The Face Mask Lowdown
After struggling with 'bloggers block' for a month or two, I'm back with an honest lowdown on 6 face masks I've used lately. It can be hard to find a decent face mask that suits not just your skin type but your beauty budget too, so the ones im going to talk about are all purse friendly choices that won't break the bank. Hopefully this will help you if you've been looking for a new product to freshen up your skincare routine!

Things I'd tell my younger self about makeup & beauty
I often think about this topic when applying makeup, looking at old pictures from my early teens or giving my younger sister makeup tips. Experimenting with makeup is a huge part of growing up, and I think making mistakes helps you to learn what looks good on you and what doesn't.

Swatches & Review: Makeup Revolution Ultimate Pro Contour Palette
I have dabbled with contouring products before but I've never really found one that suits my skin type, is easy to apply and blend, and is actually within my budget! I decided to buy the new contouring palette from Makeup Revolution while I was looking through the new products page on their website.

Brow Update
So in one of my first posts, I spoke about my eyebrows and how I was going to try and correct years of over plucking with castor oil, as advised by a threading therapist... well, its worked!
I finally grew back enough to get them threaded.

Body Scrubs
I though I'd post about something a little different from beauty and makeup today... body scrubs! I have tried lots of different scrubs, which I've either brought myself or been given as part of a gift for birthdays or Christmas. There are two that have really stood out to me and that I've purchased regularly since first trying them.

Handy Nail Tips and Tricks
For ages, I've kept a little folder with beauty tips and tricks I've heard or seen. I also picked up some valuable jewels of information when I trained as a nail technician. So I thought that I'd share some of them with you :) I'll do more posts with skin, beauty and hair tips, but I thought it was only right to start with nails as that's my forté.

My Nightly Beauty Routine
A few years ago, I didn't really have a night time beauty routine. I used to just remove my makeup and moisturise if I felt like it. But when I hit 20, I decided that I should probably take a little bit more care of my skin. I didn't have very good skin as a teenager and always felt really insecure, like many teens, about spots, oily skin and large pores.

My Top Brow Picks
Following up on my last post, I though I'd stick with the theme of eyebrows and tell you about some of my favourite eyebrow products. Filling your brows in can be an annoying task but anything that makes it even just that slight bit easier is a winner for me.
I am a huuuuge fan of Makeup Revolution, a collection of competitively priced professional quality makeup products starting from just £1.00.
Confessions Of An Eyebrow Plucking Addict
Ok, so here's my confession... I am an eyebrow over plucker. Lets face it, its a habit that many of us are a little bit guilty of. Some of us did it when we were younger, others still do it now. I, unfortunately, fall into the latter of the two. I over plucked as a teenager and now I dream of beautifully arched NATURAL eyebrows, not having to fill them in every day.

Just A Little Hello...
Theres no other way to start without a little introduction. I decided to start this blog because, for as long as I can remember, I have been addicted to anything makeup/beauty related. Through trial and error while growing up (and believe me, there has DEFINITELY been some makeup errors in the past!), I have experimented with many different products, some budget brands and some higher end ones, and I decided that I want to share my passion with you.
