My make up (pics)

 Ok, so here are the pictures of the stuff I used. They are in no order! I got lazy and couldn't be bothered to sort them. Oh the laziness!
(In order of appearance) Rimmel London Recover Anti-Fatigue conceler, leopard print angled blush brush and powder brush duo (came in a pack of other duo brushes), wand of the anti-fatigue concealer, MUA pressed powder, Rimmel London Hide the Blemish, Silver Dollar eyeshadow, eyeshadow brushes I used, eyeliners and mascara, Luxury duo eyeshadow mocha + fudge, Twinkling grape eyeshadow, GO!GO!GO! eyeshadows box, my eye, MEEEE!!!!





MUA pressed powder







How I do my make-up!

So, I finally found the motivation, yay!
Here's a little tutorial on how I do my make up!

First, I exfoliate my face using Clean&Clear exfoliating daily wash. Once that is washed off properly, I take some tissue and go over my face with Tea tree cleanser and toner (from Superdrug) then moisturise using Cyclax Nature Pure Vitamin E face & body cream (from Avon) mixed in with a bit of Rimmel London Lasting Finish foundation in soft beige. This is like a tinted moisturiser!

I then conceal my imperfections. For my eyes I use Rimmel London Recover Anti-Fatigue concealer in soft beige. This was a freebie from Lloyds pharmacy for work experience. Then I cover the rest of my imperfections and blemishes with Rimmel London Hide the Blemish in soft honey.

I finish off by going over my face with a light dusting of MUA pressed powder in shade 1, though, I wouldn't really recommend this because it can make the make up look a bit caked on.

I don't use lipstick/lipgloss much, since my lips are naturally red, so I just go ahead and use my Dr.Pepper lip smacker which I got from Claires.

For my eyebrows I use an angled brush and use Luxury Duo Eyeshadow (discontinued I think) In mocha + fudge. I use the fudge to shade in my eyebrows. To shape them and hold them in place I usually spray some hairspray on an old (never used but well cleaned) toothbrush and brush over my brows, ta da!

Using a 'C' shaped fluffy brush, go over all of the lid and into the crease with 'fudge' from the Luxury Duo eyeshadow. If you don't have that brand, just use any nude coloured eyeshadow you have!
Using my medium fluffy brush (I don't have a big one :O) I put Twinkling grape (from the Front Cover GO! GO! GO! box) in the crease of my eye to give it depth. I used a windscreen wiper movement until it was blended in nicely. It's a pretty purple-ish colour with a little bit of sparkle. 
Then, using the small fluffy brush, I highlighted my brows using Silver Dollar in the GO! GO! GO! box. It's a white colour with a bit of sparkle. Using the same brush and colour, I highlighted my tear ducts.

I then applied brown eyeliner from Collection 2000 to my waterline and then lined my top lashes with Extreme 24 hour felt tip liner (also from Collection 2000)
Then finished off by curling my lashes then coating them with More Lashes Multiplying Mascara. (discontinued)
Pictures will be in another post!
Toodle pip for now!


Dear diary.

I wish I could find the motivation to do my little make up tutorial. I also wish I had the motivation to think of a story idea to fill my other blog up a bit! Actually... I just wish I had motivation. Well at least I got out of bed, so maybe I do have some energy in me, although I did sleep in until 12 today, I blame the clammy weather though.

Tomorrow, I am going to see my cousin's new born baby, Matthew, I am so excited! I've seen him in pictures, and he is absolutely adorable. One day, when I'm old enough I will have children....

I don't know what else to talk about now! Since I have finished school, I haven't really had the motivation to do much! Also, interesting stuff doesn't happen much any more... I might actually go and play on a game, if I have the energy to walk back upstairs, ha ha! Ahh the summer lazy days...

I'm a bit accident prone...

Well, I told you guys about my little incident with the Argos catalogue, but I never told you that make up can be EVIL!!!!!
Seriously! I was going to put up a post about how I do my make up, then I got to the pressed powder and I couldn't open it... Eventually I did, but I did cut my finger in 3 places. It didn't want to stop bleeding either. (I'm like my dad, once I start bleeding, it takes ages to stop.) So, I had these 3 teenie weenie little cuts on my finger, but I managed to get blood almost everywhere! Sheesh.


Am I the only one who thinks my finger looks disfigured and disgusting now?
Yes, I went there and took a picture!
Yes, I was bleeding for 2 hours from that teenie little thing :')
Blood was coming out from under my cuticle :/ and now I have blood all over my nail and it won't come off :O






I totally forgot what I was going to say but it was about more accidents but my friend keeps telling me crap about this parrot her boyfriend has and she has basically been talking to me about it for an hour now... Completely lost my train of thought and can't get "I really don't care if the parrot is swearing at you" stuck in my head...

Now I've just gassed me and my dad out with fly spray and I think I'm going to die...

So happy fresh, fly spray free air to you!
Toodles!

Bad day

It's only half 9 in the morning and my day is bad already! Let's me just start off by saying there was an Argos catalogue on my bed.
It started when I was running around the house trying to sort things out so I could go to bloggers meet up today, then I collapsed, I held onto my quilt covers to stop me hurting myself, hit my head off the floor... Then the Argos catalogue fell onto my head... I also think I knocked myself out for a little while... This was around half 7 maybe... My mam thinks I could well and truly have concussion because my vision is all weird, I have a splitting headache (painkillers aren't even helping) and I feel quite sick...

On a good note, last night my sister came over with Diary of a Wimpy Kid (the book) and it took me around 4/5 hours to read it all *grabs big glasses with no lens in and does the Zoe trademark geek laugh*
Also, yesterday, me and my niece baked... We made cookies first and then made choccy road... After we made the choccy road, we remembered the cookies were in the oven... They were burnt and we forgot to grease the tray so they all got stuck... At least our choccy road turned out ok-ish... I keep stealing the marshmallows though...

Well, I think I'm going to lie down for a little bit and hate on Argos for making their catalogues so big and bulky...
Toodles!

Just a quick little update!

Hi guys! Thought I'd post something since I haven't posted in 4 days! AH MAH GAAAD, I know.

SOOOOOO! It is 2 in the morning here! I have a few little plans on my mind. (I'm bored so I might do my numbers in German)

Plan nummer eins: (one)
So, I was thinking, maybe I should make another blog so I can put up my story ideas? What do you guys think?
I actually thought of this today when I was thinking about writing a little story, I just wanted somewhere to keep my little plans and updates and so on, so Blogger was the first thing on my mind. Why not? People can review it, so I can make it a bit better... They can also tell me if the story sounds good and that I should go through with it... Also, it's a safe place to keep it and it won't get lost!

Plan nummer zwei: (two)
My second plan is actually for tomorrow, when my niece comes over. My mothergoose bought 'Choccy Road Mix' (marshmallows and chocolate cake) and my sister dearest got me a cookie mix, so why not spend quality time with my little niece and bake with her! I will also get pictures and post them on here because I don't put pictures up much... -Le sigh-

Plan nummer drie: (three)
Snuggle up in bed and watch Weird Science (my favourite film at the minute) or maybe even Harry Potter because I saw part 2 advertised and it got me all excited and all I could do was point at the screen and go "nyeh" and my mother just stared at me as to say "What have I gave birth to :|" But seriously, can't wait to go and see it! Looks amazing! Oh, has anyone seen about the Pottermore? What do you guys think of it? Me and my sister were talking about it and we were thinking; wouldn't it be interesting if we had a story about Snape's point of view... So we could see what he was doing when he wasn't "on the scene"

Plan nummer vier: (four)
I was thinking, maybe, if my hay fever-ish eyes doesn't look too bad and and if you guys wanted, I might even post a few tutorials on makeup, e.g. my skincare routine, how I do my makeup... Just a thought, because this blog was really for more of that sort of stuff...
Maybe, I might even stick in a few film reviews, because I love watching films... Maybe book reviews too because I also love reading... Old books for the win!

Anywho, they are the plans I have so far... I think I have started to blabber a bit, so sorry if you guys get a bit bored! This is what happens when I don't update for a while... Oh by the way, yes I still came on here to read your lovely blogs! I never disappeared for good, don't worry!

Anywho, I'm going to rub my face on Harry Potter...
Toodles!

Hair!

Well, if you read my last post you will have seen that I bought some hair extension streaks. I got some photo's of them in my hair, as requested by Fiona (Voice of a Nerd)
I had to scribble my nose out because it looked huge!

Front view!













So here are some pictures of the streaks in. I only got one streak, just to test it out. I'm not 100% sure if I should get a few more. They are just £1 from Internationale!
As I was saying to Fiona, I think blue streaks suit all hair colours really, but mainly brown or black hair. I also think that pink suits blonde hair more.
I'm not too sure if it suits my hair colour or not, Maybe my hair is a bit light?
Anyway, when I purchased the streaks they were super long, so you may have to cut them to the correct length. I cut mine a bit longer then my layers so they showed through a bit :)


Anyway, that's all I have for you now, I might put a post up later about the foundation and pressed powder I purchased too!

Toodle pip!

I have hypermobility syndrome

Yes, I indeed have hypermobility syndrome. I don't know why I have to put it on here... I just found it quite amusing and like I said, this is like my diary.

Just in case you don't know
It's where your joints flex farther then normal.

So, basically, I can bend my arms and legs in the wrong direction (not too far though) and I can also bend my fingers really far back, and push my thumb down until it is touching my arm...

This can cause problems with my joints though, which it was actually a good idea that I got cod liver oil...

Hmmm... I think that' all I have for now...
You lot stay beautiful!

Toodle pip

Yay!

Ok, so now I'm officially finished school for good (since Wednesday) so no more excuses for not writing blogs... A part from not being able to think of anything interesting to blog about.

Hmm, I was having a staring competition with my dog and completely forgot what I was going to say... It'll come back.

Onto college stuff, until I remember what I was going to say. I'm having a tough time choosing between 2 different colleges, I can choose out of Usworth college and Shiney Row college. At Usworth, I chose to do Health and Social care and at Shiney Row, I chose to do more artistic stuff and decided I would like to do textiles and fashion.
I think I will stick to textiles and fashion because that's the kind of stuff I like... I also have more subjects to choose, but I don't know what to take yet... Hmm :S

I still can't remember what I was going to say because of my dog, so I'll just finish this blog off with some pictures :)

How I keep myself amused now that I'm finished school

Yep. I made a chicken/rooster shape, took a picture and went on paint and coloured it in. 
Oh yeah, ignore the face I was pulling... I was listening to music and concentrating on my little creation. There's my concentration face!
I decided to share it with you guys because you's are cool and I found it amusing and just wanted to show you!

My top songs

Just thought I'd hare some of my favourite songs with you, just because we all have different music tastes... You will actually see that my taste can vary a bit. I will also post links from Youtube, so if you want to listen, you don't have to go through with the hassle.

Relaxing song - Kerli - Walking on air.
Favourite song(s) -
Kerli - Tea party
Kerli - Army of love
The Birthday Massacre - In the dark
Song I think is a good summer tune - DJ Fresh - Louder.

I don't know if you have noticed but I really like Kerli. She is beautiful and a good singer!
Anywho, here are the links. I apologize if you don't like any, but hey, we all have different tastes!

Any help/tips?

Hey, as you all heard, I'm really skinny. I weigh around 6 stone and I eat and eat, yet I never gain any weight. Do any of you know a way I could gain weight. Like a special diet or something? I would really appreciate the help! Thankyou!

What's the point.

Urgh, need to rant on!
My so called friends find it hilarious when they see a fat person and they make fun of them. They basically don't know if they have medical problems or some sort of genetic disease running in their family. Plus they also find it hilarious to call me obese, and I'm underweight already. Not only does it hurt my feelings, but it actually could make people who are slightly overweight upset and self concious of their body!
Thanks to them I have to go to the doctors a lot about it.

Main point in this post. I hate people like that! They aren't exactly the skinniest or perfect people either so I don't see why they have to be bullies.

Oh and another thing, clumsy me! I collapsed last night (after watching 1 guy 1 jar... Seriously do not watch it! A jar smashes up his bumhole and theres blood and glass everywhere. Jeez) and then again today in the middle of school. Sprained my knee and wrist... Oh dear!

Anywho, that's all for now folks.

Toodle pip!

~Irrelivant post name~

I haven't been updating much recently, and trust me, I still do come on here every day to read your lovely blogs, I just have nothing to write about really.
So, this one is quite a bit like my diary... But it's also random... If you get me.

I would like to start off with a quote I like;
"He who laughs last laughs the loudest."
This is a quote what my science teacher always says. She says it a lot because we have exams soon and we are revising lots and some people never turned up so she sat there mumbling her quote, then speaks up and says "Remember class, you're all doing revision, when you come out with excellent marks and the others who are out now and enjoying themselves get low marks, you's will be laughing the loudest." Or something like that... Does that even make sense?

Onto another thing! My dog is adorable. He seen me and noticed I was upset and so he came over, nudged my face and then decided to snuggle up with me. How sweet is that!?

There he is, just woke up and looking yellow in the light.
I adore my little dog. He is called Scottie.








Update on my book:
Wow, must say that Red Riding Hood is getting very interesting and confusing at the same time.
The wolf is one of the villagers and she suspects lots of people and there are clues who point out that it's them. I already know who the wolf is and I've got to say, I was very surprised because it just didn't seem to add up. However, I will not spoil it for you guys, but I must say that she does suspect the wolf is either; Her mother, her grandmother, and Peter; The one she loves.
If you want to guess, feel free, but no hints mind ;)

Anyway, I guess that's all now.

Toodle pip!

This is totally me...

I'm still a child at heart when it comes to bubble baths!
So, here's a drawing on paint of be in the bath... With my boobies censored...
Yeah, basically when I go in a bubble bath I still love to make a bubble hat and beard and I get so happy and I never want to get out! I think I want to go and have one now!

I couldn't make my picture large, otherwise it just overlaps with the stuff on my sidebar and looks crappy. So....
The pictures say:
First box: *Le bubble bath*
Second box: Le bubble hat & beard. Me saying "Ho, Ho, Ho" Like Santa Claus.

Does anyone else do this? Or am I the only one? 
Oh well, normal isn't in my dictionary!

Toodle pip!

My childish habits.

Ok, so I was reading through Furree's blog, as per usual and  I have been meaning to do this for a while. I must agree with her that some of us go through these weird stages when we are young... Must be a child thing. Yeah my maturity level is still a bit low, but that's because I like to have fun!








Ok, so here is some proof that my childhood weirdness has still stuck with me! Please excuse the eyes. I had no make up on and I had hayfever.

My weird activities include:
Destroying dolls
Yes. I used to sit and destroy my dolls. I had a mass of Barbies where their limbs or heads were pulled off. I used to draw all over them and also cut their hair until they were bald. I don't even know why my mother even bothered getting me Barbies since all I done with them was sit there and destroy them. Oh, I also forgot to mention, I basically tortured them by tying them to a rope or something and chucking them out the window (while holding one side) and claim that they were 'nakey bungee-jumping.'

Talking to myself/teddies/my invisible friend
I still talk to myself. I don't know whether this is a sign of loopyness or not, but it's useful for when no one bothers to listen to you. Also, I used to talk to my favourite teddies and pretend they talked back... One day, when I was around 4, I had a polar bear teddy called 'Growly' and I went in a mood and started crying my eyes out telling my parents that he said he didn't want to be my friend anymore. The invisible friend thing is probably normal for kiddies, but my invisible friend was a young ghost girl named Katie. To be honest, I still have dreams of her sitting in my bedroom and crying. Also when I have these dreams, my parents always say they can hear footsteps coming upstairs and walking into my bedroom. Freaky... In the picture, that's my ghost friend and how I remember her from my childhood and how I see her in my dreams... Faceless, grey and brown hair.

Putting things in my bellybutton
I don't know why, but I always had a random urge to put objects into my bellybutton, e.g. fingers and money. This habit stopped when my parents told me; "If you keep fiddling on with your bellybutton your bum will fall off!" Me being very confused asked how and so they told me that my belly button was a screw that helped keep my butt intact.






I also had a very bad fear of the toilet for some reason. I don't even know why! I guess it was when it flushed and made that horrible noise... Or probably the fact that my brother was a bully and picked my up by my ankles and threatened to flush me down the toilet... I think it was that...

Oh, I do hope that Furree doesn't mind the fact I kind of copied off her with the pain drawings...They are just so cute and a good way to illustrate... So, also a big thanks to her for inspiring me and giving me ideas about a blog post and the little paint drawings!

Toodle pip.

Dear diary.

I am bored. Very bored.
I was thinking of writing a story but I don't know what about yet. Stories take a lot of time and imagination. I started off planning a story... But I don't know if it's good or not. It's basically about a family and their mother dies of cancer and their daughter, who is around my age, 16, gets very depressed because her mother was basically her best friend. So, the daughter tries to commit suicide but her father talks to her about things and etc. etc. and then eventually she cheers up a bit more and carries on with her life... I'm not too sure though.... What do you guys think?

Another thing, I may be bored but I'm also so really happy.
This is weird that I share most of my secrets with you guys and I don't even tell anyone else I really know, but I feel as though I trust you lot more because you's are all down to earth and you's are not immature. I have friends who don't really listen to me so you guys are there, which I appreciate so much! I wish I could give you all MASSIVE hugs!
Onto why I'm happy... It's boy things. Yep. So, I've been dating this guy called Harry for over a year, but recently we went on a little break, so we can have some time apart and get some stuff sorted (e.g. schoolwork, exams)
But now, we are really close again and he is always saying that he love me!
One day he just randomly said that one day he will marry me! I found it so adorable!

Okay guys! To conclude this utterly worthless blog. I am going to give a shout out to my three most favourite blogs ever! They are totally awesome and I just think you should generally check them out!

Furree Katt - Your blog is so funny and you never fail to entertain me! Your little pictures you draw are so funny and cute!You also comment on loads of my posts which means a lot to me! Keep up with the amazing blog! -massive virtual hug-

Fiona (Voice of a Nerd) - I love your blog so much! It is just amazing! You can tell that your blogs come from the heart. Some are very useful and some are very funny. You are definitely one of my favourite bloggers! -massive virtual hug- !

Yasmina (Butterflies in my Sky) - As you guys know, Yasmina is my best friend. She's the one who introduced me to this website and helped me make it all interesting and whatnot. Her blog is amazing too! She posts stuff about fashion and her life and it's just fun to read! Me and Yasmina go shopping together quite a lot and then a few minutes later her haul is up on here! No virtual hug for you because you can easily get a real one!

Thank you guys!
Oh and also, I might do a post about some make up if you's would be interested :D

Toodle pip

I'm alive!

Hey guys! Thought I'd update since I haven't posted in... 4 days.
I've had exams, but I'll be finished next week. Yay. I also think I have lost my ability to blog... I hope not.

So, the main reason I'm not blogging much is because of these exams and revision. I only have two science exams left now, which means I only need to go into school for science lessons so I get to go home early!
Yesterday, I had my first of three of the science exams and I actually found it quite hard :O

Away from exams now. My little Westie, Scottie is very old, bless him. He is currently 13, almost 14 and all he does is sleep and look depressed now. I feel very sorry for him...
Also, we have found quite a large lump on his side, so we are going to take him to the vets soon to get it checked out and make sure it's not cancerous... I hope it isn't. I love my little doggy... He is my baby.

Well... That's all I have for you...

SPIDERS ARE SNEAKY!

You guys know how I posted before about me and that spider having a staring competition with that huge spider and I looked away for a second and it randomly disappeared...

Well, I found that spider... It disappeared from the living room into my room. MY FREAKING ROOM.
I was taking some of the pictures I had up on my wardrobe door and then it crawled out from beneath the picture. I screamed and ran a mile.

Just wanted to share my scary experience to you all.

Beware of the spiders.

Take care, toodle pip.

Typical UK

Urgh, it was so lovely and hot yesterday and I thought it would be a good idea to stay indoors then I said that tomorrow I would go and sit out in the garden to try and tan...
When I wake up it is all cloudy, no sun in sight and there could be possible showers. Typical English weather.

On the plus side, I'm really stuck into the Red Riding Hood book. I must say, if you love reading books, then get that one read! Seriously! I love it!

On the plus plus side, the cod liver oil is also doing good on my knees. My knees don't go all stiff and achy any more and I can actually run upstairs without my knees cracking and going off... No more falling up stairs!

Oh, on the plus plus plus side, my mother got me a Green Lantern poster and it has Ryan Reynolds on it and he looks so delish! Yum!
I really wish he was mine </3

Ok, I think that's enough to my post...

Yo-ho, Yo-ho. A pirate's life for me!

Yarrr mateys!
I be going through a phase of lovin' de pirates!
I kinda fail at talking like one, so I'll stop... It all started when I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean. Then I came home and remembered I had the dead man's chest game for PS2.
Now, me and my friend, Chris, have a massive obsession with them! Is this normal?

Anyway, I drew a little picture on paint of us... My paint skills are crappy and I'm rather small... This is true, but the size o' the cap'n don't count, just as long as th' cap'n be strong and hearty - Arr!

So, this is the picture I drew!
Told you I was small and that my paint skills are crappy!






We have our own ship called the Ghostly Bullet - Oooo, mysterious, right?!

Well, me fellow scallywags! I don't know if this is normal or not... Well, it probably is for me and my friend.
Anyway, my ship is 'bout t' set sail and I be needing to get things ship shape and get all de landlubbers scrubbin' the poop deck while me and Commodore Creepy-Chris open a keg o' rum!

Avast me hearties!
I'll be toodling my pip now :3

Little update.

Well today, I went to see my friend, Thom, who I haven't seen in ages. We decided to go shopping, the best thing to do. So, today, I bought a book, a film and some cod liver oil... Yes, cod liver oil. This is because I could suffer from arthritis later on in life, it also says that it's good for your brain and skin, so I wanted to try it out... Oh, it's also good for your heart, so I thought it might be good since I have a few problems with mine :) Nothing serious though.
So, as you can see, I got Van helsing, which was £1.50, yes only £1.50 from the Cex shop... That shop is not a rude one either... Just got films and games in :3
I also got the book Red Riding Hood for £4 in Asda. The book is now a major motion picture from the director of "Twilight"
I also told you all of the shizzle about the cod liver oil.

Oh yeah! On Sunday, I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean in 3D with my sister and her boyfriend. Got to say that it was AMAZING! I couldn't keep my eyes off Captain Jack Sparrow, yum yum.
Yeah, I recommend that you go and see it. Maybe not in 3D though as it hurt my eyes... But everyone is different so... Yeah.

Anywho,
Toodle pip
