The Answer to Every Problem Involved Penguins
Monday, 5 November 2012
So...this is my 100th post, I can't believe I've managed to write that much drivel! But anyhoo, I just wanted to do a quick 'What I'm Wearing' makeup post, and sort of half outfit post - because this is the first day since I've hurt my foot that I wasn't wearing lounging clothes, my hair scraped back with no makeup. Only because I was leaving the house, I could never be bothered with that if I wasn't going anywhere!
Soft Autumn Berries
Tuesday, 23 October 2012
I was just playing around with some of my makeup (as per usual), and I came up with this! I think it's perfect for Autumn. It's warm, and uses berry tones without being over the top. This is definitely a toned down look what with all of this seasons trends. It's great if you're a bit scared of dark berry lips! I can see me doing this again throughout this season. Cranberry is one of my all time favourite MAC eyeshadows, it's just such a gorgeous colour! And it can be used with a darker colour like Sketch or Beauty Marked for a more dramatic eye look - maybe for night time. And if you've read my post on MAC Woodwinked, you'll know that it's one of my other all time favourites, so I thought I'd combine them!
OOTN & MOTN - Blogger Pub Quiz
Friday, 19 October 2012
Last night I went to the Blogger Pub Quiz in Glasgow, hosted by the lovely Paula. It was great, and so nice to meet other Scottish Bloggers. The team I was in won the quiz, so yay! I got vouchers for the Red Onion restaurant which looks amazing (I've been on their website and had a peek!), so I'm excited to go there and have a nice meal - I just need to find a date...any takers? The only condition is that I'll be there...
Any way on to what I wore!

How Much is My Face Worth? #Tag
Thursday, 11 October 2012
I'll be honest and say I've been purposely putting this off. I already know that my end figure is going to be disgustingly high (and at this point I haven't calculated it). Also, everyday, I change up my makeup. I don't consistently use a specific foundation or concealer, or have an "everyday face". I just do what I feel like while I'm doing it - not really thinking about the products I'm using too much - other than choosing a base that will work for my skin that day. So I have tried to be honest, and just do my makeup like I would any other day - without taking into consideration the products I'm using - otherwise I would end up purposely choosing my cheaper/highstreet products, just to get a smaller number. So anyway - here we go...
My Highstreet/Drugstore Makeup Wishlist
Wednesday, 26 September 2012
Hey Lovelies!
I've been thinking a lot recently about how I haven't really used much of highstreet makeup products for a couple of years. It's not because I'm snobby or that I will only put something that costs more than £20 on my face (...that doesn't sound quite right, but moving on). If you knew me personally you'd know I'm much closer to slob than snob!
It's basically because I think that for the most part you get what you pay for, and I save up for things that I really want. Honestly makeup is just about all that I spend my money on. If you've seen any of my 'outfit of the day' posts, more often than not I'm wearing H&M or Primark, and I don't shop for clothes, accessories or shoes very often. I am probably the only living female that could care less about shoes. My one pair of black heels that I wear out all of the time were £20 from New Look and I've had them for almost 4 years! I barely look after my hair either. So anyway that's why most of my makeup posts are about MAC, or my favourite Chanel.
I thought it was about time that I really started to look for the hidden gems in the highstreet, because I know that there is some! I read plenty of blog posts about highstreet products that people love, and I see them in use by beauty youtubers, so I trust that they are good!
