The Eyeliner of My Dreams

Hey everyone! I'm back again, really getting into blogging!

This post is about something I got for Christmas and I literally cannot stop using it! It has become my go to everyday!

It is the Inglot AMC Gel Eyeliner and the Inglot 31T eyeliner brush! I cannot explain how much I have fallen in love with these!



I had heard so many people raving about the product I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I got the liner in the shade 77(black). The consistency is amazing, it just glides across the skin seamlessly. 




The brush is a small angled liner brush (31T), it makes the application so easy. I have been practising for ages to get the perfect winged liner and i always found it so hard, but this brush does the work for you. Its so precise, it keeps the line perfect.

The liner was €15, and the brush was €14 and worth every cent. I couldn't recommend these enough! I'm only raging it took me till now to get my hands on them:P

Till next time xx

A New Find From Penneys

Hey guys:) Welcome back! I've a post on a great little buy from Penneys/Primark.

It's this little facial brush I bought the other week. I think it was around €3/€4, it wasn't very expensive. I thought I'd give it a go and see would it give my face a good clean, but I really didn't like it! I found it quite awkward to use on my skin. 

But today I had a brainwave and decided to use it for cleaning my makeup brushes! I had seen people use special mits and gloves for cleaning them and this had the same looking texture so I said it try it out. 

And I LOVE it! My brushes have never been so clean. I used to use a sponge but I feel this really loosens and product stuck to the brushes and lifts it straight off. 
This is the facial brush:


It's nice and small and I just put it into the palm of my hand and use Johnsons 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner to cleanse.

 
I applied the shampoo onto the facial brush, ran my makeup brush under the tap and then swirled to my hearts content!! I continued to rinse and swirl until the brushes were all sparkling! 

Cleaning my brushes was always a dreaded job but this makes it so quick and easy that I don't think I'll winge (as much!!!:P) from now on!!! 

Hope you like this little post!

 Until next time xx

My Goals For 2016

Hey everyone! Long time no chat. I'm back today with a 2016 goals post. 

I decided to change my blog name and redesigned it as part of my new year new start thing I'm trying out!! I have to say I'm really happy with it and feel it's very me! 

I'm setting myself a few tough goals this year to try and push myself. 

1. Lose weight.
This is a big one for me. I've been struggling with my weight the last few months, and I recently rejoined slimming world and I've lost half a stone so far! Now id say I've put it back on over the Christmas, but I've a holiday booked for the end of February and that's my aim. I want to be down a stone by then and I'll be delighted. And then I just have to maintain for the year!

2. Get Fit
This is one I'll struggle with as I work indoors all day that when I come home I'm wrecked from the heat of work and standing all day that I just pan out on the couch for the evening!! So I'm going to try and push myself and become more active and increase my fitness level. It's important for my health and for my mind aswell as its not good to be stuck indoors all the time. Even if it's a half hour walk it's better than nothing!!

3. Complete BBG-at least once!!
I attempted BBG(bikini body guide by Kayla itsines) already! I did the 4 weeks pre-training, and weeks 1-5 of the real deal and I was seeing and feeling the difference, but like I said on the last goal, it's the tiredness off work that was killing me! But I'm determined to complete it! So I'm going to get a routine going of the workouts and walks on inbetween days and trying get my energy and fitness levels up!

4. Move out 
This I've wanted for the past 2 years! Both myself and my boyfriend feel we're at that stage in ours life so hopefully this year well be financially able to get a place together.

5. Do A Make-Up Course
Been looking into doing some sort of a part time or evening make-up course for the past few months. I know someone that done the Inglot make-up course and they highly recommended it, so I'm going to look into doing one once I'm back from my holidays:) 

Hopefully I'll be able to say at the end of the year that I completed all of these goals!! 

Hope you enjoyed this little post. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and a happy new year! 

Till next time xx

New Ps Love Brush Range

Hey everyone, welcome back.

It's been a while, but I had nothing exciting to blog about and I didn't want to force a post. 

Today I'm going to let you know about the new Ps Love makeup brushes I got in Penneys the other day.


I was away and typical forgot my brushes, so I went into my nearest Penneys and saw these. They all range from €1.50-€2.50, so I said for that price they will do for the few days!!

Little did I know I'd fall in love! I bought the Kabuki brush, powder/blush brush, contour brush, foundation/concealer brush and the smokey eyeshadow brush. So far I've used them all except the Kabuki, and I must say they are amazing. The hairs on the brushes are really soft and easy to blend products onto the skin. 

The contour brush is the perfect shape to really sculpt out your cheekbones, and with the soft hairs it makes the product so easy to apply. 

The smoky eyeshadow brush is by far my favourite. It is the perfect shape to work the shadows into the crease and it also has a small angled brush to smudge the shadow under the lash line. 

Overall I'd highly recommend these brushes. And for this price, you can't go wrong! I will admit I went back for a second eyeshadow brush!! 

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this post, I'll be back soon. 

Till then xox
