Scandaleyes

Hey! 

So first off I GOT THE JOB! I'm so happy although the hours are killing me at the moment I've been working everyday for over a week and I can't wait until Tuesday when its my day off and I'm going for a spa day so can't wait to get pampered with my best friend 👯 

Anyway this week I thought I would do my blog about Rimmel London's Scandaleyes Rockin' Curves Mascara. My friend from work always looks like she wears falsies and I've always been envious of her lashes, we went on a girls night out a couple of weeks ago and I used her mascara.

I fell in love and went to get myself one, this is one of my best purchases in a while! The brush gives your lashes volume and lifts, it is a broken heart shaped wand so it can get to the very bottom of your lash line and lifts them right up! 

A thing I like about when you search for this product is if you go on the Rimmel London website you can 'Try it on' where you can either upload a photo of yourself to see what the mascara will look like on you before you buy it or you can put it onto one of the models. This is a great way to see if you like it before you go out and buy it. 

You can buy Scandaleyes or any other Rimmel London products from the following:
-Superdrug. (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-Boots. (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-ASOS. (Scandaleyes -£7.49)
-Feelunique.com (Scandaleyes -£6.99)
-Tesco. (Scandaleyes -from £3.49)
-Very.co.uk (Scandaleyes -£7.00)
-Wilko.com (Scandaleyes -£4.98)

Let me know if you have tried any of the products I have written about and what you think! ☺️

Hope you've had a good few weeks!

Hollywood🎥

Hey guys, 

I have been quite busy the past week so didn't manage to get a post in. It was my best friends 21st birthday party last saturday and she had a hollywood themed party which was great cos everyone got to dress up posh, there was a red carpet and even someone filming the event which gave it a proper hollywood feel!

The reason why I have decided to do my blog based on the party this week is because I wanted to show you the outfit I wore, the make up and how I had my hair. I will list all products below with the links as usual. 

The dress I wore was from Missguided. Its called Koemi One Shoulder Bustier Split Maxi Dress, the colour I got was Cobalt Blue. They also have it in Nude, Coral and Oxblood. I wore a size 8. 


I had my make up done professionally at Benefit Cosmetics. I didn't have to pay for it as my mum bought so much make up from them for my christmas presents I received a free make over and 10% discount on any products I bought on the day. The lady was really nice, she talked me through what she was applying and kept checking whether I liked how it looked incase she needed to change anything. I was really happy with the service and make over I got, so thanks Benefit! 




I had my hair in a slick, tight pony tail which I finished off with my Lauren Pope Syn wrap ponytail. I absolutely love this hair piece, its quick and easy to apply and went well with the hollywood theme and my dress! (sorry about the photo its the best one I have of a side view of my hair)

Aussie hair.

Hey! 

This week's blog is about Aussie hair products, I actually found that I won't go back to any other products after using these. They have made my hair come back to life in a short amount of time. 

I have been dying my hair since I was in year 4, my mum used to put highlights in it and then as I got older I wanted to experiment with different colours - I went from dark brown to blonde then decided I wanted blue in it, after blue I went back to blonde then not long later I wanted my hair dip dyed pink so I had that, which ended up damaging my hair so much! (wouldn't recommend it) 

I have recently had my hair dyed back to a brown with a few blonde bits, when the pink was growing out the ends of my hair broke off I discovered 'Aussie'. I first of all discovered the '3 minute miracle reconstructor deep conditioner' I used it once a week for and slowly started to notice the difference it was making to my hair. Eventually my hair has got back to its normal condition, its started to grow longer again and I make sure I have it cut every 6-8 weeks to make sure it stays healthy. 

My sister works in a salon and a customer came in with a bag of Aussie products, my sister doesn't use Aussie so gave them to me and they've also helped my hair. The one I'm using at the moment is called 'Colour Mate' I use both the shampoo and conditioner and it has left my hair feeling silky smooth. Colour Mate has peach extract in so your hair will be smelling lovely too! As usual I will post all links at the end of the blog :) 







You can either buy these products from
Boots The Chemist - prices ranging : £4.69-£5.99
Superdrug - prices ranging : £0.99-£5.99
Savers- £0.99-£5.99 (I always get my products from Savers as they work out cheaper per bottle, today I bought the shampoo and conditioner both for £5.98, from the other stores they charge £4.49 per bottle)

Thanks for reading!

Undress Me Too.

Hey Guys! 

I have decided for this weeks blog to do a review on MUA's eyeshadow palette, Undress Me Too, this is one of my favourite eyeshadow palettes to wear and it if it were in a save, spend or splurge it would definitely be in save as its only £4! You can buy MUA products from Superdrug or at the MUA website, I will post the link at the end. 

I discovered the Undress Me Too palette over a year ago when I was doing a make up photography shoot and didn't want to spend a lot of money as I was a student at the time and was using the make up on my models. I then discovered how well the make up stayed on and also the tones you can create with the different colours in the palette. 

The colours I would use when I use Undress Me Too, the white palette, are:
Shy
Lavish
Tranquil
Exposed
Reveal
Wink
Obsessed




I tend to use these colours because they are a mix of light and dark browns, which I've found bring out my eyes more (I have bluey/green eyes), at first I would only use one colour but then I wanted to experiment and discovered you could blend the colours to make different tones and effects with the eyeshadows. You can also get another eyeshadow palette, which is similar colours, called Undress Me (the black palette). 

This is they eye make up I like to create, its quick and easy to create and only takes 3 colours to do! 
Lavish, Exposed and Obsessed - to finish the look off I add the They're Real Benefit Eyeliner, of course this is optional, and mascara. 



I hope you like this post! MUA is a really good brand and is a good option for those of you who can't afford expensive/branded make up, its a good alternative from the Benefit 'Goodies a go-go'.

Daily make up routine

Hi! 

Happy New Year...hope 2015 has been a good year for you so far! 

I thought I'd post a photo with the make up I use on a daily basis and how it normally looks after. The make up I use is all from Benefit Cosmetics and I will post the links to the website too so if you want to buy any you're just a click away :) 


I start off with the 'They're Real remover' this will remove any excess eyeliner, eyeshadow or mascara you still have on. I then apply the 'Porefessional' to smooth my skin out and as it is a primer it keeps my make up on all day. The foundation I use is 'Hello Flawless' I use Honey (I'm so money), I have done a blog on Hello Flawless before so I will put the link at the end. 'Feelin' Dandy' is one of my newer Benefit products I have - I love the fact it gives your skin a warm glow...sometimes if I want to I will add 'Hoola' bronzer over the top. 'Goodies a go-go' is also a new product I have, inside it includes 4 mini eyeshadows, eyeshadow primer and a mini 'They're Real' mascara, I tend to mix all 4 eyeshadows together and use the lightest as a highlighter under my eyebrows. Most of the time I will then apply 'They're Real' eyeliner and mascara. 

In this photo I haven't got the Hoola bronzer on but I am wearing everything else I mentioned! :) It is quite a natural look which is why I like it and doesn't take long to do!
