7 Shades of Red I recently got a a sample box of different red lipsticks from Avon which I've been hugely impressed by, because of this I thought I would share them with you! 1. Red 2000 2. Berry Berry Nice 3. Poppy Love 4. Lava Love 5. Scarlet Siren 6. Perfect Red 7. Cherry Jubilee The first two shades ( Red 2000 & Berry Berry Nice ) look very similar to my eyes, a wonderful pure red colour but nonetheless very alike! The third colour ( Poppy Love ) has a slightly more orange tone to it which I feel will suit more skin tones, possibly those of the more paler persuasion. The fourth lipstick ( Lava Love ) again has a slight coral tinge to it, just a bit more less subtle than Poppy Love, however this colour I believe would be great for the summer. The next three colours are my absolute favourites of the bunch( Scarlet Siren,  Perfect Red &  Cherry Jubilee). These colours scream autumn!! The dark, plummy colour I believe is ...

SMALL LUSH HAUL So I may have wandered into Lush and I might have bought a few things... (tries to pull an innocent face).  Now I don't know if it's just me but every time I pass Lush I just HAVE to go in, and it's never to just window shop... so here is a little mini haul to show you what I bought! So to start off I bought my two regular items, Creamy Candy Bubble Bar & MMMelting Marshmallow Moment B . This wonderful product smells AMAZING..  like   literally it smells good enough to eat. The bath melts do not fizz or make bubbles BUT it does make your skin feel awesome. The oils and scents that it releases definitely help you relax and make your body feel brand new. It has always been one of my favourites since the moment I tried it! This is another favourite Lush product of mine, the creamy candy bar! This beauty fills your bath with wonderfully scented bubbles by simply crumbling it under running warm water...
