Some good news!!

OMG, It's been so long since I have blogged, uploaded videos for YouTube and I have hardly been on twitter.
So what I have I been up to ay?
Well I recently started college, currently studying Beauty therapy :). So that has taken up a lot of my time, as it's the most important thing in my life right now. I'm all about EDUCATION, EDUCATION AND WELL YES EDUCATION.
Another thing I have to tell you is that my sister lost my camera in July in France and i bought a new one but that broke and I sent it to get fixed and it took nearly 3 months!! Yes 3 months it took to get my new camera fixed. So tomorrow I go to Argos to pick up the new camera. so you should expect more blog post from me.

Here is a list of what I have to blog about-
ILLAMASQUA EVENT
MAYBELLINE EVENT
THE BODY SHOP EVENT
NYX LIPSTICK SWATCHES
LOADS OF HAULS
LOADS AND LOADS OF REVIEWS(illamasqua,mac,nyx,the body shop, maybelline etc)
MAKEUP STORAGE
SKIN CARE ROUTINE

Btw I made a few videos in august that were called august favourites do i upload them still but it's now October?

Clarins Event

I was recently invited to a clarins event (recently being a month ago :), I had no camera at the time to blog :(. This event was to launch there new nude inspiration collection which is Clarins Autumn collection. >> Click Here <<> website. I met up with Jen at the station and together we went to the event and I saw the lovely Soraya, who i previously met at the Bazza event. We were then shown the new collection from Clarins and my mouth started to drool.



We got given 9 eyeshadows, 3 mascaras, 6 lipsticks, 3 concealers, 1 nude eye shadow palette and blusher and highlighter and 5 skin care products :)

Now for the swatches-

This is such a pretty blue, i love wearing this on my lower lash line or on my tear duct(inner corner).

I love this colour, I've actually been wearing it as a blush :)


This colour is perfect for the crease, it kind of reminds me of 100 strokes from mac bbr. But BETTER!!


I adore this colour i love mixing it with hot chocolate :)



Midnight blue is a gorgeous navy blue, perfect for smokey eyes.



This is a gorgeous neutral colour if you are to scared to wear colours :)



Again this and hot chocolate are perfect for the crease if you do not want to use a black eye shadow.


Pink frost reminds me of all that glitters from mac, but this is a creamier texture. I love putting this on my inner corner.



When I first swatched this colour i was amazed. I have never seen a colour like this. It's like a dark grey with blue and silver undertones.

I will swatch the lipstick tomorrow :)
