Winter Clothes Wishlist | Blogmas | Day Nine
As Winter is here it's time to put my Summer clothes away and bring out my scarfs, wooly jumpers and fluffy coats! So, I started looking about on the internet and in shops for the perfect Winter warmers. I'm loving the dark reds and greys this year, it's definitely those colours I've been reaching out for whenever I get ready! Here is what I've found and fallen in love with!

Winter Lipsticks | Blogmas | Day Eight
Winter is my favourite time of month, purely because I can rock the red and purple lipsticks during the day and not just for nights out! Here are my winter shades that I can't live without! Link on where to buy them are down below!
* My Ted Baker lipstick came as part of a set. I've left a link to the Ted Baker beauty range.
I'd love to know in the comments below what your winter lipsticks recommendations are, so I can hopefully try out new brands and shades!
Here I'm wearing Kate Moss in the shade 107. Definitely my favourite red lipstick I own.

Winter Lipcare | My Must Have Essentials!
I don't know about you but at this time of year my lips get very chapped and dry which causes me to be in a lot of pain! If you're lucky enough to live somewhere hot you might not get this often but for us UK lot it is a daily hassle for us!
My three lip essentials, Baby lips and Vaseline are cheap and simple but do my lips the world of good!
Intense Care (yellow) and Hydrate (blue) are the two baby lips i tend to use as they are just more suited for winter and for damaged lips. My Vaseline was limited edition, it's pink bubbly and tastes a little bit like champagne which i am not complaining about! All Vaseline does do the same job so you can choose which ever one you like! They both sooth the lips and make them feel hydrated in no time!
Baby lips cost me £2.99 and Vaseline costs me £3.49 as it was limited edition, but they usually cost £1.99 from all highstreet stores!
Lastly, Blogmas didn't exactly work! I've been ill and i've been starting work at 4 and 6 in the morning and with being busy on top of that, it got too much! So going to stick to just my 3 days a week blog! Sorry about that!

Three Makeup Favourite's of the Month.
This month I have had three products which have stood out to me. I wanted to be a little more daring and make my dark winter wardrobe a little bit brighter and add that splash of colour by bright eye shadows. These three beauty products are Mac eyeshadow, Cranberry, Mac studio fix powder in NW15 and Sleek Palette, i Divine in Ultra Matte V1.
The Sleek palette is full of bright matte colours ranging from white to electric pink and yellow. These shadows give a great pigmentation, apply easy to the eyes and blend easy. Sleek palette's never fail and once you try them there's not going back! Also there products aren't tested on animals. You can but this exact palette by clicking here.
MAC, Cranberry is talked about so often in the blogging and youtubing world. For months I held off not buying it but temptation gave in and had to try the eye shadow that got talked about so much. Cranberry is a metallic purple it's all that really can describe it. It's blends so well and the pigmentation is incredible, as all MAC products are. It may be a little pricey but you can add this to your own MAC palette and create the palette of your dreams! Click here to pick up your favourite shadow now.
Many people may suffer from oily skin and can't go out and buy any foundation! You'll have to go through so many products and try to find one that wont make you break out and make your face look shiny! I had this problem and going through many many foundations I gave up hope of finding one that would finally stop making me break out. MAC studio fix caught my eye one day, a powder foundation that could solve so many peoples problems. Used this product for two months now and the results are amazing and is finally clearing up my skin. It may be £21.50 which can be pricey for most people but you might need to make that sacrifice for clearer skin. Click here to buy.
What are your winter essentials?

NEW Barry M 'MATTE' Nail Polish
Barry M have recently revealed there new MATTE nail polishes. MATTE is the new trend for AW/13, the colours black, cream and berry also fall into the category. These are cheap and affordable and will make your nails look fantastic and give off that 'grunge' look which is oh so popular at the moment.
The MATTE Barry M Polishes come in 5 different colours at the affordable price of £3.99 from Superdrug and Boots.
They come in the gorgeous colours, Crush (Shown above in photo), Mocha (brown), Vanilla (Nude), Caramel (light brown) and Espresso (black). Apply a base coat and then a second coat to give off the gorgeous finish as shown above! It's very easy to apply and they don't chip easily. Have fun with it, it gives off such a beautiful finish and the different texture compared to other nail polishes will get heads turning!
Tell me what you think! What's your favourite colour?

Baby Lips Review
My most recent purchase are these gorgeous lip balms by Maybelline called 'Baby Lips' which are £2.99 and you can find these in the likes of Superdrug and Boots. They have only recently arrived in the UK and they have hit it big! It literally took me a good few shops to find them in as they are sold out everywhere! There are 6 to collect and the only one i couldn't get my hands on was the Yellow one! But, i did manage to get the rest! I'll name them all for you and then go into a little detail on these must have lip products!
(from left to right)
Pink: 'Pink Punch'
Purple: 'Peach Kiss'
Blue: 'Hydrate'
Green: 'Mint Fresh'
Orange: 'Cherry Me'
( The Yellow one which i don't yet have is called, 'Intense Care').
All these lip balms do work the same for me! They are all moisturising and a easy size to just pick up and go! Each day i'll tend to pick up a different one and try it out! The only three with a flavour to them are, 'Peach kiss' which obviously tastes like peach, 'Mint Fresh' which is very minty, and 'Cherry Me' which is my favourite flavour and i literally just want to eat it! But, the one for me which i take to work with me every day is 'Hydrate' (blue). I work in a place where i need to go into huge freezers and Fridges a lot of the time and my lips chap so quickly due to the coldness, but the hydrate lip balm for me just works a complete treat! It really does do what the name says and hydrates your lips! I notice a difference straight away and can't stop telling people at work about them, hoping they will go out and buy them to! They are definitely one of my must have beauty products for winter!
Which one is your favourite? Let me know!
