Trip to the doctors!

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere! 
yesterday i had a trip to the doctors because spring/summer is here which means i start suffering from serve hayfever so a doctors trip was necessary to keep it all under control. I love spring but it's always a drag having to take eye drops, nose spray and tablets to keep my hayfever at bay, but thats the way my body is so i'll have to live around it! 
Whilst i was at the doctors i also got acne cream because i usually get it bad on my chest, so to keep that away i have to continuously use it. 


Do you have a common illness/condition?

Hiya guys and gals of the blogosphere this is just a little post on my new camera i don't know if you noticed but alot of my post's I've used my phone to take photographs with even though i had a camera, unfortunately my camera broke and i was to busy to resolve that matter so my blog had to suffer with awful grainy pictures... until now because i have finally got a new camera, it's the same as my old one but because they couldn't repair it i have a new camera, his name is Lionel like my last one and i was sad to see him go :( R.I.P Lionel the first.
Hopefully my blog will improve alot more and look more professional, but i'm happy Amy for now :)

My Hair care Favorites!

My Hair care Favorites!
I have an obsession for looking after my hair, because i never used to take notice of how much damage i caused it but lately since my hair became dry i decided to take control of my fried mess of hair and did a no heat detox, i can honestly say it helped and now i continue to look after my hair using these products!
so firstly in my favorites is the Tigi bed Urban antidotes which i picked up from TKmaxx for £14.99  this is amazing and smells amazing my only problem with it is that it drys your hair out if you wash your hair alot, like i do, so to deal with this i use the Batiste to spruce up my hair when it needs it, i love the scent, the packaging and the actual product because it refreshes my hair and adds volume which is always a plus i picked this up for  £2.99.
The conditioner i use is herbal essences it has a fruity smell and makes my hair super super soft (i would link it but for some reason it doesn't exist on Google) i got this for a pound from pound land.
Another one of my favorites is the Tigi Shine blaster this stuff is amazing it does what it says it does and makes your hair ultra shiny it's great, i again picked this up from  TKmaxx  for  £7.99
lastly in my hair care favorites is the pro vitamin heat defense spray, this is about 70p from home bargains and pretty much does what it says my only problem with it is that you need to use alot of it but that evens it's self out because it inexpensive and sustainable.

St Ives scrub review!

so i'm obsessed with skincare products because i used to suffer with acne, and now although it's gone i still get 'teenage spots' which i obsess with getting rid of and taking care of my skin.
i have tried many different facial scrubs and i think this one beats all of them to a pulp, it smooths, hydrates and makes my skin super soft,  although i haven't saw any major changes with my skin using it only that it removes dead and dry skin and makes my skin feel like a primer would.
it has a sort of medicine like peach scent not a normal fresh peach smell, i'm really bad at describing if you didn't notice already, so basically if you haven't tried this i really suggest you do, and i'll keep you updated on how it works for me.

I *heart* nude nails!

nude nails! well although winters not over just yet i decided to go against the crowd and go for the nude look on my nails, just because days are dark doesn't mean your nails have to be! 
so here are the nail vanishes i used to achieve this look:
MeMeMe- long lasting gloss in shade 97 sensuous (Base)
Barry M- nail paint in shade 66 Matt white (for the heart)
Revlon-nail enamel in shade 910 Barely Peach. (as a sheer top coat)
I then used Fast and fruity nail polish removed to clean any smudges up because well we all make mistakes 
i'd also like to point out i absolutely hate doing my nails so i constantly make mistakes so my nail art isn't too great, this was just abit of a random post :)
Revlon- barely peach
Barry M- Matt white
Mememe-sensuous
Fast and fruity nail vanish remover

My handmade cushion!

This is Stuart  my little patchwork owl cushion, he took 4 hours to cut, handsew and put together.
he is a patchwork owl made from old pieces of fabric and buttons for eyes.
he isn't perfect but for my first attempt of making my own cushion for my bedroom i'm pretty proud of him.
of course i can't take all the credit for this little cutie because i had help from my boyfriend liam, he cut out the owl shape and contributed to some of the sewing so without my little helper it probably would have took me eight hours.
i'm a very crafty creative person anyways so this was just fun for me to do, but if your not a crafty person it's just as fun anyway.
i usually make my own jewelry and i'm thinking of doing some more crafty post's, if your a follower or just read my blog any feedback would be helpful.

Strawberry dream cream!

strawberry dream cream by n-spa is a product a got given but have fell in love with, it smells amazing and has a thick consistantcy that hydrates the skin, it has a cute description on the front label of the packaging which i'm guessing is a sort of copy of the philosophy skincare packaging, although this isn't as good as philosophy it's a pretty good body cream just to have as a treat or as a little goodie/gift for someone else,
plus it's also alot cheaper :)                                        




My Favorite perfumes!


hey guys, this blog post will be about my ultimate favorite scents/perfumes
so firstly my ultimate favorite perfume award goes to benefit 'laugh with me Lee Lee'
it has a light fresh smell, and seems to linger for awhile after it's been sprayed, i also love the packaging shown down in the pictures it has a door and the actual perfume bottle is supposed to look like a cocktail shaker, not only is it an amazing perfume it also is named after the nickname i use for my boyfriend 'Lee Lee'           so all in all it's my favorite.                                            



My second favorite is Katy Perry 'Meow' this has a deep sweet musk smell that can be abit much sometimes because of how sweet it does smell, it has the cutest packaging as shown in the pictures below it's a cat, i think because she calls her fans Katys Cats, it came with a little 'M' on its collar but unfottumately it broke off.


Third in my favorite's list is 'midnight fantasy  by Brittany spears, again if you don't like really sweet smells this perfume wouldn't be for you but i really like it.
i like alot of Brittany spears perfumes as you'll probably see by the end of this blog post.
i love the packaging it's a midnight blue with sliver spots and ring.

another one of my favorites is Brittany spears 'Curiosity' it has a lot less of a sweeter smell than the other Brittany spears scents, it has more of a clean smell but i really like this one too, the packaging isn't anything to rave about just a little blue bottle  but it's still a lovely little perfume to own.



 Kate moss's Lilabelle is one of my favorites in my list because it has a sweet smell but with a fresh edge to it, this is also really cheap to get hold of aswell so you can smell good and your purse can feel good too
the packaging is also really cute and simple with a plain bottle with a decorated lid, it reminds me of old fashioned perfume bottles.

lastly on my favorites list is not really a perfume but a body spray, it's one of the yummiest scents around and its Holister 'cresent bay' they do loads of different flavoured scents in these sprays but this one has got yo be my favourite, it smells like you could eat it, the packaging isn't the prettiest of bottles but it's been made to smell not to look at i guess
the only downside to this product is that although the spray's scent lasts on you, you have to use alot of it so it runs out really quickly.

so yeah if you want anymore information or would like me to do more of these blog reviews let me know :)
