I know this may be a little late to post but I have officially bought all the shades of Kylie's Lipkit I want (unless she brings out another fab colour).



I want to do the cliché thing of talking you through how I got my hands on these must-haves.
 The first two, I bought back in February was just luck. I was on the bus coming back from work and my friend Keira had texted me saying they were sold out. I clicked on the page just to make sure as I always failed at timings before, luckily they were still on sale so I popped Posie K and Koko K in my basket. I was super excited as the transaction went through and that was that. About three weeks later, my order was delivered with no issue. I have worn Koko K every time I have gone out.

The second time when I tried to get my hands on more, was when her glosses came out. I put a few in my basket and within 30 seconds of trying to finish it, it told me it sold out. I wasn't too disappointed but it was just annoying!

Then a few weeks ago I finally found out the time of when they went on sale like I said I have worn Koko K so much I was getting kind of bored. So I set my alarm and stayed up to get them. I live in the UK so I stayed up until 11, I know 11 big wows, But I am just a granny and I am normally tucked into bed at 10! 
Anyway, 11 came and with great anticipation, I added two to my basket. I purchased  Exposed and Candy K. Placed the order and I have been tracking them for OVER two weeks. Although it took two days to get to London from Los Angeles, it took over two weeks to finally arrive. Unfortunately, this time,  I had a £16 handling fee. I wasn't that bothered as the last time I didn't but it still sucks to pay.

I think my collection is just the perfect set of nudes and pinks.
Each kit, as you will know, comes with a lip liner, the lip liners apply very smoothly as they have a creamy texture. Some people love that but as I have mentioned I have quite small lips so I find drawing or filling my lips easier with Mac liners, which are harder. They are great products and give great colour. 


Left to Right; Posie K, this colour was a lot darker than I thought it was going to be. I think it is to do with my skin colour, I have pale skin so it stands out more. I also find it harder to wear because of that,  as you can see where I filled in my lips. If I have fake tan on I think I can pull it off.

Koko K;  If you Follow me on Instagram then you'll see that every 'selfie' that I take I hashtag 'Koko K'. It has worked its way to my favourite ever lip product, to the point it's getting boring. I still adore the colour, and I feel I will definitely be repurchasing.

Candy K; This shade was always on my next shade to buy list, as you can see it is a shade darker than Koko but lighter than Posie. I am excited to wear this out, I think it is a super wearable everyday colour.

Exposed; When Kylie brought out this shade I had to get it, it seemed like the perfect nude.
However, now that I own it I feel it is a lot more orangy than I first thought. I am still excited to wear this, but it seems like a different colour on my skin.
I like the colour of this liner more than I do the Lipstick, which I suppose isn't a bad thing.



 Overall, I love the kits. The consistency, I find, is great, maybe a little bit drying for the lips. However, I lick my lips a lot, so something that holds onto to my lips is great. The colour is highly pigmented and like I said have a great staying power.
Since the first order I placed they have changed the brush, it is a lot smaller than it was before. For me, it doesn't matter but I know some people had complained. 
Price wise, I think it is great, you are getting a liner and lipstick for somewhere around £33 with shipping and if you get it, the handling free. 
Do I think people buy it because it's Kylie Jenner, YES 100%, do I think there are dupes out there, yes? But I think for what it is, they are fab products! 

Let me know if you have bought any and what was your experience? 
What is your favourite shade?

Hello Summer 2016, the time has come again to update my dresser to something more summery! I posted a Summer Dresser tour last August and I really liked how it turned out so after getting my dresser how I want it I thought I would do an updated 2016 version! 




It has taken me several attempts to get all my polaroids the way I like them, but I think I finally love how they look! Although some parts are squint, I think it adds to the vibe I wanted to go for.
They all are actually in date order of when I took them, bottom 2014 all the way to March 2016.
I have still to put my Malta Polaroids up!

Books -'Demi Lovato-Staying Strong'
'Emma Farrarons-The Mindfulness Colouring Book'
'Barbara Ann Kipfer-14,000 To Be Happy About'
The books I kept on my dresser are actually just to add height!
'Butterfly Jewellery Holder - Christmas Gift'
I have filled up this cute jewellery stand with all my favourite pieces I wear everyday! 
'Eiffel Tower Ring Holder- Bed, Bath and Beyond'
Again I filled this with my favourite rings, I just think this is the cutest thing ever!
'Cinderella Glass Slipper -Disneyland Paris'
I adore after this slipper on my dresser, I got it for my 16th Birthday and I just love it!
'Lots Of Love Plaque - Francesca's'
This had to make a comeback, the colours are adorable and I live the saying! (haul here)
'Flowers-Tiger' 
Artificial Flowers are just so easy to maintain, there is no effort and yet the look so pretty! 


'Buddha- HomeSense' (Haul Here)
I wanted to add a few new pieces of decor in my room so after going through a big boho obsessed I bought this buddha! I think it works great in my room!
'Calm - Michael Action Smith'
I actually added this for height and to add to the decor but I have replaced it and Im going to start reading this book!
'Fools Gold' 
I actually found this in my room and I thought that it would go with the theme, It was bought at a mining museum when I was younger.


'Artificial Plants - HomeSense'
Checking PInterest for inspiration for my room I was always seeing plants, so I bought these to brighten my room!
'Copper E - Oliver Bonas'
This HAS to make a comeback, it is probably my favourite thing on my dresser!
'Coral Reef - Maya Beach' 
My friend Rowan actually brought me this back from Thailand so I have to feature it in my post!


'Perfume Holder - Cath Kidston'
I actually bought this a while back when my room was all Cath Kinston, its great to keep my all my perfume in, to keep it nice and tidy!
Back Row is all My Pink/Victoria Secret Body Mist
Middle I have 'Blush', 'Amerige by Givenchy' 'Daisy by Marc Jacobs', 'Chance Chanel',' One Moment One Direction' and a 'Floral one from Marks and Spencer' 
Bottam has my mini YSL perfume and my Zoella Sweet Inspirations Body Mist!

This time I have went with a more simple approach than last year, any questions just ask?
Have a great day!
Love Emma

I have never been more excited about on of Zoe's new beauty range, I think it is mostly to do with the colour scheme of the whole thing. She has used some of my favourites colour combination so it would be rude not to support Zoe's new products. 
As an extra bonus post, as I am too excited, I thought I would share what I ordered. 




 The first item that I was most excited about is the 'Life is Sweet Beauty Bag'. 
I am currently saving for Summer 2017 and I've been needing somewhere to save the cash, I thought this bag would be perfect. 
I adore the frill round the edge of the bag and I think it just adds a cute touch. I also love the colour, I am massive pastel lover so this pastel blue is just too cute. 
The quote on the front is a bonus and I hope it will motivate me to save my money.

Next up is the Sweet Inspirations Body Mist. I haven't tried any of Zoe's body mists but with the new range and new scent I thought I would give it a go. 
First of all, the bottle itself is so pretty, I love the palm patterns that you can see through the bottle,  and,  like the rest of the collection the colours are gorgeous. It will fit perfectly with my dresser!
I think Zoe describes the scent well in her video but to me in smells like summer. 
Its a lovely sweet fresh scent, It reminds me a lot of sugared almonds which I used to love! The smell lasted a long time and I could smell it throughout the day! 

 The Bath Latte Bath and Shower Milk was something I really wanted to try, I love a good soak in the bath but I also love a quick shower so its fab that I can use this product in both situations! Its the same scent again so I loveee it!! I will say that for some reason this is my least favourite packaging, maybe because it has no pink in it? But I do love the idea of the milk bottle.
It created a great amount of bubbles for my bath but it also left my skin feeling lovely and soft.

Lastly, is the Sugar Dip Bath Salts, this is the only product I actually haven't tried yet. I am excited to use this as some days,  I don't want to have a bath with all the bubbles and baths bombs but still feel relaxed and clean! These bath salts just make the bath smell nice which I think will be perfect for these days!  I want to point out I am in love with the packaging, (the colour, the shape, the font) its very pleasing for the eye!!!

A BIG CONGRATS to Zoe and team for the launch of the Sweet Inspirations collection, I am sure it will be a success! At the same time I ordered my third 'Scrubbing Me Softly' Body Scrub as it is my favourite product!

*I have realised that most of the products I linked have actually sold out, I purchased them on FeelUnique but Super Drug may still have some in stock!

Let me know if you have bought anything from the range and what you think of it?
Love Emma
