Life Updates #1

I have decided to start a little series called life updates which may/ or may not be posted every sunday, as i feel like i need more about me on my little space!
With that exciting news, lets start this post off.
Firstly, i am moving house in 3 weeks, which is very very exciting. I feel like everybody i know is moving house as well, even on the youtube/blogosphere. Plan for moving are well ahead and we might have possibly sold our house as well,basically everything is happening at once!
As it is summer time and we all want luscious summer bodies, i will be doing more blogpost on healthy, easy summer snacks. So you can snack away at your desire and still fit into that tight fitting dress. To add to that i will be writing posts on fitness and health, without leaving behind the beauty posts as well.
If would be wonderful if you could bear with me, for these couple of weeks anyway!

Holiday Essentials!

In a couple of days i am going to be off to Portugal for 3 weeks and as you can imagine i have been very busy packing. Anyway whenever i go on Holiday, i take a bag of beauty essentials, stuff i need for everything (apart from suncream and very obvious stuff like that).

All the essentials!

 So for my 'base' i always take tinted moisturiser because it is really light on the skin, also it has SPF and won't break me out. The on i am taking is Liz Earle Sheer Tint, which i really like a recommend. Also i have a little sample of Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Benefit Foundation as i am testing it on my skin to see if it breaks me out, might do a review.

Next i take my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, I am obsessed with this! Some days i just wear a bit of concealer on my face as it is such a good coverage! Then i have my Hoola bronzer and my Bobbi Brown lips and cheeks tint. I love to add colour to my face even when i am tanned/burnt! Also one of my all time favourites MUA pressed powder, really helps me with oil control and gives me the slightest bit of coverage!

These products are mainly for night as i don't wear these to the beach. I have my MUA Heaven&Earth palette and my liquid Soap&Glory Supercat Eyeliner and my MUA black pencil liner! These are just my basics for a going out look, but they are so versatile. 

This is the 'real' essentials photo, body cream to soothe the skin, deodorant (obvious reasons), lip balm and Spot spray.

Then i have my Makeup Remover, which i really recommend as it is not harsh on my skin and removes the Make Up. Also i have the Triple Performing moisturiser from benefit (review coming soon) which i put on morning and night. A light beachy fragrance is great on holiday! I have been using Hollister Salana Beach.

The mascara's am taking are: Collection Pump up the volume and Max Factor 2000 Calorie! Thiese are just mascara's that do their job!

 Finally i bring my brushes, hair essentials and a nail file. Again simple products!

 What are your holiday essentials that are not in this post?

Miss Sporty Nail Galore!

Bright nail colours are all the rage this summer, but i have seen a lot of blues and sparkle on people's nails. After some experimenting i found that Miss Sporty Nail varnishes are absolutely amazing for the great price of £1.99!
I am not really a nail person but this summer i have been trying out all sorts, and found that Miss Sporty is a great nail polish brand.

The three colours that i love are 'Blue Bath', 'Pop Fiction' and a 'Glitter'.

The brushes are not thin a flimsy they are generally quite wide brushes with is great as i hate fiddling for ages trying to paint my nails. Also the colour shows up really well , so if you were in a hurry you could do one layer!
Personally i cannot justify myself spending more than £5 on a nail polish as i just cannot afford to buy lots of them.
I think if you are on a budget and you need a new nail polish please check out Miss Sporty before going to somewhere like Essie as there are fabulous dupes out there, not just Miss Sporty!
