Holiday-Spain!!!

ISo we have been in Spain for the last 10 days. And it has been so refreshing, and is a well needed brake. I havent worn foundation once to give my skin a bit of a break too. The weather is gorgeous, there is good food, a pool to relax by and an amazing amount of tat to big ;) so overall it's been a very good chilled holiday. 

Id say that is a pretty good view... :) 

3 main obsessions

Currently i have three major obsessions, which include: miniature dachshunds, all things bohemian and clean eating. I feel like these things are going stick around for a very very long time. 

We are planning on getting a dog when we move into our new house(eventually) And I am ever so excited and desperately want a miniature dachshund! They are just the cutest little pooches EVER... Where the bohemian craze comes into to play though, I have always loved the patterns and colours that are worn and the jewerelly is just magical and so mystical. See I have always been a bit of a hippy girl at heart :)

But finally I am trying ever so hard to stick to eating clean and getting healthier, so I start to feel more alive every day. It's coming on slowly with a few slip ups here and there, but I'm taking every day as it comes and not worrying if I do slip up now and then. Anyway happy Monday all

Wholemeal blueberry breakfast muffin

 

This last week has been soooo healthy. I've been drinking a hell of a lot of water and just generally eating really well. So I thought I'd share with you my wholemeal blueberry breakfast muffins. I found a recipe but had to tweak it as I couldn't find any coconut flour, so added wholemeal flour instead and they smell delicious! The recipe is below, enjoy!

3 eggs

1 banana

1 tbsp coconut oil

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp vanilla extract

1 cup blueberries

1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda

8 tbsp wholemeal flour

1 tbsp Greek yoghurt

Yummy breakfast!

Getting healthy

This is the week I start to eat more healthy. At the moment i have been eating way to much sugar and just general rubbish food, which is making me feel like a hot air balloon that's about to take off! I will be drinking much, much, much more water (mainly with lemon in, because i love the taste) and eating more fruit through out the day. Also I usually cut out a lot of white carbs, because it makes me tired and its hard to make it through the day. I have never ever ever been one for crash dieting or an sort of extreme dieting, I like to do it the old fashion way. Keep to a balanced and healthy lifestyle, not over eating and exercising the right amount. Not only do I want to feel better about myself everyday, but my sister actually gets married on Saturday so i want to feel my best. (I mean i know it's a week away but it's a start!!!)

My first makeover

So a few weeks back, I did my first ever makeover! Woohoo (Apologies for the bad lighting) This particular makeover was on my sister, for the second part of my course. They basically just throw you in at the deep end, and ask you to go for it. But I guess in many ways that's a good thing, because you can then understand how you can change different aspects of the face etc... The course didn't ask me to do anything, but the basics, because it is the first one we do. So here it is a good ol' first try, I don't think I did to badly, i hope ;)

The box of course work

Yesterday it was time to dig out and open up my box of course work. Everything had to be packed away, since we are living at my mums house for a few weeks while we move. It feels like it has been a long time coming really, but it's time to kick start my new career back into action. I have a couple of videos to watch and a few books to read on corrections and hiding blemishes. So here we go again until we actually have to move for good :) exciting!

Lazy Sundays!

A Short and sweet post.... On Sundays I do love not wearing any makeup at all. After a long week at work wearing makeup, I quite like to keep my face as free as possible. I may put on some primer and a teeny weeny bit of concealer here and there. But general I love to keep my face fresh on a Sunday ;)

Moving fast!

Mummy's beautiful garden :)

We have been so busy sorting house stuff this last month, that I have had no time to post a single thing on here. Not gonna lie I do regret it. But we have now moved from our house to my mums, so we are little bit closer now to getting our new home!!! 

I will definetly be posting more now though, and hopefully start getting on with my makeup :)

Speak soon... 

WERE MOVING!

Last Monday we put our super cute little house on the market, and yesterday we got an offer which we took! (WOW that was fast). So everything is a little crazy at the moment, We have decided to move into my mums house for a few months to save a bit more cash, for our brand spanking new pad :P It is going to be a little strange living with my mum again, i can tell you that! 
This is going to our second house together when we eventually find something. I mean something comes about that you like and*click* its gone in seconds, it is so frustrating. But all in all, we are looking forward to having a garden and more space,(and a little puppy-shhhhh. OH i am excited for that). 
Hopefully once we are settled into a new house, all the makeup bizz will have a bit of a kick start, of course i will keep everyone updated.

Happy Hump Day :)

ELF- stippling Brush

A couple of week ago i purchased the elf stippling brush. I am super impressed with it. It has synthetic bristles but they are extremely soft and bouncy. It uses every bit of foundation on the brush, and stipples over the skin with great ease, leaving you with a flawless look. One of the best parts i believe, is that you are able to layer product so easily, anything from a sheer to heavy look. But really the best, BEST part is that this fantastic brush comes out at just £3.95...here
