QUICK DRY BRUSH CLEANING FT. BEAUTY ESSENTIALS

Put your hands up if you've ever been a victim of the horrid brush cleaning.. I know I have and I HATE doing it, I hope you can all agree with me! Your hands start to look like prunes, your wrist hurts from all that deep cleansing and your just drained by the end of it, but of course you do feel pretty good you've got that time consuming chore out of the way and finally have pretty, clean brushes ready for use again BUT thats besides the point. So when the lovely guys over at Dee&Co contacted me asking if I wanted to review their SHADOW SWITCH dry brush cleaner from Beauty Essentials, I had to say yes! Anything that will help a girl out and make life SO much easier!

BIRCHBOX | OCTOBER 2016

Today is a sad day. Unfortunately, I have taken the plunge and this will be my last Birchbox post as I have officially cancelled my subscription... I may re-subscribe in the future, you never know! I love having a monthly beauty subscription, because it's something to look forward to and great to discover new brands and new products and after some thought, I decided to be a traitor and switch over to Glossybox, sorry Birchbox!!! I've never tried it before until this month, but heard many good things. So it's a goodbye to Birchbox for now...

MAKEUP STORAGE FT. HERCLUTTERBOX

When you're completely and utterly obsessed with makeup, you end up with makeup all over the place, mess EVERYWHERE, so investing in some good ol' storage is definitely worth it! Plus it's nice to have your makeup collection all organised and looking pretty on display. For me, my makeup storage needs to be something convenient, that doesn't take up the whole room. I would LOVE to have a beauty station/room but mine isn't big enough so this will do!

HerClutterBox very kindly sent me the 'Spinning Lipstick & Powder Tower' acrylic storage which is one of their new products and retails for £80.11/ €88.99/ $97.63. They also have so many different models of storage from nail varnish racks to acrylic drawers, which all look incredible. Currently, they have these special bundles of storage pieces for great prices and a massive pre-Christmas sale on right NOW!

AUTUMN WEAR WISHLIST | STYLE

NANSHY BRUSHES | REVIEW

What makeup lover doesn't love new brushes to add to their collection? I can finally put my hands up and say I have enough makeup brushes to supply Europe, not that it's a bad thing... My makeup addiction turned into a brush addiction quite some time ago, and i'm over flowing, like literally. It's just like the excitement of buying new makeup, but for brushes, although cleaning them i'm not fond of, but who is?! 

HAUL | SEPTEMBER 2016

So guys, it's mid October... like what, already?! It's crazy how quick the year has gone, meaning Christmas is only round the corner and my 21st birthday woo! Also, I feel like I can finally wear chunky knits and cute booties, as it's gotten so bloody cold, not complaining though... it's my favourite season! 

As you may know, I like to do monthly hauls as these are one of my most popular posts and do so well! I just want to apologise that I haven't been posting as much recently and that this is going up late this month. It's been a crazy couple weeks as i've just gone back to uni and it's already been manic so I haven't had much time to sit down and blog, but I will definitely make time now the first couple of weeks are done and dusted, sorry guys!

NEW IN BEAUTY | TECHNIC COSMETICS

Technic is one of those brands I used to use back in the day, especially when I started getting into makeup years and years ago. They're extremely affordable, great quality for what you pay for and have a massive variety of products to choose from! do still use one Technic product to this day which is the Technic High Lights, an AMAZING dupe for the Benefit's High Beam liquid highlighter, they're literally the same, you all need it in your collection!

EYESHADOW PALETTE PICKS | AUTUMN MAKEUP

So, it's officially Autumn, well it started last month... BUT YA KNOW. I mean it's officially Autumn in the aspect where it's now acceptable to start wearing cute jumpers, chunky scarfs and getting those booties out. Autumn/winter has to be my favourite season for makeup. The warm browns and orange tones are just 'me' and I like to wear these sort of looks all year round to be honest! 

IT'S BOOTIES SEASON

Now that it's Autumn, that means it's definitely bootie season (MY FAVE, YAY!). Heres some of my picks on boots that i'm loving, and if I had all the money in the world, I would own ALL of them, trust me, I would! I hope I haven't tempted you too much to destroy your bank balance, sorry in advance...
