E.L.F Haul

E.L.F Haul/ Review

So I ordered and reviewed e.l.f products before and loved them, so I thought I would try out more of there products. I took a look online and found a few bits that I really wanted to try out so these are the things I ordered...

Lip Exfoliator clear - This lip exfoliator just smells like the one they do in Lush, it smells amazing, so when its starting to get cold your lips dry up a lot!, I've been using the lush lip scrubs for years and thought I would give e.l.f's exfoliator ago as its slightly different, the lush lip scrub product is in a little pot and you can get loads of different smells and colours, the e.l.f one comes in a lipstick container in two different colours. I like the product as lipstick exfoliator as it's a lot easier to apply if your out and about, the lush lip scrubs you have to stick your hand in and apply it on your lips and you can the remaining product on your hands and if you don't carry tissues or wipes then your kinda stuck, so this e.l.f exfoliator is a lot handy when you go out. But I do love the lush lip scrubs they smell so good.

Jumbo lip gloss stick - In the nude
So I've tried lip crayons before and never liked the product on me. I found the jumbo gloss sticks on the e.l.f website and thought they look like a jumbo crayon so I gave them ago and this colour is so nude you can barley notice it anyway, so if you like that look then this ones for you.

Jumbo lip gloss stick - Sangria starters
This shade goes on a lot better than the nude, this shade is a neutral none heavy wine berry, this product glides on straight away and its not sticky which is a big bonus for a gloss stick. This product is good to wear if you don't feel like wearing heavy makeup, I prefer this to the nude shade.

Nostalgic lipstick -
This product goes on straight away! it reminds me of the MAC Myth shade as it's pretty much the same shade and thickness.
I highly recommend this lipstick if your thinking of ordering a lipstick off of e.l.f.
The container of this product is pretty basic, it's a grey lipstick case with a slight bit in the middle which is see through which you can see the colour of your product. The lipstick it's self is a light nude pink, which is great for summer and also autumn.

Lipstick pen gloss - Maple sugar

These lipstick pen glosses comes in a clear tube, which you twist a lot to get the product out, so really its good if you have a child who love's to grab your makeup as they wont be able to get any of the product out. This maple sugar shade is a pretty neutral shiny clear pink which is nice to wear alone or even on top of a lipstick. So if you want a nude look then try this one out!

Conditioning  lip balm - Melow melon

This comes in a nice packaging, it feels nice and creamy, very moisturizing also really pigmented, this is one of my favourites I ordered on the e.l.f website. I don't always feel like wearing a lipstick if I have dry lips or if its too hot it will just melt off and this is brilliant. Its a lip balm tint with a really nice pink shade which will make your lips look nice and also keep them nice and healthy.

Eyebrow kit - Medium

It does what is says online!, gives you fuller thicker and more defined brows. My eyebrows aren't in bad shape at all, I just like touching them up abit to make them slighter darker, I love the gel and the brown powder, I thought the powder looked really light in the pallete but actually its the right shade I need and I love it .

Lengthening & defining mascara

My favourite 2 parts of make up are lipsticks and mascara!  I had to try thr e.l.f mascara. The brush is small which applies amazingly to the bottom lashes. This gives you a natural looking length and it doesn't leave clumbs. Also doesn't leave your eye lashes sticking together, so if you like natural looks then try this one out.

I highly recommend all of these products by e.l.f, they have amazing products and they don't lie at all to say what the products will do, it says what they actually do! and that's what I love. I recommend you check the e.l.f website E.L.F out and try a few things out, I can honstley say you will love them!

Oranising a blog post

Organising a blog post

Hey bloggers/ visitors

I've been away for awhile now, moving in to a temp place, enjoying the sunshine and also got my dyed to blonde, good bye red!. I thought I would come and talk to you about planning and organising a blog post.

I had a trip in to my local town and thought I would start blogging again, I had a quick look around in Tesco, as I had to get something for my daughter. I came across these pastel coloured spiral notebooks, they have three coloured dividers to separate each post. I thought it would be great as a blogging book. You can add more dividers if you wanted to which is a big bonus.
It has a 19cm plastic ruler which is the same colour as your notebook, which is stuck in at the front which is very handy.
On the dividers it has see through pockets if you wanted to slide anything in, so I've made three different collages.
I stuck loads of different makeup for my makeup and beauty category, clothing items for my clothing category, also exercise cartoons and other healthy things for my health and fitness category.


This notebook is very organised and handy, I used it to write the blog post I'm typing now.
I also brought one of my favourite writing pens which reminds me back when I was in primary school practising my handwriting, which is the Berol paper mate handwriting pens.
I like to have a hot drink when it comes to writing/ typing out a blog, either a coffee or a green tea. So I went in to Wilkinson's and found see through mugs like the ones they have in costa coffee. These are made out of thick glass which I prefer to really thin glass mugs as I feel like they can break anytime i pour hot water in to them . I like to see what you are drinking so these are great! I also picked up a cute little grey butterfly sandwich tray which I use to put my hot drink on which looks super cute instead of a coster.

Writing up a blog in a notebook/notepad is a great way to plan what your going to say before you type it all up on your laptop/computer wasting time thinking what your going to type. So I highly recommend you to plan everything in a book then when your happy type it all up which wont even take long or even waste a lot of laptop battery. In my free time I like to write it all up either in a cafe and enjoy a nice mug of tea or even at home.

Blogging is great for everyone it's even better if your feeling stressed, depressed, want to get something off your chest, or even bored. It helps you get things off your mind and think about things you like and what you want to focus on.
If your thinking of getting in to blogging and don't know what to base your blog posts on then think to yourself could I base it on...

• Sports
• Health ( Healthy eating, healthy lifestyle)
• Beauty
• Makeup
• Fashion
• Art
• Photography

or even helping people with different situations. If you like any of those, then i'm sure you could get in to blogging, think what bloggers inspire you and research the things you like then I'm sure you will get so many ideas on what to do for a blog post.

I started with health & beauty then fashion then I focused on healthy living and thinking how to keep myself nice and healthy since I had a kid. You need to keep yourself healthy to make your kid nice and healthy too.

Any way that is all from me, I hope I helped with your blogging ideas  and also hope you check out the few products I meantioned I used while I'm blogging. Thankyou for reading, hope you cheack out my other blogs, leave me a comment or leave me a message if you would like advise or even talk about what really intrestes you.
