London Vlog Post!


On Thursday, I went into London with my family for the day, the trip was really good and I thoroughly enjoyed the day.

We had tried to catch the 12.53pm train, but annoyingly missed it by a second! instead, we had to sit around half an our, drinking coffee and listening to a 40 odd lady drone on about her day, which was not very exciting mind you. -Yawn-

It took around an hour to et into London, were we took the tube to covent garden and had a meal at Maxwells, across from MAC makeup store, I wish I could of gone in but my father refused to wait for me to prance and admire the makeup. -le cries-

We then took a look in M&M world, a very expensive and jammed packed place!

Union Jacks made out of M&M's

 
After, we then went to watch warhorse at the West End. it was thoroughly enjoyable, and the actors were amazing, the story line was brilliant and they made it so believable! I generally didn't see the fake horses made by wire and sticks etc, I saw them as large majestic horses- cheesy, I know!-
the show didn't start till 7.30pm, so it was late finishing and I did not get home until 12pm. I thoroughly enjoyed my day!
 
I will be reviewing the foundation I wore of the day, and the post will be up tomorrow! keep an eye out on my bloglovin account!
 
Love, Paige

My makeup wishes

So, everyone has there own list of makeup wants, including me! I thought, I would share my own wishes- high end and drugstore. Being a student, my budget is very low and many of my wishes are basic and most are probably something you guys already have, I'm not going to share them all but I will give a couple of examples. 

1) The Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. 
I have not got the 1st and 3rd of this series, this would be my first palette of the collection. Personally, these colours are my favourite and I know will suit my skin tone.
 
 
 
 
2) Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick - Shade: as you want Victoria-
 (It is pink, I swear!) 

I really love lipsticks, and I love the 'pop'! of pinks for evening and special occasions.
 
 
 
 
 
 
3)
Soap & Glory™ Archery™ Brow Tint And Pencil
I have read so many positive comments and I have not found my eyebrow holy grail so hopefully, I will love this eyebrow tint and pencil.
 
 
 
 
 
4) Soap & Glory™ Kick Ass Concealer™ Three - Piece Camouflage Kit


 
 
 
 
5) Max Factor Miracle Touch Foundation
 
I first saw this in Boots and was instantly attracted to it, a creamy texture that was soft and smooth
 
 
6) Mac Prep+prime transparent finishing powder
 
I have heard such good praise for this product, I just want to test it myself. However, it is a small product, so I do not know whether to take the jump or not.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So, those are just 6 of my wishes from the endless list I would like.

What's on my iphone? + Twitter!

Whats on my iPhone 4s?! 

I'm certainly a nosey person! I love to read and watch videos/blogs about peoples lives and their surroundings, I love to compare and find why I can improve for myself. 

My lock screen: 


I love insperational quotes, and quite recently, this one has really hit home. My school life hasn't been good and neither has my social life. So this makes me smile and inspires me for the day, my lock screen is either a quote, or a photo I really like of people I love. (Friends, family etc)

Home screen:

 
I don't really visit this page, now I can just swipe up on my lock screen to take a photo, if I want to make it sassy and jazzy I will just visit my photos section. On this page is my main utilities, I put them in order of most used. 

2 page:

On this page it starts with my blogging section:
I have the app- blogger- my platform and I use it to write on the go, I also have bloglovin to read other blogs when I please. 
The next few apps I have is social media- the usual. 
Then my favourite shopping apps, boots newlook, river island, eBay and Starbucks. I also have QVC, an app that has high end brands on a deal at a cheaper price. 


3rd page:

My games! 

I know, some of them are sad- but I need some games for when I cannot reach wifi and am round relatives homes! 

4th page:

My random apps, things that I randomly download and are not in a certain category. I may use them often, or hardly at all, it depends the time and month. 


The bottom bar:

My phone dialling thingy- self explanatory
My text messages- self explanatory 
Safari- again, self explanatory
itube- I was lucky, I managed to download the old version, before it was removed, so I could 'catch' music and play it without internet. Woop!


Now:
I have joined twitter! Wooh!

Go follow me for my updates and most recent blogging things!

REVIEW: Maybelline Baby Lips Electro - Pink- UK

 Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pink
 
 
The Maybelline Baby Lips Electro series hit the stores on July 1st in the UK, having read hype and excitement about these products, I decided to go into Superdrug on the 2nd and buy one for myself.
My first impressions in store; I noticed the section where they were on sale straight away, they were hung up on a cardboard rack thing with bright colours, you couldn't miss it. I had seen 5 colours in the series all over the fashion blogging world, but was slightly disappointed when my local store only had two types of the lip balms. The two colours were the ones I was most interested in, however I did want to compare all 5.
 
 
 
 
The two colours were quite similar, pinks. The one I chose is hot pink, whereas the other one was more coral pink. Since I couldn't swatch in store, I chose the safest option, hot pink, because I knew it matched my skin tone. For the price of £2.99 I can't complain, as these bad boys are certainly a daily must for me! I love the price, its so inexpensive and worthwhile!
 
The lip balm moisturises my lips and tints them so well at the same time! It also gives my lips a nice smell, its divine! The smell is delicate, but to die for! I always smell it before I apply.

Without flash


With Flash

The colour is lovely and buildable, my lips are moisturised with just one swipe on each lip, the colour is certainly seen, but it is slightly lighter then when you build it up. I just simply build it up and it looks like a glossy/shiny lipstick, you don't even need that many swipes- who swipes their lip balm just once anyway?!
The colour does fade after awhile, but I still have a light tint and I just reapply when my lips are dry again.
 
I give the lip balm 5 stars out of 5, due to it being a perfect shade and everything I need for day to day use- such as school. Well done, Maybelline, I will certainly be rebuying!
 
 
 
What ones of the collection do you guys have?
 
 
Love Paige xxx

REVIEW: Simple oil balancing moisturiser

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Quick Note~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm sorry I have not posted, I had a load of exams and been really busy. I have decided to close my YouTube and decided to concentrate on my blog first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Recently, my oily zones of my combination skin have been really oily and shiny. I wanted a moisturiser that calmed down my oil zones and moisturised my dry patches. I didn't want a moisturiser that removed my oils (because of my dry patches), and I didn't want a rich moisturiser to add oils to my oily skin. So when I read this 'oil balancing' moisturiser, I thought why the hell not.
I got this at £2.25 due to a mix up, however the original price is £4.25.

 
If this was £2.25, I would re buy this every time. My oily patches has certainly balanced itself up and it's not as shiny as it was or as oily- mind you I have only been using it for 5 days. My dry patches have slightly improved. For £4.25, I might have to consider buying this again. My dry patches haven't changed much for a moisturiser.
 
You don't need much to cover your face, but there is about a third of air in the bottle.
I would recommend this for combo to oily and oily skin types.
 
Love
