It's very natural and looks day time appropriate.

SEVENTEEN MEGA MATTE LIPSTICK

Image
Hi Guys! I have recently signed up to the seventeen blogger network. I love being a part of the network as it gives me so many tips and advice. They recently invited me to a blogger event however I sadly couldn't make it. They then went on to very kindly send me two Mega Matte Lipsticks. The colours they sent me are so pretty. If you didn't know, these lipstick have more or less just come out! They sent me 'Back To The Fuchsia' and also 'Violet Summer'. The names are super cool. I don't have a super bright purple or pink matte lipstick so I am certainily in love with these. I'm lipstick mad!!! I have tried them out and they look super cool on. The purple is the easiest to apply although you do need to add a couple of coats to get a good colour pay off. The pink, takes a bit of work to apply however, it is a beautiful colour. I absolutely adore them. The pink is matte through out whilst the purple one is matte however, has a purply, ...

REVIEW: NYX SOFT MATTE LIP CREME

Image
Hi guys! I'm not sure why but lately I have been absolutly loving matte liquid lipsticks. I still enjoy wearing glossier lipsticks however at the moment, my favourites are matte. I love the way they leave your lips looking. The only down side to matte liquid lipstick is that they can leave your lips feeling quiet dry and, can occasionally cause your lips to stick together. It doesn't bother me to much but I would prefer it if they didn't. Any way, I have a few favourites brands but today, I want to tell you about my all time favourite affordable brand which is NYX. They are call NYX Matte Lip Cream. I love how easy they are to apply and I am a huge fan of the applicator. I think I apply these better than I can apply most of my liquid lipsticks. The product just seems to glide on and, it doesn't look streaky in the slightest. I have also found that they last for quite a while. Not as well as the more expensive brands but they still last for a good while. I receiv...

WHAT I GOT FOR MY BIRTHDAY | 2016

Image
Hi guys! This time last week I turned 20 years old! People say you feel really grown up when you turn 20 but to be honest, I still feel the same. I think it's because I don't have any major responsibilities such as a house to pay for etc.  Due to it being my birthday I was able to choose what we all ate for tea (this is something we have done since I was little). It would be no surprise to you if you have read my blog or watched my videos, that I chose crepes AKA pancakes! It's my favourite food so of course I had to. My Nanna and Grandad also got me a lovely cake which we devoured in two days!  I had such a lovely birthday and, I am lucky to of revived such lovely gifts from my family and boyfriend. I appreciate everything and I am ever so thankful to them for making my day wonderful.  The gifts I kindly received are; Alice through the looking glass eye shadow palette (from...

HOW TO DEEP CLEAN MAKE-UP BRUSHES

Image
Hi guys Today I thought I would write a blog post about how I deep clean my makeup brushes. Seen as our make-up brushes work very hard, I thought it would be a good idea to thouroughly clean them. Cleaning them is important as our face harbours bacteria so when we applying foundation that bacteria is going onto the brush which we are then rubbing on our face!! Sounds pretty horrible saying it like that! So anyway, I like to clean my brushes at least once a week. It's one of those tasks I dread doing. I find it so boring and monotonous but, I know it has to be done.  I occasionally go longer without cleaning them but then it feels disgusting rubbing a dirty brush all over my face and I also  feel as though you don't get the application you desire. Well so I think. I clean my brushes by using one of two products (sometimes I use both). The first product I use is Johnson's Baby Shampoo and the other is the Real Techniques Brushing Cleansing Gel. ...

FOUR QUICK AND EASY HAIR STYLES

Image
Hi guys!! As it's Wednesday, todays Blog is going to be beauty related. So I was wondering what to film and blog about today. At first I was going to show you all how I clean my make-up brushes but by the time I got round to filming they wouldn't of been dry in time for tomorrow. So I began to play around with my hair and then the idea popped into my head so, as you can tell my the name of this blog, I did four quick and easy hairstyles. You don't need to be expert as these as i certainly am not. Hair style one - Messy Pony Tail This is simple. Brush your hair through and then top your head upside down. Tie a bobble at the top of your head to create a high pony tail. Then pull at the hair to make it look messy. Hair style two: Half Up Pony Tail Tie half of your hair into a pony tail (the front half)  Then use your finger to make the front of it appear messy and undone. This is a good style to keep the fridge out of your eyes. Hair style three: The first s...

FESTIVAL MAKE-UP | GRWM ♡

Image
Hi guys! In a few months festival season will begin here in the UK. We have a lot of festivals that take place in the UK, from Glastonbury to V festival. Personally I have never been into festivals but, I love the make-up. It's outgoing and colourful. I have been playing around with my make-up and wondered how i could make my make-up appear festival like so, I came up with this idea. Natural eye make-up with a long wing and then blue under my water line. I love the way it turned out. I think i am slightly obsessed with it. I have blue eye and it makes them look a bit darker which doesn't bother me. When going to festivals you want something that will last a long time. So go for the water proofs. If you are really outgoing you could wear this look whenever. I think i'd be a bit to nervous... Any way, here is what i used to create the make-up look. What i used: Collection - Prime and Ready Urban Decay- Eye primer Ben Nye - Compact eyeshadow in Cork Ben N...

SOAP AND GLORY CLEANSING MILK | REVIEW

Image
Hi guys! For a very long time I have been using the Kaeso cleanser, toner and moisturise. We began to use them at college and I loved them. Using the three products together made my skin feel very soft and it made me feel relaxed. About a month ago my boyfriends mum bought me a soap and glory gift set. I don't often use a lot of soap and glory products but I am deffinatly going to start using them. In the gift set was a cleanser that claims to melt away make-up. The first time i tried using it I absolutely loved it!! I have been using it every day for about three weeks. The scent of the product is peachy. It literally smells edible. The main thing I like about the cleanser is that it makes your skin feel really clean and tingly/cold. It feels like it has done a good job.  My skin is fairly sensitive but this product works really well with my skin. It doesn't make it feel dry or tight. How i use it: I squirt one pump onto my hand and rub it all over my face. I then tak...

NO MIRROR MAKE-UP CHALLENGE ♡ 2016

Image
Hi guys!! Recently I have been loving to watch the no mirror make-up challenges. They look like so much fun and they also look super hard. I wanted to give it a go so, today i took to filming the no mirror make-up challenge. It was very hard. I don't know how people manage to successfully apply liquid eyeliner without a mirror. To be honest i struggle to apply it with a mirror!! I'm not sure if i would give it another go as it is really hard and awkward as you aren't sure where to look but maybe one day...  When doing the challenge I realised how hard it must be for those who are either blind or have extremely bad eye sight. Products I used: Smash Box photo finish primer water Chi Chi fabulous and flawless foundation in 0.5 Porcelain. Collection lasting perfection concelar in Fair 1. Chi Chi naturals / sun kiss palette. Rimmel London liquid eyeliner in Black. Soap And Glory Archery eye brow pencil in Blonde. Rimmel London eyebrow masca...

NATURAL DAY TIME MAKE-UP ♡

Image
Hi guys!! It's Wednesday so that means it's blog day. I know i have been slacking these past few weeks with blogs as i am coming towards the end of my college diploma so, i am working my butt off to gain distinctions. I only have two finals left now YAY.   Early on today I was playing around with my make-up so decided to film a chit chat get ready with me. As i haven't filmed one of these in a while. I aimed to go for a natural look and a winged eye. I really like how the look turned out but, you can't see the colour pay off really. I used mainly drug store make-up however i used high end for contouring and highlighting. I still need to get my hands on the NYX contour palette, It looks so good.  What i used and where you can get them from: Smash box Photo Finish Primer Water L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Primer Sellotape. This can be purchased from any supermarket or corner shop. Chichi cosmetics Naturals Eyeshadow Palette Rimmel Glam Eyes Liquid E...

Interview Hair and Makeup

Image
Hi guys! This week i have an interview for a job i have applied for. I hate interviews as i get super nervous and anxious. I find it really hard trying to make sure that my anxiety is under control. My boyfriend came to the interview with me so i felt more comfortable on the journey there and also for support (obviously he didn't come in the room).  I wanted to share with you how i had my hair and makeup for the interview. It's important not to have dramatic makeup. The more natural you are the better. They won't like it if you turn up bright orange with eyelashes half hanging off. For my hair i literally brushed it through and shoved it into a high pony tail. It looked smart and appropriate. The photos were taken after wards so it looks a bit scruffy now. I also have to much baby hair!! When attending an interview i always try to make my self appear confident. I introduced my self and then told the interviewer(s) i was pleased to meet them. That way they wil...
