Glossybox!




Now I have had my eye on Birchbox just waiting for them to announce the are going international! But no need thanks to GlossyBox, it's just like but to me the samples you get are so generous and I have just signed up!
Now I'm a student so just have a retail job. I cannot afford to buy all these expensive products I admire to find they are horrible or do not work for me and I know a huge majority of women will be the same. 



Basically you subscribe and pay £10 monthly and each month you are sent high end products to test, because just trying out once at the counter is not always enough to find how much you love it or need it!
Follow this to get the low-down and to subscribe to their youtube! 





Follow this for their site and to sign up:



This is how it arrives and is sent :) How cute, so much attention to detail!


This is what is inside this months...
All for eve lipstick

Alterna (Caviar Anti-Aging Rapid Repair Spray) (for hair)



Bionova (Bioactive Cleanser for Normal/Dry Skin)


Como Shambhala (Invigorate Body Lotion)


NARS (Orgasm Illuminator)

YES it has NARS and I believe it is 30ml tube aswell.
  

Now I haven't ofc received my own just yet because I only found out through a Beauty Guru's Channel on Youtube, (S Walker Makeup) and had to spread the word about this amazing opportunity! 
I really hope people read and find products that are perfect for them they wouldn't normally have the chance to do :) 

I suggest you keep an eye on her Channel and blog for reviews soon and find links for others via :)

HELP: DRESSES!


I have my A level prom coming up on the 1st of July and only recently realised I obviously need to go bloody dress shopping -_- I'm not a big dress person, maxi is about as far as I'll go (hate my legs)
Just browsing on MissSelfridge and saw these three that I quite like especially the Camel and I love the oriental but it is really not something I would usually go for... Some feedback would be appreciated. 
I'm not Marjorly tall but in heels look tall because I have long legs, I'm slim and plan on wearing my hair down in curls. Another valid point you'll have to know is we will all be hitting the town after, so I need something that will be suitable :) 


Camel midi dress with contrasting black mesh yoke detail and belt. 100% Viscose. Price: £36.00 
LOVE the cut of this with the mesh, just very unsure on the length, I have skinny legs and feel like they would look like match sticks dangling hahaha!


Oriental print long sleeve dress with belt detail. 100% Polyester. Price: £45.00 
Love this cut, the high neck, I'm very strict on showing either leg or chest- never both! The soft colours are perfect for me and I love how girly and floaty it is. Now the image doesn't do it justice so clear here and see it worn on a catwalk... http://www.missselfridge.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&langId=-1&storeId=12554&catalogId=33055&parent_category_rn=&categoryId=222486&productId=2398357




Petites lilac sleeveless dress with drape front and waist tie detail. 100% Polyester. Price: £34.00 
Now I have a dress much like this cut, very simple... very me! Love the colour and how it sinches in at the waist but not sure on how short it would be and if the neckline is flattering? Hmmm. 




Feedback really would be appreciated :)  and if seeing my body type would help more, search me on FB under Lizz Tennant I am pretty sure it's an open profile (do not know how to change tbh)






 
XOXO

BOOTS 3FOR2!

BOOTS 3FOR2!


 I'll be honest my blog hasn't been very popular, but I am not surprised lol But it is fun to do and I have some free time right now so... 


Boots have a 3 for 2 on their make- up etc. so yesterday and today took advantage. I went into Boots to get a friend some birthday bits, like nail varnish and some Soap and Glory. Rimmel have some amazing colours atm! 


This is what I got... 
I have been after a pastel yellow for ages! My bf very kindly got me this one :) I put it straight on and on my toes too PERFECT spring/ summer colour! 

The bf chose this one, I'm not huge on pink but hot pink nails add's such a pop on me because I do not wear much colour and I loveee this one too :D

I went back today as the BFF wanted a trip for this offer too :) 

About a month ago my fave blush cracked and mushed up everywhere all in my bag! Not happy. It's the second time the Rimmel blush has done it when I haven't even hit the pan so thought i'd try a new one. This colour  is pretty much the same colour, It's called Rose Frission No. 54. 


It is creamier and smells so good! Now I'd take a pic but my camera decided to stop working... it comes with a mirror and little brush. Tbh I advise not to use it as it holds too much product and you look like a doll.





 I also bought two lip colours. I NEVER wear lip colour but the new coral/ orange trend has caught my eye. I LOVE CORAL. Im even thinking about painting my room a coral colour (toned down not bright!) Last Thursday I stopped at Laura Mercier and they had new glosses and this lip gloss was very similar but they were out of stock :( Then I saw this one! so grabbed it! haha The two together are so nice but quite bright, something I am thinking of wearing out instead of a red. 

Picture does not do them justice! 
Top: Gloss- Revlon 020 Papaya Papaye
Bottom: Lipstick- Max Factor 825 Pink Brandy 

AND lastly I picked up a little bottle of Soap and Glory hand cream 'Hand Food' I LOVE THESE PRODUCTS haha. They smell so good and do everything they say on the tin. This makes your hands so so soft. Im in love and it's perfect to pop in your bag :) 

Thats the end, hope somebody reads up and likes and goes off to Boots while the offers on! Hope your all good :)<3
