Mac and Rimmel Review

In this blog post I am going to review a few make up brands I have been using.  


First is the 'Wake me up concealer’ Rimmel London . I know I am a behind on getting this but I have been trying other brands for concealer but Rimmel is defiantly the one I will always go back to. I brought this in boots for £5.49 and it’s the best £5.49 I have ever spent. The coverage is amazing for blemishes, under the eye circles and spots. Its long lasting and matches my skin tone perfectly but with a slight glow to it. Its not heavy on the skin. It feels like you haven’t got make up on which is what I want. Down below are some photos so you can see how it works


                                                             BEFORE


                                                               DURING



                                                               AFTER



                  Next review: MAC brow pencil


 WOW, so I have only just purchased this item but as soon as I put it on my brows I knew this was my new love. Mac’s colour matching is amazing it’s a natural looking not like you have just drawn them on with a whiteboard marker. Its light and easy to apply you don’t have to be a professional. At £13.50 its really good price, my friend recommend a Clinique one at £17 and I thought it was a bit to pricey I want to spend less than £15 and Mac was not my first thought I went to Covent garden and my mum took me in and I am so pleased I brought it. BUT, with all this greatness yes there is a large fault. I was looking at the pencil once I had brought it and on my way home, to find that when you turn up the pencil as it’s a self sharping one you cant turn it back down, luckily I had only turned it up a very small amount to look at it but then some people must turn it up high to look then realize there’s no way to turn it back down. First I though I had a faulty one, but no that’s just how there made. Here’s another review photo

Outfit of the day

    

   

  



                    
          This is a quick outfit post as this is one of my favourite looks and I just got the rucksack in the pictures so I wanted to try some outfits with it. My scarf is from Newlook -They don't sell it anymore as I got it back at christmas. The funnel top is from Topshop it was £10. Jeans are from Asda they were £16. Rucksack was £22.99 from Newlook. Watch was from UrbanOutfitters it was £29 but I got a 20% of discount with the ELLE magazine. My bracelet is from a  jewellers I got it at my christening when I was younger so I don't know the price. Hope you like this blog post it was only quick.

Stella McCartney The print collection Review


                   
      

Hi I haven't posted in a while I have been so busy. My reviews of items get quite a few views so I thought I would do another one of one of my favourite perfumes ever! It's the Stella McCartney print collection. It's AMAZING. And you won't believe the amount of compliments I have got from this and as I am still at school everyone wants a bit of everyone's perfume or spray. My dad brought me this about 2 years ago and I never really got into it but this past year it's my go to perfume and it's always in my handbag it's also good as my school doesn't aloud spray but we can have perfume so I can put it on every once in a while. I really recommend it and it's quite pricey at £28 but it last so long! It's a limited edition but I did manage to find a website for you guys so you should check it out. Hope you like this blog post and I am back now and I am going to do LOADS more blogs as it's half term so keep a look out.

New year resolution

                                              Happy new year !
What a great year it's been and like every year I set my New Years resolutions.

Number one-

Do well in school and my grades- 
At the moment I am doing my Art GCSE and it's hard and you have to put it so many extra hours. Then at the same time you still have all your other subjects and exams going on so I get quite stressed. I know everyone one is going through the same thing but I don't know how to deal with it so my aim is to find away.

Stop biting my nails- 
I am not really bad and my nails are fine but every once in a while when I am just daydreaming it just seems to happen I never used to bite my nails but last year it just appeared. 

Blog- 
I need to stay active, post as often as I can. Have fun in my blog, be creative. Aim for goals and try new things which links to my next one. 

Being confident-
 This will be my hardest one, I find it hard talking to new people I am not a person who hates people and just ignores everyone, it's just not my thing. Sometimes I am like whatever I'll talk to anyone but sometimes for example my mum went 'next week we're going to meet (name) a girl who I haven't met before and they have a daughter the same age as you. At those situations I am like no. And I get quite self contusions but again most people do sometimes I just think everyone is just staring. But I am starting to achieve that one, so that's good.

I just wanted to share my new year resolution and maybe you may share the same ones. Comment below your ones or if you have the same one. 
       Bye X X X

My first time with lush - Review


I got this lush product as a secret Santa gift last week. I have never had a lush product  before I have been needing to buy some but haven't  got round to it, when I was given  this bubble bar. I was so excited to try it out. 
As I said just now I had never had one of these so I didn't know what to do with it,  my friends all said split in half so you don't waste it all, so I did, then it was 'make sure you drop it under the tap' so that's what I did but the key thing they forgot to mention was crumple it up into the bath water. 
I was so excited to try it, I had seen my friends all showing pictures and videos of there lush bath bombs(bit weird I know), so I filmed my.
Little did I know nothing was going to happen? I got really confused it just sunk? I was expecting a large fizz with colour everywhere, nothing happened just plop. I sat there waiting for bubbles to appear. Nothing so I asked my friend she was like, ohh did you crumble it? What none told me that! So I did, the bath turned bright pink bubbles floating around, it was lovely. It smelt like black current and summer fruit my favourite scent, which is probably why she brought it.(It's usually useful to get a smell your friend likes.) For my first lush bath it was amazing I am defiantly going to get some more ASAP. I really recommend this product links here-  https://www.lush.co.uk/products/comforter

Meeting ZOELLA!!


I went to the zoella book signing and I have never been so excited in my whole life. It was amazing I only queued for 1 and half hours and that was quick compared to most people. The men and woman that worked their came round with the books for us to read while waiting and brought round quality streets it was such a nice atmosphere. When it was time for me to meet her it was over in seconds(which isn't bad by the way). I had just met the young woman that has inspired me for pretty much everything, who videos I watch every night, the one to inspired me to make this blog. And I was lucky enough to meet her and get my booked signed, she was the most beautiful and kindest girl I had ever meet and I am still smiling. And I am so proud of her, and have been since day one and on behalf of many people thank you, even though she want be reading this,I just wanted to show support.

Dog walk in the countryside




I have quick photography dog walk post for You I went on a walk through the woods with my family and my dog, we really only do this curtain route once a year when its autumn/winter and is one of my favourite walks. I think the woods and countryside is a great place to take photos as you can capture many parts, as every part is different. The walk is quite a long way and at the end my dog goes and jumps into the river, realize its to cold jumps back out just before we go out for lunch.Once we had reached the end of the walk we cleaned off are muddy wellies, and went into a pub for a nice Sunday roast by the fire a great way to end a Productive day.

Clinique skin care


I went to London this week and popped in to the Clinique lab in Covert Garden. I had never been before and it said free samples my first reaction Is, I need to go inside! So I dragged my mum in. I went in and the lady asked me if she could help me. I looked strait at my mum waiting for her to answer, like most people do at the doctors when they ask what's wrong. Anyway I told the lady the problems I had been having with my skin i.e spots. The woman told me she had the same problem and told me about a kit she had used. I told her I had tried so many brands and I am still up for using more and see how my skin works with them. The lady told me not to use face scrubs as your just rubbing the dirt and dead skin back on coursing you more spots, it's actually quite obvious but I never realised. She showed me how it worked on my hand and it was a course of three, first- is a foam which you can leave on your face for a minute or so to soak in then wash it off with water . Second- is a cleanser which takes of make up and dirt on your face but wipe don't scrub. Third- is a light moisturiser where you massager. I was shocked by how different my hands looked, it was smooth and looked health and had a nice glow. So I defiantly had to try it. But the down side was they only had a actual kit not a sample. Kindly my mum brought me the kit it was £25 for a small kit quite a high price but I can tell you it's worth it. My skin has a amazing difference  already and my family members can tell. My skin looks smooth , less oily and less spotty. Everything I could of asked for I will keep you posted on how it's going in my blogs to come.

New dressing table x








 I have recently got a new dressing table from a second hand shop it was originally dark orange and
 me and my mum painted it white. It was £65 and it has 3 draws down the left side. I have the normal kind of dressing table in the first photo it's my mirror from the Range - £14.Sorry the photos bad quality my camera ran out and that's the only photo I had. In another photo it's my products mainly perfume and spray, all my hair products and make up is in my draws. I also really like my books just sitting on my table, I have the 'how to be the best at everything'collection and I loved them when I was younger and I think there quite cute. Then there's my FijiFilm which I got last Christmas. I still have more things to add to it like fairy lights and I will have a glass panel on the top of the desk. Early next year I will be moving bed rooms so that's why nothing is perfect in my room. I have a paint test behind my mirror which poked out sorry. If your wondering where my laptop and stationary is I have a office were if all is, if you want me to show you that comment and I will. 
Thanks for reading
