After what feels like the longest and most miserable month of the year, January is finally over! So what better way to celebrate than with Valentine’s Day? But hang on, you still need to plan a breath taking make-up look to seduce your valentine…

If you haven’t planned anything, fear not because I’ve put together a Valentine’s date night look. So whether you’ve booked the best restaurant in town or are going out with the girls, you will be looking your best.

Here is my Valentine’s day look:

December Makeup Haul

11 Comments

Make up haul

Hello lovelies,

Today I can finally share with you my recent makeup purchases. Over the month of December I was making beauty purchases but not blogging about them to maintain my festive post schedule. Now I have more time to share reviews with you so here is a collective makeup haul.

Urban decay full spectrum paletteUrban Decay Full Spectrum PaletteSo I got this palette at the start of December and I have not stopped using it since. Honestly, it is so versatile and I love it so much. I’m by no means a make up pro but with the variety of shades available, I have been experimenting loads! The only negatives I would give this palette are that some colours are really hard to use as you have to use a lot of them in order to get some colour on your eyelids. Apart from that I love it !

Urban decay Vice Metal Meets Matte Lipstick Palette

Vice Metal Meets Matte Lipstick Palette

I’d never bought a lipstick palette before and never knew that they even existed! But I can safely say I am happy with my purchase as it gives me a variety of colours to use on numerous occasions rather than forcing me to use one colour all the time with a simple lipstick. My only gripe with this palette is that I don’t find it easy to apply the lipstick with the brush. Maybe urban decay could improve on the brush in the future.

That’s all for now, I’m off to play with my new purchases. Leave me a comment below letting me know what you purchased recently and whether you’ve tried these products.

Lots of love,

Charlotte xoxo

Q&A: Answers!

1 Comment

Hey everyone!

 

Hope you are doing well. Let me just start off with apologising for my absence. Unfortunately I was really ill last month and have also been focusing on my final year exams so as you can imagine it has been hectic.

I am finally going to post the Q&A that some of you participated in. I hope you enjoy it! Here goes:

 

If you could wish for 1 thing, what would it be, and why?

 

To pass my final year of uni with flying colours as I have worked so hard for this and it will determine my future.

 

 

What’s one piece of advice you’d give your 10 year old self?

Just relax and have fun. Life will get more serious later ha-ha . Also, 18 is not an old age as I remember thinking it was!

 

 

 

If you had to pick a different niche for your blog, what would it be?

Maybe a cooking blog where I would post my recipes as I love food so maybe I could share that passion with others.

 

 

 

What was your favourite film of last year?

I love films so it’s hard to say! I think I would say Down by love as it has inspired me to write about it in my dissertation. This is a film about a love story between a prison warden and an inmate. It also reminds me of being in France as that’s where I watched it.

 

What are your perfect bath salts products?

 

I don’t use bath salts myself but I do like bath bombs. Usually I love to get these at lush as they have a super strong scent; however I don’t think they are natural. Alternatively I love to get bubble bath liquids from body shop. My favourite one is the honey bubble bath gel!

 

Lots of love,

Charlotte xoxo
