After finding this incredible video, I knew my next purchase had to have some kind of bronzer in it, so I can have a god at the ol' sculpting hype. I only have one blusher so I thought I'd spread my wings with a pinker one, and who doesn't love a nice shade of red? It was that or plum.. and red usually makes me happier (wrong choice thinking about it, I have 4 red shades and one purple, that I gave away. Ohhh buyers remorse).

More beauty, who knew?
I got paid again today so I felt like splashing out (two whole pounds!) on the 3-for-2 offer Superdrug had on. Since my good dealings with MUA, I headed straight back to the stand to see what other goodies I could scout.

I have one super fancy nail because my friend got my other friend an OPI nail varnish on her trip to America and I wanted to try it out (it's super glittery!) it makes me happy because I feel like I have a mermaid nail. I'm obsessed with mermaids at the moment. I filed them all down to a more managable length since this post, it'll save me getting some terrible rip and my hands needed occupying whilst watching MIC.
Super lovely! I am off to work now, and then to Rosi's for dinner (she's making lasagne and I'm taking garlic bread). Eley and I went to the gym earlier so I'm feeling super pumped about life in general aha. One more essay to submit and I'm almost free! The weather is close today that I've walked around with a constant headache, (it's not water or sleep so I have no other reason to be hurting!)

MUA
I bought a couple of things from MUA (Make Up Academy in Superdrug the other day; two lipsticks and a nail varnish. Each item was £1 (which was the main thing that enticed me to the stand!). I was worried about the quality, but for £1 I felt like it was a risk worth taking.
One of the lipsticks is a lovely deep red that makes me feel very lady like, the other more pinky. And the nail varnish is an incredibly loveeeeeely greyish pink, it's such a gorgeous colour, I am in love with it. The bottle says it's called 'Ameretto Crush'. I also like that the bottle looks like an Essie bottle :) As usual it took about two coats so I was actually quite surprised by the quality. The lipstick, however, is like a coloured balm - it's very slippy and comes off almost immediately, but it does tint your lips. It also smells like vanilla, which is a big no no for me, but I think most others would like it!
The other lipstick hasn't been photographed yet, so I will share if I ever get round to it - I do apologise but the sun is just so lovely I'd rather just sit and bask in it's glory.. yes I did just say that, haha!

(I like that you can actually tell that my eyes are green in this photo! yippee for green eyes!)
/shameful pout, it's that kind of colour. ha
