Blogmas day 1!!



Blogmas Day 1

Yay it officially the countdown to christmas I'm already writing this a week and a half in advance but I definetely feel in the christmas mood. So for today post I am going to tell you my tips for wearing glitter. This time of year we do gravitate towards the sparkly things because if you can't wear glitter at christmas well when can you wear it!!    

I feel that prep is so important when wearing glitter as you want it to stay on your on eyes and not fall on your face. I would suggest using the urban decay primer's as even through they are pretty pricey they are some of the best. However l'oreal do a cheaper option which is my opinion isn't as good but it do the job. 


Also applying a shadow base is also a good idea as then the glitter has more of to grab on to. You can either high-end or lower-end with these product's as brands like Chanel luminous long wear eye shadow's do brilliant colours or if you are on a budget the maybelline colour tattoo are a brilliant alternative I know I talk about these a lot however they do deserve all the credit they get. 



For eyeshadow this time of year I tend to turn to my Urban Decay naked 2 palette as it has a brilliant mix of matte and shimmer's so you can really create that smoky dramatic for that christmas party!!


















And my last tip is to apply you eyeshadow before your foundation and concealer as this means that you can sweep any fall out away before applying your base so that it doesn't get stuck.

Always remember where we came from

Over the past couple of months I feel that my body has let me down in many ways. It made me ill out of blue which meant I had to build myself up again which I wasn't planning to do. However after doing this I've know realised what's important, after having this blog for nearly 6 years and posting about beauty and my story it's important to remember why I do what I do. I was at a family event yesterday, and after speaking to one of my relatives who actually reads this blog, I suddenly realised that I've kind of lost touch with why I do, what I do. My story is unique and I am very lucky to have a physical condition but still be able to do what I love. That's partly why I set this up in the first place, is to show that even through you have something that could potentially hold you back that doesn't mean that it should. Having cerebral palsy and epilepsy has had it challenges for sure, however it also shown me the strength I have. I think in the day and age...

top 5 nude lips

Top 5 nude/ neutral lips  My first one is probably the most expensive of my five and it's the Clarins instant lip perfector. This product is kind of light a natural gloss which a slight colour. The scent of this product is just amazing it smells like vanilla and I just love it!! Like I said before it's the most expensive one at £18.00. My next one is from maybelline and if you saw my post earlier in the week then you may have already seen this but this is probably the most bold colour of the five but still very wearable. This is the maybelline colour sensational in petal pink. I really like this colour because it's not quite matte but it so nearly is. My third one is from rimmel and it's called nude pink. Shade name wise I think that this is quite disappointing as a nude pink I think of being a your lips but better, however this lipstick has quite a orangery undertone. The finish of this lipstick is quite glittery and glossy so ...

Soap and glory mini gift set's Every year soap and glory come out with some amazing christmas that you definitely get your money's worth. This is actually last year bag but I have put in the bag the product's that You get in the set for this year. I personally love these set's because they are so easy to travel with and because they are so small you can take everything you need with you. The set this year is called bright and bubbly and it comes in a box, which personally I prefer the bag as you can also used for travelling. The set retails for £10 which I think is amazing value as you get 4 products and a shower flower thing (what are they called?).
