Patricia's Selfridges Meetup & IMATS Makeup Haul | NARS | REAL TECHNIQUES | NYX



Hey Loves,

Just wanted to share with you all my latest video where I attended the gorgeous Patricia Bright's - previously known as BritPopPrincess' Meetup!

The turnout was EPIC!

So happy with how it all went and I can honestly say that what you see with Patricia on screen is what you get in real life.

After the meetup we had a meal and I can honestly say I had a blast. *thank you again hun if you're reading this*

On Saturday I also attended IMATS with Nji, whom also does YT and we had too much fun.
It felt weird bumping into people that you "know" from watching them but that may not have a clue as to who you are. lol.

All the ladies I met were lovely! So down to Earth, humble n funny. I don't have to tell you they were looking too pretty - you can see that for yourself!lol.

Anywho, Hope you enjoy watching my footage and I'll see you on my next vid!

Thanks guys x

The beginning of the end - relaxed to natural hair journey


Hey loves,

So after 15 years of my creamy crack addiction, I've decided to see whether I wanna battle the relaxed to natural hair. My original hair is soft and was a light brown with blonde baby hairs (so random lol), but I begged to have it relaxed and permanently straight when I was younger and my Mum let me.
However, now older and wiser, I don't really want to use chemicals on my hair anymore, and feel that I want to embrace my hairs natural form.
I know it will be a emotional journey, I always say I am not my hair, but if we are honest the media doesn't exactly praise and promote afro hair.

Having watched a few vids on YT I have managed to locate Palmers Olive Oil - Sulfate and Paraben free hair shampoo - cannot wait to try it.

The pic below you can see my natural waves coming through as I haven't relaxed in a hot min.

So - watch this space - and lets see how this journey goes.

Will I ever go back to the creamy crack?

Matchy Matchy nails and lips!

Hey dolls,

SO - Have been going a bit mad recently in the beauty hauling department.
I fell in love with the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine polishes when I purchased "Guava" - and had to get more.
Prickly Pear has to be my ultimate fave from the range so far. (5 and counting!lol)
Then on another trip, I came across Revlon's "Pink Pout" - and fell in loveee!
It's so divine.
When my OH took me away to Birmingham we took a surprise trip to MAC, and he pointed out a lippy he thought I'd like. I wasn't too sure - but it was so lush! By the time I decided I wanted it the tills had closed :( 
But ever since then, I've been in love with colours similar ever since. I will defo be going back to MAC to get the colour I tried though. lol.

Back in love with MAC...


Hey loves,

Hope you're all enjoying your Saturday. 
I'm currently ill so can't film so decided to blog instead! lol.
Here's todays look as I popped out this morn to go buy more paracetamol...
As the title would suggest - I've fallen back in love with one of my old faves -

MAC STUDIO FIX POWDER.

I'm in love again. 
Decided to not bother with fluid foundation today (really couldn't be arsed) and remembered why I never used it often before. I don't need it - but I like it! lmfao.

Anywho, think I'll be using my old faithful more often.

Hope you're all well.

New beauty additions...


NEW BEAUTY BUYS!

Hey ladies,

SO - 

Made the mistake of popping into my beloved Superdrugs solely for the beauty blender, but ended up leaving with all these bits. smh.

I picked up another Maybelline mascara (cannot get enough of this product!), ANOTHER Fix Me Up spray (loves it!) and then thought I'd try out the face masks (the flavours sounded Yummy!) lol.
Last but not least, another Sleek Blush. This time in Coral. 
Life's a peach is still my ultimate fave though. lol.

What have you been buying ladies? x

What I wore today - camo chic



Heyyy!...

So we're finally (Well us London ladies) are finally getting to see a lil sun so when Mr suggested we go to the park - I took full advantage and we headed out. It was nice to finally put on sandals and only have to pull on one outer layer! lol.

Simple outfit choice, great company, good weather = a very happy lady! lol...

Before I go ladies, be sure to check out my YouTube channel - uploaded my SECOND GRWM and OOTD vid! x

Watch me get ready - round 2

An Oldskool moment...


Was going through all my shoes (I really do have TOO many - it's becoming way out of hand now!)

Came across these babies - I've had them for yearssss but they'd hardly been worn (SMH) so pulled em on and headed out - LOVE EM!

The iridescent paneling is SO ME!

So glad I got em when I did. 

My ever growing neon addiction... - accessories


Just a few neon elements that I own and love.
