The way to perfect brows....

So I love finding step by step images off google and using them as blog posts but I only use the ones that I know how to do so nobody needs to worry about these not working. They can probably be easy to get messed up but everybody makes mistakes and practice makes perfect.

1. The brow before any products.
2. Using the skinny brown wiz pencil in dark brown colour shape the lower part of your brow. Startthe line about 2-3cm in.
3. Taking the dark brown brow powder combination use the darkes brown to shade in the lower half of your brow with an angle brush.
4. Then take the lighter shade filling in the top half of your brow with an angle brush.
5. On the lid of the pencil there is a brow brush. Brush your brows to evenly spread the product and take off all the access powder.
6. Using a flat brush take a concealer and clean up your brows. Do this on the top and bottom of your brows.
7. Now apply a waterproof brow gel to seal product in and keep your brows in place.
8. Now take your highlighting pencil and place it right below your brow to brighten up your eye.
9. Finishing product.

Why Nail Polish turns your nails yellow?

So I was reading that this happens and I researched to find out why:
I have also found out how to stop this happening :)

Your nails are actually very compacted, dense squares of epidermis cells, which are what make up your skin. They are considered dead but are filled with a type of protein called keratin. The nails grow from the nail beds out and they take about six months to grow completely.

Because nails are just packed squares of epidermis and protein, they need oxygen and hydration to slow down their dying process. Without enough oxygen and enough hydration, they become yellow as they continue to die while growing from the nail bed. This is partly why it’s not unusual for someone older to have yellow nails, as the aging process keeps hydration and oxygen from nails.

When you cover your nails with polish, this also starves them of oxygen which they get from the air around them, and helps to dry out your nails. They then decay more rapidly so they become yellow and sometimes brittle. The keratin protein in nails is not being fed when you wear polish which in turn leads to yellowing

Your nails also absorb some of the stains and dyes from the polish. They are not a solid surface like glass, but have some pores and ridges in which your polish can settle. The dyes used in polish are very strong and resilient as they’re meant to avoid chipping or fading, so it’s no surprise that they can permanently stain nails. The yellow color may go away as the nail grows out but rarely can you remove it completely just with polish.

Polish and remove are not the only causes of yellow nails. Smoking can make your nails yellow as the tar and nicotine in cigarettes make their way to your nails through the bloodstream. Psoriasis or a fungal infection can also cause yellow nails, especially on the toes. You might also stain your fingernails if you come into contact with certain foods or food dyes on a regular basis. Typically nail polish is very safe and a good buffing can remove the yellow color between polishes.

Sorry if thats a bit boring but I didn't know this and am interested as I dont want yellow nails.

How to have a succesful Pamper Evening.

So Alot of people have busy days either at work or school. Times can be hard and stressing and everyone needs time to relax.
I have never really had a pamper evening myself but I know how to and I think it will work.

One thing I love to do is have a relaxing bath. Baths are really relaxing and its a great way to close your eyes and think about nothing. You will have nothing to worry about and nothing to get stressed over.
You should run your bath so that it is warm but making sure its the right temperature for you.
I am quite sensitive to heat as I have always been so I wouldn't be able to tell you an exact temperature as It probably won't be right for you.
Another thing you could do is turn off you actual light but light candles instead and place the around the room. Becareful as you do not want to burn yourself.
I also recommend using bath bombs and Luxury Bath Melts which smell amazing if bought from Lush. They smell amazing and don't even cost that much

There is more than just having a bath to a successful pamper evening though. Heres more things you could try.
Some people like painting their nails. This can be fun as well as relaxing and you will have perfect painted nails at the end.
You should defenelty wash and moistorise your face as this will keep your skin feeling fresh and clean. Removing makeup will also reduce the amount of spots you will get.

This step is what a lot of people do. Face masks. You can get them from anywhere, drugstores, Claires and maybe even chemists.
They make your skin feel fresh and cleaner but is also very good for your skin. It is one of the things I do regulary but I never have pamper evenings so I do it seperatly.
When you have finished cleansing and relaxing have some supper, Watch a dvd or tv programme and have an early bed. As sleeping is probably the most relaxing step of all.
Hope you enjoyed my post and have a great pamper evening.

Forever21

Eeeee I have officially found my new favourite shop.
So I am really obsessed with the youtuber Stilababe09 a.k.a Meredith.
Shes a teenage makeup guru who is sooo pretty and Is American.
I thought she was around 13 like me but it turns out she drives a car :/

Anyway she always shops at Forever21 as I saw on her closet tour and I immediatley checked out the shop as her clothes were awsome.
So it is officially my favourite shop!! Unfortuantley If I want any clothes I will have to order online as the only Forever21 shops on the UK are in Strafford, Oxford and somewhere else. But neither of them are near my and I would have to travel 3 hours to get to Oxford so :/ Great!

But I can still order online so thats fine. If you spend more than £50 then you get free delievery so I might save up and get more than one outfit at once. I really recommend this shop because It isn't too expensive but I suppose it isn't cheap either. Anywayz I defenetly think you should get somethfing from there coz I know I will!!

BYS Wet Look Lipgloss

So I have the odd few BYS (Be Your Self) products that arn't always that good and I never do negative reviews so I figured its about time I did one.

The BYS Wet Look Lipglosses can be found on the website:
http://www.byscosmetics.co.uk/BYS_Lip_Products.html
However, I wouldn't recommend you buy one.
I bought a light baby pink BYS Wet Look Lip Gloss and I really disliked it.

First of all it made my lips look alien and really weird. I'm not sure wether it was becuase of the colour or something I dunno but I would never go out in that colour in public unless for a fancy dress party.
Seconds, They made your lips feel gooey and sticky. I have said once before on my You Tube channel that the Colour Works London Lip Glosses were the same but it turns out that they were out of date. The BYS ones however, arn't out of date. So they are just really badly made.

I recommend they either do something with the products or just don't buy them because I really dislike them. Yet we all have opinions and they are only £2 each so If you want one get one but be warned.

Review on lush lip scrub

So I'm going to do a blog post on something my friend got me for my birthday which is the Lush Lip scrub in Bubblegum. I have always wanted this product since the moment my eyes set sight on it and when I found out I was going to get it I was super excited. I love the products from lush as there handmade and fresh so you don't need to worry about any old junk that's going into the product. On the back it also tells you the sell by dates and who the product is made bye which is really cool. On the lid it describes the product and is said to taste like 'candy floss'. What is really good about the lip scrub is that it's edible! Obviously you can't eat it but you can lick off the excess that is left on your lips which is really cool. The first time I tried the testers in the shop I didn't no they where edible or not but I found out later on that it was alright to lick off as its mostly made from sugar giving it a really tasty, sweet candy floss taste. What you do with this product is apply straight to the lips with your finger and scrub on. This helps to get rid of dry, chapped lips giving it a smooth lasting finish. It also makes them feel super soft so when you come to apply lipstick or lip gloss it gives a really good finish to the look with your lips being smooth. Once you have applied the desired amount to your lips you can either lick of the excess (which tastes so good) or just wipe of with a wet towel. Either way they both work and leave your lips as good as ever!
So I really think this is a really good product to invest for the chilly winters as your lips usually get all chapped in that season and it really helps with that. Lush also sell this product in popcorn, mint and sweet and loads of others depending on the shop your in, or you could look online. There around the 5 pounds mark and I think is worth it. I can't really compare it to other lip scrubs as I haven't tried any but I still give this product a 5/5. So I hoped you enjoyed this blog post!

I Love....

I love.. I think is a new brand for sented kind of stuff. It was one of the things I saw in Superdrug and thatI have seen somewhere else before.
Today I bought an I love... strawberries & Milkshake Lip balm as I had purchased the I love... strawberries & milkshake Shower smoothie and Bath Creme as part of my mothers day gift for my Mum tomorrow (Luv Ya Motha).
I was going to give my mum one but I know she wouldn't used it so I used the money for her other part of her present (Not telling any secrets).
However this lip balm is a beautiful pink and smells exactly like Strawberry Milkshake! There are many other flavours including Mango & Papaya and I cannot remember the others :/
They smell so good and almost better than the body shop Lip Balms. Amd I am saying almost because The Body Shop Lip Balms are sooo good.
Anyway they also do a Body butter for £2.05 which is the same price as the Bath Creme and the Shower smoothie so oretty cheap. The Lip Balm is only 99p!! Its almost Unbelievable and I will be buying more of other flavours very soon.

Thanks for reading

Rimmel London Wake Me Up Concealer Review

So I have wanted this for so long and It is one of the products that was on my Rimmel London Wishlist that I created a few months ago.
I hadn't owned any concealers before this which is suprising seen as I have a crazy amount of makeup.
I had been going shopping anywayz today so I went into Superdrug to purchase it.
It is £5.49 which isn't cheap but I don't think its that expensive either so I bought it.
At the time there was only 2 testers which were Ivory and Light Ivory and none of them were my colour. There was 2 other colours without testers which were light beige and soft beige so I got soft Beige.
I didn't actually know if it was right for me and I think now it is a little bit light but there wasn't anything darker and It will do for now. Im not sure if there are darker colours but there probably will be its just there was only 4 colours at the Superdrug in the St Georges shopping centre so I didn't have much choice.

Overall I think there arn't any real problems with the concealer but I recommend being careful with the colour you choose and make sure you use testers first incase they arn't right.Thanks

Beauty Bargin Of The Week / BBOTW

So I have done this before and I havent done it every week because believe it or not I have quite a busy life. Hehe
I usually look on boots or superdrug for my bargins so beauty bargins will probably be drug store like this one.

Today my beauty bargin product is from Superdrug.
Its is the L'Oreal Paris Triple Active Light Moisturisor.
The price of this is £4.09 and I just think its really worth the money. This is actually a product my mum owned but never used. It was my regular product till it ran out and when I saw it on superdrug I wanted it to be my beauty bargin.
It is a moisturisor for Dry and Sensitive skin with is what my mum has. I don't so I guess it wasn't perfect for my skin type but if you have Dry or Sensitive skin then Its defenetly worth using.

It says it has Vitamin E and protects the skin from the sun's harmful rays. It Improves the skins hydration throughout the day and is Dermatology tested.
I recommend this and I think it is very cheap.
