Hi everyone! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! My weekend involved relaxing, partying and lazing about!

Lil Miss Organised: Makeup storage *

Since starting my new job, I've barely had any time to get dressed up in the morning! I'm always looking for ways to organise my room in order to make my life easier! When I first started blogging, I was buying lots of products, and building a massive collection. As time has gone by, I've started to cut down on the number of products I buy and actually wear and appreciate them.

I went to Primark last week, and found this beauty for a mere £5! It's perfect for storing my everyday makeup! It even blends in well with the decor of my bedroom.
The bag
The detailing
The makeup
I store all of my everyday makeup in here. The rest of my makeup goes in a massive box with lots of drawers (I will be blogging about that in the future). I love how this bag opens up at the top, which allows for easy access! 

How do you store your makeup?

Lil Miss Greasy: Batiste dry shampoo does it again!

So Batiste have done it again, and come out with a few more dry shampoos! The two new additions are called: Paisley and Graffiti.


Paisley and Graffiti


Out of the two, Paisley is my favourite, because it has top notes of: Grapefruit,Lime and Cassis, middle notes of: Jasmine, Rose,Apple,Raspberry and Patchouli and base notes of Musk, Caramel and Vanilla (these are my favourite scents) 

Graffiti on the other hand has top notes of: Apple, wild berry, grape and citrus. It has middle notes of Jasmine, Lily and Iris and base notes of Musk, Coconut, Sandalwood and Cedar.

What I've noticed about these new bottles is that the scent lingers for longer! Whenever I use dry shampoo, I always use it the night before (you can also use it for a Halloween party) and I blow dry my hair on the cool setting in the morning to remove any residue! It usually works a treat!

These cost £2.99 each and are exclusive to Boots :) 

Batiste have also come out with a limited edition trio (containing Mamba, Savannah and Wild)- which would make a fabulous stocking filler! 


These are very convenient because of their size, especially for me because I travel a lot!

This limited edition pack costs £4.99 and is available at Boots :)
