♡ Mini Haul - Boots & Primark ♡

I went to Boots the other day where they currently have a 3 for 2 offer on all makeup and beauty products, so i couldn't say no could I? 


 1. Soap & Glory - Supercat Liquid black eyeliner pen - £6.00 - I have tried this a few times now, and so far I have been loving it, It applies really easily and creates a lovely line, It can also be used for different eye looks, from day to night really easily just using the tip at different angles, which I love! You do have to use it a few times for it to go a fully black colour as it first I found it was a light black colour, but now it's fine.

2. Elegant Touch - Galactica - £7.95 - I haven't used these nails yet, as I got them to wear to a party this coming Friday! I have seen Zoella mention these a few times now in favourite videos, and she highly recommends them, as I have never really tired false nails before I wanted easy to use ones, which I have heard these are, I picked the ones in this lovely metallic dark purple. I am very excited to try these and I am sure I will do a reviews once I have!  

3.Rimmel London - Stay Matte - £3.99 - This is the is the 5th time I have brought this powder now, It is my all time favourite one, I love it! I have mentioned this on my blog before, but it really sets your makeup in place all day and helps reduce any shine to the face, it's also really affordable at £3.99! (I got this free in the 3 or 2 offer) I get mine in '001 Transparent' as I just use it for setting my makeup in place! 

 

 From Primark I got these fairy lights which I have been loving I have about 5 pairs around my room, which make my room feel really cosy, they are battery operated which I found so useful as you don't have to worry about wires running everywhere! They are also really affordable at £1.50 which you can't really go wrong with! 

Thank you for reading!

♡ Favourite Pieces of Jewellery ♡

I have really been loving Jewellery at the moment, they have been simple pieces of Jewellery but here are a few I have been loving.

Pandora Charm Bracelet - 
I have a silver charm Bracelet with two charms one I got for my birthday last year and one I got for Christmas from my brother, This is one of my favourite pieces of Jewellery as it goes with everything, and its really sentimental. 
Watch - 
I got this watch for my birthday this year and I love it, It has a navy blue strap, with a gold head, It looks really expensive, but it was only about £15 from Argos which is amazing!





Ring - 
I got this ring for my prom last summer, and I haven't really worn it, until a few months ago and now I wear it all the time, It wasn't that expensive from Debenhams, the only problem with it is, I have worn it so much it has started to make fingers green when I wear it which isn't great. 

Thank you for reading!

♧ Autumn Nail Picks ♧

 My Autumn Nail Picks! 

At this time of year, I love the idea of painting my nails with beautiful colours, some of the colours I have been loving at the moment and can see myself using a lot this year are from Barry M. Over the last few years my obsession with Barry M has grown a lot, they are really affordable and have an amazing range of colours.


 The first colour on the left is 'Almond' I saw this in one of Niomi Smart's videos a while ago and thought it was a beautiful colour. It's from the 'Gelly hi-shine' collection, Its a lovely purple/grey colour perfect with every outfit. 

The middle colour is 'crush' which is from the 'MATTE' collection, I love the finish this nail polish has, it comes out like a normal nail polish then drys matte, this is definitely something different to my collection, and is one of my go to colours at this time of the year. 

The colour on the right is 'Pomegrate' which is from the 'Gelly hi-shine' collection, If I remember correctly I included this colour in my 'Spring Nail Picks 2014' its still here and I'm still loving it, its a brighter colour out of the three, which is nice when I am feeling something different and a bit brighter for the rainy days ahead.
 

Thank you for reading!

Haul ~ Avon&NewLook

Avon:

Avon £10









First of all, I finally brought the 'Mega Effects' Mascara, I finally bit the bullet and got in, I have seen so many reviews on how amazing it is. At first I was a bit scared of the way it looked, I thought I would end up poking my eye out which so far I have not done yay! Despite that the way the it looks, The product is amazing, it's so easy to apply and you not having to mess around, plus you only need a coat or two. One down side is that I find it goes a bit clumpy, so I wear my 'collection No clumps' over the top to make sure it's not clumpy. 


Avon £7











The next thing I got was 'Avon SuperShock' Double Eyeshadow pencil in 'Cream Dream & Chocolate Melt' I have wanted to try an eyeshadow pencil for a while, because I had seen good reviews about them, So I got the double ended pencil, I love the two colours. 'Chocolate Melt' It's a dark brown colour (Like chocolate big clue in the name) and the other colour is a light Cream colour (again clue in name) they both have shimmer in, but they look amazing at this time of year and would made a nice eye look for going out. 



Avon £8







The next thing I got was 'Avon super extend' Eyeliner, This product came free when I got the eyeshadow  which I thought was really good, since I've always wanted to try an pen liquid eyeliner and this is came free which was great, I am no expert at eyeliner what so ever, I am ok with pencil but liquid never ends well! but the eyeliner is good and it's easy to control. The only down side is the smell it doesn't smell great, but the product is good.

NewLook:

NewLook £24.99





My mum got me this for Christmas Jumper day at school, and also because I did well in my maths mock!! but anyway I have fallen in love this jumper I wearing it right now, and I'm also wearing it tonight for a meal party with young famers :D It's the perfect Christmas Jumper.












What type of Christmas jumper do you have? 

Thank you for reading!

Sweater Weather Tag!

Can't believe its the first of December, where has this year gone? Anyway the past few weeks I have seen this tag around the Blogging and YouTube world and it looked like a lovely tag, so here you go... 


Favourite candle scent?
One of my all time favourite scents at this time of the year has to be Vanilla.

Coffee, tea or hot chocolate?
I don't like coffee so that's out of the picture, But tea and Hot chocolate are favourites, The perfect drink in Winter/Autumn is Hot chocolate whipped cream, marshmallows, chocolate sauce and a flake <3  

Whats the best Fall/Christmas memory you have? 
 Fall memory I love when the leafs fall of the trees and they are all orange and yellow and brown. Christmas memory is putting the tree up and listening to Christmas songs and spending time with the family. 

Which makeup trend do you prefer: winged eye liner or dark lips? 
  I can never do eye liner but I'm slowly getting better, but I love dark lips, I like both trends I guess.

Hats or scarves?
Scarves, but my mum is also telling me to wear a hat, but I personal hate wearing hats, But I love scarves. 

Most worn jumper?
For round the house, I wear my large purple one which my mum made, its so nice and warm. But when I'm out I don't really have one, I wear a lot jackets, but I have asked for a jumper for christmas. 

Favourite fall nail polish?
I couldn't pick one so I picked my top 3, My first one is from Avon 'Plum Seduction' it's a dark matte purple. My Second one is again from Avon 'Golden Vision' it's a metallic Gold, it's a really a Christmasy Gold. My third one is Barry M 'Rose Quartz glitter' I love wearing this over other nail polishes, it gives it a finish touch, I like this one over the top of my Avon 'Plum Seduction'.

Skinny jeans or leggings?
I love both, but at home I wear leggings and when I'm out I wear skinny Jeans. 
Boots or uggs?
I personal don't like uggs, but I don't own any boots, it's another thing on my Christmas list this year. 

Thank you for reading my post, Uploads might be a bit slow are a week or two because my laptop isn't working properly at the moment but its being fixed. I also have mock week  but I will still be uploading, I'm aiming for a post every other day. <3

Would you rather - Makeup Edition!




I saw this tag, over on bellamomento blog, and it seemed like a lovely tag to do, Make sure you go and check her blog out because her blog is simply amazing! 

1. Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip glosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?
 I would have to say Palettes and eyeshadows, for school I don't really wear eyeshadows so I would let them go.

2. Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
Even though I love long hair, I don't think I would be able to NEVER have to cut, I would have all my hair cut off, but only if I was aloud to grow it again.

3. Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
Pink cheek, I think its a lot more natural, and easy to work with, plus I never wear a coral cheek.

4. If you had £1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
This one is easy, I would buy clothes, because you can never have to many clothes! 

5. Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
Eyeliner as lipstick, because you can get different colour eyeliners so you could wear different ones, but lipstick as eyeliner, would make your eyes sticky and horrible. 

6. Would you rather only shop at Mac or Sephora?
Seeming we only have Mac in England I would say Mac, but if we did a Sephora I would shop there because there are way more brands at sephora.

7. Would you rather only use one eyeshadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?
 One Lip colour, because I like trying new eye looks, but I only really wear my tinted lipgloss.

8. Would you rather wear winter clothes in the summer, or summer clothes in the winter?
Winter clothes in summer, but you would freeze here in winter if you wore summer clothes, plus in England we don't really have much of a summer so, winter clothes would be fine.

9. Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?
I would wear bright colours, because it makes your outfit more fun and dark nails are boring to have all year round.

10. Would you rather give up your favourite lip product or your favourite eye product?
Eye product, but then I would find a new favourite.

11. Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?
Ponytail, I don't like wearing my hair up, but when I do its in a high ponytail. 

12. Would you rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lip gloss?
Never wear lip gloss, I hate the feeling of lip gloss, its all sticky and horrible.

13. Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?
I hate the look of drawn on eyebrows, so I would say shave eyebrows, plus because I'm blonde you can't really see my eyebrows anyway.

14. Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?
Nail Polish.         


I'm not sure who to tag, so If you feel like you want to do this tag, Then I tag YOU! 

~Abbie~
