GLOSSIER, LASH SLICK

I have to mention my new favourite mascara which is, of course, the Glossier Lash Slick. As soon as this came out I had to try it and my lovely friend Jess kindly bought this for me for my birthday. It’s such a nice mascara, I’m usually not a fan of plastic brushes but I do love this brush it picks up every lash. It is a very natural mascara and more of a lengthening mascara rather than volume. But Glossier is all about natural makeup and personally, I prefer a more natural mascara as I wear a lot of eyeliner so don’t need a huge amount of mascara. I love this product and I haven’t even mentioned the packaging, of course, it’s pink and beautiful. I will definitely be repurchasing this and I’m sure everyone else will be too!

I'M FEELING 22...

It’s finally my favourite time of year…MY BIRTHDAY! I hate to say it but I'm 22 today, it’s not that old yes, however, when you put in context of only being in my second year of uni it’s definitely older than I’d like to be. But no doom and gloom and thinking of age on my birthday, I plan to spend the day recovering from the world’s worst hangover and eating my weight in cake as well as opening presents of course. Look out for a ‘what I got for my Birthday’ because I love sharing what I got and think they’re handy if it’s a friends birthday and you’re looking for ideas or just want to treat yourself!

SKETCH, LONDON

If you follow me on Instagram - if you don’t it’s _caitdavies - you might have seen I went to Sketch London a few weeks back, I mean how could you have not with the amount of Sketch spam thats on there! Of course I had to do a post on my wonderful experience there, we went for dinner in the Gallery Room aka the beautiful pink room filled with David Shrigley’s lovely illustrations. I would happily move into Sketch, it’s just so perfect and I was so content sat in my scalloped, pink velvet chair eating what must be the poshest fish and chips ever with my ‘sketchup’. Of course by now you should all know it’s a very pricey restaurant but honestly I’m so happy I went even if I did pay £24 for fish and chips and £4.50 for water which is ridiculous yes. However I will not be returning to Sketch anytime soon sadly so why not go all out for an end of First year celebration. 

We arrived a fair bit early which worked out for the best, as we managed to get some great photos without anyone photobombing. We also went and had a nose at the stylish toilets which are quite confusing what with no sign for the ladies or mens so that was slightly mortifying at one point. But I have no shame so continued to snap away with my phone needing to get that perfect egg pod toilet picture. 

I’m obsessed with the interior, in all it’s perfect pink glory! I feel like the main room or first room you’d want to visit in Sketch is the pink Gallery room however after having a little nose around I need to go to the other rooms. They’re all so different and so interesting. I also need to invest in a pink velvet scallop chair or potentially try and sneak one out of Sketch…maybe Homesense is a better idea. 

I don’t want to ramble on too much and I’m sure the photos of beautiful Sketch will speak for themselves!
