To Me, happy results day! Love, Me x

As I already mentioned in a previous post I received good news a couple days ago that I am successfully graduating :) So obviously I needed to reward myself!

I had, yet another, No7 Boots voucher because I'd spent over £5 in their store. So, I was having a nosey around the No7 stand in Boots & came across their summer products; one of which being the nourishing lip shine that I have seen across quite a few blogs. I bought the shade pink (I think they do it in peach too).


I think the packaging is soo pretty!






So, what do I think of this product? 

Well, the foam applicator is quite nice as it applies an even layer across your lips. However, it was really quite difficult to get the first lot of product out & is still a little tough now. I really like the texture of the product. I'm not really sure on how to describe it, but it's a lot thicker than a lip gloss (explains why it's hard to squeeze out!). It feels really moisturising on your lips & isn't too sticky. As for the colour, it isn't too pink so I think it makes quite a nice day time lip product. I think it would also look great for evening wear over the top of a hot pink lippy! 

As well as the lip gloss I also treated myself to pair of cream jeggings from River Island. I wouldn't usually go for trousers this light but I thought they would look nice for the summer, on my hols next month & great on an evening paired with some killer heels! They're quite thin material too, so they won't be unbearable! The have gold detailing; such as the button & pocket zips. They retail at £30 & are also available in a pale pink!
