Heya!

This week I thought I'd do a little post to let you know what I've been up to do as its coming to end of this month. January has been a very busy and hectic month for me but one of the things I really enjoying was a super relaxing spa day at centre parcs! We went for my friends 18th birthday and it was so lovely I thought I'd share a little bit about it with you guys!
 



We went in the afternoon so we could have a little wander around Centre parcs first! So when we arrived we took a little stroll to the Centre parcs winter wonderland which was really cute! I love cute little winter displays and Centre parcs was the perfect location for it! There were reindeer's, lit up Christmas trees, and cute displays! Can I also just add I can't even tell you how excited Centre parcs makes me, it is just so amazing! Its basically like being in a luxury version of nature. Trees and leaves everywhere and it just makes me happy to be honest! 

Oh and I forgot to add there were around six of us that went which made it super fun! After our little adventure around Centre parcs we went to warm up and have a lovely meal at Hucks bar and grill. I had grilled salmon which was so yummy! We then all sang happy birthday to Ella and even the princess joined in haha! 

 After we were done at the restaurant it was spa time! Yay! We got in our robes and got ready! The Centre parcs we went to has an amazing spa with luxurious facilities so I was really excited. The first room we all went in was somewhere to rejuvenate our feet! We then went in all other kinds of rooms, steam rooms, rain rooms, saunas, ice rooms and all sorts! All the rooms where themed one of my favourites was the blossom room! They were all so calm and relaxing. The spa also had an outdoors heated swimming pool as well as water beds and relaxation hammock rooms. It was so amazing! I'm so glad i got to spend it with my favourite girls! Before the end of the day we also shared some lovely chocolate cake together to celebrate Ella's 18th! A truly wonderful day!

I hope you all have a had some good memories this month too! Sorry its been just a short post this week because I have been very busy with deadlines but never the less thank you for reading!

Heya!

I’m back again! This week I wanted to share with you what I am inspired by. Now this is always changing and I am inspired by lots of things but at the moment I have been looking into the concept of personality for part of my textiles theme and recently I have been really inspired by confetti crowd.






So who are confetti crowd? Well they are a girl gang of creativities and they have a super sassy and bold style. Confetti crowd is made up of five unique individuals, Heidi, Lulu, Heli, Tiger and Cheyenne. Each of them brings something different to the crowd. Heidi is a singer/songwriter, Lulu is a fashion designer, Heli is owner of sassy world, Tiger is a fashion photographer and Cheyenne is a DJ and presenter. They are also all fashion bloggers who are making their mark around the world. They even create YouTube videos and have their own website.

Confetti Crowd is really well known for their bright, bold and unique dress sense. This was something which I was really interested by. Without even knowing them their eccentric style immediately introduces them and their personalities.

The confetti crowd may be well known for their bright and crazy clothes but it’s not just their jobs that are different. All of them have their own unique identity within their style. The confetti crowd often refer to them as sassy spice girls and they have their own personality for each member.  


Tiger- cowgirl confetti

Heidi- Rainbow confetti


Lucy- sassy confetti


Cheyenne- Ghetto confetti


Helena- Vintage confetti


What I love about Confetti Crowd is that they completely ignore fashion rules yet they are some of the most fashionable girls. I mean clashing prints was once a big no, but the confetti crowd girl’s completely ignore this rule and their clothes look 10x more exciting and fun; and who said that bright colours were only for summer? Well that certainly doesn’t apply for confetti crowd. They are not afraid to layer up multiple statement items and trends too! The confetti crowd girls wear clothes from all eras but still look on trend and always stylish. Their confidence in their clothing creates a powerful girl power image and showcases there bright and vibrant personalities before you even get to know them.
They dare to be different and this is something which initially interested me about my textiles theme of personalities. But what I find interesting about confetti crowd is they do this through fashion.

I literally can’t express the excitement their clothes bring me. Their fashion creates and ora of positivity through the bold colours which is something that really inspires me. Their clothes involve sequins and shiny tassels which sparkle and make the outfits look creative and glamorous.

There style for me represents independence and this is something which I am really inspired by, and I mean come on, their clothes are just amazing to look at! Let alone their interesting identities!

I hope you have enjoyed hearing a little bit about what it was that inspired me and a bit about the sassiest girls around in fashion at the moment. Hopefully one day I will have a wardrobe of clothes just as fab! Thanks for reading!

Heya!

So I’m back for my Monday post. This week I am going to be doing a post which I really should have done a while ago but oh well I have finally got round to it.

 So let’s get started! This post is going to be about all the Barry m products I got at the clothes show. So a kind of haul I guess, except it wasn’t really a haul because I actually brought a goodie bag and didn’t choose what was inside it. However never the less I still love all of the products. I brought one of these for myself and one for someone for a Christmas present (partly why this is such a delayed post). Anyway I’m going to be going through what I got in my goodie bag and my thoughts on the product.

First things first my products all came in a cute little Light pink Barry M makeup bag which is great because light pink goes with everything. It is a zip as well which makes it practical and the size is also perfect not too big or too small so this will indeed come in very handy!

Now let’s get started on what I actually got inside my Barry M bag! Of course they are all Barry M products and the first thing was an eye shadow. This is a nude/rose pink colour and would be great for a base colour or for blending. I haven’t used this product yet but I’m sure I will because the colour is so practical for every day and it looks really cute! I also love that it has a transparent lid so it’s easy to see what colour it is in my makeup bag!
The second thing I got was also an eye shadow but in a different shade. This was a grey colour so would be fab for blending to create a Smokey eye effect. It also has a nice little shimmer to it which is perfect for a party look.

The next thing I got was also an eye product but something a little bit different! This was actually a type of eyeliner but in a felt tip form. Now I haven’t used this exact one but I’ve had a similar one before and loved it because it’s so easy to to apply evenly so I’m super excited to try this out.

The last eye related makeup product I got in my Barry M makeup bag was purple eyeliner. Okay so a lot of you probably think why would you want a purple eyeliner but personally I love a bold eyeliner colour for an under the eye look when going out. I also have a lot of clothes which purple eyeliner compliments well. As well as this Barry M is my favourite make for pencil eyeliner so I was really happy with this product!

I also got a super shiny light pink/nude lip gloss in a tube form which was a really nice colour. I personally wear lipsticks more than lip-gloss but because of the pale colour and tube form this will be great to give an extra shine to put on top of a lipstick.

I also got another lip-gloss in my Barry M bag which is more of a pinky colour and is really nice to apply and gives a lovely shine. I was really pleased with this product and if lipstick is something you like then I would defiantly recommended this to you.

Okay so the other things I got in my Barry M goodie bag were nail polishes. I love Barry M nail polishes so I was super happy about these. I was also really pleased that these were random because I always seem to go for the same colours so this was a great way to get the chance to wear a nail polish colour I don’t normally get too.

The first one is a gel effect nail polish which is great because it means it will look professional when applied and give a natural shine. The colour was also a dark brown which is one I didn’t already have so will be great for me to try out. I also have a lot of brown clothes so this will go really well with them.

The next coloured polish I got was a sparkly pink. Yay! I love pink, and sparkly pink is just probably one of the best things ever! This is a really lovely colour and the sparkle in it is blended really well with ht polish so it will still apply evenly and also look glossy!

This one I got was also a different kind of polish. It was part of the Barry m silk collection which gives the polish a metallic shine to it. The colour is a subtle baby blue but with the silk shimmer it makes it look quite special. This is also a colour I don’t already have so was super pleased this came in my bag.

In my bag I also got a gold sparkly polish which was perfect in time for Christmas. Now I’m not going to lie this one doesn’t really apply that evenly because of the large size of the glitter however it does work great as a second coat.

I also got a limited edition coloured polish. This was similar to a lot of colours I already have but never the less I still love it! Something that may be isn’t suitable for this time of year but will be perfect for the summer and I can’t wait to try it out!

Last but not least I got a green nail polish! Now I don’t actually think I own a green polish. It’s just not really my kind of colour but I was so pleased I got this one because it’s something I wouldn’t choose to purchase but would love to try out. This polish also has a matte effect which is also great because I didn’t own any matte polishes and I have wanted to try one for ages and now I have finally got the chance!

That’s all that was in my Barry M bag! A short post this week but never the less I hope you enjoyed! I’ll be back next Monday for another post and once again thank you so much for reading!

Heya! 

It's Monday so I am here for my blog posts! I am sorry it's very late but I have been ill this week so I am bit behind but never the less I couldn't miss out my post! So as I'm sure you are all aware it is the New Year so I thought why not do something a little different this week. So normally my blog is more fashion focused but this week I wanted to do a post about New Year’s resolutions. Some of you may not do New Year resolutions and some of you may ether way that's what I am going to talk about. Who knows you might even find some of the things I am going to try taking up a good New Year’s resolution to take up for yourself! Now I am not saying I am going to stick to all of these but there are a few I deffo am going to persevere with but I thought I would share with you all of the ones which I thought were a good idea! 

So let's get started now I am not going to lie to you a lot of them, well most of them in fact are health related. But I mean our health is something most of us should give a lot more attention to in order to look after ourselves. I am going to be sharing 10 New Year’s resolutions with you on these posts which I think are a great idea. 

1.    Drink more water.

The first goal I want to set myself for New Years is to drink more water. I feel like this is something most people also need to set themselves to do because most of us just don’t drink enough of it. It’s something that we forget we should be doing and put it to this side as one of those things that doesn’t matter. But it does and is actually one of the easiest things we can do. Firstly you don’t have to give anything up for this resolution. Secondly this one is free! So you have no excuse, it’s a resolution which really requires hardly any effort but is something which will make a big impact on your life. Drinking lots of water also has so many health benefits. Firstly it clears up your skin! (If you are anything like me you will try anything to make sure this will happen.) Secondly you will feel more awake and alert for your day which probably will result in you getting more things done in the day. Drinking water obviously also keeps you hydrated which is a major plus for many reasons. And let’s not forget drinking water makes you less likely to want something else to drink like a sugary drink which is bad for you for so many other reasons. So if you are a busy person who wasn’t really thinking about taking anything up this year this is one you should at least try.

2.    Exercise

Secondly of course exercise. Now this is a well known one for New Year’s resolutions. I took this up last year and I actually did do it however I only lasted 6 months and I really wanted to do the whole year. I feel that even if you don’t do hard core exercise we should all set ourselves something small to do to maintain our health and fitness. Last year I went all out with the exercise routine however this year I want to be realistic so I am going to just set myself the task to maintain exercising even if that is just a simple walk and not a hardcore workout.
                                                       
3.    Keep on top of skin care and body care

Skin care is something I am quite big on but for people who aren’t the New Year is the perfect time to start this. Personally I use Clinique for skin care but I feel that it is trial and error for what works best for your skin and eventually you will find the perfect thing. If skin care is something you are keen to find out more about then I may do a separate post about my personal routine. Although I already have a skin care routine I am still going to work towards maintaining this. But not only that, I also want to work on my body care this year. By this I mean moisturising my skin, exfoliating etc. This is something I am actually not very good at doing at the moment. Although I look after my face when it comes to skin care I often neglect areas such as my legs which can leave them feeling drier than they should be. Moisturising and exfoliating is really simple and quick so is something I will be working to improve on this year. In this I also want to include looking after my feet. Many of us don’t like touching feet etc and as a result our feet are probably one of our most neglected areas so this year I want to make sure I stay on top of keeping my feet happy, this could involve things as simple as removing dead skin, looking after my nails and moisturising.

4.    Set goals

So I have always been one for making lists and I like to be organised, part of this is involves setting goals for myself. I am actually going to do a more in depth post about this however I still wanted to include this as one of my resolutions as setting goals makes it much more easier to achieve thing and gives you more of a chance of actually doing it. One of my goals is to do something each week that will help me to achieve my ‘dream’. This is something I will expand on later but setting yourself a goal is such a simple way to help yourself move forward in life and is something lots of people don’t do because I don’t think people realise if you work towards them it can actually really help you.

5.    Learn something new

Now this is a resolution which I actually came across on twitter. It was something I hadn’t thought of but what a great idea. I am always looking for ways to ‘broaden my horizons’ and try new things. This is a really great goal to set yourself. Personally I want to learn to knit and crotchet as I think it will be a great way for me to relax and is something I will found therapeutic but will also benefit my textiles work so won’t be pointless. Now this has to be something realistic other else you will brush it to the side. For example my college is holding a knitting club so I will have the perfect opportunity to learn. This is a great goal anyone can set themselves and of course you can learn anything. It could even be as simple as learning how to make a cake!


6.  Live and breathe fashion

Now as I am sure you all already aware I love fashion. It is a major part of my life but I’ve set myself the resolution to live eat, sleep and breathe fashion. Now this is a strange saying but in basic terms what I mean by this is involve fashion in everything you do, this way you are constantly being inspired and reaching closer to your dream. At the moment as I am currently at college so am very busy, however I have still set myself small task so I can achieve this; for example everyday check the fashion news and trends and stay up to date or ahead. This can be done in ways such as reading fashion magazines, blogs, watching shows or browsing fashion apps. Of course this is also something I love to do so I know I can push to maintain this task.


7. Make clothes


Okay so this is another personal one but it is something I really want to kick start this year. So as some of you may know I studied textiles at GCSE and am currently studying the A Level at college. I have made a few bits and bobs but I really want to expand my skills of garment making in my spare time in order to become innovative and creative with what I can make so that I can use my new skills within my work. I also want to be able to wear the clothes I make and bring that in as a life style choice so I can have my own style and be sustainable.

 8. Vitamins

Okay this one might sound like a bit of an odd one however I have been poorly recently with petty things like cold and flu and I really don’t want to be dragged down by feeling ill. This year I want to stay motivated and be as focused as ever. Felling ill however won’t help this and will just result in me being lazy. To prevent this I really want to try and make sure I am having a good amount of vitamins in my diet, Of course vitamins are not only good to prevent you from being ill but overall they make you feel healthier, stronger and more awake which will help you day to day but also keep you healthier in the long run. You can take vitamin supplements or you can simply make sure you are having vitamins through your diet. For example having orange juice can help to give you a healthy level of vitamin C.

9. Memories 

This one is something I have been meaning to do for ages and it’s not really a resolution as such but more of a task I want to set myself. I want to create photo albums for certain events and keep scrapbook so I can look back and be thankful for all if the things I have been blessed with. 

 10. Be spontaneous

This may sound like a strange one but there is method to my madness! This is something I would say I don’t do a lot. I am an organised person and tend to plan when I am doing something. But I feel for enjoyment and a healthy life it would be good for me to jump outside of my comfort zone. This is a perfect new year’s resolution even though it may be slightly odd. Being spontaneous could just be as simple as going to a walk in the fresh air or could be something much more dramatic. I feel like this would make things more exciting and real. I also feel like being spontaneous is a great way to live in the moment.

So I hope you have enjoyed reading a little bit about my New Year Goals. Id love to hear from you all what you thought about this style of post as I know it was a little bit different this time! I would also love to hear about your New Years Resolutions! Thank you all for reading!

Heya guys!

I am back once again. I know it is not a Monday but I have a lot to blog about and it's the holidays so who cares? Don't worry I will still be doing my post on Monday too! Now I had planned to do a post about all the Barry M products I had grabbed myself at the clothes show, however I haven't been very well so instead I have decided to do a shorter post about the Glitter Hair Roots trend as I thought would be perfect in time for New Years. 

Now I would like to firstly start of by saying I hope that everyone had a super lovely Christmas! I know that the festivities are still on going so I also hope you are having a fab time as I speak (well type but you get the idea). So as I mentioned during all of my waffle today's post is going to be about Glitter Roots.

So let's get started. Glitter roots are actually a big hair trend at the moment. I had seen little bits and pieces on Instagram, but I wasn't fully aware about how big the trend was until my friend Ella was doing a feature about it as part of her magazine for a media project. 

So what are Glitter Roots and why would you want them? Well of course the question why you would want them can be complete different according to each individual. But personally I think it is a great way of adding a bit of sparkle to your hair. It of course looks as though you have gone to a lot of effort as well and It's also a great way to stand out. But of course it's Christmas and New Year is just around the corner so what better time to add a little bit of sparkle to your normal look. Glitter is everywhere at this time of year so why not complete your look with adding that little something extra to your hair? And I mean come on let's not forget it's on trend too! I mean most people want to stay in style at least a little bit don't they? Well this is the perfect way as it is fun, cost efficient and unique! So what actually is glitter roots and how can you achieve this look?  Is something you may be thinking. So let's get down to basics. Glitter roots are basically very self explanatory. It is a way of adding sparkle to your hair. This is achieved by of course glitter and hair gel and is worn in the parting of your hair.


My friend Ella actually completed the look which the photos show in this post for part of her media project, and for those of you who want to have a little experiment with this look here is how it is done. 

 So first things first you will need some glitter and some liquid clear coloured hair gel. You will then need something you can mix these together on. As you have probably guessed you mix the gel and glitter together. Personally I find the best way is to put the gel on the mixing tray first and then add the glitter to mix in after as this will leave you with a more accurate idea of how much glitter you will need. Remember you can always add more glitter or gel as you are mixing. You can mix this with anything really, the end of a brush or a brush itself are both good options. Once this is all mixed you should have a hair gel which is completely mixed with the glitter of your choice.

 Now the next step is to find the parting of your hair and comb this out so that it is very obvious when you apply the gel. You may be thinking why does the glitter have to be applied to the roots/parting? Now of course you can experiment with applying the glitter on other parts of your hair. However from experience the area you have applied the glitter gel to tends to go flatter than the rest of your hair. Naturally the hair at the parting is flatter so this doesn't effect the look or volume of your hair. Also not forgetting the current trend is all about glitter roots. 

 So what's next? Now once you have created a very distinct parting you can start to apply the glitter gel to your hair. How can you do this? Well for my hair and what we found best was using a brush which is used when dying your hair. These can be found at local makeup stores or chemists. Other things can probably also be used but this is what we felt gave the best result. Now let me just warn you the gel feels rather cold when its first applied because obviously there is a lot more than what you would use to just style your hair due to the fact your need to cover your whole parting.

 From here the process is quite straight forward. You simply use your glitter and gel mix and brush it onto your roots. Now what I will say is this is very wet when you have first done this. Personally mine did not dry properly for around an hour. So keep this in mind. If you find once you have applied the gel that the area you have covered your hair in has gone flatter than you would like you can always back comb your hair in the area. I personally didn't do this due to the length of my hair, however this is a look my friend who has long hair achieved on her hair to create a more volumized look. 

There is also a few tips for you if you are wanting to create this look on your hair. 

 Firstly I would defiantly say this is possible to achieve on yourself however it is a lot quicker if someone does it for you. 

 Secondly I feel the technique works best if you mix very fine glitter with the gel as it mixes easier and also covers all the hair easier. 

 Colour is also a major factor to this look. You can of course use colours of your choice and can even mix and match. As you can see for my hair my friend used a bright blue. I felt this worked well as it was very vibrant and showed up. Colours like silver and gold can also be used but you have to be weary that these may not show up as well or create the same kind of look. I have also seen completely different looks but with the same trend where sequins or such like is used, so it is defiantly something you can play around with. 

 If you where going to use this look I would strongly recommend experimenting with it before hand so you know exactly what you are doing and the look you want to create. 
I'd also like to add that hairspray of course is a great option to finish the look, as it will keep everything in place. This is not essential but it will ensure the look lasts longer. However if you do chose to use hairspray be cautious not to use to much as  the combination with the gel could mean the hair could ends up looking to stiff, which may not be the ideal look you are going for.

Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed the post and that you liked me sharing this current trend and some tips just in time for New Years. I would love to hear what you think of it or if you do recreate this look how you get on. Also if I haven't answered anything or you have more questions please feel more than welcome to leave a comment below. 

 Thanks again for reading! I hope you enjoy the rest of your holidays!

Heya!

So I am back for my second post this week yay! I've actually managed to find time! I hope you are all okay! So I wanted to do a post about all the beauty products I got at the clothes show but there were so many so I've decided to split it into two blog posts because the majority of it was ether from models own or Barry M! So this post is going to be all about the models own makeup I managed to pick up and I will probably get around to doing a post about my Barry M stuff just after Christmas so make sure you look out for that!

So without further ado lets get started! Basically I thought I would explain to you the deals first before you all think I went absolutely crazy and just brought tonnes of models own stuff! So the deal was you could choose four things on display from models own for £10 and with that you would receive a free goodie bag! Now the goodie bag was the same as last years which I also got however  I had used most of the stuff up and I wanted to re purchase it again anyway! 

So for the four items I chose three nail polishes and an eye shadow pallet. The first nail polish I chose was a grey colour with a gel effect. I chose this polish because I didn't already own a grey polish and I guess it was an elegant grey opposed to a dull grey. I also chose it because the colour would suit most things and also the gel effect would make my nails look more professional. I have actually already worn this polish I just couldn't resit and I really loved it!

Secondly I chose another gel effect polish because it creates a really lovely polished look (excuse the pun). This time I chose a turquoise colour despite it not being a seasonal colour at the moment. I wanted to ensure I chose colours which I didn't all ready have, and I love how bright and fun this colour looked. I also thought it would be perfect for the summer holidays!

My third polish I chose was also not a very seasonal appropriate colour however, I also didn't have this colour and it really stood out for me! Not only because of the vibrancy and brightness of the colour but also I don't know why but I have really fallen in love with orange tones recently and feel like this will be prefect for 2016 spring! It also seemed like such a cheery colour and anything to make my day a little more bright I will opt for!

Now the fourth thing I chose to get was not actually nail polish but it was in fact a mini eye shadow pallet. They had several colours for the eye shadow pallets however I chose a nude purely because this is so much more practical for everyday use and I am running low on my current nude coloured eye shadow. I also felt that the colours in the pallet would blend really nicely together. Plus it came with a mirror, how perfect for travel! 

Now moving on to the models own goodie bag! So this is what came free with my models own purchases. In my opinion I think this is a great goodie bag it has so much in it and that's why I had to share it with you guys! So what's inside…

Firstly Inside the good bag was another nude coloured eye shadow pallet. This only had two shades but they were completely opposite tones of nude so would be great for blending. They also came in a nice little case which kept them tidy but the see through lid meant it is convenient to see this colours without having to remove it. I also liked that these eye shadows had a natural shimmer to them. 

 The next thing I got in my goodie bag was eye shadow applicators. These are are not brushes however I feel for a bolder colour when you don't want to blend they are better to use, or even if you don't want to have to keep washing your brushes and you stick to a certain colour for each applicator. I often use these a base coat for an eye shadow colour before applying the colours I want to blend with an eye shadow brush. Also these were the exact applicators I have been using which I had also got last year from the clothes show, however I really needed some more so I was very pleased this came in the goodie bag. Also The applicators are a perfectly length they are not to short but are small enough to store anywhere and fit in makeup bags. 

 A similar thing which I got in my models own goodie bag was makeup sponges. To be honest I don't actually use makeup sponges but I was still pleased to get them as they are something which I have been meaning to try out just for experimental purposes to be honest. Also there are a lot of makeup sponges which are cheap which just feel like they would be rubbish for applying makeup however these sponges felt very high quality. 

 In my goodie bag I also got a four way nail fail. This basically means the nail fail does four different things but is attached to one nail file. The nail file can be used to file, buff, smooth and shine. This was another item which came in the goodie bag which I was really pleased with because this is something I also used from last years goodie bag however my current one was starting to become a bit warn out. It is also very convenient because it is very short so its small size is great to take with you somewhere as it fits in all of my makeup bags. 

 I also got a pocket mirror in my goodie bag which is something I was also pleased about. I also got one of these last years but I find pocket mirrors are just like bobby pins or socks they are just something that always seems to go missing and I mean you just cant have enough of them. I must have a pocket mirror in like every bag now but I mean I think that its just super convenient. Pocket mirrors are just such an ideal thing especially when your wearing lipstick and you have been out for a meal! I also like how small and lightweight this one is. It would be perfect for a little clutch bag. 

 Another thing which I got in the goodie bag was an eyelash curler. I think this will certainly come in handy and was great to get in a goodie bag because it is one of those things you don't want to go out and buy but you want to have. I also liked that its black because it makes it look more expensive and also it is very lightweights which is great because in the past I have used heavy metal eyelash curlers and they are just not practical. 

Now this next thing I am very very happy to have got once again in my goodie bag. It is a nail art pen. This is something which I got last year but I liked it so much I have already used it all up. So I was really pleased about this. It is black colour which is great because it goes with most polishes you wear. And basically it is like nail varnish however it has a really small hole were it comes out more like a roller pen and when you squeeze it a small amount comes out which makes it very practical for doing nail art and design on your nails.

 In my goodie bag I also got a high pigmented coloured lip gloss. This was great because I love love love bright lips! As most of you are probably aware. However I sometimes feel like lipstick can just feel a bit dry on you lips. (not all lipsticks but sometimes) especially in the winter months. So a high pigmented brightly coloured lipstick is just great because lipstick always feels so great to wear but normally just doesn't give the same colour effect as lipstick. I haven't tried this out yet but I am really excited too. 

 As well as a lip gloss i also got a lip balm. This was also something i was very excited to get because i had also got this last year but had used it all up and i just find it is a great lip balm to apply before lipstick or just to wear around the house to g=keep my lips hydrated. It is also nice and small and not over packaged so is great to take on the go. The colour is very neutral looking and also smells very neutral which is practically great. because i feel like allot of makeup these days is scented which is nice but when you start wearing a lot of makeup like this when you are going out it can just make you smell like you've visited a perfume store and tired out every scent. haha.

 The goodie bag also include two eyeliners. Both of them are black however one is a plain black and one is a sparkly black. They also differ in width. I was very pleased that both of them came in the goodie bag because the sparkly one is great for going out because it creates a more dressed up look but the plain black colour makes sure your makeup doesn't look to over the top. However I was particularly pleased the thin plain black eyeliner came in the goodie bag again this year because this is what i use for my everyday under eye eyeliner and I have really got on well with it however  I have been coming to an end of my previous one. 

 Models Own has done me well this year at The Clothes Show and you can probably tell by now that I am really happy with my purchases! I also brought a lot form Barry M products so I will be doing another post on that so keep your eyes peeled! I hope you are all having a lovely Christmas holidays! Thanks once again for reading!
