Beauty | Wearing Liquid Matte Lipsticks

I'm not beauty expert but when it comes to liquid matte lipsticks I know some good and helpful little tips to help out anyone who is nervous or seems to go wrong when using one. I found them rather intimating at first due to people saying they dry the lips out, or I would use one and get in a mess so it has taken me a while to get to grips with liquid matte lipsticks but I wanted to share some tips with you today.

Lifestyle | Giving Blood

For 2018 I wanted to become more helpful and the one thing I was really interested in doing is giving blood, it's something I thought about before but never really got round to doing it. So I looked online to see what the deal was and it turned out to be easier then I first thought.

Book Review | Basic Witches By Jaya Saxena and Jess Zimmerman

I've been Pagan for well over 10 years now and always love checking out new fresh books on witchcraft, one that caught my eye and I've wanted to check out for a while now is the Basic Witches book by Jaya Saxena and Jess Zimmerman. I've seen fellow bloggers and youtubers do reviews and of course I wanted to check it out for myself.

Beauty | Studio London Makeup Brushes

I've been using the same brand to buy makeup brushes from for a while now almost 3 years so I decided to branch out and have a look at other brands, I spotted Studio London in my local Superdrug and picked up a set of four brushes in there sale for £1.99 which is a massive bargain considering they are around £10-£12 normally.

Beauty | Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick Hire Me

When it comes to high end lipstick they really need to impress me, as I'm 100% one for looking after my pennies, however on a recent trip to my local Smashbox store I was very impressed and happy to pay £17.50 for one of the Be Legendary lipsticks in the shade Hire Me. I was after the perfect everyday lipstick that was fun and sweat but I could also wear to work and this one fitted that perfectly.

Lifestyle | 2018 Book List

One of my new year resolutions is to read more and being someone who can take up to 6 months to read one book I've got together a realistic book list of books that I should be able to read in 12 months. I've only picked out 4 books which is doubling what I normally read and once I've read one I'll be doing a review on my blog!

Beauty | Millie Mackintosh Glam and Glow

When it comes to makeup I'm a less is more girl and sometimes I need a quick pick me up so I opt for a face illuminator instead of a full face of makeup. I tired several ones in the past but I wasn't able to find the right one until I picked up a set from the Millie Mackintosh range at Boots. It was only £9 but I picked it up for half price at £4.50, it's a great price to pay even at full price.

Beauty | Soap and Glory Girls Con-Tour

Priced at £14 this five piece contour set is one that I've been reaching for over the last few weeks, it's a perfect travelling set and always great to have in my bag for on the go touch ups. I was really impressed with how much I got for the price I paid and would happily purchase it again.

Nails | Barry M Coconut Infusion Gel Nail Paint

In the Barry M Coconut Infusion range you get 10 gel nail paints priced at £4.99 each however Barry M always have offers on such as a 3for2. I currently own 8 originals Oasis, Laguna, Surfboard, Flamingo, Paradise, Scuba, Tiki Hut and Popsicle, included in the range is two more shades called Flip Flop and Lemonade. However I own Aloha and Sunkissed instead I believe this is due to purchasing a set from Barry M and not them individually.

Skincare | Lush Dream Cream

I'm super picky when it comes to using body lotion and hate trying new ones due to never finding the right one or my skin having a massive flair up of eczema. So I opted to try the Lush Dream Cream as a lot of people had told me it was great for dry skin conditions and also works well at keeping the skin looking good.

Beauty | Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette

My first high end makeup palette and I'm pleased to announce it's an Urban Decay Naked one, I've heard so much about these palettes but the price tag has always put me of as spending £39.50 on a palette is way to much, I was happy to see it go into the Feel Unique Christmas sale at £25 still a lot of money however the hype surrounding them made me buy it!
