Hello You Lovely lot!

I have been AWOL recently and I do apologise for that. I am really determined to get back in to blogging over summer because it is something that I enjoy so much! I just lack with ideas and motivation at the moment. So, hopefully turning over a new leaf, here id my first blog post of many! Of course it had to be a favourites. Favourites blog posts are some of the best to write because I just get to talk to you all about things I love, what could be better?!

Beauty / Skincare :

I have had so many Beauty/Skincare items that I have been obsessed with this month so it took me a while to just narrow it down to one. However, when i really think about it, it's clear who the real winner is.

NYX Prismatic Eyeshadow - Liquid Gold







My friend Nathan actually gave me this shadow as a little gift and I am in love. Whenever I put it on I feel as if my eyeshadow looks one hundred times better. I normally wear it with orange shades in my crease and it creates such a lovely smokey eye! Super easy to blend out and highly pigmented, incredible!

Music : 

Between when I wrote my last favourites post and now there's been so many artists and albums that I've loved and I think it's impossible to narrow it down to one because it has been such a long time. So here's a quick little list to give you the rundown of what I've been listening to!

Albums :

Harry Styles - Harry Styles
midnight - Lewis Watson
Sleep Is For The Week - Frank Turner
Speak Now - Taylor Swift

Songs :

Hold Your Tongue - Frank Turner
Heartbeat - Wildfires
There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back - Shawn Mendes
Power (feat Stormzy) - Little Mix

TV / Film :

If you know me (or follow me on Twitter because it's all I ever tweet about every night at 9pm) then you may be able to guess what I have been obsessed with recently!

Love Island

This is the third series of Love Island that I have watched and although I feel that this series has taken a while to get really interesting I fall in love with it more every single time I watch it. So far my favourites are; Kem, Dom, Marcel, Montana, Camilla and Gabby.

Photo : 

Maybe a month or two ago I went to a four day Frank Turner festival. It was one of the best four days of my life. Throughout that weekend Frank played my favourite song of all time twice. I took this photo whilst he was playing it the second time. The song means the world to me and I even want a tattoo to remind me of it!

Hello you lovely lot!

YES, it's that time again and YES I've been waiting to write this since the beginning of the month. These are without a doubt my favourite thing to write! As soon as I post one I want to write another one even though that would be so boring because it would be the same thing... I promised myself that I would wait until I had come home from my last exam before I would write this and NOW I HAVE!
So, let's go!


Beauty / Skincare :

This month there was no doubt in my mind as soon as I bought the thing that it would have to my favourite! And it is *drumroll please*....

M.A.C Mineralize Skin Finish

I'm not sure if this has been in my favourites before but if it has then oh well, it deserves to be in it again because it's so great! I was a bit dubious about buying this because my friend Izzi and the reviews on the website said it was quite shiny and one even said it made you look 'like a glazed doughnut' but I didn't listen to that woman, I wish I could say it was because I love glazed doughnuts, but it isn't. I hate doughnuts, anyway! I think this foundation gives a lovely coverage and it doesn't slide off my face like every other makeup product! I am the shade NC15 and I originally bought it because it was the cheapest foundation but I'm so glad I did, I've even gone without foundation for about a month because I ran out and didn't want to buy a drugstore alternative, I wanted the real deal, so yes, it makes my face look ok.


Music :

I never really had a favourite album or song until about half way through the month (which was only a few days ago but you know) and here it is!

Never Been Better - Olly Murs



I know this has been out quite a while but I've only really just got in to it. I went to see Olly Murs in April and he was amazing! He even spoke to me (I promise he did, honestly, I cried). One year for christmas I asked for Olly Murs' album and dad bought me a signed copy and I cried, so, every year since then he buys me a signed copy of his album and this was the first album that I didn't really listen to since I had so many exams and things, but I'm so glad that i did start listening!

Top Five Songs :

1. Beautiful To Me
2. Never Been Better
3. Did You Miss Me?
4. Why Do I Love You
5. We Still Love

Other Songs I've Loved :

How You Get The Girl - Taylor Swift
Bang Dem Sticks - Meghan Trainor
Spaces - One Direction
Fire Meets Gasoline - Sia
Who's Laughing Now - Jessie J

TV Show :

Natalie has made me obsessed with this but I am so glad, it's bloody brilliant!

Love Island



This show is addictive! If you don't watch it it's basically loads of people on a beach and they have to couple up but there's loads of plot twists and what not! Please watch it if you can, you won't regret it! Mine and Natalie's conversations are basically 'OMG' 'I hate Jess' 'Shut Up Omar' from 9pm every night!

Photo :

No doubt about it, this photo is my photo for everything at the moment, apart from my laptop background, that so far has stayed strong...


I still can't get over this photo...it's me...next to sprinkleofglitter?! Louise is so so so lovely and the fact i got to meet her still makes me emotional, she has been a big inspiration to me throughout the few years I've been watching her and she's had a big impact on my life. I cried a little bit before and after this and this will be a photo that I treasure forever!

What's Exciting About Next Month?

WELL LET ME TELL YOU! Next month is going to be the best month, not only have I finished my exams so my summer holidays have officially started but NATALIE'S COMING HOME! She's finished her year in Switzerland and is coming home for 4-6 weeks before she moves to Berlin! I am so excited to see her after not seeing her for 6 months and have the best summer ever!
