Neon Pink.

Im currently on holiday in swansea, and i can't even explain how beautiful the weather is!

i've been going to the beach literally everyday, and as a result , have gotten at least 3 shades darker! hahah.

I thought this bright pink looked so cute on tanned fingers, i feel like summer!

This one is "Neon Pink: by Collection.

I've never tried any product from collection, but i can 100% say this is such a nice nail polish and i will definitely start buying from them way more often!

A Review Series ; Rebel Tinted Moisturiser


I was walking in debenhams over a week ago , and some lady asked if she could try the benefit makeup on me.

Now as i've never actually tried anything benefit, i agreed.

Instantly , i fell in love with the tinted moisturiser!



Its so smooth and light on your face , and honestly , considering its not a foundation i find , it does the job of covering imperfections so well!

The lady told me i could put foundation over it, but, i love it as it is.

It gives my face a nice glow and it makes me look so natural!

I mostly love how lovely it feels, i have such dry sensitive acne prone skin, and I've found that this is brilliant for that!

like seriously, if you're like me ,and find that most foundations cause you to either breakout or get your face irritated, this one is for you!

It retails for about 20Pounds .. kind of pricey .. but believe me when i say ITS SO WORTH IT!

It comes in 2 shades, dark and light.

After i've used this product, I'm literally considering buying one of those makeup ready kits, so that i can get to try a lot of their stuff without fully committing to buying a full size.

Though, here's where i  need your help!

if you've ever tired one of their kits or products which do you recommend i should?

also, if theres any lovely drugstore concealer that actually feels and looks great , do give me suggestions! i need a good one without spending a fortune honestly !


Thanks for reading!

"Photos of my life, once a week, every week"

 So , I'm going to be starting something new, where I'm going to post about 2-5 pictures about my week in summary , every week for the whole of 2014.

i got this idea from bluebird, a blogger, check her out here. Though, she does a portrait of her kids..
and well as I'm 20 .. i figured it would be a smart way to kind of blog my journey through 2014, you know , to look back at , kind of like a scrapbook?

As i've already missed 2 weeks (the year started on a wednesday, so that will be a week)

instead of making the year 52weeks of photos, we'll just excuse me, and make them 50.

I'd love for you reading this, to  start as well! it'd be quite fun i think!

so link me your blogs in the comments if you are!

Week 1/50








  1. Walked to this beautiful area, it literally is as pretty as it looks!
  2. Took a walk in nature. it was so lovely
  3. I went to a club for the first time in my life! it was cooool.
  4. Visited cardiff
  5. and more cardiff
  6. and more more cardiff. ITS SO PRETTY.

Good Food;Happy Me!

We all know , when you're on holiday, you deserve some sort of lovely food!

I know we deserve lovely food everyday. But, honestly, who has the time to make something that looks so delicious and taste as yum everyday?

With college and studying and assignments .. i definitely don't.

But, since i have all the spare time on my hands right now.. i kind of decided to put a bit more effort.

So, on 1 day, this was my breakfast. and yum yum yum is all i can say!


Then one day i went to a cute cupcake store, that i recommend to everyone! 
their website is www.onceuponacupcake.info and you can find all the details there!

It was so vintage inspired. it literally felt like i was 5 and was playing Tea Time honestly.
The shop is quite small but it was so nice and cosy and the cupcake OH GOD. AMAZING.
It was more of the whole feel of the experience as well though. ah! HAVE to pay it a visit again before i leave!


On another day, Mai decided to cook us this lovely plate for lunch
nom nom nom



"I eat to live, not live to eat"


Well i do! but sometimes yum yum !

HUGE Haul!

Well , it's finally about time i don't one of those again!

As i'm on vacation, i kind of shopped a lot .. oops..

weirdly though, i haven't exactly been in the mood for clothes shopping , so most of the stuff are accessories or bits and pieces. Mostly though, i think i got my little sister a lot of gifts!


So , first off... Primark! it was my first time entering a primark, and honestly.. not as impressed as i thought i'd be! but hey, found a few cute things!



Lush. i was SO SURPRISED that lush here is LITERALLY half price cheaper than back home! plus over here i get my VAT back! so thats 20% off my bill! HOW CHEAP... i'll most certainly visit lush before i leave for some bath bombs, so i'll have a proper haul and review on the things I've used soon!


The Union Jack Mug & Gold chain necklace were from BHS.

Hair ties: Primark





These are literally all for my younger sister :)

 Sticky notes book , 2 Children Stories & Stickers : Random bookstore on the road

Babylips : Tesco

Nailarts: Primark

Teen beach movie Calendar & DVD: HMV


THEN AH THE MOST EXCITING! I got my grades and as a reward to myself i decided .. LET ME PIERCE MY EAR! so eeee i got a second piercing and i LOVE it!

honestly, it didn't hurt at all , which was so surprising.. like even now, i honestly totally forget i got it done! i got it done at claires.. it was quite pricey being 30 Pounds, but honestly.. i was too scared to do it at the body art store next door oops.

Of you're too scared to get it done, honestly , GO FOR IT! IT REALLY DOESN'T HURT AT ALL AND AH I LOVE IT!



Next thing i decided to treat myself with, is this super pretty Ted Baker wash bag. i love it! and it came in the cutest packaging box , because i ordered it online.

This is the "KACE wash bag" if you were wondering :)




I don't usually buy more expensive makeup.. but the lady in the shop tried this on me and I LOVED IT! if you'd like a review.. be sure to keep checking! i'll have that up as soon as i've worn this bad boy for at least a week!

Oh its from benefit :)




Bag & Watch : Dorothy Perkins * 

KeyChain : Accessorize 





Earrings: Claire's

Keychain & Pin : Cancer Research thrift shop!


andddd thats really itttt :D

New Years Resolutions

So i'm literally a week late to posting my new years resolutions, but , before i do..

let me say , new years is a time for people to start fresh. To open a new page.
Usually I'm like , no .. new years is literally a day away.. how are things meant to change in a day..

you can think of it like that , or you could think of it as a push from the universe, to change.

surely though, something to keep in mind , is that you shouldn't wait for a day like new years to change. You can start any day by just having the will power!

so this year it's taken me quite some time to think of my resolutions , as i literally had no idea..
but now i do so here they aree!

1. cut of with the soda..
 
       I literally have soda every single day. and not only is it horrible for your health its also bad for your teeth. realistically though, i know i can completely cut of it.. so I'm going to limit it to 2 cans a week! .. fingers crossed.



2. Become a better swimmer!

Earlier this year i begun swimming properly, and well the title is self explanatory.. by the end of this year , i hope i will be wayyy better !


3. Start going to the gym

Now yes, i swim, so thats somewhat being fit.. but not really.. I'm super clumsy and weak and so injure pron .. so as of this month, i've already joined in a super high tech gym..(only because its a 3mins walk and also SUPER CHEAP and high tech will motivate me as shallow as that is ) 

i've been to the gym about 5 times this new year, and my body loves it! 

hopefully i keep this up!




Soo what are you new year resolutions? .. maybe i can get inspired :D

also, look out for a "my workout routine" blog.. i think that would be nice :)

On holiday..

Hello Lovelies,

After a proper 3 month hell, I'm on vacaaatttiiooonnnnn

Im currently in quite a small town/city, but honestly its so pretty even though the sun sets at 4pm and it rains almost everyday.















Ahh it really does feel good getting out of a crowded city every once in a while!
