Make The Most Of The Men's Collecton?! : Jewellery

^I didn't really know what to call this post. But, this is going to be about the Men's collection jewellery, in which i think is particularlly good round the sale times as you can see > TopMan Earrings £1. I, as an girl that does like her crosses and skulls, the mens section is a good place to start. Not only do i have the view, that places do rip us girls off, because men's jewellery is a fair bit cheaper than woman's even for similar stuff. I also like earrings to not match and as it is stereotypical that an man only has one ear piercing that they usually have a variety of one studs only

Bit of an random post, but would defiantly recommend anybody looking around for jewellery to look at the men's section as you may find an bargain

Much love

Lynx For Her& CK One: Review ♥


LYNX Attract for her

Recently, these are the two bodysprays/perfumes i have bought.


If you have seen the adverts, you will know that LYNX for her is an limited edition spray that has come out and at the moment you can purchase on special offer. I would totally recommend this, because as an LYNX fan, i, as a girl, have purchased LYNX that is for men many times because of the smell. This however, has a more of an unique smell that suits women much better and lasts for a long time on the skin. My mum even asked me what perfume i was wearing because of the scent it gives.

CK one
CK one has been on my wanted list for a long time, ever since it was on offer over christmas and my friend bought it. The other week i went into boots and saw this perfume, which  was 100ml for £22.66, but orignally sold for £34. This is such an classic fragrance, which ever since i have worn it have got many compliments of people in the streets or when i'm out at restaurants. It's an light fragrance, but one that is so fresh.


Both of these fragrances i love and would recommend they aren't going to break the bank.


Much Love,

Review: Thermo Rollers

Recently, I've been testing out new techniques to gain volumised hair, without all the tugging, pulling and back combing, just to gain that extra milometer of volume. Actually, it was 'all about amy' TV programme about the beautiful 'Amy Childs' (who makes me laugh so much!), that i saw rollers in her hair. The day after i saw some thermo rollers (Top: Denman Thermoceramic self grip rollers) that i thought I'd give them a try. So, i did and was pleasantly surprised by the result they gave me!

Couple of days later, i was walking past superdrug, and my legs took a wonder into the shop, where i found (Bottom: Superdrug 6 thermo rollers- extra large) i thought I'd vary the size of rollers, to whether to gain that slight curl in my hair, and the rollers gave an nice effect once again.

I recommend rollers to anybody looking for relaxed curls that'll looked glamorous and partially volumized. They're cheap enough and takes no time at all, as all you do is put your hair dryer to medium and blow dry the rollers for a couple of minutes, then when they have cooled down, take them out!! I think they look very vintage aswell ;)

Much love,

The Good And The Evil...♥

China Glaze-Awakening


Barry M- Pink Flamingo
China glaze nail polishes have got a reputation to be incredibly good, this is what persuaded me to purchase one. They retail at about £6-£8 in the UK. Also, i picked up a trustworthy Barry M nail paint. I generally always love Barry M nail vanishes as at £2.99, they are incredibly cheap and an incredible quality. Out of these two nail vanishes, i wanted one perfect for this type of whether. They may be total opposite shades. China glaze is an two tone colour, with a mix of purple and gold. Whereas, Barry M is what i describe as an 'Barbie Pink', its pure pink with a coral undertone to it. Surprisingly, i HATED china glazes, with such the hype around their nail vanishes, i was shocked at the result. After 3 coats, the colour (Awakening) still didn't completely covered my nail, the liquid was just to thin, and as i tried to build up the colour, it took hours to dry, literally about 4hours just because i couldn't get a colour pay off. Then i also tried Barry M's, it was totally brilliant, as always. Within two coats of the colour (Pink Flamingo) my nails look fabulous, and super summery. Once again, Barry M's comes out on top, and even though i don't completely strike out China Glaze, i shall wait until their is an colour i fall in love with!♥
