TIME OUT

Hey Lovelies so this post is only short and is going to be a little update.

I know my posts recently have been varied and not to a schedule (which I'm not worried about) and there hasn't been many pictures, I had some issues with my camera so I had to change my posts around which is awfully annoying.
I'm going to be taking some time out, a week or two at the max, just so I can focus on school work and get that out of the way and hopefully get some pictures sorted for when I start posting again.
I will be back after two weeks, or one and from then on I should be back at a schedule.
My apologies lovelies, stay happy and I'll see you soon!!

Keeping myself happy



I'm sure we all have times especially with school when we feel a bit down, maybe with stress or lack of sleep or we just don't feel 100% so I thought I'd share with you a few things I do that heighten my mood in hopes they might inspire you or even help you too!




1) Photo/Quote book - This is a little different than the quote book in my new year resolutions post as I started this book last year where on each page I stick a photo of either my favourite places, people or things and write inspirational quotes, It makes me feel better to read and to also to do.




2) My We Heart It Blog - I've had my we heart it blog for ages and I can honestly spend hours on it, I love hearting photos of make-up, fashion, people, animals, food, places and everything else you can imagine, putting them into sets and organizing them. It definitely makes me feel happier looking photos of nice things and being able to add them to my profile.





3) Listening to music -As simple as it is listening to music really does make me feel a lot better.




4) Taking Photos - I adore taking photos, even when I don't need cheering up. But It definitely does the trick.

New Year Resolutions

Recently I've seen a lot of other bloggers post their new year resolutions and I thought it was a good idea as you can see who's doing what, help and support them and even join them!
I decided I would post mine, I don't have many but a little does a lot!

(Image credit here)

My New Year Resolutions

1) Grow my nails - I've been doing this for quite a few months now, as I hated seeing people with lovely long painted nails and mine were short, so that's still happening.

2)Eat healthier - I go through phases especially when I'm in school where I don't eat anything which is bad, so I'm going to try eat fruit or vegetables during those phases.

3)Do exercise - I'm going to go for walks at night and have mini work outs in the evening, not to lose weight but to make myself feel happier knowing I have done some form of exercise.

4) Write a quote everyday - So I went to the store and got a pretty note book and decided I was going to write a quote for everyday, like little diary notes so I can read through them next December and remind myself of this year!

5) Read 20 books - I honestly love books but it can take me so long to get through them as I always get distracted and it takes me ages to read them so I have set a goal of completing 20 and I will reach it!

I would love to hear what new year resolutions you all have so let me know in the comments, I'm excited to stick to all of mine and so far, 6th of January I have managed them all!

RIMMEL WAKE ME UP REVIEW

RIMMEL WAKE ME UP FOUNDATION
RIMMEL WAKE ME UP CONCEALER

So in the Boxing Day sales I found myself in boots walking down the make up aisles as usual. I'd seen a lot of good reviews about the Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation so I thought I'd give it a go as I needed a new foundation so I picked it up along with the concealer.

RIMMEL WAKE ME UP FOUNDATION
I got this foundation in shade 100 Ivory, on my hand the foundation does look a little darker than my skin but it blends in and doesn't look dark on my skin at all. I'm used to using a shade lighter than my skin so trying a foundation that is my skin colour to be exact is new for me.
A little goes a long way! I only put the slightest bit of foundation on my hand and it covers my whole face which means it will last longer which is always a plus. It doesn't feel heavy or fade away during the day and it covers brilliantly so it meets the expectation of a foundation for me. I honestly think this is the best foundation I have tried and trust me I have tried so many, this is also a great foundation to start with if you want to find your foot with a good foundation and it was only £8:99! 

RIMMEL WAKE ME UP CONCEALER
Concealer is a must have for me as I use it for more of a "top coat" foundation as well as a concealer. I picked up this concealer in shade 010 Ivory, now I did think that it would match the shade of my foundation but it is lighter than the 100 Ivory foundation, but it blends in perfectly and you can't notice a colour difference at all. This concealer is perfect for under eyes so the skin looks a little brighter and not dull during the day. It also works wonders for covering up spots and blemishes! It works perfectly along side the wake me up foundation, so I recommend if you get any get the other as well!! It cost me £5:49 which is a relatively good cost for a good concealer.

There is no wonder there is so many good reviews about the wake me up foundation and concealer because they're honestly worth the money and fit the expectation for a foundation and concealer I do recommend them. If you do try them or have tried them in the past let me know what you think! Both these products are widely available in many stores that sells make up including boots where I picked mine up from.
