Beauty Tips Every Girl Should Know!


(Mac Fix + Spray, Lush Eu Roma Toner Water, Real Techniques Beauty Blender, LA Girl Pro Concealer, The Balm Mary Lou Manizer) 

1) Clean Your Beauty Blender Regularly 
Dirt can build up on the sponge, so it's important to wash it every few weeks. I usually put mine in the washing machine and it comes out good as new!
2) Wet Your Brush For A More Intense Highlight 
You can use Mac Fix + spray, Rose Water spray or even just a splash of water (not too much though!) This makes your highlight more intense, and it also works to make glitter eyeshadows appear more pigmented. 
3) Use Concealer to Clean Up Your Eyeshadow/Eyeliner 
Want to achieve that crisp eyeshadow look that makes it look like you had your make up done professionally? Once you've done your eyeshadow, use concealer to clean up the fall out on the edge to give you that clean line. Blend away and you're done! 
4) Orange Concealer For Under Eye Circles?!
This is one of the best tricks I've ever learnt. If you suffer from dark circles under your eyes, or have had sufficient lack of sleep and want to appear more awake, this is perfect. I put a small amount of the orange concealer on before I do my make up, and it covers straight away with foundation and concealer. It stops your concealer from fading and the dark circles from showing through! (L'Oreal Nude Magique CC Cream Anti-Fatigue £9.99
5) Moisturise Before Doing Your Make-Up
It acts as a barrier between your make up and your skin, so your pores don't get clogged, and it also makes your skin look more dewy and fresh.

Affordable Valentine's Day Worthy Underwear

This is without a doubt one of the most gorgeous pieces of lingerie I've ever seen, and I'll let you in on a secret. It cost £20. Yes. £20. Many times I've trailed through Victoria's Secret heartbroken that I can't afford the lace bodysuits and teddies which are priced at £50-£60. I've found that ASOS is the perfect place for affordable, yet expensive looking, underwear sets, and this one is no exception. And with next day delivery available, if you haven't bought that special someone a gift yet, now is the chance!

Kourtney Kardashian Inspired Outfits

We've all probably seen the photo of Kourtney in the pink Yeezy jumper and thigh high boots. And who are we kidding, she looks amazing. She has quickly become one of the best dressed Kardashians! Her outfit choices lately have been phenomenal, so I thought I'd re-create two of them but on an inexpensive budget!

Boots: Asos, Jumper: Topshop, Leggings: Primark 

I got the jumper in a size 12 thinking it would already be quite baggy, but considering how tall I am it would never have served me as a dress like Kourtney's. This pink colour is so lovely and girly and I've seen it everywhere lately. My boots are also flats but heeled ones would work just as well! The jumper was £22 (£19.80 with student discount) and the boots were £45. I was really surprised at the price of the boots as all the other good quality ones I have seen have been £90 or more. They're suede and are so comfortable, and they have ties at the back which allows you to make them tighter. They go so well with any outfit, they're definitely a must if you don't get anything else!

Jumper: Primark, Leggings: Primark 

I didn't stumble on this photo of Kourtney until after I'd purchased this outfit but when I saw it I knew it would match! Co-ords are EVERYWHERE right now, and I think they actually look really nice together, especially when kept simple! I didn't really have any shoes to match the outfit though! This outfit is sooo inexpensive, the jumper was £12 and the leggings were £3!
