Small Autumn Primark Haul

I did a tiny little bit of shopping in Primark the week, even though I went in with the mind set of buying lots of things I didn't because it was crazy and I just wanted to get out! The things I did pick up however have filled up that little bit of extra space in my wardrobe! 

The first place I went to was the shoe department, for some new wide foot flat pumps as mine are on the verge of collapsing! Primark have the cheapest ones compared to anywhere else in the world and even though they don't last very long, they are very very comfy!

I then picked up some more nails and if you saw this post, then you will know that I loved the first packet I got and it was a no-brainer that I would be picking up some more. This time the patterned ones didn't appeal to me and instead I went with the plain coloured ones! 

Like I said, Primark was very busy and so I decided not to spend so much time looking around the busy areas and instead just picked up two things for myself. The first thing on the left is one of their basic t-shirts that has a lovely spotty pattern on, along with long sleeves so perfect for this time of year! The other buy was a patterned shirt, not only is the pattern very elegant and nice but the shirt also has a peplum feature and looks surprisingly flattering on me!

No doubt I will be going back to Primark soon to stock up on jumpers and boots!

Fashion Fair Gold| Review

Today, I am reviewing some exciting things from Fashion Fair, they contacted me recently asking if I would like to work with them and of course I said! So, today I will talk to you about some of their products and you will also be seeing some more posts in collab with them very soon so do keep your eye out!

Golden Chestnut Eye shadow - This is an oil free shadow, so for those of you like me who use primers forget them because you don't need one! I didn't use one in this picture above and it lasted all day on my face and I had two events on the same day, the formula of these are super creamy and very easy to apply and blend out. I used the gold colour as my main eyelid colour as well as putting some in the crease and it looked amazing! 

Sam Fine Supreme Lip Gloss- Canary Diamond - This lip gloss is a beaut and if you love wearing gloss then this is one for your collection! This very transparent gold colour looks great on its own and on the top of other colours such as red and you will be really sparkly! This lip gloss is also not very sticky and doesn't create that glue like feeling that many glosses do. 

Have you tried anything from FashionFair?

Make-up Organisation| Tips and Tricks

Before September came around I had to make sure that I gutted and cleaned every inch of my room - most importantly my makeup area. dun dun dun... but after plucking up the courage to do it I spent an entire Sunday morning tidying up the nooks and crannies of my makeup 'area'. Thought I would document my time and show you how I managed to do it all within a few hours.
I don't have the biggest makeup collection, but what I do have to doubles of everything and frankly things that I haven't worn in a really really long time.

I have the Ikea Chest Drawer thing, it has three draws and then this top section as well. In the first draw i keep all my makeup and skincare and then the top holds all my clear storage that looks really pretty. I am always getting things out to use and then am far too lazy to then put them back in the right place and then it leads to having everything everywhere and no room to breathe. 

The first thing I did was empty all my makeup and skincare bits on to the floor and sort them into piles of stuff. Hiding in the corner is the two pots of my very dirty makeup brushes, along with lips at the top right, then face, cheeks, eye shadow, eyes and then skin. This made it a whole lot easier to see what I own and to start the next stage. This is the 'Clean and Get Rid Of Stage' here you need to seriously decide what is worth keeping that you will carry on using and the things that you haven't touched or can't remember about and bin those. I will admit that if you are a beauty lover like me, you tend to hold on to things because of the price, or the memories that come with it. But I was being really brutal this time!

Eventually, I managed to sort through everything and have my breakfast whilst doing so.The end result made me feel proud and very pleased with myself. The draw is now in different sections instead of all jumbled up. In the top left long box we have skincare, below that in the tiny box is full of 'more lip produtcs'.. In the two bigger boxes I decided to have a box full of eyes and various face products and then the other has all my base products and cheek products. Then a body butter, deodorant can, makeup bag, headphones and brushes (which should really be clean now!). 

On top I managed to nicely organise my storage so that all my lipsticks/glosses/balms are together in height ish order. I have a thing about things that need to look right. All my nail polishes are sorted by brand (spy all the barrym gelly's!) and then the draws have the smaller eye shadow palettes in along with some perfume and nail care essentials that I need to use more.

Hope you enjoyed this different type of post!
