Since September last year I've really been getting into the gym more and I've been aiming to go three times a week. One of the things putting me off committing to the gym was my insecurity with the way I would look, especially compared to the ultra-buff gym regulars. Finding the perfect gym to suit you is definitely important and probably the biggest reason why I haven't been able to stick at it before, but sometimes, no matter where you're going, if you think you look good, chances are you feel good.
I've taken quite a long break from the blog, but what better way to start writing again than a few lipstick posts. I've talked about two of these lipsticks in my last post, 'The Perfect Pillowtalk Dupe'. Even though I love lipstick and I buy a lot of it, I only tend to wear it on the odd occasion, usually because I can't be bothered with the upkeep - lazy, I know! Either that or when I do a full face of makeup, lipstick can look a little bit much with everything else so I just opt for some lipbalm.
The new Charlotte Tilbury lipstick launches have only been out a few weeks and as soon as I saw them I fell for the hype. I've never tried 'Pillowtalk' lip liner but I'm aware of its cult following, so I decided to pick up the lipstick. Granted, these are definitely not the cheapest lipsticks on the market but when it comes to Charlotte Tilbury you can't really go wrong.
These few MAC products are my must-haves that I just can't live without. I've used most of these for months, even years and they're ultimate staples in my makeup routine. There's a good mix of products for your base, eyes, lips and even a couple of my favourite brushes - I could happily use only MAC for my complete routine. So let's start with the base...
This body lotion is like gold dust! I am a serious fake tan novice, and the thought of turning orange puts me off trying new stuff. But after hearing I Covet Thee rave about this I was up for giving it a go. I've tried one other product from St Tropez in the past, the In-Shower Gradual Tan (can you tell I'm all about that gradual tan) and I had mixed feelings. This on the other hand, I am totally in love with.
