Monthly Favourites -January 2014-

Hello lovelies,
As most of you would agree that January is the month where we normally don't have that many favourites but I've managed to gather five beauty products and a couple of snacks that I've enjoyed the most through out this first month of the year.

The first product is the MUA Pro-Base Primer which if you follow me on twitter you would know that I've had this for about three months, now trying it out and it seems to be the best drugstore primer I've tried. 
The second product is the Clean & Clear Morning Energy Shine Control Daily Facial Wash which i got it last week and use it every morning before i go to college which works very well together with the Clean & Clear morning every shine control daily facial scrub which i use it when i take shower and both of this products does exactly what it says on the bottle it leaves my skin oil free all day.
The next product is the Naturally Matt Foundation by Collection on the shade Beige 3 which has becomes my new day-to-day foundation this winter as it leaves my skin flawless for about 6 hours (which is normally as long as i allow my face to stay with make up on) it doesn't have the best coverage but if you have been with me long enough you'd know that i like my make up as natural as possible so the only thing i expect the foundation to do is to cover a little bit of the red blemishes other than that the concealer should do the job.
The last beauty product that I've loved this month is the Exaggerate Water Proof Eye Definer by Rimmel London on the shade 26| Noir which it's been my waterline eye liner for as long as i can remember.

Moving on from Beauty products. So my snake recently have contained just the Cadbury Bournville Classic Dark Chocolate and started my addiction again to the Lipton Ice Tea Peach flavour. 

Well this is pretty much it, sorry for the bad quality photos it's because I'm moving houses next week and most of my things including my camera are already packed and ready to move so yeah. When I'm settled in the new house I'll do a room tour video/ post and might even start doing youtube videos.. hopefully everything works out with this idea, because i tried before and i've never gone through with posting it because i always felt self conscious about how i looked in it but I'll give it a try once again. 

Also leave it down in the comments what products you've been enjoying this past month and what kind of posts would you like to see it next on the blog.. I've been struggling with new ideas.. it would be awesome if you guys helped me out.

Much Love,

Very early Christmas Wish List!

Hey guys,
I know is a bit early to be posting a 'Christmas Wish List' but yeah.
I know the things in my list seems a little bit greedy but thats what I've been wanting for a long time now and I know im not going to get everything I want but I always stick to this this list until I get everything doesnt matter if I spend years waiting for it. I notmally ask for one thing for christmas and then one thing for my birthday and normally those things are what I really really want/need.

1. Macbook Pro 15inch. This is something I've wanting for a long time, my current computer is very very old and its supper slow. Nearly every month I have to restore it so it wont frezze consgtantly or what not, even though my parents dont want to get me a laptop (they want to get me a newer version of my current computer which is a macmini) but I just think it would be more pratical to have a laptop as I'm in college and in a few years will be going to university it would be easier to already have a laptop which I could take anywhere and do my assiments and other things.

2. Dr Martens Pascal Boot Black. AHHHHHH I just want those boots so much!

3. Aria Clarisonic Blue. Well I really want this as I heard loads of good things about it and how I have really bad skins I would like to give this a try and see if it gets any better. I dont specifivcally want a Aria Clarisonic Blue, I would be happy the cheapest one I can find xD.

4. RealTechnique Powder Brush. I'm just in need of a new and big powder brush as I only use brushes for my powder anyway.

5. Maybelline New York Baby Lips Balm Electro. I JUST WANT IT! I've seen pictures of people wearing them and I just feel in love with the shades.

6. Mac Shy Girl Lipstick. I've wanted a nude lipstick for a few months now and as I've been searching through the web, loads of people seem to use this one and I've seen people using them and its exactly the shade I want.

7. Penny Board. since I was little I used to love to skate and everything and since I moved to london it seems like I have forgoten about every productive thing I used to do. I would love to get a penny board and get on my old habbits of skating around and hurting myself trying to learn new tricks ( not those extream ones but yeah) haha.

What do you want for christmas? or what have you been dying to get?

Let me know in the comments.

Back to "School"

Hello girlies,

One of the reasons I have been lacking on posts this past week or two is because I started sixth form (last two years of high school for you lovely American followers) and for this space of a week and a half that I've been there I've gotten 3 essays and 4 intense researches to do. I promised to do a post everyday this month but it didn't work out as I planned due to those 'homework's', so from now on I'll try my best to post at least once a week not just for you guys but because i want to (obviously).

So heres my "Back to school" haul (kind of xD) :

I was searching for a cute backpack everywhere and when i finally found one on ebay it was out of stock so I searched for the exact same one and found it from another seller (thank god). The bag bellow is by Anna Smith is in the colour turquoise polka dots. (got it for £18.99).

 Then I went on a hunt for cheap school supplies (project books, pens,pencils, labels, rulers, binders and etc) so I went to Tesco's xD thats where I got those project books bellow (notebooks), BiC pens, ruler, HB pencils and that little box of labels which all of that cost me about £17-20 because I got about 5 project books (£2.50 each). I end up not needing those project books because my Sixth Form actually gave some to us (one for each teacher) which I didn't know they would but even though I'm not going to use these daily I use to revise, copy the lesson down when I get home, make notes, do my homework  and also do my own research on (which is very useful and will help me when i comes to revising for the exams).

The binder i didn't buy xD i asked my dad to bring one from his work because it was easier and cheaper.

This pencil case bellow I got it in Brazil at a store called Tok&Stok, cant remember how much it was but it wasn't that expensive. Since I was young all my pencil cases were from there and all see through but in different colours each year xD.

Tomorrow I'll be going out to get more things which are missing for some of my lesson. For example a huge A3 folder to carry my photography books in, Hole-puncher to make holes on my paper to put in my binder and also a new pack or just one eraser haha.

Did you just go back to School/College/Sixth form? What did you get?

Much Love,

Sixth Form(College) Courses (A-Level's & BTEC Level 3's)

Hello lovely readers/followers,

So as you know I'm sixteen and that mean I just started Sixth Form(College) meaning new subjects, grade boundaries, new people and new environment.
I started Sixth Form(College) on the 4th of september and i choose to do A-level Media studies, A-Level Psychology, A-Level Drama and BTEC Level 3 Photography.

One of the first lessons I had was Psychology and when i first choose it i always thought it was going to be boring and that I wouldn't enjoy it at all and I actually do like it is one of my favourite subjects in College. We are learning about attachment and memory :)

 Then I had Media Studies which I've loved since year 10 when I first started doing in secondary school. When I got in the class it hit me that I never actually learnt the media language and techniques and certain key terms but that wont stop me from loving the subject (so after the first day when I got home I went straight to the computer and researched everything I needed to know). We're learning all the Media Language and techniques and about Action Adventure Films. Also my favourite subject.

Then I had Drama, which is something I enjoy doing and find very useful in life (to build up your confidence) to speak to groups of people or even just one person. I had about four lessons of drama and I noticed that it wasn't exactly what I wanted to do for more two years so I changed, for BTEC lEVEL 3 ICT which doesn't sound or is very fun to do but for the career I want to proceed is very useful in a way.

Then Finally I had Photography which is something people find it very easy because they think is all about having a camera/phone and take a "awesome" picture and that makes them a photographer (no offence to anyone). What I love about this course is that we learn the history, the techniques, we learn about other photographers and everything that would relate to photography and graphic design.

 Are you in College/University? What subjects are you doing? Do you enjoy them?Let me know in the comments bellow.

Much Love,
