New Hair

Over the years i have had many different colours of hair but generally stuck to the style being long and natural. I have wanted to change my hair style a while now, and now i've changed a few things in my life recently i thought why not just try something new, hair grows back after all! I was initially going to go for a length that was just longer than my shoulders and maybe add a few layers in there, but i thought to myself if i'm going to cut my hair dramatically i technically have to do it short, so thats exactly what i did. I kept the blonde ends on my hair and dark roots and i think it looks even better on my hair now its shorter. My hair feels healthier and so much lighter. Managing it is probably the biggest bonus from getting it cut as not only does it dry super quick, it doesn't look dry so i don't have to use as much product on it. This was such a nerve wracking process for me, i haven't had short hair since i was in reception at primary school and i was dressed as a little pudding, and oh boy did i look like a pudding, the hair finished it off - it was cut by my unexperienced in hairdressing mother at the time so you can imagine how i looked.

Anyway, here are some pictures of my new hair.

Daily Brows

As some of you may know, my favourite part of my makeup routine is doing my eyebrows. They are so important when it comes to your makeup, especially in the shaping of your face! I am a perfectionist when it comes to them and if anything is out of place it can make your whole face messy and uneven and its a serious pet peeve of mine. I agree with the quote "your eyebrows are sisters and not twins" and yeah mine are sisters... just ones that look a little bit like twins! I have to have them almost identical and in a specific shape and colour, if one side is slightly different, i have to restart from scratch! Im going to tell you how i achieve my eyebrows, products i use and any tips and tricks i may have when creating the perfect brow. Some of my favourite eyebrows belong to the likes of kylie jenner, sherylin fenn, brooke sheilds and kim kardashian. Oh and of course angelina! The look i tend to go for is a more arched HD brow with a realistic effect. I dont like my eyebrows to look too harsh or 'boxy' i like them to be softer at the front and darker at the arch and at the end, this creates a more natural looking HD brow.

1. First i prepare my skin for any plucking of hair. I apply vaseline to my brows and brow bone to help with the process, this makes the hairs easier to slide out from the follicle and it hurts a lot less. After i have them in the shape i want them, i gently dab witch hazel over them to help with the redness and swelling on my skin.

2. After i've plucked the unwanted hairs away, i use a small angled brush and dip it into my sleek eyebrow palette which is a combination of a powder and a paste/gel which is similar to the anastasia BH dip brow pot. I create definition on my brow by drawing a line with the gel under my eye, slightly lighter at the front of my brow. This outlines my eyebrows and helps with the HD effect.

3. Once i have the same line on both eyes i will then go in with the powder from the palette and fill my brows in, following the same way the hair is going and gradually building up the colour more towards the arch and tail of my brows.

4. When i get to the front on my brow, i just take whatever is left on my brush from the powder and lightly follow the hairs and then blend the whole eyebrow together. This leaves you with a kind of ombre effect which looks HD but soft and realistic at the same time.

5. To clean up my brows i will go around them with mac studio fix fluid incase i have smudged it anywhere. This also further defines the shape of the brow. Then finally i like to add a tiny bit of highlighter to my brow bone to highlight my arch.


After you have followed these steps you will be left with something a bit like this.

My Weekend Face

Over the weekend i went to celebrate one of my oldest and dearest friends on graduating! she is now a fully qualified lovely little nurse! It was really nice to catch up and see some old friends who i went to school with all that long time ago. I was surprised to see that things hadn't changed much and apart from the numerous amounts of hair colour changes, we all pretty much look the same. We started off in the back garden, catching up and talking about funny memories we had of each other when growing up, one of them being when i was the victim of a serious fringe attack, and another of when i hit my friend with a roller skate in the face! (desirable friend) Then i was delighted with a free bar in the garden! I don't really know if i should use the word 'delighted' because i really regret it being there now, i drank copious amounts of vodka before the place filled up and my head is still hurting to this day. There was also an impressive buffet there with the most amazing little treats but i was good and only ate fruit, but i'm assuming this was because i was already drunk at this point and i wasn't hungry, or that the taste of the strawberry being in my champagne drew me to the fruit bowl! After we had all had one too many vodkas we decided we should go ''out out'' and it all went downhill from the moment we got in the car to Liverpool. It was worth it though!
