Wear It Pink In October - Lily Lolo Supports Breast Cancer Campaign


In October 2009 Lily Lolo mineral cosmetics will pledge their support to breast cancer research by donating profits to Wear it Pink; the charity that exists to fund world-class research to improve breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. The whole of October is Wear it Pink month, the official time of year that we get together to raise the awareness of breast cancer. To support the work of the life-changing organisation, Lily Lolo will give profit from web sales of some of the best selling shades to the charity, for the whole month. For every Bubblegum Pink lipgloss that is sold Lily Lolo will donate £1, as well as another £1 for every purchase of Ooh La La and Candy Girl blush, and 50p from every purchase of eye colours Pink Champagne and GoldenPink. Just think of the possibilities - Did you know that just £2 can buy 40 microscope slides and £50 can buy two weeks’ worth of pipettes?! It’s time to pledge your support and spend October in the prettiest of pink shades, supporting a fantastic charity as you go. Shades are all available online at www.lilylolo.co.uk. Lipgloss £8, Blush £7, Eye colours £5. A full list of natural ingredients is available online.

Intelligent Make Up!! - Myface Cosmetics


Myface Cosmetics has a revolutionary approach to their line where everything is arranged in a simple straight forward order to suit each skin tone, so whether you're Fair, Medium or Medium Dark you can find the perfect colours to suit your skin tone whether it be your foundation, your lips or cheeks, this is the fool proof way to getting it right every time! Just simply look through the category you fall under & choose the tones you like, you can be guaranteed they'll suit, so no more wasting cash on products that don't look right once you try them on at home!
Also available in the range is the 'Eyetouch' collection including mascara, eye pencils as well as eye shadow trios, there are nine trios of three complementing colours to enhance all eyes, five of the trios include blingtones, which are like sparkling gems for the eyes!



I tried out two "Purple Haze' & Midnight Hour', both are excellent, the purple being my personal favourite, the colours blend beautifully together & the soft purple shimmer shade sits perfectly on the lids adding a little extra zing to the over all look! All shades within each palate are perfect for using in one complimenting look together & can create an intense smokey effect for night as well as a soft wash of colour suitable for day time as well (£9.78 Each).

The Myface range was created in collaboration with one of the world's leading make-up artists, Charlotte Tilbury, who has earned iconic status within the industry, working with top designers throughout the world to create cutting edge looks for their fashion shows as well as their ad campaigns to the front cover of Vogue as well. She has an impressive list of celebrity clientele who all depend on her to give them their red carpet glamour including Jennifer Lopez, Kate Moss, Gywneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, Sarah Jessica Parker & Gwen Stefani to name just a few!!! Charlotte has used the same approach to make up that Myface applies to their collections, so you can be sure when choosing your colours within the range that you have the seal of approval from the world's leading make-up artist!

Sex And The City Sequel Underway!!


Sex And The City is back with a bang, the new sequel began shooting yesterday in New York & the buzz is only just beginning on what Carrie & her girl's have been up to since May 2008! Due out in May 2010 we'll have 2 years of gossip, conquests & fashion trends to catch up on, also a few past fashion faux pas from the 80's by the looks of it.....!!!
Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted being made up into almost what looks like a Barbara Streisand lookalike contestant to shoot a flash back from her arrival in New York as a young twenty something (proving that we all get better with age!).

Rumours have been been flying that the star has recently had cosmetic surgery to remove her famous mole, so the make-up artists on set were reapplying it for continuity along with her 80's throwback make-up style!
The full ensemble included white skinny jeans, an off the shoulder jumper, converse trainers & to complete the over all look a tight perm that any rock ballad goddess would be envious of!



There were another two costume changes (slightly more up to date this time!), firstly in a white Halston dress with Louboutins (of course!) as well as a Chanel clutch bag, then later on pretty in purple with Christian Louboutin Gino T-strappies.



Keep your eyes peeled more more scene snaps as the famous four get to work in the big apple!!

Multi-tasking MAC Products

I love products that are multi use, MAC seems to have many of those. There are four products that I particularly love that have multiple uses: Fix+, eyeshadow, clear lipglass, and Mineralize Skinfinish.

Fix +
This is truly a wondrous product. It is a vitamin and mineral infused spray. It also contains green tea, chamomile, cucumber and the fresh scent of Sugi. This is amazing used on bare skin as a refresher or a toner. It can also be used to set make up and to remove a powdery look. Also, it can be used for applying make up and giving it a more intensified look. After loading your brush with eyeshadow or blush, spray Fix+ and then apply to your face. Another amazing use for this product is on your hair. Yup, spray it in your hair to freshen it up!

Eyeshadow
Have you every thought of using eyeshadow as blush? It obviously won't work with all colours, but have you ever come across and eyeshadow and thought - this would look great on my cheeks!? I can't take credit for this discover. My friend Kim suggested that I use MAC Cosmetics Expensive Pink eyeshadow as a blush and it looked amazing! I now use it more on my cheeks then I do on my eyes!

Clear Lipglass
Apply it on your lips for extra shine, but apply it on your bare eyelids and get a super sexy naked look without trying. I love love this!!!

Mineralize Skinfinish
I love Soft and Gentle Mineralize Skinfinish. Sometimes I apply it all over my face to get a nice glow, or certain parts of my face to highlight. I recently swiped it over my eyelids and brow bone and loved it! It's great for mornings when I don't want to put too much effort into doing my make up and it also works perfectly for going out combined with my other eyeshadows.

If you have any products that have multiple uses, let me know! I would love to hear from you!

First day in high school!

Hello Everybody!
Today I was for the first time in my school! But it was good!
I was totally scared and stressed. But I met some girlfriends, and they are very nice ^^
Today I was only for a short time, but tomorrow I have... 8 lessons!!! So many >.<
First is history, then math! (I hate it) and then physic (I totally hate it!).
But I will do my best and I will manage. I hope I will meet many nice friends. More friends, yeah yeah yeah! haha :D

I'm wondering what should I wear tomorrow. I want to look nice. I think I will choose skirt or a dress. And today I bought new shoes for my school!
Like these:



I like them! I have also white pair :)

Today I wore contact lense. And I don't know what to think about it.
Because I managed to wear it quite fast, but my eye became dry. I used some eye drops, but I helped only for a moment. When I removed it, it was totally dry! Too dry in my opinion.
But finally I learnt how to remove contact lense. ^^ I can do it pretty fast.
Putting on is harder, but I am getting better and better in it. :)
Can you tell me about your experiences with contact lenses?

Aww... I feel stressed again. Before tomorrow, haha. I should choose what to wear. It will take a lot of time. So I have to go now :) I will write something tomorrow.
Bai bai! ^^
