May Favorites!

Make-up Maybelline Colossal Go Extreme Mascara Aaaaaaamazing! Such a good product, I can't even.. just read my review here. So good. 10/10 would recommend over other mascaras. Hair Aussie Miracle Shine Shampoo My hair and scalp have been a bit dry lately, so I switched shampoos and used the Aussie Miracle Shine shampoo to restore some kind of moisture to my hair. I know I wrote that it had made my hair greasy...

This month's purchases - May!

I am trying not to spend so much now that i've finished university and am pretty much not doing anything since  These were some of the major purchases that I made this month. I always have to have a reason when buying certain things: I told myself not to buy anymore nail polishes, but hey these are essentials right? I've been after these Nikes for ages and they were sold out when I wanted them! My...

Getting the perfect hair, skin and nails: week 1

I recently purchased a pack of 90 Perfectil tablets, as well as some nail care products. I am hoping that when my graduation comes round, (July 17th) my hair will be super long again, and my nails will be strong and healthy. I am going to keep eating the same food as I always have done, maybe chuck in an egg a day for extra protein.  Perfectil tablets are designed to help maintain and nourish great looking skin,...

Sleek face form palette

 I've been looking for a contour palette for awhile now, and I had my eyes set on the Sleek contour palette but I couldn't find it in Superdrug or Boots, so I got the face form palette instead, which has a blush added, unlike the contour palette which only has the contour powder and highlighter. I am so happy that I did. The palette costs £9.99, which is cheap for three products!  The packaging is very...

It's World Baking Day!

I usually always bake on Sunday, and this Sunday happens to be World Baking Day. Today I baked for my family. My mom bought me some bundt cake tins so I put them to use and made a pandan chiffon cake, one of our favourite cakes. A chiffon cake is a very light textured cake, with hardly any crumbs. Pandan is a tropical plant found in Asia, and the flavour and smell is very similar to coconut. I made a coconut buttercream...

Today I...

I had a very rubbish night of sleep, waking up around 3ish, checking Instagram because I was wide-awake, and my sister messages me telling me to go to sleep. She must have been checking Instagram too to see that I was awake and liking things! (She lives in Australia) Anyway, I had to be at work for 11am so I tried my best to fall back to sleep but it wasn't working well. I woke up to blue skies and hardly any...

Maybelline The Collosal Go Extreme Mascara review

This mascara is my new favourite mascara in the whole wide world. I've been using Mac's Opulash mascara which is very good but way too expensive for a mascara (I got it as a gift!) I got the Go Extreme mascara while it was on offer at Superdrug, I also got the waterproof version but I haven't tested that one out yet. Maybelline The Collosal Go Extreme, £6.99 This mascara wand is a bit different, they claim "Our...

I love Sundays!

Sundays are made for reading magazines, painting nails, baking sweet treats and dog cuddles. I bought the latest issues of Glamour, Cosmopolitan & Company magazine mainly because they're the June issue, which is my birthday month! And because I didn't buy any magazines last month... I love the summer editions of magazines. I've been craving these ever since my trip to Malaysia last September, where I had them...

I finished my dissertation!

Hello everyone! I'm back! I am so done with university. I have been working on my dissertation and juggling my job, so a lot of things have been put on hold. Anyway, after I handed in my dissertation, Beau and I walked along the Thames, doing some sightseeing stuff, even though we've already seen the sights before. It was a really nice sunny day despite being stuck behind a lot of tourists. Walking along the Thames...
