Friday Favourites

Blog Love:

• Louise at fashionxox1 has written this awesome post on what lip colours will suit your skintones, with examples to help explain what blue-toned or orange-based reds are (brilliant if you're colour challenged like me!). Just found this blog this week via #bbloggers chat and I'm so glad I did!
• Giorgia at Beautiful With Brains  presents an utter wealth of knowledge from beauty tips to skincare and makeup ingredients (check out her Ingredients A- Z). If you're a chemistry geek like me the latter is so interesting from a sciency perspective, if you're not then hey, it's still good to know what you're putting on your skin right?
• Hannah at Midnight Violets has swatched and reviewed the Undress Me Too palette from MUA, which seems to be their answer to the Naked 2 palette. Wonder if this will be as much of a cult product as the original Undressed became. The colours look lovely either way, especially if you're into neutrals.
• Northern Nails has an amazing new polish from Cirque. That colour is to die for!
• Jen at The Polishaholic has written a really good post on taking and editing photos. It's mainly for nails (like her blog!) but I've been obsessed with trying to improve my photography lately. Maybe it'll pay off soon?
• Hanna at Makeup by Hanna is a recent discovery and just so talented and imaginative. I am in awe. I found her blog via Aqueela's weekly makeup challenge

Other Things I've Been Loving

• This is hilarious, and kind of true
• Double XP is awesome, they had a funny strip about Dead Space and the nature of video game creation as of late.
• MyMad Fat Diary ended this week. I am gutted, I really enjoyed it.
• My Geek Chic and Fyrinnae orders arriving. Still need to swatch the Fyrinnae but hopefully I'll have Geek Chic up soon :)

What things have you been loving this week? And did anyone else watch My Mad Fat Diary? Hope you all have a wonderful weekend :)
