New Year Resolutions

Every year I make these silly resolutions which I never end up doing like most people. So this year I am making this blog post so at the end of the year I can look back on this post and see what things I have done.

So first off is to drink more water. It is something I really want to do for this year as it has no calories and makes you skin look better. It keeps you healthier as it cleans out all of the toxins in your body. Some of the amazing things that water does to your body is you can get softer lips, a natural glow and hair increased growth rate. So it's an alround amazing thing to drink!

The next resolution is to spend more time with my friend. I feel like over the year of 2013 I didn't spend as much time with my friends as I would like to but that is partly because I have a social fear which stops me from doing many things as just talking to my friends. I still have the fear but I would love to try to over come it as much as I can.

To work on my blog is my next resolution. I have had so much fun working on by blog and I can't wait to spend 2014 making it become a part of my life which is really exciting! I also love writing post it makes my life that little bit better and I can't wait to see what happens to it!!

The last resolution has to not spend money unless its something I need. Which means I will still buy the odd piece of makeup but random little things I am not going to be buying unless my parents pay! This is because in 2013 I spent so much money and I don't have any to spend on things. 

Winter Blushes

I enjoyed making my Winter Lipstick blog post I thought I would make a another Winter blog posts so today I am going to be doing my favourite Winter Blushes. I think blushes are essential to make sure your makeup doesn't become washed out. I usually like to go for lighter colours but I did try a darker colour than I usually use and I love it so I think I'm going to start using more blushes that are not ones I would look for.

To start off with an old favourite which I bought at the start of the year. It is the Bourjois Little Round Pot Blusher in the shade Lilas s'Or 33 which I think they have redesigned to lid so it might look different to the photos. First off it smells absolutely amazing! It has a shimmer which look like it will come off like you have just put glitter on your face but the shimmer is not noticeable its more of a natural glow. It is a dark pink/red colour which looks so lovely. I think it's about £7.99.


The next blush is my MAC Powder Blush in the shade Fleur Power. It is a light pink colour and it gives the effect of its cold outside. It is nice for all times of the year but I love it a lot in winter. It is a matte finish and even if you don't like the colour there are tones to choose from. It is a bit more money than the other two blushes at £18 but its so wonderful. I am definitely buying more after Christmas because the blush is amazing and I really want to try new shades.


The last blush I am going to talk about is the Sleek Shimmer Blush in the shade Pomegranate. It is £4.49 which is so amazing! It does have a shimmer as suggested by the name which gives it a glowing effect. The packaging is really nice and the smell is very sweet! You have to be careful with this blush because the first time I used it I look sunburned which was not good so you only need a little bit because it is so pigmented.

Winter Lipsticks

In winter I love to wear dark red lipsticks. So I thought I would share some of my favourite lipsticks to use in the colder winter months!

To start of with is my all time favourite red lipsticks which is Rimmel Kate Matte Lipstick in the shade 107 which is so amazing and its only £5.49. It does dry out my lips so I like to use my eos lip balm before putting it on but you can use any type of lip balm and I'm sure it will work just as well to make it not dry your lips out. It is a deep pinkie red colour which looks so nice.

The next lipstick is my first ever red lipstick which is the Rimmel - Kate Lasting Finish  Lipstick in the shade 01. It a deep red with a slight shimmer but not an overpowering amount. It is the same as the the last lipstick because there both are drying so its best to use a lip balm. It is also £5.49 which is a really good price.

The third lipstick is my newest purchase it is my MAC lipstick in the shade Dare You. It is a deep red I see it as a mix of the first two lipsticks as it has a slight shimmer but it comes off as matte which I love about it. It's really creamy and moisturizing so I don't usually use a lip balm. I think it looks so amazing but it is a high end lipstick so it it £15 but that's not as bad a price as most high end lipstick!

The last lipstick is another Rimmel lipstick which is the Colour Rush Balm in the shade Rumour Has It. I love the Rimmel lipstick as you may be able to tell because 3/4 on this blog post are from Rimmel! This lipstick has a medium shine gloss which I think would look great for Christmas. It is a pink/red colour but there are so many great colours in the collection to choose from so I really love that and it's only £5.99 which is amazing for what you are getting!
