Halfterm Summary #6! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

It's that time again...Halfterm summary! You may or may not know that I was on my May Halfterm recently, so today I thought I would tell you what I got up to from Monday-Friday. 

Monday 26th May: Today I didn't do much, in the morning I was on my Laptop and then my Nan and Grampy came to visit, who were here for about 2 hours. I then went to Sainsbury's and then spent the rest of the evening on my Laptop and watched Eastenders! 

Tuesday 27th May: Today I was home alone all morning and afternoon, so I was very lonely! But...I blogged and watched lots of YouTube videos. My Mum and Sister then came home but I stayed in for the rest of the day as it was raining. I just went on my Laptop and did more blogging. I then had Dinner and watched Eastenders! 

Wednesday 28th May: Today I got up very late, so I didn't do much in the morning but in the afternoon I went Shopping with my Mum and Sister and we got a few bits and bobs. I then came home and had a Hot Chocolate and watched YouTube videos. I then had Dinner and had a chilled evening. 
Thursday 29th May: Thursday was another Laptop day. I literally spent the whole morning on my Laptop watching YouTube videos and writing Blog Posts. I also had a bit of a pamper morning and then spent the Afternoon taking picture's for my Spring Look Book as we had a little bit of Sun...but it soon started raining after that, so I was super lucky I got that done quickly. I also did a bit of Maths Homework :( Before then having Dinner and finishing the Day watching Eastenders and more YouTube videos...boring! 

Friday 30th May: In the Morning and late Afternoon I went Shopping to Tesco's with my family...fun! In the Afternoon I had my Lunch and then I spent the rest of the day a little bit obsessed with the Sims App! It's a bit ridiculous...I used to play Sims on the Computer years ago, but recently stopped playing it. Anyway...I had Dinner and then watched Eastenders and nearly ended up crying...such a weirdo! I then watched some YouTube videos and that was basically my day...boring! 

So that was my boring Halfterm! What did you get up to? Let me know in the comments! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed.

May Favourites 2014! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

Another month gone and another favourites for you all today. May went super quick and I can't believe we are coming into the Summer months already! 
May Favourites: 

1. Milk-Shake Leave In Hair Treatment: My Sister had this in the Bathroom and wasn't really using it, so I decided to give it a go and loved it! First of all it smells of toffee, it is so yummy, I want to eat my Hair afterwards! It claims to do 12 things 1. Repairs all hair types, 2. Frizz Control, 3. Prevents split ends, 4. Heat protection, 5. Long lasting Hairstyle, 6. Incredibly detangling, 7. Magnificent shine, 8. Adds body and volume, 9. Easier ironing, 10. Protects and maintains colour, 11. Protects from UV rays, and 12. Smooths the cuticle. Whether it does all of these things or not, I don't know but it's reassuring to think it does! It definitely makes my Hair smoother and shinier and I've noticed less split ends. I also like how it protects my Hair from Heat! 

2. Disney Princess Kinder Eggs: If you've read THIS blog post, you will know that I've recently developed an obsession for Disney Princess Kinder Eggs so of course they had to feature in my favourites post. I chose Sleeping Beauty and Rapunzel because they are my favourite Disney Princesses! Also, they are super cute and I just adore them to pieces. Plus, the Chocolate's also very yummy! 

3. Avon 24k Gold Strength: This is a clear coat of Nail Varnish that helps to stop your Nails breaking and I love it. It definitely helps my Nails from doing that annoying thing where they peel back and they feel stronger. I also like how that it makes your Nails look slightly shimmery, so even though you've got a boring clear coat on, it's not actually that boring! 

4. Soap and Glory Mist You Madly Body Mist: I got this for Easter and no lie...I've worn it every day since and it's kind of become my signature scent. I think the scent is so beautiful, it's very girly and sweet. It also lasts for my whole School day and I can ALWAYS smell it on me. 

5. Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturiser: An old favourite of mine but it had to feature in this months favourites. Everyone know's that this is my favourite moisturiser, it works best for my Skin because it's oil-free. It makes my Skin feel super smooth and lovely. However, I wouldn't say that it helps to prevent Spots but it does help my Blemishes. 

So they are all my favourites from the month of May! June is going to be super busy for me but I hope to keep my Blog updated on Wednesday's and Sunday's so don't disappear! 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed.

Lush: Secret Santa Bath Ballistic Review! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

Today I am going to be reviewing the really cool Secret Santa Bath Ballistic from the 2013 Lush Christmas Range! You will also be glad to know that this is going to be my last Lush Christmas Review from the 2013 collection. Saving the best until last?! 
Meet Secret Santa Bath Ballistic. It's the biggest Bath Ballistic you ever did see and super heavy! It's in the shape of a House and is suppose to be 'Santa's Grotto', and it's finished Orange all over, with a White Roof and Pink detailing for the Doors and Windows. Apparently, if you split it in half, it reveals a mini Father Christmas and you are suppose to get 2 Baths out of this. Unfortunately, I could not split it (it was literally too solid) and I knew I would just make a mess of it, so I just put it in whole and got 1 Bath out of it. 

It has a very 'typical Lush scent' with it's featured ingredients being Ylang Ylang Absolute, Sandalwood Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Lime and Lemon Oils and Tonka Absolute, giving the Bath Ballistic a really sweet, citrusy scent. It also lingered on my Skin afterwards. 

When you pop Secret Santa Bath Ballistic in the Bath, it fizzes very quickly (which is suprising seeing as it is so big, but it was gone in a matter of seconds) leaving the Bath Water a VERY bright Orange colour. There was also bits of Red that came out (obviously from the mini Santa inside) which darkened the Orange colour even more. 

It does leave your Skin feeling very soft and nourished but it also left my Skin and Bath a tiny bit stained Orange, which was a bit disappointing. 

Overall, I was quite disappointed. For a very expensive Bath Ballistic, priced at £5.75, it was really boring and I felt like it only turned the Bath Water Orange when it could have done a lot more, being so expensive! Would I buy it again? I think once is enough! 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed! Next up...Mother's Day Reviews!

Lush: Magic Wand Bubble Bar Review! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

Another Lush Christmas review today and I am going to be reviewing the Magic Wand Bubble Bar, that has come out in previous years as well as 2013. 
Magic Wand is presented on a Stick, with a bit of Pink Ribbon and a tiny Bell, that rattles when you swish it in the Water. The Magic Wand is a Pink Star and has the typical Snow Fairy scent, with a featured ingredient of Fair Trade Vanilla Absolute, which I personally love! The smell lingers on your Skin afterwards and fills up the Bathroom. I have to say though, I thought the Stick would break, as the Star is quite heavy but fortunately it did not! 
Whilst swishing Magic Wand Bubble Bar around the Bath (or if you prefer to hold it under the running water tap) you get tons and tons of soft-sweet scented Bubbles, which leave your Skin feeling lovely and smooth. It also tints the Bath Water a cute, Pink/Peach colour, which I loved and there was no staining! 

I managed to get about 5 Baths out of this, I never thought it was going to end. I think that is a good amount, seeing as it is priced at about £4.95. I do love this cute Bubble Bar and will definitely repurchase again! 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!

Lush: Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic Review! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

Sorry for not posting a Lush review in ages, I was really busy with School work and what not. Anyway, today I am still getting through the Christmas reviews and I am going to be reviewing Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic. 
This is Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic. This is a massive, gold all over but white bow Bath Ballistic, in the shape of a present. It has tiny bits of Red Glitter all over the top of it and when you shake it, it rattles. Just like a real present! It has a very strong citrusy smell, with it's feature ingredients being sweet Orange Oil, Cognac Oil and Lime Oil, which lingered on the Skin afterwards. 
As soon as you pop it into the Bath, it releases a foamy layer of white Bubbles, but then the Bath Water starts to go a Golden colour. However, the Bath Ballistic has an inside layer of Blue, which suddenly overtakes leaving the Bath Water a beautiful aqua Blue colour. 

There was also a random pop of Pink colour, which was really exciting! There was also lots of tiny little Stars that hung around for a bit before dissolving. This Bath Ballistic left my Skin feeling very smooth and nourished. However, I found that it took forever to dissolve and I ended up breaking the bow with my Hands. But the Glitter didn't stick to my Skin and the Water didn't stain the Bath! 

Overall, at £3.25, this is a fantastic Bath Ballistic. It's my favourite Christmas one and I would definitely recommend it to everyone! 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed.

Recent Purchases! | Believe In Beauty

Hey!:)

At the Weekend I did a tiny bit of Shopping but actually only came Home with 2 things. However, I absolutely love what I brought and I thought I would show you it today! 
First of all I brought a Ted Baker Make Up Bag! I've been wanting one of these for ages and I love it. It's the Pink one with the Black bow. It's so gorgeous! It's called the Small Bow Vinyl Wash Bag but it's not actually that small, I'd say it's more of a medium size. It also appears much more bigger inside and I can fit all my current everyday Make Up in, with lots of free space! 

The second thing I brought (which I'm so excited about) is my 1st EVER MAC product! I got the Mineralized Skin Finish in 'Lust', which is a gorgeous dark Pink colour. I think this is going to be perfect for the Summer and I can't wait to start wearing it. I will definitely review it when I've tried it for long enough! 

Thankfully, both of these items were brought from an outlet store so they were discounted. The Ted Baker Make Up Bag was suppose to be £22.00 but was actually £14.00 and the Mac Mineralized Skin Finish was suppose to be £22.00 but was actually £15.50. It's definitely always worth checking out outlet stores! 

I really hope you enjoyed this Post and liked seeing my new buys, I love them! I hope maybe it's given you some inspiration to see what beautiful bargains you can find. Thanks for reading!
