January Favourites 2017

This months favourites is quite small but they are all brand new things to me so its a nice change. However its the first month of the year and I haven't been shopping yet so, hopefully next months will be better and I'll find some new and more favourites. But if you want see what I have been loving this month then carry on reading, first of all is my beauty favourites.

My first favourite this month is a lipstick by Rimmel London. It is one of their new Matte lipstick's called, 'The Only 1 Matt Lipstick' and got mine in the shade Trendsetter which is vert similar to the MAC Velvet Teddy. It is just slightly lighter than Velvet Teddy but is honestly my new favourite lipstick! The formula is great, it is matte and it do stay on your lips for a while not Kylie a while but it's great. I have been wearing everyday since I bought it back in December. I 100% recommend it and any of the colours as there are some beautiful ones in the collection.



Next is a long awaited one and I have been itching to write all about this but have waited until I finished it, which was a few weeks ago. And that is the TV Show, Gilmore girls. I have been watching this for a while and finally this month I have finished all 7 seasons but I haven't started to watch 'year in the life', as sounds weird but its nice not to watch something all the time and instead i've watched youtube and some movies instead. That doesn't mean i don't love the show, of gosh no its the opposite of that.  Honestly this is now one of favourite tv series and I am already wanting to purchase the box set so I can watch it all the time even if I have no internet or stop having netflix.

Next is a movie I saw in the Cinema when I went down to Essex with my Family after Christmas, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Technically it is a 'December Favourite' but it is still out in the cinema (actually not sure) but I wanted to mention it! I think everyone had mixed ideas about this movie but oh my gosh it was amazing, I loved it all so much and will be watching it again straight away when it comes out on DVD. I keep trying to get my mum to see it so I can go again. They have also just announced the name for the new star wars movie and I am so excited!

The last 2 are music favourites, the first is the song How Far I'll Go by the wonderful Alessia Cara. It is the song from the new Disney Movie Moana. Some of the youtubers I watch had been raving about it and I had heard parts of it in their vlogs and snapchats but I never listened to it and then I decided to give it a listen. When I first listened I knew most of the lyrics as I heard some of the song and it was added to my favourites on Spotify straight away! It is such a great song, and I love Alessia Cara as you guys know. Can't wait to watch the movie when it is out on DVD.

Finally is a movie but it is all the complete soundtrack from the movie. Again it is a Disney Movie but it is honestly great! It is Trolls. I have been listening to the soundtrack on repeat non stop for the past week, I am so obsessed. It such a happy soundtrack and I love all the singers/actors in it, from Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Zooey Deschanel and Ariana Grande. The movie is fabulous too!! I recommend it so much, I have fallen in love with every aspect of Trolls! And found a new love for Justin Timberlake.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you have all had a great start to 2017 lets see if we can make this year better than last year! I hope you enjoyed this post, I'll see you all next week.

Make-Up Haul

So I was in need of some new things which you guys will have seen before but I bought a new foundation and have been wearing it for a few weeks. I have fallen in love with it! However it sucks that even the lightest shade is slightly too dark.

But lets get into the products I have picked up recently. First of all was a new eyebrow kit, so you have seen this before. I really want to try a nyx one that is like a dupe of the dip brow from Anastasia beverly hills, but I haven't managed to pick it up yet and I know I like and can use this one. This one is a shade too dark though, which is annoying but I shall try to make it work.


I got another repurchase, and this time it was the maybeline colour tattoo in the most popular and typical shade ever, but it is honestly my favourite eye shadow and colour. The shad is of course, On and on Bronze! I got my first one back in September 2015, which actually longer than i thought. But I do wear it quite often, by itself and with my Naked 2. It is a great base but also a great plain colour on your eye. One of my favourites! Might have to get these in different shades too.

The next two, and final two, are completely new and random purchases if I'm honest. The first is a new foundation, usually this takes ages but I saw it and thought "I have heard good reviews and it's my colour let's try it!" And I have been wearing every since I got it and it is fabulous. It is almost my skin colour, only a tad too dark but you can't really tell so it's great. It is the L'Oreal True Match foundation. I agree with what it says on the packaging, it is super bendable and I honestly love it so much. It is a great foundation so far. 

Finally is a lipstick, which I have honestly been wearing nearly every day since I got it back in December. It is one of Rimmel London's new matte lipsticks, in the shade 'Trendsetter'. It is such a perfect nude colour, and is almost the same as Velvet Teddy by MAC. It is slightly lighter then Velvet Teddy but its just as good and not as much. So if your on a budget and and want a good nude lipstick then try this out! There is such a great range of colours in the collection too, I think I will be picking up the red or pink nearer summer time.  

I honestly love these products so much, they are great and can all be found at the drugstore which means they aren't too expensive. Again I have linked them all so you can find them online. Thank you for reading and I will see you next week .

2017 GOALS

A new year has begun which means a new set of 'goals' are in order, and I put a lot of consideration into these this year however some are the same as last year due to them not happening. I'm not really sure what will happen this year, I feel like it will be a good year (hopefully) as mum and I might be going to some places in Europe and I am turning 18 in March.

I actually sat thinking about my goals for this year and it has taken me a while to come up with some things.

1. Pass my Theory Test 
2. Pass my Driving Test 
3. Become more independent 
4. Get a job
5. Generally be a happier person
6. Spend more time with my friends
7. Go to London for my 18th
8. Go to Amsterdam
10. Travel to new cities with friends
11. Be happy with my self, in every way from my body, to my mental health, to my friends, to my life in general.  This is my main goal of the year and well I think it will be difficult but it's worth a shot, even if i'm not 100% by 2018 but i'm nearly there then I will be happy. As I will have tried. 
12. Be healthier
13. Complete my Queen Scout Award
14. Become a Scout Leader
15. HAVE FUN

The main focus this year is more travelling, and I have always wanted to travel and it will be great to share these all with you too. Mum and I are actually in the process of planning and booking London for my 18th which is super exciting. 

Being independent links to passing my Driving tests, travelling more but also getting a job. Especially as I'm turning 18 I will be an adult which doesn't seem real and even though I will still be at Sixth Form for another year I won't have the independence of University this year but I want to be prepared for it all and not rely on my parents as much.
