2017 Declutter

My last post of 2017! How crazy how quickly time has gone! I hope you all have had a fab Christmas and enjoy New Years no matter what you do!
More often then not every month I’ll buy myself a new product to try out or just as a treat. Which accumulates to quite a few products and the more space I have to find to fit it all in! So I decided to do a little declutter of all the products I have and really be strict on myself. Usually I’ll keep something ‘just in case’, when actually that ‘just in case’ never comes around. I just end up with products I once used to use a lot and now have moved on, or even products I’ve only used a handful of times and don’t like.

July/August Empties!

Over the past two months I really haven’t used up that much makeup or skincare. I’ve had a good clear out of the products I know I’m not going to use any more or don’t reach for, so my collection is more condensed and there’s actually room for more! So let’s get into the empties for July and August!

Lets Talk: About A Negative Mindset

Hi guys! I have been thinking lately about starting the first series here on my blog all things I have learnt over the past few years  and I wanted to share tips to help you do the same.  As much as I love makeup and the beauty world, something also important to me is mental health. It’s so easy to become bogged down in everyday life and get caught up in things.

I’m really bad at letting a negative mindset affect my mood and my day. Like I can’t shake that feeling off, it’s like this jacket of negativity is glued to me. Whether the cause of the jacket being put on is down to what someone has said to me, if my blog has a slow day or I feel negative about what I’m doing with my life. Those things can all be solved.  Having a negative mind won’t get me any closer to being happier or those problems being solved. So these are some of the things I do to change my negative mindset that I have learned over the past few years.

Mini Makeup Declutter Spring 2017

I love the season changing from winter to spring. Everything is becoming so colourful again and there is new life starting everywhere! Every spring as I swap my winter wear for lighter layers, the season of new beginnings always inspires me to sort everything out. And so having already sorted out my clothes, shoes and jewellery I thought it was only right to give my makeup a bit of a spring clean.  I thought I would share with you the things I’m decluttering from my makeup collection!

Seventeen Define & Conquer Contour Kit Review

Hello everyone and happy Thursday! I am back today with a review of the Define & Conquer Contour Kit from Seventeen. I have been using the Define & Conquer Contour Kit* for a good few months now and I have been enjoying using it. It has a darker shade to define the face and a lighter shade to illuminate the face.

Golden Eyes & Purple Lips

Hello everyone! For my first makeup look of 2017 I have paired a simple golden eye with a bold lip. I wanted to get out of my comfort zone more to get the ball rolling with my New Year Goals, which if you fancy reading you can here.  I really love this makeup look and the purple lips really make it more out there whilst not being too far out the zone!

Gold Cut Crease

Happy December! We are finally in the last month of 2016! I love Christmas and I have been loving creating festive looks for the season! For my first festive look I have a gold cut crease with red lips! I have recently mastered the skill of a cut crease, and whilst it still has room for improvement, I am loving wearing it!

Peach Makeup Look!

I have been really enjoying trying out new shades and I saw one of my favourite YouTubers, Desi Perkins, who did a peach makeup look a few months ago.  I wanted to try a new shade on myself. So I’ve done a super simple peach look inspired by Desi.

Seventeen Skin WOW Concealer | Review

The hunt for a concealer that matches my ghost like skin colour can be treacherous. That may be a slight exaggeration but the struggle is real. However, I love to try new concealers so when the lovely team at Seventeen sent me their new Skin WOW Concealer* I was excited to try it!

Easy Autumnal Glam!

Hello, I hope you guys have had a good day! I have been in London visiting the British Museum to see the Sunken City exhibition that’s currently on! I love learning about the Ancient Egyptians! Anyway, to the blog post! I have been really enjoying using red tones in my eye looks. Usually I wouldn’t opt for these shades however, as I am playing with different colours more I am finding more shades I love to wear! This is the final instalment of my Autumn inspired posts, you can check out nails and lips inspired by Autumn too!
