Translation

Hey just to tell you that I have put a translation widget on my blog so that if you don't speak English well you can still enjoy my random ramblings. I'm really passionate about languages and travel so expect some posts related to travel and maybe if the demand is there some posts in another language...
see you soon

Hi, so I've got a few ideas for posts but I would really appreciate your  ideas, comments and feedback as after all this is really for you. I'm trying to come up with posts and themes that aren't as widely blogged on so anything that you have maybe looked for but couldn't find would be really appreciated.
Thank you so much and happy reading

What's In My Make Up Bag The Grand Finale!

Finally we have come to the end of our little tour around my every day make up bag and this time we're talking skin care and lips!
So first thing first this is one of my favourite products in the world due to its many many different uses. Nivea Creme. This little blue pot costs around £1.50 and lasts forever. I use it as a moisturiser and body lotion but the list of uses are endless. From cleansing to an amazing face mask this produce does everything. Well almost everything. I'm still waiting for a version that puts itself on while I don't have to do anything. 
When it comes to spots I only have one solution and it works so well at such a great price I don't need to look for another. The Witch Blemish Stick costs £2.99, lasts forever (I've never had to replace it yet) and gets rid of spots so quickly its ridiculous. I carry this around so that whenever I find a spot all I have to do it roll some on and bam overnight it will either disappear or look much less visable!
Finally when it comes to lips I like to keep it natural so the only thing I wear everyday is one of my six Maybelline Baby Lips. I love these so much the tinted ones are perfect, just a hint of colour with a lot of caring moisture and the non tinted ones give my lips so much care. My two favourites are Cherry Me and Hydrate and they all cost £2.99 each.

So that concludes my everyday make up bag, I hope this has been helpful to you guys and as always any requests for blogs are gratefully received just comment below.
See you soon

What's In My Make Up Bag - Part 2!

Welcome to part 2!
 For those observant people out there who may have noticed I only just posted the first part I do not care!
So now I am onto the fabulous topic of products for your face but not to look after your face that's next time. So on we go but I should probably tell you that my face products differ quite a lot from some peoples as I don't use foundation everyday. I have quite clear skin so I don't see the need but for all you lovely people I will talk about foundation in a later post and no that doesn't mean in twenty minutes.

First things first concealer. I have a liquid one and a stick. I have the Maybelline Cover Stick in 001 Ivory which costs £2.99. I love this as I think it matches my skin perfectly and and covers all my annoying spots and blemishes. The only thing I need to say is to not rub it in but pat it in as if you rub it in it will rub off giving you no coverage whatsoever! Brilliant quality at a brilliant price!
My liquid one is from surprise surprise H and M! Yes I am surprised too. I picked it up as an emergency cover up for only £1.99 but it turned out to actually be quite good quality. It's just called CONCEALER by H and M and I have shade 17 soft nougat. I was really surprised to find it actually covered my spots and stayed on too, not what you would expect from a clothes shop concealer. I will definitely be buying this again as I cannot complain about either the price or the quality but once again you do have to pat this in rather than rub. Sorry I couldn't find a picture of this and mine has run out so I need to get some more:(

Finally powder! I use the Collection Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Powder in 002 medium. This gives me a really nice coverage, not a lot but what you would expect from a power and all for only £2.99. It stays on all day and goes on really easily. 
I use my Seventeen blusher brush with this which I really love. Their brushes are so cheap yet don't wear out or get all thick and matted and it was only £3.
So that is my everyday face make up all for only £11 including the brush! I really hope you guys try some of these out but always remember try out the colours before as I have seen what happens if you don't. Not pretty! 
See you soon

What's In My Make Up Bag - Part 1

So I thought the best place to start would be what's in my everyday make up bag but to avoid a really long post I thought I'd split it into a few parts so here's part 1- eyes!

To start with, mascara. I use the Miss Sporty Studio Lash Incredi-Ball  Mascara in Black. This is a brand that is very cheap but is not always the best quality but if you look you will find some very good products! This mascara costs £2.99 and is incredible. 
I personally love the brush shape but if you prefer another style they have a few options all for the same price. I think it goes on very nicely, stays on all day long and gives gorgeous volume. There is also a water proof version that is amazing for when I go swimming. Over all this is an amazing bargain and fabulous quality too it lasts for ages!

Next, eye-liner. I have two; a liquid liner and a pencil liner. My pencil liner is the Maybelline Master Drama Khol Liner in ultra black. This costs £2.99 and is amazing. It goes on so smoothly and easily and lasts all day still looking as black as it did when I put it on. For the price this is really good quality and I would really recommend it.

My liquid liner is also Miss Sporty but this time their Studio Lash Eye Liner in extra black. Once again it costs £2.99! I find that the Miss Sporty Studio Lash range is really good quality compared to their other products and this liner is no different. It's really easy to apply and goes on so smoothly with a really solid black colour lasting all day. This is good quality with a great price! What more could I want!


So there it is those three products are all the eye make up I wear on a day to day basis and all for only £9! 

I hope this has given you guys an idea of the kind of products I like, fabulous quality with an even better price! Oh dear I sound like a tv advert.

Hello!
So this is my first post and honestly I haven't really got any clue what I'm doing! I was thinking of posting about fashion and beauty on a budget as I often find I can't afford the products other bloggers recommend so maybe there's more people out there like me. I'm always open to suggestions so get typing wherever you are sitting! 
See you soon
