-What is Benefit Cosmetics releasing tomorrow?- Recently there’s been a lot of talk about Benefit Cosmetics’s new release, and it’s all been very secretive, giving no kind of indication as to what it is, and weather it’s a new range or just one product. To find out as much as I possibly could I did some research before the big reveal, but I have to admit, there really is nothing online that even hints at what it could be, but it is being described as ‘out of this world’ by benefit themselves. After finding virtually nothing online I popped into the nearest benefit counter on my way to work to ask a few questions, and found that it can’t be sold until 7pm tomorrow, so I will be going back there to pick up whatever it is that’s being launched. The only other information I did get which I think might be quite telling is that whatever is being released is ‘what Benefit is well known for’ and the first thing that comes to mind is eyebrows. So, using the very limited information obtained, ...

-Magic Makeup Remover- I’m always interested in trying new beauty products and I love finding new things that work for me, so I subscribe to Birchbox (which is just a monthly subscription of different skincare and makeup products). In this months box I received something I've never heard of before so I thought it would be worth writing about it here. The the brand of the product is Afterspa which is new to me too, they describe this product as a magic makeup remover, so I was pretty interested in finding out more. Before I opened the packaging my initial thought was that it was going to be a little mitt, but when I opened it up it was a long oval piece of fluffy cloth, but I think I may have received a sample size so the full version probably is a mitt. I machine washed it first as instructed, because that's apparently what makes it work, according to the instructions (I’m not sure what the science behind it is). When I ran it under the tap I expected it be soapy a...

- New year's resolutions - I know its a bit late, but we are still in January (just). So I thought this topic was still totally appropriate and a good way for me to give a bit more information about myself. Even though I never usually stick to my resolutions, I’ve made a fair few this year. The first one is quite a big and expensive one.     Moving out -  Currently I live with my Mum and Sister, but my Boyfriend and I have been together for nearly 3 years now, and we’ve decided this year would be the year we move out. I don't know the first thing about house hunting, bills, or living on my own, so if anyone has any good advice it would be much appreciated!    The second of my three resolutions is less expensive but equally scary for me.    Blog - I settled on doing a blog because it seems a lot less daunting than going straight to vlogs and having my face on the internet forever, so for now I'm happy to share my experi...

-Welcome to my new blog- I am 19 years old, I live in Devon, and as a part of my new year’s resolution this year I’m starting a blog. It’s something I've wanted to do for a while as I think sharing my thoughts and creations with other people could be quite nice, so here I am. I haven't quite decided what my main theme here will be yet, but for now, I thought I'd post about whatever interests me at the time and let a theme develop. I have quite a few, small, interests (makeup, skincare, textiles, and photography to name a few) so I'll mainly be talking about those, but if anyone wants to hear about anything in particular, please just ask!
