Love?


LOVE, What is it I mean so many people talk about it but how do you know if it's happening to you or a friend? It's difficult I mean what happens if your friend's love life means you never get to hang out? Or you're friends dating your ex, these things are really difficult. I mean love can be such a wonderful thing but also the worst. I had a boyfriend who broke up with me them asked 4 girls out in the same week! I mean that love was messed up. How do I know if I can trust love again? I mean its a big step and I'm scared of getting hurt again... How would you feel? Love week comes soon next week where I will talk about my problems and yours and what the true meaning of LOVE is.

Love?

Fake It Up By Benefit Review

Hello! It's nearly the end of summer so I thought I'd do a couple of reviews on y summer products so to start off I'll be doing a review on My Fake It Up concealer by Benefit!

  • Buy again: Yes
  • Package Quality: 5
  • Price: 4/5
  • Amount: Little



Before...











As you can see I have very big dark circles. My eyes are puffy and redness. These are all things I'm hoping my Concealer will get rid of. Considering the price it definitely should! The redness in the middle is where I got sunburnt!


Applying the concealer...











It is really easy to apply. It has a nice grip and is not difficult to turn. The concealer also moisturises your eyes this reduced the puffiness and redness of my eyes! I also put the concealer over my eyelid as well as my dark circles to give it a more natural look.


After...

The redness has completely disappeared! My dark circles are no more! I am so pleased with this product! I will definitely buy it again. The only bad thing is the amount and price there is only a small amount in the package and a large price. The veins on my eyelids also disappeared this product is very pleasing. I totally recommend buying it!









 













Building you're inner confidence

Thursday 29th August 2013







Building Your Inner Confidence


A lot of teens struggle to find confidence. It can stop them from being brilliant! Not having confidence can be the worst thing ever. I'm going to help you guys get your confidence back!



Tips

1.Make yourself happier at home. Talk with friends and do fun stuff for a while until you can't keep that happiness bottled and need to let it out.

2.Start at school by making sure your head does not lower and your hair does not go in front of your face like a cover. Keep hair off your face, put that hood off your head, and wear bright cheery approachable colors like orange and green and walk with pride!

3.Make eye contact. If you cannot do that, look at their shoulder or something near their eyes.

4.Don't hide! It'll make you seem like you don't want to talk. Don't be shy stand up for what you believe in!


5.Smile or laugh at jokes, this makes you more noticeable. Tell some too. I love smiling and doctors say less muscles are used smiling than frowning so there it is smiling is healthier than frowning!

6.Smile a lot. Its better when someone looks around and sees this bright happy person with a beautiful smile than just not noticing you in the background.




7.Don't be phony. Keep the friends you have as your friends. You don't want to push them away and then not be accepted by others.

8.Be who you are! Be yourself. Don't be who you aren't. Never pretend to be the person you want to be.

9.Take risks! You only get one life! Work hard at your goals, laugh a lot, love everyone you can and trust yourself. Make a point to do something that you have wanted to do but also scares you. It might be hard at first, but the more you do it, the more proud of your self you become. That's how you become confident.

Things to Do

1. star-gaze on a trampoline/from your roof/on a dock 

2. go to an amusement park and ride EVERYTHING 

3. throw a pool party and then only have a kiddie pool for everyone to sit in 

4. go to a music festival and meet a famous person 

5. create a treasure hunt for someone. rip a page from a library book and replace it with a clue with a location on it. the next location have another clue, etc. Put the page at the end of the hunt. (can also be done other ways, that's just an example) 

6. get something pierced (could be anything from ears to something painful. make sure your parents okay it first and you go somewhere to get it done. doing it yourself or having a friend who is not experienced do it is a really bad idea, I can't stress it enough) 

7. kiss an unsuspecting guy,My guy's in England :(

Beauty Week Hair Day

Tuesday, 27 August 2013




Beautiful Hair

The ultimate guide to beautiful hair is in your hands! Today I will show you how to achieve lucious locks.








The Right Hair-cut


Above all, fine hair needs the right cut. If you have shoulder-length hair, you can try long layers – they provide a lift and give the illusion of fullness the hair wouldn’t have if it was longer and all one length. If you’d prefer an even shorter style, ensure you keep the hair long enough to create volume and softness. It’s worth paying a tad extra for a great cut, and regularly visiting your stylist for upkeep.

How to Blow-Dry Your Hair


When you blow-dry your hair, tip your head upside down and aim for the roots from underneath, with your hair dryer on medium heat. Do this until your hair is just slightly damp, then add a styling product and finish drying. A common mistake is to finish blow-drying too soon. If you do and there’s still moisture in your hair, it will go flat very quickly. Give it a quick blast with the dryer on the cool setting to eliminate any dampness.


How To Wash Hair
When it comes to washing your locks, always use products specifically formulated for fine hair. It’s also important you don’t over-wash as this will cause flyways  so don’t wash your hair every day.Avoid using smoothing products that contain silicone and polymers, as they’ll actually weigh fine hair down. Use a clarifying shampoo every few weeks to remove residue and maintain results. Make sure when you use up you're shampoo and conditioner to get a different one because using the same shampoo and conditioner all the time will make you're hair immune to the shampoo and conditioner.

If you can’t make it, fake it!
There are a few stylists’ tricks you can use to instantly improve the visual thickness of your hair. You can buy products, such as Toppik Hair Building Fibers, which are shaken or sprayed onto the hair to immediately give a fuller appearance. These fibres come in a range of shades to suit most hair colours. Another way to achieve instant volume is with clip-in hair extensions. There are options available for every hair type, colour and length, and they can also be styled to suit.

Maximum Oomph
The softer your hair, the more help you need from styling products to give it fullness. For maximum oomph, apply a volumising spray, cream or mousse to your roots while the hair is slightly damp. Use a round brush to finish blow-drying and lift the hair off the scalp. Be wary of waxes, gels and glosses as they can contain greasy substances that make your hair stringy. 

Tips

Eye Cream Is Great For Cuticles
Instead of spending money on cuticle cream, you can use extra-moisturizing and hydrating eye cream to cure dry cuticles.

If you've just had your hair dyed, the last thing you want is for the colour to fade. One surefire way to prevent such a mishap from happening? Use a deep-conditioning treatment once a month. This will help lock in colour and has the added benefit of staving off dry and damaged locks.



Giving yourself a natural glow avec blush is an in look for spring. Always start your blush line two finger widths away from your nose and only apply it on the apples of your cheeks. This will ensure you create a natural glow without going overboard.

Never brush curls out with a brush. Instead, loosen them with your fingers. This will give curls added lift without flattening them down.


To make your cheekbones appear higher and to give them more structure, apply bronzer directly under the cheekbone. You can also add highlighter to the cheekbone itself (under a thin layer of blush).


Before you start blow drying your hair, add a volumizing spray to your roots. This will give your locks some added lift.
