My Summer 2016 Q&A

My Summer 2016 Q&A 

I have never done a Q&A before but I thought it would be nice to do one for you all.  Basically I have picked a few random questions so you can get to know me a little bit better.  Hope you enjoy this post! xx

How old are you?

I turned 13 this February so officially a teenager finally :)

Do you have any pets?

No, I used to have a guinea pig named Harry and he was the best present ever.  RIP Harry xx

What's your craft obsession?

I love making my own festive and birthday cards and the end result looks so cool.  It's enjoyable and my relatives love them and the thought is always in those cards.

Where's your Dream Destination?

I'm not to sure but I would love to go to Dubai or LA for a change.

Are you planning to go anywhere this Summer?

I'm going to Italy this beginning of August which will be exciting.  My parents are also planning to go somewhere like Dorset maybe Kent.

What are the 3 things you can't live without?

My family and friends, dark chocolate and probably my blog x

What's your favorite sport?

 I'm not a fan of sport at all but if I had to choose probably swimming or just casual training in the gym.

What inspired you to start a blog?

I was inspired by lots of YouTubers but all in blog content xx

These are just some of the really basic questions viewers ask me often.  The next Q&A should hopefully have more varied questions xx

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!
