In today's post I've decided to share with you what i have been using since it's obviously christmas day is less than four days away. Also I've been to alot of christmas parties in the past few days and it's kind of stuff ive been using to get ready. This product ive been using since august and i love it. I saw Zoella (Zoe Sugg) using this product in one of her videos and it looked so awesome when she used it on her hair. I've been using this as a staple in my get ready for parties. I've been applying it if ive either curled my hair or braided it the night before and had natural beachy waves. You dont need alot in your hair in order to give it the perfect texture. I love the smell of this product and it doesn't make your hair tangle or anything. its an all around brilliant product and im going to purchase the full size. BarryM lipstick in black cherry This lipstick has made an appearance in a number of ...

Left: PS Love primark , BarryM : Black Cherry and collection cream puff This year is flying by and a month today it will be christmas. I know I haven't posted in forever but bare with me. Today it's the battle of the winter colours. This time of year i love wearing dark vampy colours and these are some of my faves. The Barry M one is up there with one of the ones i wear alot. Its very dark if you apply it lightly it is a perfect light purple colour and if you apply it harshly it becomes a perfect plum colour. The dark red is from PS Love from primark. It is a perfect not bright its quite similar to the barry m lipstick. Then there is the nude cream puff from collection, wearing this when you dont feel like wearing a bright lip. its perfect for work/uni/college/school.

. Finally this little beauty that's been driving the beauty community insane for ages now.I' m a little late to the band wagon but was hearing things about it and wasn't sure how my skin would react to it. My Thoughts I love this stuff so much. Its better than using face wipes on your face.It really pulls off all the products off you face without it feeling to heavy.I wear waterproof mascara and it pulled it off my eyes no problem.It will pull all the grime thats on your face off and it wont dry your skin out but after i apply this i do carry on with my skincare routine. It doesn't leave your skin feeling wet it absorbs the moisture. It has broken me out and i have dry skin and it's been fine.You dont have to put alot on a cotton pad as it still works effectively. I bought the travel size to test it but im definitely going to be purchasing the full size of this product. Overall i c...

This is something that i dont really like to talk about much, but ive grown the courage to finally be able to talk about it to people. When i young every so often i would have a panic attack. Ever since that day i would have them  regularly.I was pretty young so i didn't know really how it happened and how to deal with it. When i turn 15-16 years old it began to get worst as i was sitting my gcse at school. Before every exam i would start to experience a panic attack.What was more horrible is that i felt like i was humiliating myself because everyone was watching me which was making me worst. Throughout my GCSE at school i tried and tried not to freak out but it kept coming and in the end i would take my exams after a long discussion with the exam board in the comfort of my own home. From that day onwards i felt a little better but then come the low self esteem and low confidence because having these panic attacks were making me feel well im gonna put it thi...

Today I'm going to be showing you how i pack my suitcase. I know alot of people have there ways of doing it but this is the way ive found that works for me  Let Begin... One of the first things i put in my suitcase is a towel and my bag of aerosols in a ziplock bag. i tend to put my towel at the bottom of my suitcase so the weight is easily placed out. As for the aerosols e.g Dry shampoo,insect repellent and hairspray and so on. I feel putting them in a ziplock bag is easier because you dont want them to explode all over you suitcase. when ive finished putting things in the ziplock i will put them in the corner by my towel.(As you can see on the right) Next is Shoes.When it comes to packing trying to narrow down shoes is always hard so i take two pairs that i know is gonna go with everything. I wear Sandals on the Plane because its easy for security. I put a pair of daps in the mesh but because they are cheap from primark (£3) so if they get gross i can jus...
