This and that...

After seeing a recommendation I've just finished the first book in the Pretty Little Liars series by Sara Shepard was really good!

Make Up Tips.....for oily skin!

If you are prone to oily skin you'll already know that the make up that works for most other people may not work for your. The dewy, fresh-faced look can be everywhere but this may not be the best idea for your skin type.

Best Foundations

There are so many new and amazing foundations on the market, I've narrowed them down to some of my faves. They promise to keep you looking good for longer! Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation £9.99 This is a brilliant foundation. Good coverage, I'd say light to medium and glides on easily and smells amazing. I find it lasts all day and you don't need a massive amount. It's a high end product as far as I'm concerned for a great price! Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation £8.99 This really does give your skin a nice subtle glow, its a light/medium coverage again so possibly need to touch up with concealer (unless you are blessed with good skin) smells nice too.

How to do it yourself pedicure at home... So I know summer is over, well, it is for me! However, there is never an excuse for non pretty feet. Here's my tips for top toes... Step 1 (see what I did there) You will need the following; • Nail polish remover • A large bowl or foot bath filled with some water (not too hot not too cold) and bubble bath • Cuticle oil • Exfoliating foot scrub • A bath towel • A hand towel • A foot callus file • Nail clipper • A fine grit nail file • Foot lotion • Cotton pads • Base coat • Your favourite nail polish! • Top coat • Toe separators I understand not everyone has all these bits just lying around but use what you can from the list... Remove any leftover polish on your feet, use mild acetone polish remover and a cotton pad to remove it. Acetone remover is not damaging to nails it also gets rid of stains etc. faster than non-acetone remover. Make an at-home pedicure more relaxing by soaking your fe...
