IBeautyFix AM Morning Cream

Hii! I hope you are all enjoying your holidays! It's been pretty nice weather here apart from the odd thunderstorm and random raining but besides that, its all good!

I am going to introduce you to another product from IBeautyFix which is the AM Morning Cream.

The cream came in a peachy pink box and looks cute and convenient. No unnecessary excess packaging, just the box and the cream.

The cream tub is simple, it looks almost as if the tub is water - as it is aqua cream it's very relevant.

The cream is thin and easy to use. It contains 23 natural extracts to form a hydro barrier to maintain the skins natural moisture.

I have sensitive skin and I find this morning cream to be very gentle and makes my skin feel much more awake in the mornings, I have had no reactions or anything so it is very gentle. Generally it has made my skin softer, without leaving it shiny or greasy. You can also get the PM night cream from IBeautyFix, which I haven't tried but if it is like the AM cream then I highly recommend it.

This cream costs £7.00 and you can get it here

If you haven't already, please join this blog under the followers tab on the right hand side near the top of this blog. I have just answers the door and have received another product from another business, here is a hint - it's fitness related! The parcel guy knows my name now because he delivers my parcels so much aha!

What do you think? Have you tried this cream? Do you use morning creams?

Hothair Fishtail Plait

Hey! I have been pretty busy and it's only the start of the summer holidays, but I'm not going on holiday now in this summer break so that means I can blog more!  I have been pretty busy reply to emails from businesses, keeping up to date with everything, trying out samples etc so that's kept me occupied :D

Hothair sent me over an email and I didn't no which product to choose because they have so many nice ones that I love love loveee! I ended up choosing the fishtail plait as it's quite unusual and I wanted to try it out for you and show you what it looks like. I have seen a few different designs of clip on fishtail plaits, some where they open up and clip you hair inside the length of the plait and some where it clips onto your pony tail.

This particular fishtail plait I was sent clips onto your pony tail, I have quite long hair so I wasn't sure if it was going to work. I sat at the mirror and had a go with it and failed the first few times, my hair was just to long. The fishtail braid is quite a bit longer than my hair so I wouldn't be able to get that length with my hair - and I cant do fishtails on my own hair anyway so this is a perfect fix. I do think this design best fits shorter hair, but I wasn't prepared to give up, I was determined to get this fishtail plait to fit on my hair and look good. I am going to tell you now, this post is pretty packed with photos of the product and also a quick and easy to follow photo tutorial.

The fishtail plait came in a small box 

I opened up the box and the fishtail was wrapped in a net to keep it safe and prevent any knotting.

I have taken out the fishtail plait for you to see. I think it's a bit strange, it's just unusual like someones plait has been cut off and it's right there! It looks so real! But don't worry, it hasn't :P

Above is a tutorial and a quick introduction by Hothair I thought I would share with you. You can also view on YouTube here.

I tried this and decided to do mine slightly different as my hair is longer.

I put my hair into a low side ponytail, made a gap above the hair bands with two fingers. Then I pulled the pony up and back through the gap, making the hair a bit shorter and also adding some twirled hair to the fishtail plait.

This is the fishtail plait attached above my hair band, with my hair swirled above the plait. I am wearing a two tops, that's not my bra I promise :P

If you are one of those girls that has always wanted hair down to your butt, you got it now gurl!

The fishtail plait comes in a range of different shades, the one I have is 'Creamy Twist' which has a mix of blondy shades which is really nice, as some places its either blonde or brown and then it's hard to find one that will blend in with your hair but this one is really good. The hair feels natural and also looks natural too.

The fishtail plait doesn't have to be used the normal way, if you have a play around with it you will find there are many other hairstyles you can create with it to. You could follow my simple photo steps below on how to do a flat bun using the fishtail plait.

I did this flat hair bun by putting my hair into a high side ponytail - you can do high centre if you want, I just wanted to do something different. I did the bands tight so the weight of the hair wouldn't make the bun slip.

I then clipped the fishtail plait above my hair bands.

Fasten the Velcro and wrap the plaits extra hair around the Velcro. 

I lifted the fishtail plait out of the way for now, while I twisted my own hair.

I wrapped my twisted hair around the fishtail plait and secured it with some hair pins.

Then the last step is to wrap the fishtail plait around your twisted hair bun and secure that too with some hair pins/grips. I then added a few hair pins to the top of the hair bun to make sure it had a flat top. I haven't got blonde hair pins but I'm sure you can get them and I really should do. I was going to do this tutorial as a video, but I need to get a tripod as my camera keeps falling and I don't want it to get broken.

You can get this fishtail plait here for £24.00

Eleanor wore a sheer tee and a wrap around skirt. She mixed the floaty chiffon with a textured skirt which is so simple but she looks amazing! She wore a loose plait with natural looking waves. She kept her makeup minimum and natural with just a bit of sheer pink lippy and a dash of apricot-toned blusher on her cheeks.

Ella Henderson wearing cat eye sunglasses

Ella Henderson has been spotted wearing some cat eye sunglasses

I saw these sunglasses and thought that they were pretty cool so I have found them and put them on here for all of you.

These cat eye sunglasses are from Chelsea Doll, they are chic, black with gold 'ear' tips on the frames. They come to you 'wrapped in love in pink paper'. It's been pretty sunny in the UK, or if you are anywhere sunny you should always remember to wear sunglasses to protect your eyes! You can't undo the sun damage to your eyes so you should do your best to prevent it.

There are many styles of sunglasses you can get, I see people wearing sunglasses when it's not even sunny. Simply because people also use them as a fashion accessory too and there is nothing wrong with that :)

You can get these sunglasses from Chelsea Doll here

They cost £11

I am going to go now, this was just a quick short one as the last ice cream one was just a short one too :)

Do you like these sunglasses? What is your fave style of sunglasses?

Just been to an Ice Cream Parlour!

A bunch of people from my brothers primary school just went to Newfield Ice Cream Parlour, I have never been to one of these before so I didn't no what to expect. I thought maybe it would be an American themed ice cream parlour Cafe? ... Wrong!

It was the cutest little farm cafe parlour! I didn't take many photo's I would have loved to but I felt a bit of a gorm photographing everything :s

We went up and the Parlour was on a dairy farm, and there was a field with lots of cute cows! To be specifical they are the ones that are used to make the ice cream. I love cows, I would love to have a pet cow if I lived on a farm :D

The Ice Cream Parlour overlooks beautiful scenery and these cows :)

That cow at the back, it was near the fence. I sat waiting for them to come near the fence and when one finally came over. I went over to the fence slowly and off it went. Thanks cow! -.-

I didn't take this photo, it's off their website as I did;t want the Parlour to think I was weird ahaa!

I should have asked them if I could take some photos in and around there to get them up on here; Maybe another time haay :)

The Parlour had a lovely country, but modern theme. There were big windows overlooking the fields and the children's park which is perfect for when the sun is out. There were benches outside if you prefer to sit out there, which is where we all sat. Or if it's chilly out, even in the winter if you fancy an ice cream there is a log burner to make you feel warm and cozy.

There was a nice range of ice creams and sorbets you could choose from. Can you spot the special for the new born royal baby boy? I didn't try that one but it sure looked tasty!

I chose the chocolate and the mint choc chip. 

Here is my ice cream, the size is amazing! I mean whenever I have ice cream, I want ice cream. I don't want a little scoop. The prices were a little more than buying normal ice cream. This is handmade on the farm itself. I would like to know more about it and their story, so maybe I will be able to one day.

Anyway, so far I think the best ice cream I have ever had was in Italy. Their ice cream was to die for! We would walk for miles away from where we were on holiday and stop for ice creams at lots of different ice cream stalls. The would have crazy flavours that I didn't actually no because they were in Italian. I have to say, the two flavours I tried are one of best I've tried other than those in Italy. They were so creamy and full of flavour. They did melt super quick, but I'm guessing that is because they are hand made and not processed without all of the rubbish that processed foods can come with. Some of the kids there had is all over the face, which I found quite amusing, they must be enjoying it! :D

I am going to get going now, If I get to go there again I will try to get more photos and info for you :D Please join this blog (under the followers tab)

Do these ice creams look tasty or what?! What is your favorite ice cream?

IBeautyFix eyeshadows

I have been busy with ffh, I have loads of businesses contacting me to collaborate with them, I have contacted some too, so basically I have loads of posts lines up with fantastic fashion/beauty/fitness/hair businesses that I am so excited to share with you! I will be uploading these over my holidays, so keep an eye out for them all! You could join this blog to keep up to date with my posts :)

I received three eye shadows from IBeautyFix 

Here are is a photo of the eye shadows open. The three shades are:

No 9. Light Grey

No 6. Lavender

No 4. Orange Gold

Here is a close up of one of the eye shadows cases.

I swatched the eye shadows on my hand to show you the shades of each. 

The eye shadows have a very soft powder which makes the application easier. 

They contain natural plant oil extract to moisturize and protect the skin. It also contains micro fit powder to give it staying power!

The colours aren't dark so it means you can apply a natural looking shade, or you can build it up to make it more noticeable.

You can create many looks with these eye shadows. You can make it flirty, smokey or natural. 

I decided to apply all three shades at once, starting with No 6 to the inner corner of my eye lid and half the eye line underneath. I then applied No 4 to the middle section of the eye lid and No 9 on the outer side of the eye lid getting darker towards to the side and also half a line under the eye line. Blending all the colours in to create the gradient.

These eye shadows cost £5.99 from IBeautyFix.

Lylia Rose Owl Necklace

This month I picked an owl necklace from Lylia Rose.

I have seen this style of jewellery before on many celebrities and I also me and my dad really want an owl! Last Christmas my dad decided to buy my mum presents with owls on them; owl jewellery, owl jumpers, owl t-shirts etc just to make the point he really wanted an owl.

I know your thinking, that's crazy! ahaa! it's actually the way we got my dog too. My dad didn't want a dog and my mum, sister, brother and me stuck dog pictures all over the house until he gave in :P

Abby Sciuto from ncis

Alexa Chung wearing a small owl necklace

Demi Lovato wearing a big owl necklace

Owls are definitely in fashion! they can be cute, edgy or just to add a bit of detail to a look.

Layla Rose have a range of owl jewellery you can get in rings and necklaces, coloured, vintage, big, small. To be honest I couldn't choose on my own I asked my dad which one he liked best from my favorite ones!

The Lylia Rose necklace came in a little organza gift bag and wrapped up in a pink and white striped paper bag. Love these little fancy gift bags >.<

Here is me and my big owl necklace! I t had a rather long chain and I was struggling to get it on the photo with me when the camera is zoomed in so I'm wearing and lifting it up :) I have a new camera now that takes better pictures too, just need to get a tripod so I can position it :)

Here is a close up of the necklace on my arm. The owl has separate pieces attached on rings so that it can move around. The necklace has a cute vintage look to it and a long chain. How cute are those eyes?! 

You can get this necklace for only £5.00! from Lylia Rose here. 

Here is their Twitter

Do you have any owl jewellery? What your your favorite owl jewellery piece from Lylia Rose's website? Do you have any owl themed clothing? If you get any owl jewellery from Lylia Rose and you would like to tweet me a picture to my twitter here. I may post it on here with a link back to your twitter! :)

Liebster Award Questions from Sarah

I have had a few people say to me that they have nominated me for the Liebster Award, to be honest I was completely unaware of what this was - sorry to the who nominated me and I didn't no about it D:

I have looked around and I think I found that the Liebster award is not something you get a physical prize from. It is more of a award which bloggers give other bloggers and it is a good way of connecting with other blogs and also good for getting more exposure.
The rules:

1. Share 11 things about  yourself
2. Answer the 11 questions that your tagger gave you
3. Choose blogs to nominate
4. The nominees must have less than 200 Google Friend Connect Followers and be told via comment on their blog
5. Think of 11 questions to ask the bloggers that were nominated 
6. Thank the person that nominated you and link back their blog

I will start by sharing 11 things about myself:

1. I have to get up at 6am every morning for college

2. I tend to say the most stupid, random things without thinking and people find that funny

3. I love love love chocolate!

4. I can have a short attention span

5. I think One Direction are amazing. End of.Infact at their concert 5sos's tour bus nearly hit me when I saw Harry getting into his van.

6. I do the stupidest things, run and jump into walls, fall up the stairs and straight through classroom doors which are in mid-lesson D:

7. I don't like reading books, the only book I read since primary is One direction's, other than that only fashion magazines.

8. I'm smart but got no common sense is what my family and friends says -.-

Sarah's questions to me:

1. If you could have any animal for a pet, what would it be?
- That's a hard one, I love loads of animals... A zebra! 

2. Give 3 word's that would best describe your blog?
- Honest, fashionable, awsomeee :P

3. Why did you start blogging?
- I was finding things hard, I lost my nan and in general I felt a little lost. I found a site called blogger and thought I'd try it out, it was a great way to take my mind off things and express myself, I've always been fascinated with fashion, celebs, fitness, gadgets, nail art etc so being able to share with the world is pretty cool. Also I started doing my modelling, catwalking at places like the London 02, so it gave me more of a passion to get involved in blogging and connecting with more people.

5. If you could be any character from your favorite book, who would it be and why?
:O ... Admitting I haven't read a book since primary school accept the One direction ones. I would have to go for one from my primary school ... ohh I cant even remember one! D:

6.Who takes your photos?
I am a self confessed poser. I take my own photos or I get anyone else to take them,  photographers when on shoots and shows.

7. Who is your favorite actress?
Not really sure but if I have to pick I'd say Emma Roberts, still watch Wild Child and Aquamarine aha! :P

8. Would you rather buy shoes or bags?
Shoes all the way! I find myself getting shoes I like but would never actually wear because I'm tall already. 

9. If you could spend a day with Anna Wintour or Karl Lagerfeld, who would you choose?
Karl Lagerfeld

10. If you could live in any other country, where would it be and why?

Snuggaroo Delivery!

I was so excited when I got this parcel today that I literally couldn't wait to open it up! Basically I'm writing this today (Tuesday) and I'm going to upload it tomorrow. So your reading it today but I written it yesterday. You got that? Ahaaa!

I usually upload posts as soon as I write them but I wanted to save this one so I could upload it in the morning instead of afternoon so you would all see it - the postman came in the afternoon.

Anyway........

Can you guess what it is?

What about now?! :D

So it is a jumpsuit from Snuggaroo! And it's pink!

I quickly climbed into it and the first thing I noticed was how soft the inside was! It's like a baby lambs bum!.. I'm guessing that's be soft and fluffy? Well anyway its sooo soft!

Here is their logo on the onsesie jumpsuit, you can literally see the bouncy, soft material here.

Leigh-Anne From Little Mix wears a pink cute pink onesie jumpsuit and puts an edgy swing on it but wearing some tan boots, a denim jacket and some sun glasses. Jumpsuits can be accessorized in so many different ways, and worn for many places. I have saw people wearing these to the shops, out in the snow, to college, on planes and ferries etc. 

This is the back of the jumpsuit has a low butt area, which I really like. My legs are very long and my butt still sits above so that's good :) I have bought onesies and jumpsuits before where the legs are too short for me meaning my butt isn't in the right place but this ones brill :P

It has two pockets on the tummy and two low pockets on the legs so you can tuck your hands in and keep them warm :) 

The front of the jumpsuit.

You can get this onesie here

It was £129.99 but now costs £79.99!! 

There are other onsesie brands that have prices around £170 so this is a great price; and honestly the quality of it is amazing!

Snuggaroo is a business selling mainly onesies. Snuggaroo is here because they themselves were previous students. As you may know it can be hard to earn money and study at university at the same time. They spent eight years living in freezing cold student houses with rattling windows and zero insulation, as a result they wanted to find a way to stay warm and comfy. They designed a range of adult footed pyjamas and hooded onesies in lots of fun patterns and colours. The main aim of the onesies was warmth, comfort and style so Snuggaroo is bound to have something for you. to keep you warm day and night.

The main priority of Snuggaroo is that they provide a first rate hassle free service and to provide quick delivery worldwide. I got my onesie the next day! :)

They welcome feedback from you so they can work to produce and deliver the products that you want.

Do you have a onesie? What do you think of onesies? Do you like this Snuggaroo onesie jumpsuit? What is your favorite piece from their website?
