Body Shop Review & Clothes Shopping

BodyShop Shimmer Cubes - Chocolate Box
So I've never felt I'm very good with eye shadows, they've always seemed a bit of an enigma to me~ with using the right brushes, matching colors and blending..
Recently I went to a girl friend's Bodyshop party, this one was for their skincare range but they also do make-up parties, (which we both cannot wait to arrange for!)


The photos don't do the colors justice & look alot better on my eyes

Colors: I think my favourite is the Honeycomb, I love using it on the center of my eyelids for the main color! Marshmallow is a lovely highlight and Dark Chocolate is great for making smokey eyes
All colours match perfectly and you can mix & match for many different looks, they even gave me free make-up leaflets teaching you how to apply & blend!

Price: £16 ~ £10/10g I thought it was a little much even though the cubes are very deep!
This is why I'm a member of Bodyshop, in the month of your birthday you receive £5 to spend in store so long as you have your member card. I used my Bodyshop Birthday Gift and only paid £11!


Bodyshop Tea Tree Skin Cleansing Foam

I find it reduces shine & rids my skin of all oil & dirt, its a amazing daily wash for me as it doesn't sting like most other tea tree product. You just pump it once & you get alot of foam in your palm nice & easy! then smooth it over your face. It leaves your skin feeling very clean & fresh but never dry!

Price: £5 ~ £3.33/100ml I think the price is okay because the cleanser lasts a very long time, as it pumps out into a foam and you need only a little, for me this works better than any other cleanser and it doesn't sting so I personally £5 is an acceptable price.





Clothes!

I was told H&M were having a sale on jeans, for only £7 a pair but when I finally went the price had dropped to £4! I've had my eye on these jeans, they are so cute & pretty, I'm quite picky when it comes to trousers as they are to plain and make me feel very un-feminine :/
Pretty pink leopard print!
  Oops they got creased in the bag!

Rosie's Birthday! Eating Cakes & Shopping!

 My best friend's from college, Heather, Rosie & me! We went to Patisserie Valerie for tea & cake, it was so elegant & decorated in Art Nouveau!! 


 Wedding cakes

  I spy macaroons in the back of the display :P


All the beautiful fruit cakes & tarts *3*

I adore Art Nouveau paintings, I wish I could own the one on the right!
You can't see over the brightness, but the lamps are like mini crystal chandeliers so cuuute..


My cake choice, fresh strawberries & cream gateux!
It was the lightest fluffiest sponge I've ever had & the strawberries were so big & juicy *__*

Yay cake & coffee time!

Cake Olympics: Keep your cake standing upright for longest whilest eating the slice!

I should have won but Rosie hit the table to make mine fall over, sabotage meant instant disqualification. Heathers was using a profiterole to hold her slice up, so that was instant disqualification too >,>


Shopping!
Shopping in for little black dresses ^^
I really wanted this dress, even tho it showed off my arms, I think it was only £16, but I might wait for it to go on sale as I have many dresses already.. :>

Sassy photobomber in the changing rooms!


Relaxing on the chaise lounge..Shoe shopping is hard!
I'd love my own chaise lounge for my room
