This year I was even more set than last, I had every post planned and every title written. However life got busy, the weather got bad and I ended up running out of time and fresh content to post. I do feel like I've completely failed, as I set myself up for it to be so good this year. However I've realised that I expected way too much for myself, and set standards way too high and although targets and ambitions are great, and I believe that if you are determined enough you can do just about anything.

Products Worth The Price

Products Worth The Price

There are so many beauty products out their, so many brands and such a range of prices. The prices in particular are something which I question a lot, because although I love makeup and I want to spend my money on it, sometimes it can get a little bit out of hand, £60 for a lipstick (Louboutin, I'm looking at you) does seem a little bit ridiculous. These products are all things which I genuinely think are worth the money, and would continue to repurchase them at this price.

I have returned from my trip to New York which is amazing, I'm currently writing this post on the plane home- trying to get ahead of myself with written content. I had such an incredible time, and of course made full use of the shopping, especially Sephora which I was so excited about. 
I think I made about three trips to Sephora on separate occasions where I actually bought anything, however I was desperately hunting down Champagne Pop and went into every single one I passed to ask if they had it- it was no where to be found sadly but I did get some other amazing products. I tried to limit myself to only buying things which aren't available I'm the UK, or are very tricky to get hold of. My only exception were a couple of things which were do much cheaper, I just couldn't resist.

 When I first got my ears pierced I used to regularly change them, and collect up earrings like nobody’s business. Now however I’ve given up slightly, not really changing them up all that often. But at the same I don’t have a huge selection anymore, and have my go to pairs which I tend to just never take out. Wanting to change this up I picked out a pair from BodyJewellery Shop, where along with jewellery for just about any part of your body they also have some great ear piercing jewellery. I have a particular pair of earrings to show you today, and I will link some more which I love at the end.

I currently own seven, and I feel like their could be a few more after my trip to New York where they are at a much more affordable price.

Although I do love taking a lot of care, and put a lot of effort into that perfect eyeshadow look. However sometimes you simple do not have time, and it all does seem a lot of effort for everyday. Plus I always think that you want to make your makeup make an impact when you put that extra effort in, and if you do it everyday it will become the usual. These eyeshadows are all the ideal shades to sweep over your eye, blend and your good to go.

Rimmel is such a well know, well respect and reliable brand in the highstreet stores, and always a fail safe option for me. I have honestly found a bad product, yes, products which don't personally work for me or my skin type but for other people I could see them suiting them much better and working just how they were intended too. A while back I was in desperate need of a foundation, you can see the haul here where I bought multiple bottles in fear of none of them working. And as I spoke about here, this product was a bit of a surprise for me, initially I hated it but now I love it and simple cannot get enough, with it becoming my everyday fail safe foundation.

Multi Vitamins for dieters is something I never pictured myself taking, but I promise you they are not as scary as they sound. What I didn't realise is that by dieting you are cutting down on your food intake, and therefore you are also missing out on certain minerals and vitamins which are very important in your body to keep you healthy, and in the long run will help with the weightloss. Forza is fast becoming a very popular brand, with a range of celebrities relying on these supplements- although personally I can be quite skeptical about this so I now I have the opportunity to try this myself I can form my own opinion which I can share with all of you.
