My First Nars Product - Nars Gina Blush...

Good evening lovelies =]

Up until very recently I did not own a single Nars product. I'd picked them up in Space NK many times but never ended up buying them, partly due to the £20.50 price tag. This was until the gorgeous Yinka over at Vexinthecity recommended Nars Gina during Buyapowa blogging week and I knew I had to buy it!
Please excuse the grubby packaging, I'm sure anyone who owns a Nars product will sympathise! The packaging is beautiful but picks up finger prints & product like nobody's business!
As you can see Gina is a beautiful matt peach shade, leaning slightly towards coral. Being a matt shade I was worried it would look a little flat but it actually adds a glow to my complexion without making me look like a discoball! Gina is very pigmentated and you only need the smallest amount for it to give a lovely flush of colour or it can be easily built up for a more dramatic look. I've been reaching for this blush every morning since it arrived, it makes me look awake and radiant in the morning & it lasts all day.

Here is me with the Gina applied...
Overall I'm really impressed with Nars Gina and I can't wait to pick up more Nars products, Laguna is next on the list!

Nars Gina is normally priced at £20.50 & is available here.
I paid £15.50 on Buyapowa, a saving of £5.00!

What are your favourite Nars products?

Mini Mac Haul...

 Good evening ladies, I hope you all had a fab weekend!

Me & the other half took a rare day off work today & I dragged him to Bluewater to do a spot of Christmas shopping!

No shopping trip is complete without a little visit to Mac, with it being so close to Christmas I couldn't justify buying lots so I just got couple of bits. Here is what I picked up...
Mac blush in 'Desert Rose' & Mac Cremesheen lipstick in 'Creme Cup'
L-R: Mac Desert Rose Blush & Mac Creme Cup Lipstick
I've had my eye on Cremecup for ages, I'm really glad I finally have it in my collection =]



Whilst at Bluewater we decided to try the Cadbury Cocoa House for a spot of lunch, whilst in there I took a few photo's for my lovely blogerinos!
The inside is lovely & cosy and I was amazed by the vase's full of chocolate!

I chose the chocolate fudge cake...
Tony had the scones with jam & clotted cream...
I have to be honest & say that the food wasn't that great. 

My caramel latte was cold when I got it & it had to be replaced and the chocolate fudge cake was very dry. Me & Tony both thought it would be alot more chocolate orientated but it was just like any other coffee shop in my opinion. I'm glad I've been but I don't think I would choose to go there again. 

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? I'm nearly finished, yay!
