I thought I'd add this box so that you get to feel for me and the posts before reading them in depth if you want to, I have a love for most things Disney (covering myself) I'm a qualified hairdresser and beautician (so hopefully I can give you some helpful tips) and love all things girly as well as the odd PS game thrown in the mix, I started this blog as I wanted somewhere I could voice my opinion as well as trying something new. My Blog is full of Disney, Monthly Favourites, Hauls, Reviews, Makeup looks, What's in my Makeup bag, Festive season posts and some Random ones here and there. so why not give me a follow and take a peek.....

January Favourites



January Favourites


TV

Taboo

This is a great tv show the only down side is it would suit a Sunday night rather then a Saturday night but if that's the only bad point I can think of it really isn't that bad plus it stars Tom Hardy so it makes up for it really as like everyone else I'm a big fan of the beautiful man, it's dark, different and it reminds in a way of a story they'd use on assassin's creed, good story line excited to see which way it goes as it's still got a couple more episodes left.

Beauty and Skincare

NYX Highlight & Contour Pro Palette



This is probably my favourite powder highlight and contour palette I own. Most of the time I prefer powder to cream products as I feel cream products can make me look cakey. This palette is really easy to use, as if your not reallly brave to go for the really dark contour you can start light and work your way to the dark shades, it is well pigmented my favourite one is probably the ice queen highlighter as it's really sparkly and catches the light.

NYX Professional Makeup Lip Lingerie Lipstick in Exotic


I love this nude shade, it's easy to apply and I really like the nude range that NYX have done,  the only thing I will say is it doesn't look exactly the same on you as in the tube so doing a patch test on the back of your hand before you buy will help show you the true colour. Also have to reapply as it doesn't stay if eating and drinking. I don't mind the applicator just have to take more time to make sure It's neat.

Sleek Eye Shadow Palette in Ultra Matts V2 & Au Naturel 

I really like sleek palette's although slightly pricey compared to the makeup revolution but they are really pigmented, great to apply and The Au Naturel is a great palette to have a basic but these palette's together I created the look below and I loved it. I can't wait to create more looks I live for. (also wearing the NYX lingerie in Exotic)




Heaven skincare Cleanse & Foam Wash

I love the smell of this product for one it smells amazing it's nice a soft on my sensitive skin as it's not harsh. I put it on my face and use my fingers to work it in and them wipe it of with a muslin cloth and warm water I use this as my first cleanse then the heaven New Edition Cleansing Cream as my second cleanse. The Foam wash makes my skin feel super soft, full and I really like how it makes my skin feel.

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Night Pads

I really like these pads it says to use them three times a week but with having sensitive skin I use it once a week after I've cleansed and toned my skin. I feel like it's helped my skin look less dull and help with exfoliating my skin. Also quick and easy to use for the lazy part of me.

Everything Else

Hobbs Gabriella Scarf In Bordeaux


I bought this scarf in the sale it was a steal at £26 instead of nearly £60 it's super soft and great colour it's a burgndy with hints of black as well as being the right length and I just love it been looking for one for a while but didn't want to over spend on a item I can only use part of the time.

Daisy Dixon Watch Annie in Mink and Gold


I got this watch for Christmas and I love it, like that it's subtle with the grey but then has the pop of neon pink, for the marks, hands and stitching. It's a nice size as I feel small face watches look odd on me but this face is the perfect size for my wrist. Also had lots of compliments on it too.

Pia Pom Pom keyring

Bought this also in the Sale it has gem detailing on the strap from the pom pom to the keyring which is a nice little extra detail also I'm kind of obsessed with pom poms so I had to buy it just have to find the perfect bag for it to sit on.

Clutch bag from Tkmaxx


I bought this before Christmas and I was looking a similar clutch bags to this on other sites but that had something That I wasn't a fan of but this one is holographic hearts it super cute I'm a fan of anything that glitter and catches light. It's a good clutch bag size for phone, purse and keys and also comes with a long chain which is really handy as it's sometimes easier to put it over your shoulder then to carry it in your hand. This was just under £20 where as others that had extra were priced at £40 so I thought it was a good price.

Think I may start posting monthly favourites on the last Friday of the month.

December Favourites



December Favourites

DVD

Peter's dragon

I really enjoyed the remake of this film I like they way they went with it and how Peter came to find Elliot, I feel like they could of done more with the film but I really liked it and love the remakes of all the classics as it gives the original another layer to the film and characters.

Beauty and Skincare 

Prima Glitter Eyeshadows The Full Collection 





I bought these in the black Friday sale, I've been looking for glitter eyeshadows for a while and so I'd thought I'd treat myself. These glitter shadows have a gel like feel then dry once you've applied it, they last for a long time as well it lasted for 12 hours and it was still going strong even when I removed it. I love everything that glitter and sparkles so these are perfect.

Ardell Wispies Lashes



I got this in my beauty advent calendar and I love them they have been my go to lashes they are really long and fluttery and I can wear them and not have to but eyeliner on to hid the strip. I'm wanting to buy more to add to my lash collection.

Everything else

Pearl Compact Mirror




This Mirror is amazing, firstly it's a compact mirror it has a light for those much needed touch ups before going out and it also chargers your phone or tablet or ipod, it's a great handy size and has multiple uses. 

Simplybe Shoes

Boots and Flats by sole diva





I love these shoes the boots are simple black with embroidered flower pattern at the ankle they are perfect to added a little more to an outfit. The flats are a really nice wine red colour with the embellishment in a gun metal colour these are nice to add some colour as well as being comfy so you can dance a little bit longer

Salon Service Mirror


I love this mirror it's a great size it's bigger then the average mirror, it folds flat so perfect for travelling, it also stands by it's self so you just need to place it down and it's a beautiful iridescent colour the inner mermaid in me loves it.  

Evans Gem Black Flats

These are also perfect party shoes with added extra sparkly, really comfy I wore these for my Work Christmas do and they didn't hurt my feet and added a bit of glitz to my outfit.
