Come Along With Me | A Day in London...♡

Hello Everyone!

Welcome back to my blog, i recently went for a trip to London and visited Covent Garden & Oxford St so i thought i would share my visit with you...
I hope you enjoy reading tonights blog post and feel free to comment I hope you have a lovely evening...

So the first place we went was Oxford Street as me and my friend both had money to spend and something we wanted to buy so Oxford St is the perfect place for it (apart from how busy it gets!!). The first thing i bought was this cup from Urban Outfitters, i really liked it and it was also in the sale as well, bonus!





I then took a trip to Selfridges as i wanted to go to the Nars & Mac counters, i picked up a couple of things from Mac and foundation testers from Esteé Lauder & Nars! I have tried Estée Lauder and it is an incredible foundation, as i was unhappy with my Mac Studio Fix so i was on the search and i'm really impressed by it. I bought Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft + Gentle and Mac Lipstick in Plumful. I also bought some earrings from River Island too!







I then went to Covent Garden for food in Shake Shack which was just as amazing as it looks! I really recommend it, the food was incredible & the service was great! It was also reasonably priced too and it was so nice to sit outside in the sun with music playing. We also went for Snog after wards which is a frozen yogurt place and that was lush! We then came across a American Candy store next door to Snog (so tempting) and i bought the Birthday Cake M&M's, i had seen them for so long on You Tube etc and never bought them but i was so dissapointed! They were gross!! I then came across an Urban Decay, and my Nars concealer was running out so as i had seen Lily Pebbles absoloutely love the naked concealer, i tried that one out! So far i'm so impressed and i can't even notice much of a difference between the nars one and it's £5 more! 















So that's everything for this weeks blog post, i hope you enjoy and i will see you next week with another post! Hope you have a lovely Sunday evening...

What's In My Make Up Bag...♡ featuring Nars, Mac & Maybelline





Welcome back to my blog and HAPPY EASTER!


I've decided to change my number of blog posts to 2 a week, with uploading one every Wednesday and Sunday as i've been so busy this half term that i'm struggling to be able to put time and effort fully, into my blog posts and i don't want to do 3 a week and for them to look rushed and boring! So this weeks blog post is what's in my make up bag as i haven't done of these before but i love having a nose to see what other people keep in their make up bags so i hope you all enjoy and let me know your thoughts in the comments below.. 

To begin with the makeup bag i use is the Zoella Beauty "Just Say Yes" make up bag which i love because it looks so pretty and it's the perfect size for a make up bag for me as i do have a Ted Baker one but it's way too big to keep make up in, so i use it for travelling instead and the Zoella one doesn't take up a lot of room in my bag too! So let's begin with the actual contents of  my make up bag...


I always bring this along with me in my bag because i use it to help freshen up my make up if i'm out for a long duration throughout the day and want it to last all day.



I always carry this around with me as it's my favourite lip balm ever and you never know when you're going to need this throughout the day, if you suddenly get sore lips! #LifeSaver


 Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer

I always keep my concealer with me incase i get any redness throughout the day which i can cover up, or if any blemishes start to become more visible throughout the day. 



 Mac Studio Fix Powder 

I keep a powder on me because if it's a hot day or i'm generally just becoming oily in some areas, i can just touch up with a bit of powder and a small Real Techniques Setting Brush.


 Nars Laguna Bronzer & Soap and Glory Solar Powder


I keep these 2 bronzers on me incase i need a little bit more bronze throughout the day (which is very rare because my make up lasts me all day anyway) but i still like to carry it out around as i would cry without bronzer lol. 
 Zoeva 221 Luxe Soft Crease Brush 

I always carry this brush around with me because it's a life saver and the best blending brush ever!


Benefit Brow Zings Brow Kit

I keep this in my make up bag because who wouldn't be able to go without a brow product?!



Zoeva 106 Powder Brush (picture of this with the powder above^)


I have this brush in my make up bag because it's really small and easily fits in my make up bag and i use it for any powder touch ups. 


Zoeva 110 Face Shape Brush 


I use this brush to do my concealer, so for any concealer touch ups and to smooth anything on my face out.  




Real Techniques Setting Brush & Blusher Brush


I use the setting brush to touch up the powder in my T-Zone and under eyes. I use the blusher brush for any bronzer i want to add.

AND that's everything for what's in my make up bag! I hope you enjoyed looking inside my make up bag and let me know what sort of things you have in your make up bag.. I hope you have a wonderful easter! I will see you next Wednesday with another blog post!
