TAG: 8 Most Worn Things! Summer Edition

Hello guys! A bit of a random post from me today but I am going to do the 8 Most Worn Things Tag! I haven't been tagged by anyone to do this, but I have seen this tag a lot around YouTube recently and thought it would be fun do it myself here!

1) Most worn nail polish:
'Mint Green' By Barry M, I wrote about it in My Top 5 Summer Nail Polishes post.
2 Most worn hair product:
This is a bit of a random one but it is actually just TRESemme's Heat Defence Styling Spray.
3) Most worn bag:
Cath Kidston Day Bag.
4) Most worn shoes:
I got these shoes at Faith in Debenhams a few months ago, I have worn them so much, I just love them!
5) Most worn accessories:
I have worn my Ray-Ban 'Wayfarer' sunglasses loads these past few months, I love them immensely!
6) Most worn clothing item:
This playsuit from River Island, I just love the colours in it and I think it is so summery and fun!
7) Most worn foundation:
Clinique Superbalanced Makeup - I just love this stuff!
8) Most worn blush/bronzer:
I was never a massive blusher or bronzer person, but in these summer months I have been loving Rimmel's Natural Bronzer.

9) Most worn lip product:
'Patisserie' by MAC.
10) Most worn mascara:
This would have to be my Bourjois Volumizer Mascara, it's amazing!
11) Most worn eyeshadow:
My most worn eyeshadow this summer has definitely been this quad from No 7. It is called the 'Smokey Rose Quad.' Unfortunately I got given this quad by No 7 free when I bought one of their mascaras and I don't think it is available to buy :(

Thank you for reading! And I tag all of you reading to do this, if you do this tag leave me a link to your tag in the comments as I would love to read it! xx

How much does your face cost?

After reading Describing Beauty's post on how much does your face cost? I was instantly curious about the cost of my own face, if not a little nervous! I decided to find out anyhow and share it with you all!



Moisturiser: Clinique Superdefence £37
Lip Balm: Blistex Intense Moisturiser £2.59
Primer: No. 7 Colour Calming Primer - £11
Foundation: Clinique Superbalanced £21.50
Concealer: Which (I don't think it has a name?!) £4.99
Powder: Rimmel Clear Complexion £3.99
Eyebrows: Natural Collection Eyeshadow 'Crushed Walut' £1.79

Lipgloss: Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker 'Candy Gloss' £9.00


Total: £122.54 - eek!!


You may have noticed I haven't included blush or bronzer, this is because I only wear these products on special occasions or nights out because I have very red cheeks naturally so I don't feel like I need the extra products in the daytime.

I'd be interested to read your 'how much does my face cost?' posts too! Let me know below if you post one. Thanks for reading!

MAC Patisserie Lipstick.


It may surprise you that I had no MAC products in my make-up bag until just a week or two ago! I was shopping in town with my mum and decided it really was about time I purchased my first MAC product, so that is exactly what I did.
  I knew that I wanted to buy either a lipstick or an eyeshadow, and after having a look at MAC's collections of both of these items I decided I wanted a lipstick, but nothing too bright and exciting. The lady on the counter was very helpful and put a few different colours and formulations onto my lips so I could see what suited me best. In the end I went for a Lustre in the colour Patisserie. I didn't want to go for anything too exciting simply because I knew that I would get a lot more wear out of a more natural colour.

    I really like this lipstick, I know a lot of people are put off buying MAC lipsticks because they are slightly pricey, priced at £13.50, but personally I think they are worth every penny! They aren't at all drying on my lips as a lot of lipsticks are, the colour lasts all day and the colour transfers well onto my lips. I will definitely be going back to MAC in the near future too see what other products they have to offer!
Patisserie by MAC - £13.50
