Finally something that lives up to its name! The reason behind this purchase was just that I love a bit of eyeliner but I needed a new one. Since I'd heard so much about loreals super liner from youtubers like ShirleyBEniang and UglyFaceOfBeauty I decided to give it a try. I could do with a bit more practice with my wings though...
So what makes this eyeliner a winner to me? Well obviously I like a precise line but also due to my eyeshape I'm not a huge fan of a thick line! So I need a lot of control with the application and the tip gives me all the control I want. Which gives me the thin line I like, which means it lives up to its name even more because its called super liner 'ultra precision'.
Its a drugstore product so I can pick myn up for £6.49 at my local boots which for some can be seen as a little pricey but I geuss I'm a sucker on spending money on products that work so well for me! I have myn just in black but I did originally want it in carbon gloss as thats what most people used, but knowing my luck they didn't have it.
So by any chance are you looking for a new eyeliner or just wanna try a different one?..super liners got my vote of recommendation. Don't hesitate to leave any feedback or un-answered questions below!

a little something
I some times find myself lost, I struggle to fit in or keep up with the so called 'latest trends'. Then I remember that we aren't made to fit in, we don't have to follow any kind of trends instead we can make them.
Theres a whole world out there, so whenever you feel your losing yourself. Its actually okay because that missing part of you is out there and you'll find it when your ready. Whether it takes you two minutes or ten years just make the most of every second.
Tresure your past, always live in the moment but when your in doubt theres a tomorrow. Regret isn't a bad thing either it simply means you have learnt from a previous decision and are willing live with it. Never change something about yourself your happy with, people are obviously are intitled to an opinion but they aren't etitled to control you.
If you can't mange all of this thats actually okay to because we're only human. Sometimes there isn't just a simple answer or quick solution to life. Sometimes we just have to get on with it and hope for the best.

hair products haul!
I had my hair cut around a week into the new year and I also had lowlights done which was fun because I'd never actually coloured my hair before so it made a nice change! Anyway obviously like any girl I like to use heat on my hair for styling but I always like to try and keep split ends away for as long possible..which is always a challenge for me. I've always had long hair but over the past year its gotten shorter where it hasn't grown due to straightening it. So I thought some new products would just help keep my hair a little more healthy.
Heres what I brought and the reasons why...
Heres what I brought and the reasons why...
- Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment - I purchased this because I love the Lee Stafford Poker Straight leave in conditioner and wanted to repurchase it but I was limited at my local boots so this was the only one they had. So I decided to give it a go as I love my leave in conditioners.
- Lee stafford Poker Straight Dehumidifer Spray - I like to straighten my hair but suffer from frizzyness so I decided to try out this spray to help keep my hair straight!
- Treseme Split Remedy Sealing Serum - To help try keep split ends away I decided to try out tresemes new range so I picked up this serum to see if it would do any good.
- Treseme Split Remedy Split Mend Intense Recovery Masque - Another product from Tresemes newish range, I thought I'd see what the leave in conditioner was like.
- Argan Oil Hair Treatment - Brought this after my hair dresser used morrocan oil on my hair not willing to pay their price I decided to try out what the drug store had to offer for around half the price!
- Aussie Dual Personality for Straightening Heat Protection - No such thing as to much heat protection I say and this spray is made for straightening so as a fan of aussie I decided to try it!
- Since purchasing this products I have actually stopped straightening my hair but its only been in the past week so I have been using these products for around a month otherwise. My decision to stop straightening my hair was a couple of reasons like to grow it back and just to embrace my natural hair and realise that it isn't even that bad!
- So if you are interested in any of these products, don't hesitate to comment below and I shall give a breif review of the product for you. All the products have been linked to the boots website as that was where I purchased them from so go ahead and click on the link for more information and prices on the products!
- As always thank you for reading!

new jewellery
In the past couple of months I've wanted to express more of my style by finding some key peices for my wardrobe, but I wanted the peices to be unique to me instead of going and buying the same item that everyone I know has. So I'm going to start wearing clothes that reflect my personality instead of following the so called 'fashion' everyone at my school likes because lets face it their all wearing the same thing in different colours and patterns.
So a big thing I've got into is jewellery because its a simple way to personalise a outfit and make it more unique to you. I've always been a bit of a diaster about picking jewellery though. I'm always wearing earrings but their just plain studs from accessorize. Hopefully I got it right this time..so I'm happy that as my jewellery collection grows I can share it with everyone. I've currently been looking at jewellery from all places like topshop, river island, fashionology, regal rose and urban outfitters.
So to kickstart my collection I've picked two items from urban outfitters. First is a necklace which I got for half price in the sale for £14. Its a small pocket watch in silver. I really like the detail to it and the way it almost feels as if it has a story. I was originally going to buy it in gold but of course it had sold out by the time I went to order.
The second item is a very simple pair of studs which were £6 (available in white, blue or black). They aren't a convincing vintage but their the classic studs I've had my eye out for. Luckily no one I know has them either!
So these are my two very simple peices that I picked out from urban outfitters online, I would love to know what you think? Did I do a good job at choosing the jewellery after all? Or just any general questions..feel free to leave a comment below I'd be happy to read any feedback!

nivea visage rich moisturising day cream review
I purchased this product simply hoping it would become a new favourite! I've been on the hunt for a everyday face cream for a while and decided on this one.
I have normal to dry skin and the cream is for people with dry to sensative skin, the cream also has SPF 15. It has natural almond oil and calendula extract which claims to give your skin the intensive moisture it needs to support its natural balance. It also states that SPF 15 and extra UVA filters help to protect your skin from environmental influences and premature skin ageing.
Now that all sounds a bit serious to me but what I like about this cream is the smell isn't a strong perfume, the texture has a smooth consistency which always leaves my skin soft to touch.. The price is affordable, I picked myn up for £4.19 at my local boots. It doesn't ever cause my skin to break out either which is great and it only takes around 5 to 10 minutes to sink in (depending how much is applied) which I think is average for most creams. I haven't had any dry skin since switching to this cream so it must be helping in that area to.
I would find myself recommending this cream to others with dry or sensative skin and if not I'd say go and check out the other versions of this cream such as the oil free, light moisturising or even the tinted version. So if the one I'm using isn't suited to your skin its easy to find one that is. I can't really fault this product so it will definately be getting a repurchase from me.
Have any more queries on this product? dont hesitate to leave a comment below and I'll do my best to answer it. Any general feedback on this review is very appreciated, did I miss anything out? comment and tell me!
