Bright lips and #eyebrowsonfleek Ad.

Welcome to week 2 of my happy week series! This week has been full of exciting things, the biggest thing I'll leave to the end! I received 2 Mac lipsticks, one off Mac directly and another one I bought at a discounted price. Both are lovely in their own ways but I couldn't have purchased two totally different liptsicks! Velvet Teddy Ss you can see from the photo, I'm hideous at taking pictures of promoted products! It's such a nice colour, way more pink toned than I thought. I'm not sure if it was strange lighting in photos online but I always thought it was more brown toned. It goes on smoothly and I'll be doing a make up look based around it soon, so you'll find it here when it;s live. Overall, it's a really good lipstick and I thank Mac for sending me it! Royal Matte This lipstick I bought at a discounted price, Mac did not send me it for free. I was actually speaking to J azz and well, she always convinces me into buying things I don...

A very Younique review.

Image
Todays post is a bit different and it's something I never thought I'd review, purely because I'm a bit scared about trying different products other than my comfort zone ones; one word, spots. Anyways, I was lucky enough to be given a sample of Younique's foundation, which has been going viral with people drawing lines on their faces with sharpies (PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF CONTOUR, DO NOT DO THIS!) and it being made out to be this magical foundation. I was also given 3 lip glosses, one of them I am wearing on the picture below and the others I'll leave for a rainy day to review. As you can see, my face has a lot of issues, new spots, dried up spots, scaring, redness and just general uneven skin. The colour of this foundation is very yellow toned so it looks a tad off in the pictures. When looking for a new foundation I always look for a few things; how it applies, how it looks and how it wears. You can find the lovely Sarah here , give it a like and tell her tha...

Christmas want list- 2015

Image
Christmas is on the horizon and I'm getting very excited, Costa have their Christmas drinks out (minus the Hot Apple, to mine and my Mams great disappointment). Around this time everyone tells me "Anna, I just don't know what to get you for Christmas!!" " Money, I'm poor." Below I have created my top 5 things I wish to receive off the big fella, I don't care if these are a bit strange, I want them, okay?? Unicorn Okay, so maybe this one is the most unlikely present I will receive but a girl can wish! I love Unicorns as you all may (or should) know. I have 5 Unicorn teddies on my bed at all time, apart from when Austin is staying because he just throws them on the floor- how rude! I would be a very happy girl if I could pet a Unicorn and call it mine, so Santa, you better get your thinking cap on! Urban Decay ultimate palette This palette has been floating around the internet for a while now, I hate a very known love at relationship with Urb...

Look at me now- One year on.

I often spend most of my nights looking at old photos because I have no friends and there is a limit of how much Netflix you can watch without going crazy. Timehop reminds me every day how much I've grown, not much in size but as a person. Last year I was sitting alone on a bench at dinner time thinking "What the feck are you doing here Anna?" T his year I'm sitting with a bunch of freaks who I love dearly, eating Nandos and actually have something in common with them. These people, these people are my friends, not my acquaintances. Last year I hated my body, I'd put on all my weight and I wasn't in a very nice place. T his year I love myself, for once I actually love myself and it's great. Go Anna, go! Last year I was holding on to my old friends by the skin on my teeth, literally doing anything to keep them. I failed, obviously, because now we don't really speak. That's okay, because I have new friends and a new life and so do they. T ...

Urban Decay Naked Smoky palette| First Impressions.

This is the first post I've actually wrote in ages. My other posts, bar my birthday post have been hiding away in my other folder, but now they have run out and I need to blog! Whilst I was in Paris (which was amazing) I visited Sephora and picked up a palette I've been eyeing ever since the date came out. I can spend silly money on foundation, concealer and even mascara, but I feel sick at the thought of spending £38 on some Eye shadow. As it was my birthday and you're allowed to spend a silly amount of money on things which you don't really need, I bought it. Okay, so maybe I did buy it because the packaging is beaut and maybe I did buy it because.. Hello? Urban Decay. Truth is, I don't really like it. the colours are too dark for my skin tone, they are so hard to blend which means you can't even blend them out to a lighter shade. I wanted to love this product because so many beauty gurus love it, obsess over it and I've wanted it for so...
