DIY: Flower Crown

Hi guys so I'm going to briefly explain to you how to make a easy do it yourself flower crown. If I knew I was going to do this blog post I would of included pictures along the way so sorry guys :( but i'll try my best to explain to you how I did it and add pictures at the end of the finished product.
So I think flower crowns are so cute and beautiful for the fall time and also if you just want to do a fancy dress or maybe for a event that's going on. When I wore mine it reminded me of a bridesmaid haha. They are super cute and adorable to wear not forgetting easy! 
So here's what you will need: 
-thread 
-needle 
-flowers (I used some from my garden and cut some off but you could use artificial ones or anything like Daisy's will work as well) 

So first what you do is get all your flowers, like I said I cut mine from the garden. Mine were pink and all pretty much the same size but I think it would look even more adorable if you also used leaves, Daisy's, different sized flowers but that's all your choice. 
So get your needle and thread and measure it round your head to fit. 
Once you done that cut it and tie on to needle like usual. 
Then start threading it through the middle of the flowers and keep on going until your flower crown is completed. It's easy as that! I alternated the flowers as well so some were facing each other and some weren't as it gave it a better realistic effect. Make sure to tie it as well so you can pop it on your head afterwards.  
So I hope you understand as they are honestly super easy to do and fun to make. You could also use it to tie round a bun as that also looks nice. :) 
And another idea is to instead of cutting it tie a knot at the end instead and let it be one long string and do a plait in you hair whilst clipping it at the top and plaiting it in with the flowers. This look will look amazing with someone with longer hair. 
So thanks for reading! Hope you make one as sometimes Claire's and other places like Topshop are quite expensive just for a headband when you can make one instead.

Forever 21: Love & Beauty

Forever 21 have a small makeup range called Love & Beauty and I wanted to show you what they have. I have never bought or used any of them but based on what I can see I am going to show you what they are.

The products of Love & Beauty that they have at Forever 21 are:
Love & Beauty Sparkling Lip Gloss
High Shine Lip Gloss
Lip Balm Trio
Shimmer Eyeshadow Compact

There are 22 colours for the Sparkling Lip Gloss and they go from thr Palest pink, the brightest red and the nudest brown.
They look really nice, the colours are pretty but It looks like it could be really gooey which I don't like when it is too gooey and sticky. That sounds rude but I dont mean it like that!!
They are only £1.65 each which could either mean they are really cheap and good quality or cheap and crap quality.


I might do a review on this one day to tell you what I think and remind you about this blogpost. 
 


The Trio lip balms come in 2 different sets. Both have a range of colours but you may prefer one set to another depending on the colours of makup you wear and what you are into.
I think these are quite cute and each colour comes in a small pot. Obviously there are 3 but compared to the single lipgloss they are more average priced with similar proces to big brands but that may just be my opinion.
They are £5.65 for 1 Trio and I think maybe they could be worth the price I won't be doing a video on it but it sounds like the kind of thing you would have to try out first as you don't hear alot about Forever 21's Beauty Range

There isn't too much to tell you about the High Ship Lip Gloss or the Eyeshadow Compact except that each only come in one colour or so the website says. It shows that the High Shine Lip Gloss comes in a light pink and the eyeshadow comes in a dark grey-black with a hint of silver shimmer.

I think you should check these out and comment your opinion on them. I will do a review on the Sparkling Lipgloss oneday but I will have to purchase it first as the nearest store is an hour away

I heart love...

So as Amber started a beauty bargain of the week I'm also going to start a I heart love of the week. It's similar the the beauty bargain except its just what I have been keeping my eye out for a while and think are I really nice beauty essential or a must have. Some will be expensive some wont be it all depends anyway enough about that! So my I heart love today is the Revlon lip butters. I'm really liking the lip butters as they have a really nice colour range whereas there also quite pigmented considering there not lipsticks but there not lip balms of such. So you can pick up these gorgeous things from places like Boots or Superdrug for about £7.99 and now Boots have new shades available! There so pretty as they start from pink tones to more coral tones and they also have darker tones like red or dark purple so there is a great range to choose from. I'm not sure but I'm guessing they will smell incredible as they give there lip butters different names like raspberry pie and cotton candy. They leave your lips really soft, smooth and healthy looking.
So there was my I heart love hoped you liked it sorry it was kinda short check out our channel MsBeautyInTheMakingx
