Skinetica Review
Hey guys,
Last month I was sent a bottle of Skinetica. Skinetica is a acne and blemish treatment for your skin.
Firstly I would like to thank the kind people at Skinetica for giving me the opportunity to try their product, and also to complement their amazing customer service!
Skinetica comes in a small white 100ml bottle. (Picture below) The packaging like quite plain and to the point, as it just has the the product name, logo and brief description of the product. The product itself is a clear thing liquid.
Anyway, more importantly - the review!
As mentioned above, Skinetca's customer relations is absolutely outstanding! From an informative website to fast product delivery, Skinetica covers it all.
The next positive aspect of the product I would like to talk about us the ease of use. Skinetica should e applied to clean, dry skin twice a day. That's it no waiting two minutes and rinse or use with...! Just a quick application and your ready. You can also apply your make up over Skinetica.
Fortunately my skin wouldn't be too bad, just the odd blemish here and there and the occasional breakout that we all know too well.
At the time I was using Skinetica I was going through a bad enough breakout so using Skinetica really helped. The lumps and bumps in my cheeks really smoothened out. Skinetica cleared my cheeks without leaving any scars or blemishes, which I believe is vital.
Skinetica feels nice on the skin and didn't leave that horrible greasy, heavy feeling after use.
Anyway that's it for today's review guys!

Lilac hair
Hey guys,
Sorry we haven't been posting in a while!
This post is going to include my love for lilac hair. This colour can range from grey to purple.
It is my dream to have lilac hair unfortunately I can't have it because I would have to bleach my hair for it to show because I am brunette and that would damage my hair a lot.
This hair looks like a fairy tale it's beautiful. It would be perfect for this time because we are heading towards spring/summer and we'll be seeing a lot of pastel colours.
Hair is like an accessory it can make the outfit and you can wear it all different ways. It would suit anything from bandanas to flowers in your hair.
Please leave comments of what you think of this hair colour and would you be confident enough to pull it off?
Thanks for reading!

BAFTA Look Book
Hi guys,
As you all know the BAFTA's were on last night, so once again the kings and queens of Hollywood were out in their finery. Like I did with the Golden Globes, I decided to pick out a few of my favourite dresses from the BAFTA red carpet!
Jennifer Lawrence looked absolutely stunning in this strapless Dior dress! I am loving the natural look and simple accessories.
Emilia Fox was looking very elegant in this strapless WilliamVintage 1958 Givenchy dress. She completed her classic look with emerald and diamond jewels.
Anne Hathaway sported this fabulous studded Burberry dress. I love this style of dress on her, it really suits her new hairstyle aswell. This was just one of the dresses Anne was spotted in last night!
Compared to the Golden Globes red carpet, the lack of mermaid style dresses were surprising! The classic red carpet style really dominated last night's Red Carpet. Let us know what you thought of the BAFTA Red Carpet

Spring Time
Hey guys, sorry we haven't posted in a while, busy, busy, busy! But anyway, happy start of Spring, and what does this mean? It's time to clear the blues, blacks and navy's from your wardrobe and replace them with pinks, pastels and of course florals! So today we are going to give you a brief synopsis of our favourite classic Spring looks.
1) Pastel Colours
Pastel colours are perfect in our eyes! It's something you can't go wrong with, they're is a shade that goes with everyone. Pastel colours also go with almost everything and will really brighten up your spring waredrobe.
2) Floral Prints
I know, I know 'been there done that', but we really do like floral prints! Our floral favs have to be floral Dr Martens. Floral prints will most definitely introduce a fun spring element to your waredrobe.
3) Bright Accessorise
We are serial waredrobe recyclers, i.e reusing fashion favs all year round. So have different styles of accessories can be really important! For this Spring season we are personally loving bright bags! They completely transform your outfit at very little cost!
So that's it for this post anyway! Let us know of your Spring must haves!

I moustache you a question
Hey guys!
What do you think of the moustache trend?
I know it's dated but we love it so much we just had to write about it before it ends. It's just too cute.
This trend hit the high street hard in summer 2012. The moustache trend is Quirky, whimsical and super fun!
It's believed that the fake moustache trend originated with hipsters as a way to mock conventional ideals of fashion and style.
I personally love the trend. I bought a lot of pieces over the summer! I did the trend on my nails a few times too and it was super cute. The colours in this trend are usually pastel or black & white.
Here are a few of our favourite moustache fashion pieces.
What do you think of the trend?

Beyonce~Heat Review
Hi Guys!
So I decided I would do my first perfume review today.
This review is going to be on Beyonce's perfume, heat. This has a retail price of approximately £20.00 for a 100ml bottle. I thought this price is amazing for what you get.
It has such a nice smell, which isn't too heavy nor too light. It lasts through everything from running through the rain to sweating through a work-out. It has a cute bottle that isn't too OTT either.
It's also one of the number one celebrity scents in the United States.
The scent is floral and fruity. It features radiant floral bouquet of red vanilla orchid, magnolia and neroli, balanced with a kiss of luscious blush peach.
For the packaging/presentation I would give it 3/5 and for the scent 4/5.

Let me know what you think of this perfume or if you want me to do a review on any!

What's in My Bag #1
Hey guys,
Sorry we haven't posted in awhile, but we're back! Today's post is about every girls must have; a handbag. Handbags are so important for shopping to school! It is a fashion must have.
There are millions of different bags to suit millions of different people, but here's our favourite:

It's the Geo Studded Holdall from Topshop and costs £40.00
We personally like bigger bags for the simple reason that it holds more!
Anyway, here's what's in our bag:
1) Mobile Phone (iPhone)
We would't go ANYWHERE without are mobile phones and either should you!
2) House/Car Keys
Well if you are lucky enough to own a car you really shouldn't go far without it. For the rest of us walkers and lift takers we bring our house keys, because you never know when you are gonna be locked out and waiting for someone to come home.
3) Tissues
Even when we don't have a cold or the flu we also bring a travel pack of tissues with us, just in case!
4) Mascara and lip gloss
We would never leave the house without knowing that there is a mascara and lip gloss somewhere in our bags!
5) Bottle of Water
We would always, always, always put a bottle of water in our handbags when leaving the house. Hydration is the key!
6) Purse
No matter how rich or poor you are, always bring your purse with you. You never know you might stumble upon a one day only 90% off sale!
7) Umbrella
This needs no explaining..
8) Chewing gum/ Breath spray
Garlic bread with lunch, you know what we mean.
After rummaging through our bags and picking out the last few stray pennies, we think that's about it! Let us know what's in your bag.
