Septemper Makeup Look

This month I've really been embracing the change of weather, and of course makeup to follow suit.
I'm not a person to wear make up every day but when I do I try not to wear the same thing every day. I don't spend much on make up either so I just make the most of whatever's rattling in my box.

My favourite look is one with eyeliner with I haven't worn in a while and won't wear if im doing natural makeup, teamed with a berry lip.

To start I use toner to remove any dirt, and conceal using the Collection concealer in 001 and cover using Rimmel Better Skin Foundation.  I have quite rosey yet pale skin so I use bronzer to contour and ad warmth. Then fill in my eyebrows using the Collection Brow kit (2.99- bargain!) And then use the light shade over my lids. Eyeliner is next followed by lipstick (alway teamed with a neutral eye) in Revlon's Black Cherry. I've always struggled putting dark colours on so I learned to use a firm thin brush and the lipstick to line my lips and fill inwards with he brush too. Then put on the stick as normal. I hope you like the look!

Ps. I thought I'd try out a new syle for me with this High neck jumper from newlook. I'm telling myself if you like it wear it!!!

Take a step back.

Life can sometimes be a little hectic and can get on top of you. Sometimes you just need to take a moment and not stress about the little things.  For me unsuccessfully searching for jobs was getting me down. Knowing this I decided to give it all to God. I know that he has my life in His hands and we are not designed to worry. Wether you have a relationship with God or not, know that you are loved and that worrying about the little details will not change thay they may or may not happen. So does it really make sense to over think things?

Appreciate life's little beauties, the people around you (who need you as much as you need them) and be amazed by faultless creation. Most importantly love who you are ♡

Autumn's Almost Here.

Today it really sunk in that autumn is here. The weather was warm enough to venture out the house without a coat. But this evening, you can see by the photo that is was sunny but a little chilly.


So at the moment I've been looking for full time work as I haven't decided whether to go to uni or not. Also as we're moving near Porthcawl we set off and started searching, (me and my sister that is) whilst enjoying an ice and lemonade at the Seafront hotel in the process.

This is Hannah on the right :)

The weather was so beautiful and with a view to match I had a great morning.


This week me and my sisters are looking after our friends puppies so we had to visit today to sort it all. The puppies have grown so much! I'm determined to feature them in a post in the next two weeks that we're caring for them. But my favorite part of the day was visiting The Body Shop and I actually bought something,  for the first time ever there!!! Yes that's true I've never purchased anything from the body shop. But there 30 percent off on three items and 40 percent off when you get four seemed to good to be true! Yet it was and I caved. This is what I got;

p.s I love that the bags are good for the environment!

I know many people hate this scent but I love it. It's quite strong so should last all through work.



This second one I'm a little worried about, I have oily skin and have been using biore charcoal face wash which has been super and my pores have shrunk. But moisturiser makes my face greasy *sad face*. This serum claims to moisturise skin whilst helping combat oily skin. Lets hope it works!  Anyone tried it and knows it's results??? Let me know in the comments or on twitter ♡♡♡




Lots of love,
Bethany

Stop Split Ends

Want to prevent more split ends appearing? But don't want to keep buying products that you're not even sure will work. Take the natural root and plait. Plaits are a proven way to stop split ends occurring as as the follicles aren't moving around, getting tugged or destroyed by heat and brushing. Just plait your hair before bed and wake up with soft and beach worthy waved hair.

Waves with no heat or damage. 
Love your hair guys

DIY; wrapping paper

Have any birthdays or celebrations coming up and you've realised you haven't got wrapping paper? Or want a new alternative. Why not cellotape magaxine pages together and use that to wrap? It makes it personal whilst recycling and making you the designer for a brief moment.  Plus is looks super cute!
