Christmas Day #23!


Hey guys, today I'm going to do a make-up post on best christmas make-up products from Max Factor - The reason I'm doing Max Factor is because personally I find this a great brand with affordable prices and I know it's a pretty popular brand.

Foundation
Face finity all day flawless 3 in 1 Foundation which is a great coverage foundation and also contains a primer which cuts out a couple of minutes of your daily routine.

Concealer
Face panstick which is a brilliant concealer foundation stick, this is great coverage to cover up any shininess or any blemishes.



Eyeshadow
Wild shadow pot - Pale Pebble, which is a lovely skin tone colour to spread all over the lid. 
Wild shadow pot - Burnt Bark, which is a brown which I'd use in the corner to make the look more intense.

Eyeliner
Masterpeice glide & define liquid eyeliner to create a catflick which makes the look very classy and feline.

Lipstick
Colour elixr lipstick - Ruby tuesday which is a lovely red colour to make the look even classier and bright for christmas day.



Blusher
Flawless perfection blusher - Classic Rose, to put a lovely warm colour on the cheeks on a cold winter day!

Christmas Day #13!


Trust me to get the unlucky number 13! dun dun DUN!

My post today will be on some of my 3 favourite winter jumpers! I say winter, as I'm not very Christmassy as a matter of fact I am a Scrooge without the beard...
That escalated rather quickly. So yes, my 3 favourite jumpers for this lovely, cold cold cold season!!
Apologises for the lighting on this photo :-| stupid light bulbs.


1) The first jumper is a white wooly one, which is so cute and warm. The brilliant thing about this jumper is that it literally goes with anything you want to wear! 
I'd team this jumper up with a black skater skirt with a belt around the waist, some cable knit chunky black tights, black wedged trainers, a faux leather jacket and a statement necklace!
Jumper from New Look.

2) The second jumper is black and white swirly pattern. This is such a lovely detail to this and is oversized as well which looks extra great!
I'd put this with black disco pants / light joni jeans, a pair of firetrap flatforms and a black leather jacket!
Jumper also from New Look.

3) The third and final jumper is a black and red tartan style. This is more of a top than a jumper I have to say it's not the thickest of things! lol, however this is so cute especially as everybody is loving tartan at the minute. 
I'd put this with a pair of black disco pants, chelsea boots and a great big parka! (because you can't beat a good old parka :-)) 
Top / Thin jumper from Primark.

Hope you enjoyed this post if so, let us know so we can do more of them! :D

Christmas Day #10!

So today I thought I would review one of my all time favourite products! 

OPI nail envy! 

This is, without a doubt, one of the best things I have ever used on my nails. I have been a nail biter all of my life and stopped just before prom (about May time) but they were in such bad condition! I started to use this product. I would put it on every other day and take it off at the weekend and then start again. My nails grew so strong and really quick, it was amazing! After a while I started to limit my usage and didn't realise how much I needed it until I had ran out. After a few weeks my nails became weaker again and, sadly, would peel off. Anyway, I went back out and got the product just the other week and I have started using it again. Immediately my nails are getting so much better!! It is not a cheap product but I don't have a bad word to say about it. It is amazing! It dries quickly and you can layer it up and the brush allows for really easy application. I would definitely recommend giving it a go, you will not be disappointed! 

OPI is such a good nail brand and they do so many amazing products! I would also suggest getting the cuticle oil which is brilliant for poorly nails. It is really important over winter to take care of your hands because they get so so dry! A really good hand cream to use is Soap and Glorys 'Hand food'. This comes in all different sizes and I usually get mine from Boots :) 

Slightly off topic but exciting news, I found out if I have got a part in the school musical (Grease) tomorrow so I will let you know :D also, we will soon be recording my very first acoustic video which I hope you guys like! 
Hope you have had a good day!
