I moved!

So the beauty blog has been renewed, improved, and moved to another blog do don't miss out and check it out!! HERE> glitter berry blog!!

My Top Favourite Foundations

These are my tried and tested favourite foundations which each give me something different, some are more light and some are more heavy coverage 
but all look flawless on the skin, 

I have normal to dry skin and some very red cheeks to cover so that mite give you a better idea if these foundations are right for you, but I hope you enjoy and try some of these things out.

♥

The first foundation i want to talk about is the L'Oreal true match, its feels super light on the skin but is buildable for a medium to high coverage, I can achieve flawless results with a buffing brush, this is my go to foundation for nights out where i really want to have a full face of makeup on with no imperfections coming through but i can still sheer it out for every day. 

 

Bare minerals is something my mum has used for years, I didn't think much of it but when I borrowed her foundation once i was extremely impressed! is feels like your not wearing anything on your skin but it looks so glowy and flawless, its a powder that almost melts in to your skin, its very natural but still a light to medium coverage

I use this almost every day and its the longest lasting foundation i have ever used. 

The CHANEL Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation is super light! its very similar to a tinted moisturiser but there is a little more coverage and it lasts a little longer than a tinted moisturiser would, I wear this foundation on a day when i don't want to wear makeup but I have to, its so comfortable on the skin and looks so natural

I can put it on with my fingers like a moisturiser add some powder and be done and it just looks so glowy and pretty and lets my skin breath.

So here was my run up of my all time favourite foundations and what occasions I reach each one I have used these for a few years now but not much has been able to push these out of my top three so I truly recommend you trying these!

The best beauty finds on ebay!

Hey Glitter bugs! so recently I have been going a bit eBay crazy and ordered a few inexpensive beauty things, all under £5 and I was so impressed with the quality of the products considering the price there was no way I could keep it a secret! 
And I'm sorry if your purses and wallets get a little lighter after reading this but I'm sure it wont be regrettable   
so lets get on with it! here is the best of eBay beauty!

 

♥

 

These are my favourite eyelashes I have ever used, they have invisible bands! which is hard to find, they are so soft (don't feel like plastic) and you can get them in loads of styles, from supper natural to crazy dramatic. 
They are £1-£2!! So It feels stupid spending £4 on one pair now. 

 

 

  These are a awesome dupes for the real techniques brushes, I own both and they are just as good, I have owned my eBay ones for maybe a year and a half now, and washed them every two weeks and no shedding! these go for £4 for a small set of them, or £1 for 1 brush. so its definitely worth giving it a try
compared to 3 brushes for £20 and 1 brush for £10

 

 

These are very popular on YouTube, and I just love the way they look! plus they are really functional,  and for some reason very expensive in stores?

I found this lipstick holder for £2 which is a great deal! they also had brush holders and other displays for less than £5.  

 

 this is a eyelash applicator, this was less than £1 and this makes my life so much easier, its great for holding the lash while placing them onto the eye and also you can use them to pinch the falsies and your eye lashes together, I find these so much easier than my tweezers because of the wider edge, so definitely a pound well spent!

 

 

 

You can get so many different types of these pallets on eBay, eye shadow, concealer, foundations, blushes, so this is a great way to build your makeup collection fast!

 These are £4-£5 which is amazing for what your getting, the pallets I received was very good quality, but I was a bit sceptical about buying makeup on eBay at first, so I checked the reviews just to see what people had to say and 9 out 10 said it was good so I ordered mine and I am very happy with them.

my friends are always asking me to do there makeup so now have every ones colour in foundation! 

 

 

 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post, I had a lot of fun trying out these new things and i know all of you will enjoy them too, also I will be making YouTube videos soon and using them on my blog so stay around for that.

Newspaper Nails

 

 

Hey guys so I have been doing this on my own nails for a while now so I thought I would share it with you its super easy and I always get complements when I do this!

 

♥

 So all you need for this is:

• Vodka or rubbing alcohol
• A pale nail polish
• News paper

 

This is super simple all you do is paint your nails with the pale polish and let it dry completely,

After your nails are dry, dip your fingers in the vodka for about 5 seconds, then place a piece of the news paper on your nails for about 15 seconds pressing it down firmly do this one finger at a time when you lift the news paper the ink is left behind!

  

 

Hope you girls liked this tutorial!

DIY Holiday Gifts

 I think all these are perfect for giving to friends especially if your giving them to say a group of friends, because they are cheep to make but it looks like you put a lot of effort in and all these you can customize for each of your girlfriends or guyfriends. 

 ♥

The Sharpie mug's

What you need:

• Cheep mug (the cheep ones have a thin glaze which will make it last longer).
• Sharpies (WARNING) the colored sharpies can change colour when baked so best to stick with black.
• White vinegar. 
• Cotton pads.

First wipe where your going to be drawing on the mug with the vinegar to remove oils  after doing that avoid touching the surface.

Next just draw your design let it dry, then go over it again

 and allow it to dry,

Place in the oven when you oven is cool and LET THE OVEN HEAT UP AND COOL DOWN WITH THE MUGS INSIDE!

Once your mugs are in the oven turn the oven to 220-230c or 350F and cook for 30 min.

When the the 30 min is up let your oven cool completely 

Then your all done you can get really creative with this one and you could also hide some goodies inside:)

Christmas cookies 

Now these are super simple but i think these are great,

All you need is any jar and get any cookie or brownie recipe from the internet. 

Place all the dry ingredients in the jar, then add a little card maybe stuck to the side or wrapped around the top with some ribbon with all the wet ingredients they will need. You could maybe add a cute cookie cutter attached with some ribbon around the top.

I don't know anyone who wouldn't love these!

Jolly rancher lollys

This is soo good! just place your sticks on a pan with foil or wax paper and then just place The jolly ranchers on top of the sticks in any way you like then place in the oven for 4 mins at 350F after they are done you could maybe decorate then with ribbon or Something.

I hope this helped you guys, i am actually using all of these ideas for gifts so shhhhh....;)

Marc Jacobs beauty is here

Hey girls! so coming across this in sephora was pretty exciting, this line came out on August 9th with 120 pieces in all. 24 shades of nail polish, 16 gel foundations, 10 eye shadow compacts, eight concealers, and nine blushes. Each category is jam-packed with bold colors, and there are also makeup brushes, a brow tamer, a mascara, a bronzer, and more! so they are defiantly not starting small.

♥

  And with a brand like Marc Jacobs you can expect the packaging to be amazing with the sleek, black-and-silver compacts which all ways feel special pulling that out of your purse in public.

I know this was a short one sorry but I hope you girls enjoyed!

Hey everyone! so are blog got asked by the gorgeous girls of A beauty piece to do the

Beauty blogger tag! which was created by The beaubow so go and check there blogs out!

So Lets get started, here are the rules:

• State that this TAG was created by The beaubow
• TAG 5 Beauty Bloggers
• Title the post: Beauty Blogger TAG to show what the post is about

The Questions 

1) Name a beauty routine you rarely do?

Painting my nails probably, i love doing them its just making time and not getting distracted.

2) Is washing your makeup brushes something you do regularly?  

I really should do this more! and people say you should wash them once a week but i don't think i could commit to that.

3)How long will you last with chipped nails?

I am so guilty of this! maybe a week some times.

4)How long do you put off buying/replacing a beauty or nail polish product even if you need it (i.e. top coat, foundation ECT)?

Over the years my makeup collection has rapidly grown! due to my crazy obsession to buying it and packaging...oh the packaging gets me every time, so i have basically three of everything so if i run out i use another i have.

5)What is your worst beauty habit?

Taking off my makeup at night! I am sure we are all guilty of this and i have got a lot better at this because i know its bad for your skin

6)Name something non beauty related that you put off doing all the time?

Definitely school work! When it comes to a topic i am not interested in i am the biggest 

procrastinator.

7)When going out somewhere, do you leave getting ready to the last minute or not?

Not at all! i all ways make sure i have enough time to do my makeup, hair and outfit because it is one of my favorite things to do but this means i am late for every thing haha

8)Can you commit to spending bans?

Honestly i have never made one because i know if there is a sale or something i desperately want there is no stopping me.

9)How organised is your makeup and nail polish collections?

As for makeup it is all in these draw things i try to keep one draw for face one for eyes and so on i have a post on my makeup collection here:

         how i store my makeup

And for nails i have crazy amount of nail polishes so i have been keeping them i a shoe box but i am planing on getting a nail rack.

10)Whats the longest time you have gone with out writhing a blog post?
