the versatile blogger award!

Hello lovelies! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and are enjoying the last few days of 2012 just before the New Year! Over the first few months of 2013 I'm aiming to shed a few pounds i have but on over Christmas, but i know after about a week a big mac or a chocolate cake will literally be screaming my name! Anyway, I have been nominated for the 'Versatile Blogger Award' by Elysia (littlebeautyblogg)....

..Are you hanging all your stockings on the wall? Hello lovelies! I just wanted to wish you a merry, merry Christmas! Hope you're all having a great day (even if you don't celebrate Christmas!) and are watching all the festive programmes on TV! LOTS OF LOVE.. Olivia ...

hair care routine!

I'm having my hair cut soon, so before i do, I thought i'd do a hair care routine. With these products I thought i could prevent and repair split ends, but i already had so many split ends to begin with! I have waist length hair so when i get it cut, if they cut too much off i think i may cry. aussie 3 minute miracle conditioner: reconstructer and luscious long. L'oreal studio silk and gloss...

favourite winter items

This is going to be a post on a few of my favourite things to have in winter, and seeing as it is getting on for Christmas i thought i'd better do it soon (despite the fact that winter lasts up until around march in the uk, especially where i live in manchester) So these are a few of my winter favourites: first of all.. DECORATIONS! next.. SOCKS!! or warm clothes in general and fairisle pattern. A...

mac eyebrow pencil in lingering

I recently went to MAC in my town center to pick up an eyebrow pencil. I had my sights set on the eyebrow pencil in Fling, as it states it a cool, ash blonde colour, just what I need (Well I thought I did anyway.) The woman at mac was so helpful, and advised me to get lingering, instead of fling, as fling probably wouldn't show up on my eyebrows, as they are pretty dark for someone with blonde hair....

Seeing as it is the 1st of December, i thought i'd do a Christmas wishlist! gold casio watch - amazon gorg christmas jumper - riverisland soap and glory glow all out -...

ootd/fotd#3

Hey lovelies.. So, I am so sorry for not blogging much during the week! I've had so much schoolwork and will continue to have quite a lot, but don't worry, I will still have time for blog posts! On Friday I went to Frankie and Benny's for my friends birthday meal.I had a really good time so I thought I'd show you what I wore and what make up I had on. back of the shorts shorts -...

current mascara routine

I would say mascara is one of my favourite make up items, simply because just a small amount can make such a huge difference to your face! I wouldn't go as far as saying I was a "mascara whore" in the words of Sprinkle Of Glitter but I've had a fair amount of different mascaras. Usually, I wouldn't only use 1 mascara, normally it would be one or two at the same time as different mascaras are used...

teeny weeny haul

Hello Lovelies i know i have just done a haul, and i should have probably waited and included this one too, as this is another small haul (poet and i didn't know it). It's actually even smaller than the last one. So, on Saturday I went to the Trafford Centre and whilst I was there I picked up a few things. I went to LUSH first, and after hearing such good things about the 'Mask Of Magnaminty'...

fotd #2

Hey guys! So, I'm just going to The Trafford Centre today with my friend, Georgia, mainly browse, but maybe pick up a few Christmas/birthday treats! Just thought I'd do a quick and simple face of the day! (Sorry for the dodgy pic!) I am wearing: Revlon ColorStay Foundation Benefit BADgal Mascara Rimmel Colour Rush Quad in Smokey Brun (the darkest colour to line my top lash line) MUA Eyebrow...

The Liebster Blog Award!

I am extremely new to the blogging community and haven't been blogging for very long at all, so when I recieved this nomination I did a little squeal and had to refrain myself from jumping for joy (no word of a lie). I was nominated for The Liebster Blog Award by the wonder Elysia from LittleBeautyBlogg (which I strongly advise you to check out because it is AMAZING!) And I am very thankful for...

Winter Lips

In Autumn/Winter as the evenings are darker I like to wear more lipsticks, as I'm a bit shy to bold lip colours in the day time. I have just discovered this lip combination as I was playing around with some of my make-up haha! Clinique High Impact Lip Colour SPF 15 £16.50 found here and a Colour Institute Lip Gloss (Not sure of colour/price sorry!) Swatches of them both Left hand...

Mini Haul: Boots, Topshop & Primark!

Shopping for friends is one of my favourite things, I just love looking at their faces when they open a present they've been looking forward to, so Christmas and birthdays are my forte. Within my friendship group, we tend not to buy each other Christmas presents because there is a large number of us (10!) but we do buy each other birthday presents! Now this present is work-in-progress as I'm going...
