<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kLXlF0efuEk/VnrEdB695GI/AAAAAAAAAqs/t0eXWzSpBaA/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="478" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kLXlF0efuEk/VnrEdB695GI/AAAAAAAAAqs/t0eXWzSpBaA/s640/1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ive never been one for bold lips, I own many lipsticks, but always shy out and opt for nudes. I went as a vampire for Halloween and was <i>in love</i> with my lips. So I decided to recreate a look which would make the lipstick more wearable without all of the fake blood! I think this colour/style makeup suits all different skin colours, from the palest (me) to people with darker skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
I havent included any of the products I used on my face because I'm just wearing pretty standard makeup. I do think a heavily contoured look is needed to make the lips more dramatic, but obviously its personal preference.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jjiEttxZqHs/VnrEk2ktiAI/AAAAAAAAAq4/HpReBaqXZRY/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jjiEttxZqHs/VnrEk2ktiAI/AAAAAAAAAq4/HpReBaqXZRY/s640/2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As I mentioned earlier the lipstick was originally for Halloween so I didnt want to splash out. The colours I opted for were <b>Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick - 128 Starry-Eyed</b> and <b>Barry M Lipliner - 7</b>. The Rimmel Lipstick is actually really good and moisturising. By the end of my meal it was all around my face, but I don't know if that can really be helped! The Barry M Lipliner is okay. It lines my lips and stays on well but I find it harder than other lipliners to use. Its not as creamy as MAC Lipliners meaning you have to have a <i>very</i> steady hand when applying it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Hwm-yQY6-nA/VnrOa7X0vwI/AAAAAAAAArM/cES4qtz-qGg/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Hwm-yQY6-nA/VnrOa7X0vwI/AAAAAAAAArM/cES4qtz-qGg/s640/4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These are the eyeshadows used to create this look. I applied <b>Makeup Geek - Twilight</b> to the main part of my eyelid. I then used <b>MAC - Kid</b> to create a shadow through my eyelid crease. Kid is slightly darker than my natural skin colour so creates a really natural looking crease. I dont have very deep eyelids so I use Kid in almost every makeup look I create. I then applied <b>Makeup Geek - Bitten</b> to the outer corners of my eyes and blended it out. I didnt want the look to be too red/purple so I applied <b>Mac - Mystery</b> which is a dark brown to the very corner of my eyelid whilst blending it in to Bitten. Mystery is the perfect dark brown, its almost black whilst still not being black. So you can create a more natural look with Mystery than black would. I then applied the white shimmer colour from the <b>MAC Rihanna </b>palette to the inner corners of my eye and water line. (<i>If youre wondering why it looks so wonky/strange, its because I tried to remove it from the original palette it was glued into. I did get it out and it still works fine.. Jut looks a bit odd! I don't recommend doing it.</i>) To finish off the look i mixed Mystery and Bitten to create eyeliner for underneath my eye, applied a dramatic winged liquid eyeliner to my top lid and added false lashes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All in all this look is quite easy to create. My mum always says you shouldn't mix a dark lip with dramatic makeup - its one or the other. But I think I've managed to find a way to do both and make it work well. If you want me to go into depth with my face makeup or a new look then let me know! I have plenty of makeup waiting for me from Santa so be expecting some new posts soon!!</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Eyebrows are probably one of the first things people notice about me. I don't know if its because I'm from Liverpool and 'scousebrows' are embedded into my DNA, but I can't leave the house without my 'eyebrows on'. I always get random people complementing them so thought it's maybe time to share my secret, ha!</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I came across Anastasia Beverly Hills after seeing their Instagram and falling in love. All of the celebrity's use it and have perfect brows, so I <i>had</i> to try it. Ive previously tried eyebrow pencils and eyeshadow which were okay, but the dipbrow pomade looked new and exciting. As it is an American brand I had to search for online stockists and found that Beauty Bay sold it. This meant that unfortunately I couldn't try out different colours so just opted for the medium brown colour. </div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I bought this in march and use it everyday and there is still this much left!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">As soon as it arrived I fell in love!! At first it took me about 20 minutes to perfect my eyebrows, but after about a month a could do them within minutes. They really have transformed my eyebrows so much. If you like a power brow then you definitely need to try this. I don't think I could go back to a powder or pencil again, they just don't look as <i>sharp</i> as I'd like them to look. Below I've inserted some different pictures of my brows. They don't look exactly the same in each picture, but that's probably a good thing. You can somewhat tailor them to the occasion- I never thought I'd be saying that ha!</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">My eyebrows are naturally quite thick, but the dipbrow pomade allows you to fill in sparse areas and shape them however you want. The product just glides on and is so unbelievably easy to use. If you want them dark and thick you just apply more product to the brush, and if you want them lighter then just apply less. I like to apply lots of the product underneath my brow and at the ends to perfect the shape, and then apply less product at the beginning of my eyebrows so they aren't too harsh. Kinda like on ombre dip dye effect.. The clues in the name of the product!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rqphYcRbfBc/Vnf4JL6l3dI/AAAAAAAAApk/4sTI16WI7g8/s1600/21123.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rqphYcRbfBc/Vnf4JL6l3dI/AAAAAAAAApk/4sTI16WI7g8/s400/21123.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you decide to buy the Dipbrow Pomade then you <i>need</i> to buy the eyebrow brush. The one I bought is the number 12 brush, which has a thin angled brush one end with a spooley brush on the other end. (Is spooley a word?!) You need to have a very thin brush for the product to be effective. You are trying to create hair like lines, so a thick brush wouldn't do the job. The spooley then makes life easier for yourself as you can brush the product through your eyebrows creating that ombre effect, whilst brushing them into place. Although the brush costs just as much as the actual product it is and investment and will last forever as long as you look after it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So yeah, I rate this product a 10/10 and it has truly transformed my eyebrows! Just look at my previous blog posts if you don't believe me!</div>

<br />
What way to return to your blog after a few months than a monthly favourites? I've finished University and I'm slowly starting to get a life schedule together again and have found so many things I want to blog about! Reviews, hauls and just general rants about different things. So I'm finally going to fall in love with blogging again and am aiming for a posts a week.. Fingers crossed!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>So this month there's quite a few skin products, and a few products I love because of the smell. <b>Palmers Cocoa Butter</b> is a mixture of both those things. I feel as though this product is one of those things that have been out for years, and people always seem to have them in their houses, but the bottles always looked a little 'basic'. I was in Asda and wanted a cheap moisturiser, and saw that this was one of the cheapest, yet not too cheap, options. And oh my god it smells amazing. Exactly like chocolate. Normally I like to go for something fresh and flowery, but I'm converted. It makes your skin super soft and it smells like chocolate for hours. If you love chocolate, then you need this in your life!<br />
<br />
One of my new essential handbag items is <b>Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mist in Love Spell</b>. Victoria's Secret is one of those places that always smells amazing, and every time I go in I spend just as long smelling the fragrances, as I do looking for underwear. I bought this in May when the Trafford Centre had a Student Lock In and they had different promotions in different stores. This had to be my favourite one of all of them. The smell is described as Cherry Blossom & Peach (coincidence?) but I think it just smells like sweets! It's so perfect for throwing in your handbag. Sometimes I'm on my to work and realise I've forgotten to put perfume on that day, need a little freshening up or sometimes the surroundings/people smell...! Since buying it I've noticed so many people with different scents of this product in their handbag, I recommend it so much!<br />
<br />
I was recently in Primark buying some socks and discovered that they now sell makeup! I was a little wary of it, but for 80p I thought a nail varnish wouldn't hurt. To my surprise this <b>Primark Nail Varnish</b> is so good! I wanted a nice nude coloured nail varnish that isn't opaque and isn't really expensive, and this nail varnish ticked both these boxes! I can't seem to find the exact colour of this nail varnish, but they had <i>so</i> many colours that I cant wait to go back and stock up!<br />
<br />
My skin care routine isn't the best. I tend to just use a face wipe most nights, which I know isn't the best, but a proper skin care routine takes so much effort. I keep seeing the <b>Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water</b> everywhere and decided to finally buy it. You just apply it to a little cotton pad and it takes your makeup straight off. I tend to wear quite a lot of makeup on a day to day basis, so to make sure its actually off I like to follow with <b>Garnier Softening Cleansing Lotion</b>. It is pretty much the exact same thing, apart from the fact its more of a moisturiser. The only reason I use both is because I find the Micellar Cleansing water is easier to take off eyemakeup, whilst the Cleansing Lotion makes your skin feel nice and soft right before bed. I feel like these products have dramatically improved my skin care routine so much, as it takes 5 minutes at most to use, and makes your skin soft, clean and fresh.<br />
<br />
The last product in my monthly favourites is <b>Marc Jacobs Honey Perfume</b>. Firstly how cute is the bottle?! Its got polka dots, stripes bees and pearls! Marc Jacobs always go all out on their perfume bottle designs. It has quite a sweet summer smell to it, definitely a day perfume. I feel like the smell is quite distinct, I couldn't compare it to many other perfumes- in a good way! The only thing I'm a little upset about is that it's now turning into Autumn so I wont be able to use this perfume as much anymore.. :-(<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading and I hope I haven't bored you too much! I've got new blog posts lined up and ready to go so make sure you follow my social media links so you can be updated as to when they go up!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recently I went into Superdrug and did quite a bit of damage to bank account. Like most trips to Superdrug/Boots, I only went in for one item and ended up coming out with a lot more. I think it might be impossible to go beauty product shopping without over spending!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
I haven't had the best luck with money recently so decided instead of going into Selfridges and spending way too much money, I thought I would see whats in Superdrug. Unlike Selfridges were you are constantly harassed by sales women, Superdrug is a bit of a free for all. You find yourself looking at so many things you don't need! I'm a little wary of 'drugstore brands', but I feel like I can trust Rimmel, Maybeline and L'oreal.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Maybelline Baby Lips Electro - Berry Bomb </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am in <i>love</i> with my Baby Lips in Cherry Me, so when I saw the new Electro range, I knew I had to buy one. If you haven't tried Baby Lips yet then you need to! They make your lips <i>so</i> soft and Berry Bomb gives you an ever so slight purple tint to your lips. I always reach for Baby Lips when I want a bit of colour on my lips without it being too bold.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick - 016</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I kind of picked this up by accident as I thought it was slightly different. After getting home and trying it on I actually quite like it. It is a dark/bright pink (almost red) and very pigmented. I probably wouldn't wear it because it's so bright, but if you like that colour then definitely buy it!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick - 180</b><br />
This shade was a lot more purple than I originally thought. It is moisturising like the name suggests, but I cant say that I've actually ever been tempted to wear it.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>L'oreal Color Riche - J Lo's Nude</b><br />
This colour is as the name states - nude. There isn't much to the lipstick so I was quite dissapointed. I mean it gives a slight tint and moisturising look to your lips, but many products do a better job.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>L'oreal Color Riche - 233</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is quite a sheer colour, so when I first swatched I was very dissapointed. It's a nude colour with shimmers of gold (and smells really nice). After trying it on I decided I actually really like it! Its subtle enough to wear everyday, whilst still giving you that polished look. I really like this product, and its the lipstick I have ended up using most out off all the lipsticks I bought that day.</div>

</tbody></table>
<b>L'Oreal Contour Parfait Lip Liner - 657 Rosewood</b><br />
This lip liner is amazing! I recently bought and lost <u>MAC Soar Lip Liner</u> (don't take expensive makeup on nights out), and wanted to buy a cheaper alternative. After researching it, I found out that Rosewood was a dupe for the colour, and they aren't wrong! This is by far my go to lip liner and wear it all the time. It's very Kylie Jenner (she uses MAC Soar) and you can wear almost any nude lipstick over the top of it. It stays on for ages, I couldn't recommend this enough!<br />
<br />
<b>Rimmel Lasting Finish 1000 Kisses Lip Liner - Indian Pink</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I bought this colour by accident as it went nicely with <span style="text-align: justify;">Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick - 016 (see above). It doesn't go on as easy as the L'Oreal lip liner, so requires a little more effort, but once its on it looks nice. If you're looking for a cheap lip liner then I would recommend this. </span></div>

<b>Maybelline Matte Maker Powder - 10 Classic Ivory</b><br />
So being a student, theres a few makeup items I don't mind buying cheaper versions of, and powder is one of them. I find that my foundation tends to stay on all day anyway, so I just use powder to make my foundation more matte. I wasn't really sure which shade I would be as there was a couple to choose from, so ended up staying safe and buying the lightest shade. I really like this powder, I can't really tell the difference between this and a MAC powder. I could be wrong, but I feel like it's not massively pigmented, so the shade you choose doesn't make a massive difference. It has enough pigment to even out your skin tone a little, without looking cakey. It gives your makeup a very flawless and finished look.<br />

<b>Rimmel Lash Accelerator Serum</b><br />
So this mascara was free when I bought so many products with Rimmel. I think it was 3 for 2 so I felt like mascara is something you always need. My all time favourite mascara is Benefit They're Real, as I prefer a plastic wand/brush, so this is very similar to it. I actually really like this product, and have been using it now that I've finished my Benefit mascara. It really separates your eyelashes without making them look spidery. It also doesn't smudge/run down your face like I find a lot of cheap mascaras do, which is a big plus for me!<br />

<b>Tanya Burr Nail Varnish - Peaches & Cream</b><br />
I really do love Tanya Burr's nail varnish! She has created the prettiest colours that stay on for ages without chipping. I find that they are also really easy and smooth to apply, and don't dry out like a lot of cheaper nail varnishes. This colour is so nice! Its a peachy nude colour, perfect when you don't want to add much colour to your nails. I'm not supposed to wear nail varnish for work, but I hate having nothing on my nails, so find this colour is the perfect nude colour. I have never been complimented so much for my nail varnish than when I wear this shade!<br />
<br />
Sorry I do blab on a bit when reviewing things! I just like to give an honest opinion and write about what I'd want to read about products. So let me know whether you agree/disagree with anything I have wrote about.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So as you might be able to tell,
I haven’t posted in a few months. The main reason for this is simply being
FINAL YEAR OF UNI. I literally can’t believe how fast university has flown by,
it upsets me if I think about it for too long! Last summer when I created this
blog, I was absolutely obsessed with writing it and planning new blog posts.
Slowly, this blog became my last priority between trying to balance university,
work and a blog, whilst still having a social life. The amount of times I have
gone to write my first welcome back post, but decided to wait a week is unreal.
I still buy new things and think ‘ooh, I can add this to my monthly
favourites!’ but never get round to doing it. But tonight (when I wrote this) I
watched a programme called Plus Size Wars, and it really inspired me to get
back into blogging.</div>
<a name='more'></a><o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you don’t know me personally,
then you probably don’t know that I’m considered plus-
size/fat/curvy/chunky/whatever you want to call it. I have never really blogged
about it before, as to be honest, I’ve never really thought that many people
would be interested in what I was wearing as I’m not a size 8. But watching the
programme really made me realise that there is quite a large audience of people
interested, and many people are going <i>places</i>
because of it!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
There is so little places for
younger plus sized women to shop, as many shops sell matronly, unflattering
styles. Fortunately I can still shop in places such as Topshop as their size
range goes up to a size 16, but most of their styles wouldn’t suit my size. I
don’t want to wear crop tops, yet I don’t want to wear unflattering ‘old
people’ dresses. Slowly retailers are bringing out plus-sized ranges, mainly
online retailers, but they still offer stylish plus-sized garments. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Plus-sized retailers such as
Evans are starting to see the potential in a new younger target market, and
have targeted three young fashion bloggers to feature in their new campaign. I
think this is a really clever move by Evans, as there is a previous stigma
attached to their brand. Many people, including me, previously saw it as an
older peoples shop, with no fashionable items. Through using plus-sized fashion
bloggers, they are able to promote their more fashionable ranges to a new
target audience. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Many people have criticized the
programme and plus-sized models as promoting obesity and being unhealthy.
Although I understand what they’re saying to some extent, I don’t think the programme
is actually inspiring people to put on weight. I think the programme is trying
to remove the idea that just because you’re fat, doesn’t mean you have to be ugly
and unfashionable. As the programme mentioned at the start, over 60% of the UK
are considered obese, so why is still so hard to find fashionable places to
shop? Just because you’re fat/plus-sized doesn’t mean you should have to be
shamed into wearing oversized t-shirts and hiding in corners. I think these
bloggers and models give plus-sized girls the confidence to love fashion no
matter what size they are.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
For as long as I have remembered
I’ve always been considered as fat, so I’m used to it. I’ve always loved
fashion and over the years have found ways to dress flatteringly for my size.
I’ve decided I’m going to start blogging more about clothing I’ve bought, my
fashion etc. as I’d like to help anyone out there who maybe struggles to find
plus-sized clothing. I’m still going to write about my usual beauty and
lifestyle posts, but start to add some more personal fashion posts to my blog.
Although I’m pretty confident in myself, I think as a plus-sized gal I should
maybe help the #PlusSizeWars in every way that I can!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today I bought my Halloween outfit for this year! I'm on a pretty tight budget recently, so bought the cheapest thing I could find. For the past two years I have been a cat and a leopard.. Both original and scary.. So this year I thought I would actually go as something somewhat scary. It's still not particularly scary, but it's one of the things I'm scared of most in life..</div>
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway I thought I'd show you a few pictures from the last two years from Halloween. For the first year of uni I decided to go as a cat. It was a very last minute decision and that way I didn't have to buy an outfit. I didn't put much effort in as you can tell by the pictures.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the second year of uni I went as a leopard. I debated about going as something dead for ages and in the end opted to go as a leopard. I put a little more effort into my outfit this year by putting facepaint on my face and wearing black contacts. I loved those contacts I didn't want to take them out! </div>

Autumn is officially here and I am so happy! For me autumn
is by far the best season. As a child I feel like I overlooked autumn as it was
the awkward season in-between my summer holiday and Christmas. Now it’s the great
season in between being sweaty and being freezing. I am one of those people who is always hot,
so when its summer it means being pretty sweaty. I am also not a massive fan of summer clothes. I
don’t mind winter weather so much, but I do prefer the weather above 0 degrees.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
On October 1<sup>st</sup> I decided it was time to wear my
first jumper of the year, even though autumn apparently officially started on September
22<sup>nd</sup>. The weathers getting colder and the leaves are starting to
turn brown and fall from the trees. Don’t ask why, but I just love it! It feels
so cosy. Everything from the oversized jackets and scarfs, to turning yourself
into a taco in bed excites me a lot. I’d like to imagine that I go on long
walks in the park wearing my new boots, drinking a winter themed coffee, but let’s
be honest I don’t. I think as we get older, Autumn is probably appealing to
most of us. I really want to buy some seasonal scented candles and read one
of the many books I haven’t got around to yet. If you haven’t guessed already,
I love my bed, so the idea of being snuggly and not have to stick my leg out of
the bed is very appealing. Although University lectures have started again, the
workload isn’t too heavy as I don’t have exams till next Spring/Summer. This
means I have lots of time to dream about things I will do/ actually do them. I
told my housemate today that I plan on being super seasonal this year. Seasonal
as in how Americans say it, Halloween, Bon Fire Night, Christmas etc. I was
told I am not allowed to celebrate Thanksgiving though. Sob. Look forward to
blog posts on my Halloween decorated room... Maybe. I thought I’d compile a
little list of the things I’m most excited about.<o:p></o:p></div>

Some of them are a little more serious than others but I got
a little carried away. I could probably go on forever with the things that I am
excited about, but don’t want to bore everyone too much! September was quite a
busy time for a number of different reasons. I will be spending a lot more time
perfecting my own blog and reading other blogs. I didn’t completely forget
about my blog, I just had bloggers block and was super busy. I have scheduled
so many posts which will be coming at least every 3 days if not sooner. Make
sure you follow me on Blog Lovin and Twitter!</div>

As I have mentioned a few times on other blog posts, September was quite a busy month for me. I moved back to Uni and into a new house, was ill numerous times and went out quite a bit. I wasn't planning on doing one of these month in pictures posts as I don't use Instagram a lot, and that's what other bloggers use to do this type of post. But after waiting for what feels like forever, I finally got a new phone. The iPhone 6! So all of these photos are from my iPhone which means they are only from half a month (19th September).<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Next months 'Month in Pictures' will have a lot more pictures on as they will be an actual full month. Unless you have me on my personal Twitter or Facebook, you won't have seen any of these pictures before. I am going to start using Instagram more now that I have an iPhone again so be sure to follow me on there!<br />

First selfie with my new iPhone 6. I lost my iPhone 5 on the bus almost a year ago. It literally just slipped out of my pocket and have had a cheap Nokia Lumia since then. I was so happy to have an iPhone again!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I fell of the kerb. Okay, this is a long story but basically the kerb outside my house has quite a big drop and I literally fell off it. In the middle of the day. It was hilarious. It also hurt, a lot. I effed up my ankles for the next few days and could barely go anywhere. They still hurt now.</div>

Today I was having a lazy Sunday with two of my housemates Lucy and Dill, and we decided to finally make the Barbie cupcakes which have been sat in the cupboard for ages. I thought I'd take a few pictures to help you make your own Barbie cupcakes. Before you read this, this is a bit of a joke post.. Don't take it too seriously!</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9CbZS3p42sg/VDGUgCL6tFI/AAAAAAAAAio/4q3DoEq0DCU/s1600/23.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9CbZS3p42sg/VDGUgCL6tFI/AAAAAAAAAio/4q3DoEq0DCU/s1600/23.jpg" height="444" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Firstly, mix the cake powder with an egg and water until you get a runny consistency. As you can tell, we didn't have a mixing bowl or a whisk so we used a large pan and fork. It did the job fine though!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VG3CpdDo0sg/VDGRgl8pvFI/AAAAAAAAAiE/IDi4xMO7ucg/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VG3CpdDo0sg/VDGRgl8pvFI/AAAAAAAAAiE/IDi4xMO7ucg/s1600/4.jpg" height="214" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Spoon all the mixture into the cases. There's not really enough mixture for all 12 cases, so just be a little careful about how much mixture you put in. Then pop them into the oven for 12 minutes. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PM7RpHUHpgE/VDGRgoDsssI/AAAAAAAAAiA/iTDQH3lfmgc/s1600/6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PM7RpHUHpgE/VDGRgoDsssI/AAAAAAAAAiA/iTDQH3lfmgc/s1600/6.jpg" height="218" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you're a student and don't want to much to clean up, rinse out the pan with water then empty the icing powder into it. Add a tablespoon of butter and water and mix with a spoon. For some reason the icing turns yellow.. I don't know why its not Barbie pink?! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0XlhZ4pYWqw/VDGRiLkWmII/AAAAAAAAAiU/nyB-pkZVD2I/s1600/7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-0XlhZ4pYWqw/VDGRiLkWmII/AAAAAAAAAiU/nyB-pkZVD2I/s1600/7.jpg" height="216" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cool the cupcakes on a wire rack when you take them out of the oven. Once they're cool, spoon the icing on. Like the cake mix, there isn't enough icing for 12 cupcakes. I made the mistake of putting loads of icing on the first cupcakes and then barely any on the other cakes. Sprinkle the hearts on when you're finished.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rxuo0ZQX4vE/VDGRjLkUubI/AAAAAAAAAic/hRgyFF-eRzo/s1600/8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rxuo0ZQX4vE/VDGRjLkUubI/AAAAAAAAAic/hRgyFF-eRzo/s1600/8.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you can tell, the cakes don't look that great when they're finished. They didn't really taste to great either to be honest. They weren't very 'Dollicious' (their words not mine). I'd recommend buying different cakes actually! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

This is a bit of a random post but I've had a bit of bloggers block recently. I've scheduled a bunch of posts for the next couple of weeks, so make sure you follow me on Blog Lovin and Twitter so you know when they're uploaded!</div>

<br />
Every season, Chanel find a way to make their collection unique and somewhat controversial compared to other catwalk shows, and SS 15 definitely did not disappoint. <br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Karl Lagerfeld created an entire Parisian District backdrop, including puddles and zebra crossings, and held a feminist march. Models held up various signs whilst some of them shouted through Chanel quilted megaphones.<br />
<br />
Feminism has been a very hot topic recently. Many big female figures including Beyonce and Emma Watson, have spoken publicly about their views on feminism. Even though I don't think I've ever experienced any female discrimination personally, I would definitely consider myself to be somewhat of a feminist. In the UK, females are seen as equals to males, but I know in some countries they definitely aren't. Chanels feminism march down the catwalk was a bold move but it has been well perceived. Fashion expresses your personality and mood, so why not let it express your views.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SofLOFkBD9A/VCxPA_5-xCI/AAAAAAAAAhg/5YQDDVGMKrY/s1600/Chanel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SofLOFkBD9A/VCxPA_5-xCI/AAAAAAAAAhg/5YQDDVGMKrY/s1600/Chanel.jpg" height="392" width="640" /></a></div>
There was in total 86 looks, almost double the amount of looks created by any other designer this season. The collection is very varied in terms of prints and styles, and there doesn't seem to be an obvious theme throughout the entire collection. There is some looks which I love, whilst some looks I don't like so much. With 86 different looks, its very hard to please everyone. One thing is for sure though, Chanel definitely sent out a message!<br />

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WK20zjY8CZM/VCODRS8yVEI/AAAAAAAAAhA/M2BB8UBKEYw/s1600/i1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WK20zjY8CZM/VCODRS8yVEI/AAAAAAAAAhA/M2BB8UBKEYw/s1600/i1.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have been lusting after Nars Sheer Glow Foundation for so long, as its been raved about by pretty much every beauty blogger. If you have read my <span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.peachblossomx.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/teenblogseries-post-2-foundation-and.html"><span style="color: black;"><i>previous blog post</i></span></a> about what foundation I normally use, then you will know I find it quite hard to find foundation which suits my skin type. I find that although MAC Pro Longwear foundation is great for my skin as it gives me a long lasting full coverage, it feels a little thick on my skin. </span></div>
<span style="color: black;"><a name='more'></a></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Over the Summer I have been choosing to wear a BB Cream as it doesn't feel so heavy, but now I want a foundation which still has a good coverage whilst not so heavy. Every time I have been into Selfridges, I've picked up a few foundation samples so that I can try them on properly before spending money on them. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">I got samples for both Nars Sheer Glow and Nars Sheer Matte foundation. Even though I knew Sheer Matte was designed for oily skin and I have very dry skin, I decided to still try it. Yup, it definitely made my skin even drier! The sample bottles they give out are 4ml, so unlike most samples, you can use it quite a few times before it runs out. This was perfect for me as I found I had a little love hate relationship going on with the Sheer Glow foundation. Some days it would make my skin look super healthy and 'glowing', whilst if I was having a particularly dry skin day, it would stick to the dry bits. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: black;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sshXnou7yVc/VCODRXEkF5I/AAAAAAAAAg4/dKIHBaEiCso/s1600/i2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sshXnou7yVc/VCODRXEkF5I/AAAAAAAAAg4/dKIHBaEiCso/s1600/i2.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Recently I went to the doctors about my skin and they gave me a little gel which I was very skeptical of. I didn't think it would do anything but it actually made my skin so much better! I very rarely have dry skin days and I don't have to religiously moisturise everyday now! So after using the Sheer Glow sample again once my skin was better, I knew I had to buy it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Nars Sheer Glow feels very light and silky on your face, making you look like you aren't wearing any makeup. It has a build able coverage and is even supposed to improve your skin type if you use it everyday! I have now decided that this is my day time foundation, and my MAC Pro Longwear foundation will be my night out foundation. My only negative about this foundation is that I now need to buy a pump for it. This foundation is quite pricey at £31.00, so I decided to wait a little while and get a pump when its not so full and easy to get out.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--8RQnI9qpns/VCODRl0NiqI/AAAAAAAAAg8/z37v-c6prtQ/s1600/i3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--8RQnI9qpns/VCODRl0NiqI/AAAAAAAAAg8/z37v-c6prtQ/s1600/i3.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
When I bought the foundation, it was during the Student Lock In at the Trafford Centre. If you don't know what that is, then its basically just a student event were there is big student discounts in most shops for that night. Although I kind of knew Selfridges wouldnt have any discounts on their makeup brands, I was shocked to find out that on Nars counter, if you spent over £30 you got a free eyeliner. The eyeliner I received was Nars Larger Than Life Long-wear Eyeliner in Via Veneto (black).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Even thought it's only sample sized, I was still made up as I tend to use black eyeshadow as my lower lid eyeliner. I find it annoying having to sharpen pencils and sometimes they can be hard to put on. This eyeliner is really good though! It is quite creamy meaning its really easy to apply, and it has a twist up bottom so there's no sharpening involved! I will probably purchase the full size once I've used it all.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I am always super impressed by how big Nars samples are as they give you a chance to actually use the product a few times before you purchase the full size. I am excited to try out more of Nars products. I would love to hear what you think of either of these products in the comments section! </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This Summer I decided it was time to make a blog. I've started so many over the past few years which I haven't taken seriously enough, so have never had more than a few blog posts on. After finding I had far too much spare time on my hands over the Summer, I created Peach Blossom. I have been blogging properly for just over a month now and I have learnt <i>so </i>much about the 'blogging world' which I didn't know before.</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Planning and Scheduling </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I first created my blog, I thought you could just post whenever you want and it would be fine. Although you can do that, you have to remember that you need to think of an idea, take photos and write the post which can make it easy to forget to even post anything. I have planned blog posts all the way to Novemeber so that I always have something to write about. Obviously there is new and current things to write about, but when I have 'writers block' there will always be something for me to post. I think if I didn't plan and schedule my posts then slowly I would neglect my blog more and more as I would forget about it.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Social Networking</b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For me, I think social networking is crucial for blogs so that you gain new readers and followers. At the moment, only a few friends and family know about this blog as I don't feel 100% happy with it that I'd want all of my friends on Facebook to know about it. I created a new Twitter account especially for Peach Blossom and that's definitely what increases my blogs traffic. As well as Twitter, I find that commenting on other bloggers posts drives traffic to your blog as not only do they see it, but their readers do. I think its very important to connect with other bloggers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Photos</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The one thing I think I struggle most with when it comes to blogging is the photos. I just have a normal compact camera to take my photos, and you can definitely tell the difference between photos taken on that and photos taken on a DSLR camera. I would consider investing in a better camera but I just need to make sure I would use it enough to pay that much money!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I find myself editing most of the photos I take to make it brighter or remove any 'blemishes'. I never realised you would have to edit pictures of nail varnish!! I also don't have a white desk or pretty backdrops which the top bloggers have.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Finding your Niche </b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So far I just say that my blog is Fashion, Beauty and Lifestyle as I just like to write about what I'm interested in/doing at that particular time. But I know that as I go along, I will start to find things I prefer blogging about. So far my fashion posts have been more about celebrity's as I think I would find the whole photoshoot in my garden situation so awkward! Considering I study Fashion at University I thought I would be writing a lot more fashion posts than beauty!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Already I am looking at my previous blog posts and thinking that isn't very good, that could of been better, but I know that in time I will find my niche and they will be amazing! (Maybe not quite amazing but I'd like to think so..)</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Balancing University and Blogging</b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In August I found myself blogging quite a bit and spending loads of time commenting on other peoples blogs, promoting my new posts. But I've just moved into my new Uni house (I haven't started lectures yet), and I am struggling to find time to write new posts! I really want to make sure that I keep up with this blog, so I know that when I have a day off I'm going to have to write a few blog posts and schedule them for a later date. I have put so much time and effort into this blog so far that it would be stupid not to continue with it! What do I have to lose?!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sorry for the massive essay, I sometimes just blabber on and don't even realise what I am writing about. That is probably another point I should make, make sure you read through your post before uploading it! Sometimes I just like to write massive essays and press post without even reading through it. There's nothing worse than realising you have a bunch of grammar mistakes a few weeks after you've posted something..!</div>

<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jcauk83u0h0/VAoZPzNbhEI/AAAAAAAAAgg/yL_Z5TDjv0I/s1600/5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jcauk83u0h0/VAoZPzNbhEI/AAAAAAAAAgg/yL_Z5TDjv0I/s1600/5.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I have just moved into my new University house and I love it! I've come back to Manchester for the week to move in a few bits and do a few shifts in work so I haven't fully moved in yet. I've only moved in things that I know I wont need when I go back home for a few weeks before I officially move in. That's why my wardrobes so bare and there's not much decoration.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The house was fully refurbished before we moved in so we didn't really know what to expect. Let's just say I can't wait to show you the rest of the house, but for now I will just show you my bedroom! I live with 7 other people so to decide the rooms we picked out of a hat. Personally I think I have the best room! <i>(These photos don't do it justice)</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
When we first looked around the rooms I wasn't sure about the open wardrobes as I know that I barely ever hang things up and people would be able to see how much of a mess it is. But after hanging up a few things I prefer it! It adds a bit of colour to the room, plus I think it will make me want to keep it neat instead of throwing them in. There is also an extra shelf above this picture so there is sooo much storage space, which is what my last years house lacked. I can't wait to bring all of my clothes now!</div>

My bed doesn't look so great as I haven't brought all of my pillows yet, but trust me its so comfy! </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We have a TV in all of our rooms! Although I have a TV in my room at home, we lost the remote control (I share a room with my sister), so we don't ever use it. I am loving this little novelty of watching TV whilst I get ready! Also all the suitcases and bags I brought everything in are under the desk until I give them back to my mum and dad.</div>

The only decoration I have in my room so far is these votive Yankee Candles and holders, mini photo frame from my friend Jenny and a letter K. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can't wait to show you my bedroom again when I've moved everything in. My room feels like I need more decoration in it at the moment but I'm not quite sure what to add. I want to add things to the wall but I'm not sure if that will make it look a little messy. Last year I had a magazine wall covering one of the walls so I think I want to more of a minimalist look this year. Let me know in the comments if you have any ideas for me!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a few weeks you will get an updated bedroom tour as well as a house tour. I hope you have enjoyed reading this, I am really nosey and love looking at other peoples houses so sorry if you don't! </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This weeks Teen Blog Series is about my foundation and brow routine. As it's the teen blog series I will try to relate everything back to teens so that this post is very teen friendly. If you want to read more about my everyday makeup then check out <a href="http://peachblossomx.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/kelseys-everyday-makeup.html"><span style="color: black;"><b>this</b></span></a> post.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Foundation</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The foundation I have been using since I was 16 is MAC Pro Longwear Foundation in NW20. Before that I used to use different Rimmel and Maybelline foundations, always in the wrong shades and not right for my skin. My top tip for foundation would be to make sure that not only get a foundation which matches your skin colour, make sure it is right for your skin type! When I got my first job I went into MAC and they tried out a few foundations for me and Pro Longwear was the one they chose.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have very dry skin so most foundations patch up in my skin but MAC Pro Longwear doesn't. It gives a medium coverage which is build able for places where you need more coverage. Before I apply my foundation I use Garnier Moisture Match in Dry to Very Dry which prepares my skin for foundation. I very rarely use primer as it drys out my skin even more, plus I find this foundation stays on pretty much all day anyway. I use Real Techniques Beauty Blender to apply my foundation, I prefer it to brushes as I find it gives a smoother application.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The concealer I have been using at the moment is Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer. I'm waiting to get my student loan so for now this is cheap and does the job! I use a Real Techniques brush (I'm not sure what it's called) to blend in my concealer. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Eyebrows</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm from Liverpool so for us, eyebrows are a big deal, (Scousebrows). Although I have had some dodgey eyebrows in the past, I feel like I'm at a good place with my eyebrows. I think my eyebrows will always be an ongoing battle, if you pluck them too much then they wont be the right shape and if you dont pluck them then you will have a monobrow. I've only ever had them waxed once but it gave me little spots above my eyebrows which made me look like I had acne or something, so I decided not to do it again. From then on I have just tried to keep on top of them by plucking them. If you are wanting to shape your eyebrows then I recommend growing them out and then getting them waxed, (and keep on top of them with tweezers if you don't want to get them waxed again.)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To fill in/shape my eyebrows I use MAC eyeshadow in Brown Down and a Real Techniques angled brush. Firstly I draw a line with the brush at the bottom of the eyebrow which cleans up any hairs which are out of place and makes it look more smooth. Then I fill in the outer corner of the eyebrow until I get to the front, getting lighter as I go so they don't look <i>too</i> drawn on.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you have any questions about my eyebrows or foundation then let me know in the comments! I am also planning on doing a more in detail eyebrow tutorial so let me know whether that's something you would like to see.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yqjHQMnbZyU/VAMuWM8b1II/AAAAAAAAAfk/Wsf5A2GZOA8/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yqjHQMnbZyU/VAMuWM8b1II/AAAAAAAAAfk/Wsf5A2GZOA8/s1600/1.jpg" height="462" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have seen Makeup Revolution raved about on <i>so</i> many blogs, so I thought it was finally time to jump on the band wagon. I will be the first to say that I can be a makeup snob and will always think cheap makeup is really bad. After seeing Makeup Revolutions prices and all of the amazing reviews, I thought it would be stupid not to order a few bits.</div>
<a name='more'></a><i></i><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><i><br /></i></i></div>
<i>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Note- The pictures aren't of the best quality, but having the flash on was the only way for me to show the products true to colour. </i></div>
</i><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Iconic 3 Palette - £4.00</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Dm1JSgkEoD8/VAMtbesI0jI/AAAAAAAAAfU/PoeNYGNKayE/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Dm1JSgkEoD8/VAMtbesI0jI/AAAAAAAAAfU/PoeNYGNKayE/s1600/3.jpg" height="336" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first thing I knew I had to order was an eye shadow palette. They have so many to pick from and they are all so cheap, it was very hard deciding which one to choose! I eventually chose the Iconic 3 palette as I've heard its a dupe of Urban Decays Naked 3 palette. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have to say I'm in love with this palette! The colours are all so pigmented and although I don't have the Naked 3 palette, I can imagine it's just as good! I'm not a massive fan of shimmery eyeshadows, but these shimmer colours are all so pretty I'm sure I will be able to find a way to wear them. I <i>love </i>the 3 matte shades. When I first saw them I just thought they were going to come out brown, which I already have plenty of, but once you apply it to your eyelid they have a pinky/maroon tint to them. I have been looking for colours like them for ages now as they are perfect for the winter with a darker lip. So far I can't say a bad word about this product.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IweQGVLm6nU/VAMsf6pnfyI/AAAAAAAAAe8/OTyj09__gmI/s1600/output_axQN4M.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IweQGVLm6nU/VAMsf6pnfyI/AAAAAAAAAe8/OTyj09__gmI/s1600/output_axQN4M.gif" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made a little gif of the 3 matte eye shadows. I am also wearing Treat lipstick (below)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Treat Lipstick and The One Lipstick - £1.00</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9b1nIx7bPSg/VAMtcymQrNI/AAAAAAAAAfc/R4uxVLG0sHM/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9b1nIx7bPSg/VAMtcymQrNI/AAAAAAAAAfc/R4uxVLG0sHM/s1600/4.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is 30 different lipstick shades to choose from, and for £1.00 it was hard not to buy them all! But I decided I'd try them out before I bought too many in case they aren't very good. Treat is a pinky brown lipstick which is my favourite colour for lips. Its the perfect shade for adding colour to your lips whilst still natural looking. The One is lighter than Treat as it's a nude shade (It's not as pink as in the picture). I have really light skin and I think it might be a little too nude for me, I kinda look as though I have foundation lips if I apply too much. If you have medium-dark skin I would recommend getting a darker lipstick. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These lipsticks are so creamy and moisturising! I am so shocked and even prefer them to some of my MAC lipsticks! I am definitely going to be ordering some more soon and Treat now lives in my handbag. Even my mum wants me to get her Treat for her birthday! I couldn't recommend these lipsticks enough. For £1 you can try out some new shades which you wouldn't normally wear as £1 isn't much at all!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Ultra Blush and Contour Palette - Hot Spice - £6.00</b></span></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PpwYX8ZjJ9s/VAMtT6JYV2I/AAAAAAAAAfE/mrFCPIWiiFw/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PpwYX8ZjJ9s/VAMtT6JYV2I/AAAAAAAAAfE/mrFCPIWiiFw/s1600/2.jpg" height="338" width="640" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Sorry about the bad quality photo!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Blusher isn't normally something I invest in as I have quite pinkish cheeks naturally, so I don't like to add more colour. My favourite Illamasqua blusher has just cracked (and gone all over my makeup bag), so after seeing these blush palettes I decided I needed get one! There are two blush palettes which you can choose from, Hot Spice (above) and Sugar and Spice (Pink shades). I normally go for peachy coloured blusher as it makes me look a little more tan so opted for Hot Spice.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At first I didn't think it was very pigmented, but after swirling my finger in the colours they were <i>very </i>pigmented. Be warned- make sure you tap a bit off the brush before applying! I haven't used all of the colours yet so I can't decided which is my favourite, but so far I don't have any which I hate. There is a mixture of matte, shimmer and highlighter colours. The darker pink highlighter goes perfectly with all of the blushers, I think the lighter highlighter is a little to pink/purple for this palette. I think if you owned both of the palettes, you wouldn't need to buy blusher for a looong time!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am so impressed with Makeup Revolution so far! If you haven't bought anything from them then you need to! The only thing I would say Makeup Revolution need to improve on is to have more matte eyeshadow palettes. They only have one completely matte palette, but the colour range isn't that great. They also need to start selling in more stores so I can buy more of these products without having to pay postage! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you have any more questions about these products which I haven't answered, then please let me know in the comments.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The MTV VMA Awards were held last Sunday in LA. Although I was interested in who won the awards, I was more interested in what everyone wore on the red carpet. For me, I think the VMA Awards is an award show were you can take risks and don't have to be as formal as other award shows. Some of the most memorable/worst red carpet outfits ever are from the VMAs! Below I have chosen some of my favourite trends, and who I believe was the worst dressed.<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Trend 1 | Leather</b></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--vRdiRHQYrY/U_98WnZb3CI/AAAAAAAAAeE/tEvhHgD74oE/s1600/Review.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--vRdiRHQYrY/U_98WnZb3CI/AAAAAAAAAeE/tEvhHgD74oE/s1600/Review.jpg" height="236" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I love all of these leather looks! I think my favourite has to be Lucy Hales outfit, she has managed to make leather look pretty and cute. It looks amazing on her! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I wasn't sure on Miley Cyrus' outfit at first but it has definitely grown on me. When I think of some of her previous recent red carpet looks, she actually looks somewhat classy, ha! Miley has an amazing body so she can pull off the little bandeau and baggy/tight leather pants. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Ariana Grande has kept to her recent trend of mini dress and over the knee boots, but this time in leather. I actually quite like this look! I dont think anyone else could pull this off other than Ariana, I think she looks like superwoman that picture!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My least favourite look of the four is Adam Levine and his wife Behati. Behati looks stunning in everything she wears but I'm not a fan of the ruffles on the bottom half of the dress. They still look pretty cool though.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Trend 2 | Embellishments</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cordmzbG75Y/U_98WtFVvgI/AAAAAAAAAeM/-7VdSeiJv6s/s1600/Review3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cordmzbG75Y/U_98WtFVvgI/AAAAAAAAAeM/-7VdSeiJv6s/s1600/Review3.jpg" height="250" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Soooo many celebrity's this year wore embellished dresses! Embellishment is definitely the perfect way to add design to a dress without adding any print. I love Iggy Azalea's dress, although I think its maybe a bit too much for the VMAs. I think this would of been perfect for the Grammy awards.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Jennifer Lopez is wearing a very 'JLo' red carpet look, revealing whilst somewhat still classy. I can't believe she is in her 40's and can still pull this off! Like Ariana Grande, only Jennifer Lopez could pull off this dress!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Trend 3 | All Black </span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SmqAlmurWN4/U_98bSXctZI/AAAAAAAAAeg/po-P4gpOUwM/s1600/Review5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SmqAlmurWN4/U_98bSXctZI/AAAAAAAAAeg/po-P4gpOUwM/s1600/Review5.jpg" height="224" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
If you know me, you'll know that I pretty much only wear black when I go out! Although I don't think it would be my first choice if I went to a red carpet, these 5 ladies have definitely pulled it off!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I am in <i>love </i>with Beyonce's dress. But when doesn't Beyonce look good? She is wearing an all black embellished dress and although it's probably more Grammys than VMA, who cares, its Beyonce.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Kylie Jenner has been so on point with her fashion recently and she looks amazing here also! Her long satin dress shows off just the right amount of leg and cleavage and is the right length. I can't wait to see her next red carpet looks over the next few years! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Solange, Kendall Jenner and Jourdan Dunn all opted for simple black separates. I think Jourdan looked a little too simple as she wore a very plain black bandeau and maxi skirt, and didn't accesorise much either. Kendall and Solange' all black look is very classy whilst still appropriate for the VMAs.. (Minus Solange's hair!!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Who Wore It Best</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pD2rWJVB5IU/U_98amFe-1I/AAAAAAAAAec/-7uOO_GgHcM/s1600/Review4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pD2rWJVB5IU/U_98amFe-1I/AAAAAAAAAec/-7uOO_GgHcM/s1600/Review4.jpg" height="252" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kim Kardashian and Joan Smalls both wore Balmain mini dresses to the VMAs. Both of these dresses are perfect for the VMAs as they are somewhat risky and fun. I might be a little bit biased as I am obsessed with her, but I prefer Kim's look. The deep V breaks up the loud pattern, and Kims boobs look <i>amazing</i>, lets be honest. The top part of Joans dress looks a little like a lamp shade or something.. I'm not sure.. But she still looks pretty good!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Demi Lovato and Rita Ora both wore red deep V wrap dresses, with a high split. Again I'm going to be biased but I prefer Demi Lovato's look. Although, neither dress is particularly flattering on their boobs. Demi's boobs look too far apart and Rita just looks like she needs a bra ASAP. I think Demi's look overall is more classy, Rita's thigh split is far to high, especially when you have such a low neckline. I feel like if there was a slight tug on Rita's dress, the entire thing would fall apart.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Worst Dressed</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5iOOyDaown4/U_98WtyU8eI/AAAAAAAAAeI/vNQi1I1HEhA/s1600/Review2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5iOOyDaown4/U_98WtyU8eI/AAAAAAAAAeI/vNQi1I1HEhA/s1600/Review2.jpg" height="246" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These are the looks which I think are the worst. Firstly, although Jessie Js look isn't <i>that</i> bad, I just think its the wrong colour for her skin, and its just a bit of badly fitting dress. It looks as though she is wearing a bed sheet or something. I've seen similar dresses like this thousands of times, but this just really isnt flattering.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Taylor Swift quite simply makes me LOL these days. She is trying to be edgy but I really don't think she can pull it off! Her performance made me cringe.. As Chelsea Handler said, she is just too 'white' too be dancing like that. She also looks like the guy from Blades of Glory, Google it!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Charlie XCX looks like she has just escaped from the zoo. Maybe if she had her hair up or tamed it a little, it wouldn't have looked so bad.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lastly.. Amber Rose. I don't think I even need to explain this!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I hope you have enjoyed reading my review on all these outfits! Let me know what you thought about these outfits in the comments!</div>

to do a 10 facts about me. I have already done a random facts about me post so I
decided to google about me questions and came up with a post from <a href="http://allysrandomage.blogspot.co.uk/2007/06/101-random-questions.html">http://allysrandomage.blogspot.co.uk/2007/06/101-random-questions.html</a>.
There is 800 random questions on it so instead of searching through them all, I
found a number generator and these were the 10 numbers which came out first.</span><br />

every month. It has a good mixture of
fashion, beauty, and lifestyle plus loads more! It’s probably aimed at a 18+
audience so probably a little old for most teens. I have also bought Look
magazine almost every week since it came out. It always gives me a good idea of
what’s in the high street and any new trends.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fKn5kD9au38/U_oGvHvBMxI/AAAAAAAAAc8/um8LavOeqD4/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fKn5kD9au38/U_oGvHvBMxI/AAAAAAAAAc8/um8LavOeqD4/s1600/4.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recently I have seen so many celebrities wearing coloured eyeliner. Like most people, I tend to stick to black, brown and white when it comes to my eyeliner, so I thought it would be a fun idea to play around with coloured liner.</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The colours I decided to try were Urban Decay Ransom- a dark purple (£14.00), and Barry M KP19- a light blue (£2.99). Anyone who knows me or has read my previous blog post on my <a href="http://peachblossomx.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/kelseys-everyday-makeup.html">everyday makeup</a>, knows that I always wear white eyeliner on my water line so that's where I decided to put the coloured eyeliner.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TAK9yldQv98/U_oJ4AuuFNI/AAAAAAAAAdI/flldRxBqXWA/s1600/5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TAK9yldQv98/U_oJ4AuuFNI/AAAAAAAAAdI/flldRxBqXWA/s1600/5.jpg" height="422" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am actually really shocked that I quite like the coloured eyeliner! I thought blue and purple might of made me look like I was tired or had a black eye, but I think on the waterline it's quite subtle whilst still showing a pop of colour. I think I prefer the purple as its darker and less obvious that I'm wearing coloured eyeliner (the blue is a bit brighter in real life), although I would still wear both. The blue is probably better for daytime and the purple for night time. Without fail, I always use black liquid liner on my top eyelid so I thought there would be no point putting the coloured eyeliner on the top eyelid. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm going to start looking into coloured eyeliners more after trying these out, but have no idea what colours I'd choose?! Let me know in the comments what you think of coloured eyeliner and if you have any colour recommendations for me.</div>

My favourite performance had to be Justin Timberlake! He did an hour and a half performance on the Sunday night which was the perfect way to end the weekend. Right before Justin was Ed Sheeran who was also amazing. Another one of my favourite performances was Tinie Tempah. I'm not a massive Tinie Tempah fan but it was such a good atmosphere and I didn't realise I knew all of the words to his songs haa!</div>

I could write about this weekend forever but I am going to do another blog post soon about what I learnt from my very first festival. Let me know whether you attended V Festival last weekend and what you thought about it?</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So after being at University for 2 years, I thought I’d
share some of my top Uni tips which would be useful to new/current/future students.
This post will mainly be aimed at students living away from home, but a lot of
them could still be used if you’re living at home.<br />
<a name='more'></a><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I am going to make this into a little blog series as I love reading about other peoples University experiences so hopefully people will enjoy reading mine. I thought i'd start off with the obvious 10 tips for Uni. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>1.<span style="font-size: 7pt;"> </span>Budget</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Budgeting is literally the most important thing you have to
do whilst being at Uni. If you are like me and have to live off your loan/job
and get no money from your parents, then you have no choice but to budget. My
top tip would be to make sure you budget for EVERYTHING with a little bit of
spare/emergency money as well. Everything from rent and food to nights out and
clothes need to be budgeted. Let’s be honest, you aren't going to go an entire
term without buying any clothes or going on random nights out, so make sure you
plan on how much money you will give yourself for these ‘luxury’s’. Trust me, I
tend to spend my loan really quickly and have to rely on my job which really
isn't fun!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>2.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Get a job</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Even if you think you can live off your loan, getting a job
is such a great way to make friends, make a bit of money and something to do!
Yeah you might miss a few nights out/day trips but let’s be honest how much are
you actually missing? I currently have a job were you book your own shifts
which is perfect for students as you can book them around your life. This means
you can go on all the nights out you want as well as leaving yourself time to do
assignments! Plus sometimes it’s a great way to get away from your housemates
for a few hours hehe!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>3.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Know what items you should and shouldn't budget</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So as much as I would say budget and try and save as much
money as you can, there are just some things you really can’t budget. For me
it’s makeup. Although some items of makeup I have discovered a cheaper
alternative version, I simply can’t get a cheaper version of some bits of
makeup. Something that I don’t mind budgeting so much on is clothes, especially
basic staple items and flat shoes. One word.. Primark! Although I still mostly
shop in high street shops, Primark is so good for buying plain T-shirts,
leggings and flat everyday shoes! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>4.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Organise your assignments</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
There is nothing worse than having to do an all-nighter in
the library the day before an assignment is due, so make sure you organise
times to do it! I am one of those people who has to literally draw myself a
schedule of what days I have free and set a few hours aside to do my
assignments. I have always been a last minute type of person for everything as
I hate waiting, so I just make sure I plan a <b>realistic</b> schedule for when I am going to do my assignments. There
is no better feeling than finishing an assignment whilst your friends are still
doing it.. And vice versa! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>5.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Food Shopping</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
For me the food I always have to have in my fridge is
cheese, eggs, beans, potato waffles and bacon, which just happens to be one of
my fave meals! (Most people always also like to have milk and bread, but I
have learnt to live without these.) All of these items cost around £1 and can
be used to make so many more meals, obviously I have more food than just them.
My top tip would also be to write a list of food you want to buy before you go,
it’s so easy to throw everything that looks tasty into the trolley and then end
up spending a fortune! Know realistically what food you are actually going to
eat and always check sell by dates! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>6.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Entertaining yourself for cheaper</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Many people think that when you’re a student you can’t
afford to go out for meals or do anything during the day, but there is so many
places which have special discount days/ discounts for students. I know living in Manchester, there are so many places on a Monday which do 50% off
food and everyone knows about Orange Wednesdays.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><b>7.<span style="font-size: 7pt;">
</span><!--[endif]-->Netflix</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you’re not yet at Uni, you probably won’t realise how
much free time you will have! Especially in the day time when all your
housemates are at Uni at different times, so invest in Netflix. Netflix has
literally been a boredom savior this year, you will find yourself watching an
entire TV series in a couple of days! If you live with a few people then split
the price of Netflix, or if you’re like me and have a wonderful friend who
already has Netflix and gives her password out to all of us then it’s amazing!

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Okay so I have known my housemates for 2 years now but there
is some stuff that you will need to prepare yourself for when living with a
group of people. Firstly food and drinks will magically go missing and no
matter how many times you tell everyone not to, it’s still gonna happen. So
remember to keep anything important (like chocolate) hidden or in your room!
You will also start the year with loads of cups and cutlery and come home with
1 of each. No one knows where anyone’s stuffs gone so don’t buy anything too expensive. Lastly, arguments can be kept a minimum if you learn to give and
take. I've heard about arguments from other groups of students were they all now hate eachother, which are mainly from
people not respecting each other’s wants and needs etc. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="text-indent: -18pt;"> Pre-drinking is crucial at uni if
you want to be able to actually afford a night out. It can also be really fun
if you play some games and put music on. Ring of fire and I have never are the
usual games most students play, but try googling some as it can end up being a
lot more fun!</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This blog post is about my favourite Nail Varnish and Lip products that I've been using this Summer. For some people Summer means bright colours, but I'm a little colour shy so I like to stick to pastel colours.<br />
<a name='more'></a> Some of these items are older than others, so I'm not sure whether you can still buy some of these products.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">From left to right: Victorias Secret- Lip Shine, Rimmel- Lasting Finish Lipstick 077, Tanya Burr- Afternoon Tea, L'oreal- L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick 601, Topshop- Innocent<i> (All of the colours are a little lighter in real life)</i></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Victorias Secret- Lip Shine</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I bought this lipgloss last Summer so I don't think they still sell this, but I know they sell a very similar (basically the same product). This is quite sheer but its perfect for when you just want to add gloss and not much colour.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Rimmel- Lasting Finish Lipstick 077</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I love this lipstick! It's more of a night time lipstick as it's so pigmented and stays on for ages. It is a pinky brown colour which I have been obsessed with recently.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Tanya Burr- Afternoon Tea</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is my first Tanya Burr Lipgloss and I really like it! Its a peach pink colour and smells so nice! Its very pigmented for a lipgloss although it can be a little drying on the lips. Apply a little lip balm before and its not so drying.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>L'oreal- L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick 601</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I bought this liquid lipstick as there was a 3 for 2 offer on in boots and I just thought the packaging looked interesting! I've never tried a 'liquid lipstick' before but it reminds me a lot of Rimmels Apocalips. Although its really nice, its a little bit too thick so you have to blot it a lot.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Topshop- Innocent</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This lipstick is quite sheer which is great for the Summer. Its a light pink colour with a little bit of sparkle in it. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: x-small;">From Left to Right: Rimmel Lycra Professional Finish- 391 Celebrity bash, Barry M- Peach Melba, Barry M- Berry Ice Cream, Topshop- Disclosed, Topshop- Milkshake<i> (Coulours are a lot lighter in real life)</i></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Rimmel Lycra Professional Finish- 391 Celebrity bash</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This colours a lot darker than the rest of my Summer nail choices, but that's because I wear it on my toe nails! I don't like to draw attention to my toe nails so I find that a classic dark red is perfect for doing that. This nail varnish stays on for ages and the thick applicator is perfect for toe nails.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Barry M- Peach Melba</b> and <b>Barry M- Berry Ice Cream</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
These colours are so Summery! Barry M's nail varnishes always stay on for ages and they are quite sheer (without being too sheer) meaning you can add more layers depending on how coloured you want them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Topshop- Disclosed</b> and <b>Topshop- Milkshake</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Topshop is my go to place when I want a light pastel colour as they are so pigmented meaning you don't have to add thousands of layers. I find it hard to find cheap light coloured nail varnishes which aren't pratically see through. (Apart from Barry M)</div>

<b>Travel</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I really really really want to travel but I have just been so unfortunate with the usual student money problems that I haven't been able to recently. I would love to take a year out to travel around the world, but for now I am aiming to go to the USA! (<i>Where I will meet my future husband etc.</i>)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Career</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next year I will be graduating and it will be time for me to officially become an adult and get a proper job! <i>Hopefully this will be somewhere within Fashion!! </i>I am excited to start working, just nervous to start the process of finding a job.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Health & Fitness</b></div>

I want to start being healthy and more fit within the next year. I hardly ever exercise and I definitely don't eat the best so maybe I should start soon!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Have Fun and Party!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My last year of University is coming up, so I am going to make the most of my student life and party and drink as much as I can. After all it is the last year before I'm a proper adult! Boo.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm looking forward to the next year but I will be very sad when it's over. I'm excited to see what the future brings!..</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nLfg_5WtZU4/U-AR_R5wA3I/AAAAAAAAAWI/jpMPu6HiLmY/s1600/cover+photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nLfg_5WtZU4/U-AR_R5wA3I/AAAAAAAAAWI/jpMPu6HiLmY/s1600/cover+photo.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've seen a few mixed reviews on Benefit They're Real push up liner, so I thought I would review the drugstore dupe, which is Maybellines Lasting Drama Gel Liner Pen. I bought this from Superdrug for £8.99.<br />
<a name='more'></a> Please note this isn't a comparison as I haven't tried Benefits They're Real push up liner yet.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HycyNJxJJC8/U-AR7ckWE9I/AAAAAAAAAWA/wOcRjW4PvsI/s1600/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HycyNJxJJC8/U-AR7ckWE9I/AAAAAAAAAWA/wOcRjW4PvsI/s1600/4.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I first saw Benefits <span style="text-align: justify;">They're Real push up liner, I was very intrigued as it was supposed to make drawing on eyeliner a lot easier. I don't think many people can truly say they have mastered liquid/gel liner, getting both eyes to match every time, so this product seemed perfect. After reading all of the mixed reviews and seeing the price, I wasn't rushing out to buy Benefit's new product. I then came across Maybellines version which It was £10 cheaper and looks the exact same.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><b>Pros</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">I find gel liners a bit annoying because normally you have a little pot and a separate brush to apply it with. I find the brushes go hard very quickly which means a lot of upkeep. With this gel liner pen, you click the bottom bit around and it pumps out the perfect amount of gel. Not too much, not too little. I normally find it quite hard to do a thin line along my lash line, but as the applicator is so thin it is easy to get it very close to the lashes. Lastly, this eyeliner literally stays on all day! I have even had naps throughout the day and when I've woken up, my makeup still looks perfect. (I sleep on my front too!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><b>Cons</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">This pen is supposed to make it easier to draw on eyeliner, but I find that it actually takes me longer to apply it. The gel seems to run out as you go along the lash line and you have to keep clicking it which can make the eyeliner not look like one long smooth line. (As you can see from the picture below.) It has also taken me a while to get used to this pen and even now I am not totally confident with it. Even though this liner does stay on all day, if you mess up whilst applying the eyeliner its a massive pain having to get eye makeup remover and starting all over again. (Practice before using) If I make the liner too thick then sometimes it imprints onto the top of my eyelid throughout the day which can be very annoying. If you have a 'hooded eyelid' then this will very likely be a big problem. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Overall Review</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I don't regret buying this eyeliner as I think on a day when i need an eyeliner to stay on all day, this would be the perfect choice. I find the applicator a little tricky to use so I don't think I will be buying Benefit's version. I am probably going to stick to my normal eyeliner for now and use this when I have a lot of time to do my makeup.</div>

This month I have been loving these items. There were a few more items that I was going to add to this, but I have just moved out of my University house so everything is all over the place. Ill make sure I blog about those items sometime in August or even add them to my August favourites!</div>

<b>Maybeline Dream Fresh BB Cream<o:p></o:p></b></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have had this BB cream for ages as it’s cheap and gives a
light coverage for when I don’t want to put much makeup on, although I don’t wear
it very much. But I have really loved this product whilst I was on holiday. If I don’t wear
foundation, people literally ask me if I’m sick, so I’m not one of these people
who can wear no makeup completely. This
BB cream was perfect for during the day and night as it gives you a light
coverage whilst having SPF 30 in it, giving me a healthy natural glow. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Moroccan Argan Oil<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have lived by this product ever since I started dip dying my hair last year after it became so dry from all the bleach, but this is a life saver in summer. Moroccan Argan Oil injects shine and gloss into your hair, and without it my hair has a candy floss texture to it. Ew. I bought this from Home Bargains so it was only a couple of pound, you can buy more expensive versions but this does the job perfectly fine.</div>

<b>Tangle Teezer</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've had this Tangle Teezer for a year now and have used it here and there, but I prefer my Mason Pearson brush. For some reason my hair has been super knotty recently, so I threw the Tangle Teezer in my bag and its the perfect brush for when you're on the go. This one is designed for children as its a cute flower design but the actual brush part is the same as the normal Tangle Teezers.</div>

<b>The Comforter Bubble Bar - Lush</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This bubble bar literally smells like heaven. I'm not a massive fan of bubble baths as it means you cant wash your hair etc. but this smells so good that I don't care. It smells of blackcurrant and makes your bath pink!</div>

<b>MAC Strobe Cream<o:p></o:p></b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I found this sample in one of my old makeup bags so I
decided to give it a go and I really like it! I have very dry skin so finding a
good moisturising primer is crucial. I mix this with my foundation and it adds a nice dewy look to your skin. I am probably going to buy the
larger version when I get my student loan. (<i>Plus
it’s packed with tons of vitamins and good stuff!</i>)<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Yankee Candle Votive</b></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyone who knows me knows I love a good smelling candle. I
have quite a strong sense of smell and am so self-conscious of my room smelling
bad, so I like to make it smell nice with candles. I haven’t bought a big Yankee candle yet as I
don’t think I've found my favourite smell yet as there is so many to choose
from. So for now I love buying these little votive candles which cost £1-£2, (depending
on where you buy them), and they smell so good! This Summer Scoop scent is perfect for the summer.<o:p></o:p><br />
