BLOGTOBER DAY 31: ROUND UP

Wow I made it to day 31 of blogtober! I am so pound I managed to complete another year I think it helped that I planned a lot in July/August as I had time. I like this years content but it did get harder at the end to think of what to write about without it becoming repetitive but I got there.

Instagram was hard to get likes on as it's not a good app anymore I don't know if people see my photos and just don't like them but I don't think my photos are bad or if they're being hidden? also a lot my followers don't really like my posts but they can like other peoples who don't need anymore likes. I am lucky if I get one or 4 likes now I've kinda of given up with it and just post anything whenever. I get more views on stories even though I only post pictures and don't speak or have the swipe up feature.

I did get 3 comments this year which is good! but to be honest I find it hard to comment on other blogs and interact with people online the blogging community is a tricky one to be in. I will continue blogging and sharing content on here regardless of numbers or if anyone actually reads/likes my posts because it keeps me occupied and I do enjoy it.

I hope you enjoyed this years blogtober! and stick around for more content throughout November and December.

Thanks for reading.

BLOGTOBER DAY 30: OCTOBER MAKEUP AND SKINCARE EMPTIES

Welcome to day 30 of blogtober! today's post is all my makeup and skincare empties! have you used any of these? let me know.

Aldi Hot Cloth Cleanser

This hot cloth cleanser is good it removes makeup well and my skin felt cleansed and fresh. It lasted for ages and if I go to Aldi again I'll see if they still have it. It smelt nice which is good! not like other ones I've used in the past. It was gentle on the skin as I have sensitive skin you never know if things are going to work.

Primark PS Love Rose Perfume
This smells so nice and isn't strong or overpowering, it doesn't last long but it's still a good perfume for the price of £3.50. They have some good perfumes so check out Primark.

Soap And Glory Fab Pore
This was gifted to me in April as part of the babes of glory campaign anyway I wasn't overall keen on this and I wouldn't buy it again. I didn't like the feel of it on my skin and it made my makeup look cakey.

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation In Light Porcelain
I got this in the factory shop because it was half the price in Boots/Superdrug I've used it before and I do like it. It goes on well, gives good coverage and doesn't look cakey. I try to get the shade light porcelain but if I can't I'll get ivory.

Original Source Hydrating Water Infusions Raspberry And Rose Water
This smelt so good! I will be buying this again it was a nice fresh scent and it wasn't over powering at all. I will be trying the other scents too and re buying this one when it's on offer.

Thanks for reading.

I got the grey frame from Wilko and the 3 white ones are from Poundland which are the right size for the frame but aren't that good.

BLOGTOBER DAY 25: MY AUTUMN MAKEUP

Welcome to day 25 of blogtober! today I am sharing my autumn makeup. What are your favourites for autumn? let me know.

I Heart Revolution Peanut Butter Cup Palette

This has some really nice shades perfect for autumn there's a good choice of shimmers and mattes. I like the packaging it's funky and the chocolate makes it stand out. There's 18 shades which I think is good for the price. I am going to try some new palettes soon as there's so many I want to try.

Revolution Concealer Shade C3
The best concealer ever it gives good coverage, blends well and is really affordable! well the whole revolution range is so check it out!. There's lots of shades to choose from which is good as sometimes brands don't have much choice.

Rimmel Fix & Perfect Primer
My go to primer the best one ever! all the other ones I've tried haven't been good and I always re-purchase this one!. This goes on easily, feels good and doesn't look cakey when you apply foundation and it lasts all day!.

CYO The Thick Of It Mascara
When seventeen got discontinued CYO came out and I got recommend their mascara and I love it! but now sadly CYO are being discontinued next year :( sad face I don't know what I'll do when it goes. I am going to try and stock up on a few.

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation In Light Porcelain
I've been using this match perfection foundation which I found in the Factory Shop (my store doesn't really have much choice of cosmetics) anyway I bought this for £5 and it gives a nice coverage and doesn't look cakey. I've used this before and I get on fine with it but I don't have a all time favourite foundation. I'm yet to find it!. This contains SPF 20 and comes in a pump form so you can remove the lid which is easier to see how much is left.

Thanks for reading.

BLOGTOBER DAY 24: AUTUMN CRAFTS

Welcome to day 24 of blogtober today's post is autumn crafts

I already had the jar so rather than have it sit there I decided to cover it in leaves and put in fairy lights which I got from a charity shop.

I picked up these wooden hearts at a boot sale for 50p! and I decided to cover them in leaves I got at the works for £1 for 50. I think it looks very autumnal and the leaves look good!.

I already had the frame so I decided to stick leaves to it but you can see the glue which is annoying but oh well it still looks ok.

Thanks for reading.

BLOGTOBER DAY 21: ST IVES FRESH SKIN APRICOT FACE SCRUB REVIEW

Welcome to blogtober day 21! today's post is a review on the St Ives apricot face scrub I picked up in Superdrug. Have you tried St Ives face scrubs? let me know! or any of their other products.

I just finished the Aldi lacura face scrub which I loved! and wanted to get another one to try so I picked up this St Ives one. I saw it on offer in Superdrug because I wasn't sure if I'd like it so didn't want to spend a lot. I love fruity scents and this has a real apricot smell! and is gentle on the skin. It exfoliates well and leaves skin feeling clean and fresh I have sensitive skin so I wasn't sure if this would irritate but it doesn't which is good!.

This scrub deeply exfoliates and is 100 % natural exfoliants and it removes impurities for glowing skin. A little goes a long way so don't squeeze out too much! the tube is 150 ml which is enough and it is also oil free. You can pick up a range of different scrubs for different skin types and ones for specific things such as acne, blackheads., blemishes and gentle smooth skin. I will definitely be re purchasing this face scrub and I also might try a different scent! let me know if you try it or if you've tried any other ones.
