Jazooli concealer palette

Hi!

I ordered the 15 shade concealer palette by Jazooli off of Amazon last week as I was looking for a good concealer and all of these can also be used as highlighters or for contouring too!

Here it is in the box it came in.

Unboxed it is a little black palette. It's plastic and quite lightweight.

Inside one side has a plain black lid and the other side has all the shades on. The top left one is a white glitter shade but it hasn't shown up. Beneath that is a pale green colour good for hiding spots or blemishes. Underneath the green one is a white one too. On the top of the second column is a light yellow which is good for anti redness. 

Hopefully this'll give you a clearer picture now I took flash off. Considering this only cost £4.28 including postage and packing I think it is great value for money. The concealers are quite rigid but also creamy so it can be quite hard to use it. At first I tried using a soft brush but it didn't really work so resorted to using my finger to pat it into the skin. 

So far I am impressed! Thanks for reading I hope you liked this post! Love,A x

Gold Finger

Hello!

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely New Year's Eve. I went out with Titch and a few other friends and we saw in 2014 and all had a really nice night! I used a set of Star by Julien Macdonald stick on nails for this too. 





These usually cost £8 but I got these last year if not the year before in the sale for about £6. I really like these However I do find it frustrating how they don't stay put for very long. They come with some adhesive on them but it doesn't stay so I bought a special quick drying nail glue which makes them last about 3/4 days. 


Overall I am impressed with these and they really make a statement!

Happy New Year!

Hello everyone! So three posts in one day, my aren't you all blessed ha! 

Today is New Years Eve. Which I am a little bit sad about actually. 2013 has been a really good year for me. 

-I passed my A Levels and I didn't think I would. 
-I passed my driving theory test. 
-I passed my driving test with only one minor and on the first time too!
-I got a job and am still happily working there now.
-I got a car. 
-I made several big realisations. 
-I am really happy I made the decision not to go to uni. 
-I have lost many 'friends' (at the time I was sad) but now I am so happy about it. I know it sounds weird but we didn't much at all in common and even though them ignoring me hurt at first I have two best friends and a loving family that are so so much better than a load of fake friends who don't care about me at all. (whoops sorry about the rant)
-I still don't know what I want to do in life, but I do know what I don't want to do. 
-I got a puppy! 
-And my blog has really hit off and overall I have more than 1000 followers so thank you all so so much!! You have no idea how much this all means to me. 

Me and my friend Eloise on our last day of Sixth form when we could come in, in fancy dress.

I went to Brighton and I have wanted to go here for years!!
Titch (Glitter Gnome) and I out and about.

I got a little puppy called Charlie and he's so sweet.

I saw McFly live with my sister and they were really good! We both had a lot of fun! 

Here's a picture of Vicki and I on one of our many nights out!

I hope that 2014 holds as much excitement as 2013 did or equally if its even better! Thanks for reading, I hope you liked this post. Happy New Year everyone! Love, A x


What I got for Christmas!

Hi! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas time getting spoiled by your loved ones and eating your weight in Turkey, pigs in blankets and Quality Street!...Because I certainly did. I got utterly spoilt by my family this Christmas and I want to share some of the things they got me with you here. I am in no way bragging in this post I am extremely thankful for everything I have received and feel very blessed to have such a loving family and two best friends. 

This has some great tips and advice on nail care and some really cool nail art designs too!

My old hair dryer broke the week before christmas and I would wash my hair in the evening and dry it by the fire afterwards. But I am very impressed with this hair dryer so far. Expect a review on it quite soon! 

I really like this scent, it is long lasting and is a lot better than I expected as I'm usually quite sceptical of celebrity fragrances. 

I've been relying on my mum's ghd's for quite a while now and asked for these for christmas as I have heard quite a lot of good reviews and was on a special offer in Boots.

I really liked the idea of this perfume set as I like quite a few of the perfumes in this and wouldn't mind trying the others too.

Inside there are little bottles that contain about 6-7 spritzes inside. This set also comes with a voucher equivalent to a 30ml bottle of one of the fragrances. 

I got an EOS lip balm from my sister.

And plenty of Lush products too! What's Christmas without a bit of Snow Fairy, eh?

Glitter Gnome spoiled me!

Today is the last day of 2013 and this makes me a little sad as this year has been one of my best! Hopefully 2014 will be just as good if not better. I have been slacking recently when it came to blogging over Christmas I was somewhat distracted with family meeting up, work, eating Christmas food and unhealthy amounts of cake and chocolates.

However  as it is still December and also 2013 I am going to finish off and post all the blog posts I meant to post after Christmas all today! So enjoy a little influx! 

Glitter Gnome is my real life bff and she got me some really lovely presents this Christmas. I just want to say I am in no way bragging whilst writing this I am merely just showing I have a lovely best friend. 




Thank you Titch!! I hope you all got spoiled rotten this Christmas time. Thanks for reading, I hope you liked reading this post. Love, A x

Meet Charlie..

Hi everyone!! I hope you've all had a wonderful Christmas time with your loved ones gorging on lots of yummy foods and generally being spoiled rotten!

I apologize for the lack of posts recently what with Christmas and all the mayhem leading up to it and after everything with me has been a little bit hectic to say the very least! I must say this Christmas I have been thoroughly spoiled rotten by my two best friends, the ladies I work with and all of my family and I've received some amazing presents that I will cherish. Possibly my favourite thing to happen to my family and I over the Christmas period would be the arrival of the puppy! At the beginning of December my Mum saw an ad in the local paper about some schnoodle (schnauzer cross toy poodle) puppies for sale. I went to work that day and we were considering going to see them after I finshed at 4 but when I got picked up my Mum, Stepdad and sister had already gone round and bought the little boy one. He was available to pick up on Boxing day and we have all fallen in love with him already!

His name is Charlie and he is so cute.
