JORD Wood Watch + Giveaway! | Frankie 35

Until this past year, I'd personally never been a massive watch fan. I'm that one person who would rather check her phone rather than use a watch to check the time, meaning that I never quite found a use for them. However, throughout the last six months I've discovered a new found love for watches, and whilst I may not wear them completely for the practical purpose, watches for me are a great accessory to add a little more detail to your outfit.

So recently the lovely people from JORD contacted me in regards to their wooden watches. I know what you're probably thinking...a wooden watch? And honestly I was a little apprehensive at first. But I'm always one for out trying new and different things, particularly when it comes to fashion, so I jumped at the chance to get one of these unique watches and I'm pretty glad I did!

High End Beauty Wishlist!

Now there's no denying that my makeup collection has grown quite considerably over these last couple of years, but there's one thing that's really missing from my collection, and that's high end makeup! I do own pieces here and there, especially as I'm a big fan of brands like Urban Decay and Too Faced but overall I really haven't tried that much in terms of high end. It's not necessarily a bad thing; I think a lot of drugstore products can do what high end products do (or even better at times) at just a fraction of the price. But there's just something special about having these high end products in your collection and I've now decided that I need to start trying more out!

 

So I've compiled a little wishlist with the top products that I would really love to try!

 

Budget Vs Splurge | Battle Of The Eyeshadow Primers

Since I got the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer last year, I have easily become obsessed with the stuff. I honestly have no idea how I lived so long without primer in my life...this stuff is magic! When I was recently on holiday in the US I soon came across an e.l.f. stand, and having heard some positive things about their products, I knew that I wanted to pick up some for myself. One thing in particular that stood out was their Shadow Lock eyeshadow primer; something I'd heard many people raving about, and at only $1 I had nothing to lose!

 

Since they have a similar nude, creamy formula, I wanted to see how it actually compared to the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer? If I end up liking this, maybe it could replace my much more expensive obsession!

 

A New Obsession // High End Beauty Wishlist

First of all, I'd like to apologise for not blogging for an entire week; I was so busy with uni and have been ill this entire week, but I'm getting back into the swing of things now!!

 

Anyway, I've recently really been obsessing over some high end products. I actually don't own many myself; I just have a few MAC products and a few random bits and bobs, but I'm very sceptical about paying such a hefty price on a product that could simply not be worth it. So I've done quite a bit of research to find out which products I think would actually be worth it.

I've chosen my top 6 products that I would really like to try at some point this year, so continue reading if you'd like to find out more!
