I thought I'll make a change and talk about lipstick. These beauties was pressies from Christmas last year,  thank you Mum. I know what you thinking why does the name seem familiar, well that's because it's the singer, songs like 'Shoulda Woulda Coulda' loved that song, 'Come As You Are' if you don't know her, google it.

Never knew Beverley Knight has a cosmetics range, it was delightful surprise, as to be honest I don't know many ethnic cosmetics besides the US brands like Iman etc. So to have a Brit even more better, as it's home turf. The lipsticks is what it says on the tin (that being the little box of course), intense indeed it is. Very moisturising and creamy, vibrant, don't need lip gloss or anything. However I still always use lip balm etc as my skin is generally dry. The longevity of it well let's put it this way been out all day, had dinner and everything still had full lippy on, granted the colour wasn't as vibrant like from the start, but I didn't feel the need to touch up (that sounds wrong but you know what I mean). Would say be careful on how you apply it because you may want to mute the colour depending on your mood or skin tone or how brave you are with colour or the time day/night.

The only sad thing is not sure if this brand still exists, however I know if you look on Amazon click here you'll be able to buy it. Such a shame it never got the attention it deserved.

Beautiful Miss Branberry Cross

Loved the burlesque acts that performed Miss Rubyyy Jones and Miss Branberry Cross omg I loved it, first time seeing burlesque in the flesh, made me want to see another even more, as it's something I've always wanted to see, but never have followed through. So for sure it's on my to do list now, go watch a show.

That hosted this event, and worked their bums off, great turn out, I was thankful for the invite, and I do have my eye on Rockily Roulette Red Lipstick, on my wish list. Met some lovely ladies. Was introduced more into the vintage fashion, which I must say ladies looked HOT!!!

Lot's of things was happening, had little stands, crafts table, bingo. It was very busy, it over whelmed me how many people was there, I hardly if ever go out to social events, so for me I was taken back, with my illness it's limited me, so I was glad I could actually attend, my first ever evening event travelling on my own since being ill 5+ years, so seriously for me it was emotional growth, as well as physical thing. Even writing this has made me cry because I never thought I would get to this point, so long I've been stuck, half the time in hospital. So it's journey, one that shall continue.....

PS- fingers cross I get to go to more events (if I do ever get invited lol)
