Hey guys,
Sorry I didn't put up a blog post on Friday, there was some family drama so that has taken over my mind for the last few days.

Today i will be reviewing the 'Barry M Naturals Eyeshaddow Pallette'. I am definatly a natural look girl so I knew I had to go for this one instead of the 'Smoking Hot Pallette' which contains more brighter colours.

I was definatly suprised with how much I liked this pallette. It has a range of colours which vary from a basic white to a charchoal colour. It isn't as pigmented as the 'NAKED' palettes but, in my opinion, it's just as good.

I think this pallette could be used on a day to day basis or even for going out in the evening as it contains both light and dark eyeshaddows.

I tend to use this pallette for a smokey eye look, which I do my blending the darker colours together. I also think it's a good idea to use the white colour for just underneath your eyebrows to make them look more prominent and to give them a more hilighted look. I also apply the white colour on the inner corners of my eyes in a sort of V shape as it makes your eyes pop and look bigger.

Thanks for reading :)

Hey guys,
I decided recently that I wanted to write a blog, this blog to be exact, so I thought it would be a good idea to tell you (if anyone is actually reading this) why.

For quite a few years now I have always been considered the quiet one, the shy one and I felt like I didn't have much of a voice. I thought people would laugh or not take me seriously if I just came out of nowhere and started giving everyone makeup and fashion advice, so I decided to write it on here instead.

I got teased a lot in school for being a plain Jane, to put it lightly. I didn't wear that much makeup, a little bit of mascara and powder occasionally, and I wore my hair in the same way every day. I didn't have the confidence until recently to try out new hair styles and to play around with makeup so I didn't know how how much I loved it until now.

I tried writing a diary once a few years ago and, to be honest, it didn't go very well. I was always worried that my mum would stumble upon it or that one of my friends would find it when they came over so in the end I just quit. I'm going to treat this blog like an online diary, a place where I can share all my thoughts and feelings about makeup, hair or things that are on my mind at the time. It will also be a place where I don't have to try to impress anyone or pretend to be someone that I'm not. Who knows? Maybe we will have a lot in common.

I'm not going to hold back on what I'm going to say, like I would in 'real' life, so if anyone wants to join me, feel free. Let me know in the comments what you think. :)

Thanks for reading :)

P.S. I haven't quite figured out how to work the layout of this blog properly so sorry if it's a bit miss matched :/

Hey guys,
Today I'm going to be reviewing a foundation that I discovered recently called the Rimmel London - Wake Me Up Foundation.

What I love about this product is that it's very light on your skin so it doesn't feel like you are wearing tons of makeup which to me is a good thing. There's nothing worse than being smothered in thick makeup that you just can't wait to take off at the end of the day.

It comes in various different skin tones; Ivory, True Ivory, Beige, and a few others similar to these.

Another good thing about this product is that it's very inexpensive, £5.99 in Boots UK, so most people should be able to afford it.

Here's a link: http://www.boots.com/en/Rimmel-Wake-Me-Up-Make-Up-Foundation-30ml_1246748/
