, and then you easily wipe it off with a damp muslin cloth. I do also like the toner but after the sample is used up, I am going straight back to my beloved Witch Hazel , which I have been a fan of for years, and costs just £2.15 from Lloyds Ph
