Empties #1

I've been meaning to write this blog post for ages but I keep getting distracted by more exciting posts! This has resulted in my "empties" box in my bathroom becoming worryingly full so I'm so glad I'm finally getting around to this so that I can throw all the packaging away! Woo! Apologies for the photo quality, as I've been so busy lately and the sun was starting to set when I took them - boo!

American Christmas Box!

Over the past ten or so months, I have had the pleasure of getting to know a beautiful and lovely young lady called Mia. We have been talking ever since and get on like a house on fire. She really, truly, has become one of my closest friends and I can tell her everything. The only issue is that Mia lives in America, which is preeeeetty far (over 3,500 miles between our two cities to be exact!) so we have both decided to share our differences and take part in package swaps!

Get Ready With Me: Valentines Day

So this is the first time I've ever done something like this, and it was actually pretty fun! A "Get Ready With Me" was never something I thought I would have the guts to do because it means that people see you without any make up on. It's not a pretty sight, and I apologise for that, but I hope you enjoy this anyway!

Top 5 High End Products

As I've said before, and I'll say it again, I'm a massive sucker for high end make up. I've been branching out and trying more drugstore make up recently than I ever had before and have been pleasantly surprised, however there are a few high end products that I think the drugstore just will never be able to beat. (Yes, that is a challenge)

Top 5 Drugstore Makeup Products

I'm thinking of starting a "Top 5" series where I focus on different areas (mainly cosmetic but, please, throw me other suggestions!). I thought I'd start with something every girl can relate to - drugstore makeup. Now, in the UK we don't call these shops drugstores but the phrase is slowly working its way over from the US and now that I actually can't remember what I used to call them before. Pharmacies, maybe? There are so many amazing products that are overlooked in the drugstore and, to be honest with you, a lot are actually better quality than high end brands. So if you, like I used to be, are quite "same-y" with your make up choices, branch out a little! You may be surprised with all the amazing things you can find - I certainly was.
