The Beauty Blogger Tag


I was tagged over the weekend by Vicki to do this Beauty Blogger Tag! I've not done a tag for a while, so this is perfect to kick of a new week with! There are no rules to this, other than to answer the questions, so here it goes!


What's your fave perfume & what do you think it says about you?
I currently love 'Gold' from Primark, which they sadly seem to have stopped doing! I think it shows that I like strong perfumes

Contour or Strobe?
Neither! I've not tried them!

What's your night-time skincare routine?
I take off my makeup with micellar water, and then leave it! I sometime moisturize after, but I have naturally oily skin! 

Fave lip colour shade?
Dark purple!

Fave eyeshadow palette?
My Galaxy Chic Palette!!


What's your #1 makeup tip?
Wear what you want! You're wearing it for yourself and no-one else!

What's your fave store for cosmetics?
I'm obsessed with BH Cosmetics, which is an American based cosmetic store online

What's a high-end makeup item you'd love to own?
Anything by MAC!

Which celeb do you feel nails it, makeup wise?
I think the Kardashians (please don't hurt me) always look amazing, and so does Melissa McCarthy!

You have an hour to pack for a surprise weekend. What all rounder palette and lipstick would you choose to take with you?
I would grab my Forever Nude palette from BH Cosmetics, as it has 6 eyeshadows, 2 blushers, 2 lipsticks and a highlighter all in one! It's a great travel kit!



And now I'm tagging Christina, Lisa and Sarah to answer these questions - but I also tag all my readers to do it too! What would your answers to these questions be? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

Picture Perfect #4


Having had a pretty awesome week off work, and a pretty productive week with my blog updating and my anniversary with Cameron, I decided it was time for another little 'life lately' post. I stopped doing my monthly overview posts as I felt they were getting too long winded, but I still want to share some snaps of my life with you now and then.

Here are some snap shots of my life and the things I've been up to, since the end of April! Hope you enjoy this pretty pic heavy post!

I got really into my bullet journal this month!

LOVE this Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick

Bought myself a BB8 *geek screaming*

How rad does my cheese counter look at work look?? 

Cleaned my makeup brushes and they're super fluffy!

Had a lovely cake come through my letterbox...

Went to see X-Men Apocalypse and it was awesome!
What have you been up to lately and how often do to take pictures for memories? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

Monthly Favourites #14 - May

It's that time of the month where I look back and share some of my fave things with you! Ranging from songs, TV and movies, to whatever lies in the random section!

Song
I am still obsessed with Fifth Harmony, and their new album 7/27 came out on Friday and it's AMAZING. This song is their newest single after Work From Home, and it's another one that I love! 



Picture
My favourite picture from this month has to be this one of my Bullet Journal handwriting page! I loved trying to do some that I'd seen online, as well as some of my own! It's just a nice colourful page in the journal and I'm so happy that I started bujo-ing!



TV Show
I have been meaning to watch the Flash since it came out after Arrow allowed it to do a spinoff - and I finally got round to it this month! Not quite finished the first season yet, but it's amazing and Grant Gustin is amazing!




Movie
Having watched the about two trailers this year, I'd forgot this was coming out until I looked on our local cinema listing! I went to see it a few days after it was released, and I loved it!! The fight scenes were amazing, the CGI was incredible and I dread to think of the budget!! I was dubious about Sophie Turner being Jean Grey, but she was pretty awesome. Loved the movie!



Random Section
So for the random section, I've gone with this image of my Bakers Day cake that the company kindly sent me! I loved that I could personalise it with an image of my own - plus it tasted bloody lovely! Definitely recommend these!



Hope you enjoyed these faves for May! What have you loved this month from each category? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe!
