New Year

Happy New Year!

I cannot believe it's 2012! There is so much to look forward to this year - the Olympic's coming to London, my graduation, getting healthy and everything inbetween. As much as the promise of a new year excites me, I always find January and February really depressing. I think its cause its cold, dark and there's nothing really to look forward too ... I wish my birthday was in February ..

Christmas this year was amazing! I got lots of lovely things :)
In the spirit of this blog I shall list some makeup and beauty inspired things

    YSL Beauty Icon Gift Set - Gift Sets
  •  
  • YSL Beauty Icon Gift Set: I LOVE YSL products ... especially the  Touche Eclat (colour 01). I know this product is a highlighter but I think it works great as a concealer! The mascara is very good too ... although it is a little bit more expensive I would really recommend it as it makes my lashes really think and black. I haven't yet used the Top Secrets Skincare ... I have been using the LOreal Studio Secrets primer religiously for about 4 months now so I will have to use the YSL one soonish ... I will let you know what I think of it. 
  • Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh Perfume:  I smelt this a while ago and fell in love. I hate musky perfumes and so this one is perfect as it smells lovely and fresh and clean! I was lucky enough to receive the gift set which came with a body lotion and the cutest miniature perfume that I can keep in my bag! <3 
  • Estee Lauder Double Wear Light Foundation (Colour 2): I have been using this foundation for about 4 months now and I find it really good. Its not my perfect foundation as I find the coverage a bit ... lumpy and if you have slightly dry skin it does NOT like it at all! The coverage is good though if you can apply it perfectly and it will stay on my skin a lot longer than most foundations which is great. 
All in all Christmas was great :) although I really feel like I have eaten too much ... but I guess that's what Christmas is all about!
