It's been a while, hasn't it? I have really missed posting, there have been times when I've thought 'Oh I should blog about this' or if I've bought some things I've thought it would make a good blog post, but my heart just wasn't in it and I want to be 100% into writing a post. Anyway, I'm here now with a beauty haul for you, so we'll get straight into it...<br />
<br />
<h3>
Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24hr Cream Eyeshadow £4.99</h3>
<div>
I stopped using this last Winter and months later when I was rifling through my makeup collection I found the little pot of it a little dried up, so I went out a bought a new one. This is a really pretty shimmery pink cream shadow, it looks lovely on its own or with other eyeshadows creating more of an eye look. I really want to try the other shades in the range.<br />
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<h3>
Clinique Eyeliner</h3>
<div>
This wasn't a purchase, I got given it when I went to a Clinique counter to get a foundation match and the lady gave me free full-size eyeliner. I don't normally rate felt tip eyeliners as they tend to dry up, but I am hoping a more high-end one will be different.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
L'Oreal True Match Foundation £9.99</h3>
<div>
Another repurchase for me, I wear this foundation if I want something a bit more full coverage than a BB cream which is what I normally use. I like this if I'm wanting a semi-matte finish and it seems to have become my go-to high street foundation.<br />
<br /></div>
<h3>
Vaseline Lip Balm £2.09</h3>
<div>
I am a lover of lip balms and I like to try different ones and so I purchased this Strawberry scented lip balm with a pink tint, it smells lovely and I needed a lip balm so hopefully, this will do the job and sooth my dry lips.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
Nail Varnishes</h3>
<div>
A friend of mine painted my nails a while ago and I loved the colours she used, so what did I do? I went out bought the exact same colours she used on my nails. They are Barry M Molten Metal in the colour Copper Mine (£3.99) and Rimmel in Coralicious (2.99), and I also got a Collection base and top coat.<br />

<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
Natural Collection Powder (Translucent) £2.49</h3>
<div>
I really needed a powder and they didn't have the Rimmel Stay Matte powder which is what I usually get, so I had to just grab another one, and I felt like the Natural Collection was the safe option. The only thing is that it is a white powder and I prefer the neutral coloured powder.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3>
Dove Dermaspa Summer Revived £7.79</h3>
<div>
I saw the advert for this and thought it sounded right up my street, a lot of the time I do not get on with fake tans because I hate the smell and I thought maybe this wouldn't have that smell. It is a body lotion as well as a tanner, I'm hoping that this is a purchase that I don't regret.<br />

<br />
So I wrote these in January, and it is now March. You could say I'm late or missed the boat with the whole "Goals/Blogging Goals of 2018. I just say... *insert some cool comeback that I just can't think of right now.* But I'm here now, taking them from paper to blog and showing them to you.<br />
<br />
1. Post more consistently.<br />
This was the first goal that I thought of and the most important one that I wanted to achieve, last year I was very erratic with my posting schedule, and hence why I haven't started posting until now. I wanted to make sure that I had my s*it together (as much as I could possibly have it together) where I knew that I had a few blog post ideas to take me through at least a couple of months. Now I do, so now I'm posting.<br />
<br />
2. Update my Blog layout and design.<br />
To put it bluntly, I am not happy with the aesthetics of my blog. I want it to be pretty, clean lines and minimalist. But I just don't feel like my blog is like that. I don't feel like I can customise my blog the way I want it; I don't know whether that's because I'm on Blogspot and don't have my own domain or whether it's simply because I don't have a clue what I'm doing... Anyway, I have tried to update my blog in little ways, I want it to have a complete makeover though. Should I move over to Wordpress? Or buy my own domain? I would love any opinions and suggestions!<br />
<br />
3. Purchase my own domain.<br />
I touched on purchasing a domain in my last point, it's something that I would really love to do, to be .com rather than .blogspot.co.uk. At the moment though it is not n option, my financial priorities do not have room for blog domain funds. Maybe later on in the year I hope I can consider it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwzLLqMFanIU4m2Ewh6-GHV9BR3wsHOSReSMxSouAv_0vdAiWCjEdmZY9-RGiV3p9GYeVL8LDqzl69IhBz9tno3yr_6LLu1vAOW_MWci_JY4npJmrWHDWeyjQPwtE1vDz5vShL-F00a7U/s1600/IMG_3525.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwzLLqMFanIU4m2Ewh6-GHV9BR3wsHOSReSMxSouAv_0vdAiWCjEdmZY9-RGiV3p9GYeVL8LDqzl69IhBz9tno3yr_6LLu1vAOW_MWci_JY4npJmrWHDWeyjQPwtE1vDz5vShL-F00a7U/s400/IMG_3525.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
4. Improve the quality of my Blog photos and written content.<br />
I see so many blogs that have amazing pictures, and I get so down about the fact that I just can't seem to take the same quality photos, I don't know what it is. Maybe it's the angle, or the light, or maybe that I don't have a really good expensive camera. I am really trying to get better at flatlays etc, it'll just take time though.<br />
<br />
5. Be more active on Social Media<br />
So again I can be a bit erratic with my presence on social media, if I think of something to tweet that isn't blog related, I just end up convincing myself that no one really wants to know, I don't need to tweet it, so I don't. I want to get involved with blogger chats again (do they still happen?!) and chat with other bloggers.<br />
<br />
Do you have any blogging goals for the year? Have you achieved any yet? I'd love to know!<br />
<br />

<br />
Mother's Day has come around again in the UK, if there are any of you who are unaware Mother's Day is on Sunday 11th March, so there is still time to get the perfect gift for your mum. I love Mother's day, it's a great opportunity to say a big thank you to someone who taught you everything you know now. I've put together a little gift guide to give some inspiration to surprise your mum this Mothering Sunday.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
Mother's Day can be however you want it to be, you can just have a relaxed day with your mum not doing much, or you can make it a bigger occasion and go out meet up with family. I, personally will just be having a quiet day with my mum this year.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-weight: normal;">P A M P E R G I F T S</span></h3>
Having a pamper with mum, I think, is such a good idea, I know that it is something <i>my</i> mum would love. Gifting her some candles, bubble bath, body lotions and some new snuggly pyjamas, letting mum relax and not let her stress or lift a finger for the day. Yankee Candle has some sweet floral smelling candle gift sets. M&S and Next have great loungewear and bath products, also Lush are always great for soothing smelling products.<br />

Most places that you go you can little bits and pieces, even supermarkets can have some really cute items. These Pandora earrings are so pretty, they have some beautiful gifts for Mother's Day. Lifestyle things such as decorative hanging hearts or patterned notebooks all make lovely Mother's Day gifts.</div>

3 days in and I’ve managed another post, go me! Today is a Lush Wishlist with all the Christmas themed products that I would love to try. Lush is one of the best shops to go in anyway, but at Christmas time I get even more excited about the range of Christmassy items.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><u>Butterbear</u></b> </div>
<div>
I saw this bath bomb on someone’s blog post and I thought it sounded so good! (I can’t remember who, I will put the link here if I find it) Anything moisturising and I want it.</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Christmas Sweater</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The name of this is so cute, another bath bomb, and it has reindeer on it. I like the sound of what it’s meant to do of easing muscles so it could be good after a stressful day.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Candy Mountain</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Lush bubble bars are the one, and it has a Vanilla scent which makes it even better, I just wish I had one now to use. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>The Magic Of Christmas</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I've never used this bubble bar (like most things on this wishlist.) I love that it comes on a stick and is reusable. It looks so Christmassy and the scent is Cinnamon with Almond oil. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis4XRNxna21NMDvkxlpfoaQkH55QBmZrFM2xnPmjK5A6TteIY9jZDwMAmyeKH3OWIm1mhg3RocMohbviw5IH-eNdQ1zbBntYuhj_NcoMelhg2HfLxr6W1aKti-O5i_hTw_551TVOETeZg/s640/blogger-image--1998350116.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="199" id="id_1a2b_c93d_cb60_d6ab" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis4XRNxna21NMDvkxlpfoaQkH55QBmZrFM2xnPmjK5A6TteIY9jZDwMAmyeKH3OWIm1mhg3RocMohbviw5IH-eNdQ1zbBntYuhj_NcoMelhg2HfLxr6W1aKti-O5i_hTw_551TVOETeZg/s200/blogger-image--1998350116.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 4px auto;" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Christmas Cracker</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I think we can tell that I want a bubble bar from Lush by now haha, but I couldn't not include it, I mean it has popping candy in it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOIZ8o-VXRtbpzQMmURMLU9sl6KoAnaR8EDB1zV2BJupFZ3NFEV6uiXS9bimcNqjm_4OAd6T1l6w8uynwfSWpijDKlas0bMIWbQP3en81b2WiAp1ld5gLhl6OzZ4qfRY3LAIDEuujgbsU/s640/blogger-image-2085581665.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="199" id="id_d5cf_720a_a6bd_2db8" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOIZ8o-VXRtbpzQMmURMLU9sl6KoAnaR8EDB1zV2BJupFZ3NFEV6uiXS9bimcNqjm_4OAd6T1l6w8uynwfSWpijDKlas0bMIWbQP3en81b2WiAp1ld5gLhl6OzZ4qfRY3LAIDEuujgbsU/s200/blogger-image-2085581665.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 4px auto;" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Luxury Lush Pud</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Lastly a bath bomb, it's a bit like a Christmas pudding (hence the name) even though I don't like actual Christmas Pudding, I think I'll like this kind though. It's Lavender scented, so hopefully, it'll relax me after the stressful days preparing for Christmas. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

It’s time for Blogmas day 2 with my playlist for Christmas to help get you into the festive mood even more. Listen to them while you’re not watching the Christmas Movies from yesterday’s blog post - 5 Christmas Movies. Or whilst you’re wrapping Christmas gifts you have bought (keep your eyes peeled for my Christmas gift guides coming later on in the week) or just chilling out with family.<br />

And a happy first day of Blogmas! I kept it pretty quiet that I was attempting to do Blogmas, I knew I wanted to do <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="7ed314eb-e7ef-4a0c-a95f-f2198f8b0e1f" id="3e9c77c9-0c9f-4842-8ebe-ce68fa3ec99a">it but</gs> I wasn't sure whether I would be able to pull it off or not. I mean here I am at 7am typing up this blog post for the FIRST day of Blogmas, it's only the first day and I am already incredibly <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="11b59ac5-2632-4659-a516-110a00b9aa29" id="78258535-bf8a-4b25-b403-67aa3f12c32f">unorganised</gs>, so who knows how this will end up. I am going to stay positive and enjoy it because that's what it's all about, getting into the festive spirit and posting content that you're happy with whether that be every day, every other day or just a few times a week, it's all up to how YOU feel and what you want to do on your blog.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<br />
Anyway, I have rambled enough, onto the 5 films that I will be watching during this festive season, maybe there will be one that you haven't seen and you'll give it a go.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Elf</u></b><br />
I probably don't even need <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="2bc82e00-b5fd-46e2-9d98-99b7ab6a13b2" id="3d298b07-9209-4cb7-bf32-8ff4cc64f380">include</gs> this one... Everyone and their <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="0f79533f-e19b-4146-a35f-ff53a383828a" id="e5246873-7800-445d-816e-8a8a7d5d9ee8">mum</gs> knows the movie Elf, but it is one of my <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="0f79533f-e19b-4146-a35f-ff53a383828a" id="5c7a472d-ecf8-4616-a47b-86d3fa2aae13">faves</gs>, I never get fed up with it. It makes me feel so festive and has become a classic film to watch, it's such a funny film for anyone and everyone to watch.<br />

<b><u>The Holiday</u></b><br />
This film is a really cute story with four very well known faces, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jack Black and Jude Law. If you enjoy a romantic comedy then you'll definitely love this.</div>

<b><u>A Christmas Carol</u></b><br />
The animated version, of course! Animated Christmas movies are my <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="e3bbc4fb-0b7b-4ae1-8fdc-fa31fa8772d1" id="1b6c3c23-6b2c-4365-bf87-2b9744d0fc58">favourite</gs> kind and I wish that there were more of them around. All of the adaptations of Scrooge are amazing, but in my opinion, I think this is the best one.</div>

<b><u>Christmas With The Kranks</u></b><br />
I haven't actually seen this film that many times, but when it has been on it has made me laugh so much, there are some really funny moments with Jamie-Lee Curtis starring in it makes it even better. Definitely worth watching.<br />

On Friday I posted my Beauty Advent Calendars Under £50.00 if you haven't read it yet you can check it out here. Most of the advent calendars on the market are over £50 and I found this post very difficult having to choose just five as there are so many nice ones and I would be happy to have any of them to be honest.<br />
<br />

<br />
1. Clarins 12 Day Advent Calendar<br />
Let's start off with the slightly cheaper Advent Calendars and work our way up. First is Clarins for £60, not too badly priced and you get 12 days. The packaging is lovely and you could definitely reuse it after you've finished opening it. If you are a Clarins fan then you could always treat yourself! Mainly consisting of skincare items, you do get a couple of makeup items and a candle, which I think is a really great idea, having a nice candle really relaxes me. They also have one with 24 days which I saw after I had seen this one for £95.00.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
2. Clinique - 24 Days Of Clinique<br />
Clinique is the first high-end brand that I bought some makeup from with my mum, so I think their advent calendar is worth including. There are 24 days for £79.00 which really isn't bad for 24 Clinique products, they haven't filled any days with rubbish nail files or stickers... You get a range of skincare and makeup items - but mainly skincare. All being mini versions, it includes one of their 3-step skincare systems. As most people know all their products are fragrance-free and this is one of the reasons why I love Clinique.<br />
<br />

3. Deluxe Rituals<br />
I don't know much about Rituals as a brand, I haven't tried any of their products, you're probably wondering how I can include their advent calendar if I don't even know anything about the products or brand. I've seen lots of positive reviews of products from Rituals. Also, their advent calendar the shape of it is a 3D Christmas Tree! So for design reasons I had to include it. Right?!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
4. Cowshed Advent Calendar<br />
I'm including one that I haven't seen many people talk about in other blog posts or YouTube videos that I've watched. Cowshed have created a 24-day advent calendar with some of their most loved products in minatures for your hands, hair, face and body, perfect for someone who enjoys body lotions and bath and shower gels.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
5. Fenwick Advent Calendar<br />
Oh my goodness, I think this is my favourite one, I love everything about it. I really like the design of the Fenwick Advent Calendar, a very wintery, snowy design of a Fenwick store. I think all advent calendars should be a proper Christmassy design whether they are filled with beauty products or chocolate. It has two doors that open out and those doors reveal the 24 little doors filled with either full-size or deluxe travel-size beauty treats good enough for an excited squeal each day, including products from Charlotte Tilbury, MAC, NARS. It's quite similar to the John Lewis one with what brands are included. It's an expensive calendar at £150, but it would make a perfect gift for someone!<br />

<br />
I have been hunting the internet for this year's Beauty Advent Calendars, this is one of my favourite blog posts to do, I can dream about which advent calendars I would buy if I had an endless pot of money. I found it really hard to pick out a selected number of advent calendars as a lot of brands are stepping up their game with designs and products. So I thought it was best to split the blog posts into two with two different price ranges, in this post I have chosen 5 calendars under £50, which, won't come as a surprise, wasn't really too difficult to pick out as pretty much all the advent calendars are over £50, so my choice wasn't as varied.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
I've done it in like a countdown style working up to my favourite under £50.00 Advent Calendar.<br />
<u><b><br /></b></u>
<u><b>5. NYX Lippie Countdown Advent Calendar - £50.00</b></u><br />
This is for those lip product lovers. The advent calendar is filled with 24 days, full of different NYX lip products, ranging from their soft and silky butter gloss to their amazing Soft Matte Lip Creams. It would have been nice to see them do one with a range of all their products so you could try out a few things from their brand, but it's still a great advent calendar and I would enjoy opening each door. It is £50.00 so if you're not that into lipsticks or you like to have more of a variety of products, then this advent calendar probably isn't for you.<br />

<br />
<br />
<u><b>4. Essie Nail Polish Advent Calendar 24 Day Christmas Countdown - £40</b></u><br />
I love Essie as a brand and their amazing range of nail polish colours. You get 24 days of different nail polishes, ranging from gel couture, their standard colour polishes, and some nail care items. They've also included 5 shades that are exclusive to the calendar. Again, if you like a variety of products then an advent calendar full of nail polishes is not going to be for you. But as Essie is a brand that sells only nail items then you know that's what you're getting. I have a bit of an obsession with nail products so I would be very excited with this calendar! Oh also, it is currently £40 in Superdrug reduced from £80!!<br />

<br />
<u><b><br /></b></u>
<u><b>3. Benefit Winter WonderGLAM 2017 - £34.50</b></u><br />
Benefit I think were one of the first brands that introduced me to beauty advent calendars. Benefit Cosmetics do some great products that get included in this calendar. The calendar has 12 days, and with those 12 days, you get 12 mini products, such as a mini Roller Lash (which is one of my FAVE mascaras), Hooler Bronzer plus lots of other Benefit goodies.<br />

<u><b>2. Soap & Glory It's A Calendar, Girls! - £40</b></u><br />
I can't remember if S&G have done an advent calendar before (a year is a long time!) I think this is really good value for money, you get 24 days, it's £40, I know you only get really small amounts of some of the products, but you also get some really good sized items and the scents of their products are lovely! Some of the items you get are the Thick and Fast Mascara, Hand Food and Heel Genius to name just a few.<br />

<u><b>1. M&S Beauty Advent Calendar</b></u><br />
The winner of my Advent Calendars under £50 is M&S (also my winner for the best Christmas Advert this year.) M&S always do really well with their beauty advent calendars and this year is no different. The packaging is so cute, it looks really Christmassy. There are 25 days and it is priced at £35 IF you spend £35 on clothing/home/beauty - so a bit of a catch there. They have included some amazing brands such as Emma Hardie, Pixi, Ren and it goes on. Definitely one for those beauty lovers who like that variety of beauty brands. This is sold out online but check your local store.<br />

<br />
In September I was lucky enough to receive my very first Influenster VoxBox which I was very excited about, I know I'm a little late to the party with this, but it really is the first chance that I have had to sit down and write about the products. The complimentary box contained the brand new Rimmel Lasting Foundation and concealer, along with a Kate Moss sculpting palette and a lipstick.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
I'll be honest, when my little Influenster box arrived I was asleep when the postman banged on my door (which wasn't appreciated) and so I didn't actually know it was there until I went out later that day, because he had left it on my doorstep and not bothered to put a card through the door. However, I was very excited when I found it.<br />
<br />
So onto the actual products now, First up we have the Rimmel Lasting Finish Breathable Foundation, and it says that it's Rimmel's most lightweight, longwearing formula and lasts up to 25 hours with a light to medium buildable coverage. When I applied it, it was a light coverage, it is definitely buildable but I don't really like putting on more than one layer of foundation. It had a very matte finish which made my face look quite flat (when I've heard people say that I never really knew what they meant until I used this foundation). It gave a very natural finish and looked like my skin and I felt like I had nothing on my face which I liked. I received the lightest shade and I think if I'd of had a shade darker I think it would have looked so much better, the shade I got was just too light.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
I used a brush to apply and finished it off with a beauty blender, blending it was easy if you work with it quickly, I didn't get long from putting it on my face to it starting to dry before I'd finished blending. Something I haven't mentioned is that it has SPF which is a big plus as there aren't enough foundations around with SPF in.<br />
The applicator of this foundation is a doe foot which I have never used before with a foundation before, I really liked it, it makes it simple to apply reducing the risk of spillages. There are thirteen shades of this foundation which isn't too bad but I hope they extend further.<br />
<br />
The Lasting Finish Breathable Concealer, again there are things that I like and dislike about it. The colour I liked because I quite often prefer to have a lighter concealer to give a more highlighted look, I also like the sponge applicator, I know it's probably not the most hygienic kind of applicator but using something softer around the eyes is so much better in such a delicate area. Again I am not too keen on how it blends out, it doesn't blend out very well as it drys too quickly, it is also very light coverage and doesn't really cover up my blemishes which is what I want a concealer to do, so I would only use it under my eyes. With this concealer there are only six shades, so they definitely need to bring out a few more shades!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Along with the new foundation and concealer, I received the Kate Moss Sculpting Palette in Coral Glow. When I swatched it, I thought it came out quite powdery and it took a lot to build up colour (the pigmentation wasn't great is what I'm trying to say). They seemed powdery when I put a brush to them as well, however, when I applied it to my face it actually came out pretty well. The contour is a good shade and you don't need too much to give a subtle contour, the blush came out really nice on my cheeks too, it is slightly orangey (with it being a coral shade). I do normally go for a blush shade with a shimmer, so this is a little matte for me, but makes a lovely subtle daytime look. As for the highlighter; this was the least impressive, it is not very pigmented, is matte and doesn't look like I have put any on. I like to have that real pigmented glow where it's a real shimmery glow.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Finally the lipstick in the shade Vintage Pink, I have never purchased one of their Moisture Renew lipsticks before. The shade I received isn't the normal kind of colour I would go for with it being a pinky shade with lilac/purple tones. I love how moisturising it is, it didn't dry my lips out at all and is pretty pigmented too. I would definitely pick up one of these in another shade.<br />

This was my final look, using just the Rimmel products on my face. I would recommend trying these as they are good products, whilst some of them might not be for me I can see that they are really good products. The foundation retails for £8.99 and the concealer is £6.49.<br />
<br />
Let me know in the comments if you have tried any of these products an what your thoughts are!<br />

It's Halloween tomorrow, I'm still excited even though I'm not actually doing anything for it this year. I'm annoyed I didn't get to do more Halloween themed blog posts this year, but I have had quite a lot of stuff going on recently, I have managed though, to come up with some movies I think would be good to watch tomorrow night if you're having a quiet one. I have covered everything from Children's' movies to comedy to your classic horror film.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>1. Practical Magic</u></b><br />
I love Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman as a duo in this film. It's about two witches who are sisters that live with their aunts' who also have powers. They are very different in personality and in the film they use their magic powers on spells for love. Not a scary film really, but Witchy vibes are perfect for Halloween.<br />
<br />
<b><u>2. Hocus Pocus</u></b><br />
You can't help but love this movie, it's Disney so you know it's pretty safe. Three witches who are brought back to life, causing trouble and two teens and a young girl have the job of stopping them and their trouble. I mean it's a classic, Bette Midler is amazing, you have to watch if you haven't already.<br />
<br />
<b><u>3. Shaun Of The Dead</u></b><br />
For the comedy lovers, if you want something light and fairly easy to watch then this is the film for you. Sean and his friend basically have to fight off an army of zombies trying to save their loved ones along the way. This is a film my dad and I watch together as we have the same sense of humor, he finds it particularly funny.<br />
<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>4. Halloween</u></b><br />
The classic horror movie, you can't not watch at least one of the Halloween movies, starring Jamie Lee Curtis, they are creepy, scary and have some good jump scary parts, just my level of scariness where I can still watch the actual film and not spend the whole time covering my eyes, I never get bored of these movies.<br />
<br />
<b><u>5. The Ring</u></b><br />
A more modern horror film, and one that I haven't seen, this is one that I want to try and attempt to watch, I have watched the beginning, but I had to switch it off because I literally could not face what was going to happen, we are talking at the very beginning of the film, you know how I said not covering your eyes for the entire movie, yeah, well that's what I would probably be doing with this movie. As it is Halloween though, I will try and give it another go.<br />
<br />
<b>Bonus:</b> A bonus one, it's not a film, but I definitely think it is worth including in this post and that is, American Horror Story, it is a TV series I know, but if you want to get into something pretty gritty I would say, and this is exactly my kind of scary then give it go!<br />
<br />
What are you doing for Halloween this year? Which scary films will you be watching? Let me know!<br />
<br />
Happy Halloween!<br />

<br />
Autumn is one of my favourite seasons, along with Summer, although I don't like how cold it has been so far this year, it's too soon for it to be this cold! This is just a little easy read post of some of the reasons why I love Autumn.<br />
<div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div>
<h4>
1. My Birthday</h4>
</div>
<div>
I am an Autumn baby, my Birthday is in September and I love that I'm an Autumn baby. The leaves are golden on the trees, the weather is slightly colder but there are crisp days with some lovely sunshine and the evenings are still fairly light. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h4>
2. Halloween! </h4>
</div>
<div>
One of my favourite occasions is Halloween! I really enjoy decorating the house with Halloween decorations, making little crafts and dressing up, Halloween snacks, Pumpkins. Basically just everything.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h4>
3. Candles</h4>
</div>
<div>
It's the time of year where we can pull out those autumnal smelling candles (maybe make a few new purchases) and create that warm, cosy feeling, smelling Pumpkin spice wherever you go.<br />
<h4>
<br />4. Autumnal Fashion</h4>
The transitional fashion can be tricky but you can get some really great pieces, especially if you live in the UK, we always need those transitional items as we get a fair bit of in-between weather. I also like it because you can add a jacket and you're good to go, you don't need to put 20 layers on yet. The colours for Autumn are gorgeous too.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<h4>
</h4>
</div>
<div>
<h4>
</h4>
<h4>
5. Cosy Evenings</h4>
<div>
Cosy days and evenings are the best, where you can just curl up on the sofa, in your comfy PJs with all the soft blankets and cushions (and those candles) watching a movie with some homemade treats.</div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
They are just a few reasons as to why I love Autumn, I think after talking all things Autumn I'm going to go and get a hot chocolate.<br />
What is your favourite thing about Autumn?<br />

We are heading into the Autumn/Winter season at full speed now, Summer literally left overnight and it got noticeably colder so quickly. Around the beginning of Spring/Summer, I had written a blog post of the trends that were going to be dominant throughout the seasons but I never got around to posting it. So instead of it going completely to waste, I am going to do a round up post of what trends have been around for Spring and Summer, and I have included some items that you can still get.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b><u>Stripes</u></b><br />
Stripes were a big trend throughout SS17, they were all over the catwalks and they came in just about every form from Pinstripes seen at Mulberry to thick stripes to bold and bright - of which were particularly in. I have to confess, I don't actually own anything with stripes but it's because stripes never used to suit me and I've been too scared to try them again ever since.<br />

<br />
<b><u>Pink</u></b><br />
It is no exaggeration when I say that I have seen pink EVERYWHERE during SS, and this one of the trends that I particularly loved and still do, it's still going strong and I am going to continue to wear pink. My favourite shade is the pastel tones, but I know the fuchsia tone was hot on the catwalks with Celine, Valentino along with others, and I am a big fan, but I feel like pastel pink is more for me and a bit more versatile.<br />

<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>Bralettes</u></b><br />
Bralettes popped up countless times this year on the runway, I like putting a bralette with a high waisted skirt. For the coming months, I would maybe add a blazer or biker jacket to keep a little bit warmer, but definitely still rock them. I really loved some crochet ones that I have seen in various places and Celine featured them in their SS shows.<br />

<b><u>Ruffles</u></b><br />
These were about last Autumn/Winter and they transitioned into the next season. Dolce & Gabbana had pretty, cute ruffles and floral prints which gave all the Summer feels. There were a whole variety of designs with different pieces of clothing including tea dresses and maxi dresses, with delicate ruffles and those floral prints that I mentioned on loose, flowing material. This was something you could really play with as you could dress it up or down.<br />

<br />
<b><u>Statement Sleeves</u></b><br />
Forget just your standard hemmed sleeves, the bigger the better. Longer sleeves that come over the fingertips, with varying designs for a statement finish. Puffed sleeves or sleeves with ties at the end or, the whole way down the arm. My favourite are the fluted sleeves, big or small, I loved it during Spring/Summer and I will continue into the Autumn/Winter.<br />

<br />
I love writing a good gift guide and I have done a fair few over time on my blog, I always have someone's Birthday I need to shop for or sometimes I like to just a buy someone a little something. I have partnered up with Uncommon Goods who have something for everyone with their beautiful unique handmade gifts.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Uncommon Goods is an online <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="26627774-1ae0-4a18-b013-ded1cf9ec6ec" id="02bc3be0-79a4-4514-8aa6-66bc06919b5f">marketplace </gs>created by Dave Bolotsky for makers and their crafts where they can connect with individuals looking for those special, unique pieces no matter where they are. You can also learn a little bit about the creator when you click on the product which I think is a nice touch.<br />
<br />
Another thing I wanted to touch on are the causes that Uncommon <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="962b9953-7266-499b-a03e-cd5dc5649be6" id="4b7dc91b-b10e-49d5-a345-5e36bfbdd1e7">Goods</gs> support. They have a program called "Better to Give" where with every purchase you make they donate $1 to a Better to Give partner of your choice. Since starting this program in 2001 they have donated over $1,000,000 which is amazing!<br />
<br />
So now onto the Gift Guide, with a whole range of gifts no matter who you're shopping for...<br />
<br />
<b><u>Birth Month Flower Necklace</u></b><br />

First up are these Birth Flower Necklaces which I think are such a lovely gift idea, it adds a personal touch. They are handmade in New York using dried pressed flowers with a sterling silver chain, you can also get matching earrings.<br />

<b><u>Custom What Big Sister Does Best Book</u></b></div>

This is a gift for the little ones, it's such a sweet idea, especially as a new baby can cause worry and jealousy, but this little book will help them to see how they can be a great big sister. Their name appears on the cover and throughout the book, which would make any little girl happy. There are so many more personalised gift ideas over on <a href="https://www.uncommongoods.com/gifts/personalized/personalized-gifts" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Uncommon Goods</a>.<br />

<b><u>Good Friends Are Like Stars Necklace</u></b><br />
This is a beautiful piece of jewellery, perfect for your best friend, it has an etched quote on sterling silver, a rock crystal, and a gold charm. It is on the slightly more pricey side, however, again it is handmade and I think it is totally worth it for that special friend. I found it so difficult choosing as there are so many lovely <a href="https://www.uncommongoods.com/sets/gifts-for-best-friends" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">gifts for a friend</a> on their website.<br />

<b><u>Literary Candles</u></b></div>
<div>
Who doesn't love a candle? I certainly do, and these scented candles come in cute jars that look like jam jars. The names of these candles are based on the locations in classic books, we have; 'A Mad Tea Party' from Alice in Wonderland, '221B Baker Street' from Sherlock Holmes, 'Pemberley' from Pride and Prejudice and finally 'Thornfield Garden from Jane Eyre. They are sold individually and would make an ideal gift for the bookworm who loves candles.<br />

<b><u><br /></u></b> <b><u>Four Seasons Necklace</u></b><br />
A gorgeous collection of necklaces with charms on to represent the season. The charms are on an 18-carat gold vermeil or sterling silver chain. This would make a perfect gift for a loved one that comes handmade all the way from Hawaii.

<br />
At the end of the month it is my Birthday (the 30th for those of you interested) and I am going to be 21, I cannot believe that I'm going to be 21, I don't act mature enough, I'm not going to think about it too much I'm quite immature still and I'm not going to change anytime soon haha. I have been asked what I want for my Birthday and when someone asks me my mind just goes blank when throughout the year, I have been saying that I love this and that.<br />
<br />
As it is my 21st Birthday (have I said that enough times yet?) I would love to receive something that I can keep and treasure. I can be quite sentimental with gifts, I like to give things that people can keep, especially when it's a big Birthday.<br />
I have thought of some things that I would love to receive and I thought why not make it into a blog post.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Just a quick disclaimer, it isn't about the presents at all, people have asked me what I would like for my Birthday, I never expect to receive things and I have always said this to people.<br />

Pandora is one of my favourite brands for jewellery, I have a charm bracelet and I would love to add to it. My birthstone is a Sapphire, a beautiful deep blue colour. I love wearing that colour, so either a piece of jewellery or a charm to add to my bracelet would make me very happy.<br />

I think a watch is a lovely item to receive. I'm not too sure of the exact watch that I want but I do love the Olivia Burton watches, they have some gorgeous designs, and I like the Michael Kors watches too.<br />

It's coming up to back to school, college, uni etc and that means lots of new stationery, or maybe you just want to buy yourself some new treats. You can never have too much stationery, right? One of my favourite shops to browse in is Paperchase, so while I was on their website I thought I might as well put some of my fave items I found in a blog post for you to use in whatever way you wish. I have created a list to satisfy some of your stationery needs and wants.<br />

<b><br /></b> Hello!<br />
<br />
I have been nominated a few times for the Liebster Award, I've just never got around to doing <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="d68c910f-3335-4ae9-a4ea-e16929571a1f" id="435aa7ae-d1f3-4bea-bde2-3dcf31a3bc45"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="6888eb13-2a41-42be-917a-a448b86709d1" id="959170d7-e33d-4c57-a394-a0ff45190a59">it but</gs></gs> I am so grateful and excited that I've been nominated. This award is a range of questions asked by bloggers to help bring them into the blogosphere and get to know one another.<br />
I was nominated by the lovely Tanya from TanyaTalks, thank you so much for nominating me!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
The questions Tanya asked:<br />
<b><br /></b> <b>1. What made you start blogging?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> I started blogging because I love writing and I was always looking at all these pretty blogger pages with lovely photos and I wanted to give it a go. I wanted somewhere that I could express my thoughts and talk about things I'd bought. I wasn't sure that I'd keep it up at the very beginning as I didn't know how it would go, but I loved it and I didn't want to stop!<br />
<br />
<b>2. What is your life goal?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> When I first read this question, it was my career goal that came to mind first and that is to be an actress, it's my absolute <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="dcf67e82-262b-436f-a19c-ccb9c24e342e" id="8dc36f87-9f99-4d70-a91e-8fbad65b6748"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="765a21f4-fa60-4e0e-a3fe-453664258511" id="d8d9f431-eab8-43c8-b0bf-98c36ddffaa5">dreaaam</gs></gs>! I would also love to travel for a bit, then have a nice house and be comfortable financially. I just want to be happy and to share it all with someone, and have a family. So that is I suppose my overall life goals.<br />
<br />
<b>3. What is one good and bad thing about the blogging community?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> Hmm, one good thing about the blogging community are all the other bloggers that you can talk to and get to know through social media, and you can share the same interests, is such a creative community.<br />
One bad thing is the bitchiness that can happen, it's a shame that such an open and diverse community of bloggers there can be a few that think they are above others, and even people trying to bring others down, why do it?! Can't we all just be happy growing our own blog and being happy for others that are doing well too?<br />
<br />
<b>4. What's your one tip for newbie bloggers?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> I still feel like I'm fairly new to blogging, but one tip I would give is to not put too much pressure on yourself in the beginning, write about what YOU want and post when YOU want to post it. It's your space to do what you want with.<br />
<br />
<b>5. If you could pick one food to eat for the rest of your life what would it be?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> Omg, I actually struggled with this, I thought it was going to be easy <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="797ee17e-786e-4cfb-91a8-bd297d1ed641" id="483289f6-0bd1-48b7-a78f-da3ad58d917f"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="f5f45c0c-2be1-4d21-bd1b-19971c0e91d7" id="f54c06d4-aa5c-4c4d-b5a4-27a1301691d7">haha</gs></gs>. It was out of pizza, pasta and chocolate, I think I'd get sick of chocolate so I crossed that out. I'd probably go with pasta, I do love a good bowl of pasta with Mozzarella cheese, not the healthiest I know but I. LOVE. IT.<br />
<br />
<b>6. What are two things on your bucket list?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> To travel round America, maybe live in L.A for a bit, that is the <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="fc63aeee-24be-4670-bb20-078924502efc" id="50df4299-9ed8-49e6-87fd-352a153a3f73"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="a5ac28cb-8439-4de5-9da2-426bea251c77" id="57e1f07f-77ba-41a7-a440-4957d8e09a0b">dreammm</gs></gs>! And to start a YouTube channel, I just <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="56b09639-b4c0-4d58-b8f5-dc26471c6ef7" id="d705bffa-3f70-478d-a460-dbab2793b042"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="a6933f00-1f70-4129-b278-e796e47e816c" id="654ec692-8040-4312-9198-5d5b3f4ecf54">gotta</gs></gs> pluck up the courage.<br />
<br />
<b>7. What do you do in your free time?</b><br />
<b><br /></b> I blog <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="80b3ddc8-5d99-45d4-80d5-471d1b2aad9d" id="71df6474-91c0-489e-b390-d4e004d50606"><gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="278c70ab-4cae-4cae-a49b-e801f41d3d8a" id="0bc33f16-a0cc-4e78-9054-5a9e0f82e9cf">haha</gs></gs>! But if I'm not blogging I like to catch up with YouTube or snuggle up and watch TV or a good film.<br />

I haven't been buying many things recently which is good because I haven't been spending money that I don't have, but bad as I haven't had pretty new things to look at and use. However I've bought the odd things over a period of time, and I thought I'd share the items bought with you.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
First up is a product from Makeup Revolution, items from them have been floating around quite a bit recently and have been highly popular with bloggers as the quality of the product seems to be high and the price pretty low, so that's a win-win all round. I decided to join in on the hype and I purchased this highlight as my first MR product to try, in the shade Golden Lights. It gives a lovely shimmer with golden tones showing. I've only used it once or twice but I love it, I like to apply this lightly with my fingers initially and then brush it out slightly, the glow it gives is amazing and only costing £3 from Superdrug it is an absolute bargain for such a pigmented product.<br />

<br />
Next product is the Clinique Exfoliating Scrub, I first tried this product when the Clinique girl gave me a sample of it as I was having some skin troubles and I loved it. I use it and my skin feels like it has had a really good clean, it gets rid of all those dead skin cells and any build up of product. Once I'd used all of the sample I really missed having it there so I had to order one. I use it about twice a week as it's definitely not an everyday thing but Clinique do have a scrub you can use every day, but I prefer to just use something a couple of times a week. It was £21.00 but I think it's probably worth the money, I can't wait to use it more and I'll do a review and let you know what I think of it.<br />
<br />
<br />
Another Clinique item, it's the Body Tinted Lotion in light-medium, this isn't a recent purchase but I've only just started using it so I thought I'd include it anyway. The price of this is £20.00 which really, is the going rate for a tanning lotion if you want a good quality one. It's 100% fragrance-free which is something that I particularly wanted, oil free and dermatologist tested, I have sensitive skin so it hopefully shouldn't give me a reaction. Again, I will do a review when I've used it properly a few times.<br />

As some of you may know I have been struggling to find and eye makeup remover that I like and I wanted a cream formula, I couldn't find a cream one anywhere so I went for a liquid one from The Body Shop as their products are natural. It has Camomile in it which makes it soothing for the eyes and I'm looking forward to using it.<br />

*Quick note, I wrote this earlier on in May and have only just been able to upload it, I really didn't want to change much in the opening paragraph so I hope you don't mind!<br />
<br />
Yay, it's finally May! (Almost June, I know) May/June are probably my favourite months, the weather has been SO lovely this week! I really feel like Summer is coming as the vibes change and the mood lifts with the weather improving - it's a great feeling. April for me was a difficult month as I had little motivation, April is a transitional month, it can still be quite chilly and rainy and it really affects my mood, I'm just waiting for the next month. But now that is passing over and Summer is coming so I've set myself some goals to give me something to focus on.<br />

<u>Post On My Blog Once A Week</u></h3>
<div>
I have been seriously slacking with my blog, I really want to write good content and when I have written something I haven't felt like it has been good enough to post. I want to have good text that you enjoy reading (actually making sense would be a bonus) AND pretty pictures that you find interesting to look at, bloggers picture game is so high and I have no idea to be honest how to get to that level, haha, but I'm learning! I need to get some pretty props and look for a background to help improve the quality of my pictures. But I am going to set a day and a time to post on my blog once a week with the possibility of increasing it. You can follow my blog HERE to keep up with my posts.<br />

<u>Post More On Social Media</u></h3>
<div>
Like my blog, I haven't been posting enough on social media. On Twitter I get involved with lots of chats and speak to lots of lovely bloggers, but I haven't really been engaging with anyone or made any good friendships and one of the reasons I started blogging was to make friends with some people that I had things in common with, this may sound strange but I just don't know how to. Anyway, I need to 'learn' to tweet on social media just about something I'm doing or thinking, or when I see someone tweet and I think I have something to say or I could help in some way then just go ahead and speak to them and not be scared! Follow me on Twitter <a href="http://www.twitter.com/maybeautytrendx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a> and say hello!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Instagram, people are so good on Instagram, they seem to have an amazing flatlay to post almost every day, a really pretty fashion post or they have been on an exciting outing, then there are travel bloggers with the best kind of posts! To be honest, I don't have the time or props to make lots of flatlays, I'm only home in the evening and we all know that you need that natural light for those photos, I know it sounds like I'm making excuses but these are all obstacles that get in the way. Whilst I can't post on Instagram every day, I will definitely try and post more and interact frequently.</div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<u>Become More Motivated In General</u></h3>
<div>
Recently I have lacked motivation which I mentioned above. I have been feeling really tired a lot of the time, and when I get that dropping tired feeling I cannot do anything, I simply don't have the energy. I'm going to try and get a proper good nights sleep, hopefully feeling bright and more awake will give me some motivation and I'll want to do other things as well. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Read And Comment On More Blog Posts</h3>
<div>
I read bloggers blog posts whenever I get some free time along with watching YouTube and writing for my own blog, but I never really comment on them, I some great posts and I don't tell them how good it was or that I really connected with something that they have written, I know how much it means to receive a comment on a blog post because it makes me super happy when somebody takes the time to leave a lovely comment. I've like blog posts on Twitter to read when I get a minute sometimes though, I don't get round to it. So I will put aside more time and organise it better to read lots of amazing blogs.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Do A Bullet Journal For A Month</h3>
<div>
I've seen a lot of people talk about and do bullet journals, however, this something I'm scared to do. I have been interested in starting one, just trying it out for a month or so, I worry that I'll mess it up somehow though. I do need to get more organised though (as I have too many times) and a bullet journal might help me to organise my time better and tasks that I need to get done, so I'll have to give it a go.<br />

Learn Something New</h3>
<div>
I love learning new skills but I've never really got the time or peace and quiet to learn new skills. I've always wanted to learn the piano, that isn't an option though as we don't have the space for a piano. I used to French when I was at school and I would love to be able to speak fluently in another language, so I am going to try and teach myself some French or Italian - I'll keep you updated on how it goes! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Keep Being Active</h3>
<div>
I've been doing really well with my workouts and keeping fit this year. But now I want to start toning up more, and rather than just always working out at home I'd really like to start going out for walks or for a run regularly for fitness reasons and to help mentally. I live in the countryside with lots of fields around so plenty of quiet space ideal for clearing my mind. If we get more weather like we had this week then that will make it a lot easier.<br />

Instagram Stories</h3>
<div>
I love watching people's Instagram stories, seeing what they're up to, and I have attempted a couple of times, I don't feel like I have much worth showing though. But when I do I want to try and share it. Or maybe I'll just share my really boring days as well.

I'll begin now.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
I have been on the hunt for a new eye makeup remover for what seems like ages. I was using the Simple kind to eyes cream formula - which I was quite happy with, but when I went to pick up a new one to stock up I could not find it <i>anywhere, </i>I could only see the new one that they had replaced it with which wasn't a cream formula but a liquid one, I was most disappointed. I tend to avoid liquid eye makeup removers as I've used them before and they dry my eyes out so badly! My eyelids become like the Sahara Desert. I have very sensitive eyes and I felt the Simple Cream was the only one that didn't dry my eyes out. <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">I searched high and </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">low, but nope, all I could see were other brands and formulas of which I didn't feel like I knew enough about the product or the brand to actually buy them. So eventually I went back to Simple and purchased their new eye makeup remover that had replaced my beloved cream one. After all that searching I ended up where I'd started. You're probably thinking bloody hell it's just an eye makeup remover... Rambly part over now onto the actual review haha!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="background-color: white;" /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">I had a proper look at the product when I got home as I was quite interested in trying something different. It is a two part formula made up of s cleansing oil and vitamin enriched water which needs to be shaken to activate the formula. Reading the label on the back of the product it said that it dissolves waterproof eye makeup, I don't tend to wear waterproof makeup so that part didn't fuss me. It also said that no rubbing was needed, you just had to gently wipe the area which pleases me because I had been worrying that I was sometimes being too rough with my eyes. So reading this I was looking forward to having soft, soothed, moisturised eyes.</span><br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12.8px;"><u><b>How To Use It</b></u></span></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">So when it came to taking my eye makeup off, I went into my bathroom clutching the little bottle of potion, I put a small amount onto the cotton wool pad as it said you only needed a small amount, I placed the cotton wool pad over my eye just sort of pressing it there for a few seconds to help start breaking down the makeup. I then gently wipe over my eye outwards, and to be honest I was kind of expecting it to have taken pretty much all of my makeup off... But it hadn't, it had taken all of my eyeshadow off, however, my mascara and eyeliner were completely still intact, it had not budged one bit! (I wasn't wearing waterproof) I just thought 'oh maybe I was </span><i style="color: #222222;">too </i><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">gentle on my eye.' In the end, I had shaken a lot more product onto the cotton wool pad and wiping at my eye quite harshly to get all traces off. Even after using it I can still see remnants of black eyeliner and mascara smeared around my eyes making me look like I've had a rough night out and woken up with my makeup still on my face. I've tried using it a fair few times now and things I don't like just keep popping up, such as; more often than not when I use it, it makes my eyes sting to the point where I have to stop and cannot open my eyes.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><b><u>Overall Review</u></b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">So my overall opinion of the Simple Dual Effect Eye Makeup Remover is that I basically do not like it. I have to use so much product to get all the makeup off and even then I have to go around my eyes with my facial cleanser to get all of it off. It stings my eyes so much it makes me cry when it says no rubbing needed and it doesn't sting eyes and both of those things have happened to me! It also does dry my eyes out a bit which I cannot stand. The only good thing is that it takes my eyeshadow off nice and easily. Simple please bring back the cream formula!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Have you tried this particular eye makeup remover, did it work for you?</span></div>
<div>

The past couple of weeks I have had really bad writers block and I feel like I haven't been able to come up with an idea good enough to publish, hence why I did not post anything last week and I am two days late this week - <i>if you didn't know my usual posting day is Tuesday :). </i>With the cloud that is writer's block now hopefully passing, I thought of quite a simple post for me to start off with, which is my top beauty products for a beginner. If you are new on the blogging scene and wanting to start building up that makeup collection, or if you are just starting to get into putting makeup on ya face and you're not quite sure what items you should start off with, then hopefully this post will help you out!<br />

<br />
<br />
Now I am by no means an expert on makeup, these things are what I started off with when I got into makeup. I have picked out a few products which I have tried or I have seen good reviews on, to help you out a little bit more.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<u><b>Concealer</b></u></h3>
<div>
You might be like '<i>Sophie, why aren't you starting with foundation?!' </i>But t<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">The very first makeup product that I used when I was starting to explore the world of makeup was a concealer, I was starting to get the odd blemish pop up and my </span>mum<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> suggested that I try concealer, and she took me to get my first concealer as obviously I had no clue back then. It was one of those Rimmel stick concealers - <i>who remembers those</i>?! I loved it at the time and felt like a cool kid because I had an item of makeup. If you're just getting started with makeup and you're not ready to wear a foundation or you're in school and not allowed to wear makeup but you have a blemish you feel self-conscious about (this was my situation), then no one is ever going to know if you've got a little bit of concealer on... If you get the right shade. I wouldn't recommend the </span>stick<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> ones, but I have suggested some below.</span><br />

<u><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b>Foundation</b></span></span></u></h3>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Foundation is the main base product for your face and it took me a few tries before I found a foundation that suited my skin, my </span>mum<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> again helped pick out a foundation- telling me which brand and the right </span>colour<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">. I would try and find out whether you have oily skin, dry skin, combination or normal, a good thing to do is go to a makeup counter such as Clinique, even if you're not going to buy anything they'll give you some advice on your skin and tell you which type of foundation you would suit e.g. Matte or dewy etc. You can then go away and know what you're looking for a bit more.</span><br />

<h3>
<b> <span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><u>Powder</u></span></b></h3>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is essential if you have oily skin. I had very oily skin throughout school, I would constantly have an oily T-zone, it was very annoying but I control it better now. It also depends on what foundation you are using for example if you have oily skin and you're using a dewy foundation it's not going to have the best outcome. Powder was a very important product for me, I used to use a loose powder, but I think a pressed powder is a better choice if it's just to mattify the shine on your face and it is a lot more transportable. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">To add a little something to the eyes, don't jump in trying to blend multiple </span>colours<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> of eyeshadow and doing winged eyeliner because it most likely won't end up how you thought it would, no matter how many YouTube videos you watch.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Lip balm is the perfect starter in my opinion, whether it be just a standard </span>moisturising<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> one or a tinted lip balm. Adding something to my lips to keep them looking </span>moisturised<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> was very important for me, I didn't always necessarily want any colour. I was a fan of the old vaseline when I was in school, most of the time I carried one around in my bag. Even though my knowledge of makeup has developed massively I still like to keep it simple sometimes with just a quick swipe of lip balm, my lips HAVE to be </span>moisturised<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">!</span><br />

<br />
With Mother's Day coming up on Sunday 26th March (this Sunday!) I thought I'd come up with some suggestions of what to do and gifts to buy. I love Mother's Day, I really like to spoil my mum with gifts and treats, like my mum likes my homemade bakes so I try and bake a cake I know she likes. I've been browsing the internet for ideas for Mother's Day, so if you're a bit stuck for what to get your mum or maybe you want some extra ideas, then carry on reading!<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="more"></a><br />
<br />
<br />
For me Mother's Day is all about pampering, to make my mum feel calm and relaxed. A good thing to do with your mum would be a Spa Experience, book a weekend away at a posh spa for your mum and yourself, or book one or two treatments. You don't have to spend a lot of money, you could stay at home and create your own spa with some face masks and some other treatments. It's about spending quality time with your mum and having fun.<br />
<br />
Breakfast in bed is a good one, so many people do this for their mum! I cook my mum breakfast and we sit together having our breakfast - it's a lovely start to the day, I keep it simple though, that's what my mum likes. I give her a menu of what to choose from and then I get the right 'ingredients' and cook it for her.<br />
As I mentioned earlier I like to bake my mum her fave treat, try baking something for your mum even if baking is not your strong point it's the thought that counts, <i>right?!</i> Plus it's a perfect idea if you've left things until the last minute, quickly whip something up in the kitchen!<br />
<br />
Right, onto gifts now, I have made a little gift guide of a selection of gift ideas ranging from candles and homeware to jewellery. Have a little look below at the treats I picked out.<br />

<br />
Hello my lovelies, how was your weekend? It's starting to feel more like Spring and Easter will soon be here! *claps hands excitedly*<br />
<div>
I have a March Wishlist of all the beauty items that I <i>need</i> (want), although I don't think I'll be making all these purchases this month as I will have no money left...</div>
<div>
I love making lists I am always writing things down from what I need to do to wishlists of what I want, it just gets it all off my mind rather than having all the thoughts swirling around... Anyway, lets get on with the blog post. </div>
<div>
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I am a true Clinique Foundation fan and I am finding it hard to tear myself away from the foundation that I buy from there. But since buying two bottles that I haven't been happy with the application of as it's been a bit on the patchy side due to dry skin, I feel like my skin needs a change and I've heard quite a few good things about the Estee Lauder Foundation.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
. . .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Benefit Roller Lash</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I've had one of these before and I LOVED it, I didn't need to curl my lashes with this mascara. The reason that I haven't had another one is because it is quite expensive, but maybe I'll treat myself. This is definitely one of the best mascaras out there.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
. . . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Barry M Lip Kit</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I have seen these circulating around the blogging world, the shades</span><span style="text-align: left;"> look gorgeous and I am desperate to try one so I will have to get my hands on one or two.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
. . .</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><b><u>Benefit Blusher</u></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I desperately need some new blushers, but I am a bit unsure of which ones to get or which brands are good, which colours - there are so many! I have wanted to try a Benefit Blusher for a while, but if you have any recommendations then please help a girl out!</span><br />
<span style="text-align: left;">. . .</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have only used a sample of this that I got with something I bought, I tried it, I loved it. My eyeshadow lasted so well and I found that it applied better as well, like the colour payoff was 10 times better. So now it is time to buy a full size one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
. . .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Urban Decay Naked Concealer</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really need to try a concealer with a thicker consistency that does a bit more than just cover up slight redness or brightens areas. I have seen a few Youtubers use this and say how good it is for those pesky blemishes (and I get plenty of those), so maybe this would help.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
. . .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Urban Decay Naked Palette</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another Urban Decay product, can you tell that I like this brand?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have the Naked 3 palette and it is such a beautiful palette, the packaging is so pretty and the pigment is great. So I really want to get another one, I just need to decide which one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
It's already the end of February and we are into March, this month has gone by so quick I feel like I haven't had time to think about favourites. I have never done a monthly favourites, so I thought I'd start now and sit down, take a minute and collate some things together that I have been loving in the month of February.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<div>
I haven't got too many favourites and I have even fewer beauty favourites, I find this period of Winter difficult to start using new products, so it's a right mixture of things. I'm just kind of hibernating until the weather slightly improves. Does anyone else do that?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHhZ04YDI5XjfnQXCXJRbS0Fs3iiBhd0PoZYm-SjZaUxqIAeiPqS4FlcdGKGbD6v6S4qxhKYc9V57y4EENgMmEH77N-MfmVv1KO9ja1TyUCqSmcszOiWKSNPhwSgWVundNkqhS6bZhRPQ/s1600/CollectionLipButter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHhZ04YDI5XjfnQXCXJRbS0Fs3iiBhd0PoZYm-SjZaUxqIAeiPqS4FlcdGKGbD6v6S4qxhKYc9V57y4EENgMmEH77N-MfmVv1KO9ja1TyUCqSmcszOiWKSNPhwSgWVundNkqhS6bZhRPQ/s320/CollectionLipButter.jpg" width="320" /></a>First things first my beauty favourites, I have been quite liking the Collection Moisturising Lip Balm in the shade Cappuccino. When I read the name I thought it would be a rich, warm nudey brown shade but when I applied it it made my lips lighter than I thought, which at first I was a bit disappointed about because I thought it would be darker but now I'm glad that it's a wash of colour, it just tints my lips slightly and it is quite glossy and moisturising however like most lip products it can dry the lips slightly. I've been wearing it almost every time I go out in February so it made it into my faves.<br />
<br />

Normally my skin is pretty oily and I usually try and use products that would balance my skin out because I am always breaking out and the foundation I use is very drying as it is for blemish prone skin. But it is winter and I noticed that my foundation was going on patchy and collecting on the dry areas of my face, so I went to the Clinique counter to ask for some advice and the girl said that my skin looked a bit dry and gave me a pot of the moisture surge which to be honest scared me a bit haha, I'm so used to having oily skin (well I though I did). I used it when I had taken all my makeup off (obviously) and I felt like I had given my skin a drink, it felt SO good and when I woke up my skin felt really soft. I don't use it every day, just when I feel like my skin needs that extra bit of moisture.<br />
<br />
Beauty favourites done! Short but sweet, I know. I have a few other favourites that aren't beauty related but this isn't just a beauty blog, it's a little bit of everything.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There have been a couple of TV shows that I have been loving over February, the first one being 'Celebs Go Dating' Basically celebrities sign up to a dating agency and the dating agents find dates with "normal" people for the celebs to go on. It's on Monday-Friday at 10pm and I have been loving it.<br />
<br />
The second TV show is 'Release The Hounds' and this series has been a celebrity series. It's where 3 celebs go into the woods together and have to do a series of challenges to get a key. One by one they leave the woods and have to run a certain distance from the hounds and get to the ladder before the hounds catch them, if they get to the ladder they get the money for their chosen charity they are playing for. This week was my favourite episode as it was Alfie Deyes, Joe Sugg, and Marcus Butler, they all did so well, but if you wanna know exactly what happened then you've gotta go watch it!</div>

<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
Food! I love food haha, and you need a sweet treat to eat whilst you watch these TV shows. I have been having Maryland Cookie Bites, they're new, I saw them in Tesco and I had to get a bag (I love Maryland biscuits 😂) they're chocolate covered biscuits and they are my little sweet treat when I want one ;). (I don't have a picture because I'll be honest, I've eaten them all!)</div>

Lastly, I've got a couple of music favourites, I have been a bit stuck with music so far this year, there hasn't been much that I like being released. But I recently discovered Jeremih and his song Impatient is so good, it's a bit different to what I usually listen to but I really like it. Then of course as everyone knows Mr Ed Sheeran has just released his album and it's bloody amazing! (But it's more a March fav, but his singles came out February so it counts) Also actually I just remembered I am quite a fan of The Weeknd too and have been listening to some of his songs over the month!<br />

Right, I know that the 'New Year's Resolutions' post is a distant memory for probably everyone as they have all posted, read and commented a moved on. I, however, haven't done too well with my blog so far this year... But! That is going to change, I have had these resolutions written down since the beginning of January post and it is now the end of February, think I may need to work on my reliability skills. I have been attempting some of my New Year's resolutions, and if you'll accept I'd like to still share them with you even though it is about 2 months late, so if you do, stick around and carry on reading!<br />

I became more toned and I definitely felt a bit more confident in myself with what I could wear; I mean I wore a dress without tights out in public which would <b>NOT</b> have happened if hadn't of worked hard.<br />
Keeping fit can really give you a positive boost mentally, it's something that is so easy to start. So give it a go even if it's just going for a walk or going on YouTube to follow a workout, it can be so simple! Lucy Wyndham-Read does some great workouts that work so well for me. I'll leave a link to her YouTube channel and her website at the bottom/ just here and go check her out!<br />

It was going well for about half the year, eating more vegetables and fruit and cutting out those Cadburys Mini Rolls, but then it went a bit downhill haha!<br />
In October I got Laryngitis for about six weeks, four of which I had no voice! (It was so hard for me not to talk) I bruised my ribs and I couldn't face cold drinks as they made my throat worse and I didn't want to eat much. So this year I am going to get back into healthy eating and having plenty of water throughout the day.<br />

<b><u> Do Something I Love:</u></b> This is something that everyone should do, find something that you love and enjoy and stick at it. For me, I love singing and acting or something in media ;), so I want to take some classes or do a course. These are such passions of mine and I want to take that passion and accomplish something. Basically, I need to get my sh*t together and sort my life out haha - come on Soph! :P<br />
<br />

<b><u><b><u><br /></u></b></u></b>
<b><u><b><u><br /></u></b></u></b>
<b><u> Be More Organised:</u></b> Oh my goodness! This is one that I definitely need to work on. I start to think that maybe I am more organised then Christmas comes and BOOM! I realise just how unorganised I am, running around like a headless chicken trying to get everything sorted for Christmas, keeping on top of my blog and other general things. I get a bit overwhelmed, so it's time to get more organised!<br />
<br />
<b><u> Blog More:</u></b> When I write a blog post I put everything into it, I make so much effort and can spend ages writing one blog post and I am quite hard on myself because I never feel like they are good enough to publish, which is why my posting is a little all over the place. I'm going to work out a schedule where I can post every week.<br />

This is my High Street Christmas Gift Guide, for those of you who are looking to buy the perfect gift for that friend or family member that LOVES makeup. There are so many great presents on the high street this year I found it really difficult to pick out a select amount for this gift guide, there so many more gifts out there if you just go into Boots or Superdrug you'll be able to pick up some amazing deals! This is just to give you an idea and show you some of my favourite picks.<br>
<br>
I also did a 'High-end' Beauty Gift Guide, if you haven't already go and have a read, here is the link:<br>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I've picked these gifts out as the stocking fillers as they were the smallest gifts, but you could put any of the gifts from this post in a stocking or round the tree, it is entirely up to you. I just like to keep things organised haha! </span></div>
