He aint nothing but a hound dog!

Bonjour Bloggers!
So can you remember one of my first posts was just a life post and I said I had been to see the last Harry Potter.
I took this picture a couple of days before and forgot to upload it but as I was uploading it. This seemed the perfect time to do my dog post. So lets crack on!!

My doggy is called Elvis and he a miniature cockapoo (funny name I know). It's a cross between a cocker spaniel and a miniature poodle. He has black fur with a white tummy. He is super cute. He loves long walks. I like putting hats on him but we don't dress him up in cloths even though I would love to.So here is the picture.

Sunday Summery!

Bonjour Bloggers!
So this is the second time I have posted twice in one day in a row so I'm on a blogging roll. I probably wouldn't have posted again today but as I wanting to start doing Sunday summerys as I was blogging it make life easier really. So if you don't know what blogging summerys i't just a summery of the day of the week and just telling your blog readers what been happening really and how you feeling. In this post I also going to tell you what coming up on my blog as well. 
Face masks- Been loving face masks at the moment and I like DIY ones as well as one brought from shops this is me with a yoghurt face mask on good for scars and moisturising the skin.

 Posing- I have never put a picture of me on my blog before so I just thought I would show you me really yes I am posing which my mum laughed at me for but never mind.
Bags - I am addicted to bags and i have over 60 bags at the last count I know I must chuck some away but i love them all so much this my latest one. It's just a cheap one from primark but I love the floral and it is quite vintage looking plus the hook closing thing is really easy to open and close.

Coming up - I am thinking about doing a haircare post and a skin care/ skin routine post so please comment and tell me what you think.

Lush - Dragons egg!!

Bonjour Bloggers!
Loving blogging at the minute and I can't stop but because I have not been having too much time lately I will be posting every chance I get. In London we got some time to shop and when there is a Lush you can't resist can you??? I just picked you a few favourites as well as something new Dragon egg because I have never tried it before I thought I would write a little review and add in a few pictures.
 When I was in London I was really missing having a good soak with lots of different baths treats so when I ran straight to my room and got out my stash which running low.
 I picked out my new bath bomb Dragons egg it looked cool and the lady it was very glittery and I would look like a disco ball :/ I got it anyway
 This is the bath bomb half dissolved the water is half orange the white is like a foam and the darker orange is very glittery and lighter orange is like a mix of the white and dark orange.
This is the dark orange close up just to show you how glittery it was (I nearly dropped the camera in the bath so I hope you appreciate my dedication)
Bath bomb nearly done now all the water is pale orange and the bath is looking pretty and glittery the bath bomb took a while to dissolve which is a good thing.
This is my bath after I let the water out is was so glittery it was unbelievable so I had to was it out which was abit of a pain but over all I love this bath bomb it is defiantly one of my new favourite and I can't wait to have it again. The scent was citrus one of my favourite scents so no wonder I loved it.The lady was right when I came out I did look like a glitter ball but never mind.

Have you got the X Factor??

Bonjour Bloggers!
The X Factor has kicked off  and I was just wondering what everyone is thinking about it. Everything has changed but change can be good. So new judges the thing I was a little eek about because over the years the judges have slightly changed but this year they have had a complete makeover. My thoughts about Gary Barlow  I think Gary has taken Simon's place which my mum and auntie are thrilled with, I do like Gary but I miss Simon sort of but Gary has more fun on the panel. Kelly Rowland I love Kelly on the panel and I am not missing Cheryl or Dannii and think that Kelly has more character and has advice to give. Tulisa Contostavlos she is gobby but she admits it and thats what I like about her. People class her as a chav and a cheap version of Cheryl but I don't think that. She makes me laugh when watching the show. Louis Walsh! Well well well what can I say Louis will be there till the end he is part of the fixtures he loves everyone and there has to be a judge like that in every talent show. I prefer the new judges much more to the old one they are funnier and look like they are enjoying themselves more. The contestants on the past two shows have been well balanced. My favourite contestant has to be Craig from Liverpool who surprised his mum and dad or Janet from Ireland who sang Your song plus she had a great sense of style. Xtra Factor I'm loving Olly and Caroline and the presenters. They are good together and funny. Xtra Factor are showing some good stuff as well. So the X Factor has got thumbs from me this year but what about you please comment below and tell me what your thinking.

Film recommendations!!

Bonjour Bloggers!
My page view numbers have dropped quite alot I am blaming this on the fact that I have not been posting recently but please tell your friend or any other bloggers about my blog. If you like my blog please comment and follow. 

So there is nothing better than chilling out in your PJs while watching a nice film with friends and family here are some film recommendations maybe you have watched one or two but hopefully there is one that is new to you so enjoy!
The rebound - This is one i have just watched and I have to say its one I will be watching again. I love romcoms this is more comedy than romance but it is still good. The ideas of the film is that Sandy a house wife with two kids finds a video on her computer that changes her life forever. She files for divorce and moves to New York. She gets a job and starts dating but finds love with someone who she never expected. A good watch.

The proposal- I have watched this film many times with friends and family it's another Romcom (my favourite). The plot is that pushy boss Margaret visa is running out and she losing time fast. The last resort is a marriage as pushes her assistant Andrew in marriage as the go to Alaska to meet his parents a lots of twists and turns happen  it is packed with comedy and romance I would day there is a pretty equal amount of both.

The death and life of Charlie St Cloud- I don't know I never saw this film until last night it is amazing but before you watch it make sure stock up on tissues. Charlie and his brother have tragic car crash ending in the death of Charlie's brother Sam. Charlie never lets lets go of his brother and can see other dead people like his friends. People think that Charlie is crazy. The paramedic that saves Charlie's life after the crash tells Charlie that he was given a second chance and he need to find out why. The film is amazing and if you have not seen go and get it now!!!!!

Grown ups- If you cry any tears with this film they will be tears of joy and you probably will wet yourself as well it is so funny. Five best friends go there separate ways after school and lose contact but the death of their basketball coach brings them all together. They go on a country holiday to the lake where they used to go when they were little because Coach buzzer wants his ashes to be scattered there. They holiday is fun packed. I am 100% certain that this will make you laugh so hard your belly hurts.

So this post was a little different but I hope you liked it please comment and tell me what you think

Body lotion collection and reviews

Bonjour Bloggers!
I was abit stuck on what my next blog was going to be I had loads of ideas it was picking one! Then it came to me I can do a collection video i knew my biggest collection had to be my body lotions/butters. As I raced around my room looking for all my body lotions I never realised how may I had. I have 23 it might not seem like alot but that is excluding the ones i have lost and the ones that are all used up. I have repurchased some of the lotions and there is one I have twice (good job I like it).
So this the whole collection together bigger ones at the back and smaller ones at the front. Most of the minis came in sets that were bought as presents and to be honest I have only bought two myself that's because I am pretty stocked up but I love bath and body products so I am quite glad.

Theses are my favourites/ the ones that i use more often.
 Fcuk pure: This is a lightly perfumed body lotion. This is one of my favourites because it is very moisturising and has a nice clean/pure scent (hence the name Fcuk pure). It can be used at any time in the day but is best used after a bath or shower like most body lotions.
Clarins paris moisture rich body lotion: This body lotion has no perfume. It is for people with dry skin - very dry skin. It is a thick lotion and super hydrating. I don't have dry skin but it makes my skin super soft so if you do have dry skin i imagine if would be a big relief. This lotion is £29.99 which I think is over priced I didn't buy this but my mother did and she never used it and gave it to me. I would try other lotions first before buying this to see if anything else would work. For use in the morning and/or the evening.
 Johnson's baby lotion: Of course i have to mention Johnson's baby lotion it is a classic it works for anyone! It is amazingly prices and worth every penny. It can be bought from most shops. If you are looking for a nice a non fragrance lotion this is probably the one. It makes the skin feel super soft (like a baby's bottom). Best use is after a bath or shower.
 Simple after sun lotion: Even though this body lotion isn't a all the time use I had to include it in this post because it a summer essential. This is the sunburn buster!! It has alo-Vera in it to soften the skin plus some vitamins and NO perfume so it wont irritate the skin. It is simple just like the brand and if you put this on sunburn it takes away the redness and soothes the pain I defiantly recommend this to anyone who easily burns or anyone that is going away on holiday.
Fcuk polish whipped body cream: I prefer body creams/butters more than lotion I like the texture more and I think the feel nicer on the skin. This is perfumed but not to heavily and is a nice summer alternative to a strong perfume. The scent lasts for a long time on the skin. It is a very thick mixture. Best applied after a bath or shower to lock in moisture.
Soap and glory blueberry thrill body butter: So I have mentioned this in another post and it is my ultimate favourite body lotion/butter/cream. It is quite heavily perfumed and is very fruity. It is very thick. It is filled my natural antitoxidants and fruit acid to smooth the skin and lock in moister. I think this retails around £9 and it is worth every penny I love all the soap and glory product and if you have heard of the brand go and check it out on the boot website.

Nearly at the end! So really there is a body lotion for everyone unperfumed, perfumed, very dry skin and normal skin and there is scents for everyone too.

July favourites

Bonjour Bloggers!
slight change of plans in my earlier post today I said I was going to do a review of some soap and glory products but i have decided to do a July favourites post instead because this post can only be for a short amount of time so I better get cracking! (abit picture heavy)


 So this in no particular order my first favourite is Miss N Seduce perfume from next its was £6 I think. The sent is very strong and abit sophisticated but I still enjoys wearing it. It smell quite musky and i think is very likeable. 



 Another favourite is soap and glory body butter. This is the most amazing product in the world i absolutely love it! It smells very fruity ( a natural fruity) the body butter is named blueberry thrill. It is incredibly smoothing and best applied after a bath to lock in moister. Its not greasy and its amazing I would defiantly recommend this body butter. Sorry I don't know the price.

This lipstick looks incredibly red on the pictures but in real life its more of a pinky red. Its from Avon and its an anew youth-awaking lipstick, I didnt get it for those reasons I simply just liked the colour. Its very creamy and feels really nice it last for a decent amount of time but not for that long to be honest. I do like this lipstick and it's defiantly one of my favourites. Its was £10.50 a little pricey but I do love it.
So this one of the most recently bought products in this post but I do really like it. I have been wanting to try a dry shampoo for ages, because when growing your hair it best not to wash everyday so I haven't been I have been looking at some reviews and heard that batiste was a good brand. When I saw thing in Morrisons I had to pick it up, it's only a travel size and it was £1.49. Batiste dry shampoos can be brought from Asos, Morrisons, Tesco, Asda, Boots and Superdrug in the UK and places to buy them in the US  can be found on the website. I love this dry shampoo and will defiantly be buying more of the Batiste range.
I am a big fan of Lush and since we are off school I am enjoying taking a nice shower in the morning. This Lush product is placed in the bottom of a shower and it releases the sent when water is hitting. It is designed to make you more awake and it really refreshes you. The sent is very citrusy. I think it cost £1.99.

Thank you for reading

Today....

Bonjour Bloggers!
so I will be posting a review of some soap and glory product later but I just thought I give you a little update on what I've been up to today. On Monday I went to a large shopping centre about an hour from my house, on Tuesday I went to Tesco with my mum, today I went to a local shopping centre and later today I went to Morrisons  with my auntie. It seem like loads of shopping but I did spend that much most things I got were for school but I did get some nice little things for me.

 Right now I'm in my Pjs with a nice hot chocolate thanks for reading

Can't sleep......

Bonjour Bloggers!
I should probably saying Bonne nuit (good night) because it is 4:29am. 
I can't sleep!!!! 
Not being able to sleep is one of the most frustrating things in the world. I'm tired but can't drift off into one of crazy dreams. One of the worst things is I know I will be tired all day and probably be nasty to everyone because I'm tired. I will have big bags under my eyes and at this moment in time my hair is falling out the neat bun I put in last night. my legs are aching because I'm tired and it feels like I'm saying tired a heck of alot. This is actually i pretty pointless blog but what else is there to do at 4am in the morning ( I cant believe people get up this early in the morning). I would also like to apologise because there were some grammar issues in the last post    I know it drives some people mad. Thanks for reading I will make a post with pictures soon!

Welcome to my life ......

Bonjour Bloggers!
So as you know this my first blog and I think it is best if i just tell you abit about me and my blog! I have wanted to do a blog for such a long time but was so worried that people would leave horrible comments so i never started one. After watching a video made by Zoella and sprinkle of glitter i realised that this is my blog and if people dont like it well frankly then they dont have to read it but with that aside if you do like my posts then im over the moon. My blog will be about make-up, fashion, luxury bathing and just my life. 
Lets get started!

Today im going to post a sort of diary entry about what i got up to! This morning was just normal really i got and lounged around for a while till i looked at the clock and realised i needed to get ready. After a quick shower i got ready into leggings and a vest top (my favourite relaxing combo). Walking out of my door into a lovely sunshine i noticed a large net tent on my back garden and my dad shouting my name. I ran down the steps that lead to my garden my dad was holding one end of the tent and he asked me to push the sticky thing  thought the tent. Then i saw the fake grass mat on the decking then some golf clubs and finally a packet on golf tees i suddenly realised my dad had turned our garden into a golf driving range. The tent was to stop the golf balls from hitting the windows or the house. It made me and my brother chuckle as my dad was in full golf mood wacking balls into the tent with a printed target on the back. As i sit on the table to eat my brunch ( i wasnt up in time for breakfast) the sun was shining on back i was so glad i was off school. My little doggy Elvis was laid at my feet most likely because he wanted some of my food but i still felt like an dog whisperer.Lets be honest it want the most productive morning and i didnt get much done but never mind.I know that harry potter has been out in cinemas for quite a while but never really got round to see it. Most harry potter films i always go with my dad and this was no exception. In the car i enjoyed singing along to some tunes just like normal. Having a quick stop at McDonalds. Then i went to the cinema. I must say i nearly cried before it even started because it is the end of a set of amazing films that i love. The film is defiantly one of the best of the 8 film but still i cant decide which one i like best. I went to see the film in 3D but wouldn't say that many things popped out of the screen. It had a lovely ending but dont want to give too much away incase you havent seen it and you want to. I defiantly recommend this film (if you like harry potter). Going to the cinema was the biggest highlight of my day im just chilling now in my Pjs going to bed soon.

I really hope you like my post i enjoyed writting it.
So... bye for now
