New Favourite Beauty Find.

Hi everyone! I've been reading several blog reviews about VIVO Cosmetics recently so when I went to Tesco a couple of days ago, I couldn't dare pass the stand without having a little browse! After lots of swatching I decided to pick up this lipstick.

I picked up the lipstick in Shade 5 - Pink Pout just because it was probably the most appealing to me as I can't get enough of pink lipsticks at the moment. It retails at £1.99 which is a complete bargain if you ask me! When I first swatched it I did think it was almost identical to MUA's Shade 7 but when I got home I swatched them both and the VIVO lipstick is a little more pink than Shade 7. There's only one thing I don't like about the lipstick and that's the smell. My boyfriend thinks it smells like nuts (hahaha!), it doesn't. It smells just like a bathroom product but I can't think which one. It just smells really erm, soapy! I can't explain but the smell doesn't bother me too much once it's on!

As you can see it's quite a bright pink and that's what I love about it! It also lasts quite long. I went for a pizza hut and could still see it on my lips after eating pizza and drinking lots of Pepsi! Overall i'm well impressed and i'm thinking of buying some more lipsticks even though I don't necessarily need them but they are my favourite things to buy at the moment! Haha.

Have any of you tried any VIVO products? Are there any you'd recommend?

These are a few of my favourite things...

Sorry that I haven't posted in absolutely ages! I had such an urge to blog today and I'm hoping it'll stay with me for a while! I've chosen to show you a few of my favourite products at the moment even though they do change so often!

Vera Wang - Princess

I adore the sickly sweet scent of this perfume. I genuinely believe that all fairytale princesses smell like this. It's absolutely gorgeous and is definitely in my top three perfumes of all time.

Mac - Saint Germain

I'm always constantly searching to find the perfect pink lipstick and I think that i've found it. I absolutely love the vibrant pink colour and it's staying power. I prefer to dab just a little bit into my lips instead of layering it because it can look a bit too OTT. Also, it smells just like candy floss. Definite winner!

Estee Lauder Double Wear - in Wheat

I wasn't sure that I could justify buying £26 worth of foundation but it was my Birthday and everybody needs a treat on their birthday! I'm so happy that I did buy it because I use this every single day and I only need to use a little bit for excellent coverage whereas with my Revlon Photo Ready, I was using three layers a time! I did go to the counter to get matched when I was all fake tanned up though so it is a little bit orange when i'm not wearing fake tan. 

Batiste Dry Shampoo - XXL Volume

I really love the volume this dry shampoo creates and I'd say that it's my favourite dry shampoo of Batiste's whole range. I advise not to put too much on though otherwise your hair might look a little bit grey and it could make it feel rock hard! OOPS! 

Tantrum - Detangling Spray

My hair knots like there's no tomorrow. It causes me so much pain everyday when I brush it and this spray just makes it a little bit more manageable. It smells so gorgeous too, like grapes! I'm aware it's for children but anything that can detangle my unruly hair has a place close to my heart. It only cost about £3 from Tesco too! 

St Moriz - Tanning Lotion

This is by far my favourite St Moriz product! It's such a dream to rub in, leaves you with no streaks at all and seems to last a lot longer for me than the regular mousse and mist. It's lighter when you first apply it than the mousse but the developed colour is noticeably darker. At £2.99 it's irresistible and you can afford to buy it again and again.

I hope you enjoyed my post!  Have you tried any of the above products? How would you rate them?
