Hey my lovelies,
So this is my first post of 2016, and I wanted to tell you my 5 new years resolutions. So lets go!
1. Be organised.
Now I don't know about you but I am probably the least organised person that I know; and this year I am determined to be a little bit more organised and hopefully I will stay motivated to do so (fingers crossed..) !
2. Eat healthy
Recently I have been eating really badly, (I love peanut butter) and this needs to stop or I will become obese (no offence intended!) and I am surprised that I haven't got diabetes to be honest! Anyway, my 2nd resolution is to eat healthier in 2016 - I will not starve myself as this is a very unhealthy diet!
3. Stay fit.
In the last couple of years, I have been doing a lot of sports clubs like Netball, Football etc. And just this school year, I haven't done any sports (except horse-riding which I wouldn't give up for the world!) and I really want to stay fit (especially as summer is coming soon!) in 2016.
I'm also starting a jogging club with my friend Alice/GirlAbroad.
4. Keep up to date with homework.
I never do my homework fullstop. I just don't see the point in spending 6-7 hours learning and then coming home to do more blooming work! Anyhow, that's not the way that teachers see it when I tell them that sooo I think it's time for me to start doing my homework in 2016...
5. To start baking more.
Now this one will be the easiest out of all of them! I love baking but recently I just haven't had time. so I will make myself time to do what I love in 2016!
So I hope you enjoyed this post! That's all for now.

Hey my lovelies,
So I know I've already posted today but this is just a quick review of the Matte top coat by Lovely.
 |
MATTE TOP COAT - Lovely
|
I really love the brand Lovely, as it has good quality cosmetic products and is affordable! This top coat was 7.19 PLN (£1.11) which is very cheap!
I have only used this product a couple of times, but oh my god, it's amazing. I love matte nails and this works really well and is so much better than buying a matte colour as you can use the top coat on anything!
The rating by wizaz (a polish site) of this product is 4.1 stars which is pretty good!
I would definitely recommend this product - it works well with a range of brands of nail polish as I have tried it out with:
Miss sporty
Rimmel London
Maybelline
And Lovely itself
I rate it 4.3 stars!
I hope you enjoyed this small post, That's all for now!

Hey my lovelies,
So today I went to the mall with Alice and we spent a good 2 hours shopping. We only bought things from Rossman's which is a great shop where you can buy basically everything!
As this is only a mini haul, I only bought 6 items, so lets get started!
1. The natural beauty blusher by Lovely. This is a great blush, especially if you're going for a natural look (which I am most of the time).
2.Magic Concealer pen by Lovely in the shade 02. Great concealer pen, really easy to apply. Again good for a natural look as it doesn't have a lot of coverage.
3. Beauty basic powder brush. This brush is great for blush (that was a mouthful!), as it doesn't cake the product on but it gives an even coverage.
4. Miss Sporty clubbing colour 150 - I am a big fan of miss sporty nail polishes and I also love this cute teil colour. It makes me feel like a mermaid!!
5. Miss Sporty clubbing colour 040 - This nude pink is a great natural look and even after one coat it is really smooth and opaque.
6. Lastly we have the Matte top coat by Lovely - At first I wasn't so sure but it really mattifies any nail polish and I love matte nail polish.
So that's all of the products - That's all for now!

Hey my lovelies!
So on Friday I had a sleepover with Alice (aka Girl Abroad).
For this post I thought I would do 'my sleepover routine'. Now I know that sounds weird, but me and Alice generally do the same things every sleepover.So lets get started!
Usually we have sleepovers after a long day at school, so the first thing we do is get changed into comfy clothes or even pyjamas!
Snack time!
We are very hungry after school so we sit down and have a quick nibble just to keep us going until dinner.
Makeup/manicure time!
Now, me and Alice both share an interest in makeup and nail art so we generally do our makeup or nails just for some girly fun.
Foot Bath.
A foot bath is a really relaxing way to get super cosy in the winter as it makes your feet all snug and warm - we used the Stender's foot scrub and the lush soap. Then we pop on some fuzzy socks and head into the kitchen.
Dinner!!!
Every sleepover deserves some delicious junk food!
Tea time!
After dinner, some herbal tea is really soothing and warm in these cold winter months. Just make sure you don't drink caffeinated tea and popping candy because that won't help you get to sleep! (Don't make the same mistake that we did!!)
Gossip...
The last thing we do is chat, gossip and talk about random stuff (like pairing up couples in our class!).
zzzzzz...
If we can, we try and go to sleep, but usually we end up talking for the next 3 hours...
I hope that you enjoyed this post,
That's all for now!

Hey my lovelies!
So I'm really sorry that I didn't upload a post yesterday, but I will do 2 posts today :)
I thought that as I love nail art, I would show you how I made a cute panda. xx
What You Will Need:
- Black nail polish
- White nail polish
- Nail brush - or a toothpick
I'm using the bebeauty white and black polish!
Let's get started!!
1. Clean all previous nail polish off to start with a clean canvas.
2. Do a layer of base coat - nail polish can stain your nails!
3. Paint a thin layer of white on every nail - it depends on what brand you're using!
- If needed add another coat until you have an opaque colour!
5. Dot 2 small black 'blobs' in the top right and left corners of your nail.
6. Dot 2 other smaller black blobs for eyes.
7. Finish it off with a top coat, to seal in your design!
I hope you enjoyed this blog post - I love nail art and would be more than happy to do more posts like this in the future! Sorry about the quality of the photos - this was my first time using my own photos on my blog xx
That's all for now,

Hey my lovelies!
So today I was thinking, and I realized that people (in my school especially) can judge you because you wear makeup. Now I don't cake my face in foundation, concealer etc. Occasionally I throw on some mascara, some lip gloss and spray some perfume. I could only name 3 other people who wear makeup in my year at school and it is really light (mascara, lip gloss etc.)
On the weekends I like to wear makeup - not because I think that I am ugly, or that I need it. Purely because I like makeup and I enjoy experimenting with different looks! So here are some of my favorite products & skincare items. Enjoy! xx
This makeup-remover is a Polish brand but really good :)
This is the Garnier skin naturals cleanser - totally recommend this, it really moisturizes my face (especially during the winter).
This is the Simple, Kind to skin moisturizing lotion. An absolute must have!
This is the Nivea, Hydro Care SPF 15 - Love this xx
Next we are going to move onto makeup products - These are my main essentials for every day!
Miss Sporty Quattro Eye Shadow Palette - Great for a smokey eye (Featured on Girl Abroad's blog)
Sephora, Golden beige shimmery lip gloss - Really Christmassy and tastes great xx
Chit Chat pencil eyeliner - super easy to apply
Lastly, the Miss Sporty studio lash - The Miaoww mascara. For big lashes!
I love all of these products to bits and I really recommend them xx
That's all for today!
