7. HAVE FUN!

 

 

1.Do you plan for each/some of your blog posts, if so, how do you do this?
I always plan for my blog posts now as I feel that by planning your blog post comes out a LOT more polished and proffessional looking, it also gives you time to make sure you love what you've written!



2.Do you have a blogging notebook/diary where you write and plan about things to do with your blog?
Not currently because i'm on the hunt for a new gorgeous notebook, so for the time being I jot down my notes and what not in my phone or on some sticky notes that I stick on my desk.



3.Do you feel pressured to buy things so that you have something to review on your blog?
Not in the slightest, if i dont feel that there's a product that im overly excited about then i just won't do a review or blog post!



4.Has your style of your blog posts/blog been influenced by someone else. If so, who?
Definitely, many different bloggers inspire me to improve my blog and inspire me with ideas. Most of all bloggers that do YouTube videos inspire me most of all because i'd LOVE to do what they're doing but dont have the confidence and choose to use my blog as a substitute!



5.What are your favourite posts to plan and write about?
Make-up ones are definitely my FAVOURITE, specifically ones on brushes and lip products!



6.Do you think that your knowledge of makeup (and applying it) has improved because of blogging?
100% because of blogging I have definitely learnt more tricks - but because of YouTube videos my knowledge and skills have definitely imporved!



7.Do you test all of products for a certain amount of time before you review them?
It all depends on the type of the product and when I want to put up a new blog post.



8.Do you have any other websites for your blog? (e.g, twitter, YouTube, Bloglovin' or a Facebook page etc. )
I have a twitter and bloglovin




9.Do you feel the need to buy something you have wanted EVEN more when you see your favourite blogger talking about it?
YESSS! Especially if two or more of my favourite bloggers talk about a specifi product i cant help but buy it...



10.Do you find taking pictures to be a chore, or not?
NO WAY! It's one of my all time favourite things, photography is something I LOVE to do, although i've only practically just begun blogging, it's something I think about and is probably one of the most important things in a blog post (to me)



Now for the people I tag:
Easmin from Ohh So Peachy
Louise from Beauty and Bad Taste

You don't have to do this it's just something that's a lil fun.

Excitement for the Future!

 

I seriously can't believe that May has just begun! As i've gotten older time definitely goes a lot quicker than i ever thought it could! This year has already proven to  be rather interesting and given me a lot more new experiences. First off -

• I'm now a senior in high school (grade 11) and it's definitely been a BIG change, my workload has definitely grown, which has put a lot of stress on me.

• Almost a month ago now I got my L's ! Driving has given me a lot more responsibility and my lovely parents also bought me my very own car! (just something little to learn in) But nonetheless I LOVE IT!!!

• In just over a week i'll be heading over to Thailand on a plane! This little holidays is extremely exciting for me and I can't wait to get to relax, forget about school and experience some pretty cool things in a total of 8 days!! (a blog post will definitely be up A.S.A.P after that trip)

• For the rest of the year I haven't really got anything planned except to -                         STAY POSITIVE, WORK HARD, CREATE MEMORIES, SAVE $$$ AND HAVE FUN!!!

The Essentials!

The Essentials!

 

 

 

Hellooooo!

 I've been super busy lately and haven't had time to write any blogs, I've been desperately trying to get something up and here it is! Today whilst at the shops I grabbed my three favourite products that I think are essentials and every girl needs!

My first product is the Maybelline New York 'the falsies volum express' flared. It's probably the best mascara out there in my opinion. I've loved this mascara for so many years and never found anything better. It was on sale at Target and I bought it for only $14.43 BARGAIN!

 

_____________________________________________________

 

The next product that I'd never actually had or even heard of until a few weeks ago is the brand BURT'S BEES. The lip balm is absolutely amazing, I choose the honey one with vitamin E. It's 100% natural and works like a charm to moisturise and repair your lips. Not to mention it lasts for ages! I also got this on sale for only $5.55 which is definitely worth it and actually a great price!

 

 

 _____________________________________________

 

My last product that I couldn't resist grabbing is the very famous Maybelline Baby Lips SPF 20 Lip balm. The one I chose is anti-oxidant berry, it doesn't really have any colour to it and is a natural toned colour. But for the price it is (also on sale for $3.95) absolutely amazing! It instantly moisturises but keeps them moisturised for around 8 hours and rejuvenated your lips in one week! Already my lips are smoother, more supple and have started to heal from any of my fine lines!

 

____________________________________________

 

Really hope you guys enjoyed this post please give me feedback and follow me, it'd be lovely and I'd be more than happy to follow your blog back just leave a comment below asking! Do we have similar essentials? Maybe yours are better than mine, tell me what they are?

Batiste Dry Shampoo

BATISTE DRY SHAMPOO

 

 

-blush

This product seems to be the biggest rave at the moment, almost EVERYONE has a can of this mystical stuff. Í almost ran out but thankfully Girlfriend has a showbag at the Sydney Royal Easter show this year with a can of this amazing stuff! It is one of my absolute fav's! If you are like me and your hair needs washing everyday because it gets greasy easily then you will love this, since having this product I've never seen greasy hair again. It's quite affordable and works wonders, almost like magic! A secret weapon for those bad hair days. (Which everyone has, don't lie!)

I've also heard of hair stylists using it on boys hair, so don't think this is just for us girls! For trendy boy hair I would recommend it.

 

DIRECTIONS:

1. Shake can vigorously and spray Batiste into the roots, keeping the nozzle 30cm from hair.

2. Massage through with fingertips.

3. Brush hair and style as usual.

It's honestly the most simple thing to do, instead of having to jump in the shower and spending ages washing, drying and styling your hair you can easily grad this 'go to' can and spray it in!

 

I Recommend this for:

•everyone

•boys

•girls

•greasy hair

•festival lovers

•travellers

I'd rate this product a 5/5 its honestly the best you can get!

 

Oh and whilst you're at it, check out their TWITTER

follow me on Twitter after you follow my blog, it'd be greatly appreciated!

I've also got a pinterest !

Nail Wraps - a Review and a How To:

Rebel Nail Wraps!

**My personal fav**

REBEL NAIL WRAPS - UK Global

I found this amazing little instagram account a couple of weeks ago and followed them think "hey, these are really cool! I'd love to get some of these!" So i followed them but only just recently did i have a proper look at these nail wraps. It's this new trend that's got tons of people interested, including me. And I guarantee you'll love them! Oh, and they're really easy to apply!

Here's the steps:

1. Simply clean your nails with nail polish remover, then dry.

2. Choose your desired design.

3. Select your size, peel, apply and buff.

4. Smooth over and file any extra parts.

5. Enjoy your amazing nail wraps!

Why they're great -

•NO DRYING TIME

•NO SMUDGING

•NO CHIPPING

They also don't ruin your real nail underneath, I recommend REBEL NAILS because they have so many good reviews, quite affordable and have the best designs, way better than any I've seen in local stores. 

I'd rate them a 4/5. 

** You can't go wrong with these beauties!!**
