My everyday eye make up.

My everyday eye look is something that's very easy to do but super effective. On an everyday basis such as for uni I don't really bother with eyeshadow as I usually get up slightly to late and I prefer eyeshadow for night anyway. But if I want a subtle day time look I've been reaching for my Fleur De Force eyeshadow quad I've got the pinkyer one of the two available quads and I adore it. Especially the first colour of the quad which is a ballet slippers kind of colour which is super sweet and helps make your eye colour pop without being to strong. 
The first thing I reach for in a morning is concealer. It's just a instant wake up, the one I've been reaching for more and more recently is the Seventeen Stay time Concealer in extra fair which is like a little slice of heaven for me. To be able to find an amazing concealer that stays on and is pale enough for me but is also brightening was an absolute blessing and I could of cried in the middle of boots when I found it! But the coverage and lasting power are incredible and the fact they do extra pale was the icing on the cake. 
Next up we have eyeliner, now I'm a liquid eyeliner lover and my go to has always been and will always be the Rimmel glam eyes it stays on all day and is super black it's brilliant and doesn't break the bank. 
The other eyeliner I love to use is the Maybelline Big Eyes in Nude/black. I don't go a day without have a nude liner in my waterline it helps the eyes pop, look wider and more awake without being a super harsh like a white liner. This is the best nude liner I've used and I recommend it to everyone. 
Lastly the finishing factor is my mascara. My mascara of choice at the moment is Maybelline Lash Sensational I'm on my second tube of this little beauty and have bought my third ready. I honestly don't think I could be without it anymore it's the best mascara I've ever used my eyes look wider and it gives so much volume and length. It's perfect for that doll eyed look. Don't hesitate with this one just buy it. I also adore the lilac coloured packaging on this product. 

Let me know your go to products for your eyes or anything you think I should try.
Lots of love

Don't look at me facemask.

I've fallen head over heels in love with wait for it Don't look at me, wanted my Damien moment there. (Cue beautiful from Xtina there.) But this facemask is a thing of complete and utter beauty, granted when it's on you'll be blue dabadedabadie. It's full of murumuru butter and leaves your skin feeling silky soft and carries on working its magic after you've taken the mask off. There's  also lemon to tone the skin and neroli to brighten. My skin has never ever looked as good as it does since I've been using this little beauty and I don't think I'll ever stray away. 

You'll need to leave it for a good half an hour or at least until it's completely dry to get the complete benefits of this beauty so it's a very indulgent product so if you want a good in bath mask here's your treat. The first time I ever used it I only kept it on for ten minutes or so and I felt it didn't do a lot but the second time I tried it that was it was the best thing since sliced bread.  It's also very scrubby so gives you a bit of exfoliation too. I remove my mask with a warm damp flannel as it helps with the scrub. My skin looks and feels so much fresher and brighter when I've used this. With it being a fresh mask it lasts for 3 weeks at the price of £6.50. I got 4 full face masks out of one pot which I thought was pretty good going. 
I'm going back tomorrow to purchase another pot as I need some more in my life right now. 
Let me know if you've tried it if not you really should!

Skinnydip Simpsons Shake.

So if there's one thing I really love its novelty bags, they just give that pop of fun to every outfit. They're also a brilliant conversation starter. One of the best brands for these bags and probably my favourite is Skinnydip I really adore this brand, I've got quite a few of their bags and phonecases my current phone case being a chubby unicorn one I mean who doesn't love chubby unicorns? So imagine my absolute joy when I realised they were pairing up with my favourite cartoon The Simpsons. 
I couldn't not pick something up from the line (I could of gotten all of it.) I bought the Krusty Shake bag because who doesn't want a pink sparkly bag shaped like a cup. The bag itself is really quite spacious and only cost me £24 ( thank you 25% off student discount) it's such a cute, quirky and statement piece I can't wait to style it with my outfits. It has a gorgeous gold cross body strap and the cutest straw feature. I'm beyond excited to use this little beauty.  Skinnydip always do amazing quality products and are defiantly the go to brand for any novelty bag lovers. They're super quick with their postage all in all I love this brand and I love this bag.
 Lots of love

Berry lips Bandwagon.

I've been gone for a little bit I've been preparing for uni and so on, so I'm so sorry guys. But whilst I've been gone I've jumped on a very big bandwagon it's the Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 107. This is a very dark berry shade it's a red based berry shade though, now we all know that I'm a pasty pants so I've always shyed away from bold lips because it's something I didn't think would suit me. But as I stood in Superdrug staring intensely as this berry shade lipstick something came over me and just said buy it Leanne buy it now! So whatever that was I caved in and brought it but I was so glad I did, the first time I saw the colour was so queen Zoella on her it looked simply stunning. At £5.49 it wasn't an overly expensive gamble. As I've said before on my blog I adore the Kate Moss lipstick in 38 the formulation of them sits so well and they're extremely pigmented. However 107 is a matte shade but doesn't feel at all dry on the lips which is always a big worry for me as I have super dry lips. With being. Matte shade it's also super long wearing as it wears it gets more purpley when it's at its reddest it's my Snow White shade I adore it and it's defaintly going to be my autumn go to lipstick.
I promise I'll be back on my blog plan starting today pinky promise. Let me know of any lipsticks you think I should try.
Lots of love
