Lush Sunnyside Bubble Bar Review

Seeing as I will be in France for my birthday, my friend popped round the other week to give me an early birthday present. I got a bag full of amazing goodies, but one of them was a product I have been pining over for ages. This was the Lush Sunnyside bubble bar (£3.75), which is a beautiful sparkly bubble bar with a citrus scent. I have never used a Lush bath product (and I call myself a girl....), so I was super excited to give this a go, as well as being a bit worried that this would stain the bath (my mum would have killed me), but it went alright, there was a bit of residue, but that washed away easily.

Mon Année à l'Étranger et Le Projet Au Début


Salut tout le monde!



Demain (22/08/13) je vais commencer mon année à l'étranger. Si vous ne savez pas, j'étudie le Français comme partie d'un double cursus à Newcastle University. Les gens qui étudient les langues doivent passer un an dans un pays où on parle la langue qu'ils étudient. Je vais étudier à l'Université François Rabelais de Tours. Je ne sais pas beaucoup de Tours, mais j'ai vu quelques photos et je pense qu'il semble joli!

Year Abroad and The Starting Off Project

Hi everyone!


Tomorrow (22/08/13) I will be flying out to France to start my year abroad. If you don't already know, I study French as part of a Combined Honours degree at Newcastle University. As part of a language degree, third years must spend a year in a country where the language they are learning is spoken. I will be spending my year abroad studying at L'Université François Rabelais de Tours. Tours is a medium sized town in the North West of France, but that is all I really know. I picked my destination university out of a hat, because I couldn't decide where to go! It looks really nice in pictures, but I'll find out very soon!

Mes Dix Meilleurs Achats


Charlotte de Makeup By Candlelight m'a nominée de partager avec vous mes dix meilleurs achats de produits de beauté. Merci Charlotte pour le tag! Je l'ai trouvé assez difficile, parce que j'ai beaucoup de produits que j'aime, mais ces produits sont les favoris stables.

1. Microdermabrasion Vitamine C de The Body Shop



Le meilleur exfoliant que j'aie jamais utilisé. Il compte les grenats écrasés qui exfolient la peau. Il est assez abrasif, donc on ne doit utiliser que deux fois par semaine, mais il marche vraiment bien!

TAG: Top 10 beauty buys

Charlotte from Makeup By Candlelight nominated me to share with you my top 10 favourite beauty buys. Thanks Charlotte for tagging me! It was quite hard to choose 10 products, because I have quite a lot of products that I really like, but these are definitely firm favourites of mine.



1. Body Shop Microdermabrasion




This is the best exfoliator I have ever tried. It contains crushed garnet stones to help buff away dead skin cells. It is quite abrasive, so you should only use it once or twice a week, but it really, really works!

Le Maquillage: Mes premières fois et mes échecs

Shannon de Beauty By Shan-Rayann m'a choisi pour fair le tag de mes premières fois et mes échecs avec le maquillage. Merci Shannon! Je vais commencer...


Les yeux


Quand j'ai commencé à utiliser le maquillage, je ne portait l'eyeliner que sur les bords des cils inférieurs, quelque fois sans le mascara ou les autres choses...

Make Up Firsts and Fails: TAG

I was tagged by the fabulous Shannon from Beauty by Shan-Rayann to do the Make Up Firsts and Fails tag. Thanks Shannon! It's a pretty self explanatory tag, so let's begin!


Eyes


When I first started wearing make up, I used to wear eyeliner just on my bottom lash line, sometimes with no mascara, or anything else....
