Guys, I did it. I became a sheep, I jumped on the bandwagon, enter another metaphor here - I finally tried the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams.

The closest NYX counter to me is the Middlesbrough Boots unfortunately, so when I wandered in on a shopping trip and saw my first ever NYX Display, it's fair to say I almost made a puddle right where I stood. In fact, I was so excited, I didn't know what to pick up. I just kept wandering round and round the stand, until I finally picked up a product that everyone just goes craaaaazy about - a NYX Matte Lip Cream.

When the country Italy comes to mind initial thoughts of ice cream, pastas and pizzas, romantic settings whilst snuggling in gondolas as the colourful buildings of Venice surround you - a cultural staple of the world, a leader in fashion, with a history so rich it's a historians wet dream.

My Little Box's Instagram is a tease. Literally, they get you so hot, bothered and excited about your box - will maybe even give you a few spoilers as to what's going to be included in the months box - and I was particularly excited about what would arrive in April due to the theme being books and flowers.


I love books. I love flowers. That equals a winner in my eyes.
