Hello Jelly Beans,   I have an awesome review for you today. The first time I twisted Benefit’s Fake Up Crease-Control Hydrating Concealer, I came this close to swiping the stick across my lips. But can you blame me? Doesn’t it look an awful lot like one? From the left: Light, Medium and Dark   The Fake ups, borrow that same lycanthropic idea by combining two different things. Twist up the tube to reveal a stick with a creamy concealer center surrounded by a solid moisturizer containing vitamin E and apple extract.   For a brighter under-eye area, less visible dark circles and a lightweight look, just swipe under your eyes, and blend with a finger. The hydrating formula (decently moisturizing, but I wouldn’t give up eye cream for it) steers clear of my fine lines, too, and I swear it looks like real skin. Benefit likes to streamline their products, many times releasing things in one or two shades.   Sometimes, I think it really w...

Hello Jelly Beans. :)   I have a lovely post for you today, I say lovely, because I really like the product, and I love the name, it sounds so sweet don't you think? So ladies (and gents?) I give you, the MeMeMe Dew Pots . Very cute packaging!  I really like the MeMeMe branding... I can't quite put my finger on whether to consider them 'high street'... their quality, design and price puts them at the top end of high street (or drugstore depending on where you're reading this).   Company Thoughts   So, here's what they claim:   "High performance, ultra long-stay rich colour eye defining cream in 8 opulent shades to add an on-trend splash of colour to your look this season. Use alone for colour blocking or blend multiple shades together for ultimate impact" My Thoughts I really really like it :)  I was a bit apprehensive first of all as it's very soft, but it sets really well so I was pleasantly surprised.  I...

Hello Jelly Beans.   Sorry I have been M.I.A lately, but work has been going crazy for me. With that said I am now back with a cracking review for you all.   I really don’t have the patience or the time to mess around with fake lashes, so I just gave up. Yes, I am a fake lash quitter, go ahead, judge me…   Anyways, I am the type of person that if for any reason I don’t want to wear a full face of makeup, I still put on a coat of mascara. Leaving the house first thing in the morning to run errands? Walking the dog late at night without makeup? Put on mascara and bam, insta-gorgeous!   Whenever I take those surveys that ask “what is the one makeup item you cannot live without?" I’m all about the mascara. Why? Because if your eyes don’t pop, your entire face can look dull and lifeless, which doesn’t make anyone happy, right?

  So a couple of weekends ago, I went shopping and picked up a few new nail polishes. As im sure you all know by now I'm a nail polish freak!!    Full size polishes purchased (left to right): China Glaze 'Peachy Keen', Essie 'Bikini So Teeny', OPI 'Significant Other Color', OPI 'Nothin' Mousie Bout It', and OPI 'The Flowers are Blue-ming' I also purchased the OPI Spiderman Collection 4-pack which includes 4 mini polishes from the collection. Those colors, pictured above, are (left to right): 'Into the Night', 'Just Spotted the Lizard', 'Your Web or Mine?', and 'Number One Nemesis'. Two coats was perfect for me when I applied one of them a few days ago, however I added a third coat followed by a topcoat for added shine. I had no problems with this polish and would highly recommend it!  That's it for this post! I hope the photos were helpful Disclaimer - I bought these polishes with my...

Below is a little information given to me about what Tuffys are... What are Tuffys? These imaginatively designed, 'Tuff' toys come in funky shapes and sizes, including Sea Creatures, Ultimates, Juniors and now in super cute Barnyard and Zoo styles too! With 28 fun toys to choose from, your dog will be entertained for hours! All of the Tuffy toys are suitable for use in water and most squeak but there are some that don't, so if you or your dog are not keen on squeakers you haven't been left out! As you will see from our gallery pictures, Tuffy's are not just for dogs but other pets and even Zoo animals can enjoy them too! What makes Tuffy toys so Tuff? The secret to the TUFFness is in the design; each TUFFY is made using up to four layers of different types of material and is filled with a non-toxic fibre. They are held together by up to seven rows of clever cross stitching, all bound up in a protective bindin...

NYX Stay Matte But Not Flat Foundation This is my favourite day time foundation, I wear this day to day going to work and what I love about it is the coverage it gives me and the fact that it’s long lasting. I do have to wear a primer underneath to get the full days wear. The name states its Matte but not flat, but I don’t find this foundation mattifying at all, if anything it leaves a dewy type finish on the skin and because I like a matte finish on my skin, I do have to mattify it with a powder. I wish there were more shades in this foundation.       NYX HD Concealer I use this concealer for under eyes, to cover up dark circles, the concealer is quite lightweight and I have often read that it’s a cheaper dupe for the NARS Radiant Concealer, it feels really light on the under eye area and give good coverage, however, I felt that around 4-5 hours later the layer started to become more transparent and started to fade away. I do like this product but, I jus...

  Pack For Paws, who kindly sent me this box for review, is a monthly delivery service designed for your family members with paws! Each month you will receive a pack which includes 4 to 8 premium products that have been hand picked, tested and approved by the staff. First Look My Fur Baby is getting so spoiled this week with all these pet boxes and this one is no exception. The box was nice and full and contained lots of goodies! The Information Card Pack For Paws includes a card packed with production information, however, some of the items in the box weren’t on the information card.  I will separate those items, just in case. ~ Tumbleweeds & Eddie’s Treats . These treats are all natural and use only human grade ingredients .  I think Harvey is going to be generous and share these with his Girlfriend who would love these!  The dog treats clearly look like they are for dogs, but the brownies look like people foo...
