Hey,
I thought I would put together a few things I have been lusting over, and wouldn't mind finding under the tree this Christmas!

Positivity Wednesday #1
Hey,
I thought I would do a little series of positivity quotes. We all need a little boost once in a while and as I'm getting so close to the end of my course the stress and negativity is starting to show.
Such a simple quote that can have so much meaning!

D is for Dissertation!!
Hey,
As a 3rd year this is a scary word and is rarely said! Even writing this is making me feel stressed just thinking about it but I thought it would be the best time to do it as you will get a true insight into what it takes to do one!
I have to do a 8000 word literature review.
I had thought of my topic before coming into 3rd year as I knew I wanted to do something neonate based but this got changed due to not being able to narrow it down enough. I now have my topic and I'm crossing everything that I don't have to change it again. The one thing to remember when you do it is that every supervisor wants something slightly different so it's very difficult to talk about it with friends because their supervisor may want something done in a different way and it gets extremely confusing and you start doubting yourself.
It's all about pleasing your supervisor.
The longest part of this whole thing is getting all the information to write it and in my eyes is the most stressful but mine is finally starting to come together and with the first section of 500 words done its a massive weight lifted!
The main thing with this is organisation; get yourself organised from the beginning!!
This is something that takes up a lot of your life for 6 months so priorities your time well and before you know it will be done....I'm hoping!

Makeup Bag Treasures!!
Hey,
Over the past few months I have been experimenting with products; finding out what I like and what I don't and making my everyday makeup bag full of products I would be happy to see when I'm in a rush. When I say rush I mean when I have slept to much and I'm going to have to sacrifice something to get out the door on time!
Base - I have tried so many primers it's ridiculous, but I think I have found one which I will be repurchasing time and time again. The No7 Beautifully Matte Base works a treat at keeping my oily skin at bay!
Foundation - I have picked Revlon ColorStay as my foundation for many reasons! The main one being I can miss out on powder. For someone with VERY oily skin but very sensitive this is my favourite. I never have time to do a full skincare routine in the morning so use cleansing wipes. I have been using hypoallergenic ones but still I'm red faced and this is just the right coverage to hide it in a hurry!
Concealer - Collection Lasting Perfection every time! For no other reason than the coverage.
Blush - Rimmel Lasting Finish Mono Blush. I love this blush as you can't really go wrong with it. I don't have time to be correcting clown cheeks when I have 2 minutes to get out the door.
Brows - Now this isn't always used; it really depends on the time I have but if I was to open my bag in a hurry and I had time I want to see Makeup Revolutions Brow Kit. This is a great product and has everything I want in one place including a mirror to get up close so I can see what I'm doing.
Eyeshadow - I wear eye shadow on a daily basis so to save hassle on choosing what to shade; I like them all in one place. This Makeup Revolution Salvation What You Waiting For palette is perfect with 18 shades to pick from and the stay power cant be faulted!
Mascara - My mascara has to be waterproof but I'm not a very loyal when it comes to mascara; I don't think I have ever actually repurchased a mascara straight after it has ran out! I'm currently using Maybelline Great Lash which is very good value for money!
Powder and lip sticks are applied on the go
