Cloud Nine Hair Straighteners Review

Hi Everyone, 

So I have recently posted my October Favourites and in it I said how I would post a separate hair straightener review for you so that is what I am doing to do today for you! 


i have the Cloud nine hair straighteners; when I asked for these for Christmas I wasn't sure whether to go for GHD's or Cloud Nines. The difference between the two is that you can alter the temperature on the Cloud nines and you can't on the GHD. This isn't why I went with the Cloud nines I had just heard really good things about them and though it might make a change from the classic GHD's. 

I love these hair straighteners so much and I do not regret my decision at all as I think they are brilliant. My hair looks so sleek and straight and they are effortless to use; it takes me about ten minutes in the morning to straighten my hair and I have a lot of thick hair so that shows how powerful they are. The maximum temperature for these is 'high' but it goes '200' and then 'high' so they get really hot. 

These are quite pricey but I do think they are worth it!

Birthday Wishlist

Hi Everyone, 

So my birthday is coming up and I thought this year I would create a Wantfeed, if you haven't heard of Wantfeed it is a wish list site. All you have to do is sign up for free and 'want' things then overtime you create a long wantfeed of all the things you want and just send the link to people whenever they ask you what your want for your birthday or Christmas. Its also super useful because when other people go on your Wantfeed they can just click on the link and it takes them straight to the website of what you want so they can order it there and then! 

I really like how the app works and how you always know what you want all year round. 





The main things I have asked for are vouchers and clothes but I added some more stuff on here to give more variety for people to choose from if they want. I have been wanting a pinky nude lipstick for a while but wasn't going to get a highness one because of the price but then I thought I can put it on here if anyone else wants to get me it. 

It doesn't look like a lot; there are some other things I would like - 

Some Nike/Adidas shoes for everyday wear but I don't know which ones I want yet so I couldn't add any.
A Nars foundation - But I'm not sure what colour I am at Nars so I need to get tested int he store before I add that on here and I will probably and up treating myself to that in December if I don't get it. 

So yeah I just thought i would share this with you and this might give you guys some ideas for what to ask for Christmas!

Clinique Lipstick Review

Hi Everyone, 

So the other day I got sent a Glamour magazine and with that came a Clinique Lipstick. I was super excited to try it as the colour looked really pretty. I'm not sure if the lipstick is new and it doesn't have a name all it says is Clinique and the colour is 'cherry pop'. I tried it on and I love it! 

Firstly it is extremely moisturising and it stays on for a long time, I ate dinner with it on and it stayed. I think the colour is really pretty and I love it! I don't know how much it is but you can still go and get a freebee of it in the Glamour Magazine which is out now with Tanya Burr on the cover! The packaging is also very useful as its small meaning you can easily carry it around with you and there is a mirror on the end too! 

I would rate this lipstick a 10/10 because there really isn't more I could ask for; amazing staying power, gorgeous colour and super moisturising!

Day in the Life

Hi Everyone,

Today was a normal day and I was just getting things done so I thought it might be interesting for you to see what I get up to!


The first thing I do in the morning is get breakfast as I'm always hungry! There wasn't much so I went with Special K. I usually watch the most recent Sacconejolys vlog when I'm having breakfast.


After having breakfast I make my bed, my room always looks so much cleaner and organised when I've done this.


Then I go ahead, cleanse my face and clean my teeth which makes me feel so much more awake! 


This picture would not rotate but it is to show you that I did my makeup, no this isn't all the makeup I used I put half of it away and left half of it out! 


I chose my outfit and walked into town because I was getting my eyebrows threaded at midday so I went to do that and had a lovely walk on my own! 
Outfit:
Shoes - New Look 
Jeans - River Island 
Jumper - Primark 
Coat - Forever 21 


After getting my eyebrows done I didn't look around the shops I came home and had some lunch, a marmite and cheese sandwich with crisps.


After lunch I needed to do my work as I had been putting it off all week, every time! That took me about an hour. 


Then I had a play around with makeup, I don't always do this but there are days that I feel really creative with trying new makeup. (Sneak peek into my makeup collection) 


Time to write a blogpost! I do this daily as I upload every day.


I always watch Gossip Girl in the background whilst I blog and thats exactly what I am doing now! Season 3 episode 21. 

After getting my work and blogposts done I went to a Family Friends 1st birthday party for two hours which was really good fun!


Then I came home and had dinner Salmon, mash and salad which was yummy.


 I usually sit downstairs and watch t.v usually Nashville, that is what my Mum and Me are watching at the moment and it is much better than it sounds. 


I will then go and take my makeup off, put my pyjamas on and watch some Youtube before going to bed. 

I hope you enjoyed this

My Favourite... Deodorant

Hi Everyone, 

So today in the weekly series is my favourite deodorant. I have tried so many; Sure, Vaseline, Dove, or any other and none have lived up to Mitchum. I first saw Mitchum in Super drug and it was half price (it usually is so have a look out for it) so I picked one up and loved it. It blocks the odour scent and instead releases oxygen, it has made such a difference to me and i am now addicted! I wouldn't be able to go back to another deodorant now as I honestly think this one is by far the best!

10 Random Autumn/Winter Questions Tag

Hi Everyone, 

Today I thought I'd do another tag as they are my favourite to write! 

1. What item of clothing do you love to wear in winter but wouldn’t be seen wearing it in public?

Probably my onesie as it is super warm and cosy but my onesie is a fox and I know I would get millions of stares for wearing that in public! 

2. Most wanted item for autumn/winter?

Loads more chunky knit jumpers or sweatshirts as they are addictive and I always get drawn to them in shops because I can never have too many! 

3. Favourite boots to wear in winter?

My favourite boots to wear in Winter are 100% my H&M Suede boots. They are so comfortable and really easy to walk in. They do have a four inch heel but I love them and think they were so affordable! (£29.99)


4. Are you a fan of UGG boots?

Ok so I am mixed on Ugg boots, I have a tan pair of uggs and I think they are super comfortable and really warm; I used to live in them over the Winter. However I don't think they are the prettiest of shoes and I never wear them outside unless it is to babysitting, I wear the boots I mentioned above instead. I don't see a problem with them on anyone else but I personally am not a fan much anymore. 

5. Its snowing/raining outside, what are your favourite wellies to wear?

I was brought a pair of pink Joules wellies about four years ago but they are now a size five and I'm a size six so I always have to squeeze my feet into them! I love them though!

6. What is your favourite autumn trend?

Chunky knitted jumpers and black boots! A simple but effective outfit! 

7. Do you like or dislike that it’s starting to get dark?

I like it, it makes me feel cosy. I think a lot of people don't like it because it makes them realise its nearly Winter but that gets me excited! However I don't like it when I'm out on the weekends as I hate walking around in the dark. 

8.What is your typical winter/autumn day consisting of?

Writing blogposts, drinking tea, burning candles and watching Netflix or Youtube as well as obviously seeing friends and family! 

9.What’s your favourite color to wear on your lips in winter?

Plum! I go for a plum lipstick straight away and I love it! 

10.Christmas is coming, do you have any idea of what you want?

Well my birthday is also in December so I think I will ask for a joint Birthday and Christmas present. I am uploading my birthday/christmas Wishlist soon so look out for that! 

I hope you enjoyed this tag!

Bath and Body Works Candle Haul

Hi Everyone,

Another post for you all! So one of my best friends went to New York last week and there was a deal on at Bath and Body Works, as there isn't one of those over here I thought I would ask her to get me some and treat myself to some Autumnal candles! The deal was three mini candles for $12 which is pretty good because that is the equivalent to £7.80 for three mini candles which I was very happy with!

Anyway I like to ramble! Here are what she got me, thank you Sophia! 


From left to right - 

1. Sparkling Pear Riesling - This candle smells exactly like elderflower to me and I didn't think I would like the smell of this one because I don't like pears but I actually really love this one! 

2. Pumpkin Apple - This candle has cinnamon in it which is what it mostly smells of and it  also smells exactly like one I have smelt from Yankee candle but I can't think which one! I love this and the lid is copper with a leaf on which makes it even cuter. 

3. Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin - To be honest this candle smells quite similar to the middle candle but I don't mind because I love the smell; the only difference is that this one smells more of pumpkin and less of cinnamon.
