New things I
like.
Well this
blog was set up to share with you new things that I have been trying.
This week I
have been trying a few new items that I have been loving.
We went to a
younique party this week and tried their lip stain, I was very pleased that the
item did not transfer onto my glass or even my back of the hand test. I have
since tried again and timed it I managed a full 6 hours before you could not
see the stain any more. Including lunch and multiple cups of tea at work. I
went for the colour sleek, this is a reddish burgundy colour which is ideal for
autumn winter. You don’t need to be scared of the blood red colour coming out
of the tube as this offers a tint of a deeper colour to your lips but, not
vampire blood red.
At the same
party I was shown the eyebrow products, however they looked amazing with the results
even the lightest colour was too dark for me. At £30 I didn’t want to just make
do. However the following day in my local Tesco I spotted the Rimmel version of
the fiber gel “brow this way” and Maybelline “brow satin” pencil. They offer
the same effect, in a much better colour for me and less than £10 for the two.
I am a perfume
lover, however I begrudge paying high amounts for work perfume, this week I
spoke to a colleague as she smelled really nice, she was wearing the Suddenly
Madame Glamour. I had not heard of this one, therefore I got on to Google. To
find this was a lidl perfume at £3.99. This has been commented to be a replica
of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle (which I had heard of). I purchased some myself
this week, and have had a number of comments on how nice it smells. Yes I can
admit that it does not have the same staying power as my “usual” perfume,
however I can get through a 8 hour work day just. I have already considered
purchasing more next week when this is on offer at £1.99. Apparently Lidl also
have a range including candles and body mists at some times of the year, I
think I know what is going on my xmas list.
I have
recently purchased myself a new lens for my DSLR camera. I am currently saving
for a new body and lens combo for my wedding photography. However recently a
lens I have been looking at for years was on offer. I decided to treat myself.
I have heard so much about this type of lens and the clarity and definition
this can offer me compared to my normal zoom lens. I also used this lens for a
recent engagement shoot. All I found was I had to turn my brain back on when
working, by moving myself more and thinking about positioning before taking the
shot.
(The lens is
Canon 50mm prime 1.8)
What
have you been loving this week?

Soon
