Christmas update!!!!

Hey everyone, so I thought I would do a christmas update as I haven't posted in a few days. I am not prepared for christmas at all!!! As always, we've left the majority of the christmas shopping to the last minute. Christmas presents for the women in my family are all done, we still have to get the males in my family something except for my dad as i've got his sorted. I also still need to buy something for my lovely mum which I'm hopefully doing when I go to manchester with Dad on Saturday. However my christmas plans have been confirmed and I will be posting my plans in an upcoming post, along with my new years resolutions.
Anyway, I'm sorry this post is short, it's not the best update as I've been called into work...but I should have another couple of posts in the next few days. If you want to follow me on twitter, instagram or bloglovin, I'll leave the links to those below. I'll have a couple more posts up in the next few days.

MUA Twelfth Night: Winter Shades Palette Review!!!!

Hi Everyone!!!! So this is my first beauty related post....and its a review. In superdrug, they have loads of offers on the beauty counters, and i found the best offer was on the MUA counter. Their offer was spend £8 or more and get the Twelfth Night: Winter Shades palette free. I'd been wanting to try out some new eye shadow shades for the winter season but didn't want to spend a lot of money on palettes. So this offer was perfect. The palette itself if you didn't want to use the offer, is £4 which is an amazing price for an eye shadow palette. 

Simple but beautiful packaging ! 

 The palette itself has a simple packaging which enables you to see the colours clearly. On the back it has a chart of the colour names so you can see which shadow shades you are using. 
The colours themselves are absolutely beautiful. You get a mixture of matte and shimmer shades which are quite pigmented, but you can build them up to get the consistency that you want. 

I havent used all the colours yet but i've been loving using Ice as a highlighter in the inner corners of my eyes, along my cheek bones and on my cupids bow. I've also been using Star Shine or Enchant to line my top lash line instead of using liquid or gel eyeliner for a softer effect. My favourite combination of colours is Hush all over the lid, with Myrrh or Oudh in the crease and Enchant or Star Shine along my top and bottom lashline. 

Colours: Top Row:  Ice, Myrrh, Frost, Oudh, Coal, and Fir
Bottom row: Hush, All Spice, Ivy, Plum, Enchant and Star Shine.

That is all from me for this post, i have another post coming on friday which will hopefully be my outfit and makeup of the night for my mums works christmas party. 

If you want to follow my social media links i'll link them below. I leave you with a question: Should i make a facebook page?? Let me know via twitter or instagram.

5 things to do on a Sick Day!!!

Hi Everyone, So its around the time of year when people start developing colds and flu viruses so i thought i would put together a list of five things to do to on a sick day.

1: Read a book
There are so many styles of book out there,from  fantasy to gothic horror, to love stories and comedies. My personal favourites include the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling, The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins and the House of Night Series by PC and Kristen Cast.

2: Watch a Movie
Movies pass the time so quickly, i love having a movie marathon when i'm sick as i can get through three,four sometimes five movies. I pick the classic feel good movies such as Mean Girls, Wild Child, and Disney Movies such as Frozen and Brave.

3: Netflix
If you are lucky enough to have Netflix, then you can catch up on films or watch an entire series of your favourite shows. I'm hoping to get Netflix soon so i can watch Pretty Little Liars from the beginning.

4: Social Networking. 
Social Networking is another thing that passes the time by quickly. I could spend hours on Twitter, Instagram and Youtube. Not so much facebook but the others definitely.

5: EAT!!!
Food always makes me happy..especially when i'm sick. I try and eat healthily but sometimes i will enjoy a bar of Dairy Milk Chocolate or Metcalfe's Sweet 'n Salty popcorn. Tea is also good especially if you have a sore throat. Speaking of sore throats, Marshmallows are the best food to eat as the sugar takes the sandpapery feeling away.

Thanks for reading guys, i hope this helped!!! I'll be posting more posts throughout the month of december. Follow my social media links below and i'll be back in a few days wth a new post.

You can donate anything, small or big. My mum and i have both donate some money and my mum is going into work dressed up in 80's style fashion, she looks brilliant!!!
Anyway...going off topic there, welcome back to my university series :) I know this is only the second post but i do have slightly more to update with this time. I am now in my third month of my second year, and i'm finding it slightly tough. i have been off quite a bit for personal reasons but luckily i have managed to just about catch up on what i have missed. Two assignments have been launched and another one is being launched next week. I have started my research project for Work based unit, but have yet to contact anyone about doing work experience, i've made an attempt to start my cruise essay and next week my tutor for Tour Operations is launching our first assignment. Luckily we have quite a while to do them but i want to get them done and over with and not leave them to the last minute like I did last year...oops!!!
