What I Got For Christmas

Since I enjoy reading posts on what people got for Christmas and videos, I thought I would write one.  I am in no way bragging or showing off what I got, I just thought some of you might want to read it :) 

Ted Baker's 'The Girl With The Beautiful Face'

I am well and truly in love with this.  The packaging is perfect and the products inside are even better.   The eye shadow crayons and lipstick are my absolute favourites. 

Soap and Glory: The Soapremes

(Given up taking my own pictures because the quality is rubbish, sorry) 

I do have a slight obsession with Soap and Glory so this was perfect for me, and it had cosy socks!!! What more could you want. 

Giant Ferrero Rocher

Ferrero Rocher are my favourites so getting a giant one in my stocking was like my dream come true., not gonna lie haha.

As well as this, I also got a lot more chocolate but I don't think any of you just want to see pictures of chocolate.  

Besides chocolate, I got lots of Avon nail varnishes.  I actually really like Avon nail varnishes and they aren't too expensive.  A few of the shades I got were, Candy Apple, Sheer love and Creme Brûlée, which are all the 'Gel Finish Nail Enamel'.  I also got the Black 'Colour Trend Starbust Nail Enamel' 

So there are a few of the presents I got, which I am all very grateful for.

Night time Routine

I love watching these types of videos on Youtube and reading blog posts about this, so I thought I shall write one and hope you all enjoy!

The first thing I do is take off my make up.  I use the kind to skin cleansing facial wipes: 

These take off all my makeup so easily and because it is simple, I know that it is going to be ok for my skin.  However, to take my eye make off I don't use these I use the Kind to Eyes make up Remover: 

I use this instead of the wipes as I just found it took my eye make up off better.  All you have to do is put some on a cotton pad, hold it onto the eye for a bit and then just wipe and BAM all your make up is off. 

Next to cleanse my face I use the Simple Pore minimising cleanser. (Yes I like simple haha) 

You use it in a smiliar way to the Eye make up remover.  Put some onto a Cotton Pad and just wipe it all over your face.  I really like this as it makes my skin just feel soft and cleansed and I definitely notice the difference.

Finally, the last product I use is the Soap And Glory 'Peaches and Clean'.

This is a face wash.  I pump some onto my hand and spread over my face (Not sure how to say that!!) and then wash it off with warm water and dry my face.  My skin always feels SO nice after I use this and the smell is AMAZING, I love it. 

Once I've done all this I will just go to bed :) 

I hope you liked this post, if you want me to do a more detailed routine (like moisturiser, bath and hair etc included) let me know!

Lush

So it was my birthday a couple of days ago and a couple of friends bought some Lush products.  I absolutely love Lush products so this made me very happy!  The first one was this:

Northern Lights

     
This Bath Bomb was AMAZING.  I'm terrible at describing smells but the smell of this was just so good. It was sweet and just so fresh.  The colours it turned my bath were lovely, as well.  It started off as pink and then as it dissolved more and more slowly a dark turquoise came out a long with a pale yellow and little stars.  The end resulted in a dark pink/purple bath with a few bubbles.  Perfect.

This picture has not come out good, but I thought I'd put it in anyway, haha.











I'm yet to use the second one, which is called 'Think Pink' but when | do, there will be another post!

Airport Duty Free

So at the Airport this year the Duty Free was MASSIVE but unfortunately we had more or less no time to buy anything and there was loads of Mac stuff which I couldn't even look at which makes me sad, but anyway I just had time to buy the perfume Dolce by Dolce and Gabbana.

I only bought the small bottle (which I'm regretting because it smells SO good) because I'd never used it before and didn't want a waste money on a massive bottle and hate it. I'm awful at explaining smells but it just smells nice and summery and fresh. I also think the bottle is really cute with the small bow and the flower lid. Definitely go and check this perfume out :)

Beauty Favorites at The Moment

I thought I would do a post on my current beauty favorites as I recently went on a little bit of a shopping spree! I've linked the products in the titles if you wish to look at the price etc.

Current Makeup Bag: 

I bought this from Superdrug, I just thought it looked really cute with the polka dots and it is a really good size.

Mascara:












This has always been my favorite mascara (thank you to Tanya Burr)  It really does give the effect of false eyelashes, like the bottle says, but still looking natural.  It is not at all clumpy and I just love it really haha.


The Body Shop All-in One InstaBlur and BB Cream:

I bought these two products the other day which I've never bought before, but from watching  videos I had heard good stuff so I thought I may as well try it! The BB cream is very good if you only need a light coverage and I just think it's really good how it adapts to your skin colour (it comes out white until you brush it in).  The InstaBlur works ok.  I do prefer the primer from Benefits though.

The Body Shop Bronzer:

I'm always buying bronzers because I'm always ridiculously pale haha. I've never tried this before but I do really like it.  I don't use the sponge it comes with, I use a powder brush and it just goes in really well.  You don't need too much of it at a time, more is less.  I really like the idea of the pearls, which I've never tried before.

Rimmel Stay Matter Powder: 

If you've never used this you are missing out! I absolutely love this. It gives a good matte finish (obviously haha) and lasts all day.  I buy it in the transparent shade and it matches perfectly to my pale skin.

Tanya Burr Exclusive collection by Eye Candy Lip Gloss- Afternoon Tea:

I love this shade, it is just a nice pale pink with sparkle! It goes onto the lips really nicely and lasts all day which I love! Definitley go and buy this.

So there we go, I'm not good at describing things AT ALL but I just thought this post would be a good idea.  If you want to see more of my makeup collection, then just let me know :)
