Eye makeup: how much is too much?

Eye make up is pretty much essential if your going to wear foundation. But lately, a lot of girls have been "abusing" eye makeup and have been wearing way too much! Of course, it depends on where your going, what your wearing and what time of day it is, but no one should have eyeliner up to their brows for school! To be honest, liquid/gel liner is not necessary for an everyday look. A simple waterline with a pencil and some mascara should be fine. What do you think? Leave comments below :D

trends for summer 2012

I cant wait for summer! its all i think about! i have a fair idea of what trends are going to be in and im pretty sure i know the colours that will be big!
soft pastel colours such as baby pink, baby blue, pinkish orange and pale pinkish red will definatly be in. some bold colours such as blue, orange and red may creep their way into some outfits this year for an outstanding extra pop of colour, but i like to keep it safe and to be honest i never go for the extra pop.

big flowy tops should be in trend. ripped denim shorts and tight fit tank tops. gladiator sandles, converse, keds and regular pumps and ballet flats.
big chunky neckalces with quirky pendants, beautiful big chunky bracelets. cute little stud earings and long feather earrings should come back. also, i have a inkling that the whole 'tucking shirts in to jeans/shorts/skirts' will come back. almost 80's style.
Big, volumous, tousled hair is definatly in! the dry look and not the glossy look. you can achive this by using a dry shampoo (ill do a post on this soon).

alot of posts on weheartit.com show some of the ideas i have in mind.

Maybeline New York: One by One Volume Express review

Maybeline New York One by One Mascara- €8.00

This mascara has to be one of the best mascaras i have EVER used!!
it totally gives you extreme volume and never ever ever clumps your lashes! in between each large bristle there is another really small one so every lash get covered! if you can see the tiny bristles on the brush youll understand :)

to be honest, thats all i have to say! this is one of the best mascaras i have ever used :)

Why sleep is important :)

Well, 3 days of midterm left. And strive is on saturday and im meant to sleep over at my friends house on saturday after strive so thats saturday gone, and sunday ill be wrecked from not getting good sleep on saturday. To be honest, i really dont want to go to strive any more. My sleeping pattern is all over the place. Im tired all the time. Bleugh. Im sick of this crap now. Im not going to strive, im not bothered, cause all i want is to get 8 hours sleep at reasonable times. I want to go asleep at 11pm and wake up at 7am. I want a good weekend. One of my resolutions was to fall into routine you know :) and another was to lose weight and if you dont have a good sleeping pattern it makes losing pounds harder and harder. All of you effort is reversed. So whenever your next school/work holiday is, try to get as much sleep as you can to get the most of your free time! Nothing is fun when your eyelids feel heavy and your energy level is down.
Reasons why sleep is sooo important:
•skin can break out
• hair becomes greasy/over dry and brittle
•dark circles under your eyes
• wrinkles will appear on your face earlier
•harder to lose weight
•not enough energy
•harder to concentrate

And thats only a few. Sleep is as essential as water. One can only go about 10 days with no sleep without serious, life threatening damage to your health.
I hope i helped :)

How to: Fishtail braid

Its time to shrug  off the winter layers and step into spring and summer.
one of my favourite hairstyles for summer is the fishtail braid.
its really easy and it keeps you hair out of your way.
 i think the best part of this braid is the fact it looks really complicate to do but is actually so easy!   hope you enjoy :)
