Barry M Speedy Dry Nail varnish

Since having my acrylic's taken off I've been looking for hassle free nail varnish and this is it. There only £3.99 and they dry with in 20 seconds which to me is amazing you do need 2 coats though.  

The 1975

The 1975 are one of my favourite bands at the moment, their new album has not long come out and I can't seem to get enough of them.

I love the first album for me it was their song chocolate that drew me too them it was on every radio station and it was so catchy.

The new album is amazing and I would download or buy it now my faves on the album are the sound and this must be dream.

Shower Routine!

Yes I am one of these people who can lose a good 45 mins in the shower daily mainly because I get distracted very easily. These are the products I use and one other thing I find is key is music and good music at that something you can sing along too.

Top 5 Shower songs:

1. Mumford and sons-Little Lion man
2. Taylor swift- we are never get back together
3. Adele- Someone like you
4. Les Mis- On My Own
5. Wicked- Defying Gravity

Products:

For hair washing at the moment as my hair is bleach blonde I've been using bleach London which is £5 each for the shampoo or conditioner. I like to leave the shampoo on for 10 mins for max results.

These are my core products I use daily Clearasil is for my skin because even at 24 I get crazy outbreaks of spots I like to leave it on with my shampoo and take it off at the same time, usually you can pick this up for £3.99. Whipped clean by soap and glory is amazing it smells like chocolate and its very moisturing for the skin, it's a bit more expensive for a shower gel at £5.99. The scrub of your life is the best exfoliater I've tried from soap and glory and it's not to bad a price at £7.99, it just gets rid of all those old skin cells to keep skin looking new and it's perfect to use before tanning.

MUA Eyeshadows Hot or Not!!

MUA do a huge range of colours in there eyeshadow range that's only £1 I only brought the colours that I thought I could use, I love a silver smoky eye as the bronze shades don't suit me. The colour pay off in these shadows is actually really good and I'm going back to pick up some more different shades, I've even done swatch's for you.

 onyx is the darker siver/ grey shade and platinum is the light silver shade.

Most Likely to Cousin Edition :)

Nail miracle product lifesaver!

Bourjois Nail Remover Pot

Now I'm not late to the party with this I've been using different versions of this for years. But this is by far my fave it even smells better than some of the others I've used. This one is £6.99 so it's the most expensive ones of these I've used in a very long time. It really is the one second treatment it claims you dip your finger in and twist round quickly and like magic it's gone. So much better than pads that break or nail varnish remover that really dries the nail beds out.
purchased with my own money

These things in life are really sent to try us!

I'm a fun loving girl who loves spending every minute with her friends and family.
I've come to the conclusion that when we stop waiting around for things to come to us, things usually end up way better than we ever could have expected.
Now I work within the education system and I do like it but I'm starting to wonder what other jobs are out there for someone who enjoys being around people all the time.
So my mission this year is to learn new skill whether that means sky diving or going on a waxing course I think this is the year I find myself or at least that's the plan...

The struggle is real!

So recently I've been stuck in a bit of a funk with life. I've been struggling to concentrate on any aspect of it with out feeling stress and a bit mean to everyone, It's not been intentional I think maybe I've just got bored of the same routine.
So I made a list of the things I want to by the end of the year.

1. Head to another festival which I am doing V fest all over again
2. Get in some sunshine Menorca here I come
3. stop saying no to things say yes!
4. Learn to save more spend less, the shopping habbit is real.
5. Be more spontaneous
6. Have more sleepovers
7. Go to an ourdoor cinema
8. Go to a beer festival
9. save to go traveling

some are big things others small but it gives time to focus on the good and positive.

Busted are Back!!

Busted are back bitches and I've never been so excited they were always my favourite  boy band of the noughties. I have seen them in concert as Busted and when they joined with Mcfly and were McBusted. I liked them so much well James Bourne anyway I loved his band after Busted, Son of Dork they were also amazing, I think its the instruments and the catchy pop tune you can't get out of your head that does it for me.

They are recording new material at the moment and I can't wait.

Revlon Ultra HD Liquid Lipsticks

 I love, love, love these liquid lipsticks to be quite honest I'm obsessed with them. There £8.99 a pop and I brought the whole collection apart from the nude because it was too light for my skin tone. I think the colour selection is amazing and they are all very wearable shades, for both day and night.

Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker matte lip colours

I saw these in Boots the other day and I'd seen a lot of hype about them, they are finally on 3 for 2 so I made a cheeky little purchase there a steal at £3.50. With lipsticks sometimes I want the whole collection other times I just buy shades that I know for sure I will wear.

 Pretty Muted: Love this colour exactly as the name says muted pink, it's a very day time colour the kind that's very easy to apply with out much hassle. The formula is nice and is moisturising on the lips considering its a matte product.

 Whoah- pink: I really though the colour would pop on my lips so I'm slightly disappointed that the colour pay off isn't great.

Chocoburry: I think this one is favourite overall as the colour payoff is good and it's a shade I will most definitely make use of as its darker than the pink one. I feel this one would look on darker toned skin too.

Overall I feel good about the formula as it isn't drying in the slightest and the colours are solid, shame there wasn't a red in the collection as I love a good red lip, I purchased these with my own money and would be likely to buy more if the colours differed more.

New hair don't care!

I live in Northampton and I rarely bother going to get my hair done in town but today I treated myself and went to the salon and got my hair done. I had a yellow problem with my hair when I'd been lazy and used a home box dye instead of going to the salon.
I'm really happy with the results its a very platinum colour and was only £50 well worth it as the transformation is amazing.
yay for new hair don't care....

New Hair Time!

It's that time again when I go and get my hair done, always a nerve wracking thing if you've never been to the salon, I'm sure you'll all agree you just sit there and pray you'll like the end result especially if you have thick curly hair like mine.
I'm a hairdressers nightmare my hair is just so thick and needs multiple bowls of colour which just makes them laugh they also have to thin my hair out so much that it looks like a lions mane on the floor when they have finished.
It doesn't take them long to realise that my hair takes at least half hour to dry and then it looks like a fluffy poodle just threw up on my head.
Wish me luck.
