Hey guys, I've been meaning to post a review on this for a while, I don't know why its taken me so long, most of these pictures are from when I originally bought it! So onto the review....
There have been many reviews on the babylips, I know there was a massive hype on them and then as soon as they were available in the UK the trend seem to grew. Many reviews were positive but there were a few negative ones, I'm not sure why because I've seen nothing but great things from this little tube :) I think it may depend on which on you have, I do want to try out every single one now..
First of all as a regular lip balm, it. is. amazing. Whenever I put this on it doesn't seem to just put a 'layer' of moisture on the lips like a lot of other ones (Vaseline being one), it really hydrolysis them. - And those moisturised lips aren't temporary, my lips will stay soft for many many hours. On days when I have this to hand I top it up really often and my lips feel beautiifuull.
I chose cherry me because I wanted a lip balm with a slight hint of colour that I could just 'slap on' haha. As you can see from the swatch it's a very pretty pink, I would say that it
does show on the lips! I like to put this on when I have a pretty pink blusher on to make the look very girly :)
Overall I really love this lip Balm, It moisturises, adds colour, looks good and is not expensive! I must own them all now.....

Have you tried any of the Babylips? What ones have you used and would you recommend?
*apologises for lack of posts*
I just have to say, I love this eyeliner, it's better than any liquid eyeliner i've ever used.
Extreme 24hr felt tip liner by collection 2000
It's a felt tip liner which I think is amazing because it allows you to create such precise lines without being messy! (Which I always am with very liquid-y eyeliners)
I cannot do flicks to save my life but with this I can which is what made me buy it in the first place!
I've had mine for a long time and it hasn't dried up, plus the nib is still as pointy as when I first bought it.
This shows how precise you can make the lines, I must say I was being too delicate on my hand and it would normally be more opaque on your eyes, I added one more swipe to show you here:
I also have to mention the staying power. Oh how good it is. I applied this on my eyes very early one morning, had a full day at college, then went to work (where I run around a lot) then when I took it off at 11 that evening it was still intact, no smudges or creasing.
I would definitely recommend this eyeliner, especially if you're on a budget, it's only £2.99 in superdrug!
Now to get the other colours..
~ sorry for the lack of posts!! Do you own this eyeliner? What is your favourite eyeliner?
So I'm all finished for summer now (minus work) and going to have a lot of free time, last year all I did was paint my nails different patterns every week and became obsessed! I don't have as much time anymore so will hopefully paint them more again for a while.
I'm new to essie and these are my second and third buys, they are both really pretty pinks! The lighter shade is "we're in this together" and the darker shade is "cascade cool". (P.S the sun made the varnish go a bit 'bitty' on my nails so please excuse!)
We're in this together is a baby pink with a hint of shimmer in and is veryy pretty.
Cascade cool is a slightly darker pink and has no shimmer, this colour particularly was very opaque and you could just use 1 coat, I used 2 coats of each colour here.
~~What's your favourite essie colour?
