HEY THERE!

I'm alive! I'm happy! And yes, i will be making an appearance in the crazy London sales - more to come! xo

Do they know it's christmas time at aaaaaaaaaall?

Good morning readers! C’est moi, getting back into the swing of blogging! Again, apologetic apologies for missing so many days!

So, I thought I’d catch you up on some of my life, purely because you’ve missed so much!

Today is shool Christmas dinner day- but am I having it? Mais Non! I am having a picnic with my bestie, Ebbz // Ebblar // Screblar (long story), so I am going to brimming full of party rings, jaffajaffaaaaa cakes, pringles, chocolately goodness. Mmmmm. Being healthy, we’re having fruit shoot. ;) 

However, more excitingly, tomorrow is the last day of term- which means during the 2andabit hours we are freed to galivant around school, dancing and singing Wham and the likes at the top of our lungs, we're allowed to go OTT, major style. Tinsel, coloured tights, baubles, leg warmers, and most excitingly, glitterry shimmery goodness, in the form of wonderful makeup. We do have to remove it for final assembly, as my school is rather le strict on rules, it's definitely something to take advantage of! :') 

Later, i think i'm going to get round to reviewing the Tangle Teezer, and Burt's Bees LipBalm trio :) 

Have a good day!

Meet me under the mistletoe...

Mistletoe kisses! Eek! 

Well, my lovely readers, who i have lately forsaken as i've had many many important matters to attend to (christmas concerts etc..and..well, i've got news!), so i've kind of skimped on posts:/ i'm really sorry about that! But yknow, sometimes life is just...obstructive.

So...what's changed?! Well, my room is finished! huzzah, hurrah and wonderment! It's all pretty and nice, and once i've sorted out my cameraaaa, i shall capture it's essence of joyous beauty etc! Plus, my christmas tree is up! It's all brown and gold and lovely, and the fairy looks ever so happy to be perched on top!

Hmm...what else was there? Oh yeah! His name is Henri. And well, yknow. oaieh;vivldzkjblwiaugfwlIUWFLAIVBLJBlkjbsfdlkjhrtuh he's lovely. He just came over for dinner with my family and it went really well!:O Then we sat and watched Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, so atm, i am just content. 

SO, christmas eh? Well, so far this week, i have distributed among my nearest & dearest, 

-a bottle of Barry M limited edition Lilac Foil Nail Polish

-2 tubes of maltesers

-1 toblerone

-1 Rimmel "Champagne Diamonds" single eyeshadow thing

-1 NYC City Quartet eyeshadow palette

-1 bottle of Avon's Viva Pink Nail Polish

-2x pretty bracelets

-1 tube of Collection 2000 Creampuff Matte Finish lipgloss 

YAY! i've got so much more[to say, if every simple song i wrote for you, would take your breath away, i'd write it alllllllllllllll!] to give, so i'm rather excited! 

But what have i recieved?! EEEK!

-Burt's Bees Lipbalm trio (review to come - RTC)

-Tangle Teezer Compact (RTC)

-gorgeous necklace from Lewis (boy best friend!)

-Christian Lacroix for Avon  Nuit mini - bottle

- key ring

-charm bracelet avec a gorgeous snowflake charm

AND OMG OMG OMGO MGOMG OMGOMGOMG most excitingly- the No7 Mini Beautifier Kit (RTC right now...) 

So- No7's Mini Beautifier Kit? 

Well, the packaging is divine, literally, right up my street. It's kitschy, yet delicate and just gorgeous! I think i might have "Ahhhhhhhh"d when i saw it:') But what's inside is truly spectacular!

The three eyeshadow shades are what first caught my eye- Truffle, Innocence and Wheatsheaf. They are literally straight out of the Naked Palette, only much more shimmerry! Yay! 

The box is fastened by a magnet, which is handy when you just need to fling it open and whack on some make-up! 

The eyeshadows are super pigmented and blend really well. It's kind of like having 3 staple colours from the Naked Palette in a mini case. Also in the box:

• Two super lush eyeshadow brushes, which are lovely and spongy!
• No7 High Shine whisper mini- which is lipgloss, and has really sweet beige-y pink with pieces of gold shimmer, so all in all very gorgeous. Not sticky, and very flattering- may treat myself to a full size!
• Exclusive to the box, Bronze Shimmer Rollerball - which is very cute and goes on very nicely. The shimmer isn't quite my interpretation of bronze, but more a mushroom-y shimmer with bronze specks- but nonetheless, gorgeous!
• Mini No7 Mascara- Extravagant Lash i think- which i have a full size of. Considering using this for lower lashes due to the dinky, but usable wand
• For the size of the box, a huuuuuuge mirror! And unlike other makeup pallette's mirrors, its clean and looks all new and shiny. Hurrah!

So all in all, absoloutely, stunningly gorgeous! A nude makeup lovers dream come true! If you're stuck in last-minute makeup buys for that makeup lover in your life, as a christmas gift- i wholly recommend this. It's absoloutely gorgeous! 

Remember, December...

Pinch punch first of the month!
OH! and it's december, ergo, crack open your advent calendars! Yay! 
Well, sorry for the gap between posts, packing boxes has been manic! I shifted boxes literally full of my own weight in books and past Elle and Vogue magazines *blush* - my guilty pleasure is re-re-re-reading Vogue and Elle s...anywayyyyyyy,
I'm ill. Like full on sniffles, 10 tissues a minute, swollen glands and landing strip of red soreness beneath my nose :( Sad times. Due to this, and the fact i woke up this morning with a temperature of a rather high nature, i'm off school, packing boxes, resting and now, blogging! 
As my pride screams to me to not post any pictures of me being in this sorry little state, i thought i'd discuss some other things which, to me are essentialful! 
Today, i thought i'd ramble on about Eyebrows. 
I can't remember who said it, but someone important definitely said at some point, that eyebrows are the frame of a woman's face. And although not the conventional picture frame styley, eyebrows are actually really important! 
You can chose to have them plucked or waxed (or if you are of a brave / courageous nature, you could go for threading) , or you could pluck them yourself!
As my mum was a trained beautician, she's instructed me on the importance of good eyebrows:P but i tend to have them waxed, then pluck away zee strays as and when they appear. However, at the moment, i decided i was bored of my round arch-y eyebrows, and wanted to go more in the direction of this, squarer...think the gals in Pretty Little Liars, or Emma Watson-esque. 

So this is what i'm going for ^^...but i'm currently in the untamed, Wolverine inspired stage, which i'm fine, as it contributes to wild, poorly look i'm currently sporting. 
My relationship with my eyebrows has always been a little love-hate, so yknow. ANYWAY, choosing an eyebrow shape is basically all down to scientific thingymabobs. 
You need to figure out your face shape and go from there- to read more on this, click here. I have deducted that my face is square (not literally, just check out the link to understand!:P) , meaning i basically have a square jawline...which i quite like! :') 
So going from there, you just have to wait for your eyebrows to grow til their suitable for shaping!:) 
One more thing- neverneverneverNEVER let anyone, or yourself, pluck or wax or thread from the top down! You have to shape from the bottom of the brow up. 
So that concludes todays eyebrow raising (haha) post. 
24 sleeps until christmas BTW eeeeeek!


Have a lovely day, gorgeous people!
