My top 5 spring lip products

So the uk is reaching into spring and I'm so excited to wear all my bright pink and coral lips. So I've decided to show you my favourite ones.
I have picked a range of lip products form lipsticks to lacquers to colour balms !. So let's get started.
So the first lipstick I'm talking about is a revlon lip butter in juicy papaya, this is more like a tinted lip balm because it is sheer and really hydrating. But for days that I don't want to dry my lips up I use this. It's a beautiful coral which is perfect for spring. Thes are perfect for spit ad and they are £7.99 
This is newly launched and it's a revlon cloudburst lacquer balm in coquette. This is a bright pink with glitter in, at first I didn't think I would like this became the glitter was really chunky but I really do. It's really hydrating but at the same time very pigmented,doesn't dry your lips and tastes really minty !!. And I would dupe these to the Clinique chubby sticks arp art for mothers are only £7.99
Now, everybody raves about these so I was bound to have one in here !. It's a rimmel kate moss lipstick in number 16. The only disappointing this about these are that they could have names instead of numbers but they are amazing. Only £5.50 I think and they are creamy ,pigmented and they just stay on for ages. Most drugstore lipsticks dry my lips out but these are really hydrating.

Next is my cheapest product , and it's an e.l.f lipstick in flirtatious for only £1.50 these are amazing. They and really pigmented and it's the perfect pink for spring. These taste miny as we'll.
My last product is another one from rimmel and it's a rimmel apoclips in celestial. This is a dark pinky I would say and really pigmented. These are lacquers so that stay on for a while,but I won't be wearing these on a really hot day and this can dry my lips out without a lip balm underneath. This retails for £5.99

Bourjois foundations: hot or not

So recently I picked up a new bourjois foundation, when I got home I realised I have 3 !. So I'm going to do a review on them. 
He first one I picked up was happy light. This is really nice it gives a lovely light coverage. (Great for spring) and it looks really glowy. It last for ages and doesn't break me out !. Also a bonus this smells really nice. 
Then I picked up the healthy mix with has massive mixed reviews. I picked up the foundation (not the serum) and I really like this. It does have more coverage that the happy light and 123 correcting foundations but I have to say this is my favourite one out of three. It is on the greasy side but I can deal with it. 

Lastly I picked up the 123 perfect correcting foundation. This has 3 different correcting colours in which blocks out dark,dullard redness skin. It makes you look really healthy and I always get compliments with this.

Birchbox uk - March 2014

So I have recently subscribed to birch box uk and I have to say I've been pretty impressed so I'd thought I'd share it with you ! 
The first product was a little life style extra .... 
It was a piece of lulu Guinness rock. I have to say this was a nice little extra as it taste very nice. It had a heart and birch box on the end of it.
The least favourite thing in the box was a perfume sample. I hate it whe nsubscribtion boxes put purgume samples in the boxes becaus you can just pick them up from any counter. This purgume was the English laundry by Christopher wicks it smelled really mature almost like the miss Dior close scent. 
We got a primer from dr Brandt this is a nice sized sample and the full sized retailers for £39 !. I would never pay that much I don't thing but it's really nice and I really like it. 
The next thing in the box was a hand cream from molten brown, for some reason I really like mini sized hand creams from subscription boxes. It always give you a range of hand creams to try and I have loved every single one. This has the scent of rhubarb and rose. I tonight this would smell odd but it just smells amazing,not greasy,quick drying and I think I might have to repurchase the full size. 
Those was by far the best thing in the box for me , I have wanted to try this for ages and I was just going to by the full size for £20 but I'm so glad I got the sample. This s quite a small sample but I guess you can use it a few times before deciding if you like it or not. It's really smooth and keeps concealer on really well. 
The last thing in the box was the mores citrus bidy milk, I was really disappointed in this poduct because I like Korea products bit this was really sticky and just smelled of clean air. I didn't like it at all. So far I am the only one who got this is the birch box I have been watching other videos and they all seemed to get a body oil, I am please that I got to try this though. 

So that was it for the birch box and I am going to keep my subscription, I do like it and I feel like it's chrsitmas every mouth just waitng for the suprise !!. 
Buy every one x

MUA blushes £1 - hot or not

So recently I have been picking up quite a few bits and bobs for MUA some I love so I don't love so much in this hot or not series I will be sharing with you my favourite and worst products from MUA. Today is powder blushes. 
I picked up 2 shades which are very different from each other , bubble gum which is a very dark bright pink and cupcake with is more of a neutruel peachy tone. These blushes last along time but I find that they both have different textures to each other. I deffanly prefer the bubble gum blush. 
So speaking of bubble gum here is a swatch , as you can see really pigmented and only a tiny bit chalky. But the chalky texture doesn't really bother me to much. The colour looks scary but really if you use the smallest amount it just gives a Flush of colour. 
Cupcake is a peachy neutral shade with not shimmer , I prefer matte blushes any day ( hence why I picked to matte shades.). This blush has more of a chalky texture which I really don't get along with. I don't see how they are so different ( in texture) to each other. I really don't like this one and won't repurchase it. 

So that was my review of the MUA blusher , I really do want to test out some more shades so If you know any good ones leave them in the comments.

MUA undress your skin highlighter - hot or not

There is not a bunch of good highlighters out in the drugstore but this one seems pretty raved about so I wanted to see what the fuss was all about..... 
This highlighter is only £3 and it's amazing!, it's got quite a blue undertone I think and it's very pigmented. You only need to use a tiny bit otherwise it looks like glitter has exploded all over your face !. 
As you can see it's a very nice chanpayney colour and it's really pigmented. The packaging reminds me a lot of the new MAC dimensions packaging. This defiantly stays on your face allay and you don't need to reapply though out the day. This is going to last for ever and it's only £3 !!. I suggest you go and buy this now all though I had to order of the MUA website because it's always out of stock in superdrug. 

Thankful so much for reading !!
If you need to contact me please email lushlover123@gmail.co.uk 
Cheers for now x

healthy breakfast idea #1

Ok so I'm going to do a series were I share seem healthy and quick breakfast options. Today I'm going to be showing you a healthy bowl of fruit and a lovely glass of milk ! 

Ok so I got a few grapes,blueberrys,strawberry sand cherry sand put them in a bowl. These fruits are all really good for you !. Blueberrys are great for your body and fruit does so much for you . It also fills you up. Next I just took a glass of semi skimmed milk because it's in the middle not really fatty but it doesn't taste like water !!. This gives you loads of calcuim which is great for your bones.

Thank you xxx
