Naked Palette!

Finally got one! Woop woop!!! It was out of stock when I went to Boots but then I went to Milton Keynes Debenhams and they got a new Urban Decay and Smashbox beauty counter and everything was in stock! :D

I used the Naked Palette, MAC Espresso and Cork :)

Haul and some cheap bauty finds!

I've been shopping in MK latety, bought a lipliner (I don't really see the point of them really :S), eyelash curlers (I needed one desperately as I haven't had one since 3 years ago and that was cheap!) and a primer. I didn't buy much as I'm short of money atm, when my cousin came over I was the one who had to spend on everything whilst we were partying and going out.. yuuppp she didn't spend a penny :| Which by the way isn't gonna happen again. I thought it was quite inconsiderate of her. I'm not a fucking bank. We're both studends, yet she still has guts to never spend a penny, like I have to buy her drinks and pay for her entrance fee! :| It's kinda ok seeing as this is the first time she's been for a visit but I just think its wrong to expect someone to ALWAYS pay for you, specially if you're both students. Not to mention I want to do my driving lessons soon and get braces.. ugghh, it just gets better and better doesn't it?

urgh anyway enough with the moaning! I found a really good buy when I went to TKMaxx today :D I thought, "OMG I haven't been there in ages!" I found a Stila Lipstick for £3.99 (RRP £16.00) and an eyeshadow for £2.99 (RRP £11.00)! woot! What I bargain! xD I don't know weather I've ever mentioned that I needed a mirror that magnifies but I got that today too for £12.99. :D

Will post pictures later :)

I keep thinking that some of my eye make-up all look a bit identical cause I don't have enough shadows so I'm thinking I might get the Urban Decay NAKED palette or NYC Book of Shadows III. However, I prefer the NAKED Palette since the colours look more wearable? Check it out:

New Hair.

Got my haircut last Thursday! My hair was getting on my nerves, I initially didn't want it cut too short but I had to because of the short layers that has massive split ends which keeps geting caught on my hairbrush. :( Ah well.. I miss my long hair though. I'm finding it hard to get used to my hair and the fringe is actually pissing me off. Its taking me ages to get ready because some long hair sometimes gets mixed with it and I hate it when it has a gap. I decided to have a full fringe to hide my disgusting eyebrows that I'm trying to grow out. Haha! I actually can't stand looking at my eyebrows ungroomed. yiikeess"

Golden Brown

I made this look couple of weeks ago and have been meaning to post it but keep on forgetting! Lol So I cropped my face out as I don't look very presentable and this was experimental. I actually forgot what colours I used here other than Bare Escentuals True Gold pigment.

I have been meaning to do looks ages ago but I had an allergic reaction into something topical that I've put on my face. I had like rashes all over my face and it was a bit swollen. Thank God it seems to be settling now.

I've finally finished placement yesterday!! YAAAYYY!!! xD :D I will post some haul pictures tomorrow as I went shopping in MK couple of days ago. :)

Another neutral

So far I'm surviving placement, apart from this week I have worked with the most horrible and evil woman! :O Her looks really does reflect her personality.. Ugh! Really can't wait till its finished! For some reason I can't wait to go back to Uni! haha

Anyways another neutral make-up! I swear they all look the same? :( Anyways I like this better than before because its so much quicker to do! :D I was gonna do one of those colourful ones but still haven't got shadesticks and since I live in the UK I don't know any place where they sell NYX Jumbo pencils. However, I'm thinking of giving 17 or Barry M a try when I'm less strapped for cash. I have to take a taxi every morning to go to placement and its making me broke! I never manage to wake up early or even sleep earlier than 12 :// Then I have to wake up at 6.30 am!




Eyes:
Laure Geller Marble Shadow in Pink Icing and Devils Food
MAC e/s Malt
NYC Falsh Lashes (I think I've cut off too much of the strands :S)

FOTD

OMG I am not doing so well blogging! I have placement and have been really busy and tired! Ugh, can't wait till its over! I have another 3 weeks to go. :O

I'm still to grow my eyebrows back :/ Anywho, still re-thinking to have or wether not to have braces this year? As I'm thinking of starting my driving lessons again and can't manage to do both at the same time. :( I really need to get a job!

Anyways this is my "Neutral" look that I seem to do almost everytime I feel like wearing eyeshadows:






Eyes:
MAC Malt e/s (all over lid to crease)
Too Faced Palette Starlette (Light Colour - Lid)
Too Faced Palette The Tempress (Dark Colour - Crease)
Estee Lauder Taupe (outer v)

Oooh yeah I was in a rush so I forgot to put a highlighter on my brow bone. :O

Summer is nearly over

OMG I can't believe I haven't blogged as much! Anyways my summer have been busy and pretty much awesome! My cousin came over and we spent a lot of time bonding, shopping and partying! :D I have done quite a lot of looks as I had my cousin to practice on, unfortunately I didn't get to take pictures as we were always rushing! Anywho, I will have to recreate some of the looks that I did to her soon before I go back to placement. I start on Monday so I have the weekend to do it. I'm really not looking forward to that placement as I've been there before and some people I had to work with were quite bitchy. uggh, girls ehh? lol

As I stated on my previous post, I was ill. I was ok about 2 weeks ago but now, I have a cough and cold again.. just in time for my placement. :| My voice is literally running out and I sound croaky. I will update on pictures a bit later as I am using my crappy net book which is even slower than a turtle.

I finally managed to get a consultation with an orthodontist regarding my teeth. OMG my Mum paid £80 for it and my treatment is gonna be worth £3500! Initial payment of £850 and 2 monthly instalment of £350 for 8 months. :O Where the heck am I supposed to get all that money from?!?! :$ My parents are offering to pay for it but I really can't let them for it as we need a new car. I really need to find a job! Not to mention I have to start doing my driving lessons again!! FML, someone shoot me now, I'm in a financial crisis. LOL I have to stop shoppping for clothes and make-up. :(( I'm really broke right now as I did too much shopping so I have like £20 left in bank card.

Here are some photos (more to come):

err

I really don't feel well today.. Honestly I just feel like lying in bed all day. Anyways yesterday I quickly went to MAC to get a lid colour for a neutral/pin-up look. I think I got the wrong colour (Malt). Ugh, I hate how they have bad lightning in their stalls. It actually looks kinda pink-ish on my lid. I did attempt to make a neutral look but its a failure :(

FOTD

Ok ssoooo here I'm posting another FOTD, I swear it looks similar to yesterdays but I made it a bit darker ;D and used a lighter lid colour as a base (clinique eyeshadow duo like mink - lighter colour). Whilst I was doing this, I was ooohh nnooo I did it wrong! But it actually went well..

I'll edit the photos and add more soon as I'm using my sisters laptop and don't know how to re-size photos on here.

Anyways, I've been to cinema quite a lot lately. The best movie I've seen has to be TOY STORY 3!! OMG I freakin love it! It was hilarious specially when buzz lightyear turned into spanish mode.. lmao. The others are all crap, inception was not my cup of tea, cats and dogs are wayyy to childish for me. I thought cats and dogs was gonna be funny though :S

Summer update

Sssooo I've finished my placement and exams around the first week of June =D Summer has not really been all that exciting as there were trips planned but some were cancelled. Went clubbing last week in Batchwoods but didn't really have a great time anyways as I didn't really feel like going out but went out as I already agreed to go earlier.. :? :// Oh well. And the weather hasn't really been all that good lately. It just can't make its mind up, first its sunny then it rains.. >:O

I got my exam result and I passed! Phew!! Thank God! :D It was hard to manage placement and studying at the same time. I did manage to study couple of days before the exam though.. Yayyy go me! Third Year, here I come :) I really didn't expect all the grades I got from first year all straight A's for my assignments, so I really am thankful to God for blessing me :)

Oh and again, I got lazy doing my own eyebrows so I decided to go to a salon in Welwyn for the first time ever to get it done.. and guess What??!?!? She ruined my eyebrows!! *cries* I said "NOT TOO THIN!" AARRRGGHH I FREAKIN HATE THIN EYEBROWS! Now I'm gonna have to grow it out again :O:O:O I'm officially traumatized going to a salon to get my eyebrows fixed so from now on I'm just gonna do it myself. I can't believe this happened to me again?!?! uggghhh!

Anywho, I did go MAC shopping about two weeks ago (gosh it really does burn a whole on my pocket, I'd rather spend it on food.. dominos pizza anyone?) and bought some eyeshadows. I have also been shopping, shopping, shopping for clothes! ha! I just love SELFRIGES and MILTON KEYNES wayyyy too much! Now i'm broke! :O Anyways back to the point! I'm not good at make-up so I'm thinking of posting looks on my blog just because I tend to forget what I colours I've used and to practice. I tend to look back at my pictures and think "what have I used for that again?"! LMAO.

So here's my FOTD as they say! Haha:






Used:
MAC All that glitters e/s
Bare Minerals Downtown e/s
Estee Lauder Taupe e/s
Bare Minerals ??(forgot the colour) e/s

Oh ALL THAT GLITTERS is that eyeshadow some stupid Make-up artist picked for me and its not my favourite, don't even know why I bought it?? ¬¬ which is why I decided to use it today for some random looks that I can use for the day.. I swear some make-up artists in MAC are just incompetent! They do my freakin head in. One time, I went there, an MA recommended a silver thingy for a smokey look? Just how on earth does that go with my skintone??!?! I'm BROWN!!! And another thing, I was looking for my shade and I was recommended I was an NW?? OMFG, how am I an NW if I clearly have yellow undertones! :S :O

I'm off to eat my Roast Beef dinner with Yorkshire pudding! yuummmmyyyyy

Semester B Results!

Sooo got my results last Friday! Can't believe I totally forgot to blog?! :S They made me wait the whole day for it. :| Glad to have them now though so the wait is over! :D Tan-tan-ta-ta-tash! *drum roll* I got two 'A's for my modules!! :D:D:D THANK GOD :) I'm really thankful and impressed as so far in Uni, I have been getting A's! I swear I was never really an A student. I was always like a C student. LOL

Now just ONE MORE EXAM left then it's summer baby! I haven't been revising so I'm f*cked. I blame it on my placement, 5 days a week of work, damn it! I'm halfway placement now though, glad in a way but nervous at the same time as that would mean my exam is getting closer and closer. One thing I'll be glad about when I've finished with this placement is that I will no longer be dealing with bitchiness. As I've had to work with one of the bitchiest people I ever met. Honestly, there's always someone bitching about their colleage in every corner, in every break and lunch. Ugh, what a turn-off. They have no professionalism whatsoever, some of the women there as well have such loud mouths. It pisses me off, specially the bitchiness :|

I'm off to do a bit of bed time reading and note taking (revision) seeing as I failed to do some when I got home. Stupid facebook distracting me. I SWEAR I'M GONNA DE-ACTIVATE IT.

Long Time..

I keep on forgetting to post on my blog. :( Anyways nothing new really. I just read through my last entry and I was talking about results for Sem A. I'm pleased with results from Sem A! Got an A2 for my assignment! :D What a relief as I'm not one of those people that think I'm good at everything and assume that I'll get top marks! haha PHEW! Now its time for the Sem B results which I'm waiting for >.< Got my fingers crossed on that.. Oh GOSH :O

I'm currently on placement at an Outpatients clinic which is quite good at least its much better than my last placement. I literally have no life other than placement and home. Got exams on July 5 which I'm worried about. I have to work Mondays - Fridays, meaning that I don't have that much time to revise as I get so tired from placement. When I come home I just want eat and then sleep. That's how tired I get. I haven't actually been going out lately, to try and get some revision done and it hasn't been successfull. *sighs* Got so much to revise and I've done about 2% out of the whole.. What a huge progress! haha

Excited!

Omg, I'll be seeing my cousin tomorrow! :D wooooooo!!! Can't wait!

Anyways finally I'm halfway of this stupid placement. It seems to be taking forever and its the worst placement ever as I have the laziest worst mentor who seems to think the worst of me. Ugh, nevermind, 3 weeks more then I'm off! (: I hate having to get early 5 days a week for a 9-5 work, I'd pretty much do longdays. Its really pissing me off because when I get home I'm absolutely shaterred. Probably because I have been feeling quite ill with an on/off flu symptoms and my asthma isn't helping. ;( I know I moan and complain a lot xD I had my mid interview with the evil cow and she seems to always come up with negative things :-/ I mean she would say something good and then something negative, if that makes any sense :-S Still have tons of work to do like researchin to find statistics, blah blah blah for this assignment that I have to do, I haven't even started any of my essays :-S I should really try and start them today as I think I'll be away the whole day tomorrow Northampton! ;D

f*cksake, I got up so early this morning since my sister decided to wake me me up for the heck of it when I was already asleep last nite then I couldn't sleep anymore >;| Really hate it when I get disturbed when I'm sleeping, f*cks me off instantly. I cannot believe my sister now has an IPhone. I only got Blackberry Curve but that's because I'm paying for my own contract (: However, my Dad told me that he's getting me an IPhone as well xD yay!!t

Oh my days, I checked my studynet and results for Sem A is delayed untill Tuesday the 23rd of Feb! Ugh, honestly they've made me wait long enough as it is >;( I just wanna know what grades I got!! ahahaha what a nerd! 8-)

It's nice and sunny outside so I might go to town or go jogging (:

First Post of 2010 :D

Omg I've completely abandoned this blog. I'm sorry :(( I didn't really feel like blogging anymore before as I feel like I've had nothing interesting to talk about but nevermind, I'm back now :D

Well what can I say I can't believe its 2010.. how quick! It's been more than a year since my last post. 2009 was a blast! I spent the New Year with my family at Leicester which was awesome :D Oh and have I mentioned that I turned the BIG 20 on the January 6? Omg I feel ssooooo old. I didn't do anything special on my birthday just spent my day with the family. It snowed heavily as well! It did snow tons before and after my birthday but I didn't bother taking pictures as I was being lazy and too cold to go out. LOL I went out couple of days before christmas in the local town, it snowed heavily and we got stranded so we all had to stay in a hotel. ahahaha I kinda got the feeling we'll get stranded, I wasn't gonna go out but I did anyways as we planned it and everyone got excited. Oh well.

Anyways more about life. I have survived being in the first year at uni :) with all the procrastinating, *sighs* nothing ever changes. :-( Not bragging or boasting but to be fair, I'm pretty satisfied with my grades from last year few A's here and there. How surprising =O! It feels kinda strange being a second year uni student and not referring to myself as a "fresher/freshman" anymore. :-S Not to mention some friends that I have gotten close to have left the course :( There's definitely more pressure, more workload and high expectations from everyone! aarrgghhh..

I really really want to write more but I have things to do right now so I'll leave it till next time. I have to wake up early for placement tomorrow.. :( Ciao!
