Favourites | October 2014

Another month over and another month closer to the end of the year. Can you believe it's nearly Christmas?! This month there isn't much that I have been loving that different from before but these little beauties have made my life considerably better!

Haul | Amazon

I haven't done a haul in a long time as I have tried to do a spending ban - which didn't work and then I had to buy christmas presents. Yes, I buy my christmas presents this early you can all be jealous as I tell you all I need to do is wrap them. So I thought while I have a few new goodies I'd show you what I bought!

Monthly Round Up | Books and TV

Well this month has been a roller coaster ride for me with these stories. I've even written a few reviews on them! These books were incredible.

Make Up Look | Halloween Pt.2

Disclaimer: This is NOT a tutorial. This is merely a show and tell. Make Up done by Amy. 


With Halloween only a few days away I thought I would do a more full look for those of you who want to be a bit more into the look.

Under Inspection | Loreal True Match Foundation

After spending hours trying to find a shade to suit my skin I finally managed to pick one of these bad boys up. I was starting to think there wasn't a true match for me at all - that would have been amusing!

Not Your Usual Blog Post

Usually I am not one for slandering other writers but I believe Chloe Hamilton's most recent post to be completely unethical compared to her other work. I realise she has a job to do along with her own opinions but, in my opinion, writing things that be little someone’s success when they have worked hard to achieve their dreams is wrong. I’m all for an opinionated post now and then but to criticize Zoe about her beauty advice is ridiculous. I mean, would you slander Jennifer Lawrence for stating that she’ll never stop eating or diet down to get an acting role? Would you say that was her telling girls to be fat? No. You wouldn’t. So why do it to someone just because they’re on YouTube talking about make up?

Pinterest | Halloween Costumes

As you know October is the month of Halloween and so along with make-up I'm going to be bringing you costumes! So click read more to see the selection of costumes I found on pinterest - here's my favourites.

Plymouth Photo Shoot | Diana Part One

As you know a while back I went to a photo shoot to see how things work and take some behind the scenes photos. If you haven't already, go check out my post on the first model Nina, which you can see by clicking here. 

Our second model was a lovely lady by the name of Diana.

Make Up Look | Halloween Pt. 1

Disclaimer: This is NOT a tutorial. This is a make up look my friend Amy and Myself created (mainly her) and I am merely showing you photos and products that we used. 

October means only one thing - Halloween. That time of year where everyone dresses up. Usually in a normal outfit covered in blood but today I thought I'd bring you a simple eye look that you could put with most items of clothing and go out in. For those of you who aren't into full face scary make up.

Birchbox | October 2014

This months box is all about #coppafeel in aid of breast cancer, as October is Breast Cancer aware month. So click read more and come coppafeel with me -

Under Inspection | Stila Lip & Cheek Stain

On my weekend down in plymouth with Amy I raided her stash for products to review and I came across these beauties.

The Halloween Tag

So it's the month of Halloween and I found this Tag online and so I've decided to give it a go. Unfortunately I am unable to find the original site that I googled this tag for but hopefully some of you guys might know and can give them the credit! 

The Hair Tag

Thank you to Amanda for tagging me to do this! You can see her post by clicking here and according to her post this was originally created by Amy so go check her out here. I also stole the picture she used on her tag! Sorry about that! aha!

Top Ten | Films

Today I decided to share with you my favourite films. I'm doing a top ten because the list would be endless if I listed them all and since my week off where I watched a lot while I did quite a bit of writing I felt this was an appropriate post to do.

Highend | Not Worth The Hype

This will be my last post of my Drugstore/Highend series. To see the others click here to see the previous high end post and use the navigation on the side to see the drugstore ones. I don't really have a lot of high end products so I might revisit it if I ever buy more!

Under Inspection | Clinique Even Better Foundation

This is the first ever high end foundation, and originally I wasn't sure that high end, or any foundations would work with my skin.

Wishlist | October 2014

I know it's a random photo but I like to have a photo in the beginning and a photo after you've clicked "read more". Plus I didn't want to give away my wish list too soon. So wanna know what I am coveting this month? Please read on...

Book Review | Rebel by Amy Tintera

So after reading a load of book reviews online I decided to give my hand a go at my own version of a book review, which I am going to do in the same style as my Under Inspection posts. 

101 Things In 1001 Days

After realising that little lists and big lists and schedules weren't working for me I started finding these posts everywhere and they inspired me to arrange my own. So I've decided I'll do the challenge and see if I can create some good habits along the way - although I fear I may not get the chance to complete them all. I am, however, going to attempt it the best I can.

The image and inspiration come from a blog I found and you can read their post here.

Drugstore | Not Worth The Hype

Last month I did a post on a few drugstore products that I feel are worth your pennies. This month I'm doing an opposite post. Some of these products I've spoken about before but they really aren't worth the hype that surrounds them.

Under Inspection | Thea Skincare

Not too long ago the lovely people at Thea Skincare sent me a couple of products to try out and review. Starting to feel like a real blogger now!

What I Want To Watch This Month | October 2014

This month is an exciting month for TV and Film, well for me at least. 

Book Review | The Recruit Book One by Elizabeth Kelly

Disclaimer: This book is aimed at Adults, if you are under 18 please proceed with caution at language  and descriptions used. Please excuse the Image from Amazon, I wasn't sure I was going to get back into book reviews so needed a quick picture. They'll get better I promise!

October TBR

This month is going to be one of my favourite months for reading. Literally every book I have been waiting for or wanting to read is finally in my possession and ready to blow my mind.
