Just a quick one before i travel half way across the country to go home for the weekend again. I've been really really unwell the last couple of days. ovaries are nothing but hassle when it comes to me. I'm sick to death of polycystic ovarian syndrome and the hold it has over my life. On a brighter note I feel I've really developed a routine in my day to day face. I've finally settled on regular products and I'm more than happy with their results.

 What are you doing this weekend?

Clinique : Chubby Stick in 'Pudgey Peony' review

'Pudgey Peony' Chubby Stick - £16

 This was the other product I was speaking about in my last post. Never have I ever had my expectations blown by a product so highly. I brought this lipstick on a whim really. I'd seen ALOT of advertisement and honestly? I was swept up in the colour choice and the cute name and the general aesthetic qualities of the product (naughty I know!)When my lovely boyfriend asked me if I would like one I snapped up the chance. Initially I wanted 'Curvy candy' but it was sold out in Oxford street when I was there, However 'Pudgey Peony' has NOT disappointed. On first judgement I thought the sticks would be waxy and dull in colour - but I couldn't be more wrong. Clinique boasts of 'do-gooders' in the product such as mango and shea butter which is an obvious bonus, when applying the product glided on my lips and I was really surprised with just how much colour showed up after a few swipes its a hot, popping pink with a blue undertone however I don't see any neon tones in this - which is good for me. The formula is unbelievably moisturising and comfortable to wear - as in I don't think I own any product which has the same quality, no waxy traits and no sticky-ness like a lipgloss would create, perfect for girls who suffer from cracked lips or like a shine in their lip colour. This really is a simply a great all rounder, perfect for day time wear and an alternative to a matte lip on a night out. I'm not usually a big spender when it comes to lipstick - Barry M till I die! - but I for one will 100% be purchasing some more of these little beauties!

 Have you tried the chubby sticks yet? Will you now?
