Buys of the day

 Buys of the day are make up and i got them for a cheaper price from Morrison which was great because they are full price at other shops and i saved money which is always a good thing.

First purchase is color 24 hour tattoo by Maybelline which is a cream eye shadow. I got two of them, the colors are pink gold and eternal gold.



The second purchase was Maybelline's mascara the mega plush volum' expressin in the color black.







Prices: cream eye shadows £3.99 normal price £4.99
            mascara £5.99 normal price £7.99

I will be doing reviews on these products soon and swatches which might help if you are not sure whether or not to purchase these products.

Product Review on Tresemme Heat Defence


The tresemme heat defence is great as it protects you hair up 230 degrees Celsius so when styling your hair with heat you know you hair is not going to get burn as long as you use the right heat setting for your hair. On the bottle it says smooths fizz and seals in shine which it completely does. The bottle has a spray which is easy application , just spray to your hair and brush through and it also has a lock button to lock it and unlock it. The spray has a scent which is like a shampoo or conditioner smell. Also after styling and your hair is a little frizzy i just spray some tresemme heat defence in my hands and rub them together and apply to my hair to tame it and my hair becomes smooth and shiny.  So overall i would give this tresemme product 5 stars out of 5 as it does what it says and you could use it to control frizzy hair.

Disclaimer - i buy all the products myself and am not paid to do it 

    

Product Review on Batiste Dry Shampoo


This is batiste dry shampoo which as a hint of brown color so it would blend in with brown or dark hair so it is perfect because it doesn't show the spray in your hair. It says on the back it removes any excess grease however in my hair it didn't quite do that as i have oily hair at the end of the day and it made it look worse so it looked like my hair was wet but if you have normal hair which doesn't get oily and just needs freshened up then its perfect for you. This dry shampoo does give you volume which is great and it smells like perfumed baby wipes to me. The price of this dry shampoo could be around £3.99 but you can get it cheaper depending where you purchase it and size of the spray. Warning if you have light colored clothes be careful when spraying as it may leave a mark on your clothes because the spray has a hint of brown. I would give this dry shampoo 3 stars out of 5 as it gives you great volume and is a reasonable price but it doesn't really work on my hair as it gets oily easily but if someone else had dry to normal hair am sure it would be a great purchase for them.

A day in My life whilst on study leave


Got breakfast around 9:20am and had alpen fruit and nut porridge and then i added banana
 For lunch i had a tuna salad roll
 From 9am to 3pm i studied administration and modern studies with breaks in between.  

Drink of the day is water. At first i really didn't like water and would always have some sort of fruit juice or fizzy juice but now am getting into drinking more water because its good for your health and makes you less thirsty. 

Right now am on study leave which is when your off school for around 6 weeks and you study at home.You just go into school on the day of your exam but you can also go into school if you need help or to study.

Review on Max Factor Creme Puff Powder


I bought this powder from Superdrug and it was £5.99. The powder comes in 8 shades which range from light fair skin to tanned skin. The powder has a light perfume smell to it. I apply it with a fluffy brush but you could also apply it with a make up sponge.


The powder comes with a plastic circle cover which protects the powder and it also comes with a sponge but am not sure if its a make up sponge as it is rather thin but i think its more to protect the powder.


As you can see i have hit the bottom of the product. The powder is easy to apply and does give cover to blemishes without giving it a caked look also when you apply the powder it gives you a flawless look and makes your skin feel smoother. Over all i would give this product 4 out of 5 :)

Buys of the day

Went Shopping today and bought a few things :)


I bought Bic black inc pens because right now am on study leave , a black leather effect note book and a spiral hard back bird cage design note book.

Purchases from:
Pens and bird cage note book B&M - 99p
Black leather effect note book from Morrisons - £2.50

Product Review on L'oreal Matt and Messy Salt spray

I bought the salt spray for around £2 ish and it does give you that messy look but not beach like waves which i wanted to achieve. I have really long hair so it just made by hair look like i needed to brush it but if you had shoulder length hair and have natural waves i would purchase it as it would give you the messy and beach like waves. The spray doesn't make your hair sticky or crunchy but does have a slight smell to the product. If you have long hair like me or has straight hair i would curl your hair with loose curls then add the salt to achieve the beach waves. If you try and brush out the product in your hair , you will find yourself tugging at your hair as the product makes your hair hard to brush. Overall i would give the salt spray 3 stars out of 5.

Spring Fashion

I love  Spring fashion looks, a simple denim cropped jacket to put over when the weather is warm but not warm enough to out without a jacket. The color mint is on trend this spring with many other light pastel colors. Skater skirts are a great item to add to your wardrobe as you can dress them up using a fancy top or wear them casual with just a simply t-shirt.
Tip - If you want to dress up an outfit just simply add some accessories which makes your outfit more glam

Go for your dreams and do what you love

Welcome to my first blog :)

All of my life i haven't really had a hobby and i hope blogging could become on of them. I love fashion and its something i would love to do as my job in the future so i hope i can share some tips and tricks later in my blog posts. If your reading this and don't know what to blog about just blog about something your really enjoy or perhaps you're life. If your one of those people who look at the screen and wish you were blogging or doing YouTube videos , don't wish it, make it come true, your the person who controls your life . That is why am starting to blog because am that girl who is behind the screen wishing i could be a blogger or youtuber , so today is the day where it stops :)
 Don't be afraid to do something new or something you love because you're afraid what others think or reach for dreams because people think there silly. I love this quote which is "reach for the moon even if you don't reach it , you will always be among the stars. 
 Good luck and all the best for the future.
