Glossy box June

Hi there,
This is going to be one of those posts with more pictures and less of my scribbles! I recently got this glossybox and this is my second one so far. To be honest not so impressed on the overall I am still waiting for a box that would completely take my breathe away. Well not really completely. This box contains a Glossybox beauty brush, a Yves Rocher ultra volume mascara,Summer warmth BM beauty, Agent Provocateur perfume samples and Vichy foundation cream stick. Out of all these, I have only used the mascara which is one of the best I have used. I don't have very long eyelashes and this mascara has done wonders for me and really compliments my eyelashes. I have yet to try out the rest but will let you know soon. Right I am off now to the Bristol zoo, random I know but it's such a nice day and it can't be wasted indoors. So caio xxx

The One Stop

Burberry makeup was exclusive to Harrods until recently with John Lewis' flagship store being a new stockist. I first found out they'd be in store a while ago whilst certain areas of the beauty department were being refurbished and I spotted their campaign.  I was ecstatic! Oxford Street is my shopping place and I hear Victoria's Secret is coming to town? No idea when. Anyway, the exam period helped me refrain myself from splurging and I am still quite busy with things now. On my short visit there last week I had a brief look around and was tempted to buy an eye shadow I've been lusting over. It looked very similar to something I already have so ended up not buying it. But you never know might go next time and pick it up!

 Speaking of eye shadows I'm doing my friend's cousin's makeup tomorrow for a party. As selfish as it sounds, I'm quite confident when it comes to applying my own makeup but on others I'm hesitant. You have different facial features and I'd be worried about what the person thought. We shall see how it goes. I'm also currently in the midst of writing several articles for something quite exciting. I don't quite exactly know where it'll lead to. I'm doing it with the hope that it will improve my writing skills and I'll take away something valuable from it. Now off for a cuppa! After burning (literally) in the sun yesterday I don't mind today's wet weather.

The One that Got Away

Time is really becoming an issue for me. So instead of doing 3 individual posts full of pictures of my top 3 inspirations I've put up one look for each of them. It doesn't necessarily sum up their different looks and styles but is rather a representation for the kind of looks they go for.  A little bird told me Sonam Kapoor might be heading to London this September for a fashion show by a new and upcoming designer. I've been begging my friend to see if she can get me tickets or if I don't get in for her to take pictures with her!
