My Eyebrow Routine


Hey girlies,

Today I have for you my eyebrow routine, every time I go out I'm always stopped in the street and questioned about how I do my eyebrows.
So I have decided to put together a post on how I do them.
Let's begin...!

1. Firstly I start of by outlining my eyebrows with my MUA Eyebrow pencil in Brunette, I make sure that the line follows the shape of my natural brow and avoid lining the front and beginning of my brow.




2. Next I use my eyebrow pencil and fill in all the bald spots of my eyebrows by drawing short little lines instead of long stokes this makes it look a little more natural than as if I have no eyebrows and have created a whole new eyebrow.


3. After drawing the outline and filling in my bald spot I grab my concealer palette and my angled eyebrow brush and shape and clean up around my eyebrow, this gives my eyebrows that highlighted glowing look without it looking too much.




4. As you can see my brows are looking a little cray cray right now so I'm going to use my angled eyebrow brush and blend out the concealer, I pull the concealer down with the brush so that there isn't any harsh concealer lines and it is easier to blend out.
I then get a bit more concealer on my angled brush and apply it all over my eyelid this not only conceals but adds a base so that applying my eyeshadow is much easier and more smooth.
Using one of my old dried out mascaras I use the brush and brush out the beginning of my eyebrows this gives it that more faded look and doesn't make it look so harsh and square at the beginning.




5. And were all done!


So this is how I do my eyebrows, I know it's such a long process but I think the more you do it the quicker you get and it doesn't seem as long any more. I know my eyebrows still look pretty highlighted and uncompleted but once I put on my foundation I'll just use it and blend the concealer around it.

I hope this little tutorial helped and gave you a bit of a guide as to how to do your eyebrows and

Time for a change | New nails #2


Hey loves!

So I was suppose to publish this post ages ago but I've just been putting it off, but I have finally gotten around to doing it. so here we go...

Around 2 weeks ago I went and got a re-fill, some of you may know that I love getting my nails done and I get a re-fill like every 2-3 weeks.

Getting my nails done this time around I was looking to go for something really simple and without any type of design. Initially I wanted to go for a pastel lilac kind of colour and then I saw this colour that I thought was more of a grey-ish lilac colour.
 I was so stuck and didn't know which colour to go for so I asked my sister who I always go nail shop with and she was like go for the grey-ish lilac colour.

So I decided to go with the grey-ish lilac. once she finished painting my nails I looked at them and I loved them however, the colour was just grey the hint of lilac I was seeing had now vanished but I didn't really mind it.

I really love this colour and I definitely feel that it gives that Autumn/Winter kind of feel, also the feeling of a fresh set of new nails feel so good!




I hope you liked this post, don't forget to leave a comment and tell me what you think about this colour and what colour I should do next.

Thanks for reading!

Autumn/Winter Wishlist


Hey everyone!
Today I'm going to share with you some of the things I'm wishing to fill my closet with this Autumn/Winter, so let's begin!

Over the knee boots - I'm in desperate need of some over the knee black boots this winter, not only do i think they look absolutely amazing but they just add that autumnal/wintery look. A pair of over the knee boots would go really well with a pair of leggings and oversized jumper or some high-waisted jeans with a simple tee and leather jacket or faux fur coat.

Oversized jumper - An oversized jumper is a perfect item of clothing to have during the more colder days, I think I need a lot more cable knit type of oversized jumpers just because they're so easy to style and you can literally just throw it on with anything, you can wear jeans or leggings then just cover up with a leather jacket and infinity scarf or parka coat.

Bomber jacket - I NEED a bomber jacket, not want need. I just think their so stylish, so in right now and I feel that they just add that cool type of feel when you wear them. Although a bomber jackets is not really autumn/winter cause they're not that warm but I believe you can so easily just layer up underneath, I think I would sway more to wearing this in the autumn rather the cold winter.

Fur gilet - I originally wanted a fur coat but then I kinda felt like I looked a bit pimp-ish so I thought I would just aim to get a fur gilet that way I would look a bit less drowned by all the fur. I feel that having something fur is a must for autumn/winter as it's something comfy and keeps you warm. Finding an outfit to wear with a fur gilet is super easy as most of the time I think keeping it simple is the best so plain tops, jumpers skinny jeans or leggings are perfect.

Fluffy socks - I really want a pair of fluffy socks cause I think during the really cold nights when you just want to chill and snuggle up with a nice hot cup of hot chocolate in a big blanket having a pair of  fluffy socks is so needed, as not only can you wear them at home whilst your trying to chill but when your going out and you're wearing your boots or your wellies.

Tartan blanket scarf - I never really knew that there was such thing as a blanket scarf until I saw it on a youtuber's haul and I was just like I have to get me one of those, they just look so warm and comfy and their so nice to use when it's really cold and your not really dressed warm and have nothing to really help keep you warm this comes in handy cause you can just wrap it around you and cover yourself up a bit.

Fluffy robe - Believe it or not I actually don't own a robe which is actually weird because when I had one I loved it I use to wear it all the time and it use to keep me so warm and comfy. So now that winter is round the corner I really want another one and whilst looking around and shopping I saw this really cute fluffy one and have literally fallen in love, One thing I'm looking for when getting a new robe is a hood I really want one with a hood because I know it's going to keep me so warm.

So that's it for my Autumn/Winter wishlist, I know I haven't been that consistent with posting recently but I'm going to try my best.
I'll see you later and thanks for reading!

How I balance out college and blogging

Hey everyone,

I've got a different type of post for you guys today, today I'm going to tell you how I balance  out college and blogging and some tips on how you can do so too.

Now that I have started college I only have to go in three times a week, so that means I'm able to create a routine where Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the days I go to college and are focused on school work. then Tuesday, Thursday and the weekends are the days that I can use to work on my blog.

Having only three days to complete school work can be hard especially if you have more than one or have plenty of course work, but you have to remember to keep calm, not stress and stay focused, also you have to concentrate, so close the Twitter tab, the Blogger tab, the YouTube tab and all that other unnecessary tabs that have nothing to do with your school work, don't get side tracked just think about the time you'll have later to do what you want.

Some of the tips for you guys are:

  • Create a routine/timetable
  • Write and schedule as many posts as possible on your days off and on the weekends
  • Do homework early and as quickly as possible so you have more time to chill and join the chats on twitter (#fbloggers, #bbloggers, #fblchat)
  • Make note of new post ideas you come up with during the week, so you have something to blog about on your days off
  • Spread out post evenly through the week

  I hope these tips helped and gave you a bit of advice on how to balance school and blogging, give it a try and tell me what you think!

Thanks for reading!
