BEAUTY: make up revolution lips



1 POUND LIPS YOU SAY? I POUND LIPS? yes you heard right make up revolution lipsticks are 1 pound! When i heard about this i was so skeptical about how the quality was going to be, but by my i don't think ill by buying any mac lipsticks in these colours in a while. When it comes to make up I'm a bit of a snob wanting the high end expensive one, is it just me? anyway, now iv been introduced to the world of this cheap and very very cheer full make up,i must say I'm swooning over it all. 

As i normally spend over £12 for a good lipstick i am now wondering if its worth the money as i could buy 12 of these for just that one. I am so exited to wear these shade and see how they look as I'm the new lover of lipstick now over the year of 2014. Over all I'm pleased with the price, quality and colour of these.

On the blogging side of things I am hoping to start showing more make up looks over this month and see how it goes, as I'm wanting to show more of how my make up is and I'm becoming such a addict, anyway let me know how you feel about that, let me know in the comments. Thanks for reading.

BEAUTY: Sleek new eye brows



As most of my friends and family may be aware of, my eyes brows have to be a certain way, i try out every product in every colour to find the one i love the most! Right now i am loving the sleek eyebrow palette in light. I had seen this brand in super drug i though id try it out as id seen a few reviews about it, for the price i was so amazed, by far the best colour i have found yet. When i am normally looking for an eyebrow colour they are mainly pretty dark and quite reddy this has no hint of red in. It comes with a gel one and a powder, for me i don't use pencil and i don't use gel because in my opinion they don't work for me and they don't leave my eye brows how i like them. Although these times are changing and this gel is the perfect consistency to make them look natural and sleek on your face without being to "overpowering'. Over all i love this product and will be using it till it run outs, actually I'm going to make that my task, because iv never used anything up, so yeah I'm going to do that. 

Yes as i was saying i love this product, i love how it sits on your skin and the way its so flexible on how you use it, this is one product i would go and tell you to buy buy buy, because if your like my and your eyes brows have to be on point then you will love this product to pieces. Also if your wondering how picky i am with my eye brows, when i go out of have my make up done i have to do my own eye brows with my own products or i will not go anywhere (oppps). So have you liked anything this month in the eyebrow department or have anything you'd like to recommend? Thanks for reading lovelys!

BEAUTY: The Yorkshire soup co




Hello my lovelies, its been sooo long since i did my last blog post, nearly a month, but im back and written up all my blogposts now i just need to take the pictures. Personal stuff have come up in my life and blogging had to be out aside for abit but im back so watch this space. Today im talking about the most beautiful soups known to this planet which is the yorkshire soup co, their soups are amazing and look so edible like little cakes! When i first walked into this shop i was like "wow" the smell hit you in the face and then its just blew you away, walking about the shop looking at these massive cakes of soup, i just had to get my hands on some! 

Because the are so pretty i don't want to use them due to them being beautiful, and perfect, but i have such a lovely thing of which im going to do at christmas and then i will have to use them becausd i want to see if their beautiful scent will match up to their beautiful pressence in my bedrook side, which fills my room with a gorgeous smell, more than whats a air freshioner can do for sure! I have some to the conclusion that its going to have to give me such tempration and paid to ruin something so cute. I dont know how they do this but who actually knew soups could look so edible? Because there so small, they can be perfect for a birthday pressent plus for £9 for a box you really cannot go round when you look about £20 for box! 

Have any of you ever tried out some of thsse, if you have tell me so it can give me more tempration to use them ratger than the smell everything i open then box just to look at the and smile! Thank for reading lovelies.

REVIEW: elf Tined Moisturiser



Over the last coming year iv battled the troubles of my skin... As its getting better i have had to make various changes to my skin and what i put on it. This is resulting as how quickly it changes i am only using my other products about 10 times before changing it again. This one is new to me, iv actually never use a tinted moisturiser before this. When thinking of tinted i never really though it would give me a good coverage it would just look abit blotchy (if you get me) but i was looking on the elf website and thought id buy one for only less than £5! Bargain or what? As iv probably said in previous posts that my skins doesnt act very well to cheap products, but this completley different. I do have to put my bare minerals conceler underneath this but only to cover up some scars my spots have left but it so much nicer to have a light product on my face than foundation!

Although before i purchace another one of these im going to have to use is my mac foundation id previously brought before which does work wonders and is such a good coversage for such a small amount you need so that will be coming up in my blog some time soon! As it goes with elf make up iv definatly been buying some more when iv been away which will hopefully arive when i get back, which ja one of the baked blushes. Ive heard so much about these and i dont usually use blushes as i find there to pink in my skin but thjs peach colous seems just right into not being to over powering on my tanned skin. So i cant wait to share that with you! 

Have you tried any tinted moistisers from eyes lips face, or any others? Id love to know which ones are worth the money and will give me a good look into finding something better? But over all i give this product 10 thumbs up as for the prices is such an amazing quality!

FASHION: My ASOS Wishlist


To the back end of May I did I post to which was the shoes I was swooning over from ASOS and this blog post is back! I love it when people do these sorts of post and to me shoes are my favourite and what's the best way to look than ASOS? When you see people wearing something and they do a Wishlist or a outfit post it just get my so exited that I finally know where to find something I love! 

As the summer (or not so summer in Yorkshire) is coming to a dismal end I decided I wanted to find the shoes to which I love and which I'd got for my holiday and will be purchasing when I get back (especially number 3) ready for next years holidays! Some of these shoes are good for all year round I would say...unless it's snowing then wellies will probably be on the cards. You can pear then up with some frilly socks or have them bare foot depending on what weathers going to be coming your way! 

This is just a quick post while I am away, hope you all are having an amazing last 2 weeks of your summer break (I know I am)

LIFE: Lanzarote Not Lanzagrote





























Hello all, a couple of week ago i jetted off to Lanzarote, before i went people said to me that when they went they didn't like it. But… that all changed when i hit down in Playa Blanca, this was honestly the best holiday ever. I wish i was there for longer but holidays have to end, as they do every year,  although it was cloudy that didn't stop the heat and the tan from coming. This holiday was so relaxing and i felt it was so well needed from everything that was going on that i had to get away. 

On this wonderful holiday, the best part was the views, everywhere you went there was something different to look at and take a sneaky picture off. I loved the people and the hotel, it was just my sort of style… Posh (opps..). I spend everyday relaxing and sunbathing while having some fantastic meals in the process, and visiting the market the second to last day, that was the most beautiful place every just packed with beautiful spanish products hand made, i wanted everything… even if they were tat. 

I am doing a holiday sort of story, as I'm going on 3 amazing holidays. Have you ever been to Lanzarote? or are you going on holiday? I'd love to hear if you've been going on holiday this year! Thank for reading lovelies. 

Heres my outfit post from my holiday

WHAT I WORE: The Sea Of Blue & White





A couple of days ago i came back from my amazing holiday in Lanzarote, although it was cloudy most the time it was a boiling hot! I only managed to get 1 outfit picture while i was away but hopefully will be getting loads more on my other 2 sunny holidays away. a lot of blog post will be up as my minds be going crazy and i had to write them all down! 

Anyhoo, back to the outfit. This photo was taken on one of the last nights of the holiday, i love this outfit. Although now i don't really go for short skirt but this has been my topshop favourite skirt which i had last summer, it was was perfect for this weather as it was to humid to have anything else tight on your body, plus it really fitting around my waist which i love, as i have trouble with that. I topped to with  a beautiful see though top from Next, i saw it and had to buy it, its so beautiful and i love the pattern, right? I don't like see though tops so i always have to have a vest top underneath it all. Well now the shoes and my kimono, these were picked up from primark, can you actually believe it? The cost a total of £20, the shoes i love there so beautiful and they go with everything. I could say they are the most comfiest shoes i have brought plus they were defiantly my staple piece of these summer months, as since iv been back the weather been spot on for me in Sheffield. The kimono, every ones going on about this item of clothing, tbh i wouldn't really wear then apart from this holiday as they really do nothing to my figure. But as i say so this I'm glad i brought this item as it did get quite chilly on a night with the wind. 

As my other holidays are coming up I'm going to do a look book of all my outfits then post them everyday when I'm away as i will have wifi, or when i get home but i haven't decide. so let me know what you think in the comments or though email or you can give me any suggestion? Have any off you been on holiday (abroad or in the same country) what you staple piece of the holiday and summer days?

BEAUTY: June Beauty Favourites


This is my first monthly favourites blog post, so I'm hoping you all will like it. Well lets get started. Some of these products i have been using for quite a while now and some i have brought over the month of June, as you can see all these products are what you would or i do use on my daily morning and evening routine. 

Lush Tea Tree Toner Water


I came across this product a couple of month ago, as I've said before i didn't like it as the beginning but not i can't go a day and night with out using it. It helps my spots stay at bay and when I'm not using it i can defiantly tell, my skins lives off it. I use this buy spraying it on cotton pad i don't tend to spray it on my face unless i feel like i haven't got all my make up off or i want to just let my skin seek in the goodness. When i first was in the beauty world i never really knew what a toner did really or if you really needed it, same with a cleanser i was oblivious to how key it is to have a good skin care routine which is going to benefit you skin, this is why over the years iv come out with spots and the just won't shift. This product could be used for all skin types i would say but id check if you have dry skin, my skins normal so i don't have to worry about this. As you can see iv got a 250g bottle, i originally had the smaller one but that just ran out to quickly so for my 18th birthday i got a lush voucher of £20 so i was hesitating to treat my skin to a massive bottle, which will last twice as long and maybe save me a little money as well. 

The Body Shop Tea Tree oil & Id Atomatics Tea Tree Oil


Well where i can i start with these products, it is my saver, iv already done a post on The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil  which is up on my blog, i only use this product when i put my make up on because it doesn't smell and dries really quickly. I put it on after iv toned my skin because while my make up is on it seem to work and help my spots, i love this product and i also use the pore minimiser as well which is an amazing product. The other one is the this id aromatic tea tree oil, i use this before i go to bed, it is the strongest smell ever, you can tell the difference with them, this is so much more natural for your skin. I got this at a shop in Leeds Centre, West Yorkshire near the train station. If you ever have troubled skin pure tea tree oil is the way forward, i would recommend you get one like that from a shop as its so much more cheaper and has so much more smell and makes such a difference. 

Lush Ultrabland Cleanser


I've recently done a blog post on this just this week actually here so i won't go into much detail. This is the best cleaners ever, i am hoping when my skin improve to try out some more products but this has really sorted my skin and really given it a boot up the arse and told it to kick it into gear. If you want to read more click on the like. 

Mask of Magnaminty


This is the best face mask ever, i used to use it when all over my skin, but i took a rest from it a couple of weeks a go to use this other face mask from lush which helps your skin. Now I've started using it again i only use it on my spots, or where can just see one going to be coming up through the skin, i don't tend to use it all over my skin now unless my skin really really needs it. When you put it on your face you can feel it working as the peppermint is seeking through your skin and it can feel you face tighten… i love it. I doesn't solve redness in my eyes as my spot are still red and flat but if i have break out then it solves it with in 10 min. just perfect. i use this up to 3 times a week. my skin isn't normally faced by harsh chemical or products it just soothes it and cleanses your skin so if you haven't got all your making up off i can guarantee it will be off by the end of this on your face. 

Garnier Fresh Eye Make-up Remover


Well i can't really say anything about this product as iv only really use it for my bottom eyelashes as iv got extension on the top. After iv quite the wipes and changed to this i can defiantly tell the difference. If you do use wipes to take your eye make up off id switch. I use to to use eye pad to take my make up off as i felt like water removed went into my eyes as its hurt a lot :(, but when i use this sometimes the mascara from my bottom lashes so since this doesn't have any oil its perfect to just get the left overs on my extensions. Its only a small bottle but you only need a small amount so no hassle in wanting to by some more like wipes. 

When my skin improve i do think ill be using this products again and these have dramatically changed my skin though out the whole of June, right now I'm panicking for my holiday, I'm going on Thursday and still haven't go anything pack or sorted and still got to get the rest of my bits and bobs for my suitcase plus my bikini body still isn't ready to my standards but these are thing you have have to live with… any way i hope you all have a brilliant rest of the week, and i will be back to post my last blog post for a week while I'm away, so when i get back they'll be a lot of outfit posts to be up on!

Lush Ultrabland 1 Month Trial




About a month ago i went into lush searching for my other favourite product Herbalism, the kind man came up to me and showed me everything to do for troubled skin and i was amazed. He said this would work wonders on my skin if i used nothing but it for a month (like i say on the bottom picture) so i did, i would say it has defiantly improved my skin and made it break out less but if i don't use it for one night i can tell the effect it has on my skin. I use this by first taking off my mascara on my bottom lashes (i have extensions on my top so review will be use very soon) then i apply this all over my face massaging it into my skin until i can tell all of my make up is socked up onto the greasy substance… after I've done that i went get a warm facial cloth and wipe it off, i do find that i have to basically wash it every times i use it all it sticks into the cloth and doesn't come off. I would recommend this but only for people who have like blemishes or spots that don't come up as red as it does nothing for red spots. 

My spots are red but are flat so i wouldn't call them spots really so my search for a product to reduce the redness it still on my hunt, I'm hoping that then i go away for a week in a couple of day they will bring them down a bit… hoping. For people who read my blog consistently will know i haven't been blogging much this is due to not having my laptop (boo!!), but before i go away I've got a blog post everyday and some ideas on outfit posts that will be shown to you tomorrow on that post…so stay tuned my lovelies.
