This Week I'm Loving... #6

Pinterest
Okay..... I'm officially converted to Pinterest! (Or as my mum likes to say "Pin-Interest") I've probably had this social media account for years but have never caught the pinning bug..... Until last week! I can't stop, I won't stop! It started when I started looking at tattoo inspiration and  ideas that was it! I could spend hours on this site!! My username is   KirstieLouiseS - here's my account! 

Jerseylicious
This show is awesome. How have I never watched it properly before? I know it's been out for years and yes I'd heard of it but after stumbling across it on ITVBe one lunchtime I have been trying to watch it every weekday when I pop home from work! 
I need them all on DVD - ASAP. (I like Tracy AND Olivia .... Is that okay?)

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick - Nude-ist
You may have seen this in my recent boots haul! I had been eyeing up this shade for a while and was super happy to finally bring it home last week! I have been wearing it constantly, it is a gorgeous everyday colour and it lasts for hours and hours! The only thing I'm not a fan of is the scent.... It is horrible! 

Sia - 1000 Forms Of Fear
I loved Chandelier when it came out and downloaded it immediately. After watching lots of Dance Moms again recently it reminded me to have a little listen of Sia's album - 1000 Forms Of Fear! I have been listening to it on YouTube and have fallen in love! It's really not my usual style of music but I've been really enjoying it - Fire and Gasoline is my favourite! 

Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
Yes, like every other beauty blogger I ran and grabbed Elle magazine as soon as if was released this month! Free make-up is always a bonus... free Benefit make-up is even better and free brand new Benefit make-up is the best! I have been loving this little tester and I definitely think it will be something I'll be investing in once it is released properly!

Fishtail plaits
I have finally mastered the art of a fishtail plait! I am so happy my hair is finally at a good length that I can wear a fishtail and be excited about it!

Bath & Body Works Sweet Pea Hand Cream 
My hands have been seriously suffering these last few weeks and this has been my go-to hand cream! It really helps to soothe and hydrate my poor dry hands and smells amazing at the same time! It's rich and creamy without being greasy - I just wish it was easier to be able to get some more!

New Look Lace Up Black Boots
I bought these back in November in the sale and over the past few weeks I have been wearing them alot! They are so so comfy and make my feel a little bit glammer when I'm dressed in casual clothing!

Warburtons Crumpets
These with marmite = the greatest winter breakfast.

10 Exciting New Beauty Releases

There's nothing that gets me more excited than new products! When I see adverts and sneak peeks of new beauty stuff about the hit the shops and web 9 times out of 10 it instantly goes straight to the top of my wishlist!
This month I've been seeing and hearing about ALOT of new things that are either about to be released or have just been released! 
Here are my 10 most wanted!

Barry M Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit 
Now annoyingly enough there isn't any stock images of this online yet but I have seen a few blog posts on it already! (Really Ree has a lovely one)! I love contouring kits, my sleek one is definitely the best high street branded kit I have found so far so I'm looking forward to trying out something along the same price range!

Make-Up Revolution Brushes
This brand is awesome, their bargain prices and amazing quality has me going back to them time and time again! And now they have released make-up brushes!!! The prices are tiny compared to every other brush out there and if they are anything like the other products they have, these are going to be a major hit!

Taylor Swift Incredible Things Perfume
YAY!! My favourite lady is releasing another perfume! Yes, I'm one of those fans who would buy it before even smelling it! I've liked everything she's released so far though so I'm sure I'll like this one too! I love the name too, Blank Space is one of my fav songs from 1989!

Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
A mascara made for short, stumpy lashes? Apparently so! My lashes are total cr*p and I've tried sooooo many mascara over the years - I'm sure it won't long til' this newbie from Benefit is in my make-up bag being tested!

Rimmel Lasting Finish Primer
Primers are something I love trying out! Other products, like foundation, I know what I like and I stick to them, but with primers even though I have my favs I'm always up for trying new ones! Rimmel is probably my favourite high street brand and I'm always intrigued by their new releases, I like their other primer (forgive me I've forgotten the name) so I think I'll be giving this a go!

Ultimate Blends Honey Treasures Collection
Again, this is so new that I can't seem to find a damn photo of the stuff! As far as I know it will be available from tomorrow (Wed 21st Jan) - I've seen it already and it all looks fab! A honey infused shampoo, conditioner, treatment and serum all priced under £5 - amazing right? The Ultimate Blends collections from Garnier have gone down a storm since they were released and I bet this one is another best seller!

Revlon Photoready Anti-Shine Balm
Revlon is a brand that I will hold my hands up and say I don't own alot of. That is noway a reflection on how I feel about them, as I actually really do like their products! This stuff looks awesome - I'm always paranoid that I'm as shiny as a disco ball and this priming product sounds like the perfect cure.

Jimmy Choo Blossom Perfume
New perfumes excite me! This sounds like it's going to be a gorgeous fresh spring scent from Jimmy and I cannot wait to get a tester.

Aussie Body Wash
Ummmmm, yes that's right Aussie have bought out body washes!!! For all of us that love Aussie's haircare and have been using it for years the day has finally arrived where the rest of our bodies can also smell amazing! You should be able to see these in stores now!

Mac Cinderella Collection
Last but not least this is the stuff I am obviously most excited about! Mac + Disney = I need this in my life! For once the collection doesn't look totally unwearble - sometimes I love the idea of investing in some mac limited edition bits but then realise I'd probably never actually use them! These products look right up my street - pretty pinks and neutrals, I'm praying I can get my hands on it all!
