Project 10 Pan Update

So hopefully you will have already read my Project Bathroom Update, but if not you can read it here! This post is going to be my Project 10 Pan update (as the title suggests!)


I am doing much better than I thought I would be! I've hit pan on 4 products and my mascara is getting to the end of it's little life!

So what have I hit pan on.....
E.L.F Complexion Perfection
17 Plum Puff Blusher
Prestige iQuad
Almay Line Smoothing Powder

I am counting the colours in my Prestige iQuad as 4 seperate colours as I don't really use the 2 purples in it. Hopefully the blusher will be the first to go, I have had it for years so it will be good to finally finish it off! 

I am determined to complete this P10P, I have never finished a make up item so it will feel so good when I finally do! 

If you are doing a P10P send me your links and I hope you are doing well!!

My Lipstick Collection and Swatches

Today I thought I would share with you my ever growing collection of lipsticks!


I do have a couple others that I seem to have lost!
Up until about a year ago I was very much a lipgloss girl and thought that lipsticks were for old ladies and owned none. What a difference a year can make! I now have some what of a lipstick obsession. I do still wear my lipglosses now and again but I am now a convert lipstick lover!

The Pinks!
Left to right -
NYX Femme, NYX Jupiter NYX Strawberry Milk, Barry M 100, Rimmel Pink Blush, MUA Shade 4, MAC Viva Glam, MAC Victorian

The Nudes!

Left to right -
Natural Collection Lotus, Natural Collection Apple Blossom, NYX Orange Soda, MAC The Fairie Glen, MAC Peachstock, Barry M 101

And the rest!
Left to right -
Stila Tina, 17 Belle, 17 Cookie, Revlon Plum, NYX Margarita

I also have 17 Beehive which is probably my most used lipstick. I seems to have been swallowed up by the pit that is my bag though!

I have a funny feeling that my little collection will just keep growing and growing!

What are you favourite lipsticks??

I'd Like Some Mint Choc Chip and a Little Parma Violet Please!! NOTD

What with all this good weather we've been having I thought I would have a wee look through my nail polish collection and find something fitting! 
This is what I came up with...... 

I love these colours and I think they go great together!
I have had the polish on for 24 hours now and there has been absolutely no tip wear at all.
I love 17 nail polishes, I think you get great colour pay off and the price is great!

What's In My Make Up Bag

I've seen lots of these on YouTube and on blogs so I thought I would share what's in my make up bag with you!



My make up bag is a pretty boring dusty pink colour, I think it's from Virgin Vie but I can't remember. I got it years a go off of Santa :)


One thing I really like about it though is that it's quite big and you can get a lot in it.


So inside it I've got.....

ELF Complexion Perfection powder
MAC Wintersky Eyeshadow
ELF Eyeshadow Quad
ELF C brush
ELF Blush brush
ELF Complexion brush
Benefit Boi ing concealer
Benefit Erase Paste
Benefit IT Stick
NYC Eyeshadow Duo
MAC Feline Eye Khol
Eyeko Graffiti Liner in black
17 Blusher (I think it's Plum Puff)
Eyeko Blusher
Eyeko Lipgloss in Shoreditch
Maybelline Colossal mascara
Alamy Pressed Powder

Writing that list had just made me realise how I seem to stick to the same brands! I could probably get by without half that stuff in there! I've normally got a couple of lipsticks thrown in too. I tend to put stuff in my make up bag and then just leave it in there even if I'm not using it.

So what's in your make up bag?
Do a response and link me, I love being nosy! :)

NOTD - Collection 2000 + 17

I was in town the other day and got very excited when I went into Boots and the 17 stand finally had there matte top coat! I've been looking for it for ages but every time I was in they never had it so I'm so pleased I've finally managed to get my hands on it.
I decided to team it with Collection 2000's Hot Looks in Vogue which is a gorgeous blue colour.

And this is the results...........


Sorry for the rubbish picture!

NOTD - 17 Tropical Island and a bit of nail art


Excuse the claw like pose I've got going on here but wanted you to be able to see my little attempt at some nail art.

Tropical Island from 17 is a really nice orange colour and you cant see it from the picture but it's got little bits of gold glitter mixed through it. A nice summery colour I think! :)

On my thumb I just put 3 stars out of a pack of those confetti stars that you get. I picked out 2 dark blue stars and a light blue star and just positioned them where I wanted while the polish was still wet.


This look didn't last very long, but that's because I was naughty and picked it all off while I was waiting to do something. Oops!

NOTD - 17 Lasting Fix Mint Choc Chip


I love this colour! I was a little unsure while I was putting it on cause I haven't really worn a colour like this before but I'm so glad I put it on! It's so summery and lovely! This is 3 coats of the colour but I think I might apply another coat on top of this.

Everyone should have this colour in their life!!

NOTD - Inspired by Cat!


I'm loving nail art just now and after seeing Cat's tutorial for glittery leopard print nails I thought I would give it a go! (you can see her post here!)

For the base colour I used 17's Pink Grapefruit, and for the dots I used 17's Sea Breeze and Asda's Lilac. To make the black marks round the dots I took Cat's advice and used an old eyeliner I didn't use, which worked great! For once my unsteady hand came in useful. I applied my No.7 top coat to make sure the eyeliner didn't wash off.

This look was super easy to do and I know it's not great looking but it was my first time trying nail art, so I can only get better!
