Cloud Nine

I was soooo excited to find that my parcel arrived a lot earlier than expected yesterday morning. I managed to find (with a little help of a fellow instagramer) the most amazing bracelet going, So much so that i had to and i stress the words had to buy it in both colours.

The Cloud Nine bracelet is a chunky double wrap chain style bracelet that is surprisingly lightweight in comparison to its appearance!

It is available in a few colours, but i fell head over heels in love with the gold and silver version after spotting it on Instagram... but then, i spotted it in Rose Gold too. Eeeeep.

L: Cloud Nine in Silver & Gold (£13.53) 

R: Cloud Nine in Rose Gold (£16.11)

You can get the Cloud Nine bracelet from LoveChiChi over at Etsy here

I can not fault her, i received a prompt reply everytime i had a quibble over the postage from Australia to the UK and postage was estimated to be 2 weeks but they arrived a little over a week later. Yaysome.

I will definitely buy from Love ChiChi again, i have my beady little magpie-eye on her amazing selection of chunky necklaces.

Palmer's Dark Chocolate and Peppermint Butter

My lips have been taking some serious winter weather bashing so in a desperate attempt to salvage them i picked up Palmers Dark Chocolate and Peppermint Butter (£2.75) from boots which contains pure Cocoa Butter, Vitamin E, Petrolatum and Peppermint oil which leave you a little tingly ;)
I have two words for you Totes Amaze... Oh, and another two Must Have.
Not only does this smell amazing and oddly enough taste amazing for a 'lip balm' it actually does what it promises to do, a rarity in most cases. It softened and moisturised my lips from the very first use and left a lovely non sticky glossy shine on my pout :) deeelightful. Safe to say this has been carried around with me since the day i bought it.

17 Supreme Shine Lipstick (with Femme Noir Free Gift)

I cant resist most things in a shiny pretty packaging so when 17 chucked in a little free incentive by the name of Femme Noir gift set with my Supreme Shine Lipsticks (£4.99 each), i was yet again... at the checkout.

I'm always impressed with 17 lipsticks so i didn't think twice when picking up these shades, Pink Posey and Barely Blush. Like most of their lipsticks they are very moisturising, i think that's what keeps me going back to them especially in the winter time, remember kids, no one likes a chapped set of smackers!

The free gift contains

• 17 Ultimate Volume Lip Gloss in Very Berry
• 17 Glitter Eyeshadow in Night Sky
• 17 Liquid Liner in Black

I've previously purchased a very similar shade of Very Berry lip gloss so its a bonus to have a back-up, as for the glitter eyeshadow, i tend to keep away from these but hey I'm an open minded kinda gal. I think the liquid liner has to be the pick pick out of the lot, its an intense colour and very easy to apply something that i think most people look for in a liquid liner.

Someone say Christmas party? Chiche-Cheesay! ;)

17 BB Blemish Balm

I could rave about 17 cosmetics all day, i think for the price the quality is unbeatable. So, when I'd seen the odd tweet flying around from privileged bloggers who had managed to get there hands on the the 17 BB cream (£6.99) early saying how great it was, i wanted it there and then!

As soon as it hit the store, i was there, BB (Medium) in hand at the checkout of my local Boots.

The wonder cream promises to transform your complexion and cover imperfections in one easy step. Eee excited much. 

Considering the cream is a primer, foundation, concealer and skincare in one tube i found it to be weightless and very easy to blend, leaving no unsightly streaks. What i like about the cream most it that it doest leave me feeling like I'm sporting a 'cakeface' with my complexion being less than perfect at the moment (darn man flu!) i feel like i need several layers of the heavy duty stuff to give me a half decent complexion but I'm wearing this today and it seems to be doing the job so far.

This combined with my alllll time fave 17 Hide and Chic Concealer (must do a review i use it all the time) is sure to become a staple in my make up bag.
