Highstreet Sweet Highstreet

Last week I went to Poland with two of my friends, primarily going for the Auschwitz tour (yes, no “Maga” or “Napa” for us) but once I found out their local shopping centre contained a Sephora and Inglot store, the excitement for our trip definitely built! The first thing I purchased from Sephora was this highlighter. The pigment is stunning (I took a photograph with the flash on and off so you can see how the flash picks up the shimmer, you can tell it photographs well and would look awesome on photos from nights out!) and it only cost me £8ish, can’t remember the exact amount of Polish zloty. Also from Sephora, I picked up this “Ultra vinyl lip pencil” which was on sale for 21 zloty, which is around £4. The pigmentation on this is also amazing but the colour kinda reminds me of Christmas. I’ve also just realised you have to sharpen it as I thought you could just twist the bottom, oops. Excuse the wonky mouth and dodgy smile. I also picked up these 4 brushes. I thought t...

Garnier Fructis Surf Hair ASDA - £1.50 150ml After using Bumble and bumble.’s Surf Spray, I wished to find more products which would have a beachy effect on my hair. Reviews of the B&b. Surf Spray are rather negative online and I often see reviewers directing people to this product   – Garnier Fructis Surf Hair. I came across this product in ASDA for £1.50 for a 150ml tub, which is a complete improvement on the £8.50 price tag of a 50ml bottle of B&b. Surf Spray. The product has the typical fruity aroma which is associated with the Garnier Fructis range, which I love. The texture is a “Matte Gum” and all you have to do is scoop a little bit out of the tub and warm it up into your hands and then work it into your hair; bending, twirling and scrunching it until you reach your desirable style of beachy waves. In comparison to the Surf Spray, it is apparent that this product is much better to use on your hair in terms of not drying it out.   MUA Lipstick ...

I think "the one" has finally been found. During the day, I find foundations too heavy and "cakey" for my skin, as although I complain about my complexion a lot, I do have pretty good skin which tends to behave most of the time. I prefer using BB creams for a light to medium coverage as I find they are less clogging of my pores so the vicious cycle of 'pore-clogging -> spots -> apply more foundation -> pore-clogging -> spots' never really occurs and they are hydrating enough for me not to have to apply a moisturiser beforehand. I must have tried about six BB creams so far in the past year from various brands and I haven't been majorly impressed, then I spotted this little wonder in The Body Shop. I picked up shade 01 in their Colour-Adapting Tinted Cream for £12 last week and I am amazed every single time I use it. The cream comes out white, which at first I found a bit strange but thankfully when it is worked into the skin the...
