Lip care! Post 3 of 3!

 

Hi there! Now in the past couple of months it has become really cold and that means that your lips are going to need protecting. Otherwise your lips are going to get dry and no-one likes that. I myself have always suffered from this, no matter what I do to them. So in these past couple of months I have carried round quite a few different products in my two bags, so keep them moisturised and getting it as least damaged as possible I thought I would tell you guys them.

 

In my bag I always carry a lip balm, lipstick and sometimes a lipgloss. I have two different bags and I have a lip balm and lipstick in both. I also have a lip gloss that I keep in one of my bags and just stays there. I use it if I want to but if not then I still have it just incase.

 

So in bag number 1 I have the Maybelline Baby Lips in Mint Fresh, Kate Moss Lipstick in 107 and a Bourjois Lipgloss. These are the ones I have in the bag I use all the time! I find all of these products so handy because they all have different qualities and they all apply really easily and stay on for quite a long time. I have just a clear lip balm incase I don't want any colour on them. I have a deep red lipstick which I wear if I am daring enough and I have a light pink sparkly lipgloss just to add a little bit of colour to my lips. (For more information read my January Favourites post, here.)

 

So in bag number 2 I have a One Direction Lip Balm in Niall's colour which smells and tastes of Cherrys, and a Little Mix Lipstick from Jades range which is a nude colour. I can wear these whenever and where ever I like. They are both subtle enough on there own but give my lips a bit of colour. The lip balm adds more pink to your lips and the lipstick makes your lips look more nude. I love them both so much!

 

I always add a lip balm underneath my lipstick because that adds a bit more moisture to your lips before putting on a lipstick which dries out your lips quite a lot and even more in this cold weather. So I always use lip balm so much. The only thing I don't like about lip balm is when its in the little pots. Only because you use your finger and after you have used it you still have some of it on your finger and you don't really know what to do with it.

 Do you have a favourite lipstick? Do you prefer lipstick, lip balm or lipgloss? Have you tried any of the products I use? Feel free to comment down in the comments.

I am sorry it is a day late but I got in pretty late last night and all I wanted to do was sleep. So sorry about that! I hope you all are having a fantastic Sunday whatever you might be doing. I am going to finish cleaning my house ready in time for my mum and dad coming back! See you soon! xx

 

This weeks madness!

Hi there! As I said a couple of weeks back I was going to do every two weeks an end of week review. Well over these last two weeks I haven't had anything that I have truly loved enough to be in an end of week review. So instead I have decided that I will tell you about the madness of this past week and everything that has happened.

 

So this week started off the same as normal. I babysat on Saturday until the very early hours of the morning. (4 o'clock in the morning!!) I was very tired that night and fell asleep until half past 12. I had a very chilled out Sunday and tried to get some college work done but ended up watching countless episodes of Gossip Girl and trying to catch up on sleep. Although in the evening I went out for a dinner with my friends to celebrate her getting a place in University and her birthday as well, which was the day before. It was a very enjoyable evening, a meal and then a couple of drinks afterwards! I had never had a more chilled out and fun evening out.

 

On the Monday it was a very enjoyable day. My mum was ill but I went out and spent money on clothes and then some food and soup for my mum. That took my time between 12:20 and 2:30. I got a taxi back and started to look after my mum. So for the rest on the day I had watched more episodes of last seasons Mr Selfridge. For the rest of the evening I was taking pictures for my photography project. I was very pleased about it. Started writing more of a fan fiction and then it had become bedtime already. Tuesday I woke up not feeling very well so I asked my last tutor could I not go to last lesson and I finished at half past 2. Although, in our first lesson we got put into groups of 4 or 5 and then had to research and plan a 40 minute lesson. We had it and one group was teaching on Friday. We were not going to be told until Friday who was going to teach so everyone had to be ready. Then instead of going home because I missed my bus I went shopping and bought more things. I came home and did nothing but reblog things on Tumblr while listening to music and then again after writing more of my fan fiction.

 

Wednesday was a busy day for me. I had been in college for 3 hours and then had my lunch. After lunch I had to go filming which was 1 and a half hours of enjoyable filming, and funny talks with my bestest friend I could ever ask for, and has an amazing fashion sense and blog. I will leave a link at the end. We spent another hour editing and singing and dancing along to songs with my other friends. It was very enjoyable. Wednesday night I decided to research the points for the lesson I might have had to give on Friday. Thursday came around and I was in college again. I left late but arrived on time. I had a very awkward day on Thursday where some people just didn't seem interested in what I had to say or wanting to talk to me. Apart from my bestest friend that is. I then had to babysit an hour after getting back home after college.

 

So we came to today. I got to college a couple of minutes late. So we did some last minute preparation for the lesson we had to give because it was us who had to give the lesson today without two members of our group. (Annoyed was not the word for me and my two friends.) We got an early lunch and went on Tumblr, ate my lunch and checked all of my e-mails. The afternoon came around and I finished my editing for my video. After finishing the video I signed out a digital SLR for the weekend. After we were aloud to leave me and my bestest friend went, shopped for a little while (including in a charity shop which I sometimes very rarely do) and took the bus back to my friends house. There we took pictures and I got picked up at quarter to 6. Came home and an hour later went back out to my aunties for her birthday. Took pictures and generally had a very good time there. After this we ordered Chinese takeaway and wrote this blog post while watching the ending episodes of Mr. Selfridge.

 

I am so sorry that this isn't what it should be on every second Friday but I didn't think it was right to do a blog post just on two items. Tomorrow will not be an outfits of the week either. This is because I had forgotten to take pictures of my outfits on Wednesday and Thursday of my outfits. So instead I will either be doing a review of all the Little Mix range of make-up or a haul of all the things that I have bought over the past few weeks. Cough cough, days, cough cough.

 

Have you had a busy week? Is there anything you have been particularly loving this week? Is there anything you would like to see a post on? Feel free to comment down below about anything.

End Of Week Review #1

Hi there! This end of week review is basically 2 beauty products. What I have been loving and using this week is the L'Oreal Long Lasting Perfecting Foundation and the Seventeen Instant Glow Bronzer. I got the bronzer earlier this week and it only cost me £4.19 in my local Boots store, but I can already tell it will last me a long time because I don't need much of it.

 

 

I am going to briefly talk about this again. I know I did a review on this earlier in the week but I have loved it so much I thought I would mention it again. It has a very good coverage over blemishes, spots and evens out skin so easily and I love it so much. Normally I don't like pump foundations but this one is so good and I don't have to do a lot of pumps to get my desired amount. It does last for 16 hours and I just love it!

 

 

 

The other thing I have been loving over the past few days is a bronzer I picked up when buying my mum her birthday present. I had been needing a bronzer for quite a while because I don't like how pale my face was compared to the rest of my body. So I tested it out a little bit on my hand and it was a very light bronzer which I thought would be perfect considering how pale my face is. It is so easy and easily transfers onto my brush and then from my brush to my face. It doesn't add so much that it makes look un-natural. I will do a more detailed review on this later in the week but I absolutely love this and it is a must have for me. I would definitely recommend this to anyone thinking about buying a bronzer.

 

Is there anything you have been loving this week? Is there anything that is a must have? Have you tried either of these two products? What are your thoughts on them? Feel free to comment down below in the comments about these.

My Everyday Autumn/Winter Make-Up Look!

 

Hi there! Today I am going to tell you about my everyday make-up look. This is what I do for college, so in my eyes it is a very simple look and very casual. I use many products in this look but because I am so used to it, it take me 10-20 minutes to do this depending on how awake I am! I use this most days when I actually get up and out of bed. The image below is all the products and the brush I use for blending. I could not find my other brushes I use, but they are just very simple brushes and you can get them in any make-up brush set.

 

So here I have used a Collection 16 Hour Lasting Perfection Concealer (which I have run out of that's why its not in the picture sorry!) and I have dabbed this under my eyes, a little bit on my forehead, a little bit on my chin and a little bit around my nose. I have done this to cover up my dark circles under my eyes from the lack of sleep I get from working at night. I also a little bit of redness around my nose because of my cold I have had for a while and I have a couple of spots on my forehead and chin so I put a little on there to cover that up.

 

 

Next I used the L'Oreal Long Lasting Perfecting Foundation in number 15, which is Porcelain. I use this all over my face so I have a complete coverage just so that it covers up any less noticeable blemishes or spots. I blend this in again with my Real Techniques Brush. It is the expert face brush but because I don't have that big a face it is perfect for concealer and foundation and I just love this brush. It is so soft even after having it of ages!

 

 

Then after doing my concealer and foundation, I use a Collection Pressed Powder in the number 18 called Ivory. I use this over my foundation so that the other make-up I use after the powder will stay put and my look a little softer, then if I didn't use it. I put this on with a little pad instead of a sponge because I use less this way and It gives complete coverage better than using two different sponges.

 

 

After I use my powder, I get my SmashBox Palette in the name of Hot Date. It is essentially an eyeshadow palette but I use the darkest brown that they have just to fill in my eyebrows and make the shape more noticeable. I don't use a lot of it but just enough so they are more noticeable and that I do have eyebrows under the foundation and powder I have on. For this I use an angled brush which shapes my eyebrows nicely.

 

 

After that I get my Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner in the shade Blackened Metal. This isn't a black it is a dark grey with bits of glitter in it. You can't tell the glitter is in it unless you put a lot on. I go around my top lash line and the corner of my bottom lash line and then have a little flick at the corner of my eye. To use this product I got a free eyeliner brush with it and it is a very small angled brush.

 

 

 

After I do my eyeliner I grab my Collection Little Mix Mascara. I have Jades version because it defines every lash and I think it looks so nice and pretty. The mascaras in the Little Mix collection are all black so I do my top and bottom lashes and make them stand out a bit more. The wand that you use to coat your lashes isn't that big or think either so I just love using that every time I do my make-up.

 

 

 

Lastly after all of that I pick up my Sleek Blusher in the number 926 in the shade Rose Gold. I love using this blusher in the winter time because it gives my cheeks a soft glow. The colour of the blusher is a dusty pink with a bit of shimmer in it. I love using it and it looks so nice on my very pale skin. To put this on I use a blusher brush for a normal make-up brush set. Its not a fancy brush. The one fancy brush that I have is my Real Techniques brush.

 

 

After all of this as an after thought as always I use a Lip Butter that smells like Raspberrys. I love using this because it gives my lips a pinky look to them and makes them look fuller. I don't always use a lip butter on its own. I sometimes pair it with a Lipstick and at the moment I am using a Kate Moss Lipstick in the colour 107. It is a dark red/pink. I adore it and always have it in my bag with me.

 

 

So here is the before and after picture of my Autumn/Winter Make-up Look.
