Rimmel Kate Moss Collection *Lipstick Review*



I'm pretty excited to do my first actual lipstick review. I can't believe I've never done a lipstick review before, I mean I have a pretty big obsession over lipsticks for some reason; I believe a lipstick can really make or break an outfit! The lipstick I will be reviewing is from the Rimmel London Kate Moss Collection which is number 15. I’ll start of by saying I hate the fact that the Kate Moss lipstick collection are all in numbers and not cute, dainty names.

Well anyway I love this lipstick and cannot wait to use it in a photo shoot. However, I have to say it’s a different colour than what I thought but still it’s such a stunning colour and I haven’t seen another lipstick which looks like this in such a long time! It comes across a metallic lilac but when I applied it, it came out more pinky purple with a hint of gold metallic undertones. Which I have to say really impressed me!

So have you tired this lipstick before? What are your thoughts? Tweet me @ryanpaynesworld or leave a comment letting me know!

Starbucks Catch-up OOTD!!

I haven't done an ootd in such a long time and I know that the last outfit of the day was a success so I thought it was about time I blogged another one! I'm going to be trying to do a lot more outfit of the days, so if you like me blogging what I’m wearing then don’t forget to tell me either by leaving a comment or Tweet me @ryanpaynesworld

Since taking two weeks of work I decided to go home for one week to see my family and my old friends and went for a catch up with one of my girlies who I haven't seen in nearly 5 months! So clearly we needed to have a little gossip about guys and our love lives ;)


I decided I wanted to wear all black with a touch of print. I wore my vintage jacket over my black baggy t-shirt from H&M with my Topman Black skinny jeans. To give my outfit a little bit of an edge I decided to wear a chunky black and white chain which was in the sale for £3 at Topman! My shoes are fake Doc Martins but shuush don't tell, which I got from a local shoe shop a long time ago! So that completes my outfit. A simple but timelessly chic outfit, I mean how can you go wrong with wearing black?

Being Gay Isn't A Choice!



Okay, so about a week ago a subscriber of mine wrote me a comment about her friend thinking being gay is a choice - a lifestyle. This then got me thinking… Do people actually think being gay is a choice? We choose to get bullied, hated and even physically assaulted just because of our sexuality and it comes down to us choosing that ‘lifestyle’. Who the hell would pick a lifestyle when it involves being bullied physically and mentally? Who would pick a lifestyle when it involves losing your family and feeling isolated from everyone around you?

No. We can’t help finding the same sex attracted. We can’t help falling in love with the same sex. We can’t help being gay.

Personally it makes me angry and upset, the fact other humans can be so stupid and believe our sexuality is a choice and we can choose it. Let me ask every single straight person…

When did you decide to be straight?

Well let me tell you. You didn’t. I find it insulting how some people have the nerve to question someone’s sexuality. Why does it affect you? Does it bother you that much to know why they’re gay?

Well let me just tell you this. Instead of questioning someone’s sexuality (which has nothing to do with you) maybe focus on your own life.

Revlon PhotoReady Powder Foundation *Review*



It's been a while since I last did a beauty review so I wanted to start by saying I’ve found a cheaper powder foundation which personally seems to last longer overall and also stays on a lot longer! Win - win situation! I thought I’d never be able to find a better powder foundation than The Body Shop one but after trying many powder foundations I came across Revlon PhotoReady Powder Foundation. I’ve never been a big fan of Revlon’s make-up but this foundation is amazing!

It’s perfect if you like wearing BB/CC cream or if you don’t like to wear a lot of make-up. However, if you’re having a break out or if you like more coverage it’s so easy to build up and buff into your skin for a full coverage without it looking cakie or patchy!  

I recommend people that don’t like to spend hours doing their make-up or if you’re in a rush to work, college etc to try this foundation out. If you’re on a budget and can’t afford expensive foundation then for £11 pounds (Superdrug) you can’t really beat it!

What do you guys think about this powder foundation? Leave a comment and let me know or you can tweet me @ryanpaynesworld

Sorry Guys + New Hair!



So before I even try and worm my way out of giving you guys plenty of reasons why I suddenly stopped blogging and updating every week. Let me just say I’m sat here on my laptop drinking the best freaking mint hot chocolate ever! However, on more important news… I’M BACK!! WITH LILAC HAIR!!!!



Leave a comment telling me if you like my hair lilac or not :D

So with all that out of the way, I feel like I own you guys an explanation why I suddenly stopped. One of the reasons why I stopped blogging was my whole world kind of changed (gay as it sounds its true)! Which anyone who followers me on Facebook or watches my Youtube videos will have a good guess as why it all changed.

After all the drama which happened I kind of lost myself and forgot about what I loved doing and lost all my motivation and passion as well. Another reason why I suddenly stopped was because I just moved house which was stressful and I really hope to never move house EVER AGAIN!!

So yeah, those are some of my reasons why I stopped blogging, but like I said earlier, I’m back and I’ve got so many lovely products which some of you who watch my YouTube channel (ryanpaynesworld) will have seen but what I love about blogging is I can really go into detail about each product and give you my thorough opinion and the fact some of these products I believe everyone should try! Apart from that, I also want to do many more OOTD posts, as I seem to get asked a lot on Youtube where I got a certain shirt, necklace etc and just seems perfect to tie that in with my blog :D

That is everything I guess. So make sure you follow and look out for a new post in the next week!
