Halloween Q&A

12:58:00 Unknown 0 Comments

1. Why do you love Halloween?
I'm not really sure to be honest, it's just a really fun holiday! Lots of candy & scary creepy things, sounds good to me! I love watching paranormal stuff at this time of year too.

2. What costume sums your personality up perfectly?
Erm.. Possibly Wednesday Adams? I definitely have resting bitch face like her! haha!

3. Have you ever been to a scare attraction?
Yes! I've been to Scarefest at Alton Towers! Their scare mazes are amazing, although I haven't been in a few years now! They do have a lot of new ones this year though.

4. Previous Halloween costumes?
I've only properly dressed up once & it was a few years ago now. I dressed as Mrs Freddy Krueger & yes I did do the make up for it too!

5.Favourite horror film?
God that's a hard question! I'm really not sure on that one, partly because a lot of horror films are crap! haha! I think the best horror films are psychological horrors, they're so much more intense!

6. Do you believe in ghosts?
I'm honestly not sure. I personally have never had a ghost or paranormal experience so I find it really hard to believe really. As a photographer as well I'm well aware of what can be done in photoshop. I don't know really!

7. What are you craving in your pumpkin this year?
I haven't decided yet, but we will be vlogging our pumpkin craving for vlogaween!

Spooky Decor

10:25:00 Unknown 1 Comments

It's finally Halloween week!
So if you hadn't already (I had) decorated the house, now is the time.
Check the images & video for this blog post to see how I've decorated mine house this year. We have only decorated inside because I couldn't really find any nice outdoor props/ decor.
Maybe next year!
I mostly put my money into candles & cute pumpkins!
Most of the items I got are from Sainsbury's, a few things from Asda & then the candles from their respective brand shops. I would say shop around, as you might not find everything you're looking for in just one shop!
I also tried to get items that I knew I could keep for next year, so durable & quality products!
Enjoy the video too!

October Favourites '16

16:36:00 Unknown 0 Comments

Now I know I'm a little early on this one, however I wanted to fit it in as one of our Vlogtober episodes, before we moved onto Vlogaween!
So today we are talking about my October Favourites!


Candy Kittens in Wild Strawberry.
I know I have been going on about these quite a bit recently, but that's because they are simply awesome! I did favourite them in my last monthly favourites, however this strawberry flavour is my absolute FAVOURITE!

Soap & Glory Sugarcrush Body Wash & Hand Food hand cream.
This is all about the scent for me, I love the Sugarcrush scent. However I have to say these products do really work!

MAC Lipstick in Hot Gossip.
This appeared in my 'what's new in my make up bag' post recently because I've really fallen back in love with MAC lipsticks & this shade is my favourite of all the ones I own.

Woodwick & Yankee melts.
Melts are the new candle for me. I have an electric burner so they are a safer & cheaper way of scenting your home! At £1.50 for a pack of six, you really can't go wrong.

Monster Ultra energy drinks.
Sometimes everyone needs an energy drink, including myself. I actually really like these as a pre workout, as they're not quite as intense! The ultra ones are also only 11 calories!

Namaste

10:24:00 Unknown 0 Comments

We all need some time to relax!
As usual Lush have you covered on this one, with their Yoga Bath Bomb.

This one is actually a repurchase for me because I enjoyed it so much the first time I used it.


I will warn you now this bath bomb does have some glitter in it, so if you're not of a fan of that it might not be for you. However it's scent is pure bliss & relaxation. I'm not really sure what it is about this bath bomb but it really is relaxing, creating calm & peace whilst you bathe.

So if you're in serious need of some chilled you time, this is a bath bomb I would definitely recommend!

New in my Make Up Bag #6

10:13:00 Unknown 0 Comments

As fall comes around I think it's time to have a little shake up of the old make up bag!
So there's a few new items & a few return items in there this month.

By return items I mean products I've had a while that I've just rediscovered. I mean who doesn't love a good re-discovery!


I actually haven't been buying much make up as of late, especially as it's getting to that expensive time of year (Christmas is coming). So something I try to do quite regularly is empty my make up bag & select some different items of make up I haven't used for a while.
That way you actually get the use out of most of your make up!

So onto the items...


Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette is a good old favourite of mine. When I first got it I was OBSESSED with it for ages, as it was my first Naked palette! I think at this time of year it's nice to break out the warmer rose gold/ copper eyeshadow shades. Which is the whole concept of this palette!

Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy Diamond Top Coat, now that's a mouthful. However it is worth it, as this product is definitely one you want on your radar! I have recently been having gel polish put on my nails, however when I'm doing my own nails this is my go to top coat. It gives me twice as much wear time with any nail polish. This nail polish formula is great too!

Benefit They're Real Eyeliner is ones I've just getting into. I'm still not totally into eyeliner, however I find this one really easy to use for someone lazy & out of practice like myself. It also wears for a very long time. My only issue is it's a little hard to remove.

MAC Lipstick in Hot Gossip, this was the first ever MAC lipstick that I purchased & it hasn't been doing much for a while. I must say though, I still love it! It's a really nice pinky nude shade, which works perfectly with my pale skin tone. I just really hope them don't ever remove this shade!

So what's new in your make up bags this fall??
Let me know in the comments!

Candy kittens

Time for snack?
If you've been here for a while you'll know that I'm gluten intolerant, which means my body struggles to break down gluten & foods with it in.

I check the bad of every food packet I pick up, I have to. However some things like sweets don't always come in packet that breakdown the ingredients. So I have a way of staying on the safe side of things..

Eat specialised gluten free sweets!



Candy Kittens are a company that make gluten free & (some flavours) vegan gourmet sweets. They have actually just undergone a rebrand so their flavours are limited, however my favourite are the Wild Strawberry & Eton Mess.

They sweets are great if you fancy a littler gluten free treat! They aren't that healthy so I wouldn't recommend eating a whole bag in one go, but they are nice to have now & again.

I also really like their new packaging!
These used to be quite hard to get hold of, but they are now available in your normal supermarkets as well shops like Selfridges.

Bubbleroon Delight!

13:00:00 Unknown 0 Comments

This is another new Lush discovery to me! I have tried some of their bubbleroons before.
In fact I decided to try this one because I love their Rose Jam one so much!

This is there Yuzu & Cocoa bubbleroon!
Ok, it may not look that nice it smells incredible though!


I honestly think this smell like chocolate orange! So i'm serious when I say, try not to eat it (haha).
Lush describe it as a sweet treat with cocoa & shea butter. The scent is described as citrusy with chocolate undertones.

See the demo here:

Benefit Blushes

09:42:00 Unknown 0 Comments

Benefit are a make up brand I love! I dare say they're one of my favourites.
I definitely have a lot of their stuff in my make up drawers!

Today I wanted to talk about their blushes. Benefit's blushes are one of their staple products, as well as their Hoola bronzer.


Firstly, we don't even need to discuss they packaging. It's simply beautiful, fun & unique! I love these boxed blushes, although chunky as packaging goes, they are very fun and very user friendly. This packaging is extended through to their palettes as well, which you can somewhat see below.

I have tried pretty much all of their blushes & their isn't one that I don't like. Granted some I like more than others but none of them like terrible or have no pay off. The lightest in pigmentation is dandelion, but that is due to it's light colour. I actually like it for in the winter when I'm super pale.


My current favourite (I say current because it changes quite often with these) is the Rockateur blush, it's a beautiful rose gold sort of colour. Again it isn't over-pigmentated, but for someone pale like myself it's perfect.

Another thing I love about these blushes is their scent. Some people might hate or not see the point in it, but all of these blushes are fragranced! I love the way they smell, in fact overtime I use one I just have to sniff it too (haha). I think they all smell slightly different, but they all are quite sweet & lovely.

If you can get your hands on a palette like the one above I would definitely recommend doing so!

WoodWick Wax Melts

13:54:00 Unknown 0 Comments

This year has been a real year of discovery for me when it comes to home fragrance!
I have found some awesome candle brands & got onto the wax melt hype..

In fact, a little too much I think!
I recently ordered a load of different wax melts off Amazon. The brand I purchased are WoodWick melts, which if you know me you'll know I'm obsessed with their candles.
I have a review of their candles here.

Firstly, I'm going to say if you can get to a shop to purchase these, I would definitely advise that over ordering online like myself. Although I like most of these scents, there is one here that I really am not a fan of (if you're wondering it's the Vanilla Bourbon).

I actually have an electric wax melter, which are perfect for scenting your home! Mine is by a brand called Scentsy, but there are quite a lot of different companies that make them now. They're great for so many reasons. One they're cheaper & the melts last longer than some candles (yes we burn them that much). Two they have no naked flame or anything that's too dangerous if you accidentally leave it on.


These wax melts come in different sizes & packaging. They can come in single, large multi-packs or these (photographed above) skinny ones. The singles & large multi-packs are my favourites as you only need one of them. To be honest, the singles I usually break in half. In comparison the skinny ones require two blocks per use to get the best scent result out of them.

Overall I really like these melts. They're great value for money & for the most part smell amazing.
The only negative for me is removing them, they do tend to stick!

Oral B

10:52:00 Unknown 0 Comments

Now I know, you're probably thinking this is a really random product to review. However, let's face it we want whiter teeth without having to pay a fortune & suffer the pain of the dentist's chair!

This is the exact reason I decided to try this toothpaste by Oral B. It is their Oral B 3D White Brilliance.

Now my initial thoughts were, wow this toothpaste looks weird as it has purple running through it. We've all seen red or blue, but not purple! It also tastes really weird!
It's not very minty at all, so if you're brushing to relieve bad breath this toothpaste is a little lack lustre.

So does it really work?
The straight answer.. NO

In fact I think my teeth look more discoloured & yellow since using this toothpaste!
So given the points above I really can't recommend this toothpaste to anyone, unless you really hate minty toothpaste I guess.

I wouldn't mind either, but as toothpaste goes this one isn't on the cheap end!
I think I'll stick with Colgate from now on.
