Outfit & Makeup Of The Night

 Hi Guys, so this weekend i went out with my best friend for a girly night out round town and i thought i would share with you what i wore and what i did my makeup like. 

So first of all is this gorgeous outfit that cost around £20!! 

Black Knit Crop Top: Forever 21 £4.75

Basic Knee Length Skirt: Forever 21 £4.75

Strap heels: Primark (around £10)

Lime Green Stud Earings: Primark £1

And that was my outfit i absolutely love that skirt! I also got it in Grey and i'm tempted to get all the other colors of it too. It is such good quality and i am really impressed to say it cost £5!!

And my makeup...

Revlon 24hr Colorstay Foundation

Sleek Contour & Highlight Palette

NARS blush in Deep Throat

Naked Palette 2 - Blackout & Tease

Acessorize palette - Lime green & White

MAC DazzleGlass Lip gloss in Money, Honey to shop

 Ardel Eyelashes - Natural 

I went for a black smokey eye but instead of a white highlight in the inner corner i went for a heavy lime green! I just thought it tied my outfit together and was a bit retro and different to what i normally do. 

And that is my makeup & outfit of Friday night! I hope you enjoyed reading this and i hope it has given you some inspiration for your next night out.

Nail Art Haul: Born Pretty Store

www.bornprettystore.com - Free shipping worldwide

Hi Guys,

So last month i decided to finally try out some nail art stuff from BPS as i see this company being mentioned a lot on blogs & you tube. The products are really affordable and i love that it's free shipping. I got quite various things to try out and i will insert pictures below and my thoughts of the company and what i got. 

First of all i would only order from this website when your not in a rush to get anything. It took exactly a month for my stuff to get here so it's better to order things you'd like to add to your collection rather than you need something now. When my products came everything was in tact and it was packaged really well. Some of the products were the wrong color to what i picked but that's not much of a big deal to me.

Water Decal Stickers - Traditional Chinese Painting
Water Decal Stickers - Beautiful Flower Pattern

I wanted these to do some elegant nail designs and to also try out the water decals.

Stamper & Scraper Set

Stamp Template - Leopard & Lace

Stamp Template - Mustache & Lips

Stamp Template - Patterns 

I haven't tried the stamping tools yet so i can't wait to try these!! 

120pcs, Fruit Fimo Decals

I got these because i thought they looked so fun to use in the summer and i loved the colors of them all.

18 Color Acrylic Powder Set

This had black acrylic powder all over it. They were fine once brushed over.

I got these acrylic powders to practice my 3D art with, but when i tried them tonight they weren't very pigmented and some of them turned white. I will play around with them though to decide whether i would buy more etc... 

400pcs, Fluorescent Rhinestone Stud Set 

I wanted these for my more colorful nail art, and i think they look so edgy and cool! I love that you get the same color in two different styles.

Tinkerbell 3D Nail Decoration

I actually picked the yellow ones of these but the blue colors just as pretty! I cannot wait to use these in a Tinkerbell inspired nail design! 

Nail Glue w/ Brush

I just wanted some nail glue to use for when i'm doing nail art instead of using my NSI glue which i use for my nail enhancements. 

Hello Kitty Embellishments

These i got free with my order! They are really pretty but i don't have anything to use them for so i have given them to my little cousin as a present. I know she will love them more than i would ha ha.

If you would like to order anything of this website i do have a discount code which is CHST10, check back for future nail designs using these products. And if you have recently ordered from this website please feel free to leave a link down below i love looking what other people have purchased.

What can help you through a breakup...

Hi Guys, So if your going through a recent break-up, like me. Or need help with a friend who's going through a break-up then i hope my tips on what have helped me and other people i know help you. 

Buy a notepad and put a list of all the bad things you can think of about that person and then think "do I really deserve to let myself get upset over someone like this?"

Motivational quotes stuck everywhere!! On my mirror I had 'you won't feel like this forever' Next to my bed I had 'pat yourself on the back for getting through another day without him' etc...

Wear nice underwear and clothes!! How you dress can effect how you feel e.g. if you dress in all of your exs clothes your not allowing yourself to get him out of your mind, if you dress in black frumpy clothes your mood is going to be down and your going to feel self conscious. BUT if you put on a pair of your best looking underwear and wear your favorite and most colourful outfit it will make you feel confident, motivational, and brighter.

Take all the photos etc down, this is the first thing I did. The photos, memory box, clothes, video games, teddys everything that I could store away I did straight away!! That way you'll have less reminders of that person especially in a place where you are supposed to feel happier etc.

Delete them from social medias and their number etc. I did this so again you don't have a constant reminder of them and so you can't see anything that will hurt you even more. When you break up with them you want to text them a million times asking why and begging for them to come back. That is the worst thing you can do sadly. I luckily didn't know his number off the top of my head so I wrote it down and gave it to my mum so if I needed something like my clothes back etc eventually I could text him.

If you feel like you have to write to him write him an email but don't send it. Save it to your drafts because you will regret sending it and it will make you feel worse and it will save disappointment when they text back saying 'im sorry, really I am' for the hundredth time!!! (also when your over him you have the satisfaction of deleting the email instead of knowing he will)

Read blog posts like this or watch you tube videos about breakups, it makes you feel better that people are going or have gone through the same thing and are alright at the end of it.

It is okay to think about him/her. They were a big part of your life and you probably did have more good times then bad if they broke up with you without reason. And try and think positive that you had that person in your life for a while. Yes it sucks that it wasn't forever but at least you got to share some good experiences and memories with them. 

And it's normal to cry, but try not to. If you feel yourself beginning to cry shout at yourself say "no im stronger than this, im not letting him hurt me again" it actually works.

Dreams - i non-stop STILL dream about him every night and there not nasty dreams there days out we've already had together, things we had planned in the future, us getting back together. I just would advise you to make your bed and the space around it the tidiest, safe haven with candles and fairy lights. Just make it comfortable and a place you look forward to going to sleep in. Because if you have a messy bedroom it can play on your mood A LOT! because it doesn't just clutter your room it clutters your mind also and your already going through enough. 

Do everything you thought "i won't be able to do without them" if you have a favorite restaurant, shopping mall etc.. go with one of your favorite girlfriends or friends and have a good time. Don't stop doing the things you love just because someone doesn't want to share them with you! 

And lastly keep yourself busy and around people that love you unconditionally and remember that you will and can find happiness elsewhere!!!

TURN YOUR CANT'S INTO CANS

I can't do this - I can do this

I can't smile - I can smile

I can't be happy -I can be happy

This is just things that are helping me through a bad breakup. People will find different things and some of those things won't help you like they did me. But remember that you will feel better and I hope you do soon also!!

Glossy box Review: March 'Beauty Blossom' 2014

So this is what i got in my March 2014 glossy box. It is spring inspired and as they said, what you will need in spring time. You got 3 full sized products which i thought was really good! I think the range of products you got are good and if you would like to know more about my first thought of the products or more about them then please read on..

RRP: £36 for 180ml - mitchellandpeach.com

So this is the first product on the list. It is a Mitchell & Peach body cream. It has English honey, organic cocoa, vitamin B5 & shea butter in. It says it leaves your skin feeling soft and smelling like you've just walked in the English countryside!... Personally the smell reminds me of my nan ha ha i find this with every luxury product though. It does remind me of a English countryside and i can see where there coming from. I will give this a go if i don't like the smell etc, i will probably gift my nan with it.

RRP: £4.49 for 10g - sleekmakeup.com

 This is Sleek makeup pout polish. It is in color 'chocolate kiss' and is a tinted lip balm, it has SPF15, almond oil, shea butter & vitamin E. I have quickly tried this on my lips and it does give a nice natural tint to your lips but it did come off almost instantly! But i will try it again tomorrow. This was also a full size product.

RRP: £12.99 2.35g - bellapierre.co.uk

This is Bellapierre Cosmetics shimmer powder in 'penny' it is a lovely copper shimmer pigment/eye shadow. It says its 100% Mica and is long lasting. It says you can also mix it in with a blush, nail polish or lip gloss to create your own custom makeup. I tried the color on the back of my hand it its an absolutely gorgeous color and looks really pigmented and i cannot wait to use it!! P.s this is also a full size product.

RRP: £47 for 75ml - debenhams.com

These are two sample sized products of the new Juicy Couture Malibu Collection. I love love love that these are in spay bottles as it makes it so much easier and are perfect to keep in your purse on a night out. The one in the orange has passion fruit and jasmine and it smells absolutely amazing!! I would wear this one on a night out its such a glamorous smell. The one in the pink has mandarin and sweet pink sugar. I would wear this in the day time as its a sweeter smell than the other but they both, hands down are gorgeous and you need to go and smell these!!

RRP: £1.49 for 15ml - supermarket or boots etc...

And lastly this is the Dove Hair Therapy Intensive Repair 60 second Treatment shot. I love Dove hair products and can't wait to try out this new products. P.s this is a full size product.

Thanks for reading guys, and i hope you enjoyed this months glossy box as much as i did :)

Everyday Makeup Products

Hi Guys so these are my everyday essentials when doing my makeup whether that be going to college, getting things done or sometimes going for lunches and days out. The makeup is simple and doesn't take much doing at all. I choose between two lipsticks and the colors change depending on my mood and i choose totally different colors depending on the seasons. Obviously it depends where you work or what type of taste you have to change the lipstick, i'm just lucky i love bright lipstick and the career i want to be in is okay with that.

What the products are & why i use them:

Simple clear skin oil balancing moisturizer
So i have been using this moisturizer for more than a year now and it has calmed my oiliness down a lot. I'm not a cream freak and i think there quite boring but this is just simple and it doesn't break me out and does the job!

Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation
Yes, i know what your thinking!?! I have oily skin and i'm using a radiant foundation that has a lot of glitter specs in it and i should look like a shiny mess. But my confession is i LOVE this foundation!! It makes your skin look sooooo good! If its a short day then ill put this on but if its a longer day i do put a matte primer on before hand and take my powder with me. I have personally gone oilier with different matte foundations than this also!!


I love this palette because it has a few of my favorite eye shadow colors, lip gloss & blush/bronzer. It is perfect for travelling and as a everyday make-up essential. I like that the colors are shimmer and it has a black because if you decide to go out you can add a little black to create a smokey eye and not use the black for a day look. I just swipe the brown color in my crease and i'm done for the day!

Collection 2000 liquid eyeliner, i have only used this eyeliner EVER! And i love it, it works perfectly for me every time for me but when i run out i will try new things ha ha. I love to do a small cat eye flick through the day. Rimmel eye pencils, these are just what i have for now but they do work really well. The eye liner doesn't last all day but the eyebrow pencil looks very natural which i like. And this mascara 'rimmel scandal eyes rockin' curves' i love all these scandal eyes mascara and have this one because its the newest one but i do love it and it makes my lashes very long and curly!

And last but not least, my lip products... i swap between these two colors between moods. If i'm feeling fun and need a pick - up ill wear the brighter one 'hot plum' and if i'm the opposite then i'll wear 'midnight plum' both from Maybelline color sensational range. And the Nivea Hydro care is just my before lip product i use when iv'e done my face moisturizer because i suffer with really dry chapped lips if i don't!!

And they are my everyday makeup products, thanks for reading :)

Fashion Wednesday: Claireabella Jute Bag

http://www.claireabelladesigns.co.uk/boutique/Medium Jute Bag£34.99

So after seeing these all over TOWIE (The Only Way Is Essex) and on Instagram i finally decided to splurge and get one for myself. I love that you can customize it to look like a mini you and that it has your name on it. At first i didn't know whether to get the large or medium sized bag as i already think that the smallest 'polo jute bag' is too small but would be perfect for a little girl etc... So i went in the middle and got the medium sized one which is perfect for me as i don't travel round much but if i wanted to carry a load with me it probably would be big enough to do so. 

So when you go to customize your bag you get to pick...

- Personal text (Name)

- Hair Style (I went with long hair)

-Hair color (I went with Red)

- Outfit (I went with Posh)

- Eye color (I went with Blue)

- Skin tone (I went with natural, but next time i'll go with fair)

I think these are perfect gifts for yourself, a friend, family member. Especialy because they do limited edition 'mothers day' bags etc. And they don't just do bags they do wine glasses, mugs, diarys, phone cases etc... 

But overall i am so happy with my purchase and would recommend anybody else to get one of these as well. I think there so fun and girls and awesome!! 

Thank you Claireabella!
