Wishlist | 42

Another wishlist for you guys, this is mainly lip products. I don't really know why just got a bit excited for lip products during this one.
 
Products Mentioned:
1. Nicole by OPI - Modern Family - My Jay or the highway - £6.99
2. BarryM lipstick - Pretty Pink - £4.49
3. Revlon lip-gloss - Hot Pink - £7.99
4. 17(SEVENTEEN) blusher - First Flush - £3.49
 
Why I want these products?
1. Nicole by OPI - Modern Family - My Jay or the highway - I love modern family and nail varishes so what can go wrong really. This nail varnish is the most beautiful colour I have seen its nothing I already have, it is more green and grey together.
 
2. BarryM lipstick - Pretty Pink - I like BarryM but I have never tried their lipsticks I have heard that they can be hit and miss but I suppose I will never know before I try it. This is a gorgeous colour too.
 
3. Revlon lip-gloss - Hot Pink - I love lipglosses because they are so amazing and I have tried a Revlon lip gloss before. This is such a gorgeous colour as well I know the price is probably not in my budget for purchasing lip-glosses.
 
4. 17 - Blusher - First Flush - I love new blushers, I suppose I have a bit too many in my collection. This is such a nice colour and I have never tried anything from 17 before so I might just go and grab it.

1001 little beauty miracles | Conceal all day

Another 1001 little beauty miracles for you. I really enjoy doing these I might be a bit behind next week because I am busy starting college and work and stuff. I might even do a post on this, right sorry rambling as always. Lets get on..

258 - CONCEAL ALL DAY
Apply foundation before camouflaging problem areas with a cream concealer. Finally, dot with translucent powder to hold the concealer in place all day long.
I am really bad at this with concealers probably because I just dot onto my blemishes or red patches that I usually have on my cheeks. I will remember how to use this tip from now on. This will be easy to do and the two concealers I use are MUA cover and conceal with is used with a doffer applicator and Collection cover up stick, I thought I would vary up the concealers.

TAG | The One and Only

This is my first tag post and I have to admit I am pretty excited about this because I have always wanted to do a tag post. I was tagged my the lovely Shannon, she is one of my favourite bloggers. If you wanna check out her post where she tagged me it, click on the link. Basically these are the products that I would only be allowed to use.

Primer: I don't use a primer at the moment so this one doesn't really work.
 
Base Product: I use the Rimmel Match Perfection foundation in Light Porcelain. It matches my skin perfectly and is a very good foundation.
 
Concealer: The concealer I use is MUA cover and conceal wand in their lightest shade light. It is creamy and is good for blemishes and red patches I get on my cheeks.
 
Powder: I use Miss Sporty so clear pressed powder, almost running out at the moment.
 
Blush: My favourite blush at the moment is ELF's blush in Shy. It just gives my cheeks a flush of pink colour.
 
Bronzer: I have never used bronzer, so unable to comment on this one.
 
Highlighter: I use MUA shade 1 single eyeshadow, it is a beautiful white sparkly eyeshadow to use for a highlight.
 
Make-Up Brush: My favourite make-up brush is ELF's defining eye brush, its very soft and good for using it in the crease of the eye.
 
Eyebrow Product: I don't use any products on my eyebrows.
 
Eyeshadow (Single): My favourite single eyeshadow is ELF's studio shadow in saddle. But palettes would be MUA undressed me too and heaven or earth palette.
 
Eyeliner: I don't use eyeliners.
 
Mascara: The mascara would have to be my Technic one, its a big fat purple tube. I will be doing a review of this soon.
 
Lipstick, Lipgloss or Lip Stain: My favourite lipstick is MUA power pouts, they are so creamy and stay on your lips for a while.
 
Lip Liner: I don't have any lip liners as I don't use them.
 
Lip Balm: My favourite lip balm is Nivea hydro lip care, it is a huge favourite.
Nail Polish: Wow this is a tough one, I really can't pick one because it is too tough to pick one.
 
Have you done this tag? If so I would love to know, also I tag you all to do this because it is a great tag. I hope you enjoyed this.

NOTD: Pretty in Pink

Another nail of the day post for you, I love these posts because being the noisy person I am I just want to know what people have on their nails especially if I like the colour or something.

I have the Nails Inc in OMP! This was from the news of the world when there was an offer on or whatever, well news of the world isn't around anymore of course. I really like this colour just because it is so bright. I would like more nails inc polishes but I don't think I can justify myself by paying £11 for a nail varnish. But it does chip a bit but I suppose because I am always typing and using my phone and stuff.

Wishlist | 41

My favourite post of the week, yes sad I know but I just love these because I can see lots of different products that I wouldn't be buying. I hope you enjoy this one and I will be doing an overview of all the products at the end of the year for you.
 
 
Products Mentioned:
1. NYC Nail Polish - Ink Stain - £2.49
2. MUA Single Eyeshadow - Pearl Shade 30 - £1.00
3. MUA Single Eyeshadow - Pearl Shade 24 - £1.00
4. MUA Nail Polish - Stormy Skies - £1.00
 
Why I want these products?
1. NYC Nail Polish - Ink Stain - This is a gorgeous colour, it is a dark blue/purple. It is more purple tones, I love this colour because I am more of a pink and a green nail colour kind of person. I think this is next on my list.
 
2. MUA Single Eyeshadow - Pearl Shade 30 - This is such a gorgeous colour, it is a gold colour. I love this. I think this is a perfect shade on the lid all over or on the crease with a  lighter shade. This will be perfect for this eye look. I think this is something I will also get and MUA shades are perfect especially at just a £1.
 
3. MUA Single Eyeshadow - Pearl Shade 24 - This shade is a gorgeous pink sparkly glitter. I probably don't need anymore eye shadows but at £1 a pop. It is hard to resist. That is probably a colour that I would work with. I think I will get this too, I blame MUA for being a pound really.
 
4. MUA Nail Polish - Stormy Skies - I want to get adventurous with my nail varnish and wear lots of different colours. This is a dark green, I have a real obsession with green nail polish at the moment and it is a perfect colour.
 
Have you ever tried any of these products?

1001 little beauty miracles | Go Gently Into The Night

Here is another beauty miracle tip for you all, I hope you are enjoying these because I don't know if you do. So yeah lets get started with this one for you.
 
264 - GO GENTLY INTO THE NIGHT
When you apply night cream under your eyes, do so gently. Use your fourth finger (which is the weakest) and pat the cream back and forth under the eye, starting at the outer corner and working inward.

This is the night cream I have been using for under my eyes. This is such a nice cream, I am bad because I can never be bothered to use a cream I usually take my make-up off and head to bed. If anybody has any recommendations of a eye cream that would be really helpful because I don't think this is even used for an eye cream.
What eye creams do you use?

Wishlist | 4O

Here is another wishlist for you all, I am getting used to this weekly posting even though they seem to be getting posted later.
 
Products Mentioned:
1. Rimmel Nail Polish - Green With Envy - £3.69
2. Models Own Nail Polish - Grape Juice - £5.00
3. Essie Nail Polish - Naughty Nautical - £7.99
4. MUA Shimmer Kisses Blush - Pink Shimmer Kisses - £3.00
 
Why I want these products?
1. Rimmel Nail Polish - Green With Envy - I can't justify my love for nail varnishes I wish I could but Rimmel are one of my favourite brands I just love the colour range they have.

2. Models Own Nail Polish - Grape Juice - Again another nail polish, this is such a beautiful colour and I love the scented polishes as I already have one. This is such a cute colour that I want now.
 
3. Essie Nail Polish - Naughty Nautical - This polish is quite similar to the Rimmel one but you can always have dupe ones. (Yes! I tell myself that). I haven't gone an Essie polish before I think its the price of a nail polish that puts me off completely.
 
4. MUA Shimmer Kisses Blush - Pink Shimmer Kisses - This blusher looks very good because it has four little different colours. There is two pinks and a lighter shade which you could use for a highlighter. Perfect as well and cheap for a blusher.

NOTD: Purple glitter

I love my nail varnish its just something that I love to do and this is such a gorgeous colour. I know its hot well as I speak its raining but anyway, I thought I would use a purple and a little bit of glitter. This was also a chance for me to try some nail polishes that I have only recently got so I could try them.

The two polishes are used were BarryM - 313 dusky mauve and collection bedazzled nail effects in number 3 love jewel - I haven't used either of these polishes before and was very impressed and I want to pick up some more of the collection glitters to have another try out. They are great.

1001 little beauty miracles | Be alcohol free

Another tip for you all, this one is relevant to my skin and I think that this might help you. This is very useful for when you are looking for new products especially face products.
 
141 - Be alcohol free
Alcohol-based toners and cleansers are the enemy of dry skin, as they strip the skin dry of moisture and can cause problems with
skin firmness and blemishes. If you suffer from dry skin, avoid products with alcohol and use a moisturizer more than once a day to keep skin plump and hydrated.
 
I have  very dry skin sometimes and I use these two products which are Simple & Boots moisturisers. I have looked and searched and they don't contain any alcohol. I suggest you look into your products I have never thought about looking what is in products before I saw this tip.

100 things that I love | #O1

This is a new kind of post so you can learn a little more about me because you probably think all I do is blogs but that isn't the case. I was looking through a blog and came across a 100 things I love post from Rosy which you can see her post here.
I thought why don't I give it ago and do a few pictures and stuff. I hope this will help you learn a bit more about me.  Also these aren't in any order at all.
 1.

I love make-up of course I do otherwise I wouldn't sit here and write about it. This make-up just looks so amazing.

2.

 I love my family, they do mean so much too me. This picture isn't anything like my family really because I don't have a brother or sister.

3.

These 4 boys mean the world to me and I have supported them since the first day I ever saw them on the x-factor. They are my favourites and I can't explain when they announced there split and it makes me so sad.

4.
I love nail varnish just because I can't really explain my love for nail varnish because it can get out of hand really badly the amount I love it. But I love to paint them that is my favourite thing to do.

5.

This is something that people might not understand my love for football. But especially Tottenham Hotspur. I love this club so much and it means a lot to me. I know people say girls aren't supposed to like football, well this isn't true because I love football.

NOTD - Greenberry

Another nail varnish post for you all, it's BarryM Gelly Hi-Shine in Greenberry. This is such a gorgeous polish. 

I just love this nail varnish it is amazing and I want to get more Gelly hi shine nail paints because they are super glossy and no need to use a top coat for them. Also this post is quite old as I am writing this as I have already taken this nail varnish off but it only chipped a little bit only because I knocked it on something.

1001 little beauty miracles | Fake it till you make it

Guys it is that time again for little beauty miracles. this is something that I have been interested in. I hope you enjoy and look at my directory which you can see at the top of the page.

715 - FAKE IT 'TIL YOU MAKE IT
 
A sure fire way to stop biting your nails is to invest in a pair of falsies. Your teeth won't like the feel of the acrylic nail fibres and it will help you kick the habit. Plus, your nails will look great!
Here is a stash of my nails, I might try this just because I can and I have spare time that I won't get frustrated with my nails. This is a very good tip.

2013 | July favourites

Here is my July favourites I can't believe it is that time again. Where have the months gone? Wow. Right I have added a few more pictures in this one because the products just needed to be swatched as they are all great products.
 




 
Products Mentioned:
ELF studio single eye shadow - Saddle
Natural Collection lash length mascara
ELF conditioning lip balm - strawberry crème
Beauty UK palette - earth child
Rimmel London lipstick - 200 Latino
Miss Sporty Dr Balm - Honey Sweet Kiss
 
ELF studio single eye shadow - Saddle - This has been a big favourite this month because it is so nice just to put on all over the lid or in the crease. I can't wait to pick up some more eye shadows from ELF as they are really good and are really cheap on the go too.
 
Natural Collection lash length mascara - I have recently reviewed this already here. It's one of my favourite mascaras and I can't wait to go and pick up another one because I have almost finished this. It makes your lashes look very natural which is just what I want in a mascara.
 
ELF conditioning lip balm - strawberry crème - This is my favourite lip balms at the moment because it makes my lips really soft and moisturised. I think seeing as this is £1.50 it is so cheap and this tastes just like sweets if you lick it. I will repurchase surely.
 
Beauty UK - Earth Child palette swatches
 
Beauty UK - Earth Child Palette - I thought I would swatch the colours because this is a palette that I have enjoyed using this month. The brown colours have been a personal favourite. There will be a review coming of this soon.

Rimmel London lipstick - 200 Latino - I have been loving this, it is such a girly pink colour and it doesn't look too bright on the lips. It has been an all year round colour. I will be doing a overview on my lipstick collection soon because I love seeing people's collections.

Miss Sporty Dr Balm - Honey Kiss SOS - I love this, this is one of my favourites of the month. I need to get more of the miss sporty lip balms because they are perfect. I love the smell of this lip balm it is like lavender or something odd. This is great to chuck in my bag.

Swatches - ELF saddle, elf strawberry crème, Miss Sporty lip balm, rimmel latino

NOTD: Atomic Orange

Another nail of the day for you. I love posting these just because I can see what nail varnish I have used (sad, I know) 

On my nails I have atomic from nails inc. this was free with a newspaper so long ago. I love the colour it's beautiful. I put it on last Friday and over a week now no chips. I want some more nails inc polishes but I can't justify paying that much for a nail varnish. 

Have a good day guys! See you soon x

3. Models Own nail polish - Utopia - I love nude nail colours and this is such a nice colour to where when you are at work. I think this is very good colour and cheap too.

1001 little beauty miracles | Specialise for eyes

A late post for you today, its the 1001 little beauty miracles. This was supposed to be posted yesterday but this wasn't in my drafts. Never mind that lets get talking about what today's tip is. Its eyes and how you can help them. I hope this helps because it helped me.
 
23 - SPECIALISE FOR EYES
For fast removal, use a good eye make-up remover rather than a cleanser. It has oils that dissolve make-up better and faster than regular cleanser or toner. Then wash as usual.
I am very lazy when it comes to taking of my make-up but after reading this I have started to use a eye make-up remover. I am currently using boots essentials lotion and I really like this. It is gentle with my eyes and around and it takes all the mascara off. I will be reviewing this very soon because I really enjoy using this product at the moment, also I use this with just some cotton pads.
