Footwear | Skulled

Everything5pounds.com flats £5

The second pair from my Everything5Pounds purchase was this black flats with a gold skull on it. I really love this pair and have yet to wear it. But isn't it just so rad? I just love how simple yet awesome it is! Aha! And to think, this only cost me 500 pennies. That's insane! So so happy with it! You should go check out the site if you're on a hunt for something really cool but can't afford to spend a lot. It's the perfect site for buying Christmas presents too if you're on a really tight budget this year! x

What I Wore | Swallow Dress

(floral headband and dress - Primark, flats - New Look, bag - Ebay)

Here's a very simple and casual outfit I wore a while back. I have on my Primark swallow dress, New Look flats and this floral headband, also from Primark. Yes I know it's almost Winter now, but I have a thing about posting stuff in chronological order. Don't judge me, aha! Hopefully, I catch up soon so I can show more of my recent looks. x

Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm in Mint

Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm in Mint £2.69

With the weather slowly getting colder and colder, it's important to moisturise and keep our skin and lips hydrated. A good brand to use, as I've heard, is Carmex. The only product I've ever tried from them is this one, which is in liquid form kept in a squeeze tube. I got the one in mint, and believe me when I say that it is very minty! It smells good but I'm afraid the taste isn't all that amazing. It has that very artificial and chemical taste to it which I really don't like. However, it does really soothe your dried and chapped lips. It is also very moisturising except you're left with very greasy lips so I really wouldn't suggest using this under other lip products (i.e. lipsticks). I mean, you can get away with it if you prep your lips a few minutes beforehand but I wouldn't apply lipstick straight away after I've used this. 

I think it's a fairly good lip balm but I'm not a big fan of the squeeze tube so I'm probably going to try out the ones in lipstick form next time. Oh and the other thing that I find with this is that, whenever you stop using it, you end up with really chapped lips again. So you'll have to use it constantly, which is kind of annoying but what can you do, eh? Have you tried any Carmex products, what's your thoughts? x
