It sounds cheesy but I would honestly spend it with everyone I love,  I would do things I have never done before and just not go to sleep so I could have the longest time possible with everyone.

August Favourites...

Favourite Beauty Products of the Month-

Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion (sorry I cant remember the price I brought this in America last year)-



I brought this in America last year and in all honesty forgot all about it because I had brought the wrong colour (I brought brown/black instead of black), but then re-discovered it this month and I'm so glad I did! I love this it definitely adds more volume than length so I use my Revlon Grow Luscious mascara over the top of it. The brush is plastic and has many bristles, it is quite a large brush and considering I have pretty small eyes, its really easy to use. I am also so glad I brought it in the colour I did; if I lived in America I would definitely re-purchase it again. 

V05 Miracle Mist £4.39-


OMG! I love this stuff! It is just simply amazing! It makes your hair smell good enough to eat, it makes it soft and tames frizz, what more can I say, I LOVE it!!! Definitely recommend you go buy this.

Barry M Nail Varnish Blueberry-


This is a beautiful pastel blue colour nail varnish, that just brightens up your nails and make them look amazing! I love this colour and I also love the name! Even though summers practically over (not that we've really had one haha) it doesn't mean we can't have summery nails does it (: (:

Cherry Chapstick Under £2.00-


 This is something I have used since I was a little kid, the only bad thing is I personally don't think its as cherry flavoured any more :( But other than that it seriously is the best lip care product ever, I always end up going back to this, its cheap, cheerful, and does the job! 

Sorry there's only a few items this month, next month there hopefully should be many more!!

Thank you

Not Going To Re-Purchase!

Seven products I will not be buying again-

Below are some random beauty items that I shall not be re-purchasing as in all honesty they are just not my cup of tea...



 Barry M Lipstick- Touch of Magic Green
It claims to change colour due to the alkaline level in your lips, unfortunately the colour for me was a very berry pink/red colour and just did not suit my skin tone at all, to be honest I really don't know why on earth i brought it in the first place???
Collection 2000 Lipstick- Pink Shock (2)
The lipstick is a much brighter pink than the one that shows up on camera, it is basically a very bright neon pink that would just make me look like a Barbie doll if I were to ever where it out, yet again I have no idea what made me buy this???
 Sleek Kajal Eyeliner- Nocturnal
The reason I wouldn't purchase this again is because quite frankly I don't really wear eyeliner that much and this is a massive stick of it, so its going to last me for ages anyway, but also because its not very pigmentated at all :(
 Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer
I know everybody raves about this concealer being amazing but in all honest I have had about 3 tubes of this concealer and at first I really did like it but then it started making my under-eyes look really dry and cakey which obviously I was not a big fan of, therefore this is now going in my bin :(
 Cherry Carmex
A lot of people I know absolutely love Carmex, but I just really can't get into it, I have really dry lips and this just only seemed to make them dryer, so unfortunately this gets a big thumbs down from me :( 
 Garnier BB Cream- Light
I'm just going to say it straight at first I thought ooo I really like this, but then when it had dried into my skin it had made me look a slight orange colour and also made me look like I had very oily skin where in reality I have mostly dryer skin /: /:
 No7 Colour Calming Primer- Corrects Redness
I brought this because a few months back I had a phase where I was very self-concious about the redness in my cheeks, so one Saturday me and my Mom went to the No7 counter in Boots and the lady recommend this to me, as you can see it is VERY green, it did not make the redness in my cheeks appear reduced and sometimes left a green tint to the skin, which unless your the Hulk is not a very good look, so all I can say is what a waste of money :(

All these opinions are just based on how they worked for me they may be amazing for you but for me they just didn't cut it :(

Beachy Nails?

NOTD-

This is just a quick post to show you my favourite nail polish at the moment...




This bright orange colour (even though the camera doesn't pick up the colour to well) is called 'Beach Party' and it is one of the Headkandi Models Own nail varnishes. It is quite a matte finish, however if you paint a clear coat over it, it will also give off a glossy finish and on the plus side it drives pretty fast too! By the way I am wearing two coats of the polish on the photos.

Thank you
