<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I haven't been doing much nail art at all lately and all because my nails have been HORRID.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I don't know if its the weather or if I am lacking something vital, stress or what but my nails have just not been playing ball. They have been flaking and breaking all over the show and I've been desperate for a fix so i can get my beloved polish collection out!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In steps Butter London's Horse Power Nail Fertiliser. This stuff has been my saviour! I have used for 2 weeks solid now and my nails are almost back to their old selves! The formula contains horsetail (eww) and silica that acts as a strengthener to your talons and all you do is apply a coat every day! I have also heard its a fabulous base coat, which I will be testing out this weekend</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It isn't the cheapest treatment out there but I have literally tried everything and nothing is as good as this Nail Fertiliser.. plus the bottle is well cool.</span></center>

<center>
<br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I never really jumped on the gel liner band wagon when it exploded a year or so ago, I was just so content with liquid liners I just didn't feel the urge to change. However since becoming a Tanya Burr superfan I seem to <strike>want </strike>need everything in her make up bag, and Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Liner was no exception!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am SO glad I decided to take the plunge and purchase it, as it is an amazing little pot of goodness!!! The consistency is absolutely perfect and a dream to work with, it glides onto your lid without being too wet and slippery but also not to dry and clumpy. It dries to a semi matte and is really black, its not messy and it doesn't budge <u>all</u> day.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I must admit I didn't get on with the little brush that is included in the pack, it was to fat and not precise enough so I decided to also treat myself to the ever trusty Real Technique's Fine Liner Brush. This duo is now something I don't dare go without to complete my make up look. I have totally shunned my liquid liners (poor little dears) and always opt for my lovely pot of joy</span></center>

<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />No I won't be posting my fave pair of legs for the week (although that could be kind of fun), I have decided to start posting about my favourite pins on Pinterest!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For those who haven't joined Pinterest yet or may not even know what it is, you need to join immediately You can basically create as many boards as you like to pin different photos, links, videos for inspiration and ideas. I am totally addicted to it and usually spend hours browsing people's boards ranging from food and drink to home decor or fashion.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>

</tbody></table>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was really eager to try the La Roche Posay Effaclar Duo after hearing such amazing things from other bloggers and online reviews. <span style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969); font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Beauty bloggers have been calling this their go to spot cream and it seems to </span>really improve a lot of ladies skin and perfect skin is something I always strive for</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have been using this for around 3 months now and I am just not noticing the dramatic differences that others are! This cream is said to unclog pores, prevent breakouts and clear existing ones quickly whilst also getting rid of dead skin cells and generally making your skin look and feel brighter</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have found Effaclar Duo quite drying on my skin especially if used in the morning under make up, which has helped with clearing up those yucky blemishes a little swifter but dry isn't a good look, and I don't think it has prevented breakouts</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am one to come back to products after not enjoying them first time round so for now I'm going to pack this one away in my stash, but ,when I will dip back into it in the future. If you have blemish prone skin then I would definitely try this as so many people have had great results, it just may not work for everyone </span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Kent-Back-Combing-Brush_1270884/" target="_blank">Back comb Brush</a> £8.99 from Boots (but Primark do one for £1!!) - Now we all know how bad vigorous back combing of your hair can be so I have always been one to avoid doing it, yet I crave the volume and lift that it provides. Step in the back comb brush!! This little wonder allows you to gently tease your hair and create that much needed volume on your crown! The end of the brush is pointy as well which is fab for sectioning areas off. I cannot get enough of this brush right now</span></center>

Its THE best method of application for liquid foundation EVER! I usually get a blob of foundation on the back of hand, dip my brush in and buff into my skin in small circular motions and I am left with the most natural, non cakey look. I now own a good few Samantha Chapman Real Techniques brushes but this one is by far my fave. It also washes up so nicely meaning I very much doubt it will need replacing any time soon.

It gives your hair texture in seconds that doesn't dry out your locks at all but gives it that salty "just been for a dip in the sea" look, with minimal effort.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Its also amazing for adding volume when your hair is up or down</span></center>
<center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I like to use a few spritz of mine on damp hair and just scrunch it in and rough dry to create tousled waves, or I will use it in my roots and back comb slightly which works really well for adding volume.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You can also use this in dry hair and as I wear my hair in a topknot at least 3 times a week I will spray a little of the salt spray in my ponytail to create a bigger, fuller bun</span></center>

However I decided to give it a whirl and my my what a lovelyyyyy tea it is!!! I raced down to my local Tesco straight away and purchased a pack of 15 so I could have one every morning! I went for the Super Berry flavour which is a mix of hisbiscus, elderberries, currants, blackcurrants, cranberries and blueberries, and it is YUM as well as being good for you! It has slowly started to replacement my morning cup of caffeinated tea which is a huge step for me! I am looking forward to trying the other flavours that Teapigs have to offer</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This might be really weird but I thoroughly enjoy cleaning my make up brushes. Don't get me wrong I don't do it nearly enough (I know you should really wash them after every use if possible but who on earth has the time to do that?!) but when I do get the chance to wash them I find it kind of therapeutic!?</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyhowwww... So I have been through copious amounts of MAC's stupidly expensive brush cleaner in the past and I've tried a slightly cheaper version from EBay before, but then I came across a comment on Pinterest which advised that baby shampoo was by far the best product to clean your make up brushes with</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So my 11p beauty secret is this little bad boy from my local Morrison's supermarket!!! You can find cheap baby shampoo in every single supermarket or drugstore and it really works a treat</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">To clean my brushes I run my tap at a lukewarm temperature and squirt a generous amount of baby shampoo into my hand. I then take my dirty make up brush and swirl it around in the shampoo so its completely coated and simply rinse it under the water. I keep repeating this until the water runs completely clear and my brushes don't have any residue from the shampoo left on them.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I will then gently squeeze excess water from them, reshape them if needed and leave them to dry on a towel near an open window. Voila, my brushes are as good as new in no time and I feel some what satisfied!</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The product itself is pretty massive for a blusher which can be a little daunting and off-putting, but ever since first use of Stereo Rose I have been in love. Its a very pretty coral-pink with gold flecks running through it and it just gives you such a radiant glow without being to shimmery. You do have to use it sparingly though as its quite pigmented and you will look completely overdone!! Like all mineralized skinfinish's it blends SO well, will never ever go patchy and is really long wearing</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Its Monday YAAAAY - said no one ever!</span></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Meh. Monday is rubbish huh, but maybe my post today will help cheer you up a little and wash away those naughty start of the week blues.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I had some amazing feedback on my previous post of <a href="http://www.lippylucie.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/cheap-but-chic-cheaper-beauty.html" target="_blank">Cheaper Beauty Alternatives</a> (thanks guys!!) so I decided to do a second post of even more bargain buys!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I hope you enjoy..</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />This is my first ever empties post!!! I am actually treating this as a massive achievement as I am terrible for finishing products. I fall in love with things so easily and obviously being a beauty blogger I try to sample as much stuff as possible and things get left behind (sorry lovely products!)</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have been a really really good girl recently and tried my absolute best to use up what I've got completely, before moving onto something new. Here is what I have demolished...</span></center>
<center>
</center>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<center>
</center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://uk.lizearle.com/lp-face-cleansers?gclid=CN3I0JXpo7UCFYpY3godmQQAyg" target="_blank">Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser</a>: oh Liz, I love you. If you haven't tried this yet you need to get yourself a bottle, and pronto. This green bottle of loveliness has been my holy grail cleanser for the last few months and I am counting down the days until payday so I can repurchase her. However The Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser by Soap & Glory has been getting me through, so I would highly recommend that as a cheaper alternative</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Aussie-Miracle-Moist-Conditioner_8843/" target="_blank">Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner</a>: this is actually something I have been using for around 10 years now! I do dabble in other hair care brands but I always come back to my trusty and lush smelling Aussie. The miracle moist keeps my hair super hydrated, really shiny and the scent lasts all day! I also find that I don't need to wash my hair as often after using this. Another massive plus is that its under a fiver!! Will be repurchasing pronto.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.lookinggoodguy.com/dermalogica-daily-microfoliant-75g.html?gclid=CPry2_Hno7UCFY7MtAodJToA5g" target="_blank">Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant</a>: I can see why this product has won awards, its great! The powder, made up of Papain, Salicylic Acid and Rice Enzymes, is activated with water and works to smooth the skin and accelerate cell renewal. I received mine as a sample in a beauty box subscription and I thoroughly enjoyed using it instead of those harsh grainy exfoliants that leave your skin red raw and stripped of life! I don't think I will be purchasing this just though though as the full size is a whopping £27.95 and I'm not sure if it is really worth that price tag.</span></center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.bobbibrown.co.uk/product/2335/15927/Makeup/Face/Correctors-Concealers/Creamy-Concealer/Award-Winner/index.tmpl" target="_blank">Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer</a>: When I bought this I was head of over heels for it, nothing I had used had come close and it really concealed everything so well. Then suddenly I decided it was too thick and I didn't love it so much anymore. I think the reason was I was using much lighter foundations and my skin has been quite behaved, so thick concealer wasn't necessary any more I also discovered Maybellines Dream Lumi concealer which is my new addiction. Bobbi you have been so good to me but I won't be repurchasing you right now.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://uk.spacenk.com/Just-Skin-Tinted-Moisturiser/MUK200001587,en_GB,pd.html" target="_blank">Chantecaille Just Skin Tinted Moisturiser</a>: I have really been embracing the "no make-up make-up look" for a while now and I have not stopped using my Just Skin. This is by far the best tinted moisturiser I have ever used and I am devastated that I have finally ran out! This got me through a summer, autumn and winter and I used my last little blob a few days ago *cries*. Just Skin leaves you looking absolutely glowing and dewy whilst giving you remarkable coverage but still being really light and breathable. The only thing I hate about this is the price - £57 is extortionate for an item of make-up I don't care what anyone says its a ridiculous price tag! For that reason I simply can't repurchase it right now, however much I want to, but I've decided it's a chance for me to try out some different foundations and hopefully end my quest to find a dupe for this amazing product!!! It's farewell for now Chantecaille </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"></span> </center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Bioderma Crealine: Bioderma is probably my most used product of all time. I use it every single day without fail to remove eye make-up cleanse or to simply freshen up. I am so so glad I found micellar waters in 2012 as they have changed the way I treat my skin and make-up wipes/foaming face washes have become a thing of the past. Its one of the only cleansers that doesn't leave my skin red and patchy its so gentle, but it removes every last trace of make-up. Its really difficult to get hold of for a reasonable price in the UK, I stocked up when I was in Paris and got 2 bottles for about £12 which is a bargain! I know there are sellers on Amazon and Ebay but I personally wouldn't recommend getting this from there. I've heard that Bioderma will soon be available in Boots which would be AMAZING, but I hope it comes with a friendly price tag.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So there are my empties! I actually really enjoyed using up some products for a change and I will be attempting to stick to this new rule if mine in future! Especially as it now means I can go out and buy more, he he!!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Have you done an empties post I can have a read of???</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have something brand new and exciting to tell you about today! So BB creams were massive in 2012, literally every cosmetic brand brought out their own version.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Well this year is the year of the CC cream, and L'Oreal is releasing their version in 2013! </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The L'Oreal Nude Magique CC Cream*</span></center>
<center>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So what is CC cream I hear you ask!? Well CC stands for Colour Correction which is used for evening out skin tone and tone correcting. L'Oreal's version contains all the benefits of BB creams but with this added CC magic!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The aim of a CC cream is to help neutralise the appearance of redness, dullness or tired looking skin and L'Oreal have created 3 different creams, one for each of these problems. I chose the Anti-Dullness CC cream as I find my skin lacks radiance and often needs a boost to look glowing and lovely!</span></center>

<br /></div>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have been testing this out all week and I cannot praise it enough!! </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">At first I was like "WOAH" as the liquid is thin, runny and purple!! I wasn't expencting good things at all.. But when applied it transforms into a lovely smooth foundation that adapts to the colour of your skin like magic! (Or should I say "magique"!!) It literally mimicks your skin tone and looks and feels like bare skin</span></center>
<center>
</center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /> </span><br />
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It feels SO light and silky like a moisturiser, and is a real joy to apply. Once on the skin it literally feels like I don't have foundation on at all but</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> gives a good and buildable coverage - more than than most BB creams would</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I think this will be perfect for summer/holiday months where I want a little something on my face but nothing too heavy, it also contains SPF 12!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I wouldn't say that this is dewy but it does give a really radiant glow. I find my CC cream looks best used with a touch of concealer on any blemishes and a swipe of powder!</span></center>

<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My sister and I are really close, she is my <u>BFF</u>!! She </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">has just bought a beautiful new house and she also runs her own business meaning purchasing beauty and cosmetics has had to take a back seat. So for her birthday I decided to make her a beauty box!! I basically used an old Glossy box and filled it with a whole new make-up collection of drug store goodies!</span></center>
<center>
</center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My sisters beauty box includes:</span></center>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />Birchbox is here! I love new things, I get bored pretty easily so Jolie Box changing to Birch Box was a welcome change for me! I was super excited when a highlight pink box arrived on my desk last week, I literally ripped it open in eager anticipation!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi09OsQVh9jVQi9jbU5-3KrgtJ-4UAMhzi9zmPPWm3jT5HMmJnNbln-DAgeeExPqQYQUgmj77vCxv7dsTn12bEfEb3qi3GkGY1wzFiRJLZiP3gsyEXMFQ1Zzj-ITfxJ4SLai2aBciTfH2Ro/s1600/Fresh_Sugar_rose_lip_treatment.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="335" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi09OsQVh9jVQi9jbU5-3KrgtJ-4UAMhzi9zmPPWm3jT5HMmJnNbln-DAgeeExPqQYQUgmj77vCxv7dsTn12bEfEb3qi3GkGY1wzFiRJLZiP3gsyEXMFQ1Zzj-ITfxJ4SLai2aBciTfH2Ro/s400/Fresh_Sugar_rose_lip_treatment.JPG" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So as usual I'm not going to jump in and review every product as I won't try them all right away.. but one thing I did immediately use upon opening was the Fresh Sugar Rose Lip Treatment</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">This tinted lip balm is totally cute! I am in love with the packaging, pink, pretty and teeny tiny, perfect for my handbag</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The treatment contains blackcurrant oil, antioxidant grape seed and vitamins A, C and E which explains why is SO hydrating and yummy! </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The balm also contains SPF 15 to shield your sensitive lips from sun damage.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
As soon as I touched this to my lips I knew I was going to adore it. The colour is perfect for me, just a subtle hint of coral red to enhance your lips and the texture is so so smooth. My usually dry lips felt instantly moisturised</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
Fresh Sugar Rosé Lip Treatment is VERY pricey for a lip balm at £25 but I am a billion percent repurchasing this when my sample runs out as I totally love it!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">
Have you tried your Fresh Sugar Rosé Lip Treatment yet??</span></center>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">January is a killer for everyone! You're totally strapped for cash after blowing it all on Xmas presents and probably alcohol over NYE and payday is weeks away. I don't know about you guys but I tend to hunt for bargains and go for cheaper alternatives where I can to make my pennies last me as long as possible!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So here is my list of alternative's to your usual beauty products that you could purchase if your budget won't stretch to the hefty price tags on a lot of cosmetics out there today</span></center>

<br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you are a regular reader of my blog you'll know I love to embellish things! My nails are definitely no exception and these were my nails this weekend! I think studs looks best on black or nude shade nails. Here is how I achieved this subtle but bang on trend studded nail look</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f6b26b;">1.</span> Prep your nails (cuticles, shape, buff, base coat)</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">2.</span> Paint 2 coats of your chosen base colour, mine is Models Own in "Peach Sherbet"</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #e06666;">3.</span> Make sure your colour is completely dry before moving onto the next step</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f6b26b;">4.</span> Dip the end of a small dotting tool into a blob of clear polish - I used Seche Vite Top Coat - and dot onto your nail where you want your first stud to be. It is best to start in the middle and work outwards to get them evenly spaced</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">5. </span> Using the same end of the dotting tool, which should be a little tacky from your clear polish pick up a gold bead and place it on your nail</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #e06666;">6.</span> Continue to do this all over your nail/nails and wait as long as possible to let the studs dry onto the nail firmly</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #f6b26b;">7.</span> Finish with a very light coat of clear polish to really seal your studs in place and give extra shine to the whole look</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Have you tried studded nails?</span><br /><img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img194/562/sigbc.png" /></center>

<br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Korres Lip Butters were a blogger favourite in 2012 and I loved them as much as everyone else but for some reason never blogged about them!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The only shade I have tried and keep repurchasing is Jasmine, a light nude beige toned pink, which is a really wearable colour perfect for everyday use</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The formula of Korres Lip Butter is beautiful!! Its incredibly moisturising feels smooth and not sticky and looks really lovely on your lips! Just a sheen hint of colour here but that's what I like most about it most I think! You can also wear a lipstick underneath and use this Jasmine shade on top to make your own unique shade!</span></center>

<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I suffer from dry lips all the time and I don't expect miracles with lip butters and balms as its just my skin type in that area but this 100% helps my situation and does soften the usually dry skin on my lips all day</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It also smells so yummy! As you know I love sweet sickly scents and this is definitely one of those! It also tastes great which is important seeing as you tend to end up eating lip products slightly don't you!</span></center>

This stuff smells divine!! If you love sickly sweet smells – think pancakes,
syrup and milkshakes – you will LOVE this body butter! The scent stays on your skin all day and the
butter formula sinks into skin instantly leaving you hydrated not sticky. Its not the cheapest moisturiser but the pot
is huge and will last you a good long while even when applying every day. An absolute must for dry winter skin<o:p></o:p></span></div>

beloved Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer and I am so glad I did!! A total dupe for YSL Touche Eclat this is a
really creamy, medium coverage concealer that is great on blemishes and
fantastic under the eyes. What a bargain

for less coverage on my skin this winter which is totally out of the norm for
me. I’ve had good skin recently with no
need for heavy products at all so a blob of this all over has been
perfect. I cannot praise Chantecaille’s
Just Skin enough it is the best tinted moisturiser I have ever come across. It seems to have a light coverage whilst
still cancelling out any red patches and making my skin radiant and
glowing. I have almost ran out and I am
so upset as this stuff is not cheap but I will 100% be repurchasing it on
payday<o:p></o:p></span></div>

coming soon) and it’s the nicest smelling hand cream I have used in a long
time! Its very citrus’y and refreshing
and the cream is super hydrating leaving my hands lovely and soft. The only thing is this is quite a greasy one
so you need some “hands free” after using to let it slowly sink in but it’s really
lovely so is def a December Fave<o:p></o:p></span></div>

thick, the polish is opaque after 1 coat and the consistency and finish is very

other than translucent powder but I have found that that the Studio Fix Powder really
sets my foundation perfectly and gives just a slight colour enhancement to my
skin. It’s so natural looking and will
leave you looking flawless. It also doesn’t
dry out my skin or wear off during the day. This has become a staple in my makeup bag<o:p></o:p></span></div>

done a review of this <a href="http://lippylucie.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/glossybox-dec-12-milkshake-conditioning.html" target="_blank">here</a>, but at the time of that review I didn't realise how
much I actually love this product! I
only really noticed when I didn't use this for a few days and my hair just didn't feel the same, it felt dry and tangled and a little brittle. It was only when I used this again that I
realised this stuff hydrates my hair SO much!
It feels really soft and is very easy to run a brush through after using
and it smells lovely! (I have a thing for smells in these favourites!!) I said in my previous review I wouldn't repurchase
this due to the price tag but I have now changed my mind and will be
repurchasing this again and again because its super-duper and worth every
penny!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<center>
<br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A new year means time to make some resolutions, plans and more memories! I cannot believe its 2013, I remember celebrating the millennium in my Adidas poppers and hair slicked back in a ponytail!! Where has the time gone...</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So here are some things I would like to achieve in twenty 13:</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Spring Clean</b></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I love to keep things, it terrifies me to throw things away in case I might need that hideous halter neck top "in case it comes back in fashion" !! I've just ordered loads of vacuum pack bags to have a proper good clear out and organise the things I do really need to keep! I shall be ruthless </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Write things down</b></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I have an amazing little book called One A Day The 5 Year Memory Book which I will dedicate 2 minutes to everyday to write a memory, comment or something I have learnt. I cannot wait to fill it up and look back at what I have written in five years time! I have a rubbish memory too so it will be nice to record a few moments in life that I would otherwise forget</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Be More Confident</b></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm not shy and I am generally really outgoing but I lack a lot of self confidence. I constantly doubt abilities and never think I as good or as clever as others and this is something I would really like to change. </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Become A Vlogger</b></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is something I have been wanting to try for sooooo long but I am super scared to give it a go!!! I am addicted to watching other vloggers fabulous videos and I know I can make some videos just as good myself, but something is stopping me from taking the plunge!! I absolutely love blogging and I will definitely expand my blog by starting a YouTube channel this year.. I WILL!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>Save money</b></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is my biggest resolution this year! My lovely boyfriend and I are determined to buy our own little house and we all know how much that costs these days so its save save save!! I won't be restricting myself by cutting back on every single luxury or outing but I will definitely be buying less clothes and food and things that I really waste my money on! As long as life is still fun and I'm not missing out then I am happy :-)</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">What are your New Years resolutions? </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The palette does come with a sponge applicator which I would never use for applying eyeshadow but they do come in VERY handy for nail art when using the sponge technique, so I am pleased I have another one of those!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These shadows aren't quite as pigmented as the Naked palette shadows but they are still lovely to apply, and teamed with Urban Decays Eyeshadow Primer Potion it stays put without touch ups all day/night</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I can't see myself using this palette up at all quickly but I would definitely repurchase it when I do run out, for a mere £7.99 <a href="http://www.sleekmakeup.com/eyes/shadows/i-divine" target="_blank">here </a>its an absolute steal!</span></center>
<center>

<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The December edition of Glossybox was a fabulous one so I will be doing mini reviews on each product as I use them!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The first product I have been trying out is MilkShake's Conditioning Whipped Cream which is a leave in conditioner for all hair types to vitalise and nourish your hair</span></center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<center>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEqcvRNmeX9sdCGmy3ii1aSIOuc_d6anUfKFf7jvzBI_UJ-4FzVNd48Gysbxr-GIe6u5kkCupqXqJDMZrExuTXIaOAgmA6akeT4sohfaA9xzYHzLjGqkN13GInkTMkamTBOZykyiQxNnpN/s1600/milkshake.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEqcvRNmeX9sdCGmy3ii1aSIOuc_d6anUfKFf7jvzBI_UJ-4FzVNd48Gysbxr-GIe6u5kkCupqXqJDMZrExuTXIaOAgmA6akeT4sohfaA9xzYHzLjGqkN13GInkTMkamTBOZykyiQxNnpN/s400/milkshake.JPG" width="340" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've been using this for the last few days and I think it is fantastic!! You shake it up and comb a big blob of it through damp locks (just like a mousse) It literally disappears into your hair with no residue and you are left with a yummy vanilla milkshake smelling bar barnet!!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My hair feel SO soft and really nourished after using this stuff and the scent lasts all day long!</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I really like using leave in conditioners but I am usually wary of product build up and greasiness but Milkshake's version does neither of those.</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">MilkShake Conditioning Whipped Cream costs £11.69 <a href="http://www.specialisthairsupplies.co.uk/" target="_blank">here</a> which I think is pretty pricey for a hair product so I'm not 100% sure I will purchase it again.. but then it really is a fab product so if I fancy treating myself then this will be top of my list</span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Have you tried the MilkShake Conditioning Whipped Cream or any other great leave in conditioners?</span></center>
