Review || 17 Va Va Voom Mascara

Hello everyone!

So, this being my first post of 2014, I decided to make it a review as I know how many people struggle with finding the highest quality, affordable beauty product, including me! 

In today's post I will be introducing you to Boots own brand '17'. I absolutely love their make up, and feel like it's not cheap looking after application, and it is so damn affordable.

I usually buy new mascaras which come out, because they are always on offer in Boots. This time I decided to change my plans a bit, because as you already know, I like 17 make up and was very pleased with their new 'backlash' mascara so originally I was going to repurchase that item. However All of the 17 mascaras were on offer for £4 each. I went crazy, everyone was staring at me! I decided to try something different so I went for the Va Va Voom in 'blackest black'. All I had to do was put one coat on and look at the effect. It is an amazing mascara and is so worth buying, especially as it is so cheap! 

Hope this helps anyone who is wondering what mascara to get!:)

Love, Maya xo

Recent Purchases

Hey beauties!

Just a quick post on a couple of my new clothes!

I bought a Topshop crop top, with 3/4 sleeves. It's see-through at the back, with just lace to cover it.

It's very soft in touch. I wish they hadn't run out of smaller sizes as the smallest size was a 10, and it's too big on me. I also bought some Mom jeans. I've been looking for some well fitting ones for a long time now and I have finally found these in Miss Selfridge! They are for petites so that's always good seeing as I'm really short. They fit me perfectly well. I will include some pics of me wearing those clothes in future posts, but that's all for today :)

MUA Matte Lipstick Review

Hello lovelies :)

I have recently purchased MUA's Matte effect lipstick. Still a great bargain at £1 per lipstick. I couldn't find any of the other colours I liked as there was only about 3 shades left and most of the lipsticks were opened, and my friend took the last one of a dark, browny shade. I WANTED IT! 

This lipstick is in shade - Pouty Pink, it's a lovely bright pink colour. I love it.

The packaging: I thought the packaging was quite simple, but classy. The sudden change from going to white from black is nice, and makes the lipstick look like it's limited edition. It's so pretty and the fact that it cost me only £1 is just unbelievable. Move over MAC, because MUA is taking over our hearts!

The application: This lipstick is very easy to apply as it's extra soft even though the texture is matte. It was so soft that it almost glided onto my lips! I will definitely buy more of these lipsticks as they are such amazing value for money! I need the whole collection ;) Overall, I am very pleased with this product, and I hope it will last me a long time as I use it nearly every day :)

A cheeky cup of flavoured green tea, with pear and apple!
It tastes amazing and I'm such a big fan of teas!!

Lots of love,

Lazy glam day

Hey guys!

I feel so happy lately, probably because my birthday is coming up!! I'm already excited about Crimbo, but my birthday is much more exciting as I will be turning 18!!!!

Here I am wearing my favourite jeans from H&M, I rolled them up so my frilly socks would be more visible as they are gorgeous. The socks are from Primark and only cost me £1.50 per pair!! Such an amazing bargain!

I can definitely say that I'm the happiest I've been in those past few months which is such a lovely feeling! I almost have forgotten what it's like to be happy and enjoy life. I'm already stressing about my A-level exams even though they start in May! I've been revising so much already, hence why I don't post too often, but that will change as soon as all my college work is out of the way!

Anyway, have a lovely day my darlings! :) ♡

Lots of love, Maya xo
