Yes this post contains actually glitter.

So after a small time away from the blog.

I'm back.

Hopefully better then ever.

*Crosses fingers*

So you might of noticed I have tinkered a little bit with the blog design.

I have decided to go for something a little bit simpler.

So I hope you like the new look.

I'm still tweaking parts of it has we speak but let me know if you like the new design.

So back to the post in hand.

On Thursday I went to Manchester for a visit and I ended up buying what may be the most me product I have ever found.

The NYX Glitterati cream pallet.

21 glitter gels in one beautiful palette.

Now every one knows anything glitter wise is very me.

And this I couldn't resist.

Now has you can see, it has most colours of glitter in here. So no worrying about if my glitter will clash with my outfit or make up.

Now it is a glitter gel.

So it doesn't dry quickly so it's can be hard to layer and get full coverage of glitter.

So if your looking for that I wouldn't bother with this.

But for just a hint of glitter. To highlight key areas it's amazing.

You can use on your face, body and even your hair.

Here is how a few colours look.

Now you can see the lack of coverage but because the glitter is mixed with a gel. You can easily put more glitter on top without having to put more adhesive (Aka vaseline or moisturizer) on.

However when you spread the glitter gel thinly it dries really well. Making it a great body glitter.

For me.

The glitter palette is going to be one of those products I get out again and again because it is so useful.

For highlighting and for jazzing up make up.

For price and the use I'm going to get out of it.

It is well worth it.

But if you want to try the glitter out. You can buy a small palette with five colours in.

Available from Urban outfitters.

Normal service to resume shortly.

Hey bloggers.

Noticed a lack of posts?

Yep that's my fault.

A few things have gone wrong this week and it's put my Glitter posts back a few days.

I'm sorry... here is a picture of a cute dog to soften the blow.

But this is just a quick note just to say that the Glitter blog will be back up and running by Sunday.

So keep checking back.

I promise it will be worth it.

I have new purchases to talk about.

Some reviews and a product swap shop coming up too.

I'm excited. I hope you are too.

Lush perfume reviews. A Video...

Hello all.

Earlier today me and my friend Aida made a youtube video just for you.

Cracking glass Gromit.

Well I decided to use my Barry M instant nail effects in black today.

However after six months, it had obviously given up the will to live and I came back to this.

It even crackled inside the bottle.

Shows that to the end it still worked.

Even the brush had a crackle moment.

Think it might be time to purchase a new black crackle.

Oops.

Hands down. It was a surprise.

So hello all.

Especially to the new followers I have picked up recently.

I hope your all well.

Now for the last six months or so. I have been trying to run down my body lotion collection because I had about fifteen and I was running out of room for them and in the same box where I keep my body lotions are also my hand creams.

Now I thought I had just a couple.

So when the empty box revealed that I had six. I was quite shocked.

Now six isn't a huge number but for someone you thought I had two, three tops.

It's quite a shock really. Especially has I don't use them everyday.

Now in order.

Top Row: Lush smitten

Bottom row from left to right: L'occitane hand cream, Avon signature silk hand cream, Johnson's 24 hour moisture hand cream, Avon planet spa hand cream and Bare by Elle Macpherson hand cream.

Now my two favourites have to be these two.

I have the L'Occitane in my bag at all times because my job involves a lot of hand washing so my hands get constantly dry. I love the neutral smell, it's also not greasy and soaks in really quickly. Which I like in the day. My only issue is that the lid does tend to go missing or not screw on properly, which is a bit annoying.

You can get it here.

The Lush smitten hand cream. Smells like marzipan (I smell I adore) and is a little more thicker. So I tend to use that at night. It also lasts for ages. I have had a pot since Christmas and I have hardly made a dent. The only problem is that you can only get this Lush product online now not in stores.

You can get it here.

A special mention has to go to this though.

The smell is actually divine and it gives your hands a beautiful glow. There are also loads of other Avon products in the signature silk range. Like body lotions and body wash.

The best thing about this hand cream is the price.

At the moment is it only £1.55

What a bargain.

You can get it here.

So what has this made me realise.

Well maybe it's time to do what I did with the body lotions and until I get down to two.

No more hand creams for Tiff.

So I think I will be using hand cream everyday now. :)

Does anyone else have lots of hand creams or is it just me?

No more Lego Fringe. Now Just a widge :)

So after Bloggers little mishap yesterday.

Hopefully posting should get back to normal.

So two months ago I posted this about my Lego Fringe...Incident.

http://getyourglitterout.blogspot.com/2011/03/fringe-cut-or-lego-man-lookalike.html

Now that was just my fringe.

The rest of my hair was that short too.

So after nearly a year of not having a proper hair cut.

It has finally been cut.

Get out your confetti :):):)

Here is how short my hair used to be in May last year.

Did you see how short it was? This wasn't my finest hair hour.

I look like Roxette circa 1988. Bad times.

But now I actually have a style to my hair and a Widge (Or a wide fringe)

Now I promise this post isn't just a hair fashion show.

I want to talk about a product the hairdresser used on my hair.

Tigi Bed head's after party.

It's meant to be used on dry head as a smoothing cream and to give hair shine.

Now the hairdresser used it on my hair when it was wet and it made my hair feel like actual silk afterwards.

Now the smell is beautiful. A lovely flowery scent and I have literally been sniffing my hair all day.

So now I may have to go on Ebay and purchase some.

Now I have really fine, blonde hair and what I loved was that it didn't make my hair greasy.

So a winner really.

Available online or in salons from £15

New Avon Purchases.

Hello all.

I hope you are well.

Just thought I would show you my recent Avon purchases.

The photo isn't the best but it shows you a rough idea.

I purchased the Solutions night cream, Magix concealer and sassy swirls perfume in vanilla berry.

I also received the Herve Leger sample of perfume to try.

The night cream is a Revelation. Most night creams tend to be a cream formula, where as this is a gel.

So is more suited to my oily/combination skin type. It also soaks in well and smells lovely.

It was also a Bargain at just under £6 for 50ml.

So it's going to last a while.

The next product was the Magix concealer in light.

Now I have been looking for a cheaper version of Touche Eclat to keep me going and this is just the product.

It's a little bit reflective, so good for under the eyes. It was also on sale for just £3. For that price you can't go wrong.

In this photo it looks to dark for my skin tone, but it does really blend in and gives a fantastic coverage.

So on to the perfume. The sample I haven't tried yet. So I will have to review that at a later date.

I brought the sassy swirls mainly for my handbag because of it's handy size. The smell is lovely notes of black current mixed with a hint of musky vanilla. It is definitely a daytime fragrance. There are three smells in the range so there will be one to suit everyone.

Have you tried any of these products?

Lush Volcano Review.

Hey bloggers.

Long time no write.

That is all my fault.
I have been planning for the last few days some new posts for you all.

Now this one is just a short review but I have some new longer posts lined up later in the week.

Now a few months ago. I told you that I purchased Lush's foot scrub and mask volcano.

Years ago I used to have really nice feet. Never a dry patch and always nail polished to perfection.

Then I went to university. For three years I just gave up on my feet looking nice and did other things. Like drinking.

So my midget size three's now need major repair. Nearly a year after my university life ended. My feet still don't look in any better shape.

So I decided to give Volcano a go.

This is what it looks like on.

After 10 minutes on, it really makes your feet tingle. This is perfect for anyone who has sore, swollen or aching feet.

It then dries slightly, so when you wash it off it also gives your feet a good scrub. The pumice in the mask, makes it perfect for feet because it's so gritty and gets into really hard, tough and dry skin.

But because this is quite an intensive treatment you do need to make sure you use a foot cream afterwards but most of us do that after a foot scrub anyway.

The is only major issue with volcano. Is that it quite messy but it does clean up very easily. So if you can handle that for more softer feet. Then it's definitely worth it.

So in jist are my feet any better after using Volcano.

Yes they are. The hard skin seemed much less prominant but my feet were really bad in the first place, So I think I need at least another couple of Volcano treatments to get them at peak condition again.

If you wear heels or stand on your feet all day. This is the perfect foot treatment for you.

The damage. Just £5.25.

A bargain for a pair of softer, less swollen tootsies.
