Motivated, Glamorous & Drive.

The make-up wheel.

Today I tried the make-up wheel in the Lush store in Bristol as well (got the idea from Cille). You have to close your eyes while they spin it and then open your eyes again, choosing the first three colours that pop into your eyes, without thinking about favorite colours. All the colours are different kinds of make-up, liquid eyeliners, lipglosses and liquid eyeshadows.

I chose a shiny sea-blue colour, a baby pink and a purple. Those colours represented different things in my life. The first one was something that I had been today or lately, which was Motivated. I've been really motivated about the EF language course and also lately about finding some work, so that was true.

The next colour I picked was the baby pink, which was Glamorous. I was quite surprised about that one, until she started to explain. It was something that I maybe lacked in my life, and yeah, I am not glamorous at all.

The last colour I picked out was the purple one and that turned out to be the most important to me, which is also why I bought it. It was Drive, which basically is a thing that describes me. I would say that drive describes me, because I will not let anything stand in my way to achieve something. I think stubborn can be kinda connected to this one, at least in my case. And Cille said that was true as well.

Drive is a purple lipgloss with a bit shimmer in it. But it's kinda matte, which I really appreciate. And when I applied it to my lips to try it on, the colour wasn't that strong. I think it suits me really well - and I might give you some pictures another time of me wearing it!

I also bought something else from Lush, but I'm gonna show you that another time as well.

Review: Lime Crime.

So about a week ago I bought Lime Crime's Kaleidoscope Carousel lip gloss over eBay.
I did that because they didn't have any left on the Lime Crime webshop, which I was really bummed about, because I've really wanted it for a while. I love purple - even though I have no idea whether it looks good on me or not - and I love Lime Crime as well, so I really wanted this lip gloss badly.

It was shipped from Canada, and it said it'd take 2-3 weeks to get here, but I got it after only one week! Which is pretty nice, because if it really took 2-3 weeks, I'd have to ask my mom to ship it to me in England, because I'm going to a Halloween even over there, where I really want to wear this lip gloss!

It's a dark purple shade with blue shimmer, but luckily not too much! It suits both pale and tanned people, which is amazing, since I've only seen Jeanette wear it, and she's paler than I am, so I was crossing my fingers!
I don't like the smell of it, though, it smells kind of sticky - even though it's not - and really sweet, but I can learn to live with it. And being drunk in the streets of Exeter while wearing it will only help on me getting used to the smell of it ;)

I love the lip gloss and I really can't wait to buy another one of these! And of course more Lime Crime products. But that has to be when I come home from England and have money again...
