Christmas crackers
As a student I dont have that mich money and have a large family and a lot of friends so its hard and very expensive to buy for all them so heres a few tips depending on hwo close you are to the people your getting presents for and your budget some could be used as stocking fillers or just the main present.
firstly I got this pack of lipglosses which I thought were really beautiful and so usefull for a lot of people due to the fact it contains a large selection of different colours which would match a lot of skin tones.
£4.99 from superdrug
secondly I got this gorgeous neautrol golden eye palete which I thought was amazing value for money considering you get four decent sized baked eyeshaddows, a glitter gold eyeliner and plain black mascara. Additionally theres a step by step guide and in instructions telling you how to create the desired look for the festive season.
also from superdrug for £4.99
Then i got some cute and cosy slipper socks with grip on the bottom, its always nice to recieve socks at christmas but not the plain boring ones, fluffy warm patterned socks to keep your toes warm at winter!
£5.99 from boots
and the last one for the girls i picked up this sunkissed set from body care because I thought it was good value for money and would be good for somebody starting out with makeup or wanting to just branch out and experiment with a lot of different brands.
£3.99
Now heres one for the boys, because believe or not they like to scrub up and pamper themself just as much as we do if not even more. Even if they dont say so, heres one I purchased for my uncle because its a well known brand and smells AMAZING..

Current love
How gorgeous are these Kurt Geiger Hamilton Grey heels, oh myyyyy they are beautiful but not with the £85.00 price tag(may be cheap for KG but not for a 16 year old). Guess these are another addition to my christmas list for santa!

Thought i'd just share with you what I purchased when I took a trip down to boots.
Sheer moisture foundation in shade light, havn't tried it yet so im there isnt much of a review I can give you.
Sorry for the poor photo but the lighting was awful, the last nail polish is just a glittery top coat.
Sheer moisture foundation in shade light, havn't tried it yet so im there isnt much of a review I can give you.
Blush and Glow blusher in strawberry swirl, you can use just the blush or the highlighter or swirl them togethether for a perfect glow to the cheeks.
& When I purchased two products for 17 I got a free party nail kit..
Then I just got this nude lipstick, gloss and eyeshaddow duo as it was 3 items for £5.OO at natural collection.

quick fix
since im redecorating my room i've had to temporary place all my makeup in shoe boxes, so heres just a quick snap of one of my boxes on how I done it!
November faves
here are my current loves of this month
These sunkissed pearls in natural glow have added to my barely there makeup look, they just give the cheeks a glow and shine of colour without looking like you packed it on
What are your monthly faves?
L'oreal true match foundation is the foundation i've been wearing all month, its gives me such a duey glow which is what I need in the winter with the cold and harsh weather.
Avon duo in natural has been my holy grail this month, i've found myself going for a neautral eye and bare minimum make up this month just to look naturally flawless.
Mascara my lancome in absolute black, give lashes enough defenition and length without looking clumpy or flakey.
Next cashmere body butter smells amazing and leaves the skin feeling smooth and fresh, although it contains the smallest flakes of shimmer so I mainly use it when i'm going to events and occasions because it gives the skin a sheen look and makes you glow.
What are your monthly faves?

christmas wish list
With christmas creeping around the corner I've been having to think a lot about what I would love for christmas and thought i'd share my makeup, beauty and fashion cravings with you all.
Top of my list is..
The beautiful Michael Kors very hollywood perfume, this is one of my 'go to' perfumes for all seasons and such a unique scent, it isn't too over powering but still strong enough to smell. It averages for around £35.00 for 30ml in UK so not that expensive compared to some other perfumes.
Second on my wish list to santa is the dior face shimmer in ambre diamond, I've seen many cbloggers and youtubers with this product and it just looks like it gives such a flawless finish on the skin and works with any complexion, but costs £32.00.
Next is my current lush crush, the Mr frost knot wrap gift set looks SO addorable as little present, I would love oppening this up on crimbo day. Its such a festive yet realistic and usefull thing which I would actually use because theres nothing worse than getting loads of bath sets that just stick in a cupboard. Perfect for anybody on a budget as its around £10.00
I've hinted more than enough for this bag because its so up my street, its classic and vintage with an current feel to it with the brown and black colour blocking, Im in love and its so practical for me to use at collage, if anybody's interested its from www.boohoo.com an online website that has some beautiful pieces.
These black platform heeled boots from topshop are just show stopping and such a statement peice. One of the main presents on my wish list and I guess i'll just have to keen on wishing with the £140.00 price tag, although that may not be expensive compared to most designers it is for topshop.
