Contact Lenses Reviews



I finally got some contact lenses. I have never tried contacts lenses before and was super excited. I picked the most natural kind that I could find (you know me, I'm a natural kind of gal!)

I got them from http://www.pinkyparadise.com/ They have a huge collection of contacts lenses as well as lashes and BB cream. Their tag link is "your eye make-up one-stop online beauty store"

They also gave me a coupon code, Use the code - 
 "TheMakeupChair" 
and receive a cute animal lens case and free gift.
What I received: Animal contact lenses case (little orange piggy) Cute free gift (velcro hair grips)  The contacts wrapped up.


I didn't get these as prescription lenses even though I wear glasses I would only get my prescription at my opticians. 
Caution Notes:
You are best advised to consult your eye doctor before wearing any contact lens. It is your responsibilities to minimize the risk of wearing lenses. Kindly please read the wear & care guide carefully to ensure proper handling of lenses (which is provided in the website). The rule of thumb for your eye safety is, if you experience any discomfort, please remove the lens immediately.

Here is the link to the wear and care guide - http://www.pinkyparadise.com/index.asp?p=/static/Wear-n-Care-Guide.html


Its important to use multi-purpose solution to clean the lens case and lenses for before use. 



I love how natural these look, Totally different! Sinead xx

Mascara Review!



Okay ladies I want you to pick which lashes look the best 1 or 2????







I am trying Maybelline - one by one mascara and Maybelline - the colossal cat eye mascara. 

Maybelline - one by one mascara - "Eye Catching volume in one clean sweep! The Lash Catcher Brush has 300 bristles - that's up to 3 bristles per lash. The Lash Catcher brush catches, coats and de-clumps your lashes." (Superdrug Website) No 2.

Maybelline - the colossal cat eye mascara -  "Full volume, flared corners, fiercely colossal lashes...in just one stroke! Discover Maybelline's new Volum' Express Colossal Cat Eyes mascara.
The new feline applicator stylises lashes to a full fan of wild volume – it’s savagely sexy! Fills out lashes up to 9x the volume, with fabulous cat-like corners instantly. Only our lush collagen-enriched formula creates Colossal feline volume in one stroke. The result? Our sexiest, most savage colossal look: The Feline Flares! It’s wild!" (Superdrug Website) No 1.


Personally I like the look of number 2. Its even and more define ;)
The funny thing is the colossal (yellow) is a volume mascara but it actually gives just way more length then anything else. However it clumpy and wet and I actually hate it, very annoyed because I love "One by One" and I am running low on it and I just wasted my money on the new colossal.
The one by one (red) defines the lashes with a totally natural look, its waterproof even in the shower (seriously) and I love using it!

To use it up I use the yellow and then the red to de-clump and volumize the lashes!

I would love to hear what you think though, so comment below with which one you like, 
                                                                                                                                  Sinead xx

New Hair!!

Dark to Light Brown at last! 



So for the longest time I have wanted lighter hair. I have tried lots of light brown shades but they have always made my hair even darker. (Home dying is a pain but I can't be bothered with salons) 
So I had no choice but to use a blonde hair dye to get the golden brown shade that I have always wanted. 

Nice&Easy Perfect 10


I am not denying it was a risk but luckily it worked out! Super happy with the way it turned out, I actually wouldn’t mind going even lighter one day (we’ll see)

What I used: Nice&Easy Perfect 10 Medium Golden Blonde 8G. 
(I had to use two boxes because I have too much hair!)



I was lucky is didn't turn orange but I picked the darkest of the blonde shades, I did this once before a few years ago and it went orange which totally washed me out, so be warned home dying is tricky!

*Word of warning home dying dark to light can make the hair turn orange so always do a strand test!

Sinead: Shade 03, Treena: Diva Red, Sinead: Shade 01                                                                                                

Kate Moss is celebrating her 10 years as a Rimmel Model by creating a line of long lasting lipstick. I only managed to get 3 of the 7 shades but I love the ones I got! These are highly pigmented shades. However I noticed the shades are similar to some of the moisture renew shades only better!

My favourite is the nude shade - 03 Its the perfect nude! I am in LOVE with it! 

Deep Red Shade, very similar to Diva Red.

Gorgeous Nude, Similar to Nude Delight. I LOVE this!


Wearable deep pink, Great for all ages.


I thought this shade would be similar to 05 but its much lighter.

You can compare this to 01 its less pigmented but very similar.
