Frontcover Style Queen - The Swatches

Hey girlies :)

Hope you are all well!

So, as promised, here is an indepth look and swatches of the Frontcover Style Queen box, which is currently Boots Star Gift of the Week!

Oh, how I searched like a mad woman for this...
Read the story here.

Domed Baked Eyeshadows:

Satin Pressed Eyeshadows & Cheek Domes:

Lip Glosses:

So, there we have it! My overall impression is that the box is good, with lots included in there for your money. I probably wouldn't pay full price, just because the shades aren't ones I tend to wear. I don't usually use most of the colours of eyeshadow that come in this set but I'll give them a try! My only 'issue' is with the lip glosses, just in terms of shades and that you can't re-apply/top up when out (unless you have a large handbag and wish to carry the whole set around! But, for £17 for all this, who can complain?!
The brush set included is a big plus for me.

I really like the Domed Baked eyeshadows :)
This would make a great gift for Christmas!

Frontcover Style Queen (Boots Star Gift of the Week) & ASOS Sale

Hey girlies :)

So, I am back from my fun weekend away! That means back to blogging :)

Firstly, I want to talk (again) about Boots Star Gift of the Week.

Frontcover Style Queen

Better than Half Price: £35, down to £17

Offer available: Friday 14th - Friday 21st October

SOLD OUT online!

Now, you may have seen that last week I posted about the Frontcover Style Queen box and how I was after it. Well...I went in to Boots on the day of it coming on offer (Friday) and saw LOADS there but decided I would wait until I was in Liverpool on Monday to buy...bad idea!

Liverpool had sold out!

When we got home from our weekend away later that night I had a look on the Boots website and was gutted to see they had also sold out!

This evening I went to Boots at the retail park and...yes, they had sold out too!! At this point I was totally gutted!

My last resort (without going into town) was the retail parks in Telford, so I hopped back in the car and headed up to Wrekin Retail Park in Telford where I found 3 boxes remaining...YES!!!!

So, without hesitation I bought one :) WIN!

I will post swatches ASAP, probably tomorrow ;-)

Next up...

ASOS Sale!

Tonight I went on the ASOS website, just for a browse and discovered they have a sale, with quite a few good bits in the Beauty section.

I made a few purchases...

I shall keep them a secret til they arrive, but go check out the sale, there are some good offerings ;-)

Also...

Wanting to change my blog name...

I have been wanting to change my blog name pretty much since I created my blog, as I am not overly keen on the name, the URL and also when Googled 'Blue Eyed Blonde' does not come up with the best results :-/ Some slightly dodgy!

I have read that changing blog names and URL's shouldn't be a problem, and that everything will remain the same in terms of posts and Followers...I hope this is the case!

I shall let you know if I make a definite decision to change my blog name, of course ;-)

Hope you are all well and had a great weekend/are having a good week!

I will post about my weekend (sister's 21st Birthday Weekend) soon...
