Soap and Glory The Next Big Thing

One of the Christmas presents that I was most excited to receive was the Soap and Glory 'The Next Big Thing'. It's tradition for someone in my family to gift me with small Soap and Glory products, so to unwrap this was a big surprise.

The box is very large; perfect for anyone to use for storage purposes after you hve taken the products out. It is covered in a graphic design pattern by Hattie Stewart, quite similar to a hot pink leapord print (I recieved the online exclusive edition). The gift box contained TEN full sized products, yes you heard me, TEN FULL SIZED! The combined price of all the products reached £76, but this was ordered for me when it was a Boots Star Gift at £29.

The box contained:

-Hand Dream Super Cream

-Orangeasm Body Wash

-Butter Yourself Moisture Lotion

-Heel Genius

-Sugar Crush Body Scrub

-Whipped Clean Shower Butter

-The Righteous Butter Body Butter

-Off Your Face Cleansing Cloths

-Sexy Mother Pucker Lipgloss in Charm Offensive and Thick & Fast Super Volume Mascara

-And a drawstring bag

Soap and Glory products usually last me the better part of the year, so this gift box will definately keep me in supply. What's your favourite Soap and Glory products?

MAC: Fraud or Not?

It's getting to the time of year when people start gathering together all there gifts in the rush to the holiday season. They start trying to get the best gifts possible for the best price they can. Unfortunately that leaves them vulnerable for people to take advantage of them. The most common form of this is through the use of counterfeit goods. Recently a MAC lipstick was purchased for me, as a Christmas gift, from eBay. When I learned of it I was immediately sceptical and dubious of how genuine it was; I like to research into the item and view the pictures available myself. When I checked the listing, the lipstick was listed as 'MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick'. Upon looking at the details and the images available, I noticed that there were very few specifics and one general image of the lipstick with the lid off. I immediately wrote to the seller asking for pictures of the bottom label on the box and the lipstick tube (Well as details such as finish and shade). I kn

Totally Fabby MAC Lipstick!

I'm in the middle of shopping for new products; sort of preparing for the transition from winter to spring. Instead of picking up deep burgundies and warm chocolates, I have started to pick up pastel pinks and vanillas. I cannot wait of the warmer weather to roll in. MAC frost lipstick in the shade Fabby was one of those new seasonal additions I picked up recently. Fabby is a really muted rosy pink shade with a frost finish. The draw point, for me, is the frost sheen gives kind of a golden overlay to the lips. The golden tone just adds an extra dimension, and helps brighten up any makeup look. For being a frost finish, the colour pigmentation is quite opaque with a single swipe. The texture is not that creamy, and I don't mean that in a bad way. I'd describe it more as very similar to that of a MAC matte finish; creamy and not glossy. I feel that Fabby is one of MACs more overlooked shades; passed over in favour of the more hyped about lipstic

Barry M Colour Changing Lip Paint in Neptune

Remember way, way back, back to the very beginning of my blog. One of the very first products that I reviewed was the Barry M Lip Paint in the shade Genie. For those who don't know, Genie is an unusual colour changing lipstick. While it looks green in the tube, it turns a shade of pink on the lips that is supposed to be different for each person. It is supposed to be a result of the lipstick reacting to the alkaline level of the lips.
