The Birthday Edit + First Ever MAC Purchase!

Last Friday it was my 17th Birthday! Time flies and I honestly couldn't believe that the year has gone so fast and turning 13 seemed like yesterday. I thought I would take pictures of all my celebrations and a teen tiny haul! Not bragging or showing off, but it has been ages since I have a haul on here!
Outfit + Nails

On the actual friday I was actually at work experience, and decided to go there with this birthday girl badge on that is really cute. The dress I am wearing is from Primark and have fallen in love with because the fit is beautiful as well as the pattern of it, I wore it with some black pumps but think that some heels in either nude or black would look great as well! Then on my nails I had this gorgeous colour on from Rimmel; Breakfast in Bed by Rita Ora is my go to shade at the moment. 

Haul

The first two things were bought a little earlier than my birthday, as when we went to the Ideal Home Show in Manchester there was a makeup store (Cherry Berry Cosmetics also online) and their prices were a tiny little bit reduced. So I bought a MAC Glaze Lipstick in Hue which is such a gorgeous colour to wear everyday and I now want to buy lots more lipsticks because they look so pretty! I also picked up a MAC Bronzing Powder as I have been on the hunt for a new bronzer for months and when I saw this I didn't even think twice about it.

Then my lovely friends also spoilt me rotten this year! With all these lovely gifts that I have fallen in love with. Aamira bought me a MAC Lip gloss that goes great with my lipstick so that is my new everyday lip combo I can already sense it. Along with that she also bought me a box of chocolates which I gobbled up very quickly as well as the white statement necklace you can see in the 2nd picture, which I already know how to wear and what to wear with. The other necklace was from the work experience placement I was on last week which was very sweet of them, and the perfume is from my brother! The Debenhams gift card which will be spent very quickly is from Nicole as well as a Little Mix cup that I am currently drinking out of as we speak. The candle is a firm favourite in our household as well as that I received an entire pack of stationery from Charlotte the book, notebook, folder and everything to keep me organised for the new school year! 

I feel very lucky to have got all these things and much more which I didn't photograph, thank you all for reading!

Guest Post|Top Summer Lip Products

Hi lovelies, you won't know me yet, or you might; I don't know - but I'm JennieWren3 and I'm guest blogging for Class & Glitter today! I'm going to share with you my top Summer lip products - both high end and drug store. 

First up is the Topshop lipstick in Petal, which is my most wearable lipstick at the minute. It's a pink nude so if you're somebody like me and you rarely wear nude lipsticks then this is a safe one because it's got a great pink tone to it so it's not too scary! I wear this pretty much everyday at the minute, it gives that bit of oomph to a natural look or it tones down the drama if you're wearing a smokey eye. It's quite a creamy texture but becomes matte over time. It's also pretty affordable - £8! 

Next up is the MAC lipstick in Impassioned, which has the amplified finish meaning it's pretty bright! That I can agree with. Impassioned is my go-to Summer bright lipstick, that I usually wear with a nice summery dress or if I'm being pretty dull with my clothing I'll brighten it up with this shade. It's £15. (which kind of annoys me - I remember buying MAC lipsticks for £12 and I thought that was expensive; will they ever stop increasing the prices?!)

Thirdly is the Revlon Matte Balm Crayon in Elusive. I was a little weary of buying this because I'd never really thought much of the crayon lip products but I ended up just picking it up for about £8. I wouldn't recommend this for people with very dry lips (like mine - so why am I recommending it?!) but I would buy it for the minty fragrance it has. It made my lips tingle a little and I find tingling lips something very exciting so obviously this would make my list! The colour is a very natural pink - it's so easy to wear for an everyday look but I wouldn't say it could work that well for an evening look - please correct me if I'm wrong! 

Finally, is a little bit of an odd recommendation - it's just a plain old Nivea Pearly Shine Lip Balm. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a lip balm so much! It gives so much moisture to my lips but it's also got a pale pink tint to it and sparkles so it gives off colour as well as looking after your lips - win, win right? 

What are your Summer must-have lip products? 

Lots of Love

Manomai Cream||Review

A few weeks back I got asked to review this very different and unusual cream Manomai Cream..it came all the way from Thailand and I was really intrigued my the claims and benefits of it as well as the ingredients. To read more about the company and where the idea for this cream from read it here.
To get this cream sent out to you or even me, I had to select my blood type and I didn't know off the top of my head what it was...but then I read the descriptions and found my perfect match..blood type B! Who knew?!

I've been applying this serum for a few weeks on top of my moisturiser and boy have I seen a big difference. All the natural ingredients in this are also very soothing to the skin and have helped to even out the skin tone and kind of helped with acne breakouts. It recommends using it every day and night, which I have been doing but have now switched to only using it at night and found that it helps a lot more.

The formula of this serum is very watery but once on the skin it disappears and is really weird to describe.

Upcoming|| Signature Fragrances

Through out the year I love to switch up and change the fragrances that I use, whether that be a body spray, perfume or even my new found love of fragrance oils. What scent you wear on your body shows who you are, and your personality shines through. Everyone loves different scents and for me I am a lover of all things sweet and floral. Today's upcoming post is all about Signature Fragrances ...

Who are they?

Signature Fragrances is a reformed contemporary fragrance house based in London. We sell unique blends of fragrance oils made from the highest quality of ingredients on the market. Our fragrances are characterised by oriental and contemporary blends found around the world. Due to our penchant love for quality and discovery, we have explicitly allied our fragrances using Michael Edward's popular 'Fragrance wheel', which we use to select the finest fragrances for our customers.

Where can you get them from?

Signature Fragrances will be released in Mid-August and I feel very lucky to have been given a sneaky little peak at them all, and I would like to share them with you! 

I love the smells of all the samples I got in the post and have put them all in my perfume stash, I think that these three fragrances are all perfect for different occasions. Lola for me is perfect for the day time scent and I have honestly fallen in love it, different to anything else I have every found. Oudh Memlaki is a scent not really more me, but for any lovers of spicy scents out there, a little too strong for everyday wear but great for the night time when you really want to make a statement. Lurre is scent that I didn't think I would grow a liking to, but I ended up loving it! This is a much more of a fruitier scent than the other two and they describe it as 'unforgettable' which is definitely right I could smell the scent all day on me!
