Miscellaneous Post
OOTD
White top/dress: Zara
Necklace: stolen from mother :P
FOTD
Eyes: Laura Mercier metallic cream eye colour in Rose Gold
Cheeks: MAC Warm Soul mineralised blush
A closer look at my mom's necklace:
Absolutely love it! Really complements a light, airy outfit.
Rekindled Love
Found my ring! It's a blue jewel (dunno what exactly) that my mom bought at a jewellery show that she got set for me. Gorgeous.
Need your help:
I'm having a tough time deciding between these 2 bags.
1. Mulberry Hayden tote
Super casual, super soft leather, super practical. SUPER LOVE!! This was the one my heart was originally set on.
2. Be & D Genesis bag
Also super casual, soft leather, a bit more stylised with the sewn edges and buckle detail.
I LOVE BOTH!! They both have that grungy casual look and ohhhh I'm having such a difficult time deciding on one.... PLEASE let me know which one you prefer!!! xxx

Another Spending Ban Haul... (whoops!)
I might as well give up on this spending ban!! Hahahah. Here's what I got today:
1. Garnier Skin Naturals Aqua Defense gel-cream
This product comes under the 'Fresh Essentials' range in the UK, instead of the Asian 'Aqua Defense' name. It contains antioxidant fruit water and vitamin E. The texture is gel-cream, meaning it's like a gel, but more moisturising. I've used it once so far and I'm liking it a lot! Compared to the Clinique Moisture Surge gel, which left my skin feeling tight, this one leaves my skin feeling comfortable and nourished.
2. Laura Mercier metallic cream eye colour in Rose Gold
Costing around £16 for 8.5g of product, this little beast is expensive! However, you only need the tiniest amount (literally the size of a sesame seed) for each eye, so the tiny tube will definitely last a long long time.
A sheer application (half the size of a sesame seed) gives a really beautiful sheer wash of rose and gold (go figure) shimmer. I can't wait to try this properly tomorrow, with a natural rosy blush and subtle lips.
3. The Body Shop tea tree oil
I bought this to treat the pesky little spots that have been showing up on my cheeks and forehead. This better dry them up good! Apparently The Body Shop sells one of these every 12 seconds (or is it 12 MINUTES?)
4. The Body Shop Deep Sleep Dreamy Pillow & Body Spray
This spray is infused with Community Trade date extract and camomile, which are supposed to enhance restful sleep. You spray it onto your pillow and sheets or your body (or all of the above), and the fragrance is supposed to ease you into a deep sleep. Also, throughout the night, your movements should release the fragrance (hahahha, don't look at me, that's what the bottle says!) I'll be trying this out tonight. Let's hope I wake up tomorrow feeling rejuvenated and refreshed!
FOTD
Eyes: Rimmel Colour Mousse 8 Hour Eyeshadow in Sassy, black eyeliner, black mascara.
Cheeks: Too Faced Mocha Mi Amore blush
Lips: nothing!
OOTD
Scarf: Massimo Dutti - Love this! Soo soft and airy light!
Black batwing top: ASOS
Pastel blue denim shorts: Bershka - Also LOVE! So comfortable and soft. They also make my legs look longer and leaner! I need all the help I can get haha.

Keeping It Simple
I don't know what possessed me to make that face.
Kept it really simple today. Black eyeshadow as eyeliner, plus mascara, plus bronzer. Done.
P.S. I'm loving my Laura Mercier mineral foundation! Don't even need concealer anymore. Not even under the eyes! xxx

I went shopping yesterday!
Sorry about these lazy posts... I could have taken pictures of everything I bought but that would have been a bit tedious... :P I will get back into the proper posts soon! Hope you enjoy the videos anyway :) Just busy studying for my 2 exams at the end of the month... so sick of studying and it's ridiculous that I still have to even after I've finished my uni exams! :(
