3 Days in London

Image
Hello everyone, For my birthday this year I was taken to London to see a Wicked the musical. I have wanted to see Wicked for a while now and I was so excited to see it. It was everything I had hoped it would be and more. I had never been to London and I was also really excited to see the hustle and bustle of united kingdoms capital. I loved every minute of being in London and so I thought I would do another photography travel post for you guys.                                                       View from the top of the Tate gallery.                                                  View from the top of the Tate gallery                             ...

Testing Barry M!

Image
Hello everyone, It was recently my birthday and I received some Barry M products. I have tried a few things from Barry M before, but it was a long time ago. So I thought I would do a review on the products I received to refresh my own memory and to see if Barry M is any good. On first impressions I really liked the packaging, it’s both unique and pretty yet functional. Barry M Unicorn primer drops - The unicorn primer drops really intrigued me I hadn’t tried anything like that before and I was pleasantly surprised. When I applied the drops they smelt like exotic fruits which I really like and they made my skin feel refreshed and a little tacky to help the makeup go on and stay put much nicer. Barry M Holographic lip topper - I have used the Barry m holographic lip topper a few times now and I really like it. Some holographic products are too holographic to even wear and look nice. However, this lip topper is just the right balance of holographic which I really like. It me...

Jaclyn Hill X Morphe - Ring The Alarm eyeshadow palette review

Image
Hello everyone, I have been watching Jaclyn Hill on YouTube for a while now and I love the looks and the reviews she does. So, when I found out that she was releasing her own palettes with Morphe for the second time, I knew I had to have one. I was actually going to purchases one myself. However, it was recently my birthday and I was kindly gifted one from my friends and I absolutely love it.  I was so excited to try this palette out for you guys and it didn't disappoint. The pigmentation is really good and the shadows blend beautifully on the eye. This palette retails for only £15 in the UK and it definitely looks much more luxurious than the price tag. The general colour theme of the palette is warm tones. There are several red and brown themed shadows which complement each other perfectly.                              Swatches of from the top row of the palette in natural day light. ...

Testing Wet n Wild makeup!

Image
Hello everyone, When I found out that Wet n wild were coming to the uk I was really excited. I was constantly hearing American YouTubers talk about how amazing their products are and I was intrigued to try them out myself! They are currently available in the uk on beauty bay and their prices are really reasonable. I picked up a couple of things to try out, and I wanted to let you all know my thoughts and opinions. Wet n wild colour icon eyeshadow palette in rose in the air -  The Wet n wild eyeshadow palettes looked gorgeous online and I was intrigued to try one out. I chose rose in the air due to the warm tones. This palette also reminded me of the ABH modern renaissance eyeshadow palette, but a much cheaper alternative. The pigmentation and blend ability of this palette is really good. There was minimal fall out and the longevity of the shadows is amazing.  Here are some swatches of the Wet n wild rose in the air eyeshadow palette. Wet n wild...

What to avoid when you have scoliosis

Image
Hello everyone, When you have Scoliosis it can be hard to know what you can and can't do. I spent a lot of my time when I was first diagnosed not knowing what was good for my back and what could cause me more pain. However, I now know from experience that there are certain things that cause me aches and pains. 1) Carrying heavy objects This causes anyone to have back ache as it puts strain on the muscles. However, if you have scoliosis it can make the already existing pain much worse. For example, the muscles in a scoliosis patients back are already out of line, so heavy lifting adds more strain to the back. 2) One sided sports/ impact sports Some sports can cause more problems for scoliosis patients than others. Sports that involve collisions such as rugby or football, can have a high impact on the patients back. Golf, tennis and badminton are all one sided sports which can put strain on one side of the body and back. Both contact sports and one sided sports can caus...
