My everyday make up :D

24.

Hello my loves *waves* I would just like to say I am in a MUCH better mood than I was back in my last blog, sometimes things just get a bit much and you need a good cry and cuddle from the one you love the most, but I am absolutely fine now :D

Did you all have a good weekend? 

This blog is TOTALLY different, on Friday at work a girl asked me how I do my make up, I was thinking 'oh no!!' But she asked because she liked it :D so I thought I would show you the steps I take for my everyday make up :) There is a picture of me with NO make up on and it's not the nicest of things to see but there's only the one. Some of the pictures I took with a camera and some with my iPod because I've got my 'selfie' face mastered and it just wasn't working right with the digital camera *laughs* I'm not a professional, I don't know if I use the correct brushes or the correct colours for my face but I like the end result so I hope you do too :)

Oh and listen to whatever you like because that's what I do when doing my make up.

So...this is what I use everyday, as you can see most of it is running out (must buy more!!)

WARNING - GRAPHIC IMAGE OF MYSELF WEARING NO MAKE UP
THIS is my face! YUCK, yes I'm 24 and still get spots!! When do they stop appearing arrghh

I apply my foundation first...obvs...so that I cover all those scars from spots and to make my skin tone more even. I just get the brush and go mad. DON'T FORGET TO DO THE NECK, foundation lines don't look good on anyone!

I then put concealer on under my eyes and slightly on my eyelids as they usually stay quite pink, I also put it on my spots so they don't look all sore and red. I use a brush to blend the concealer in and hope that it looks all lovely. (sorry about the wrinkles guys)

I didn't take a picture of my face after I blended the concealer and put powder on because I wasn't sure if it would show up on a picture but after I put the powder on I get my blusher and again...go mad, sometimes I go a bit OTT but it's because I'm pale and I think blusher is good to bring colour :) I tend to put blusher on my whole cheek bone and just lightly around the temple (I don't know why)

Eye-shadow is my new friend, I used it so much it's practically all gone, I use a light natural base colour on the whole of my lid up to the eyebrow.

I then mix the light brown and gold shimmer colours I have to go in the crease of the eyelid, I tend to go above that crease as well with those two colours. Once I'm happy with that I get the dark brown and go around the edge of my lid, this gives a nice smokey eye effect but with more natural tones rather than black. 

Eye-liner has been in my life since I was 16!! I still mess it up, you can kinda see it's not the neatest of jobs from this picture. I always do a wing, I absolutely love my eye-liner like this, I don't look right if I don't wear it. 

Once the eye-liner is on I then put tons of mascara on! I have quite long lashes and I love them to be quite noticeable, so there is no such thing as too much mascara to me :) 

Here is a better look at my lashes! If you have straight lashes deffo use an eyelash curler :) 
I don't put eye-liner on the water line of my eyes, I find eyes look bigger without it.

Then to finish it off I put a tiny bit of pink lipstick on and ta-dahhh I can be seen in public :D
I never reapply my lipstick, I don't know why, as the day goes by I don't feel I need too.
I don't reapply any of my make up to be honest, I think I put so much of the stuff on it can't go anywhere :D



I hope you enjoyed that little picture show :) like I said, I'm no professional, I haven't given you any advice on how to apply make up, I'm just showing you my face. There is no right or wrong with make up, you wear it however you feel is most comfortable and how confident it makes you feel. 

I've got to get sorted for work now but we will chat soon my loves

Much love
Beth xx

My letter to MND

22. Dear you, I want to start off by saying I don't like you. From the day we have met all you have done is cause pain, you have caused misery! That is all you do for everyone you meet. You find them at their best and demolish their whole being. You break them down to the point where there is no fight left, but they will fight you until the very end knowing they will never win. One day they will win, one day we will all break YOU down so you're not here any more. None of us like you, but you bring us all closer together. You make us realise that we can't go on just floating by, you make us realise that time is the most precious thing any one in the world has got! And with that precious time we have to make as many wonderful memories possible, we have to tackle all the hurdles you throw at us so that you know we will stick together and fight you. I have the displeasure of knowing you, so many others have the displeasure of living  with you. For those I can't i...

Arsenal, Tears and Happiness!

26. We meet again my loves, how ya diddling? I'm good, I have two weeks off work now :D nothing major is planned...oh wait HARRY POTTER STUDIOS and bonfire night, I love bonfire night, the magic of the fireworks and sparklers is just so beautiful. I will definitely try and get some pictures of the fireworks and sparklers of the bonfire I'm planning on going too.  Is it just in the UK we celebrate bonfire night?  I'm currently listening Marmozets - Captivate You, I've heard this band quite a lot on Kerrang radio and just love this song, it gets me bouncing around in my seat. I downloaded their album and it's pretty belting I have to say! It was on repeat everyday this past week on the bus, a definite boost before work.  I don't know if I told you guys that my Dads best friend, Steve, contacted Arsenal (my Dad is obsessed) and explained his situation and how much he loves the team and always has done, and they wrote him back to say they would send Dad...

End of an era

 10 years...10 long but very fast years!! Okay, I admit, I'm late to the 10 year blog anniversary, like 7 months late haha but I've been busy. I can't quite believe I started writing on here over 10 years ago. About my Dad, who has now been gone 10 years as of only a few days ago! Which is mental. This pocket of space helped me a lot back then, and it continued to help a little while after but it's definitely time for me to say goodbye to this space now. It served me well back then, but like we all do, I've grown and found other things now that suit me better. You see, I couldn't express in real life how I felt back then, what I was dealing with watching my Dad with MND. So this was my voice. Then I realised oh wow I can say a lot of things here that I can't express due to fear or embarrassment and general learning things about myself etc. Who knew writing a few words on a few posts could help heal so many broken pieces. I'll always be pretty grateful fo...
