Just a really quick heads up about a super duper make up offer that FYF, or Flawless You Forever are offering.
They tweeted this earlier today:

"Shop at www.flawlessyouforever before dec 31st 2010 and get 1 free  up item for every one bought! 1 for 1. RT"

So jump over to www.flawlessyouforever.com and grab yourself some treats - what harm will it do?

Steam Cream

Monday 27 December 2010
 Steam Cream is an innovative, new, multi-purpose cream uniquely formulated using pure, unrefined steam for maximum absorption. Made for all skin types, this cream is locally produced using fresh, natural ingredients.


Each handy-sized tin has a quirky design, printed onto eco-friendly packaging, and is available at an affordable price from www.steamcream.co.uk


The cream itself is brilliant too, it is easily absorbed and moisturises the skin quickly, leaving a gorgeous lavender-scent in the air.

The cream contains
 a moisturising and soothing oatmeal infusion, orange flower water and healing lavender oil, all to breakdown and penetrate areas of skin that other creams find hard to reach.



For more information, visit www.steamcream.eu

Christmas Cheer!

Whilst your wrapping up warm in fur and woolen hats,

Enjoy spending time with your family and having lovely chats.

Whilst your out in the cold looking up at the dull skies, 

Take time to feast on delicious mince pies.

Whilst having fun putting up the tree,

Gain delight in decorating thee.

Whilst wrapping up fabulous presents,

Be entertained by their pleasants.

Have a very Merry Christmas and rejoice in the New Year,

Now its your turn to spread some festive cheer!

To give everyone that follows, a little delight,

Maybe we'll reach Santa? - HO HO HO!

What to buy her for Christmas..

Sunday 19 December 2010
For that special someone in your life, whether it be your girlfriend, wife, best friend, mum, or sister, there are some lovely things out there that I'm sure she wouldn't mind receiving..
Watches are a true Christmas gift classic, they extra special, and can easily become a woman's most worn accessory. Here is a little selection of this years finest..


1. BCBGMAXAZRIA BG8235 - Elite Sport Watch


This gorgeous watch comes in 7 fabulous colours which will brighten up any outfit. With 30 meters water resistance and gold tone steel case, this is sure to be a winner.


The attachment at the back is a stylish double push closure, and the strap size can be easily adjusted. The stone set dial and rubber bracelet finish it off beautifully and make the watch comfortable and soft to wear.


The watch has a three-hand dial, and three sub-dials for date, day, and 24hour count.
The colour pictured is Violet, and it can be found here.


2. Ted Baker TE4038


This watch has an opal backing and purple accents. It has a three-hand dial, as well as three sub-dials for day, date and 24hour count. 


 The double push closure is engraved with "Ted Baker" and on the reverse of the face, the watch is said to be 'No Ordinary Designer Watch'. The 50m water resistance is a superb quality, as is the stainless steel case and strap.


The watch comes packaged beautifully in this stylish case, with a 2 year manufactures warranty.



3. BCBGMAXAZRIA BG6210


This watch is a classic, there is no need for batteries, as with simple day-to-day actions, the automatic dial is wound up. This however does mean that the watch needs to be worn almost daily, otherwise it can easily stop and loose time. 

The mechanical clockwork features that can be seen make this watch very sophisticated and classy.
The watch has normal leather straps which are attached with a gold buckle. The leather strap is stunning, adding to the whole look and feel of the timepiece. 


All watches can be found at www.ticwatches.co.uk

Love this week..

FYF Mineral Loose Powder.





It's amazing texture helps you to wear this powder with ease. Use as a foundation or setting powder to achieve best results. Available from www.flawlessyouforever.com

FYF

Friday 10 December 2010
Flawless You Forver, known as FYF in the beauty world, are a relatively new American make up brand.

"A range of core and mineral make-up, skincare and spa products specially designed to keep you looking the way you should. Gorgeous!"

The products arrived neatly wrapped in crisp pink tissue paper and were neatly arranged, making the packaging look stunning.


 FYF has been all over Youtube recently with reviews and raves, as everyone is loving their products. If you have already heard about FYF prior to this post, then the product you will most probably instantly recognise is their Floral Blush.

Floral Blush in Romance, £11.85

This blush is absolutely stunning and is a favourite amongst all. If you haven't tried it out, do! As it combines three shades to create a pretty rose pink.

Floral Blush in Romance, £11.85

It's highly pigmented and is soft & smooth to apply. The rose shape of the blush is another bonus, as unlike the MAC ones a couple of years back, these keep their shape brilliantly. This is a definite must have. £11.85

Radiant Eye Shadow in Moon Beam £7.49

Another of their products is their Radiant Eye Shadow in Moon Beam. Now this is absolutely gorgeous! It has been described as an 'all that glitters' without the pink undertones, and I agree. It is a gentle brown with silver pearl and can be worn softly all over the lid for a hint of sparkle or can be used to add some depth to the eye through the crease. £7.49 (swatch below)
I love this, and would love to try out some of their other colours too.


Their website is brilliant, as it converts into multiple currencies, as well as offering free worldwide shipping.
They have recently installed a virtual makeover application which allows you to try their products onto a model, however, I would say that the swatches aren't that brilliant.

Virtual Makeover showing the Moisturising Dewdrop Lipstick in Cranberry
taken from www.flawlessyouforever.com

Shown on the model is the Moisturising Dewdrop lipstick in cranberry, and as you can see it's different to what's shown on the model. Don't get me wrong, this is a gorgeous colour, but when your expecting a peachy, coral-y pink, it is slightly disappointing. However, regardless of the colour the pigmentation is good, and the payoff is brilliant.

Dewdrop Moisturising Lipstick in Cranberry £8.73

Away from the colour issues, the Lipstick contains Vitamin E and soothing emollients to keep your lips smooth, soft and moisturised. A true swatch of Cranberry is below, along with the eye shadow in moon beam and another Lipstick in Natalie, mentioned below. 

Shown on the swatch is the Couture Pout Mineral Lipstick in Natalie. This is a lovely pink nude, and everyone loves it. It has been featured on Pearls and Poodles, The Style Diet, and Bella's Beauty Spot.

Couture Pout Mineral Lipstick in Natalie £11.23
 The lipstick combines the best of science and nature to give you a 'youthful pucker' by visibly reducing fine lines. It is formulated with shea butter and lip conditioners like avocado and jojoba oil, they hydrate your lips and keep them soft and supple. £11.23



The last on the list is the Miracle Coat Nail Enamel, and this was a slight disappointment. It was due to the swatch situation, as what I thought would be a lovely light, matte nude colour, turned out to be a French pink, that simply gave the nails some shine. It is priced at £5.61, which is not bad, but if I am honest, I would rather nip to boots and pick up a top coat for £2-£4.

FYF are currently working on their website swatches and working with different technologies that are available to bring their customers an authentic experience.
