//FREEDOM MAKEUP HAUL- LIPS//

Hey guys.

So like you saw in my last post, I did a Freedom makeup haul.

I decided to split the products up over a few posts, lips,eyes & face

As then then the posts wouldn't be as long and confusing.

I got 7 lip products in total, 5 pink lipsticks which I bought in a collection. You get 5 for the price of 4 (£4) so lets begin with showing the swatches.



As you can see, A GORGEOUS colour selection.





Left- right 
101 Flushed,  105 tell your friends, 102 candy sweet, 102 pink lust 104 wildflower









As you can see they are very pigmented and very creamy. I would the wear time is about 2 hours because they are creamy but for £1 you cant complain.



The next post you see will be eyes so keep an eye.

//AFTERNOON AT LITTLE BREDY//

Hey guys,

So on Sunday we went to Little bredy and it was my first time and i loved it. Below I will post some information about the place and then i will share with you some photos we took.


Little Bredy
Little Bredy stands at the head of the Bride Valley where the River Bride tumbles down a waterfall from its springs and is well worth visiting for its gorgeous setting. The descent into it from the east is tremendous from either of the two roads with some of the best inland scenery to be seen in the country. The village is serene – cars are not allowed through part of the village creating a peaceful, old fashioned ambience, a sanctuary miles away from today’s fast paced society
 I feel in love with the place, It has all the thatched cottages and the cute little church. The houses all had honeysuckle and other climbing plants on them.

Then we got to the waterfall area... WOW
Here you can see Daddy and Casper loving the waterfall.


                                    The top of the waterfall

At the top is a large lake with ducks and lots of fish

      There is lots of plush green grass and plenty of giant trees to sit under. perfect for a picnic

and a lovely clear stream perfect for a paddle.


And of course a lot of beautiful backdrops for a selfie!
         



If you are ever between Bridport and dorchester then i recommend a trip to little bredy you can find it near hardys monument. just follow the signs.



Until next time,

// JULY FAVOURITES//

Hey guys!
It's that time of the month again!


My monthly favourites!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Montagne jeunesse face mask:

I bought this Peel off tea tree and witch hazel mask not thinking it would be up to much. ... OH MY GOD its amazing.  I have always wanted to try a peel off mask, but I always saw reviews on the more expensive ones and didn't really want to shell the money out if it didn't work for me. I saw this In Asda for £1 and just thought to myself - Try it if it doesn't work you've not love out on much.  It says to apply all over a cleansed face and leave for 25 -30 and then it should be ready to peel. I left it on for the time and oh my it was like cling film,  when I pulled it off my face was so so soft!. The smell is strong so wouldn't advise for people if they aren't into that, but it is a fun little mask for £1 and is really good.





Collection Lasting Colour lipstick : taffeta bloom

I LOVE this lipstick. It's matte and is very pigmented- in the swatch I only did one swipe.
It's also very longlasting. For the price I paid for this lipstick (under £5) I am very impressed with its quality!. I've been teaming it with my next favourite which is a lip liner. 






Essence: lip liner - honey berry 



I've never really been a lip liner girl, but recently I decided to give them ago. I picked this essence one up from Wilkinsons for around £1-2 and I was pleasantly suprise, the pigmentation is on point and the colour is really nice and quite dark but when paired with the collection lipstick it makes a really dark mauve/pinky purple.





Essence:silky touch blush- 80 autumn peach.


Sticking with the essence products, I have a few now and for the price point are really nice.  I picked this blush up at the same time as the lip liner and I think it was around £3. It is as described "silky" to touch and when buffed and blended looks very natural. There is a slight sheen which I love  (all about that glow) 





Loreal Paris -brow artist plumper- clear 

I saw this raved about all over youtube. I searched for ages to find it and when I did I wasn't disappointed. My eyebrows are sparce and small. This really does what it says on the tube, your brows feel and look more plump.






Last but not least....

My makeup storage.
This month I went to the range and saw this little drawers -the first thing I thought was... makeup storage! I had my eye on the perspex ones but for £10 a set I didn't want to pay it. The ones I picked up were from the office supply section and we're about £4 each... they do just the job and I got two got the price one of the perspex ones cost me. The lipstick holder is perspex but I got it from amazon for £2.



Until next time, 

Leona ❤

// BLOGGER INTERVIEW


The blogger Interview.
 
How did you get into blogging?

I always wanted to write a blog and made a few in the past written one post and forgotten about it. I decided to give it one more go and now I'm here.

What advice would you give to a blogger just starting out?

-Watch tutorials and read about how to design your blog... what site is best for you and most importantly let it flow. . Don't force it.

How has your blog changed since you started writing ?

-It hasn't really no.

What would be your dream campaign?

-I don't know something  to do with beauty?

What advice would you give to PR's wanting to approach you for a campaign?

-Of course people would like to receive free things... but just because you are offered doesn't mean you need to do it. I wouldn't accept anything I wouldn't like really. A yes please or a thanks but no thanks would suffice

Do you have a plan for you blog?

-To write more. To get a handful of followers and to enjoy it.

What do you think about rankings ?

I check them an hour after  I post and maybe the next day but it's not a priority to see how many page views I've had- I find it more interesting to see where in the world are reading my posts 😃

Thanks for the tag Chrissie  (allabouttheburts)

I tag EVERYONE!

Until next time,

Leona ❤
