Why do i wear make up?

Hey guys, here's a fun little blog i taught everyone could relate too!

Its why i wear make up and there's four  fun questions :) I tag anyone to do this and takes two mins!

When did you begin loving makeup? 

I started wearing make up properly when i was 13/14. I always scared to start wearing it as i felt it was so cakey and orange! Finally i came to my census and realized they had multiple shades of make up :)

At the start i only wore foundation on big occasions and mascara and blush day to day!

Compared to know it just does not compare! :P 

I think the biggest problem is most people are not taught properly at all! Its a pity i didn't have the world of Youtube and the internet!

How do you feel without makeup? 

Usually i would freak out if i didn't have make up on some where public. But if i am shopping in tesco or something i wouldn't put it on! This whole weekend i haven't worn make up just to give my skin a rest! 

I really dont mind not wearing it anymore, the only place i have to wear make up is to college or something! I don't get people who wear a full face of make up everywhere, there skin must be so bad! :(

What do you like about makeup? 

I love how versatile it is! Within 10 minutes you can instantly have a new look, you can change the colour, shape and look of your face! No no, i'm not saying it makes you a different person. It really helps to enhance your appearance and highlight features you have!

Yes it can give you confidence but i wouldn't use it as a barrier!

With the huge choice of products shopping and applying it is nearly therapeutic for me at this stage! 

I love spending time doing my make up properly just to enjoy it! Its also a great way to wake yourself up without doing much. I find the mornings i crawl out of bed its great, it covers any bags or dark eyes and i look fresh and wide awake!

Three Holy Grail items? 

My favorite mascara i have ever used is the Essence I love extreme mascara! This stuff is something like €2.50, but when applied to clean eyelashes it looks like false lashes! Of coarse its not the holy grail as it does dry out! But hey, its the best mascara i have ever used from upper and lower ends of make up!

Foundation - Sadly i have yet to find my holy grail foundation as i find it very hard to get a full coverage foundation without feeling it is clogging my skin! I wish there was a pimplier way but sadly there all extremely oily! Having dry skin i cannot stand the feeling of shiny oily make up! I do however love 25hour stay by Rimmel but i feel that your skin gets used to it very easily!

I think any staple red lipstick is holy grail to any girl! Coco Chanel's Red or Kate Moss's red are both fabulous! :) They last ages! 

There ya have it! My make up story! :)

Whats yours?

Panda eyes! Liz Earle Cleansing Polish

Hey guys...

we all know that feeling, waking up with black eyes, identical to a Panda!! But how do we get rid of them before bed?

My savior!!!

Liz Earle cleansing lotion! This stuff is amazing!!!

How does it work?

Simple rub one pump of the lotion onto dry skin, with the muslin clothes given rinse under boiling water and wipe lotion off fashion with cloth!

Could it be any easier?!

Why is this so different to any other cloth?

The lotion and cloth work perfect together to cleanse and sooth the skin.

I have to admit i had a really bad skin care routine.

I now use this twice daily! :)

And my skin has become so good! :)

I got this as a gift but usually retails at 23€ for the starter pack. Including 200ml of the lotion, a wash bag and 2 muslin clothes!

i love this stuff so much!!! :)

will be repurchasing over and over :)

Happy skin days :)

Yankee Candle Reveiw!

Hey Hey!

Going mad for blogs lately! With college i only get the chance to do it on Sunday evenings :)

Last weekend i came home and saw this gorgeous candle sitting on the table!

My mum bought it for me as a present :)

This candle is my favorite scent in the WHOLE WORLD!

This candle is described as sweet and zesty! It combines juicy mangoes and peaches with citrus fruits, ginger flowers and pepper! What an odd mixture?

Yet it all goes together so well!

This size is the largest sized yankee they do! It lasts up to 150 hours!

These candles are super easy to use and you can even buy a special wick cutter to avoid that annoying wax residue on the sides! 

The fragrance of these candles is over whelming, it fills the whole room with a radiant smell!

I love this scent so much because it is not too strong, and smells very fruity :)

Think this would be a perfect christmas present for anyone!

Great value too, and we all love that!

Happy Lighting!

25 hour stay Rimmel foundation :)

Hey hey.. another review!

As you know i Will only recommend something i have used and loved. I've been using this foundation for two months and this is my second bottle!

Price.

Its affordable at €8.50 the same as most drug store foundations.

Packaging

i personally love the pump. its so hygienic and the glass bottle looks great. 

one disadvantage is that at the end it becomes very difficult to get the remaining product out.

Foundation

coverage is amazing. 

full coverage foundation :) 

without looking cakey!

The Rimmel Bottle :) 

the colour is great for paler skin as they have a wide choice of colours!

only problem i find with this foundation is you use alot as it is not very buildable.

ie apply at 8am try to put more on at 10am. It tends to become very mucky and turns into a brownish colour!!

as for the 25hour stay power i disagree. :/ most it lasts is 8hours for me! :)

brilliant foundation. great price :)

Happy make up days! :)

The Rimmel foundation on :)

V05 gloss me smoothly, nourish me truly :)

Hey guys apologies on the delay on blogs! its been crazy with college life :)

I've another blogs on a fantastic hair care routine :)

V05's gloss me smoothly and nourish me truly.

This shampoo strengthens weakend hair, fill it with volume, smell great and look fantastic!

At first i taught it would be awful as it was so cheap under €4 for both. I was shockingly impressed by it.

I recommend this to all hair types and hair colours!

As i have blonde hair it tends to get damaged and break easily.

This shampoo really adds strength when i use heat on it!

 It smells devine and i am seriously in love with this creamy shampoo!

Washed with the Shampoo and Conditioner :) 

Happy hair days :)
