Where I Buy My Clothes

Where I Buy My Clothes


It's been over three weeks and I'm really sorry for the delay but there were so many unexpected events I went to as well as going away again.  Anyway, it's end of the Summer Holidays for me now so school is starting really soon so I'll be busy with all the GCSE Preparation!  Lots of you have asked for fashion/clothing posts so here it is! xx

I tend to buy all clothing from high street shops apart from the occasional a bit more expensive clothing every now and again.  I buy statement clothing so that they are more versatile and easy to dress up and down.  I buy my jeans from Next as they always have a range of colors to choose from and aren't too pricey.  They last a long time too!



My mum recently bought me a leather biker jacket from H&M which I can't wait to wear for Autumn.  It's my first leather biker jacket so I'm not too experienced on that side :)
I buy any tank tops from Primark, mainly as they are cheap but quality is good.  I buy three tank tops in three different colors: white, grey and black so I can choose one whenever suitable.  I then buy any crop tops from New Look as they are so nice and have lots of new designs.

I shop in River Island, New Look and Hollister for the odd mixed up clothing item nearly every month so I can change my look.  I like to buy my Winter jackets from SuperDry as they last so long and are really cosy.  
These are all my go-to shops when I'm off shopping... hope you found it useful and maybe worth going to these shops to look around.

My New Favourite Makeup Must-Haves

My New Favorite Makeup Must-Haves 


I have recently updated my makeup bag and decided to write a post about it because there are so many products I also have in my makeup bag.  Some of them are drugstore products so are a little cheaper then others.  Hope you like this :)

NARS Blusher in Orgasm 
This is NARS latest shade in their blusher selection and even though it looks quite pink it gives a lovely healthy glow to the cheeks.  I really like the colour and it's quite a soft powdery kind - I prefer powder to the liquid kinds as it's easier to apply.  

Maybelline New York Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Mascara
This really shapes my brows which is really good because my brows can look quite sparse so this helps to fill them in the most natural way.  It fills in small gaps and there's never clumps in my brows which is a bonus.

Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
This gives a feminine light lash look which looks really pretty.  It doesn't smudge on my lids either so it makes the whole process quicker and easier.  But the main reason why it's a "must have" is because I don't have to curl my lashes before using this because it already has a formula to push-up my lashes.  
Eyeko Sport Waterproof Mascara
I can trust Eyeko as a company on their products because they are so good.  This waterproof mascara lasts really well so when doing sports it's the perfect beauty top-up to use.


Urban Decay Smoky Palette
Even though I don't own this product I tried it in a shop and my friend also has this and it works really well and has a range of 12 colours to create the best Smoky Eye.  It also comes with a two-sided brush which is extra useful.
Real Techniques Makeup Brushes
I love this brand when it comes to their brushes because they are so soft so don't irritate my skin and also look really nice.  I love the Bold Metals ones even though I don't own any... yet!
Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray
I use this dry hair spray every time I'm creating that beachy waves look.  It works really well and I use it all the time now - especially the fact it's Summer.

So these are the products that are a must-have and worth investing because of the quality of these gems.  Hope these help a bit and love to hear your feedback... maybe any tips?
I'll write again next weekend as I'm back again for my routine of blogging xx

My 9 Day Holiday in Italy

My 9 Day Holiday in Italy


It feels such a long time since I've posted anything which feels weird in a way but also a bit of a nice break.  I can't wait to tell you about my holiday... hope you enjoy this post xx

I stayed in Italy for 8 nights going around various places around Italy.  On the first 3 nights me and my family stayed in a hotel in the centre of Verona.  I love the busy vibes there and with so many high-end shops - it truly feels amazing.  Some of the shops there were Sephora, Gucci and a MAC Studio!  There was also a really yummy Italian Gelato shop which had so many different flavors from Tiramisu to Passion Fruit.  We visited the Romeo and Juliet balcony which was cool.  The hotel we stayed in was called Grand Relais Empire and was really clean and the staff were friendly.  I would recommend d staying there if visiting Verona.


We went to Caffe Monte Baldo for lunch in Verona and I think it's really nice inside but my favorite place to eat in Verona was La bottega della Gina even though it was really small inside the food tasted really nice and had a selection of pasta dishes.  

I bought some beauty products from KIKO Studio - nail polish, Super Gloss, eyeliner and hand fluid as small memories of Italy.  I bought my close friends some presents from KIKO as well as in Venice.
We visited Venice for a day but that day was extremely hot, maybe about 36 degrees?! It was also really busy even though it looked really pretty along the river.  

After the 3 nights we headed to a small B&B called Corte delle Muse near Lake Garda.  The lady running it was so friendly and welcoming I wonder about going back sometime!  Food for breakfast is lovely and the village is really pretty.


We ate in a small family-run restaurant which serves a wide range of Italian food.  On the next day we visited another small village called Salo right next to Lake Garda.  It has so many shops and cafes :)

The final hotel we stayed in was in the countryside part of Lake Garda and was a luxe Country House called Casino de Caccia.  It is amazing and rated really high.  There was a swimming pool, Jacuzzi and lots of parasols and sunbeds.  The rooms are really pretty and grand and really clean.  Honestly worth going there but is expensive...


We had dinner at the best restaurant we've had in the whole of our Italian holiday called Bella Vento and the food is just amazing.  My favorite dish was the pasta dish with small chopped mushrooms.  Normally I wouldn't touch mushrooms but this was different.  
The next few days we stayed chilling in the pool and also went to Gardaland which is a really cool them park.  

It was a truly amazing holiday and can't wait for next year's holiday!
Note:  These aren't my photos.
Love to know your holidays too xx

NEW: Working With High End Brands!

NEW:  Working With High End Brands!


I am so excited to tell you that I'll soon be working with some of the top high end brands which I cannot wait!  I know that one of the brands will be Dior and absolutely love this brand whether it's their makeup products or fragrances.  I'm also hoping to work with other brands but still not yet decided so any opinions would be amazing!

I will only start working with them after 10th of August after my holiday in Italy so I'll be trying to arrange everything as soon as possible.


The way I'm hoping it will work is myself advertising the very newest products and styles of Dior before a lot of bloggers and YouTubers which is a privilege. 
I've contacted them already and they said I'll just need to fill in an application and once that's confirmed they will be able to create a portfolio with their high resolution photos.  It sounds really cool and they have a lot of backstage events which I'll hopefully go to when I'm a bit older which they'll notify me with.  

As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts about it and any brands you think I should work with too x
I'll post again hopefully this Friday but can't guarantee.

My New Favourite Summer Scents

My New Favorite Summer Scents


I'm really sorry for such a late post but I was busy :)
Anyway, I managed to write a post about my favorite Summer scents from having a bit of test and tryout with so many different fragrances over the past weeks.  I love the different kinds  of fragrances and have a few at home.  There are so many brands out there that I have not yet tried but I tend to go from Mugler, Jimmy Choo to Dior.  
I know my mum has a Dior and Chanel No.5 perfume so I sometime spritz some on before I go to a party out!


Angel Muse £45 by Mugler
This is my absolute favorite fragrance from this Spring to this Summer.  It smells amazing and I would really think it's worth investing in one of these.  I'm not too sure why I'm crazy about it but there's something that I just love about it.
L'Eau D'Issey £30 by Issey Miyake
If I'm honest, when I first sprayed some on it wasn't a fragrance I'd fallen in love with straightaway.  But the more I used it the more I started to like it.  It has lovely notes of flower blossoms and smells of almost light honey.
Black Opium £65 by YSL
Another of my fragrances I adore.  It has a really powerful strong scent which I really like.  I think Yves Saint Laurent really do some amazing fragrances.  I have considered buying a full bottle instead of just a small sample.
Live Irresistible £40 by Givenchy
With notes of rose pink flowers and an occasional scent of fruits, I think this perfume is perfect for the Spring season day and night.  I also like wearing it for the Summer x


Be Delicious £20 by DKNY
Love the strong scent of freshness even though it doesn't really smell like anything near apples as advertised.  It's perfect for daytime - especially in the early morning!  The price is much cheaper so would be a good option to go to :)
I'de love to know your thoughts and the scents you love!

My Summer Plan

My Summer Plan 


*I'm sorry if I don't keep up to date with my posts in the Summer Holidays as I do have lots of unexpected events but I promise to still have posts being posted as much as possible.  I won't be posting from 30th July to 10th August as I'll be away in Italy*

Every Summer Holiday me and my family go on holiday as well as visiting friends from London and also Kent.  I love the Summery feeling and cannot wait for this Summer as we're visiting my relatives and having a huge picnic in the big London Park with around 15 of us sat together.  
My friends are coming round so hopefully we can all go to the Cinema and also have a sleepover!
In the later days of August I'll be going to either Dorset, Devon or Bristol with my family.


I know my family are going to Italy at the beginning of August which is my main reason why I decided to post about this on my blog :)
Hope you enjoy it!

I'll be visiting three places in Italy for 8 days.  The first place I'll be staying is Verona which I cannot wait.  I'm hoping to visit the famous balcony of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.  I think the countryside would look really pretty and I know my parents want to do a wine tasting tour!!  
I'm so excited and hopefully walking in the center of Verona will be like I imagined.


On a few of the days my family and I will be doing day trips from Verona to Lake Garda to walk around the famous Italian Lake and eating out would be so cool.  In the evenings we've planned to go to Gardaland which is a famous Italian theme park open from 6pm to 11pm!

After that we'll have a day trip to Venice instead of staying there as it'll probably be really busy.  There are so many shops in this city so that's probably the place where I'll buy my souvenirs for myself and my 4 closest friends.


The classic Italian ice creams and gelatos is something I'd love to try.  I know both of my parents said it was amazing and had so many different flavors.  Overall, we'll be staying in 3 different hotels and I know the last one is posh and expensive... xx


I'd love to know what you're up to for this Summer!
Hopefully I'll have another post or two out for this weekend.

5 Steps to Getting The Perfect Selfie

5 Steps to Getting The Perfect Selfie


Some people just seem to be naturally more photogenic than others but there are tips to look amazing.  I used to struggle a lot with this but I've gradually overcome this and it's now much easier.  

Glitter and Shimmer
I always avoid and glitter or shimmery products on my face because they don't look great in photos.  Also think about a low SPF Foundation so you don't look ghostly pale in a photo.
Beautiful Shine
I think shiny, glossy hair that reflects in light can look really pretty.  I like to use a glossing hair product which is easily sold in many drugstores and provided by many brands.  Ones from The Body Shop are really good too.


The Lighting
When taking a photo with my friends, I always look for the best lighting possible.  Using natural light is the best and only very little times do I actually use filters.
Change Your Angles
Practice taking pictures from different angles, then look at the best one and remember to use that angle in future photos.  I found my perfect one was looking slightly to the right.
Up The Eyes
By adding eye makeup it can look really nice in photos.  Avoid any eye shadows as such but add black voluminous Mascara for that definition.  Curling your lashes is also a good thing to do.  Then add black eyeliner to the corners for a kitten flick.  It honestly makes a difference and is worth trying out.
Hope my top tips help as it's helped me x

The Fitness Files: Summer

The Fitness Files: Summer


From this Summer, every season I will try to write about the fitness stuff I do weekly to help maintain a healthy lifestyle including what I eat for a post-workout.  I think it's really important to workout regularly to have clear glowing skin :)

The Song To Add On Your Playlist: "Let Her Go" by Passenger
I like this song so much and always listen to it for my 5 minute warmup to get my blood pumping around my whole body.  

The Workout Video I Love: Fitness Blender
It's not really a video but this websites is called Fitness Blender and I love it.  They have so many videos on there from warmups to 90-minute HIIT workouts.  I haven't done all of them yet but hopefully will get there soon.  The best thing though is that they are free! xx

The Drink I Like: Lucozade Pink Lemonade
I have a bottle of this nearly every time I have a HIIT workout to give me that short quick boost of energy.  



The Snack To Have For Post-Workout: Kallo Hot Paprika Rice cakes
I have one of these before I do any kind of workout as a post-workout and finish it off with a sip of Pink Lemonade.  

The Fitness Clothing To Add: Primark Sports Shoes
I love some of the designs Primark Workout do for their sports trainers.  I have ones that are green in the inside and grey on the outside.  I think they look really cool and are only £10 so not a fortune!

The Routine For August: I think I'll just be following Fitness Blender's HIIT workouts as well as practicing running as for school PE I had to run around the field a lot and over the season probably ran at least 3K.  It doesn't sound a lot to some people but I struggle a lot because of my asthma and so it makes things so much harder.  


Love to know your thoughts about your Fitness Routines in Summer xx

Makeup for Glass Wearers

Makeup for Glass Wearers 


Quite often I wear glasses myself so when wearing makeup you can't do the same without not standing out.  I have tried out different styles to help this and hopefully you will like this post.

Bold Colours
I think the bold colours should be focused on the lips because then that will be a statement to your face.  Go for a red berry shade or maybe a pink.  Save any nude shades for days when you're not wearing glasses.
Use Mascara
Having hearing that Mascara will stick to your glass lenses is rubbish and is anything but that.  Using Mascara helps to highlight your eyes really nicely.


Using Liner
The thicker your glass frames are the thicker the eyeliner line should be.  The same goes for the thin ones then you do the opposite.  This can look really nice and helps to define your eyes even when wearing glasses.
Add Shimmer
Glasses magnify your eyes a bit so adding shimmer is actually a great way for people to notice your eye makeup.  Add a bit of shimmer to the lower lid of your eyes.
Brows
Also when wearing glasses, always tint your brows and add clear gel to them so they look nice.  This helps stand out a bit more and even your face a bit.  Try shaping them to make them look better - get these done professionally!! x

Neutral Looks
Keep it simple and don't do any colorful makeup apart from your lips.  You can try adding a bit of blusher to your cheeks, but other than that keep it simple.


Hope you enjoyed this post.  Any other tips would be great to know xx

My Party-Ready Routine in 7 Steps

My Party-Ready Routine in 7 Steps


Recently, I've been out quite a lot to celebrate my relatives birthdays and also some of my friends.  I've been sticking to  a certain routine which helps me prepare for the party in just an hour without having to rush around which I often did before I set myself a routine for these particular nights!! 

Prep the Skin - 5 Minutes
I use a moisturizing cream to apply on my face and neck to keep my skin smooth and also to help apply my makeup evenly without any dry skin patches showing.  It's a good idea to also maybe have a quick face wash to get rid of any toxins which are clogged up.

Concealer - 5 Minutes
I like using Collection's Lasting Perfection Concealer as it lasts really well.  Put Concealer on any spots and red areas of your face and then blend it in.  I skip Foundation because it takes too much time and isn't necessary.

Sculpt - 10 Minutes
This can change your finishing touch on your face really well and can look really nice.  Highlight the tops of your cheekbones as well.  Any kit will do but the results are the most important.


Brows - 5 Minutes
I use Collection's Brow Kit in Brunette to quickly tint my brows and apply clear brow gel to coat the hairs.  It looks perfectly natural and are cheap.

Mascara - 5 Minutes
Use a eyelash curler and quickly curl your lashes to give that extra volume.  Then use a voluminous Mascara to get that stand-out effect.  It really does make a difference.  You can try adding some eyeliner because that also makes an even bigger difference but that will take more time so I skip that step.  
Also, don't do any eye makeup unless you know you have spare time.

Lips - 5 Minutes
Add lip balm to your lips so it moisturizes them before adding lipstick.  Vaseline is amazing and is my lip product hero.  Wait for a few seconds then apply some lipstick on.  I like to go for either a nude shade or a light berry colour.  They can look really nice.  I prefer lipstick to lip gloss - lip gloss is just too sticky for me.
Hair - 15 Minutes
The day before decide what kind of hair style you want so you don't end up spending lots of time trying to decide.  Most of the time I like using my curling wand to create a wavy look.  Be creative and try out different styles.

Clothes - 10 Minutes
Again, the day before decide what you want to wear for the party and get all the clothing, shoes and accessories out ready to wear for the night.  
These are my steps to preparing for the perfect night-out.  
How do you get ready for nights like this?  I'd love to know as always xx

This post has been inspired by one of my very special viewers who gave her opinion about what posts I could post for a bigger range of topics on my blog.  So thank you so much xx Hope you enjoy this post :)

My June Favourites

My June Favorites


Last year there were so many things I loved from beauty products to accessories.   I've never tried posting about my monthly favorites, but by being inspired by YouTubers I finally decided to do one x



Fave Book: Ten Things I've Learnt About Love by Sarah Butler
I love this book, basically a story about romance and family relationships.  I would recommend this as a Summer read for this year. 

Fave Snack: Kallo Hot Paprika Rice Cakes
These are really tasty and I like having 1 or 2 just before having to do a workout.  There's not much fat in them so is good for a post-snack.

Fave Scent: Angel Muse by Mugler
This is an amazing scent and I love it.  It's perfect for the Summer and adore it :)

Fave Skincare Product: Origins Deep Cleansing Mask With Green Tea and Spinach
This works really well for my skin and helps with the spots and gradually goes away.  I like to use this once a week in the weekend in the evenings just before I go to bed.   

Fave Beauty Product: Dior Forever Skin Perfecting Foundation
Out of all of them I like the liquid kind of foundation.  It works really nicely and using a foundation brush it looks so natural.  I wouldn't buy the whole bottle though considering the price is expensive.
Fave Meal: Delicious Weekend Salad
I have this salad every weekend for lunch and basically it is dressing, spinach and then topped with almonds.  I also add cucumbers, peppers and other vegetables.  It's healthy as well x

Fave Accessory: Gold Anklet by H Samuel
This looks really cute on the ankle and will be a trend for this Summer.  You can buy cheaper ones from online places.
Fave Shoes: Superga Maxmara Weekend Shoes
I find these shoes so stylish and are so versatile so I wear them with almost any clothing daily.  

Fave Hair Hero: Invisibobble Hairbands
These hairbands don't damage your hair unlike the other ones.  They are more expensive the other ones but are really worth investing in the long run. 
Fave Nail Polish: BarryM Speedy Quick Dry in Road Rage 517
The colour of this nail polish I think is really pretty and I am a big fan of anything pastel-coloured.  I have a few other pastel ones in my makeup draws.

My Weekly Blogging Routine

My Weekly Blogging Routine 


I recently wrote down and planned my blogging routine which I managed to fit in my routine weekly. I'm really excited and in just less than one month I've managed to build up 1200 viewers from internationally across the world which I feel is so amazing.
I'm hoping you can all see on my blog when I post so please do come back on those days for the new posts! xx



Monday: On Monday I like to check my emails and messages from my viewers which I get every now and then throughout this month which is so delightful.  Feel free to comment below any of my posts and I will comment back x

Tuesday: During the evening I like to check my stats and also chat to some of my viewers.  I have one viewer who I talk to nearly every evening about general things from beauty and to life.  It's wonderful because I get to know her really well even though we don't share any personal details.

Wednesday: I like to think of Wednesday as my Editing Day where I look at my posts and give any post a little tweak if needed to be.  If not I just relax with some cookies and a drink x

Thursday: This is my planning day where I think about what to post in for this weekend.  I have random inspirations all the time so always carry a pen and piece of paper to write down any inspirations.  I sometimes ask my viewers what kind of posts they want and I would write about them!

Friday: Friday is also my planning day a bit like Thursday.  I also take inspirations from my favorite YouTubers like Zoella and Tanya Burr.



Saturday: This is my favorite day of in a week because it's my Post Day!  I tend to post up to 3 posts but have a minimum of 1 post in a weekend.  Obviously, when I'm on holiday I can't post so I'm hoping to get a laptop soon so it will be easier but if not I do extra posts the next week to make it all up xx

Sunday: Occasionally, I post on Sunday if I didn't have enough time on Saturday or because it is just a lovely treat x

I hope you liked this post because it will make it easier for you and me.  Now you'll know when I post and respond to your comment there shouldn't be any delays.

My Morning Weekend Skincare Routine

My Morning Weekend Skincare Routine 


In the weekdays I still pay lots of attention to my skin but I only add in moisturizer as I'm often in a rush to school.  In the weekends I can relax a bit more and add cleansers to my routine and also serums.  I use a range of different beauty brands for different products but my favorites come from Origins and their products are just amazing.  



Face Wash
I love the fresh feeling of having a face wash which is then rinsed off with cool water.  I like to use Olay Refreshing Facial Cleansing Gel 150ml £2.69 from Boots.  It lasts for a good amount of time and helps me to wake up from the mornings.  It has Cucumber and Aloe Vera extracts which helps with maintaining smooth skin.
Cleanser
Cleansers help with cleansing the whole of my face and they can smell really nice like the one I buy from Origins.  This one is really good and I think it's one of the best I've ever come across.   It's recommend for dry skin but I think its works for all skin types: Foaming Deep Cleansing Mask With Green Tea, Spriulina and Spinach Origins 70ml £32.00
Toner 
I like to use Nivea Daily Essentials Refreshing Toner 200ml £2.69.  I use a cotton wool ball to apply this on my face.  I sometimes skip this step but it doesn't really matter as long as I incorporate it in some of my routines.
Serum
I like to use the Canadian Vitamin C Natural and Organic Serum £49.99.  It's really expensive but because it's organic it doesn't have chemicals in the product.  I'm slowly trying to find organic and natural beauty skincare products so that I don't have any chemicals in my body.
Moisturizer
I use Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Shine Control Day Moisturizer £3.59.  The ingredients in this are good for the skin but now I'm trying to find an organic and natural one on the internet.
Eye Cream
I used Tinted Wonder Eye Cream Balance Me £20.  It's really good and I think using eye cream from a really young age helps prevents wrinkles.  It's also tinted so comes in a skin kind of colour so acts like my light concealer.  
This is basically my skincare routine for my Saturdays and Sundays x

My Summer Wishlist 2016

My Summer Wishlist 2016


There's been quite a few things I've wanted for this Summer whether they are fashion items or beauty products.  Some of them are expensive so I'm trying to do extra house chores for some money x

 

Bobbi Brown Basic Brush Collection £145.00
I've wanted a set of makeup brushes for sometime now.  I know Real Techniques and MAC do good ones but I thought for going for an even higher brand and the brushes itself are soft and fluffy.  There are 6 basic brushes in a bag which is great because I can use them for traveling as well which would be useful.  

 

Bobbi Brown University Eye Palette £49.00
I like the shades they have in the palette and there are so many ranging from sparkly shades to dark tones.  I think it looks so pretty and has a large mirror in the compact so would be easy to apply when traveling. 

The Luxe Life Book £13.29
This book is written by Fleur De Force who is one of my favourite You Tubers and I have her other book The Glam Guide and I really enjoyed reading it.  I hope to get this book as soon as I can once I have bought other stuff from my wishlist list.
Origins GinZing Energy Boosting Moisturizer £24.00 
 Lots of bloggers and You Tubers have recommend this so I considered for while whether investing in this or not but now I've decided to do so because it's good for the price and has been recommend so widely.


ASOS Scuplt Me Plunge Playsuit With Back Detail £35.00
The colour looks gorgeous and I love the design on the whole play suit.  I am a big fan of play suits and have a few in my wardrobe.  I like the back bit of the design especially x
ASOS Kate Lace Mini Dress £45.00
I like the navy blue colour on the dress and think it looks really cute.  I go out quite a lot on parties and out to Winchester which is a posh place nearby where I live so wearing this I do think it's over the top.
These are basically all the things I would love to have by this Summer so I'm saving up as much as possible to buy these items!  There will be more posts next weekend xx

What's In My June Makeup Bag

What's In My June Makeup Bag


This month I went to the drugstore to see what I could get there for a reasonable price but products which work really well.  The outcome was really good and the prices there range from cheap to quite expensive which is good.  I like shopping in Superdrug and Boots most and they always have the latest beauty products out there.

 

Collection Volumising  Mascara £3.99
It's really reasonable and the mascara itself works well if you are just quickly applying some on.  If you were to go to a party then I would invest in something a bit higher quality but for everyday it would work perfectly and it doesn't clump up like some mascaras I've tried on before.

Yes to Cucumbers 30 Soothing Hypo-allergic Facial Wipes £3.99
These makeup wipes are amazing and smell quite nice.  They have different ones like Tomato and Grapefruit which I yet haven't tried.  They are really moisturizing and don't burn my eyes like some do when I remove any eye makeup.  I find that Simple makeup wipes don't work for me so these are great.

Collection Eyebrow Kit Brunette £3.99
If you are just starting to work on your brows then I think this is a great starter kit because it comes with a little mirror in the compact, an angled brush, clear eyebrow mascara and then 3 different shades of brow powder.  I think it works fine and it's lasted well.
The whole compact is small so I like having it in my makeup bag.

Revlon ColorBurst  Matte Balm £7.99
This is the best matte lip crayon I've come across and the price is reasonable.  I like the shade Fiery 270 as it's a deep berry kind and great for Autumn and Winter.  I still keep it in my June Makeup Bag because when just adding a different look this is perfect.  It has a slight minty scent to it and has a lovely creamy texture on the lips.

 

Natural Collection Pressed Powder £1.99
The price is so cheap and it works fine with a nice finish.  I find the Cool shade works for my skin tone.   It's gentle and not heavy at all on my face. 

No 7 Moisture Drench Sugar Plum £9.95
This is a beautiful colour and isn't too dark but has the amazing effect on my lips so my whole look is different.  It stands out quite nicely and complements many of my outfits. 

L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Made For Me £6.99
I love the nude colour which I have in the shade of Nude Tender Rose.  I've worn this so much now and it's really light on my lips.  The application is smooth and moisturizes my lips.

The Prologue Of This Blog

The Prologue Of This Blog 


Hello World!
I have started this blog hoping it will build stats up and so I can share the wonderful world of my beauty and fashion tips.  I have had other blogs in the past but I never had the time to continue them.  Now that I have lots of free time everything would be up to date and easier.  I had one blog which was also my latest one which I loved and built up quite a lot of stats but the focus on that was too much on beauty so I wanted to vary it more which is my focus for this blog.
I hope you will start to love this blog like I do x


I have been inspired by YouTubers and Bloggers for over a year now and I wasn't too sure about starting a YouTube Channel so instead I went up for a blog.  Some of the YouTubers who have inspired me most are: InTheFrow, Fleur De Force, Caspar Lee, ThatcherJoe, Zoella and Tanya Burr. x

I am a 13 year old girl who enjoys beauty and fashion like most other teenage girls.  I spend my spare time researching about beauty products and different fashion look-books.  Other times, I am out with my friends going to Costa or shopping - either way it's something which I love spending my time on.  I have a younger sister which I like to do different hairstyles on her - basically practicing! 
I also have an older sister and older brother xx

So these are just a few things about me and the introduction of my blog.  I hope you will enjoy reading this blog and it will be kept up to date!
