February Favourites

Hi Guys,

Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, it's just I'm moving house in about 2 days which means my life is a bit hectic. Anyways this is going to be my February favourites.

Makeup and beauty favourites

• Rimmel match perfection foundation - I love this as it is the only foundation that properly suits my skin type and tone.

• Bourjois smokey eye eyeliner - This is amazing as it is so soft and is so easy to apply.

• Benefit gimme brow - I don't usually fill in my brows but I use this as it sets them and colours them slightly.

• Sleek rose gold blush - this blush is brilliant as it gives you a nice flushed colour as it is pink with flecks of gold.

• Benefit foaming cleanse - since starting using this I have seen such a big difference in my skin. 

• Zoella makeup bag - I love Zoella and I couldn't wait to try some of her beauty products I love the bag as it holds all of my 'everyday' makeup I also have her fizz bar but I haven't used it yet.

Random favourites

•  Jolly Ranchers - we don't have these in England but one of my friends brought me some back from Canada and they are amazing my favourite flavour is probably Blue Raspberry. 

• Love, Tanya by Tanya Burr - it is an amazing book there are so many makeup tips and how you can start out on YouTube which I found extremely useful.

• 5 Seconds of Summer - when I say this I mean their albums, their book, I love them so much.

• Sam Smith - his album is amazing he is such a talented artist. 

• Ed Sheeran - again his album is fantastic it's one of those albums that you can just listen to and it makes you smile.

So these are a few of my February favourites I will try and post again soon, but I won't make any promises as when I have moved house I will have to go a week without Wi-Fi. So I hope you have a great week.

Goodbye 2014

Hi Guys,
Firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Secondly, I know Blogmas was a massive fail, and I would like to say I have a list of excuses but the only ones I can think of are that throughout December I was quite ill and I was very busy, but I hope you will forgive me, sorry.

Anyway I hope you all had a brilliant Christmas. 2014 wasn't the best year for blogging as I only put up seven posts.
As it is a new year I have thought of a few new years resolutions, which are:

1. Attempt to write and post more on my blog, as I love doing it because its my little space where I can be myself and where people can enjoy reading my posts.
2. Answer my phone more, a lot of my friends and family will tell you that I am awful at answering my phone.
3. This last one may sound a bit cheesy but just enjoy myself and do more things that make me smile.

There are so many things that I am exited about that are happening this year, but there is one thing that I have been contemplating doing for a while which is starting a Youtube channel. I have been wanting to do this for a while now but I have never really had the confidence to do this, some days I have thought about filming a video but then something happens that makes me think about if I should do it, another factor is that once when I was going to make a video I couldn't find the tripod to put my camera on so I asked my brother where it was, but all he did was ask so many questions about why I needed it, and what youtube channel. So I think stopped me from doing it. I love watching so many different youtubers and they inspired me and I thought that it would be amazing if something that I have created and spent time doing could make other people happy, or inspire them.

Any way I hope you have a brilliant new year, and sorry that got a bit deep near the end. I will keep you posted on the Youtubey thing.

Blogmas Day 4

Hi Guys,

So recently I have been using the TRESemme keratin smooth 7 day smooth system heat activated  treatment, it is amazing! It leaves your hair silky smooth and lasts through washes. You wash your hair with the shampoo and conditioner, then apply the treatment, dry your hair, then you have to straighten your hair but go over the piece you are straightening 3-5 times in order to activate the treatment. When I use this I only straighten my hair the day I wash it and then leave it until I wash it again. When I wash my hair after I have previously used the treatment, I wash my hair, I dry it then straighten/curl my hair, normally I can do this four times before I have to use the treatment again. Just to let you know I have not been sponsored to say this and it is my personal opinion but I love this product.

Blogmas Day 3

Hi Guys,
One of the really exciting things that gets you in the Christmassy mood is advent calendars. There are so many you can get, there's the more obvious chocolate one, but if you don't want chocolate you can get make up, Play Mobil, LEGO, Yankee candles, you could also make your own and put little gifts in each day, there's so many different ones out there it's hard to choose. My advent calendar this year is a fair trade milk chocolate one, I think that if you have a chocolate calendar it has to be fair trade as it is ensuring us that the people producing the products get a fair price. I think advent calendars are a great invention as they make the build up to Christmas even more exciting than it already is.

Blogmas Day 2

Hi Guys,
Welcome to Blogmas day two, today I am going to do the 'Me Time' tag. Recently I have seen this tag around the internet. I hope you enjoy it.

What do you watch or read during me-time?
It depends on what mood I'm in for what I watch, but normally it is either a Disney film or around this time of year a Christmas film such as Love Actually, otherwise I will catch up on TV programs I have missed. If I read then I will carry on with the book I am currently reading (which is Shiver by Maggie Steifvater).

What do you wear during me-time?
Anything comfy, normally leggings and a baggy top or one of my onesies.

What are your me-time beauty products?
Normally a face mask, but anything from LUSH, as all of the products are amazing and if you didn't know from one of my previous posts I have a slight obsession with LUSH, if you want to read it click here.

Current favorite nail polish?
I love Barry M nail polishes as there are so many and they are really cheap compared to some brands my favorite two are probably Chai and Chili which are some of the new autumn colours, also Tanya Burr's nail polishes are amazing.

What do you eat/drink during me-time?
Either hot chocolate or coffee, I love the White hot chocolate fro Whittard's or just the Cadbury's hot chocolate. I don't really eat snacks when I have me time but when I do it is normally chocolate or popcorn.

Current favorite candle?
I don't really own a lot of candles but I love the spiced scents, or vanilla and citrus scents. The spiced scents are amazing for autumn and winter and the vanilla and citrus scents are really nice for spring and summer.

Do you ever have outdoor me-time?
Yes. In spring and summer I try to have as much outdoor me-time as possible, but its hard to get outside during the winter due to the weather.

Would you ever go and see a movie alone?
Probably, I think I am really lucky as there is a cinema about five minutes away from where I live, I have been many times by myself and with friends, in the summer I went to see The Fault In Our Stars with my friend from primary school.

Favorite online shop?
My Mum is usually the person in our family that shops online but I love looking at the Asos and Boohoo websites also amazon and ebay.

Anything to add?What else do you do during me-time?
I love having pamper evenings and baking. I also spend to much time on social media and going outside.

Blogmas 2014

Hi Guys,
This year during the run up to Christmas I am going to attempt to do Blogmas which is where I will try to put a post up every day during December, up until Christmas. I know I will probably struggle with this as you have seen I have only put three post up since January which is not good at all. I hope I will manage to finish Blogmas and I hope you will all enjoy reading the posts. Some of the posts will be Christmas themed and others won't. So I will see you soon.
