100 Bloglovin' Followers!

This was my face when I recieved the email telling me i now have 100 followers on bloglovin'

I never in a million years thought i would get 10 people that actually want to read my blog, let alone 100 of you lovely people! 
I know for most of you out there, you have probably already passed this, and many more milestones in blogging. You may not think it is a big achievement compared to your own, but I can't tell you how shocked I am, considering I have been blogging properly for only three months now.
I am so negative about everything, that I finally do feel like I can try to be more positive about my blog posts, now I know that people actually want to read what i have to say. So for that, I say thank you!
I guess I should get my act together and start buying a few more products to review for you all!

Boots Haul | Beauty reviews

Today I'm going to give a few reviews on my recent purchases from Boots. I wanted some more VO5 hair mousse, and couldn't resist the 3 for 2 offer they had on. 

After using a friends Avon make-up remover lotion, i absolutely loved it. I had never heard of a make-up remover lotion before, so i knew i just had to try it properly.  I didn't want to have to wait for Avons lotion to arrive, so instead took my chances with the 3 for 2 at Boots. For me, it isn't as i expected. I didn't find it oily, as other people have suggested. Though i did find that, when i got it in my eyes (which was a lot), it absolutely stung. The whole process was extremely messy too. Though i am used to using make-up wipes instead, so it's probably usual for liquid make-up removers. Maybe it's because it was my first time using it, and there is probably a much better technique to it, so i will carry on using it anyway. It does somehow magically break down all of my make-up though, so it does do a good job, and conditions my eyes really well afterwards. For £1.50, you can't really complain though, since it is a good make-up remover (when it isn't in your eyes).

I also picked up Rimmel London's Scandaleyes liquid eyeliner. If you have read my previous post (here) you will know i love the Scandaleyes khol eyeliner, so felt the need to try the liquid version- plus it was only £5.99. I've used it for around a week now, and i'm still trying to make up my mind about it. This is the first liquid eyeliner i have tried, so i've not really god a basis to go on, or to judge it by. 
The tip is thin enough to create tiny lines, which is great for smokey eyes, or simple everyday looks. However, i found that after only a few hours, the colour starts to fade, and it turns a more grey colour. I'm keen to find out how long it lasts for, and whether it will easily dry up too, since you obviously don't have that problem with pencil eyeliners. It's a lot easier to take off too, compared to the Scandaleyes khol eyeliner, so that is a plus. 




I will also be giving a review of VO5 Pump it Up mousse soon, as it's the best mousse i have ever tried!

Cute Cow Bath Set

 How cute is this?!
I wanted to share with you today this cute little bath set. I got it as a christmas present and i've not wanted to use it because of how cute it is as a set! The tin box itself will come in great handy with storing all my recent beauty purchases, and the shower gel smells so good! 
The set contains shower gel, soap, a sponge, a plastic massager and a cute little nail brush in the shape of a cow. I'd love to find out where it is from, because i would definitely stock up on them for friends birthdays! I always find myself collecting ridiculous amounts of bath and body products, but this is by far one of my cutest in my ever growing collection.

Shopping for Summer | Contest Give Away

I hope i'm not the only one already shopping for summertime outfits. Summer is definitely the best time of year for me, since i am always cold as it. And theres nothing better than wearing cute outfits and being able to go out in them, rather than covering it all up with a massive coat! You may hopefully have noticed by now that i work for New Look, so everything i buy/want to buy will be from there. I absolutely love the stock we get in throughout the summer, and i always spend way too much money on new things. I also spend endless hours on their website, putting together cute little outfits that i always end up buying. So today i thought i would share one of them with you. 

I know it's still not quite warm enough to wear it just yet, but i will still be buying it in preparation for the summer. I really love the festival look of these clothes, and it's what i had in mind when picking them out. I've never been to a music festival, but i would like to think that when i do go, i would wear something like this. I love the fact with these picks too, they can be reused in other ways. You can never have enough jewellery or shoes either! 

1. Denim Gilet- £14.99 
2. Aztec earrings- £2.99
3. Strapless playsuit- £12.99 
4. Gold plated sandals- £24.99 
5. Aztec cuff bangle- £5.99 
6. Dented gold necklace- £7.99
