Super Simple Summer Snack

Hey Guys!

This healthy snack is the quickest and easiest thing ever! 

It's absolutely delicious and takes 5 minutes to prepare.

Start by gathering lots of different fruits and vegetables.

Wash and cut them all however you like.

Put them on a plate.

Cut up cheddar chunks (to eat with your grapes).

Grab some sauces/spreads like salted caramel sauce or peanut butter to eat with your apples etc.

Have an ice cold glass of water on the side too to keep you hydrated.

You can change or add anything to suit you!

It's really flexible but also really filling and super healthy so instead of grabbing those crisps or chocolate, just grab some fruit and make something a lot nicer and more nutritional!

What are your favourite simple, healthy snacks.

ENJOY!

See you later!

L'Oreal True Match Foundation | Review

Hey guys!

I recently bought this foundation and I felt like reviewing it so that's what I'm doing now I guess.

For the past few months I have just stuck to very light coverage with a simple BB cream and concealer but I decided to finally get myself a new, much needed foundation. I had seen so many people rave about this and even both my mum and sister used this so that's what I decided on.

I was actually with two of my friends and this foundation was 3 for 2 and they offered colour testing so all three of us got our colours tested and bought these together so we each payed a third less which was a bonus!

My colour turned out to be yellow. It's called 'Golden Natural" and it's very yellow but it matches really well and looks so natural.

The foundation is quite runny but not too runny making it incredibly easy to apply and blend. It also feels extremely light on my face so it's not cakey at all and it looks and feels as if I'm not wearing any make up.

It is a medium coverage foundation which is perfect for the not too bad skin days where you still want to cover up redness and blemishes as well as giving your skin a flawless finish. It's not too strong but if you are more self conscious about your skin and you prefer high coverage than it is buildable.

It stays on really well too but needs a bit of help from a good powder which for me at the moment is the Rimmel Stay Matte powder in 005. The powder really helps keep a matte look and stops the foundation from melting/sweating off in the heat of the summer.

I would definitely recommend this foundation and it's really good value for money so go check it out and tell me what you think.

What's your favourite foundation at the moment? Let me know in the comments.

See you soon!

June Favourites

Hey Guys!

I have no excuse. I think this is the billionth time I've apologised for not posting and I'm sorry for that.

I have got a new blogging notebook which you will see in this post and I have got a whole blogging section where I am planning and scheduling future posts so lets hope that will keep me more organised.

Since June has come to an end (how has it gone so fast?), I have got a June favourites for you because I've been loving a lot this past month.

I've gone to the extra effort of organising these into categories.

First, Clothes and shoes.

 This is a button up crop top I got from Sweden. I love the pattern and it goes so well with high waisted shorts or just ordinary shorts and white converse.

 My friend got me this crop top for my birthday and it's from new look and I love it!

I don't wear jeans very often because I'm more into leggings (they are sooooo comfy) but I really like these skinny jeans from Hollister.

White converse. This is the holy grail of all shoes.

 I'm a bit obsessed with these nike trainers. THE COLOURS UFSGASJAA.

These pyjamas are also some of the cutest things I've ever owned. The top and shorts came in a set from primark (I get all my pyjamas from primark because they are adorable) and they were only £5. It reads "FRIES BEFORE GUYS" which I love a lot.

 Okay, these sandals are from new look and I had to buy these in an emergency shoe situation. My old vans killed my feet because they were too small for me but I still chose to wear them (why?) and basically I couldn't walk at all so I had to buy these and to be honest, I'm so glad I did because they are really comfy and cute.

Makeup

The sleek brow kit. This took a couple of tries for me to get used to but I'm a bit obsessed now. I have thick, dark eyebrows so trying to do something with them is such a chore but this looks really natural and it's so easy to use. I have it in dark brown.

This is the Rimmel Stay Matte powder and it's soooo good! It doesn't look cakey at all and it keeps my make up on for the whole day even on a hot day when my make up likes to melt off my face. I have it in 005.

I'm in love with this foundation. It's the Loreal True Match foundation and it's in the colour Golden Natural which is pretty yellow but matches my skin colour really well so basically I have yellow skin and I don't know why... By the way, it looks really dark and orangey in the photo but I promise it isn't actually like that but my camera made it look weird.

Random Beauty

I also got this for my birthday and it's basically a body spray by soap and glory but it's the small version so it fits in my bag really well.

This is a pocket sized oil blotting sheet pack from Superdrug. It works really well and is really handy for days after PE when I can't be bothered to carry my powder around with me.

This is an extremely thick body cream by Nivea. The thickness makes it a bit difficult to spread and rub into your skin but it keeps your skin really soft and smooth for ages.

My sister bought this nail varnish when she went to america a few years ago and I love it so much. It's bright pink which is already great but it's also matte which makes it a million times better!

When you have as much hair as I do and it's frizzy like mine, argan oil is a must have. There's not much else to say apart from this is a life saver for me.

My face decides to get extremely oily in the summer but drier than the sahara desert in the winter so an oil balancing face wash makes everything so much easier. It's also by simple which means it agrees very well with my sensitive skin.

I've recently done a post on this but it's basically a facial steamer. If you're interested in finding out more, check out my other post on it.

Completely Random

I also got these for my birthday from my friend who went to america. These are mini candles by Bath and Body Works and they smell AMAZING. I'm burning the Caribbean Escape one as I'm typing this and my room smells like heaven and it's incredibly summery so there's nothing to no like about these.

 This is the notebook I was talking about at the beginning. I'm a complete stationary freak and my bedroom is filled with notebook yet every time I see a notebook when I'm out, I have to buy it. They are filled with plans, schedules, ideas and countless amount of lists. I have a list problem. I write at least 10 a day. It's an issue.

This case is adorable and it was only £1 from eBay so this is amazing!

These two drinks are my new obsession. The Arizona Green Tea is an american thing and I recently found it in a massive american section of Tesco which I LOVE. It's really sweet but refreshing.

The almond milk is just my favourite thing ever. I have a mug of it next to me right now and I'm drinking it 24/7.

Last but not least, I have two things that are sort of linked. The first thing is a youtuber that I have been watching for a while  but have recently become even more obsessed. Her name is Cambria and has a channel called breelovesbeauty. She does videos on beauty, fitness and general life stuff. It's mostly the fitness part I have become obsessed with as well as her as a person. I find her really inspirational and I have really taken on board her tips to create a healthier lifestyle for myself.

She also recommended a website and youtube channel called ToneItUp which I have also become obsessed with and is my second thing. It's basically a whole fitness thing and I love it! Check it out to see what I'm talking about.
