tag/would you rather?Beauty Edition

1. Would you rather lose all your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or all your palettes and eye shadows?

I would rather lose all of my palettes and eye shadows. As i think that just mascara and eyeliner can still look great and you can still change the look around with putting winged eyeliner. Where as anyway i dont normally wear eye shadows in the week i normally just stick with the basic mascara and eyeliner.

2. Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?

I would rather never be able to cut it again, i don't get my hair cut that often anyway as it just doesn't need it.

As well as that i would miss my hair so much, after getting it cut short and spending a long time on it to get it to the length is is now. never again!!!

3. Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?

I would rather have a coral cheek as i just think it looks more natural as a day to day look.

4. If you had £1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?

Now this one is a hard one!! I would probably spend it on clothes, because at the end of the day clothes are expensive. Where as yes makeup is but drugstore products are just as good as high street ones.

5. Would you rather apply lipstick as eye liner, or eye liner as lipstick?

I would rather apply eye liner as a lipstick because with this you can just get different shades and use it as a lip liner.

6. Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?

I haven't ever brought from any, and are planning soon with mac!!! So for that i would say mac.

7. Would you rather only use one eye shadow or one lip colour for the rest of your life?

I would rather wear one eye shadow, as i don't really wear lipsticks and if i do they are nude colours. I prefer to wear eye-shadow.

8. Would you rather wear Winter clothes in the Summer, or Summer clothes in the Winter?

Oh gosh! I would say i would rather wear winter clothes in summer, i hate being really hot and sweaty but most of all nearly all the time im cold!

9. Would you rather wear dark nails or bright nails all year round?

I would rather wear dark nails as with this your nails can go with anything, although if you were to have bright nails that were orange (lets say) and you wanted to wear a pink top. Well thats definitely a no no.  

10. Would you rather give up your favourite lip product or your favourite eye product?

I would rather give up my favorite eye product because i think that your eyes looking good are better than your lips.

11. Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a pony tail or a messy bun?

I would rather wear my hair in a messy bun, because messy buns work with just about everything.

12. Would you rather never being able to paint yours nails again or never use lip gloss?

I would rather not wear lip gloss, as i think its not really that noticeable as it fades away through out the day where as your nails are seen by just about everyone.

13. Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all? Or Sharpie them in everyday?

None, but i do have to choose one i would say sharpie them in, because i guess it could work with a brown sharpie but do it very lightly. I guess its better than getting looks for no eyebrows at all!

14. Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?

I would rather live with out nail-polish. Make-up is more important to me!

I hope you all enjoyed this tag, thankyou for reading!

Daily Face MakeUp

Hello everyone!

As you may have read from the title today I'm going to share with you all my daily face makeup products and the order I do it in. All links will be at the bottom of the post. 

1. After moisturising, I use my 'Rimmel London - wake me up' foundation. I place this on to my face with a beauty blender which I absolutely love as it gives a airbrush finish with no lines. 

2. I then spray my 'MUA PRO-BASE Fixing Mist' to keep my foundation holding all day long.

3. After my foundation, I use my 'MUA Cover and Conceal' concealer. I place three dots under my eyes with this product and just blend it in with my fingers. As well as on any spots or red patches. 

4. To matte and not to have oily skin, I use my 'MUA Pressed powder in shade 1' and with the flat side of my beauty blender I pat it under my eyes where I have just concealed and any were else with shiny patches. 

thankyou for reading once again. 

look out for my next post on Saturday:-)

night routine

Today i thought i would show you all my night routine eg the products i use to take of my make-up.

I think most people know its important to cleanse your face at night and make sure you have nearly all of your makeup of to as people say 'let your face breath'.

But many people just like me sometimes just want to jump into bed and be done with it.

So recently i have decided on a night routine which i like doing, and is simple to do.

So ill just run through what products I use and how.

1. With my 'primark beauty facial cleansing wipes' or any other makeup remover wipes. I simply just take of my makeup.

2. I use the Garnier Skin Naturals and place some of this on to any cotton pads and simply wipe around my face and with this you realize how much makeup is left on your face although you have used a makeup remover wipe. As well as this I know lots of people have sensitive skin like me, and it work perfectly alright on me. So I would defiantly recommend this product.

3. Next I just wash my face with warm water. Although if I'm getting any spots I use the 'Freederm face wash scrub' and scrub it on to my face and wash it of with water. 

4. I then moisturize. I use the simple rich moisturizer and just rub it on to my skin. 

5. The last thing I do is I apply lip balm, to two current lipblam's I'm loving are the 'baby lips hydration' and then I apply the 'I love strawberries and milkshake' on top. Which is amazing.

school supplies 1 - pencil case

I was planning on uploading this on another day, and keeping my Wednesday and Saturday posts just as fashion and beauty. But i had nothing else planned to post today. So sorry that it is not a fashion and beauty post!

Its that time where lots of people are beginning to go back to school, or even some have already.So i thought i would show you all what supplies i keep in my pencil case. Although its not to do with beauty and fashion. I wanted to share it with you.

So a little warning this blog post might be a bit long, ill keep it as short as i can.

Colored top black pens.

I picked up these pens thinking they were coloured because of the top of them, but it turns out there not. So there are 5 black pens. With colours yellow,orange, red, green and blue at the top.

- Poundland.

BIC - Tipp-Ex

Some schools don't allow tipp-ex but mine does. So i picked up the Shake and Squeeze correction pen in a 2 pack.

- Tesco: Cant remember the price.

OXFORD - Campus Notebook.

Everyone needs a notebook for notes, so i got this one which has really decent lined paper. As well as at the front it has room for your name etc just in case it gets lost and room for you to write in your own timetable.

- Tesco: £2

Mechanical Pencils.

I picked up two packs of these as i get through them so quick. They have an eraser top and soft rubber grip at the bottom.

- PoundLand: £1 for one pack.

Colouring Pencils

Every now and again you might need to do some colouring, so i just got the Tesco value small pencils. As i just think they are small so will fit in to your pencil case, and have the main colours you might need.

- Tesco:Cant remember the price.

HELIX - Ruler.

Everyone needs a ruler, so i just picked up the helix, open and click one in blue.

- Tesco - £1

BIC - Crystal Medium Mixed Pens

These are my favorite pens and i have been using them for a while now, but just needed a top up for school. This pack has 4 blues,4 blacks,2 reds and 2 greens.

- Tesco: £1.50

GOCREATE - Jumbo Felt Tip Pens.

I got 12 felt tip pens, in all the main colours you might need. 

- Tesco: Cant remember the price.

Rubbers
I got some cheap two pack of rubbers.
- Tesco:£50p

I hope you enjoyed this blog post. Look out for my next post soon on Saturday, or even if your lucky a random mid week post before!

Make-up Collection and Storage

I was wondering about what to post today, and thought i might as well show you a bit of where i store my make-up. 

 ill just give you a run through of all of my storage etc. As well as where i got everything from and what i store in them.

Plastic Draws
In the top of my plastic draws i have all of my  beauty blender/creams/eye make-up/deodorant bits and pieces in there. 
My first draw i place all of my pencil eyeliners/liquid eyeliners and some eyebrow pencils.
In the second and last draw i have my concealers, my MUA pressed powder as well as some clarins samples which im trying out at the moment. 
From Homebase. 

Clear plastic container.
So in here i keep my MUA Bronzer, MUA Blusher and my two sleek pallets which are a eyebrow pallet as well as a contour pallet.
This plastic container, is just like the one at the end but smaller.
You can purchase these from any craft store or even maybe Wilkinson's. 

Black and white storage tub.
As you can see from this its a round medium size tub, with a flowery swirly pattern on.
In here i just keep all of my mascaras. Some examples of makes i have are: MUA,Maybelline london etc.
Im not sure where this container is from.

Pink Plastic Container.
In here i keep my makeup brushes, i don't have much brushes so they perfectly fit in here.
Again im not sure where this is from.
But im sure you can pick one of these up from poundland, or even a gardening store of some sort.

Mirror.
My mirror is two sided with one side zoom, and the other not. You can buy these from lots of places.
Mine is from Homebase.

Clear plastic container.
In here i just keep my foundations and some pressed powders. 2 Examples of what i have: rimmel london wake me up x2, collection 2000.
As i said this one is just bigger than the one i keep my sleek pallets in.
So as again, any craft store should sell these.

Fairy Lights.
My fairy lights are just plain stars, and look really pretty when its beginning to get dark.
Not sure where these are from. (could pick some up from homebase or wilkinsons)

Vintage Flowers Mat.
I brought some fabric, to make some bunting for my room and had some left so just decided to put it here for my make-up collection. 

And just at the end there i have my favorite make-up remover wipes, which are just from primark in a twin pack for just a pound!  

I would just like to say that im not trying to show of in any shape of form, i just thought you all would like to see it and get some ideas too.
Thankyou for reading again,

Maybelline New York Haul.

Today i had a little of a browse around some shops, and ended up buying a few items. 
- 

Finally 'baby lips' have come to the uk, which made me very happy.
So i had a look today in Tesco and there they where.
I Picked up two as it was two for £5. 
I have got the 'hydration' (on right) and the Pink Punch (on the left).

I have already tried both of them, because i couldn't wait, there both so creamy and go on nice and smooth on your lips. The hydration one smells like vanilla, and the pink punch i would describe it as a candy floss smell, like as if you were at the fair smell. 

-

Now here i got a bargain. Now tesco normally have a 'clearance' of make-up area, so i had a quick look and spotted this. Its the maybelline 'One by one volume Express Mascara'. Now just about everyone loves there mascaras but they are pricey and i saw this one reduced to £1.99!! Now it hadn't been opened, the packet wasn't damaged at all so there was nothing wrong with it, i think it must of been a older style. But anyway i love this one, i think i might be loving it a bit more than my falsies mascara by maybelline. 

Sorry that it was only a little haul, and you may have noticed that im posting today not yesterday, as i did start writing it yesterday but began to feel tired and have a headache so i never finished it. so sorry! But normally i will be posting every Wednesday and Saturday. As well as the odd posts ever now and again.

Thankyou for reading

August Wishlist.

I have decided to start something new on my blog, which is every month i will post a fashion wishlist.

Most of you should know what a wishlist is but if you don't its basically you make a list of things you would like, or are planning to buy.

I have picked two items from topshop as well as a extra top for my wishlist this month and i thought i would share them all to you.

These two items are from topshop.

1. These high wasted JONI MOTO jeans are really in fashion at the moment, and a lot of people seem to have these. I love how topshop have brought out all different colours for these jeans, my favorite which are the are the vintage style (which are the ones in the photo). As well as that these jeans would really work with a crop top.

2. I have been loving bomber jackets for a while now, but never found one that i 100% loved. I think most of them are expensive for what they are, but i found this one for only £15 from £49.99. Now that's what i call a bargain. I really like this one because its got a pattern in the middle and back, but its bold around the sleeve area. This jacket is really good for just a throw on jacket, and would go with just about everything.

3. This wont be to everyone's taste (obviously not if your not a fan of vampire weekend). But i love this top, as you can just chuck it on just with some leggings and your all ready to go!

I have looked around and the only place you can seem to buy this is the vampire weekend shop. 

This month i decided just to stick with three items to add to my wishlist. I tag all of the fashion and beauty bloggers out there to all show me your months wishlist.

If you do decided to do a wishlist or have already done one, please feel free to leave your link below and ill love to have a look.

Thank you for reading in till Wednesday.

Bia for now:')

Mini MUA Haul

I recently brought some new MUA products, and thought i would show you all.

1. The first thing i picked up was the 'cover and conceal' concealer. This is probably now one of my favorite concealers i own. Its really light to the skin not making it feel thick at all, and gives a glowing finish. I picked this up in the colour 'fair'. Although in nearly all of MUA's products i find that i am in 'fair', once i tried this i noticed that it was more lighter. But more lighter means better for under eye brightening. In all i love this, and will deferentially be repurchasing!     

2. I also brought the 'eXtreme Curl Mascara'. I use this when i want my lashes to be a bit more natural, and not so long. I find that it does do what it says. I normally put on my maybelline london 'Falsies Mascara' and then add some of this on top just to shape my lashes a bit more. I have this in 'black,brown'.

3. Im a big lover for MUA's eyeshadows, so i decided to pick up two more. I got 'Shade 11 - Pearl' (left one) and 'Shade 19 - matt' (Right one). Both of these two eye-shadows together create the perfect smokey eye make-up look. As usual these are super pigmented. As well as super cheap if your a beginner in make-up!  

In all i love MUA. I think you should all have a look at there different products, and i can almost promise you, you wont be disappointed!

Thankyou for reading again!

A Catch Up

As you may have noticed i haven't blogged for a while now, i have been busy going on holiday etc and really haven't had time to sit down and write a blog post. As well as that for a fact i have missed it alot.

As some of you may know school is coming up soon so i have now decided to set days which i will blog, for then instead of doing random days, you will know which days to look out for a blog post as-well.

I will post on two days (Wednesdays and Saturdays). Although there will be a few odd posts every now and again, they are the two days to differently expect a post from me. 

Although because i have not posted for a while, i will be doing a extra blog post today as well as this one. Instead of waiting till Saturday for a actual post from me!

Thought i would let you all know whats happening:).

Primark and peacocks little haul.

So today i nipped into some shops to get a few bits and bobs.

I only picked up three clothing items, but i did pick up two new beauty items which will be in a blog post tomorrow.

1. Primark.

I picked up these shorts while in primark, there was a few coulors of these design of shorts, there really thin so great for really hot days, or even just for lying around in. They also have side pockets, as well as 7 gold studs down the side of them. I really do love these, they are so comfy. I think they are actually quite cheap, compared if these were in topshop  £7.00.

2. Peacocks

I thought these would be really  nice in the summer. There nice and easy slip on and of shoes, there were black ones and blue ones. But i often were black so this is why i choose the navy blue ones.£7.00

3.  Primark.

                                  

I recently ordered a top like this from newlook, but it came out of stock, so i saw this one in primark and picked it up. I think it was actually better from primark with the price. There nice and comfy, and easy just to put on when its nice and warm. £2.00

Thankyou for reading, beauty haul will be up tomorrow:) 

Thankyou for reading again:)))))

beauty haul

Hello everyone.

So as i did say that i would be uploading a haul here it is. 

1. The first thing i brought is the 'alberto balsam, in juicy green apple'. These are a Shampoo and Conditioner. There are lots of different types you can get of these dry hair, greasy hair etc. 

I have used this once before a while back and loved it but never brought it again for some reason, so i decided to go back into them because i love them so much. They leave your hair smelling really nice, as-well as smooth. They also have a website which i never new of because i normally buy mine from asda. As-well as this they are super cheap for what you get!

There website - http://albertobalsam.com/

Price - £1 (in asda). 99p (on the website!)

2. Sleek contour kit. After being a big fan of sleek i thought i had to try out this kit. This kit contains a bronzer, and a highlighter. There both super pigmented that you don't need a lot on your brush at all. I use the bronzer to contour my face, such as my jawline and cheekbones. With the highlighter i put on to around my nose, and just on top of my bronzer. With every sleek packaging you get full instructions on which ways you could use this product. 

- I brought my product from blush which is a beauty store.

http://www.blushbeautybox.com/Default.asp

But im sure you can get it from the sleek website or even cheaper of ebay or amazon.

3. You may have already heard of a 'tangle teezer'. I have been wanting one for a while now so i finally decided to get one. I really do love it already, instead of a hairbrush which pulls your hair if you have a knot it gently glides it stopping any hair falling out. As-well as this it also makes your hair really smooth afterwards. There are lots of different colors to choose from i have the blue and pink one.

I brought this from 'hot hair' shop. 

http://www.hothair.co.uk/Tangle-Teezer-Blue-Pink.html

Aswell they are much cheaper from here than somewhere like boots!

4. Simple rich moisturizer. I don't really have a review on this yet, because i haven't tried it out. But i have really sensitive skin so hopefully this will be okay as it does say on the packet 'sensitive skin experts' I brought this because i know its well known on the world of youtube and people blog about it. So i thought i would give it a whirl and see how i get on with it. 

I brought this from Asda. 

- £3.

 Thankyou for reading again..

DIY MAKE-UP STORAGE

Hello Everyone

This post is a bit of a different one, rather than what i have been doing. So i thought i mind as-well show you how i did it in stages.

diy make-up storage.

 What your going to need.

- Scissors
- pen/pencil
- Hot glue gun or strong glue
- white plain paper
- Black (or color of your choice) plain paper
- Card Board box (your choice on size)
- liquid glue
- Magazines or another paper    





1. Cut along the lines of the section which your box has been opened basically (the flapped bits) Keep these to the side you will need these later.

2. On one side of the box cut down for then you have a open section into your box. But do not cut all the way to the bottom, as you can see leave some card left, as much as you want. 

3. Turn to the sides of your box, and get your ruler and draw a straight line, from the top of the box to the top of the section you just cut. Then just get your scissors and cut along the line, you might want to keep the left overs from this to. 

4. From three this is what your box should look like know. After this just place some of your liquid glue onto the sections as shown on the photo. 
Once you have done this get your white piece of paper and simply glue it down on to the box, this just stops you from seeing the card. 





5. After this you box should look like this. 

With your left over pieces of card that you have just cut of, sort them out cut them shorter, keep them the same what ever you want, to make it the way you want them. 

Put them into the position your going to have them (which makeup is going to go in which section etc) 
Keep them bits to one side, remember which ones you are using.



6. Cover your box. 
Unless you want a plain box, then why not cover it. Here i just went through a few magazines, and picked out a few make-up adverts, and cut them out, and just stuck them on, it doesn't have to be neat. Just make sure you have covered most of the box (except the bottom because you wont see it)

 7. Start to cover your sections. The pieces you picked on section 5, you can now cover them. I covered mine with my black paper, It doesn't have to be neat. I just wrapped them around a few times with glue.

8. Stick in your sections. This is were you will need strong glue, or a hot glue gun. Just put a thin strip of some glue as the bottom of your section, and put it into the box and press and hold down it for a few seconds  and there you go its stuck. Keep doing this, in-till all of your sections are stuck down.

9. Put in your make-up and there you go, your make-up diy storage done!

In my make-up storage i placed.
- Fondations
- Lip products. 
- My small clarins 'try them out' products.
- Face powers, Sleek kit, Bronzer.
At the bottom random bits.




Thankyou for reading.

I will be uploading another haul soon.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask or any suggestions on posts. I love hearing from all of you:)
