I'm back, back again, tell a friend.

Guess who's back with a brand new rap.... er, i mean blog ;)

Eminem aside, I'd like to apologise to myself, and my loyal readers (my mum) for abandoning my site of wordly wonders... I've been busy and thats my only excuse!

Now that I'm a free agent from the never ending years of University, it's that time again where I pick up my pen and start writing... or in this case.. typing.

Today I decided to 'Shop my Stash'. For those of you who don't know, SMS is where you 'shop' through your old make-up that you have forgotten about and see what wonders you can reuse! Theres something exciting about this... unless you don't like make-up then you'll think I'm a little weird.. but nevertheless, I've just got excited about a whole range of things and thought I'd share them with you!

So here we go...


First up is my beloved MAC palette. The third down, second across is Sable eyeshadow and my my my is it good. The texture is buttery, blends well and is pigmented! Woohoo! The single eyeshadow on its own is Benefit's Buckle Bunny, which is an exact dupe, yay!!!

Next is Clinique's blusher in Precious Posy. Buttery in texture again, this blusher is a one-hit-wonder. The subtle gold flecks through it add a bronzing touch of gold to your cheeks and its just generally lovely product to have.

The lipstick standing out is Mac's Girl About Town lipstick. My lovely sister bought me this and loooordy is this nice. The texture is creamy, longlasting, pigmented but also smells amazing. Does anyone else like smelling lipsticks? No? Just me then. Perfect for brightening up a look after work!

The Lancome product is a concealer. Im not a huge fan of heavy bases.. and this concealer is quite thick in consistency, however this bad boy covers everything. and I mean everything. I use it with a tiny brush and dab on where I need it. It doesn't need powdering (but still works with powder), doesn't look cakey and also doesn't crease under the eyes woohoo! A great all-rounder.

The mascara is Mac's 3D Extra Dimension Black Lash and boy is it good. It lasts has a plastic wand and lasts all day, and if you want long, thick, full lashes, then this ones for you. I use this mascara then use a smaller, thinner mascara after such as YSL's Volume Effect Babydoll as it's not great at separating but it does the job!

Just a quickie but thought it would be fun!

Love Ema! xo
