Looking for the perfect foundation? Look no further!

Hello lovelies!


Finding your perfect foundation can be very tricky, there are lots of things to think about - shade, consistency, coverage and so many more! I know as soon as  I walk into Boots or Selfridges looking for a new foundation,  I have foundations being launched at me left, right and center!  Although foundation reviews can guide you a little bit, what worked and looked amazing on someone may not look as good on someone else. I'm sure you've all been in the situation when you try a new foundation that looked amazing on a blogger/youtuber/friend and then it has looked a bit rubbish on yourself (basically my life). And seeing as foundation is going to go all over your face, you want to find the one that makes your skin look amazing! With this new tool, you are able to be matched up to a selection of foundations that have been chosen for you based on your preferences and what you have already tried!

This foundation finder can be found at http://www.beauty.ps/tool/foundation it's totally free, and you just sign up and then you're ready to go! You then answer a couple of questions to help get your recommendations as suited to you as you possibly can - skin tone, skin type, coverage etc. Then you rate products you've already tried, so with good products they can find ones similar and with products you haven't rated as high they can avoid them! They then show you a list of recommendations with a link to where you can buy them! It's really quick and easy, and helps so much!

If you're on the lookout for a good foundation for summer then definitely check out http://www.beauty.ps/tool/foundation  because it really does help! I think there will also be some more features coming soon which i am so excited for!

They also have a blog http://beauty.ps/blog/ which is all about foundation too!

Thanks for reading, enjoy the rest of your day!

Hello lovelies!

I hope you're all well and having a lovely start to the weekend! Today's post is going to be about a new discovery of mine - BangGood.com! Which is a wholesale website based in China. They sell pretty much everything, from electricals to clothes, so they cater for basically everyone! Naturally, I headed over to the beauty section and also the jewellery section!

The first thing I got were the 4 Piece Pure Goat Hair Brush Set, and I must say they are in close competition with my Real Techniques brushes! The bristles are so soft and they wash really nicely, and there hasn't been any shredding of the hair! I love that they have a white tip so you can see when they are clean or not! They are super dense, and I love the angled brush for my foundation at the moment, and it's also amazing at blending in concealer, although I do prefer to use the tapered pointy (?) brush for that! Even though I don't own the Sigma F80 I think that the flat top brush would be a great dupe because it is super dense and great for foundation! The brush set only retails for £13.14 which is amazing for four brushes (£3.29 each!) and I'd highly recommend! Especially if you are looking for some inexpensive brushes that are of good quality too!

The second thing I got was this gorgeous Silver Circle Texture Tersely Bracelet,   which is so simple but so cute too! I'm not a massive jewellery person but I love this bracelet because it isn't over the top or too in-your-face but it just adds a little bit extra to an outfit, and also goes with everything! This bracelet is only £1.25! But it doesn't feel like it's cheap at all - it's quite weighty which makes it feel a lot more expensive that it is! I love this bracelet so much, and I think I may get the gold one!

The last thing I got was this gorgeous Collar Necklace. I've seen a few of these floating around in New Look, Topshop and Asos but seeing as the one from BangGood is only £2.50 how could anyone pass that up?! Like I said, I'm not much of a jewellery fan but this is such a statement necklace and I think it will look lovely paired with a plain t-shirt to jazz up the outfit a bit! I can't wait to wear this Collar Necklace in summer and I think it will soon be making it into my summer fashion staples! 

Despite BangGood being based in China, there is free shipping and also the products arrive quite quickly, it only took 2 weeks for mine to arrive which is very impressive seeing as I have ordered things for eBay which have been from China and it has taken over a month to arrive! I don't think I can rave about this website and it's products enough! I think my favourite product out of the things I have received would be the Brush Set! The brushes are just such good quality!

Have you tried anything from BangGood?

Thank you for reading, enjoy the rest of your weekend!

summer's in the air, baby heaven's in your eyes


Hello lovelies!

You may remember the other week when the sun finally came out to play! I didn't expect it to be sunny so I actually hadn't made any plans so I spent the day in the garden which was surprisingly nice! In the evening my sister and I decided to go on a bike ride! Although living in a town, behind our house we have the trans penine trail which is really nice to walk through in the summer! I thought I'd take some pictures because I thought it looked quite pretty with the sun shining through the leaves on the trees! I thought I'd do a few more lifestyle posts on here because I love having a little nosey into what people have been getting up to and I think posts like these are a great way to get to know a bit more about the person behind the blog too!

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed! Let me know if you like posts like these so I can do more/less of them!
