My mini Primark Haul :)




Hello everyone! I hope your all okay? 
Today I thought I would write a blog post on the clothes I brought from Primark, I didnt buy alot as you can see but I thought I would still write a post. I hope you enjoy it! :) I was ment to go to Primark for a swimming costume/bikini as me and my boyfriend was taking our son swimming for the first time! We had such a lovely time! we all really enjoyed it, we will be definatley be going again soon! I wasnt planning on buying anything else but these things caught my eye and I had to buy them. I love Primark I have been shopping there for years! it is just so affordable!



I was going to buy a bikini but when I was trying it on I just didnt feel comfortable as I still have a bit on my pregnancy weight (although I am only a size 8) ... and then I found this pretty swimming costume! I love this swimming costume it is so comfortable! it covers everything so I had no worries of anything being on show that shouldnt lol! the only thing I didnt like about the swimming costume was that the strapes to hold it up are not sewn on they are held on by clips which kept popping off even when just swimming which was a little bit worrying! You can also wear it strapeless so I know why they have designed it like this, I just wish if the clips would have held better! I had to get a size 10 as I found the size of this was to small. But overall I am happy with this purchase! it only cost £10! 



I love this shoes! I have seen loads of people wearing these and I wondered where they had been buying them from, When I went into Primark I went to the shoe section and I found them! I wasn't to keen on the heart that was on them but you can take the heart of if you wanted to, but the more I wore them the more I actually liked it being on the shoe. The shoes are really comfortable, I just wish that I would of got one size bigger, I brought 3-4 when actually my shoe size is 4-5! Next time I go to Primark I will definatley be picking up more in different colours and a bigger size! :) I actually cannot remember how much they were.


It was about time I brought some new summer shorts! I loved these shorts straight away, But when I looked for my size they did not have any! me and boyfriend was then looking round trying to find some like it and my boyfriend spotted these pair and luckily they was my size I was so happy. I love these shorts they are so comfortable! I usually struggle to find clothes that fit because I am only 4ft 11 my trousers and shorts are usually long when I get them in a size 8, but these fit perfectly! these were £10.



I also brought these pair of shorts, I like that these are just plain they will go with pretty much any top! These fit perfectly too, These are just a light denim. These was £10 also.



I brought three of these plain strap tops, these are just so handy to wear under things and even by them self. They are so comfy to wear, the material are thin so they are good for summer but are possible to thin to wear in the winter unless you are wearing a jumper over the top. I brought these for £2.00 ( What a bargin!) hence why I brought three! :)


These have got to be my favourite out of everything I brought! I wasnt planning on getting any dungaree as I have never really seen a pair that I really like, but these I liked straight away because of the design of them. They have little white prints of Mickey Mouse on them! Which everyone who knows me knows that I love anything Disney. These are quiet a thick denim material, they are really comfortable to wear! I wear this outfit one or two ways either as it is in the picture or un clipped with the front bit down with the strap tops I brought. On the inside at the back there are prints of Mickey Mouses head but these are more detailed. These only cost £10 which I was over the moon with.


I hope you guys enjoyed this type of blog post, hopefully there will be more of these. 
Thankyou for reading this post, I will be writing another one soon.
Bye for now! :)

Glossybox July 2014


July Glossybox stars and stripes
box print. 
Hello everyone!  I hope your all okay?
Today I am going to do a post about the July Glossybox. I have been subscribed to Glossybox for seven months now, and I can still say that I love Glossybox! I love the excitement I get when I know that my Glossybox has been sent, this is because I love trying out new products! Normally the Glossyboxes comes with a magazine, this Glossybox did not come with a magazine, it just came with a card that tells you what products that are in the box and where you can purchase them from and weather they are full size or not. 




The beauty products that came in my
Glossybox.

                                                                                          Color Club Glossy Seal

This is the Color Club nail varnish in the colour Glossy Seal. I have never heard of this nail varnish brand before but I can say that I love it! The nail varnish is very easy to apply it applies smoothly and evenly and my nails only needed one coat but on the card they tell you to use two. I love the colour of this nail varnish, I do not have a colour like this in my nail varnish collection. I like that this product drys quickly so if you are in a rush you have not got to worry about the drying time. I also love that the nail varnish stays on for ages without chipping! ( Which everyone wants with a nail varnish!) This nail polish costs $8 and that works out around £4.70 for a 15ml. At the moment this is exclusive to Glossybox so I cant at the moment tell you where you can buy this product from but Glossybox has stated the price and the company that makes this nail polish (http://shopcolorclub.com/)

Nail varnish once it has been applied.

Bellapierre Cosmetics Ltd mineral lipstick

This is the Bellapierre Mineral lipstick in the colour Mandarina. I have recieved a product from the same company in a previous Glossybox and I really liked the product I just did  not like the colour, which unfortunatley is the same with this product! I love the lipstick its self I found that it left my lips feeling like I did not have a lipstick on it felt more like I was wearing a lip balm. The product is formulated with natural waxes, mineral pigments and anti oxidants including vitamin C and E. This lipstick is one of the best that I have smelt. I will a 100% be purchasing this lipstick but just in a different shade. This lipstick costs £20, you can purchase this product from http://www.bellapierre.co.uk/shop/index.php/mineral-lipstick.html

The lipstick once it has been applied.


Tarte lights, camera, lashes 4-in-1 mascara

 This is the Tarte lights,camera,lashes 4-in-1 mascara. Despite the name I felt as though this was more for a everyday mascara! I applied the mascara onto my lashes the same way that I apply my current mascara and I found that it gave me a very minimal look rather than the way the product has been described. I applied another coat to see if this would make my eye lashes look fuller but it just did not make a difference. The mascara is very nice to wear if you dont want to look like you are wearing alot of mascara. I love the packaging to this product it is very unique! This is a sample size product, the full size costs £ 19.50 for 7ml, at the moment it is on offer for £17.76  you can purchase this fromhttp://www.qvcuk.com/tarte-Lights%2c-Camera%2c-Lashes-4-in-1-Mascara.product.205116.html?sc=SRCH&cm_sp=VIEWPOSITION-_-10-_-205116

Mascara once it has been applied.
                                                 
                         ABSOLUTE New York Perfecting Eyeshadow Primer

This is the ABSOLUTE New York Perfecting Eyeshadow Primer. I do not really wear eyeshadow but I will start to experiment on different eyeshadows and techniques, but this product can be used not only as a primer for your eyeshadow, you can use it by itself to reduce redness to the eyes, which is used for when the little one gets me up at 5.30 in the morning lol! Compared to other brands that leave your eye lid feeling sticky this leaves your eyes feeling smooth and soft whilst still holding on to your eyeshadow! The cost of this product is $4.99 which is £2.90. You can purchase this product from http://www.nicka.com/navigation-menu/eye/primer/perfecting-eye-shadow-primer

Carmex Lip Balm

This is the Carmex lip balm. I am pretty sure that everyone has heard of this product before! but for you guys that havent it is a must have lip balm in your everyday makeup/handbag. This product works really well with people that have really dry lips like myself to sooth the lips and make them feel soft! Once applied the lip balm it leaves a tingling sensation which some people may not be a fan of but me personally I love because it feels like it is actually working! The lip balm is quiet thick so you only need a small amount to do the job plus it does have a nice but hard to describe smell to it! This product costs £2.69 for a 8.4ml pot. You can purchase this lip balm in most stores like boots or superdrug but here is a link that Glossybox has recommended because they are doing a 3 for 2 offer on all carmex. products http://www.graftonsbeauty.co.uk/lipbalmsandsalves/product-carm/carmex-original-lip-balm-pot-7-5g/index.html

Youtube video!



Hello everyone, I hope your all okay?

This is just going to be a quick post today. I have recently uploaded a post about my everyday makeup, if you havent seen it already ill leave a link to it at the end. I have been wanting to make Youtube videos for ages! But I have never been confident enough to make one! In my free time I am always watching beauty videos, I love them! I thought that I would pluck up the courage to start making videos. I must say I felt so weird talking to a camera but at the same time I really enjoyed it! So from now on ill be making videos on Youtube and writing my blog!
I hope you guys enjoy my videos!! 




Thankyou for reading everyone, It means so much to me! 
Love from Catherine xox
