Up The Amp.

Hey :) 

So I know I haven't posted in a while again, I've been celebrating my 21st birthday and as it was my 21st I had a birthday month which ended Sunday 🙈

As I mentioned in my 'Technical Glitches' post I recently got a new MAC lipstick the shade of it is 'Up The Amp'. I absolutely love the colour of this lipstick, I went to MAC and told them I wanted a purple lipstick and the girls in there were lovely they offered me a consultation to decide which colour was best for my skin and then let me apply the lipsticks so I could see which I preferred. 

After trying on about 5-6 different shades of lipstick I eventually chose Up The Amp. The lipstick itself looks a bit daring but I think the shade goes with my skin tone really well. I have worn the lipstick numerous times now and find its lasts hours on end, it has more of a matte finish apposed to the glossy one most lipsticks have so if you want to create a glossy finish I suggest you put some lip balm on before applying the lipstick. This also gives you a smoother look. 



As mentioned the lipstick does look dark before you put it on, as you can see in the photo above. 

However, when the lipstick is applied it doesn't look as dark as you think. 

You can buy the lipstick for £15.50 from any MAC counter or online at www.maccosmetics.co.uk

Mr.Blanc Review.

Hey Guys 

So as mentioned previously I am working with Mr.Blanc to review their teeth whitening strips, this is my review. (hopefully this post will work!)

As I work in a dentist I was a bit skeptical as to whether these would work but I was amazed with the results, it works so well and instantly. You can see your teeth getting whiter when the strips are on your teeth, this for me is a good thing as you know you haven't wasted your money and obviously the whitening isn't permanent but even if you get your teeth whitened professionally you have to top it up regularly. 

This is a great way to get pearly white teeth especially if you're on a budget, want quick results or if you just want to feel good about yourself. I saw a quote at work the other day which was 
"The shortest distance between two people is a smile." I really like this quote as anything can happen when you smile at someone whether it just makes them feel a little bit better if they're having a bad day or something more could happen from it. 

If like your teeth you're not going to want to hide your smile so having white teeth is an added bonus for those of you who like your teeth, those of you that don't Mr.Blanc could give you a new found confidence! 

When I started Mr.Blanc teeth whitening strips I put the strip of whiteness up against my teeth to see where mine would be on the chart and they were a 5, when I finished my teeth were a 2 which to me was perfect I didn't want them stupidly white. Also the good thing about Mr.Blanc is that yes they are a 2 week supply(well the ones I had) but if you get to the stage of whitening where you are happy and you haven't used all the strips you can stop using them and use them again when you need them. They do say on the packet to use them everyday for 2 weeks but if you're happy with the results theres nothing stopping you from using it how you want. 

I have a photo which I took when the strips were on my teeth and another when I had removed the strips. 



The top photo is the one where the strips are on my teeth, as you can see they are barely noticeable which is great. The bottom photo is once I took them off, they looked much whiter and I was really happy with the results!

After you remove the strips quite a lot of the gel from the strips tends to get left on your teeth so I always brushed my teeth afterwards to ensure I got rid of all the gel. It really helped, plus it didn't taste too nice either haha. 

I would definitely go and buy yourself some Mr.Blanc whitening strips if I were you! Prices start from as little as £24.99 and go up to £58.99. You can buy them online and they post worldwide all you need to do is go to their website

Technical glitches

Hey Guys, 

I recently downloaded the blogger app and I tried to post numerous times using it however none of them seem to be showing up with any content included. So I'm really sorry about that as I have actually been writing blogs its just not been showing up! 

Okay so I will be re-writing the blogs I thought I had posted and a new one too so there will be a few for you to read :) 

There will be the review on Mr. Blanc, one just about why I haven't been posting properly in a while and one about my new MAC lipstick I love. 

I hope you enjoy reading them, let me know what you think!

Mr.Blanc 2

Hey guys!

So I mentioned in the last post that I am going to be working with Mr.Blanc I have now received the whitening strips and have used them twice they have worked both times and made my teeth a shade whiter already! I haven't used them everyday, mainly as I've been working and I had a hangover, however both times I've used them I've noticed a difference straight away.

I'm going to write a proper blog post on them when I have used them all and corresponded with the team at Mr.Blanc.

Also I am going to Turkey on 25th April for a week so I will try and do a post before I go :) 

If you wanna follow Mr.Blanc on Instagram they put up regular posts on people's progress...this is their instagram page featuring me haha

Miss Hampshire 2015

Hey! :) 

This is just a quick blog to ask you to check out my sisters blog, she recently competed in the Miss Hampshire final unfortunately she didn't win however she did get placed in the top 7! She done really well considering it was her first year competing they barely make the final.

She is going in for it again next year and has to write a blog explaining what she has done this year, what she is planning on doing next year and about her experience throughout it all so I'd really appreciate it if you kept an eye out for her blog too :)

Have a good week :)

Scandaleyes

Hey! 

So first off I GOT THE JOB! I'm so happy although the hours are killing me at the moment I've been working everyday for over a week and I can't wait until Tuesday when its my day off and I'm going for a spa day so can't wait to get pampered with my best friend 👯 

Anyway this week I thought I would do my blog about Rimmel London's Scandaleyes Rockin' Curves Mascara. My friend from work always looks like she wears falsies and I've always been envious of her lashes, we went on a girls night out a couple of weeks ago and I used her mascara.

I fell in love and went to get myself one, this is one of my best purchases in a while! The brush gives your lashes volume and lifts, it is a broken heart shaped wand so it can get to the very bottom of your lash line and lifts them right up! 

A thing I like about when you search for this product is if you go on the Rimmel London website you can 'Try it on' where you can either upload a photo of yourself to see what the mascara will look like on you before you buy it or you can put it onto one of the models. This is a great way to see if you like it before you go out and buy it. 

You can buy Scandaleyes or any other Rimmel London products from the following:
-Superdrug. (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-Boots. (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-ASOS. (Scandaleyes -£7.49)
-Feelunique.com (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-Tesco. (Scandaleyes -from £3.49)
-Very.co.uk (Scandaleyes -£7.00)
-Wilko.com (Scandaleyes -£4.98)

Let me know if you have tried any of the products I have written about and what you think! ☺️

Also don't forget you can follow me on twitter @LydiaCoopster and on Instagram @Coopsterrr 

Hope you've had a good few weeks!
