Beauty Buys | March 2014 |

Hey guys! It's been a busy week and I've gone through lots of beauty products this month! I topped up on some bargains so here's my most recent beauty buys! 

Heat Protectant Spray

99p

I picked up this Heat protectant whilst browsing in the 99p store. It's re-labelled L'Oreal from somewhere like china....I think!

I know it sounds so dodgy but it really leaves my hair so soft and it smells so lovely! 

I also picked up the same brand of Deep Conditioner from there too and they are such good value for money!

Rimmel Match Perfection 

103 True Ivory

£6.99

Savers

I LOVE this foundation! I bought it last year at a Higher Price from boots and it was such a good match for my skin! I ran out and had trouble bringing myself to pay the same price for another bottle and opted for a Miss Sporty Foundation instead. 

I noticed Savers had a little deal on this one so I nabbed it!

(I'm such a cheapskate haha!) 

 

Collection Lip Definer

1 Nude Pink

£2.79?

Boots

I picked up this lip liner as I needed a new Nude one, however it's exponentially darker than any nude lip ever... disappointing!

I still wear it however blended with my Collection Lipstick in Shade 12 Tea Rose!

Playboy Play it Pin-up 2nd Edition.

£6

Amazon

I had a whiff of this whilst I was in boots one day and it smelt heavenly! I was a big fan of the 1st edition bottle which had a pink bow (so cute!) but was taken aback by the price tag!

I went onto Amazon to find myself a deal, and ended up purchasing two bottles for just under £13! Result! Such a flirty perfume! MUCH RECOMMEND!

I was also given a few Benefit Goodies by my sister! YAY Freebies!

Benefit, They're Real!

Mascara

I've been trying this for a week or so now, and although it makes my lashes apparently darker it doesn't really make them all WOW like the name suggests! A real disappointment.... maybe it's the size! 

Benefit Bad Gal Lash

Mascara

I haven't tried this one yet but i'm quite excited at the aspect of the name! However i'm skeptical as my last benefit mascara experience was a let down! Time will tell!

'Sheer Facial Lotion'

Benefit

I think this is just a fancily worded backet of moisterizer, so im not sure what to say about this! I'll give it a go however and if it kicks the eczema off of my face i'll sing it's praises!

It's Potent! Eye Cream

Benefit

Again, a fancily worded Eye Cream, I don't even know what eye cream is for? Am I the worst beauty blogger in the world? Definitely!

It gives you 'brighter, younger looking eyes' so i'll use it and see if my eyes become that of a Twelve year old, innocent and on the cusp of secondary school.

So that's all my Buys! I know it's not terribly impressive but by heck it's a blog post!

My Final Major Project | March 2014 |

Hello! Sorry I've been away for a little while, It's been my College FMP these last few weeks with the live Theater Performances running from the 19th-21st!

Me and my fellow Techies, have been running a promenade theater performance for young school children about the human body for our final project this year.

The general idea was that you made your way through the experience, passing through the eardrums into Billy's body where there were Drummers. 

You then made your way past the lovable Iris in the Eye room, through a corridor into the nostrils where you were greeted by the disco dancing boogie boys. You then traveled into the Mouth Room were Mr.Mouth had a game to play.

 Past the touch wall and into the Operation room where they played a Puzzle Piece game!

The finale was a singing of Heads, Shoulders, Knees & Toes in the Brain Room which drove us crazy after playing it all week haha!

It consisted of lots of structural aspects including tent like rooms and lots of UV Lights & LED's.

 There was also a butt-load of costume and make-up which I was in charge of and I can honestly say I don't want to see another sequin or feather for a while now! 

Although It's been a pain in the bum at times (3 hour get out!!) it felt like we were working in a Fun House? We had to reset each room every time and you could easily get lost in our theater layout haha!

Anyway, enough babbling, I'll share the Photos, I know it's not spectacular, but from a bunch of kids that would rather sit on photo-booth and warp their faces than do anything (lolol) We did good!

How I Style Culottes | SS14 Trends |

Ok, So I've already touched on how much of a big hit Culottes are going to be this year! I felt it upon my duty as a blogger to purchase some and to style them for you! 

I Already have a Video over on my YouTube Channel with a few looks including these Culottes!

You can watch it here.

Please take a moment to subscribe if you have YouTube! It's so much fun to make fashion videos!

My Culottes are from ASOS and they're a gorgeous Art Deco pattern on a Bright Orange Palette. I LOVE THEM. I got mine from Ebay however they are still listed on ASOS and you can purchase this pair yourself here.

CASUAL SMART

I've styled the Culottes today in a Smart Casual look, Smart because of the HUGE shoes and the clutch, but casual with the crop top and bowler hat.

Bowler Hat

Forever 21

£12.50

White Crop

H&M

£3.99

Textured Clutch 

Primark

£6

Art Deco Print Culottes

ASOS

£12.50

(eBay find for only £3.99)

UNIF Hellbound Dupes

£32.00

AliExpress

These Culottes are a little long for my tiny legs so I thought I would incorporate my Fabulous UNIF Hellbound Dupes to give me a bit of height. 

I'm planning on taking the hem up to 22 Inches soon so They're better suited to my teeny-weeny-ness.

Throw on a Leather Jacket over this look and you're ready to go!

I really love these trousers! I think they're such a staple piece for my wardrobe and with so many fab pairs to choose from you really can't go wrong!

That's all on how I style these Culottes for now, I'll post a Casual College OOTD with them in very soon!
