gorgeous things i wants! ❤



















just a couple of things i am loving on asos.com❤ if you would like to know anything about these items/costs/brands etc please comment or email me :) xoxo

a lush review❤ cosmetic lad moistuiriser.


okaay.. so you might be thinking skincare for the BOYS?! but india.. you're a girl? yup ahaha:) i tried this moisturiser using a sample of it that my brother had and wasn't using. i'd read it smells like chocolate orange(which yes, yes it does. with a hint of vanilla too) and couldn't help nabbing the unused sample. i soon fell in love with this! its a really light moisturiser that is perfect for younger skin and people who don't want something quite heavy. i use this before i do my makeup every morning and if my skin is feeling a little bit dry at night i'll pop it on then too. its quite cheap at around £10 and it lasts ages too. here's what lush say -


"Moisturiser, after-sun, shaving balm and hair cream for men. And girls, if they're so inclined. Cosmetic Lad is a calming moisturiser for after shaving; it also works as aftersun cream and hair cream. It has soothing aloe vera and linseed, antioxidant wheatgrass and lavender honey water to calm irritations."

this product is fab for dry skin too. so overall, i highly recommend this moisturiser and would definately repurchase. great for both men and women.

love india xox
face of the day ❤

today i used urban decay makeup to make this neutral sparkly and slighty wet/metallic look. i really like it. i'm using snatch all over the lid, toasted in the outer corner and smog in the crease. i am using avon supershock mascara and i absolutely adore it! lovely great long lashes. here are some piccies...



in this pic you can see the slight wet / metallic-ness of this look. lolz, the line looks really harsh where the shadow is but it's not. i'll try and blend it a bit better on the crease next time. aaaah my eyebrows need doing again! : look at them! eeep!






so here's a really blurry pic of the palette i used. it's a great palette. i use the first colour on the top row (snatch) and the last two on the bottom row (smog and then toasted). next time i might add a pop of colour underneath the look on the waterline or something using one of the bright colours?



this was a reaaaaaallly quick (under 2 mins) look and really simple. i love it. i think will do more fotd's doing different looks. hope you enjoyed xox

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaul! ❤

so today i went in town and did a bit o' shopping. here's what i got..



So first of all I went to Claire's. Look at these precious earrings! And look at the prices! They are 100% a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e! I love them. They look so cute on.

Ahhhh these owlies are my favourite! They twinkle in the sunshine too which makes them extra cute. I mean how much cuter can you get! I love owls :)

Next off I went to Boots (for first two products left & middle) and TKMaxx for the lipgloss on the right of the pic. Look what I found in Boots!! SOFTLIPS! After hearing the amazing JuicyStar07 rave about SoftLips I was determined to buy some and ship it over to the UK. Well well well, I found it (accidentially)! I went down the wrong aisle and there it was. I chose French Vanilla. I'll have a review soon, where I'll rave about it even more. It's so addicting to put on hehehe! And next of all I got the well talked about Apple Blossom lipstick, by Natural Collection. It is the perfect nude-pink-peach and a great price too. I love it. Then on the right I have Lizzie's Juice Boost lipgloss, in the perfect summer coral shade. I'm not sure what the shade is but it's lovely.

The SoftLips is just a plain see-through colour. I love it!

Here is a discracefully bad swatch of the lipgloss. I had such bad lighting! I'll try and get a better one.

Here is another one of my terrible swatches hahaha. This is so bad to swatch! I just can't get it. I'll try harder hehe!

Then I popped into one of my most favouritest shops ever, Lush. They know me really well hah! Everyone says hi and it's lovely. Lush have such amazing staff and customer care. This is their brand-spanking-new soap, called Summer Pudding. I'll be doing a review on this too. It's an amazing cherry and almond smell. It's really strong in each smell. I absolutely adore it! All I can say is its Lush's Christmas scent Snowcake plus a black cherry gelato. YUM. It's £2.95 per 100g and absolutely amazing. I cut mine up so it lasts longer.

Next and finally I went to Topshop. I was browsing their fantastic sale and came across the makeup. I was looking around and then I saw their new socks were on sale. I had wanted to buy a pair or two of these and I'm glad I waited! They were originally £3 each or 3 for £7. I got these for... *drumroll please* £1 each! I was completely shell-shocked and I frantically chose my top four (I only had £4 left hahah..). These were them. I just couldn't believe my luck! They were awesome. They're so comfy and cosy, I suggest you check them out in your local store.

I'm wearing these at the moment. Too cute! I love the little teddies. My favourite pair I think.

The incredible price tag!

Thank you so much for reading. Please comment, follow and recommend!
