So a couple of weeks ago I was scrolling through bloglovin’ and I found this blog post by Porcelain Beauty, which is called The Seven Deadly Sins Of Beauty tag. And I thought I’d go a head and do it as well. So here are my answers to this tag.

Greed: What is your inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?

My inexpensive beauty item has to be my concealer probably? I own the Collection Long Lasting Concealer, which costs £4 something so that’s probably my cheapest, but it’s the best concealer I’ve every used. My most expensive is probably either my Urban Decay or Mac Lipsticks as they’re both priced at £15.

Wrath: What beauty products do you have a love/ hate relationship with? What product has been the hardest to get?

I haven’t really had any products that have been hard to get a hold of but I will say that one product at the moment is definitely impossible to get a hold of and that is the Collection Long Lasting Concealer in the shade fair. Every shop I’ve gone to for the last 4-5 months hasn’t had it and I’ve been looking everywhere for it. Turns out that Superdrug and boots haven’t had it in stock at all due to repackaging or something. A product I have a love hate relationship is bronzer, because I’m so pale bronzer can look muddy on my skin and can just look completely wrong, but at the same time there’s days where It can just look really good on and give my face some shape to it.

Gluttony: What are your most delicious products?

One of my most delicious products is the Bourjois Bronzer, it smells so good it smells like coconut it smells amazing! Another product is the new Revlon HD Lipsticks they smell like those candy hearts you get.

Sloth: What beauty products do you neglect due to laziness.

Primers, I own the body shop primer and I tend to skip out on it unless I’m having a long day or if it tends to be really hot outside (Which it rarely is in the UK.) to keep my make up on in the heat, but apart from that I’ll tend to skip it.

Pride: what beauty product gives you the most confidence?

One product that gives me more confidence is my L’Oreal Superstar Mascara because I have really small eyelashes so this product makes my eyelashes so much more volume and it gives them so much more length.

Lust: What products are you currently lusting over?

One product I’m lusting over is the Urban Decay Naked Palettes. I’ve wanted them for quite a while but I’m really lazy when it comes to eye make up so I usually skip eye shadows so that’s why I don’t own any of them at the moment. And I’m lusting over any products from Mac as Mac is one of my favourite brands for make up.

Envy: What items would you most like to receive as a gift?

I would love to receive the Hourglass Ambient lighting blush, or the Hourglass Modernist Eye shadow palette, as it is absolutely stunning. Or maybe I would love to receive the Nars Sheer glow foundation.

So this was my Seven Deadly Sins Of Beauty answers. I tag any of you to do it, if you end up doing this then leave a link in the comment and I’ll read some of them.

The Spring Tag

So I found this post on Hey Sparkle  and I thought I’d do this as well so here is The Spring Tag. I hope you guys enjoy.

1. What are you looking forward to the most in Spring?

I’m most excited for it to warm up but with the way the weather is at the moment I feel like it’s never going to warm up, but I’m also looking forward for the lighter mornings and lighter evenings It makes it more comforting for walking from college on my late finishes.

  

2. What's your favourite thing about Spring?

I love the change in mood everyone seems to seem somewhat happier since the weather starts to change and the flowers and trees all starting to come to life again

3. What is your go to Spring makeup look? 

My spring make up look is just really fresh and natural looking and foundation will be dewy with a nice light pink lipstick or lip-gloss, I tend to go for lip-glosses in the spring because I find it looks quite cute and fresh looking especially after wearing a lot of dark berry colours on my lips for the majority of the winter. 

4. What are some of your favourite clothing items for Spring?

I usually like to wear white tops or nice grey top/ jumpers with jeans but I also like to start wearing denim jackets during this time but sometimes a leather jacket and hoodie if it’s raining and a bit cold!

5. Favourite shoes for Spring?

Converse or Vans I would love to get myself a nice pair of flats but I think you can’t go wrong with converse they go with everything.

6. Favourite Spring drink?

I don’t tend to change my drinks for spring but I do love summer fruits, tropical juice and the raspberry and apple juicy water they’re amazing!

7. Bright neon or pastel nails?

Pastels all the way I’m not a fan of neon colours, I don’t like bright colours and I tend to go for monochrome colours or dark colours so pastel is a nice in-between so it’s not too ‘in your face’

8. Favourite flower in spring?

I quite like tulips but my favourite flowers are orchids but it’s not really a spring flower is it?

9. Favourite perfume for Spring?

I love the Marc Jacobs Daisy but I also love The Body Shop Japanese Cherry Blossom Fragrance Spray it’s such a gorgeous scent so fresh and florally.

10. Favourite hairstyle for Spring?

I don’t tend to do much with my hair so I usually just straighten it or I’ll like get my front parts of my hair and pull them back and pin them back and leave the rest of my hair down.

So this was my spring time tag answers, I tag any of you to do it, if you end up doing this then leave a link in the comment and I’ll read some of them, I hope you guys liked it I’ll post again next week.

The Me-Time Tag

So a couple of weeks ago I was looking through bloglovin’ and I found this tag on someone’s blog and unfortunately I forgot to make a note of who’s blog it was on and I couldn’t find the blog it was on but this is the Me-time tag and I hope you guys enjoy reading it.

1. What do you watch or read during me-time?

I tend to watch more films or TV programs during me-time so it’ll probably be something like Pretty Little Liars, Vampire Diaries or maybe some films like The Hunger Games, Divergent or maybe something that is more of a drama like If I Stay. 

2. What do you wear during me-time?

Usually my me-time will be on a night time so I’ll tend to wear some pyjamas and depending on how warm it is will depend on if I wear shorts or long pj bottoms.

3. What are your me-time beauty products? 

I love to use Lush products or Soap and glory so I’ll tend to have a bath and I’ll use a Lush bubble bar or one of their bath bombs and after I’ll use some of the Soap and Glory moisturisers. 

4. Current favourite nail polish? 

I’m going to say Essie I’ve been wearing them a lot recently but I can’t choose I’m going to go with either Bahamma Mama or A-List.  

 

5. What do you eat/drink during me-time?

I think it depends on what mood I’m in but sometimes I’ll have some popcorn that’s usually my go to but sometimes I’ll just eat something as simple as cereal or maybe something more unhealthy, it just depends.

 

6. Current favourite candle?

I haven’t really got a favourite candle at the moment but my current ones that I’m burning is an Ikea one which is called ‘Sinnlig’ and it’s a lavender scented candle but I also havemy Yankee Candle which is the scent ‘Sunlight On Snow’ which I absolutely love! 

 

7. Do you ever have outdoorsy me-time?

no I prefer to stay cosy and comfortable during me-time so I’ll tend to stay in the house and in my room during it.

8. Would you ever go see a movie alone?

I don’t think I have the guts to do that to be honest I can just manage eating alone in somewhere like subway or costa alone but I don’t think I could go and see a film I’d feel too awkward.

 

9. Favourite online store?

I’m going to say either Newlook or Boohoo I absolutely love them websites I always find things I love and everything I’ve ordered from these two shops I’ve loved a lot! 

10. What else do you during me-time?

I usually sit and watch some films or tv but I’ll sometimes watch youtube videos or maybe Netflix along with sitting on the internet or listening to music, it just depends on the type of mood I’m in.

So this was my me-time tag I hope you guys enjoyed this and I tag anyone that wants to do it, if you decide to write this leave a link in the comments or even leave answers in the comments.

The Christmas Tag!

it's officially December so that means everything literally becomes about Christmas! it's already the 6th of December and i have my christmas decorations up and i have made my room quite christmassy (i bought Christmas bedding, have candles, a 3ft Led christmas tree and of course some fairy lights up.) i love this time of year and i was looking through Bloglovin' when i came across THIS POST on Milk Bubble Tea's blog and i thought it was so cute and to get into the Christmas Spirit i thought i would also do this tag, so here are my answers to the tag. 

1. What is your favourite Christmas Movie/s?

Oh god, there’s so many to choose from I really love the polar express I only watched that for the first time last year but it has to be my favourite it’s so cute, I also like the home alone's well I’ve seen one and I enjoyed it so I can’t wait to watch the rest of them this year! Oh and how can I forget I love the Grinch I usually watch this on Christmas Eve it’s just a nice film to make you feel Christmassy.

2. Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?

Always on Christmas day, but on Christmas Eve I do get one present which is usually a pair of Pj’s or when I was younger I used to get like bath things like when I was 4 like toys or something fun.

3. Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?

Yeah I do, my favourite has to be last year’s Christmas so I basically got up and I opened all of my presents and my mam and  dad opened theirs and I had finished opening them and I was really pleased with what I got like I got my camera (Nikon D7000) I got some make up, perfume the usual and basically It got to about 1pm and obviously all presents were open I had seen family and it was just time to relax around and mess around with my camera and my dad showing me how to use it and stuff, after that I went to get a drink from the kitchen and my mam told me my dad wanted to see me in the sitting room so I went back in and there was this white box on the floor and basically it was a Apple Macbook Pro with retina display and I was stunned for the rest of the day it was such a surprise and it’s one of my favourites.

4. favourite festive food?

I’m not really sure there’s not much festive food I eat usually the only thing traditional is the Christmas dinner so I’m just going to go with that haha.

5. Favourite Christmas gift ?

either my camera I got last year or my macbook it’s one of the two.

6. Favourite Christmas scent?

I haven’t really got a favourite anything remotely Christmassy and I’m happy but probably the yankee candle scent which is called Sunlight on Snow not too sure if that can be classed as a Christmas scent but it’s snow and it’s a one that comes out at Christmas but it’s my favourite.

7. Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions?

Usually I just have a relaxed day and watch Christmas films or anything that is on tv along and usually on the night time I watch the Shrek deck the halls which is always on BBC One every year and for my tea that night my mam, dad and I have a Chinese it’s a tradition we’ve always done.

8. What tops your tree?

MY mam always puts an Angel on top of the tree but I’d much prefer a star on the top I’m not sure why but I don’t really like having the angel on there.

9. As a kid what was the one (crazy, wild, extravagant) gift you always asked for but never received?
This is actually really hard because I can’t actually remember and I don’t really think I asked for anything massive for Christmas as a child I usually just asked for the usual Annabelle doll or the baby born stuff. I don’t think I’ve ever asked for something, which was really crazy or extravagant.

10. What's the best part about Christmas for you?
I think the best part is Christmas day when you spend time with your family and like the exchange of presents, I love it when I see my mam and dad open there presents and I know they love it when I open my presents and I think it’s one of the best times because you can make their day by getting them something completely unexpected and it can make them so happy.

So these were my answers to the Christmas tag, if anyone wants to do the tag then here are a list of the questions and link it in the comments as i'd love to read some.
