November Favourites

Can you believe November is over already and we're now practically in the month of pigs in blankets and fairy lights?!  This month's favourites appear to be quite Topshop and Maybelline heavy. Strange, because these are two brands which I have never been overly fussed by but seem to be making their mark in my make up bag.

Autumn Favourite: MAC Whirl.

No matter how many times "you do not need any more lipstick" whizzes through my mind as I manically swatch every nude and bright available to me on the beautifully displayed MAC Lipstick stand, "OK, one more won't hurt" always seems to prevail.

Staying Fit and Healthy at University

These 1KG weights are from Primark.  You can buy amazing quality products for such reasonable prices, being a 'poor student' is no longer an excuse for being unhealthy!

Hi Guys!

Remember this when you're feeling overwhelmed...

Even your beloved laptop can seem like the devil when you're feeling overwhelmed.  Shut the lid and go for a walk.

We all have times where everything seems to be piling up on us, whether it be school or uni work, family life or just those little niggling jobs that never seem to get done; at times it can start to feel a little overwhelming.  If you're finding yourself in the midst of one of these moments and it seems as though it will never end, here are a few little reminders to help you stay focused and relieve stress.

Everyday University Face

Today's post features my 5 minute university face.  Although there may seem like an hours worth of products here, I promise that they're incredibly easy to blend, buff, smudge and coat.  It is pretty much in the student job description that you must have the ability to lie in bed until the very last minute, but still look 'relatively' presentable when you eventually roll up to uni.
