Hello everybody - Merry Christmas! It's been a hectic few months and since I last posted on here I've turned 18 and into a 'responsible' adult. Ooh the irony. Santa also was incredibly generous with his gifts and at risk of breaking blogging 'tradition' and the fact that I never posted my haul last year ( turns out I took the photos...
Sleek Eyes and Cheek Palette (Dancing til Dusk) / £9.99 After watching the new John Lewis AD on loop, I thought I'd turn all festive and showcase one of my favourite products and ideal stocking filler -The Sleek Eyes and Cheek Palette! This palette is extremely versatile and meets the high quality that I would expect of Sleek products. The eyeshadows are extremely pigmented and long...
Recently I've had the opportunity to try out some new skincare devices so I thought I'd share my first impressions with you in the form of some mini reviews. .. Hydralauron Moisture Gel/ £24.99/ I had never tried a moisture jelly or gel for that matter and now I wouldn't go back. This sinks in virtually instantly leaving no sticky...
Hello! Today I am going to share my go-to makeup routine for early autumn mornings when I've only got 5 minutes to spare! My overall makeup looks remains pretty simple and similar throughout the school year however items such as foundation are constantly on rotation as I can't help but try new ones! My foundation of choice at the minute is the Rimmel...
[Photo by ME] I've been feeling rather down recently so when I saw that Sophie Rose had decided to create her own tag - 'bringing out the best in you' - I thought why not!? Something a little different on here but as Sophie said, sharing everything you love about yourself with others is a great way to boost your confidence and hopefully...
Make-Up: Seventeen Wow 3 Way Highlighter I bought this in hope that it would be a more affordable dupe of the MAC strobe cream/liquid, a light iridescent highlighter that I could use before, after or with my foundation. In reality, I couldn't get this to work on top of my foundation without it taking my foundation off with it or when using...
RESULTS DAY 2013 I’ve been meaning to write this post as soon as Year 12 kicked in almost 12 months ago but instead I decided to wait until the year was fully completed, and for GCSE results day, before sharing my full reflection. BACKGROUND/ GCSE RESULTS/A LEVEL CHOICES Back in August 2013 I was delighted to find that I'd gained 6 A*s 5...
I've been well overdue a Daily Makeup post so what better time than now to share with you the makeup that made the cut on my recent trip to Mallorca, a what's in my makeup bag, summer holiday edition if you will... When packing I tried to be very selective with the products I was going to pack in my case with the...
You may have seen me ramble on about the infamous Real Techniques brushes, namely their face brushes, however there has now been a now-not-so-new foundation tool in town, the RT Miracle Complexion Sponge and this really is a miracle worker. Where you thought your foundation looked amazing before, you NEED to try this. When held under running water, and the excess rung out, this...
I'll admit, MAC MSF in Soft and Gentle shall always have a place in my heart, however, when I spotted a shiny new Sleek stand in Boots I couldn't say no to this contour kit that has always been on my wish list and much hyped about. The first thing I noticed about the highlighter, compared to Soft and Gentle, was that it...
Yesterday I spent the majority of my day baking and Instagramming (@BethME) my favourite sweet treat, macaroons!

(Recipe Source) Ingredients: Macaroon: 170g icing sugar 160g ground almonds 120ml egg whites from about 4 medium eggs, separated into 2 equal batches...
It doesn't seem two minutes since I posted my last beauty empties but I've soon managed to rack up a substantial bag of beauty trash to share with you! Avon Senses Lemon Lime and Ginger Shower Gel I was a little underwhelmed by Avon shower gels. You could hardly distinguish the scent and despite producing a rich and foamy lather, I didn't feel...
