Skincare Haul

Hello Lovelies, I'm very sorry that I haven't been blogging or even doing a Sunday summary over the last week or so! I had been feeling unwell for a while but put it off, however by Easter Sunday I felt like death so me and my Mother went to hospital and I found out I had been struck down by a bad virus, I was given some tablets and was aloud to go after a few hours, but I'm still not 100%, I'm feeling much better though, even if I have wasted like half of my Easter holidays!:( 
On with the post, over the last couple of weeks I have had a huge skincare haul, which for me is really odd, I love messing around with make-up and I wear it most days, but I would much rather spend the big bucks on clothes than skincare. However my skin suffers badly and I get bad break outs as I just don't care for my skin! I went into boots to get so new foundation when my mum got talking to a No7 worker who said she would do the colour match foundation thing for me, although she did my whole face with skincare products! This is what I bought;

All purchased from boots with my own money

No7 Beautiful skin Cleansing Lotion £9.00- This amazing lotion just melts away all the make-up on your face leaving it clean and refreshed. Its formula works well to hydrate your skin, it's great as it's an all in one product!

No7 Beautiful skin Day cream £12.50- I have been using this every morning and every night and before make-up, it has really helped soften my skin and has reduced break outs massively! 

No7 stay perfect primer £12.50- This little bottle helps keep make-up on for longer, it also helps make-up move more freely around your face!

No7 Stay perfect liquid foundation £14.00- After using the colour match machine I was told my shade was cool vanilla which has quite a light pinky coverage, this foundation is matt and has a medium coverage lasting up to 16 hours, I love this, I have always just got the cheapest on offer foundation and was always an orangey colour! So this was a perfect alternative!

After using Johnston's make-up remover pads and niveas cleanser and toner also my skin is looking so much better and I now take much better care and you really do see results! 

What skincare do you use?

Sunday Summary #05

Hey lovelies!
I've got two post lined up for you, but they won't upland for some reason, but I'm going to try again tomorrow and hope they upload, there a little different to my usual posts, so if you are interested in beauty keep an eye open for my upcoming posts!

This week has been very stressful and draining! But I've actually had a good week, Monday has to have been the most boring day ever, I had a stressful start because my presentation for English went wrong because of a group member but I'm doing it again tomorrow and I'm shaking in my boots, I get very nervous when I haven't planned what to say! On Tuesday I went to Durham with my Philosophy and Ethics class for an lecture at the university, I think I've learned quite a bit however it was so intense and I was getting all confused because the breaks weren't very long! Wednesday... I really can't remember anything haha, so it can't have been the good or bad! Thursday, is usually my favourite day of my timetable week, but it has the hardest lessons, but I have the best classes my friends are literally the best and the make double history bearable! Friday, it snowed, weather by you so bipolar?! aha, I just want summer! I'm sick of all my black and dark clothes I want bright floral dresses back! 
This weekend I decided I really needed to get a grip of my school work I have four GCSE exams in 8 weeks and I'm so scared and I'm getting so stressed, I'm really behind with school because I'm always doing things like the musical and trips so I miss lessons! But I got distracted this weekend and have left it all to last minute, I have written an history essay in two hours and I know it's not good enough, however I've written a revision plan for the holidays so if I keep to it everything will be fine! *fingers crossed* 



^^ A picture of me ready for school on monday, ergh its such bad quality! haha!
Sorry for being so gloomy, I'll be cheerful soon as one more week then I have two weeks of! YEY! haha!
How are you all? Emeli x

March Wishlist


I'm really loving Zara at the moment, a lot of their items are so simple but I just love the quality of the products. I'm sure you will have seen this cat watch, it's from Ever-ours  it's such a lovely little online shop, but everything's so cheap I would recommend you check it out and see if you find anything you fancy! Everything else I have been lusting over for a while, but I've already spent all my money this month, so I will have to keep dreaming haha!

Sunday Summary #4

Hello Lovelies!
I haven't done a proper blog post since the end of February, but I have still been reading everyone else's blogs! You may have realised that this weekend I have changed a few things around on my blog, I felt like it was plain and boring. I like to keep my blog design quite simple, so I've just added a bit of blue here and there, and a photo, however I really like it! 

So I haven't been blogging because I've been busy with the school musical, the rehearsals were so draining and we had to go to school on mothering Sunday which wasn't really ideal, but we all go through it and performed the three nights well, even if the last night had a few hiccups it was a great experience and I have meet some lovely people throughout it! 

So other than that I have been really ill all week! Boo, I had completely lost my voice for the first part of the week and I was wondering if I would even be able to do the performances! Monday I was off school so I didn't talk all day, Tuesday I had to catch up on so much, so I was so tired  Wednesday was a full day rehearsal it went by so quickly though! Then there was a performance for the rest of the week! I'm still feeling quite ill but I'm getting through it, yesterday I just went to town and finally bought a skater skirt woo! Then today I'm just looking at a pile of homework thinking I best crack on with it!

I'm in the blue :)

How have you been? Anyone else been ill recently? 
Lot's of new posts lined up for you all!:)

Just a note to say...

Hello lovelies, I would just lie to say a quick apology, sadly I haven't been able to post recently because I'm so busy rehearsing for the musical, then the rest of my time is spent doing homework, it's not the best situation! This will continue till the end of next week *sob* but after that posts will resume as usual, and I have loads of great things to share with you! However for the time being I'm singing and dancing (terribly) haha! Well I better crack on with the rest of my geography homework- yey! So keep an eye out for posts in the next few weeks!Labels

Thank you Emeli! x

Sunday Summary #3

Hello lovelies, I still haven't done my recent buys post but I hoping it will be up by tomorrow! So my week, well it's been another busy one, I'm so knackered! Monday was the first day back after half term and it dragged so much! I got given so much school work boo:( so it was pretty uneventful! Tuesday I had two musical rehearsals, one at lunch time and one after school, I wasn't in the best of moods on Tuesday and Wednesday so I mainly just lay in bed and did homework! Thursday I had an after school rehearsal, it was a lot better, however I am now doing the exam work in history so it's getting a lot harder and time consuming so I was yawning the whole time aha! Friday was a lunch time rehearsal, its silly how much we have to practise! Friday night I just had a takeaway pizza and watched pretty little liars with my sister, Saturday I went into town with my mother to pick up some stuff for school, but ended up getting the No7 foundation match thing done so I bought lots of skincare goodies! Sunday I've had to go into school (10am-3pm) for another rehearsal! Now I'm hope I'm going to have to do even more homework! Wooo! It's been a long week and not the best, so I hope next weeks better!:)
