Everyday School Makeup Routine

Personally I prefer to wear makeup for school as it makes me feel more confident about myself. Today I thought I would share with you my Everyday Makeup Routine for school. It's super natural because my school doesn't allow makeup (but oh well!!) 

Face
To prime my face I'm firstly use the L'Oreal Lumi-Magique Pure Light Primer as this gives a really nice dewy and radiant look to my face. I skip foundation for school and just conceal my under eyes using the MAC Mineralize Concealer as this is really good at highlighting my under eyes. To set that I use the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder as this keeps my face matte for around 5 hours which is good for me as my face tends to get really oily!! Next up I bronze my face using the Sleek Contour Kit and then use my I Heart Makeup Blush in Candy Queen Of Hearts.

Eyes
For my eyes I only use Mascara. I firstly curl my lashes with my Ted Baker Eyelash Curlers and then use Benefit's Roller Lash as a base and apply the Clinique High Impact Mascara for more definition.

So that's my Everyday School Makeup Look, I hope you enjoyed reading and maybe this has helped you to come with a look that you can wear for School!!

Postcards and Polaroids



Today I thought I would share with you another Room Decor post, as I really enjoyed writing the other one!! This time it's all about decorating your walls. 

With my Christmas money last year I decided to purchase a FujiFilm Instax Mini Polaroid and I love it!! I decorate parts of my room with the Polaroids I have taken!! Also around Summer time last year I developed a big love for Postcards and especially those from Paperchase!! I think these look super cute in my room and add a bit of personality to it!! 

I hope you enjoyed this little post and I can't wait to share more of my room with you!!

What's On My Iphone? | Spring 2016


I love watching these types of videos on YouTube, but I don't tend to see them as much on blogs. Today I thought I would talk you through What's On My IPhone and suggest a few good apps for you!!

So firstly my home screen is the Laura Ashley Pink Abbevile Wallpaper and I think it's really simple but pretty at the same time!! I then have my first page which is full with all the apps that come with iPhones. On the next page I have four folders and these are: Productivity, Extras, Social and Editing. I prefer to keep my apps in specific folders as otherwise it's hard to keep track of them all!! 

For my Productivity and Extras folder I just have again some more apps which came with my phone. For Social I have: Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and WeHeartIt. I also have a couple more but I won't show you those today. Finally for my Editing folder I obviously keep all my editing apps there. I'm not going to go through these either as I'm going to be doing a 'How I Edit My Instagram Photos' post very soon!! 

So that's everything that's on my iPhone, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I hope I've given you some more ideas for apps that you can put on your iPhone!!

Shelf Decor

If you've read some of my older posts on my blog then you will know I'm obsessed with homeware and decor. I've been thinking about doing a mini decor series for a while and today I'm bringing you the first post!! 

So I've decided to start with one of the shelves in my room as I'm obsessed with it. I had my room done in February and my new theme is pastel pink, white and rose gold/ copper. I love the way this shelf turned out and maybe you'll gain some inspiration!!

To start of with I prime my face using the Loreal Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer. I love this primer as it keeps my makeup on all day and gives my face a nice radiant glow.

What's In My Bag | Spring Edition








I love these types of posts so much!! I'm quite a nosey person so when I can found out what people have in their bags, I really enjoy it because I personally think that you can learn a lot about someone just by looking in their bag!!

Today I thought I would share with you, what's in my bag as I've recently got a new one and I'm obsessed with it!! 

River Island White Backpack // £26
So to start of with, my bag is from River Island and I'm obsessed with it!! It was £26, so slightly expensive, but so worth it. It has two compartments with the back one being the biggest and the front is slightly smaller. 

There is also a zip around the bottom which is only for show. The bag also came with some key rings on the zip, but I decided to take two of them off as I didn't really like them. However I did leave three on which are: Pink tassels, River Island sign and a small circle with River Island written on it. 

Phone 
The first thing I keep in my bag, is obviously my phone which is the blue iPhone 5c. I love my phone and have to have it with me at all times, I use it for if I'm out and about and I'm bored. However I will have a full What's on my IPhone coming soon!! 

Purse
Next up I have my purse which is from River Island, I got it for Christmas so I'm not entirely sure how much it was but I love it so much!! I keep my cards in here and also money. It's such a good purse and is the perfect size for my bag!!

Keys 
So I then also keep my keys with me, if I'm going out without my parents. I have a blue pompom on it which is from Primark and I think it looks super cute!! 

Makeup
So the final thing I keep in my bag is some makeup pieces. So I usually have my mascara, powder and lip product with me as I class these as my staple makeup items!! 

So that's everything I keep in my bag, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and maybe you've gained some inspiration for other things to keep in your bag!!

3 Ways To Make Revison More Fun


Oh that dreaded word, how everyone hates it!! Today I thought I would share with you 3 ways to make revising more fun!! Now I'm no expert but I have found myself some ways to make revising that little bit more bearable!!

Highlighters
I possibly talk about highlighters in every single studying post of mine, but they honestly help so much!! I recently bought myself a pack of new highlighters, that are pastel!! These make me want to revise so much more because they look so pretty on my page!!

Diagrams
Now I know that I'm not the best at drawing, but when it comes to diagrams you don't have to be an artist as long as you understand them then it's fine!! Diagrams can also be used instead of writing, so if you're fed up of writing a lot draw yourself some diagrams!!

Apps
My final tip is to use apps!! I have a folder on my iPhone with a bunch of revising apps on. One of my absolute favourites is Quizlet, which is basically a place to create online flashcards. This is a good tip if you're fed up of writing or you haven't had time to fully revise, you can pull out your phone and do a bit of revision!!

So those were 3 of my tips to make revising more fun, I hope you guys enjoyed and good luck with your exams!!

April Favourites


I actually can't believe that another month has ended!! It feels like only yesterday that we were celebrating the New Year!! Any ways today I thought I'd talk you through my April Favourites. I have been loving a whole bunch of products this past month, but most of them I have already shared in a previous monthly favourites!! 

Loreal Paris Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer // £9.99
So my first favourite of the month is a product I have been wanting to try for the longest time!! And it's the Loreal Pure Light Primer. One of the main things that drew me to this product in the first place was its Rose Gold packaging!! However the actual primer itself is amazing!! It gives a really nice dewy look to the skin and makes my makeup last all day!! 

Benefit Bad Gal Lash // £15.75
I received this mini tester of Bad Gal Lash for Christmas, however I don't think it's available anymore so I included the price for the full size product. Anyways this mascara is amazing it makes my lashes look super long and defined and to make it even better, it doesn't clump on my lashes!! 

Garnier Simply Essentials Rose Water Moisturiser // £5.10
Next up is a skincare favourite and I eerily talked about this is in my Spring Skincare Routine.This moisturiser is amazing and I have been loving it so much!! It really moisturises my skin and makes it feel super soft and as an added bonus, smells amazing!! 

Victoria Secret Fragrance Mist in Passion Struck // £13.24
My final favourite of April was the VS mist in Passion Struck. This smells absolutely amazing and I'm obsessed with it!! It's a really nice fruity scent and perfect for the spring time!! 


So those were my April Favourites, I hope you enjoyed finding out what I have been loving recently and maybe gained some inspiration for some new products you want to try!!

How to Stay Organised throughout Exam Season



Considering it's coming up to Exam time I thought it would be a good time to share with you some tips on how to stay organised. I really enjoy keeping myself all organised, especially when it comes to school so I hope that you also gain some motivation to become more organised (if you're not already) and enjoy reading through some of these tips.

Planner
So my first tip is to buy yourself a planner, this can either be a 'day to day' or a 'weekly' planner. These help to keep me super organised when it comes to revising as I plan out the exact days and times I'm going to revise. It also helps me to remember to do homework and also when to write my blogposts, overall I definitely think you should invest in a planner as they honestly help so much!! 

Highlighters 
This tip you have probably heard hundreds of times but honestly it works so well!! By using highlighters and colour coordinating your day it can really help. As an example you could highlight all exam related things in pink and all revision things in yellow. It's totally up to you but this tip goes hand in hand with your planner.

Alarms
So my final tip on how to stay organised throughout exam season is set yourself alarms. This may sound weird but when you need to take something specific into school with you for an exam set an alarm for around 15-20 minutes before you leave the house and that way your phone will tell you to pick something up and hopefully you won't forget it!! 

So those were a few of my organisation tips for exam season, I hoped this helped and good luck to all you of taking exams soon, you'll do amazing!!
