First Impression Review | Natural Collection Lip Sticks and Glosses

Image
Today's review is a continuation of the Natural Collection Eye Shadow Review I did last week. This time I'm reviewing the lipsticks and glosses from the same collection. I purchased some lipsticks and glosses at £1.99 each. In Boots, there is a buy 1 get one half price offer on these products so it's worth going to see what other products they had. 

Tutorial | Teal and Polka Dot Nails

Image
Hey guys Today I decided to do a nail tutorial since I was wearing my false nails. I found this look on Google but I added the teal colour to make it my own.  For the first step, prep your nails by buffing filing, trimming cuticles and applying a base coat.                                                 Apply one coat of a teal nail polish. I used ELF Nail Polish in Teal. Wait for it to dry and apply a second coat.                                                  This next step you can either stick tape over the bottom diagonal half of your nail for a crisp, straight edge or you can use a free hand if its steady. Paint the top diagonal half of your nails black. I used MUA Nail Polish in Shade 2.       ...

Help Me Get to 100 Followers on Twitter #FollowBack

Hey guys Really quickly I just want your help in getting to 100 followers on Twitter.  I have thought about uploaded YouTube videos onto my account but I wanted to reach a certain number of followers first. So if you want to see my blog posts turn into YouTube videos then click 'Follow' on @SparkleEyes101. I have decided that for every 100 followers I get, I will do something a bit different so 100 followers = videos on my YouTube Channel and I have to think about what to get for 200 and so on.

Back to School | Pencil Case Organisation

Like I have said before, 3 pocket pencil cases are best for going back to school with, especially for secondary school to higher education students. I found this pencil case in WHSmiths for £4.99 and it has the 3 pockets. 

First Impression Review | Natural Collection Eye Shadows

Image
Today was enrolment day for Sixth Form and after waiting an hour and a half to be seen, we went into town afterwards. While in Boots, I remembered I had about £6 on my Advantage Card and was determined to spend them there. We were browsing through the shop and I found the Natural Collection. My first thoughts were 'this is going to be expensive' since natural beauty products usually are, but I was surprised about how cheap this brand was!

Haul | Back to School September 2013

Summer is nearly over and in just over a weeks time people will be going back to school. Today I went out and bought my back to school stationary because I am going into my first year of Sixth Form in September. I was film this video with a voice over but I am losing my voice and have got a really bad sore throat and getting a cold and that was the last thing I want my readers to hear so instead it is the good 'ole traditional photo way. 

Summer | How To Stay Safe in the Sun and Treat Sunburn

Image
Hey guys I know that holiday season is pretty much over but some people are still on holiday and going to exotic destinations. I probably should have done this earlier but I didn't think of it, so it will do for people who are maybe just about to jet off somewhere or for next year. This post is about how to stay safe in the sun and how to avoid sunburn/sunstroke and how to treat it if you do get it. The sun is brutal sometimes. I'm in Sri Lanka and its the low season but it is still 30 degrees so god knows what its like in high season!! My first day here consited of me getting burnt and looking like a lobster even though I had applied suncream numerous times during the day. That is the first thing you need to do. It is recommended that you put on the suncream with a high enough factor before you get dressed, so that way you don't miss any areas. It is a good idea to get a suncream that is sweat and water resistant so it will stay longer. I use Garnier Ambr...
