Just a Rant

I am SO SO SO exited! It's my birthday in 15 days, and as I will be turning 16 I can get a job, some people when they turn 16 think.. eurgh cant be bothered! But I personally cannot wait, purely because I want to get into the make up industry as quickly and as soon as possible! It would be the most amazing thing to work on a high end make up counter at 16! So I've applied for Benefit and Laura Mercier I haven't seen any more vacancies available yet, but I've got my fingers crossed.

OOTD'S : SO sorry I haven't been doing these, I've just been working on my other Blog and doing Youtube videos so Im trying to even out the balance of each blog!.

Free Giveaway : 'theothersideofcool' won last months I posted it out to her and really hope shes enjoying wearing it!

WEATHER : Is it me, or does anyone else feel summer is completely over? This weather feels like winter and It's really depressing me, I'm actually afraid of winter! I hate the cold so much and It puts my mood in such a horrible low.

Birthday: It's so soooon!! Only 15 days, I am so exited! The plan for my birthday is : Me and mum are going down to London by train, getting treatments done in the Chelsea Day spa, followed by some lunch and shopping on Kings Road were then staying at a hotel nearby with my dad who will take us out for dinner! muhaha! Then the next day me and mum are doing what we do best... shopping! :D

My hair....

Well My hair up until yesterday was bleach blonde. I loved it so much, but it had been like that for ages and was in the most worst condition! So My hairdresser Sophie Who is brilliant dyed it for me, I was hoping for a dark natural blonde with dark bits in it, and so was she...

Anyway, as my hair was so porous it grabbed all the dark dye and now im a dark brown / reddy colour. Never what I or Sophie imagined, and it isn't her fault in the slightest but I really cant stay with dark hair! It's not me! So on she's said she wills sort it out for me on Friday, Sophie is the only hairdresser I trust, she's my cousins girlfriend and she's cut it perfectly. I love the style and shape, unfortunately not the colour, but I've only got until Friday to wait for that! I was thinking more so Lauren Conrad Colour / Cheryl Cole's new colour, ended up being more cheryl Cole's old colour (Not so red)

But at least its a change!  haha xxx

My reveiw for the Ojon Hair products!

So I did a post a few weeks ago saying I had just got the Ojon hydratting conditioner and shampoo, the hydration spray and their damage reverse restoratie hair treatment as my hair was dead and so damaged (I think from the amount of bleach in it) I've been using the treatment paste once a week on my whole head, then every other night on my fringe and ends it has really made a difference, the frizz is still there but not as nearly as bad as it use to be, my hair looks and feels so much softer, It's a great product but wow... It stinks!

Aswell as using the Ojon conditioner I've also been using the redken extreme conditioner (it smells amazing) I got it HERE for a great price! and those three working together have made my hair grow slightly (surprisingly) and it has made it so much softer! again, the dryness and frizz has gone down a lot!

The spray, has been my saviour! it is the best conditioning / hydrating spray I have come across, just spritz it on dry hair and leave it in, It immediately adds softness!

My mum ordered me the ojon products of qvc, with 2 tubs of the treatment, and the shampoo,conditioner and spray are 250ml. I don't know what she payed for them, but it was worth it! my hair feels and looks so much nicer.... thanks mum:)

ALSO !!! I'm getting my hair done on the weekend, going back to nearer my natural colour, but darker! I'm asking for a caramel all over colour with darker bits throughout it, and I want a 'lob' (long bob) I lvoe fearne Cottons hair length! If any of you have seen any celebrities with lovely lobs, could you post a comment with the link? I really need some inspiraiton pictures :) 

Thankyou for reading! xxxx

Short But Sweet

So Yesterday was a emotional but exiting day for me and my family! My brother was leaving to go to Honduras for a year! we had to get up at 4:30am to take him to Heathrow where we met the guy Tom was staying with (who was lovely, and got on really well with Tom) we had coffee and talked about what they will be doing (teaching english to the spanish students) when he went, ofcourse tears were rolling down all our eyes, but managed to keep it together! I will miss him so so much, infact I already do! everytime I think about it, I get a bit teary! After he jet setted of.. Me and Mum had to get to Gatwick to fly out to Switzerland! We're now here, and its gorgous! SO so hot! hello sunbathing....

Inspiration comes from everywhere!

Today has been a lovely day! I went to Paris' as she wanted to gain confidence with her photography and asked me if I would be happy her taking some of me, I said yes to help her, and she took some amazing photos! She has such a skill and talent with photography, give her a camera and BOOOM. There brilliant! I was surprised at how my face worked relatively well with her camera! ha I suppose its because it was the best of the best! She then Let me do her make-up and take photos of it, I dont know if you know but make up is my passion! I'm hopefully going to go to the West Thames College In London and do a make up course of theirs and carry it on with being a freelance make up artist, I am always doing different looks and practicing on friends, so when I get them photos I will put them up and show you!

These are some of the Photos Paris took today!

    My input ^^ haha! 

She truly is an amazing photographer, and people may think I am saying that because shes a best friend of mine, but honestly I really believe she will go along way with it! xxxx

My Guest Post On Scarlett's Blog

So, when I got this email from Scarlett asking me to do a :guest blog post for her I was thrilled, I felt so honored to be asked to do so, and felt I had achieved something through my blog, as Scarlett has a very successful BLOG (link to it <- there) and has around 3,500 viewers a day I was more than happy to do it for her! She asked me to write 200-300 words on my own style, and where I shop, mainly fashion/beauty related and take photos of some of my favourite outfits! 

I only emailed it to her about 30 minutes before she put it up, with a fantastic layout! Its brilliant, and I would be more than happy to do it for her again, 

thank you Scarlett for asking me:)

Urban Decay : Naked Palette                    

Real Techniques Core Collection : Brush Set

Nars Bronzer : Laguna

Avon : Super shock Eyeliner     

Mac : Studio Sculpt Concealer

I think that's it for the moment, No doubt I'll be asking for different things when It comes!        

Lets Go!

Next week, I'm going to Switzerland to see my best friend who has a Chalet out there, It truly is one of the most prettiest Countries I have been to, especially where she is, with all the mountains and the views, and the rock pools with natural water, yes they are amazing! So me and my mum are flying out there (Chloe's mum and mine are best friends too) so just the 4 of us, it will be lovely!

The same day we fly out my brother goes of to Honduras for a year! I can't seem to realize right now how long a year is! that's crazy, and as we get on so well it will be horrible, as well as that my oldest brother and his girlfriend are moving back to Essex when we are away, so all of a sudden it will just be me, my mum and our dogs at home.. (and my dad, but he works in London) That is such a weird thought!

So I may not be able to blog for about a week or so, as Chloe is coming back to stay with me, I may not get the chance! I will try though!

Sorry that wasn't a very exiting post, but I just wanted to let you know whats going on :)

John Freida : Go Blonder Spray

About 2 months ago, I bought this and used it about 2 - 3 times a week (I think that's more than recommended) 

It defiantly does what it says on the bottle, and does lighten your hair - rapidly. The effects were great, and got rid of my roots in an instant! Its cheap, so affordable for everyone...

BUT..

I can well and truly say, it killed my hair! My hair is now in the worst condition it has ever been! It feels like 

straw, and just doesn't have a nice look about it, I suppose it was obvious that was going to happen, as I was spraying bleach on my hair, a few times A week! But it has left my hair looking and feeling awful!

I suppose its good for very little use, say once every 3 weeks or something, as it wouldn't have much effect, if You looked after your hair well!

My hair however is getting back on the mend, quickly! I recently got 'Ojon' dry recovery shampoo + conditioner, the hydrating spray and two of their Restorative hair treatment  tubs, It is a paste, which turns into an oil when you apply it. That hasn't arrived yet, but the shampoo, conditioner and moisture mist has, I've only used them once (I've actually got the conditioner on as I'm writing this)  so I havn't had chance to do a reveiw, I will do after I get the result! (you cant buy them on the ojon website yet, but QVC frequently advertise it)

OOTD #3

Top : Topshop £16

Shorts : Topshop £26.

Cringe pose, I know... but it had to be done!

 I'm really sorry about it being such a boring outfit, but hey at least it is an outfit, I did promise I would do one everyday! :D It was terribly hot today, (again, before the rain etc) and from my awful burns yesterday, I didn't feel up to dressing nicely... sorrry!!

Topshop inspired : Newspaper Nails

This is What you'll need : Surgical Spirit, Newspaper, A pale nail varnish, A bowl and a top coat.

My nails just after I filed them (sorry about terrible quality)

Cut out 10 pieces of newspaper and make sure they are bigger than your nail

Paint your nails, allow them to dry, and then dip 1 finger into the spirit and press a piece of newspaper on it for a few seconds, peel it off carefully!

My Finished Result! pretty proud of them myself :') 

I Don't know if any of you saw, but A few weeks ago on Their blog, Topshop did a post called newspaper nails showing people what one of their girls had done to her nails with pieces of newspaper and surgical spirit! It was amazing, and looked so clever, I just had to try it!  I hope you found that useful, and will try it, if you don't have surgical spirit you can use any liquid that has alcohol in it! :)

Look Blog Comp!!

I know I've only just started blogging, but to win or even being in the rankings for the competion winner would

be the most amazing thing! 

I would love to be the winner as I have a passion for this, I do at least 2 posts everyday, it is early days

and like anyone else, you've got to start somewhere! I really love how blogging can

change someones life, and turn it around completely!

Blogging is something I have always had an interest in, and to be at the

front row of the Look Show would be out of this world! 

It would boost my confidence in a massive way and like all the other Look Blog comp winners change my life! 

I am hoping to get somewhere with my blog, and really dedicate myself to it! 

I started this blog when I was in a difficult place in my life, but part of writing a blog has made me better

It made me have something to do and take my mind of everything else that was happening to me

It made me want to be healthy and happy to be able to get somewhere with it, I have only been writing it for a few months but I feel it will slowly but surely get somewhere!

A day without laughter is a day wasted.

These are some of my favorite photos, they make me feel happy, and smile <3

My 2nd OOTD.

 my little (big) poodle : Dino :)

Dress : Topshop £25 (last summer)

So summer feels like it is finally here! Thank god.

It's been a weird day today, well I was meant to meet my friend for a catch up in town, but for

some sudden reason she couldn't make it! So I came home, had some lunch and went over to 

Paris' for the afternoon, went on a bike ride where we just sat in a field planning our

day to London and went in the spa, gorgeous! 

I've just this second got home, and came straight to my laptop to tell all you lovely readers about my outfit and my day! :)
