Would You Rather? Beauty Edition






1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up?

I would totally prefer to go out with messy hair and nice makeup as I think with a good amount of makeup on if your hairs a bit messy it doesn't really matter to much as you still look presentable.

2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?


Shave my eyebrows you can easily draw them back on or have them tattooed on much easier then having to apply false eyelashes everyday.

3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?


Mac 1000% because there isn't a Sephora in the UK lol!

4.Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?


Lipgloss/Lipliner look

5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?


This is such a hard one as they are both pet hates and I would hate either but if I really had to choose I would go for the overdone blush because after a while it would wear off

6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?


Omg do I have to pick they both horrify me, I would never wear either but if I really had to it would be the MC Hammer pants

7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?


Really weird tan lines Ive had the bad orang-y spray tan not so long ago and it was absolutely awful and wore off with really weird tan lines anyway.

8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair colour?


Bad hair colour it would be a hell of a lot easier to sort out then a bad haircut that could takes years to sort out depending on how bad it is.

9.Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?


Twitter omg I love youtube far to much!

10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara? 

This is impossible! It would have to be mascara because you can always put falsies on but no make up brushes would be a disaster!

Hope you enjoyed this Beauty Tag and let me know what your answers are in the comments I would love to get to know you all more!

Broken Dreams Part 1

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog I hope you enjoy reading this. Its the first part of a short story I am writing. I've never done anything like this before so please let me know what you think in the comments below.

Chapter One Emelia's Point Of View 

" Emelia come on your going to be late!" Mum bellowed from downstairs, it's like she doesn't understand how I can't go to my first ever day at college and look a total mess. My house is literally a Mad zone its only a tiny four bedroom, well my rooms more like a closet,terraced house and It's bad enough she's moved in her new fancy man Alex and his snotty twin daughters Candice and Melissa, I swear Mum loves them more then me. There only 13 but think they are so much older and taking over all my personal space like hello this is my house! I do sit and wonder though what it must be like to have a twin, another you someone by your side all the time. Then there's my gorgeous little brother Cameron his only six months old and still in my Mum's room, he's her and Alex's baby. I preferred it before he moved in and it was just Mum, Cammie and me.
  "EMELIA COME ON! Your making everybody late poor Alex will be late for work and the girls for school COME ON!" Eurgh Alex this Alex that! "I'M COMING! YOUR BRATTY BABY KEPT ME UP ALL NIGHT" I didn't mean that I loved Cammie so much he literally was the apple of my eye. I decided to wear a pair of jeans that actually still fit me, I've put so much weight on over the school holidays hardly anything fits anymore, a baby pink top with lace round the top and my Pink butterfly sandals with my gorgeous new bag that I managed to persuade Mum to buy me from Primark. After finally getting through the obstacles in my way i.e. the bratz mess all over the floor I made it into my mums room to kiss my little Cammie. He looked so gorgeous laying all wrapped up with no care in the world, I could stand and stare at him all day. " Jessica! She's in your room waking Cameron up" At the door was brat number 1 Candice, i pick up my bag and quietly close the door giving her a dirty look before making my way downstairs.
  "At Last! What was taking you so long? You better not have woke cameron up his been up all night!? " Why does she always take her side over mine! " Why are you listening to her I went in and gave him a kiss! My god you would rather I wasn't here wouldn't you so you could carry on your perfect little life!" Tears tickled my face once again for the thousandth time since HE moved in! " Don't be so ridiculous Em and go to college! Good Luck Sweetheart" I move closer and hug her why can't things just go back to how they always were or even better back to a time where my dad was in it. I don't remember my dad at all, I've never even seen a photo of him and Mum won't talk about him at all. All I have is a ring that I never take off, a gorgeous 10 ct gold ring with a small diamond in the middle with my initial it even looks like it should belong to a set, the gruesome twosome are forever trying to get their hands on it!
  Alex drives a ford focus you know the really old kind it barely fits us all in before let alone now Cameron's here! I squeeze into the back next to the Gruesome Twosome's Best Friend Tasha who  I swear is worse then them if that's possible! " Like not being funny Miss scruffy pants who's never going to get a boyfriend you've not only made me and cand late but Tash too your so out of order!" Miss Scruffy Pants really? You try living on my non existent budget! "Shut up you stupid ugly monster". "JESSICA DON'T YOU EVER SPEAK TO THE GIRLS LIKE THAT AGAIN OR YOU CAN GET OUT AND WALK! I'm kind enough to give you a lift I do not appreciate you abusing my little girls" OMG as if, was he completely deaf to what she had just said but once again it's me in the wrong. I wait till the car comes to a stop at the traffic lights and jump out the car, it wasn't too far from here to my new college and a moment longer in that car I would have gone crazy. Not once did he even shout after me just silence before speeding off.
  My new college was ten times bigger then my old secondary school and standing outside of it now was so scary, I was the only one of my friends to go to this college the rest stayed on for sixth form but Mum wanted me to go here so I could pick Cameron up after nursery each day. Finally, I found my form room I opened the door slowly nervous of who was inside the room. A group of boys are obsessing over three plastic looking girls in the corner who are just looking at me dirty looks, one of the girls slightly smiling before whispering in their clique. At the front of the room by the window is a empty chair next to a quiet girl I sit down in silence. "Hi,I'm Grace you know that lot are talking about you don't you" I look behind my shoulder and notice them staring while one of the boys is on the phone "Nah seriously babe it's well freaky it's like a geeky you...seriously Saph" At that I turn and look away " I'm Emilia, Let them it doesn't matter" Mrs Ferrows walks in a tall stern looking woman and starts taking the register "It's because you freakily look like Sapphire the queen bee"  I look over at Grace why would I look so freakily like this girl at that moment I turn my attention to the classroom door and all of the sudden it's like I'm looking at my reflection or my Mum's it's like this girl is a slimmer, prettier and perfect version of myself.

New Years Resolutions

Hello everyone! I am so excited to be back in the blogging world it has been far to long since I have last posted, I have been super busy over the last few months and have had no time what so ever to blog. This year I am going to be posting a post every Sunday and Wednesday. Before I started to blog again I wanted to brainstorm some ideas for new posts. I hope you have all been well I can not believe we are in the middle of January already time is flying by! Christmas this year was lovely and I got spoilt rotten I will be posting about what I got soon, I know its late but it's better late then never!

Now that's over with and your all a bit more up to date, my first post is all about what new years resolutions I have made this year so I hope you all enjoy reading this!

1) To blog more and regularly

This is something I really struggle with as you know I can go months without blogging, sometimes because I have completely run out of ideas or majority of the time it's simply the fact that I haven't got the time now I work full time. I'm going to make myself more organised this year and have a proper schedule for posting.

2) Make a Youtube Channel

This is something I am dying to try out I have already got a channel but I literally made one post. This time I want to go all out and make it the best I can which is going to involve a lot of thinking and planning but I'm determined to get there.

3) To go abroad on holiday

This might sound like a strange one but believe it or not I have never been abroad and to be honest it hasn't ever been something I was particularly interested in until now. I really have the urge to go!!! At the moment I am really fancying the idea of Barcelona or Italy. Where would you guys recommend?

4) Loose Weight

Now this one appears every year but I really am determined this year I know I can do it! i've done it before it just takes a lot of patience and determination, and to be fair I have already lost 12lb and I only started last Wednesday!

5) Learn to drive

I am determined to pass my test this year it will be so much more freedom and it will be so lovely to go wherever I want with ease and not waiting around in the cold for buses or trains.

6) Save Money

This is another one that always appears on my new years resolutions and I fail miserably at but you never know I might actually achieve this.

7) Get a Boyfriend 

Well now this is cheesy but it's about time Mr Prince Charming comes out of hiding surely?!?! lol

I hope 2017 is good to you all and let me know what your resolutions are in the comments and don't forget to follow!


Lots of Love

My 2016 To Do List

Welcome back to my blog! So this is a little late as we are already well into February but better late then never. There are so many things I would like to accomplish and do this year so I thought it would be a nice idea to share it with you all! Let me know in the comments below what your plans are for 2016!

1) Loose Weight

My biggest aim for 2016 is to loose weight. Last year I managed to loose 2 stone so I am really hoping to shift the last two stone this year. I would really love to be a size 8 again! I do already feel better about myself which is great but i do think a few more pounds will help my confidence loads.

2) Save Money

Now I always put this on my list every year and fail miserably! I just love to spend money and yes it usually is on makeup! This year though now that I am working harder I intend to put a little bit of money aside each month for a Apple Mac Laptop.

3) Pass My Theory Test

I have literally been putting this off for years I am literally at the point with my actual driving where I could take my practical test so its really annoying. I am determined to actually take the test this year so I can finally get on the road with my car (which I bought two years ago). 

4) To get a Promotion

Now this time last year I would never have dreamt putting this down on my to do list as to be honest I  never thought it would be
possible or something I was interested in, but now I really am hopeful to better myself at my current job. I've worked so hard the past few months and things are starting to look good!

5) Do Regular Exercise

I'll be honest I hate exercise it has never been my strongest fortay but I have been loving Vicky Pattisons DVD. The DVD is so good and you really feel yourself being worked and the biggest plus for me is that it is only 10 minutes long! So I am determined to start doing this everyday and see if I notice a difference in my fitness levels.

6) Visit Newcastle

A big must for 2016 is to of course go and visit Newcastle like I have for the past two years! As you might probably have guessed by now I absolutely love Newcastle and could stay there forever. This year I want to explore more as there is still lots I haven't done.
 
7) Say YES more!

Now this is a big thing for me I always think about the what ifs so this year I am going to make sure I just say Yes to everything and at least give it a go. Like going out with my friends more and experiencing new things.

I hope you enjoyed today's post and don't forget to let me know what you plan to do this year in the comments below.

Lots of Love

Top Lipcolours I'm Loving Right Now

Hello everybody welcome back to my blog thank you so much for coming back if you have visited before and if this is your first time then a massive welcome! I hope you have all been well I have literally been so busy the past few months with work that my blog has had to take a back seat but I intend from now to priotise my blog to as I love writing this! So today's post is all about the lipsticks and glosses I am loving right now from Too Faced to Urban Decay. I really hope you enjoy this post and I will be posting a drugstore one soon to!


1) Givenchy Rouge Interdit Vinyl Shade 16 Noir Révélateur £24.00

I was literally so excited when I heard about this lipstick and it has proven to be a massive success as it is sold out nearly everywhere in shade 16. If you are looking for one feelunique have some instock here! I have just ordered mine and I am so excited to recieve it so watch out for my blog review!  Shade 16 is basically a black lipstick that creates a different look on every woman, I can not wait to see what colour mine goes! This unique enhancer can also be used as a top coat on any other lipstick to intensify its shade.


2) MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour £21.00

I am not one to usually go for lipgloss as I find they don't last very long and you have to keep applying them every five seconds so I was a bit dubious trying this. Last Saturday after watching Emily Canhams review on youtube on them I decided to give them a go and OMG I am so glad I did. I ordered Mademoiselle a orangey nude and Divine Divine which is a gorgeous baby pink. The colours are very pigmented and literally come out on your lips the same colour as the bottle. When you first apply the colour its just like lipgloss but very quickly dries to a lovey matte lipstick that lasts all day without smudging. These are by far the best lipcolours I have ever tried!



3) MAC Velvetease Lip pencil £17.50

This is yet another new release from MAC and I for one can not wait to try them. They look amazing and are a lot chunkier then normal lip pencils and are availble in the most beautiful shades from reds to nudes. MAC states that they are rich and matte and have all the colour impact of a lipstick. I really want to get the shades Tease me, Promise Me, Reddy to go and Velvet Teen.


4) Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Lipstick £16.00

I am loving Urban Decays collabriation with Gwen Stefani so i was so excited to hear about her new lipstick range. I'm particually excited to try the shade Ex Girlfriend as it is a beautiful shimmering nude shade so I thought it was ideal for work and casual daytime look. I will be posting a review on this when I recieve mine!





I really hope you have enjoyed reading my post on my top lipstick/glosses and if you like it please remeber to give it a like and subscribe to my post. If you haven't all ready please check out my Youtube channel here!

Lots of Love

Top Black Friday Offers

Hello everyone! I hope your all well and are getting into the christmas sprit, I can't believe this time next month it will all be over again! So today, I thought I would write a blog on the best beauty buys Black Friday and Cyber Monday have to offer! I've focused mainly on Boots and Debenhams as they have the best buys!

1) Debenhams

Bare Minerals Limited Edition Original Foundation Get Started Kit £35.00

This is a amazing bargain for either yourself or as a Christmas present. It is the ultimate starter kit for Bare Minerals and I absolutly love it. This set leaves your face looking natural and gives a amazing glow unlike many which make your skin look inches thick as the saying goes 'less is more' and I couldn't agree more! If you have never used Bare Minerals before then this is the perfect starting block it comes with a SPF 15 Foundation (you can choose between 4 shades), the orginal mineral veil, warmth all over face colour and 3 brushes plus a step by step DVD if your unsure what to do. If people are interested I will upload a video on my youtube channel showing you how to apply the products. It's worth buying now as it's original price is £55.


2) Boots

Phillips Sonicare Diamond clean rechargable toothbrush £89.99

WOW! Now this brush looks amazing and I am dying to buy myself one! If anyone has one please let me know what you think in the comments below! I know it's just a toothbrush but it sounds so amazing....I no right calm down Sophie it's just a toothbrush! The toothbrush comes in four diffent colours, black, pink (my personal fave), white and purple. The toothbrush comes with a timer so you know how long you are brushing your teeth for so they are getting the reccomend brushing time, it even bleeps every 30 seconds so you know its time to move to another part of your mouth. How cool it that! The tooth brush comes with 5 different settings which is impressive in itself, the first is the basic clean which is just the standerd mode, Secondly is the white mode which removes surface stains to whiten teeth, Thirdly is the polish mode which brightens and polishes teeth to bring out their natural brilliance, Fourthly is the gum care mode which gently stimulates and massages gums and lastly is the sensitive mode which is a extra gentle mode for sensitive teeth. This is a massive reduction as the brush is usually £249.99



Babyliss Curl secret £89.99

I've been dying to try these out ever since they come out a couple of years ago but have always found them a bit pricy but finally they have been reduced so I think I may have to treat myself. I'm useless with curling my hair with straightners so this would be ideal for me!  If anyone has these please let me know what you think!

Real Techniques Starter kit £10.99

I was so excited by this offer as I love Real Technique Brushes and they are at an amazing price for Black Friday! You get five different eye brushes and they usually retail for £21.99. If you love Real Techniques keep your eye out at ASDA as they are going on Special from the 26th!






SensatioNail Special Starter Kit £35.00

OMG! I was so excited to see this set had gone in to Boots Black Friday again this year, I unfortuntely missed out last year so I just had to purchase it this year as soon as I saw it! The set usually retails for £70.00 and only goes down once a year for christmas! Once I recieve mine I will be posting a blog post and youtube video so stay tuned! The set includes a Pro LED Lamp, 2 nail polishes Morrocan Rouge and Gold Glitter, Base and Top coat, cleanser, primer, 88 nail sheilds and 12 wipes and buffer. They are suppose to last two weeks so I will let you know my results!
