Makeup Products That Are Worth The Splurge

I always think the hardest thing about makeup is deciding whether or not to treat yourself to that £15 lipstick or the £38 eye shadow palette, because it is a lot of money to be spending on one thing. So today I have gathered some of my favourite high end makeup products to show you that I think are 'worth the splurge'.


Mac Lipstick | Velvet Teddy
First is a Mac lipstick in Velvet Teddy which is a beautiful nude matte shade that you can wear for anything so is definitely worth the money. I think most of the Mac lipsticks are worth the money and some of my other favourite shades are Twig and Modesty.


Benefit Rockateur Blush
I mentioned this in my February Favourites post a little while ago, but I definitely think although this is quite expensive this blush has a lovely deep pink colour and is such good quality. 


Mac Mineralize Skin Finish | Soft & Gentle
I got this for Christmas and I can now understand why this is so popular because it is such an amazing quality highlighter and I think although this is a lot of money for a highlighter this one is so worth the money and will also last for ages.


Urban Decay Naked Flushed Palette | Strip
When it comes to palettes Urban Decay pretty much have it all covered and one of my favourites is the naked flushed palette because it's such a good all in one palette which is great for traveling. I think this is definitely worth the splurge as the bronzer, blush and highlighter are all such good quality.


Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
This is the only naked eye shadow palette I own and I would love to get some more but I think this palette has an amazing range of colours and a lot of them are nude so are very wearable for every day. 


Those are my favourite high end products that I think are worth the splurge and I also wanted to say thank you for 50 followers on here! I am so grateful to everyone that reads my blog posts every week, thank you so much!

Letting Go Of Negativity

As you can probably see already by the title is this is a different type of post from what I usually do, I have been sat on my computer for a while trying to figure out how to write this but I think I have got it now. Recently something has been bothering me with a friend and has caused me and quite a few other people some bother, it has surprised me how much one little thing has annoyed me and I haven't quite been able to shake it for a while.


I won't go into detail as that would be unfair on the person and also a little personal on my side but this one stupid thing has kind of weighed me down. Then a really good friend of mine told me 'if you know its not true then why do you let it get to you?' and that made me realise how I need to let it go if I ever want to stop worrying about it because its not my problem its theirs. So now my goal for this month is to start trying to let go of negativity and focus on all the good people and things in my life.


I know this topic hasn't exactly been very joyful and this post may come off a bit corny. But it is something I am so glad I got off my chest and wrote down, finally deciding to let go of this problem has really helped and I encourage you all to do the same if you are in a similar situation. If you have any thoughts, similar situations or even any more advice to let go of negativity please leave a comment as not only would it help me it could help anyone that reads my blog.

'Just because someone puts you down doesn't mean what they say is true, it only proves that you're better than them and their negativity'

Spring Q&A

Its finally spring and after taking ages to decide what post to do I have chosen a Q&A because I haven't done one in a while and I feel like its nice for you to know a little more about me. I asked on Instagram for some questions and I am going to answer all of them for you now.


What is your favourite song at the moment? 
This is so hard to answer because I have so many favourites! I can't just pick one so I would say my favourites at the moment are; You're Such A by Hailee Steinfeld, Lush Life by Zara Larsson, Hands To Myself by Selena Gomez and Mama Said by Lukas Graham.


When was the first time you wore lipstick?
I can't remember very well but probably about a year ago.


What is your favourite thing about YouTube?
My favourite thing about YouTube is how much you can learn and gain positivity from peoples videos.


What's your favourite makeup product of the month?
Definitely my Benefit Rockateur blush I have been using it nearly every day, it is just such a gorgeous product.


If you could be friends with any celebrity for a day who would it be and what would you do with them?
I don't know if You Tubers count but if they do then I would go shopping in Brighton with Zoe Sugg for the day because she is such a lovely person and I can imagine that would be an amazing day.


Favourite makeup brand?
Either Mac or Urban Decay.


If you had £100 to spend at any store where would you spend it and what would you buy?
Topshop because all of their clothes look amazing and I don't know what I would specifically buy but probably some new jeans and a top or two.


If you only had one makeup product to use what would it be?
Mascara because that is the one thing I cannot leave out of my makeup routine and if you're wondering my favourite mascara is the Maybelline Lash Sensational.


No makeup or no photography ever again?
Although this is a really hard decision probably no makeup because not picking up a camera ever again would be horrible.


Who is your celebrity crush?
At the moment it is Paul Wesley from the Vampire Diaries but it will probably change very soon.


High end or drugstore?
High end, I think its worth paying a little more for better products.


Thank you to everyone who asked questions on Instagram and also recently I have been posting on a Sunday due to always being busy on Saturday but I will hopefully start posting regularly for you all soon.

Who is your favourite blogger and why? 

February Favourites

Its nearly the end of February and can I just say where did the last two months go?! Although I am so happy that winter is over and I can finally start looking forward to summer. I have gathered a few of my favourites from this month to show you all in this post all of which I have been loving a lot this month.

Mac Lipstick | Velvet Teddy

I got this lipstick from my friend Hannah for Christmas and I love the colour so much along with many others. It is a matte lipstick and the colour is a lovely brown/pink nude and it is perfect for any occasion which is why I have been wearing it so much and it as taken a place in my February favourites.

Benefit Rockateur Blush

Again I got this for Christmas and this is such a lovely blush, it is a dark pink colour which I love to wear during this time of year and it is so pigmented so a little bit will go a long way.

Lush Prince Charming Shower Cream

I have talked about this product recently in another post but I had to include it in this one! Overall it is an amazing product that smells amazing and also makes your skin feel so smooth because of the cocoa butter in it. If you are looking at stocking up on shower creams I definitely recommend this one.

Adult Colouring Book | Secret Garden

Yet again another thing I was very kindly given for Christmas was this adult colouring book by Johanna Baeford, the designs in this book are absolutely incredible and so detailed so I can guarantee this is going to take me a while to fill in. But it such a nice thing to do in your spare time and I have been using it a lot recently.

Fujifilm Instax Share Printer

I have had this for a good year now I think and I have to say it is one of my favourite presents ever, it is a printer I can connect to any of my devices and print off pictures as Polaroids. I love the fact I can print off any pictures I want and I can't get enough of it, it is just such a nice way to have your pictures.

Urban Outfitters Polaroid Album

Linking to the last favourite I got this photo album for all of my Polaroids in London two weeks ago at Urban Outfitters. I had no where to put my Polaroids before and this is such a lovely way to store them and look back at! 

These are all of my favourites for this month, I can't wait for March now as I have so many good things planned. Also a massive thank you for over 10,000 page views on here!! I can't believe how many times people have looked at my blog and I am so grateful for all of your lovely comments! 

What has been your favourite thing this month? 

A New Obsession | Topshop NYPD Jumper

A while ago I found this jumper in Topshop, I had actually had my eye on it after seeing it on Instagram so I got it and it is now one of my favourite things to wear! Being Topshop it was quite expensive at £35 but for the quality you get I think it is worth the money.


I got the jumper in large as I prefer over sized jumpers because I think they are much more comfy to wear. The inside of the jumper is so soft and the fabric is reasonably thick so this jumper will not wear easily and will probably last me a good year.

Overall I love this jumper and it was a good buy, I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfy jumper. It's just so easy to throw on when you have nothing else to wear!
