Time for a new schedule!

Hi guys,

So it's been a while since I posted something last hasn't it?

I apologise profusely for that. I swear college will be the death of me.

Anyway, what with Christmas coming up and New Year's which will follow soon after that, I thought I would skip forward a few months and make a new years resolution....in October. (It's not really a new years resolution then is it? Lets call it a new months resolution for the sake of my sanity)

But yes, you heard me. You're not going crazy.

I've thought about this blog quite a lot this past month and have put it off for a while but now that I have kind of settled into my second year of college, I think its time I set apart a day or two in my hectic life and dedicate it to you guys.

(This is where you cheer loudly at your computer screen)

So, I have decided that for now I will put up a new blogpost every Friday. Hopefully, by mid November I will have more inspiration and ideas on what to post for you.

BUT: I'm always open to recommendations or requests so if there is something that you really want me to review or shed some light on, then please feel free to let me know via any social networking site. (I sound like a commercial lol)

Also, I feel like this blog is visually quite poor so if anyone of you are whizzes on the complicated subject that is Blogger then again, let me know :)

Hope you're having a wonderful day/evening and if there are any Muslims reading this now, Eid Mubarak!

Mini Eid Haul!

Hello there,

So Eid is literally round the corner. I've heard lots of rumours that it might be tomorrow but something tells me it won't be. Anyway, I just thought that I'd share with you all some of the beauty products that I've bought to do my makeup this year.

1) Real Techniques Eyes Starter Set (£21.99)

I'm really excited to use this set because I've heard so much about it. I guess because I've watched Pixiwoo on Youtube for so long that I couldn't not purchase these brushes. The eyes starter kit comes with five brushes: the base shadow brush, the deluxe crease brush, the accent brush, pixel point eyeliner brush and a brow brush.  I guess these are the worth the price because even after Eid, I know that I will use them all the time. They are unbelievably soft and even though these brushes are directed towards being used in certain parts of the face for certain jobs, I like that you can switch it up a little bit and use the same brush for so many jobs. I can't wait to use these!

2) MUA Mosaic Blush in English Rose (£2.50)

I've been watching Becca (voussontbeauetbelle) on Youtube for a few months now and she always uses this product on her cheeks. It looks amazing on her and that's why I decided to buy it. It has a lot of different blushes all pieced together to create one big blush. At first, when I applied it on my cheeks I found that it had a little pinky purply tinge to it but when your face catches the light, it looks really nice. I guess this can be used as a blusher everyday or it can be used on the apples of your cheeks and the bridge of your nose as a highlighter. Even if your makeup is simple, you can still get a radiant shine from a product like this so I think it's great so far and I'm looking forward to using it more.

3) Eyelure Naturalites 155 (£5.35)

I've decided, this year for Eid, I'm going to take a plunge and do something I've never done before. Yes, wear fake eyelashes. Normally, the thought of something against my eye horrifies me but this year I've decided to go for it. As you might know my real eyelashes are, to be honest, not that great so that is why I decided to purchase these particular eyelashes. They claim to be ultra lightweight and have a natural texture so I am looking forward to wearing these. I hope they live up to their expectations! 

That's my mini haul and I hope you enjoyed it. Let me know what makeup products you use on special occasions.

Have a nice day.
