I've been using the same pair of curling tongs since I was about 13 years old, and recently my old friends gave up on me, so I had to make a decision on which curlers to buy next. After doing A LOT of research, I decided on the NuMe Lustrum set, mainly because I liked … Continue reading NuMe Lustrum Set Review
If you search for reviews on the Anastasia Beverly Hills Subculture Palette, you'll end up in a whirlwind of negativity. Although I do understand the reasoning behind the bad reviews, I feel as though a lot of people are just jumping on the bandwagon now without really giving it a chance. So, I want to … Continue reading A Positive Look at the ABH Subculture Palette
One day last year I was scrolling through Pinterest, when I came across an image of the most breathtakingly beautiful castle I had ever seen.

Day 1 The adventure began by us getting up literally in the middle of the night to catch an early morning flight. We landed in Munich at around 9.30am so we had the whole day left to start exploring the city.

Hello everyone! Today I'm back with the second instalment of my 'apprenticeship series'. Last time I explained the reasons why I chose an apprenticeship, but this time I'd like to talk about some of the things that you aren't told before becoming an apprentice.

Hi guys, it's been a while since I last posted on here - and that is because I've been insanely busy these last few weeks finishing my apprenticeship. So I thought now would be the perfect time to get to work on this idea of a 3-part 'Apprenticeship Series' here on my blog.

Is it just me, or are most 'everyday makeup routines' super unrealistic? If you work full time with standard hours (like me), the chances are you don't prime your face with 20 different products, rock a smokey eye, or spend an hour blending your contour every morning. If you do, then you go girl, I wish I … Continue reading *Realistic* Everyday Makeup Routine
Disgustingly touristy content alert! When my family first started talking about going to the US, I was very insistent on going to Los Angeles. Mainly because I spend a lot of my life on social media, and the one place that people on the Internet seem to talk about more than anywhere else, is LA. With constant … Continue reading My First Time in Los Angeles!
Today I just want to chat about Lancôme, because I have a serious love for the brand and I feel that their products don’t always get the recognition and ‘hype’ that they deserve. Everyone has their reasons for liking (or not liking) a brand, and I understand that not everyone will be into Lancôme’s products. … Continue reading My Love For Lancôme
If someone asked me to describe this holiday in 3 words I would say: Really, really, hot. I am not complaining though! With pretty much constant rain and gloominess throughout June in the UK I couldn't wait to get into that scorching desert heat. I’m not exaggerating either, the average temperature every day was around … Continue reading Palm Springs 2016
I've been pretty quiet on this blog recently - primarily because I went and soaked up some sun in California for two weeks, and now I've come back to work and it's busy busy busy! I am going to write a separate post about the US trip for my travel category, but today I just want to talk makeup! If you're … Continue reading USA Mini Makeup Haul
After returning from our summer holiday and experiencing some extreme holiday blues, me and two of my best friends decided (kind of spontaneously) to book a Christmas getaway to Prague. We went for 3 nights, with the intention to explore the city, wander around the Christmas markets, eat some good food, drink some nice cocktails and just relax! Arriving … Continue reading Prague – Christmas 2015
As a massive Gwen Stefani fan while growing up, when I heard that she had teamed up with Urban Decay (one of my favourite makeup brands) to release her own products, I was expecting big things. However, when I first saw pictures of this palette I wasn't blown away by the design or the eyeshadows, I'm not sure … Continue reading Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette – Review
Ahh Zakynthos, the beautiful Greek island home to some breathtaking views, white sand, blue sea, turtles and more. While this island has so much to offer in the way of culture and relaxation, it also happens to be home to Laganas, a town where there is an abundance of cheap accommodation, cheap alcohol and nightclubs open till 10am. … Continue reading Zante 2015

Today I'm going to be doing a super quick review of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz. If you are new to the Brow Wiz, it's basically a brow pencil with a very precise tip, making it easy to give the illusion of individual hairs on your brows. I probably don't even need to be … Continue reading Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz – Soft Brown
