Dior Haul
Sunday, 9 September 2012
Hello Lovelies!
A couple of weeks ago I was in Glasgow, and I went to have a look at the Dior counter, because I love their makeup but never actually owned any. I was speaking to one of the girls who works on the counter about how much I love their very famous highlighters, Rose Diamond and Amber Diamond. I was pretty gutted when she told me they were all sold out and weren't getting them back in as they were going to discontinue them, and then re-launch Amber Diamond, possibly under a different name and design - but this means that the time to get your hands on Rose Diamond is limited because once it's gone, it's gone! I hope she's wrong, but, anyways!
I went home and scoured the internet to try and find places where it was still in stock, and at the moment they are still both in stock at John Lewis online and Selfridges online (not sure about in store). I ended up ordering from Selfridges as they had the lipstick I wanted too (John Lewis didn't), so I thought it was a better idea to get them both from the same place.
I decided on Amber Diamond for the highlighter. Even though this is coming back out at some point, I just gravitated towards this one, I was a bit worried that Pink Diamond wouldn't go well with my complexion. But if it gets to next month and I've got a bit of spare money and it's still available somewhere I might get it.

NARS Highlighting Powder - Albatross
Sunday, 19 August 2012
Hello Lovelies!
Now, I'm sure every beauty blogger/makeup fanatic and their dog has heard of NARS Albatross highlighter. And as it has been part of he NARS makeup collection for, like, ever, there will be an abundance of blog posts about it. But, one more cant hurt, right?
This was my first ever "proper" highlighter. Before that I completely stayed away from all forms of highlighting and attempts to look "glowy" as I have greasy skin and was obsessed with looking matte. Obviously I have since realised that glowing and greasy are a different thing, so yay me!

Illamasqua Cream Blush - Lies
Saturday, 7 July 2012
Hello my lovelies!
I bought this a couple of months ago, and I've been loving it! It's from the Illamasqua Cream Blush line, but it's more of a cream highlighter. If you look at it on the Illamasqua website here, you can kind of see that's what it's intended for, as I think it's far too pale and there isn't a genuine colour pay off with it either! As it was a highlighter I wanted I'm happy with this product.
For all photo's I took one with and without flash.
