Summer Skincare Products

It's been a while since I've posted any skincare product recommendations so as it's summertime I thought it would be a great time to show you what I use for my skin on a day to day basis. Some may agree that the amount of products I use is a lot but I have to admit, my skin has never been so clear and in such good condition. So here's a lost of things I am loving for my skin right now.

♥L'oreal Paris skin perfection micellar water.
♥E45 moisturising lotion. I have found it so difficult to get a moisturiser that is actually any good for my skin and this has proven to be amazing for me.
♥LUSH 9 to 5 cleansing lotion.
♥LUSH tea tree toner water.
♥E.L.F Zit Zapper.
♥Sudocrem.
♥BOTANICS Night cream.

Please feel free to leave your comments and skincare recommendations, all are appreciated.

Favourite Summer Lip Shades

I am not one to wear make up all day everyday but I do love to go out on summer nights and I am one of those girls who cant just wear some elements of make up, I have to do everything. It's all or nothing with me. I have quite plumped lips and I do enjoy using lip products, especially MUA as you will find out in a second. So I picked seven shades (which was so difficult seeing as I have so may lip products) as  my summer favourites. 

 Left-Right

♥#1 Olay Lip Stain - Blackberry

♥#2 MUA- Barely There

♥#3 Maybelline Color Drama - Intense Velvet

♥#4 MUA PowerPout Glaze - Rapture

♥#5 MUA Glaze - Persian Plum

♥#6 MUA - Scarlet Siren

♥#7 MUA - Pouty Pink

Worries Don't Stop At Exams

♥ So over the past few months I have been nonstop revising and doing my A-levels, this took up basically all of my time which means I had not much time to do other things such as worry about results day never mind university. Once my Exams had finished, I was excited not only because of them being over but also because the next week I was flying off to sunny Menorca with my friends as part of a celebration and a sort of last goodbye, so obviously I was excited for this and having to pack, deciding what to bring and constantly telling myself not to forget my passport took up the time I had to think about the future.

 Now that I'm home it's finally hit me, either I've done well and I'm going or I haven't done to good and I have to make alternative arrangements. Personally, I find this a very scary process, actually I'm petrified, the idea of having to stay here and look at the disappointment in people's eyes when I tell them I haven't gotten into university is beyond heartbreaking, knowing that I've worked so hard to get to where I want to be and then have it all taken away by one sheet of letters.

Although, it could go the other way, being that I get the grades I need and I go, this would obviously be the perfect outcome for me and knowing that it's just a few weeks away until I know just about how my life will pan out and whether success is on the cards or not. These next few weeks are going to be a killer, a problem I seem to have like many others, is over thinking. When I'm keeping myself busy it's not that bad, the thought of results day is in the back of my mind and I can get on with my day. However, it's when I go to bed, this is the time my mind works on overload, the thoughts of either getting in or not take over, sometimes reducing me to tears, it's weird how that works, once you're tired, your brain works faster and thinks more than it would when you’re going about your day.

Not only am I constantly thinking and worrying about results day, but also uni life itself, I’m moving hours away by myself, I’m one of those people who hate to be without my family, I get so homesick. This really makes me wonder why I chose universities so far away; I really wish I chose some closer to home. Although I’m really good with people and I’m easy to get on with I find it hard to push myself into certain situations and living with and around complete strangers is one of those situations. I’m scared.

Sometimes, probably like so many people in the same situation as myself, I just wish I could speed up time or travel to the future just so I can know whether to keep my hopes up or not, I hate not knowing, I'm so impatient. One thing I do need to remember is that I'm not the only one going through this, there are thousands of people in my situation and those thousands too have to wait to know their fate.

This does however come with it's advantages, it's good to know I'm not alone in this, so many people will have the same thoughts as I do and although it's hard, I need to be patient just like everyone else. The time will come eventually.

I hope this helped anyone with the same thoughts as me, anyone going though the same mind torture. Only a few more weeks, that's all.

My Morning Routine Products

So I haven't blogged for a while ecause of school and work but now that I have time, I thought I would write a post on my morning routine and the products I use.

So to start off my day I always go to make a cup of tea and bring it back to bed where I lay there for a good hour on my IPad checking my blog, looking on my social media and checking and responding to my emails. Personally, I think everyday should start like this but most of the time I'm up at 6am to get ready for school.

The things that I do use daily is my skin and hair products.

When I'm done with my lazy part of my day, I wash my hair using the V05 nourish my shine shampoo and conditioner, I personally love these because it does what it says on the package, it does wonders to my hair!

Once I'm done with that I towel dry my hair and then put some Garnier ultimate belnds cocconut oil, this has been mentioned on my previous favouites post, I still use it because I love the way it makes my hair smell and it also adds protection.

Lastly with my hair I spray on some VO5 volume boost and plump it up blow dry lotion to make sure my hair is massive.

Once I've finished with my hair, I move on to my skin. Firstly, I use Garnier fresh cleansing lotion just because I love how it makes my face feel, then I use Neutrogena visibly clear pink grapefruit facial wash and Neutrogena visibly clear pink grapefruit daily scrub because I hate using soap. Once this is done I dry my face and use Nivea soft moisturising cream for my face and then finish off my moisturising everything else with my Superdrug own brand spray on body lotion.

Well there you have it, these are the things I use every morning.

Celebrity Big Brother 2015

I'm in love with big brother so much and when celebrity big brother comes on it makes me soo happy! I thought I would share my opinions on each housemate with you!

Jeremy

I never actually saw Baywatch so I didn't actually know who he is. Personally I don't like him. I thinks he's plain annoying!

Katie

When I heard that Katie was going in, I told myself I wouldn't watch this series because I can't stand the woman, but I have to admit, I kind of like her. I thinks she's alright as a person when she's not being so arrogant.

Alicia

I don't really see her as a celebrity, having plastic surgery doesn't make you a celebrity but she is a lovely girl. She doesn't do much though.

Ken

At the minute everyone hates Ken, personally, I like him. He's the entertainment of this series, no one else is causing the trouble he is. Without him it would be so boring.

Keith

I'm not really sure what to think of Keith, I'm waiting for him to engage with the the rest of the house. He keeps himself to himself but I want to see him being part of the house!

Callum

Oh Callum, he's so beautiful. I love him. That is all.

Perez

Again, people aren't really liking Perez but I think he's hilarious! He is another one who's bringing entertainment, not the kind people want but he's making it interesting!

Michelle

Michelle no doubt, has to be my favourite! I want her to win! She is just QUEEEEN!!

Chloe

Chloe does nothing but moan. That annoys me.

Kavana

Kav is another who I want to interact more. We don't see enough of him.

Alexander

Ok. I want to meet Alexander so much. He seems like the sort of guy you want around you all of the time. I hope he makes it to the final!

Patsy

Again, Patsy doesn't do anything but I like her.

Cami li 

Cami doesn't really do much except cause fights with ken, but she seems like she could be fun!

Nadia

Nadia is my hate this series, she doesn't know how to mind her own business, whenever there's a problem, she's there lingering like a bad smell. I need her to leave...like now.

❅Winter favourites❅

I never actually do a favourites posts but this month I am loving so many things so I thought I would share...

Unlike most favourite posts, this has no theme at all. It's just the things I'm loving at the moment.

Garnier Ultimate Blends Coconut Oil

Lately I am loving coconut, I just love the smell so much. I don't necessarily use this for it's intended purpose, I use it for the smell. I've been walking around intentionally making my hair 'swish' around just so I could smell the coconut. I absolutely love this!!

Victoria Secret Body Mist
Aqua Kiss// Sheer Love

When I first ordered this, I was actually so excited (weird I know). When it came, at first I was quite disappointed with the smell but it grew on me quite quickly, I received so many compliments and I'm always getting it stolen away. I never usually would spend a large amount of money on something like this but now I have fallen in love with it, I've ordered more and more.

Girl Online

I am a really big fan of Zoella and when I heard she was bringing out a book, I got so excited, I bought two, just so the person I have for secret Santa could have one too, it's really worth the buy!!

Union J-You Got It All
As you may know, I am obsessed with Union J, there is probably nothing I love more. So when their new album came out, I was straight thee to get it, like a proper fangirl, screaming once I got back into the car.

Avon Speed Dry Nail Enamel in Turquoise Pop & On Point Blue
I didn't actually buy these, I was given them. I probably wouldn't have got them myself, simply because I don't shop with Avon but I really love these, the colours are beautiful!!
