Foundation Review


Foundation : Max Factor - Miracle Touch Liquid Foundation

For a week I have been using the Max Factor: Miracle Touch Liquid Illusion Foundation.  I don't usually buy foundations but I wanted to try something different. It isn't a pump foundation, it's a pot foundation. They have a selection of shades but I don't think it was a wide range of shades; there was 4 shades of light-medium and only 1 of a dark shade. I would say its a medium coverage. For the first few days I really enjoyed this foundation, it my skin feel refreshed when i used it. But I realised during the day the foundation did start to wear off. I built 2 layers of foundation the next day but after a while it made the face look "cakey". I tried to even set the foundation with one layer of it but it made the foundation look "cakey" and the foundation wore off. When I applied the foundation to my face I found it hard to blend into the neck and face. I would not recommend this!

sweet & simple


You can look lovely without wearing designer clothes. I like to wear clothes that are simple but flattering. I don't go over the top with glitter and sequins, in my opinion they set a really bold statement. I tend to wear pastel/neutral colours. I think that if you wear something quite simple then you'll tend to look quite flattering:).

On the same idea of simple clothing, i love Taylor Swift (as a musician, i love her music and her simple clothing) Taylor's clothing is not making a bold statement, even though they are quite simple they still make her look quite flattering i must admit.




 So as you see in these images of Taylor; her clothes are really simple with a few patterns or lace but it pays off in the end. I would recommend that you just don't go for the higher branded clothing, go for slightly cheaper clothing too. You can shop in new look if you really must, its not ridiculously cheap but i guess its not that expensive either (guess its in the middle then!) I also think that finding a good pair of shoes and a hair style that goes well with the outfit will make the whole outfit tie together:).

Strawberry Lace Hand Soap Review

Hand Soap Review..

If you know me, then you know that I like to smell lovely. If you don't know me then I would like to say, I need to smell lovely everyday. I like smelling like different fruits, I usually go to the body shop to purchase their products I usually purchase:
  • Strawberry shower gel/cream, the bottle size I usually get is 750ml - It costs £12
  • Strawberry body polish - costs £5
  • Strawberry body butter - costs £15
I know that they are the strawberry products from the body shop but I do have a whole collection of different smells. If I had to choose the best smell then it would be the strawberry collection. As I like the smell 'strawberry' so much I have been hunting high and low for a hand soap that has a real, long-lasting strawberry smell.

The hand soap - Cussons Carex, Strawberry Laces hand wash.


This product didn't cost much when I brought it. It cost around £1.50 at the time. This product has lasted me for a month now. I would say that the size of the bottle is slightly larger than any other hand soap. This product really does smell like strawberries. (strawberry laces according to the bottle.) The soap has a very long-lasting smell. I've nearly ran out of the hand soap I have to go out an buy some more! You only need a little to apply to your hands - this is good because the soap can last a long time.
If I had to give it a rate out of 5 - 
this deserves a 4/5 :) 

- I have recently purchased the "Chocolate Orange" hand soap from that soap collection, it smells lovely:). I'm just waiting to finish my Strawberry Laces hand soap so i can begin using my Chocolate Orange one!:)

the first post.

This is my first blog post, ah! I've decided to create this blog from after a long time of thinking about creating a blog. I have read other blogger's blogs and they seem amazing. I hope my blog will be as good as there's but i doubt that. 

I'm not afraid to speak my mind. It's my blog I can say what I want basically. I may be quiet when you first meet me but when we become (good) friends you can see what I'm really like. No, I'm not two-faced, even though I sound like it. I'm only quiet because I'm around people I don't know. I know I don't know anyone on here but I can say what I want, as no one knows me on here.

On here, I would love/like to blog about:
  • myself, including what I like and dislike
  • beauty, beauty blogs have inspired me to write my own reviews on beauty products
  • my views on the world e.g. school, and how much I hate it
I just hope I'll have enough time to blog about things as I have to do a lot of coursework for the subjects I have taken.
