TUTORIAL: Valentines Day Make Up

Hi ladies!

With Valentine's Day in just a few days, I thought a make up tutorial would be useful to some of you and it's one of my favourite kind of posts to do. 

I didn't want to go down the usual  route of a smokey eye with a red lip, I wanted to do something a little different. I created this really girly, glitzy but subtle look and I just love how it turned out. I have to be honest when I started I had no idea what was I doing, I didn't have a particular look in mind I just sort of made it up as I went along. I hope you like it too, if you want to know how I created this look, then keep reading.

A Week Away From Make Up.

Hey guys!

Over the past week I have been quite poorly with a horrible kidney infection, which has meant that I have spent a week at home, in my pyjamas and not going outside the house at all - apart from a trip to the doctors. Thankfully it has gone now and I am much better, so back to reality.

But spending a week at home, has meant that I haven't put a single bit of make up on, so as the title says I have had a week off the make up. It's very rare that I go that long without putting any make up on at all, it's usually just a couple of days if I am spending a weekend at home.

Not using make up for a week definitely has had it's benefits on my skin, amongst doing other things, I have noticed a visible difference in my skin due to the things that I did throughout the week - the fact that my skin is in better condition was all a bit of a happy accident.

What I Got For Christmas 2014

Hi everyone!

I have probably already said this - or something along the same lines - but I can't quite get my head around the fact that Christmas has gone, it's over! There is such a build up to the one day and it's over before you know it. I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and you got some lovely gifts.

I have been really enjoying reading other people's 'what I got for Christmas' posts, mainly because I am a super nosy person. They seem quite popular, so I thought that I would join in too.

First of all I just want to mention that this post is not intended to be me bragging or anything like that, I am very grateful for what my friends and family have given me, this post is just for all you nosey parkers like me!

November Favourites.

I can't quite get my head around the fact that it is December already and Christmas is just around the corner. This is bitter sweet for me, I am super excited for Christmas and I am feeling rather festive, but it's less than a month away and I haven't even started buying gifts for anyone yet - whoopsie!

Anyways, enough of the festivities, let's get into the purpose of this post - my November favourites.
