Clinque chubby stick

Now I never planned to get this product or even researched this! I went to buy a Christmas present from clinque and came out with a chubby stick for myself!



So chubby sticks are coming into the beauty world and there is a good reason why. There are a lot of drugstore brands that support the chubby stick phase! Bourjois is one of my all time favorite brands and they have a little collection of these which are brill!

Anyway I just saw a little collection of these little chubby sticks with a range of different colours so I tried a few and fell in love with this beautiful colour, which is mighty mimosa (13).
The chubby stick comes under lipsticks, it is possible to use this as a lipstick but along side that pro it is a moisturizing lip balm. Just have one application your can feel it giving your lips moisture and softness. At this time of year I feel my lips becoming so dry and some lip balms just don't help at all but this is amazing. It gives you a nice colour but also that lip balm feeling of keeping your lips moist.

Now I know a few of these chubby sticks are more sticky and more lip gloss when applied this one is more like a lip balm when applied.




I went for a natural colour so I can wear it any time anywhere. I love this little stick it is handbag size and light to carry it around. This goes everywhere with me now. This is £17.00 which is expensive since you can get a similar product from the high street. I personally would prefer to spend a little more and get a better quality lip product. I would recommend the bourjois chubby stick as well but I highly recommend the clinque on. It is a top product and the packaging is also very high quality. This chubby stick winds up from the bottom so look after it and you will get all of the product out of it. I know some high street products that you have to either push or sharpen. I personally never buy something if I have to sharpen it mainly because it never sharpens how I want it to.

Overall this is an amazing product and it is well worth the money I love it!

July Faves!

Ahh its nearly august! How quick has this month gone in fact this year. So I am saving up a bit because I having a trip to Leeds in a few days. This month has also been my mams birthday and my boyfriends birthday so I haven't bought that much this month but I still have a few favorites I'd like to 'rave' about.

Mac lipstick in Hue, Topshop brow pencil, Mac paint pot in soft ochre, Benefit theyre real mascara

First of all the MAC lipstick, this is in the colour hue. I love this colour since its like a natural nudey pinky that blends into my lips. It looks so natural which is what I am normally looking for most days. I have bought this twice now I love it so much and it was actually my mam who got me into this colour. So I did pay I think £16.00 pound for this but I do believe the prices have gone up. (oh no) I've wore this so much this month because of the heat I haven't really been wearing much make up so my natural look has been in full swing and this goes so well with it. My topshop brow pencil in the colour vicious circle was bought without reading anything about it and a total wild card. (which I don't do very often) I actually really love the double end which was on of the reasons I bought it. I normally fill in my brows with this when I am either just having a lazy day or going to work and don't want them to be to bold. Its a really handy tool to carry around and it blends so well. This was £6.00 and I would say a great buy and not that expensive. Next up the MAC paint pot in soft ochre, before I bought this I read so many reviews and researched it so much. I didn't know whether I would use it or not but I am glad I did buy it. I don't think I could be without it now. I use this as a primer and it works so well it doesn't crease my eye shadow and it lasts the majority of the day. I do wear this on its own as well if I am again having a natural day, although it probably looks like there isn't anything on my eyes it just gives me that little boost. I would be tempted to get another one of these in a darker colour to play about with, it is defiantly a must have eye product. This was £15.00 so pricey but it will last a long time if you look after it! Finally once again Benefit they're real mascara. I have raved so much about this mascara these past few weeks and it needs it! It is a great product and I love the volume and length it gives to my lashes. It fills them out and it gives them such a nice look to them. Go and check my review out on this product, I would go as far to say this could be one of my holy grail mascaras! It is amazing and one of the best I have tried. I paid around £16.50 on a deal a month back. (Normally £19.50)


I love all of these products and I would recommend them to anyone, although some are a bit pricey it will definitely be worth the buy.
