Bronze Eyes and Dark Nude Lips- Simple Makeup Look

Hey guys!

This is a look I created a while ago just on a day when I was going for lunch with my friend. I also got my hair wash, cut and blowdried that morning so that's why it's looking all sleek and not crazy. As I didn't really have anywhere else to go other than lunch and I didn't want the look to go to waste, I decided to take some selfies because why not? If you think you're looking damn fine you take those selfies girl.

Anyway I thought that I would share this look with you today as I had the pictures on my camera and thought I might as well throw them up here!

Summer Holiday Haul

Hey guys!
As you're reading this I'll actually be in Croatia cause this is a post I had pre-prepared! After months of being cooped up studying in my room I finally got to hit the shops and God had I missed them. On this day we only had a couple of hours so I didn't get a huge amount but I did get some holiday essentials.

I'm Back!

Hey guys!

I can't believe that it's been 5 weeks since my last post!! Throwback to my 2016 Goals  when I said that I would post at least once every two weeks haha. But I do have a pretty good excuse because I sat my Leaving Cert from the 8th to the 23rd of June. So, obviously I've been pretty busy studying for that and since then I've been pretty busy celebrating the fact that it's  over!

OOTD 6 May

Hey guys!

I go to a uniform wearing school so my usual daily attire is shirt and tie however every now and again we have 'casual days'. These are days when you can wear your own clothes and pay 2 euro in aid of some charity. Yesterday was one of these casual days and this is what I wore. Of course I went with my classic high waisted black jeans and superstars. I actually wore the shirt but I thought a denim jacket would also go well with this outfit!

Tips for Practical Exams

Hey guys!

Apologies for the 2 weeks abscence since my last post! I recently had my Irish oral (counts for 40% of overall exam), French oral (25% of overall) and music practical (50% of overall!) for my Leaving Cert. It’s fair to say they were a pretty stressful 2 weeks. But luckily I made it through and I thought today I could give a few tips based on my experience. I’m not even sure if other countries have practical and oral exams but hopefully this might be helpful in some way anyway!

1.    Start prepping early
I think it’s especially tempting for practical exams to leave everything until the last minute. You don’t necessarily need to spend hours studying but if you’re not prepared you will regret it! Try and do a bit every night leading up to the exams rather than leaving it all until the last week, you’ll save yourself a lot of stress.

March Favourites

Hey guys!
I haven’t done a favourites post in aaages because to be honest I use the same things all the time! The only things that really change regularly are the songs I listen to and shows I watch. But anyway I thought I would do one this month because I love hearing about other people’s favourites.

Revlon Colorstay Foundation&Revlon Photoready primer REVIEW

Hey guys!


So I mentioned in my Winter Haul post a while back that I bought the Revlon Colourstay foundation and the Revlon Photoready primer. Today, as you probably have already guessed from the title, I’m going to review both these products.
Now I had been eyeing up this foundation for a while. I had heard good things, but for a drugstore foundation I thought it was a bit on the pricey side (it retails for about 18euro in Ireland). However I received some Boots vouchers for Christmas and I thought might as well give it a go.
I think you can imagine how annoyed I was when I went back a week later to the very same Boots and saw that they were having a 2 for €20 offer on Revlon face products! So to suppress my anger I decided that I was still going to benefit from this offer and bought another Colourstay foundation and the Photoready primer.
