My school makeup

Hi girls it is C here to talk about the makeup I wear to school. This look is so quick and easy that I can do it in 5 minutes or less . Also these products won't break the bank so you can pick these up next time you go to the shops if you wanted. x

This is a collab with the amazing Madison! Her blog is :Madison's Blog she is honestly so lovely xx

The first thing I do is use primer, I love the Maybelline Baby Skin Primer, it keeps my concealer on all day and it applies much smoother. You can pick this up for £7.99 at Superdrug and Boots

The essence stay all day concealer is my go-to! This concealer is amazing for those pale girls out there and when I say pale, I mean you haven't found a great concealer that actually matches your skin!This essence concealer is really good! It is lightweight (and light in colour!) and its easy to apply. This is £2.50 in Wilko.

The Maybelline Matte Maker Powder is my favourite powder EVER! It keeps me matte all day and keeps my concealer on my face. It doesn't look powdery and makes my face look flawless!! This cost £3.99 from Boots and Superdrug

I love the Natural Collection Mascara! This is a cheap mascara which makes you lashes look so natural whilst giving them curl and length. This is £1.99 from Boots!

The Lush honey trap lip balm keeps my lips looking amazing all day! This is £5.99 from Lush

My Top 10 Inspirational Quotes

Hello again everyone its -A!!!!
It feels like I've been gone for ages :(
Anyway today I'm going to be telling you my top 10 quotes and why as I find when reading quotes I feel very moved and inspired.
So hopefully you will enjoy this blog post today and continue reading!
P.S these quotes aren't in any particular order

1. Be somebody who makes everybody feel like a somebody- I think that we should all treat others how we want to be treated and it can't hurt to make a person feel important 
2. If nothing ever changed there'd be no butterflies- This is one of my favourites because it teaches us that change is for the good and we should expect good things from it 
3. Sometimes , I pretend to be normal but it gets boring so I go back to being me-this quote definitely expresses the fact that we should not try to be copies of others and stick to who you are (Good message there )
4. Laughter is timeless , imagination has no age and dreams are forever-  shows that we should enjoy all the little things we have and continue to fight for your dreams no matter who you are
5. In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take- we should take chances even if we know the risks as we only have this one life so why not make it a good one?
6. Sometimes we just have to let things go- the past has gone now and we are in the present and should look forward to the future coming. Don't let bad experiences hold you back
7. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step- even though our dreams may be big and unreachable you can achieve it slowly and in time
8. Beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind , pretty heart and pretty soul- beauty is not always about the outside but your kindness and heart inside of you
9. A smile is the shortest distance between two people-  smiling to someone doesn't take a lot of time as it could be the nicest thing that person has seen all day.
10. Trust is like a paper once its crumpled it can't be perfect- trust has been something I have always admired from people. Once you lose it then it can never go back to the way it once way. That's why I think having friends that you can trust 100% is a good idea. I'm so glad I met my 3 amazing friends . 

So there you have it my kinda cheesy top 10 quotes . We are so grateful for 1131 page views and if you are interested in more beauty reviews and pictures then why not head over to our instagram

Best Drugstore Makeup Finds of all time!!!-FACE

Hi,

This week's post will be about my favourite makeup products in my makeup bag!

DISCLAIMER: I have only been wearing makeup for just under 2 years therefore I have tried everything out there and this is only products from the drugstore (or highstreet!)

Primer
I never really thought that primers worked until my mum bought me the Maybelline baby skin primer last Christmas. This retails for £7.99 from Boots and Superdrug which you can buy here.

This is really smooth and easily goes onto your skin. It helps your foundation and concealer blend into your skin and helps it stay there all day long which is what everyone wants!!

BB cream
This product I blame on A because she took me into the Body Shop and made me purchase the Body shop All-in-one BB cream. It is colour adapting to your skin and gives a glowing completion. This is a great all-round product as if you have oily skin, it gives enough coverage to keep your skin from becoming too shining but if you have dry skin, it gives a glow so you don't look like your dead. I have literally got all my family into this product. This is a great product for £12.99

Concealer
This was a really hard one to pick as I have not hard much luck with concealers. However, recently I picked up a concealer that works well on me!!!

The Rimmel Wake me up concealer this gives a great radiant glow and has an anti-fatigue effect, which if you know me, you know how tired I get.This is loved by many and comes in the perfect shade for my pale skin. You can pick this up at Boots and Superdrug

Powder
Everyone loves the Rimmel Stay Matte which is probably one of the worst powders I have tried. (If you want a worst makeup products blog post I can do that for you) My favourite powder has to be the Maybelline Matte Maker powder. This is flawless every time and keep me from getting shiny for the majority of the day.

Blush
My favourite blush is the Topshop Blush in Do It Again. This blush is so stunning!!! I don't really know how to use blush..(awkward) but that doesn't keep me from trying as the colours are so pretty! This has such a gorgeous gold shimmer running through it which makes you look so awake. This cost £8 from Topshop (I can't find it on the website but the link shows another powder blush)

Thanks for reading this blog. I will try to do a version of this for eyes and lips but I don't know if you like this style! -C xxx

Could honey save your dry skin? Good Things face wash review

Hi,

This week is another review on the good things skincare brand. Sorry its a bit repetitive but A reminded me how much I love my Good Things Manuka Honey Creamy Cleanser and Refining Scrub

Alice Hart-Davis created the brand in 2010, which you can purchase from boots here

On the Good Things website they say:

GOOD THINGS is all about simple, effective and affordable skincare, with the added benefits of natural ingredients that can deliver genuine beauty benefits and keep the skin clear, healthy and radiant.

We launched with the SUPERFRUITS collection, designed to target problem skin and much loved for its super-effective results. Now, we have expanded our offering with our brilliant MANUKA HONEY and ARGAN OIL ranges.

Creamy Cleanser

I found this cleanser in TKMaxx about  a year ago and decided to buy it because my other face wash was running out. I love anything honey so this was perfect and it was even better that it doesn't test on animals either (no cruelty to the bees). As well as being vegetarian (the other ranges are vegan), they also only put 'Good things' into their products.

The Good Things range is targeted at people with oily to combination skin.  Within the brand, they have three ranges: Superfruits for young problematic skin; Manuka Honey for first signs of ageing; Argan Oil for keeping older skin radiant.

I just want to mention that I do not have ageing skin. The face wash said it would hydrate my skin which is what I need for my skin type (dry combination).

This face wash hydrates my skin meaning that once my face has been washed, it doesn't feel tight and stripped of all its oils. This face wash contains royal jelly and beeswax, which have great moisturising and protective properties. It smells delicious, hydrates my skin and its affordable, not to mention it is made of natural ingredients. After purchasing this product three times over the past year, I think this is my all time favourite face wash.

Refining Scrub

I picked up this scrub whilst repurchasing the face wash for the second time. I hate using face scrubs usually because they irritate my skin so I use skeptical about using this product. I bought it anyway as I loved the face wash and trusted the brand.

This product contains oatmeal and sweet almond oil as well as manuka honey. The oatmeal is meant to eliminate dead skin cells and the sweet almond oils contains nourishing and moisturising properties.

I love this scrub as it is not too harsh, smells amazing and leaves a moisturising residue so my face doesn't dry out, not forgetting the glow it leaves my skin.  I will definitely repurchase this product.

Thanks -C

Good Things Miracle Mattifier Moisturiser

Hi again -A here x

Today i'm going to be talking to you about the Good Things Miracle Mattifier Moisturiser with superfruit extracts- BLACKCURRANT AND GOJI BERRY.

-C actually gave me this moisturiser as she said that she would recommend it for my skin type. It smells soooo nice and whilst even writing this blog post im smelling it . Since -C has given me this product I have used it a lot as its perfectly good for your skin and it really works.

I use it all the time and I would really recomment it to anyone who has oily/combinational skin. The make Good Things doesn't test on animals or have animal ingerdients and is paraben free! This means it is 100% suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It is quickly absorbed to hydrate your skin. It also helps absorb any excess oil so your skin stays smooth and matte and is less prone to breakouts.

I really love this product and it has definitely made me interested in the brand Good Things. You can purchase it online by searching in Good Things mirical mattifier moistuirser.

Bye

REVIEW: COOLEST LIP-GLOSSES EVER!!!

Hi girls,

Today, I am reviewing the NEW CID i-Gloss Light up gloss with mirror!!!!!. 

The founder of NEW CID is Kelly Colman. Her makeup line is to help empower woman. She wanted to make it simplistic, wearable and easy to apply.

The lipgloss colours I used were called

Cherry Pop and Blondie

I'm really sorry that I can't add pictures because my computer isn't working but you can click the links to see what colours these lipglosses are.

I really like these lip glosses because they aren't very sticky, they have lots of pigmentation and come with a built in mirror and light!!!!

I think that the built in mirror and light make these lipglosses so unique. The light is under the lid so when you are applying this lipgloss you can see what you are doing. Also the mirror makes these so much easier to apply and you don't have to search around at the bottom of your bag for a separate one!!!

These cost £17 each which you can buy from here

Also if you don't like lipgloss they make lipsticks with built in mirror and light!!!

-C

Also I'm sorry I can't get pictures to work at the moment. I should be able to get it to work by the next time I write a blog!!!

Makeup with skin benefits??!!! First impression:Wild About Beauty

Hi,

This blog post is about the Wild about Beauty Ultra dewy crème blush sticks. I think these are a great idea as they are quick and easy and not messy.

As someone who loves blusher, I was excited when shown the cream blush range from Wild about beauty.

Wild about Beauty is a company created by Kim Jacob and Louise Redknapp. They created this makeup range that is foolproof and has real skin benefits. 

I have to admit that I prefer powder blush over cream blush as I thought it quicker and less messy. However, I was wrong. These cream blushers are compact so they are not messy and easy to blend. they are very creamy and have got lots of pigmentation. 

I love the shade names and my favourite shade is Phoebe. This is a really nice mid-tone pink that has no shimmer, which I like and is really nice to wear on the apples of your cheeks. 

I also found out that cream blush is better for your skin than powder. It adds more hydration to your face (which I need) and powder blush doesn't give a hydrating dewy finish. 

This was one of my favourite makeup products from Wild About Beauty and I am excited to try more. 

If you would like to purchase any products from Wild About Beauty then click here

We are meeting with out beauty representative soon which means we can try out for products for you!

Thanks for reading out blog :)

The S5 purity serum review !

Hi!
It's -A here today
I will be reviewing the S5 Purity Serum
The specific serum i will be reviewing is for oily blemish prone skin I got given a small sample of this to try out as i really wanted something to help my spots as it's not the greatest look!

I tried it when i was on holiday because I wanted nice skin whilst I was away . At first i thought it was not going to be that good but after a few days i really noticed a difference in my skins appearance It wasn't oily anymore and all of my spots had either cleared or were less noticeable I was really impressed with the results I got after using it! :)The serum is a thicker liquid which you add a drop or 2 to your daily moisturiser. You don't apply it by itself since using it with a moisturiser really helps your skin too .

If you don't have similar skin to mine there are many other serums you can try out ... Such as for redness and sensitive skin, hyperpigmentation, dry or scarred skin, sensitive skin, fine lines and wrinkles

The S5 Serum is good for all skin types and its even good to have if your skin is luckily perfect sicne it can also prevent any blemishes apperaring one day. This serum is literally AMAZING and I would recommend it to anyone who has trouble with their skin especially in the teenage years. Overall the s5 serum was something i would 100% use all the time Sadly, the only thing that put me off a little was the price ( £44 and $67) It means it is something that you would (well i know i would) have to spend a lot of time saving up for it.
As a young girl I would have much preffered it to be cheaper since then I could afford to buy some but then i do understand why it costs that price.
It is all completely natural and the people that created it are normal working people just trying to get their products well known which is completelty understandable.

It is crossing my mind to buy it as i really noticed a differnce in my skin and even my family commented on how my skin was much clearer and fresh. >If you are interested in purchasing anything from the S5 ramge then you can buy it from here

LUXE temporary tattoos by Glimmer

Hi guys! It's -L here for my first blog post- hopefully it will be good enough to not be taken down by the others.

I'm here to blog about LUXE tattoos by Glimmer (they're temporary so don't worry). Most of the time when I think about temporary tattoos I think about really rubbish cartoon character tattoos that you would find at a 5 year olds birthday party...

I mean who doesn't want my little pony
over their arms?!

So I was quite shocked to find out that temporary tattoos can be so much more than that. They are seen as an accessory much like jewelry. However, that wrong brand and you could end up damaging your skin, or just end up with a really cheap looking tattoo that hurts to come off. The LUXE tattoos were super easy to put on (all you needed was water) and came off easily with either baby oil, moisturiser or shower gel. Also they are great for those with sensitive skin!  

The Sharpies have nothing to do with the tattoos by the way


Glimmer is a professional worldwide body art company, so if you want quality then here is the place to go to get these amazing tattoos. (For £11.99 you get a pack- full of 2 sheets of tattoos)

We also tried them out...

-A made a bracelet and rings out of the Silver Metallic tattoos

-D found that the tattoos that matched her skin tone best were the Gold Metallic tattoos

-C tried the Water Colour tattoos (which really looked realistic)

                                                        

And I tried using words in my tattoo...

We all really enjoyed the tattoos and would definitely recommend them!
