HD Brows!!!!

I am sooo excited to finally post about this. I've been looking into the HD Brow procedure for absolute ages, and I finally had them done last week! I was sceptical at first and kind of nervous that it may hurt or not turn out right, but after looking at endless amazing before and after pictures, I decided to just go for it. And I am so happy I did.

If you're not sure what HD Brows are, it's a procedure of multiple steps, including waxing, threading and tinting to achieve the perfect brow. It defines your eyebrows and makes them into the perfect shape.
They brush through your brows and apply a tint after giving you a consultation asking you what colour and shape you'd prefer your brows. After removing the tint, they use warm wax to remove hairs and thread any lighter less visible hairs. They proceed to trim any really long hairs and fill in any gaps in your eyebrows with a pencil. The whole procedure is around £25-£35.

And here I present you with the before and after photos! :)

Current Skin Care Routine!

I've been 'upping my game' (what?) with my skin care lately, decided my face needs some loving, I've been on a rampage trying to find all the best products to perfect my skin and eliminate the pesky blemishes. And as this is a continuous problem for many of you out there, I thought I'd just make a blog post out of it, it may help you and introduce you to new products you've never heard of before. Leggo!

                 


















1. Wash                                                        2. Moisturise

I've been using the Neutrogena pink grapefruit foaming       To be honest with you, I only picked this up
scrub for a good couple of years now, and I can say           because I thought the packaging was pretty, the
with confidence that this is hands down my favourite           description looked pretty promising, telling me
face wash. It's gentle exfoliating beads remove dead           that I'd see results after just 1 day, I'm all about
skin cells and help eliminate them small little bumps you       that. I was actually very pleasantly surprised, my
get on your forehead that seem impossible to get rid of.      skin actually looked better after a couple of days
Oh and did I mention, it smells FABULOUS.                    of moisturising morning and night, great product.

3. Spot treatment

Sudocrem is my one and only, my one true love. It does what it says, it heals. It soothes any broken skin and very rapidly and significantly reduces the appearance of any obnoxious blemish. Just please don't do what I did when I first got it, I put a big fat layer of it all over my face, trust me that is so not fun to take off. Take a small amount on your finger and dot it on your blemishes, leave it on overnight or whenever you're around the house.  It's so cheap and you can find it at almost every supermarket or pharmacy. You get such a massive amount too, it'll last you years.


This is obviously a very narrowed down skin care routine with my most used and favourite products. If you want to see what I use in depth, just ask me and I'll probably do that for you too. So anyway, Happy New Years, I haven't had a chance to say that yet. Sorry this post is so late, I've been beating myself up for it don't worry. Lots of love!

Fashspiration #2

So it's that week again, another Fashspiration coming your way. I know I mentioned that I would probably do these seasonally, but I end up seeing and saving so many beautiful pieces, my folders start overflowing, so I'm most likely going to end up doing these more frequently... if you don't mind that is.

So here's the second installment, enjoy.

Also, I think I may introduce 'Foodspiration', I mean hey who doesn't like the look of pretty food, seen as though I already have 'Fashspiration'  and 'Roomspiration' running, I may as well go full on out. Keep your eyeballs peeled for that yoo.

Not Your Usual Post (Sexism)

With the international day of the elimination of violence against women just gone, and many other issues and speculations recently arising about how a certain gender should be as a whole, and how they should and shouldn't act in society, I decided I need to just add something. I never really understood who a feminist was but I remember being labelled one every time my opinion differentiated me from a lower class citizen. Sexism is a social disease and it needs to be cured. And just because I'm pro-women does not mean I'm anti-men, that's far from the case. I'm a big believer in equality, and being told that you can't do something, or be someone just because of your gender, disgusts me. I leave you with this video.

Roomspiration #1

Oooh check me out posting on time and stuff. So Roomspiration will be a lot like Fashspiration, but inspiring your bedroom rather than your wardrobe. I love looking at different bedrooms and seeing all the creativity people implant into their rooms to display their personality and their feelings, bedroom designing can be very personal to the person it's their own free piece of space where they can be completely in their element.

My Favourite Benefit Products!

Everyone loves a bit all of benefit don't they. Once you lay your eyes on all the products, you're immediately pulled in, because you're a sucker for all the packaging...right? Me too. Not one Benefit product has disappointed me so far, although I did have higher expectations for some of them, I loved them nevertheless.

Now, I must admit that at first I kind of didn't really see why people loved this so much, I was disappointed and kind of left it aside for a few weeks. Not long after I decided to give it a go again, and I used it alongside another mascara, then I realised how good it actually is, it makes such a massive difference to just applying my usual mascara, the ends of my eyelashes literally touch my eyebrows!

The dandelion boxed powder blush is sooooo pretty! It has a slight shimmer to it, when she sun hits your face it looks so good. It's ever so natural too, you could definitely get away to wearing this to school, it uplifts your face and makes you look more healthy and awake, something you really need for school!
The dandelion range all together is so natural and stunning, the lipgloss is a perfect nude! You should definitely swatch the blush next time you're near a benefit counter, because words cannot truly explain how pretty this blush is!

You've probably heard so many things about the Benefit high beam, before buying it I had read mixed reviews, some people said that it completely changed their life and some said that it's not worth the money at all. I definitely believe that to see high beam in full power you need to let the light hit your face, your face looked completely different, so glowing and healthy. It feels extremely nice and light on your skin and highlights all the key areas, it's worth the money!!!

Meadham Kirchoff for Topshop!

   Intensely saccharine with sinister undertones.

I'm not sure if you guys have already heard but YES MEADHAM KIRCHOFF ARE RELEASING ANOTHER COLLECTION FOR TOPSHOP WOOP WOOP!! I'm beyond excited, their previous lines have been absolutely magnificent, and this year we're only expecting better! The collection is based around a fictional girl band; the Cherrys! Each of the band members possesses a exclusive and prominent style.

'It's like Jem And The Holograms meets Marilyn Manson' -Ben Kirchhoff

There's A LOT of pink and fluffy items, but then again there's items that you can definitely see Marilyn Manson sporting. It's kind of fun and playful, something to hopefully entertain people and give them something to dress up in, it's the whole point, these are clothes that celebrate uniqueness and tap that into the pure pleasure of fashion. 

'...But take each piece as an individual and you'll find pretty blouses, statement knits and sweet skirts that can slot right into your wardrobe' adds Ed. 

I don't know about you, but I can hardly stay still, the collection is absolutely breathtaking and incredibly creative, it's concentrated talent. The line is available in-store and online from the 21st of November.
