Younique Look Book

 

I've been on board with Younique now since the 27th of November and id just like to say the response I've had, is astounding! I definitely underestimated the Younique business and thought that it isn't really worth the hype UNTIL! I received my kit and tried the products for myself. The pigment to the product is incredible, the primer makes my face feel silky soft and the fibre lashes.............well they are a god send!

 

When I first heard about the fibre lashes I thought to myself, people cant honestly be believing this! but the truth is there is something to believe in, I can say that this product have definitely stopped me buying useless lashes. The length and volume you can see build is simply remarkable and is completely on your terms!.

 

If you ever have the chance to purchase anything for younique then you will embark on a new need for this makeup!

 

Here is my Look Book with a few of the Younique products including the FIBRE LASHES!

 

Its so effortless to have fluttering lashes so, why not?

Time To Get Personal | Lucy Leadbetter

Time To Get Personal

 

I realise that this blog title may be a little bit misleading (its not that type of personal).

 

Its all about Christmas is the month of december and because ive been spending alot of time with my god children, i thought i would do something that was a little more personal to them and in general and not just a toy that they might get bored with.

 

I was only able to spring this idea up by working for the company that sell the teddys that can be embroidered. If you are wondering the company is called Cubbies.

 

There was a wide selection of limited christmas cubbies to chose from and because i love penguins i went for a theme of penguins with the stockings and teddys.

The picture below is of the cubies and stockings i ordered, I love them and they make me feel all fuzzled everytime i look at them.

 

 

 

Personally i think Presents that are a little more personal have a little more centimentality and make it a little more special but thats just my opinion.

Id love to see if you guys have any personalised gifts from anyone! Tweet me them! My link is below!

100DC - Day 1

100DC - Day 1

Today is my first day on the 100 day diet challenge, If you would like to read my previous post on explaining what this is click HERE.

Todays meals - Breakfast - 1 cup or granola
Lunch - garlic and herb chicken and veg
Snacks - 3 almond rounds and 6 Jaffa cakes (naughty Lucy!)
Dinner - Chicken pesto pasta

Working in an office for 8 hours a day, I find it hard to get a decent work out in. Any chance I get to get out of the office and run errands, I do it. Today I walked 3 miles, to and from work and then walking the dog when I got home. Now im going to do 50 squats and 20 sit ups. Im building up my workout as I've not worked out in a long time!.

I would love to know if any of you are doing this challenge along side me or even if your already doing it let me know how you are doing!.

100 Day Diet Challenge!

100 Day Diet Challenge

 

 

So today my friend asked me why I don't diet anymore, and my answer was both shameful and inexcusable. My answer was, because I couldn't be bothered. When I heard the words come out of my mouth I felt like I have let myself down, I had no excuse for not keeping up with my diet and exercise, except laziness.

 

I recently read an article on the daily mail, all about the 100 day challenge. This challenge can be interpreted as you please. Its entirely up to you what your goal is at the end of the 100 days, from dieting to happiness or even confidence. 

 

The goal I've chosen is weight loss.

I am currently 18.8 stone and my goal is 13 to 15 stone

 

To some people that might be wishful thinking but to me its my goal. Everyday for the next 100 days I will be uploading my progress of what I've done through the day and what I think I have achieved in the day and how my mood has been ext.

 

so here is to the next 100 days of this journey and I hope you join me on it and maybe join in yourself!.

Donatella Versace Pixiwoo Recreation

 

This week sam chapman (pixiwoo) uploaded a Donatella Versace makeup tutorial, click here to see the magic of Pixiwoo and be sure to subscribe to her channel.

 

I really liked this look even though it is a very heavy eye, which I don't always go for. Recreating this look was a treat, which is always the case when recreating a Pixiwoo look.

 

I didn't have the same stuff as Sam but I coped ok and still created what I thought was a pretty good match.

 

Base

MAC face and body foundation, with collection 2000 translucent powder and MUA bronzer.

 

Eyes

I used sleek oh so special palette for the eyes

I used bow for a base (substitute for m4 in smashbox full exposure)

On the mobile lid and underneath I used boxed (substitute for M1 in smashbox full exposure)

Along the lash line I used Noir along with blending to the side and a little underneith (substitute for M7 in smashbox full exposure)

On the upper and lower lash line I used Avon shock gel eyeliner

Mascara I used rimmel scandaleyes extreme black on the top, on the bottom I used MAC giga play in black.

 

 

 Lips

 

For the lips I used Avon pink pucker plumping pout

 

 

 

And that is how I recreated Pixiwoos Donatella Versace makeup !!

New Youtube Video !!!!

New Youtube Video

Yesterday i posted a new YouTube video! Ive never been more proud of myself because ive been kind of absent with the whole making videos speel. This one took along time to make, I just kept messing up and always saying why am I doing this. Then I realised when I got into it I really enjoyed making the video, there are alot of bloopers and I think bloopers at the end of a video always make it funny and give a sense of reality to the video with mistakes.

I wanted to start my video making off with a May Favourites Video. if you watch and you have a youtube channel please subscribe as it really help me and it would me very very appreciated.

thank you for reading and maybe watching!

Product Review - Avon Luxe Couture Creme Lip Gloss

Avon Luxe Couture Creme Lip Gloss

This is a product what when I read about it I was very excited to order, it was spoken very highly of and everyone loved it. Unfortunately for me it didn't show its fullest potential and im not a fan.

I was quite disappointed in the product overall really. It isn't nice to apply, there is hardly any pigment there at all and the applicator seems to bring out hardly any ligloss so it takes quite along time to apply 

I do realise that this review isnt the nicest, or you may not agree but i just want to stress that this is my opinion and you are entitled to you own as well as mine.

Product Review - Avon Luxe Palette

Avon Luxe Eyeshadow Palette 

I recently ordered 2 luxe palettes from Avon. This is the first review and the second one will be on tomorrow at the same time!!.

This is a collection of make up products in Avon. It is a little on the cheap side but its well worth it in my opinion.

 I actually really enjoy using this palette as I'm a huge neutrals fan. I think the applicators that come with is aren't the best but when have sponge applicators been any ones favourite thing to apply make up with!  

I don't use all the colours at once but i like to always put the middle colour in the inner corners of the eyes on any look I'm doing. For just £10 i think this is a steal of a product and one that's not meant to be missed. It doesn't crease fade or move for the duration you wear it, its one that is now a permanent tenant in my make up bag !!

thank you for reading!!

Product Review - Bourjois Healthy Mix Gel Foundation

Product Review

Today I'm writing a review about a product has had alot of rant and rave about it recently. Its the Bourjois healthy mix gel foundation

Ive tried alot of foundations recently because I could not find one that made me feel like my skin nice, soft and even. Every time I tried a new foundation I found that it would match my forehead and not my neck or vise verse, it is very irritating to say the least.

this foundation makes me feel very confident in my make up and that it is going to stay on all day and that the base looks very natural. the formula is a nice texture and when its applied its very easily blended and doesn't leave a sticky residue. It doesn't make me break out where ive found that alot of others do and it feels weightless when its on the skin. 

This in my eyes is a faultless foundation and hopefully it wont get discontinued but just to be sure im going to be buying 2 more bottles seen as its only £10 a bottle what more can you ask for !!!

In my opinion its a beauty bargain and one that's not to be missed!!

Thank You For Reading!!

LUCY GETS FITTER

Glitter Gets Fitter

The start of this month i said to myself, 'i want to be skinnier by next year', 'i want to be skinny' and i thought no, what i really want is to be fitter and be able to go for a run with my friends of a fitter physic. 

I have always been big, when there's food there id eat it no matter how much or little of it there is. Last year i noticed that i could do things that id like to because my weight and physical state was stopping me. Coming to terms with needing to loose weight and eating less has been a big struggle for me and now is my stopping point!!. 

One of my favorite youtubers Louise has started a daily routine of half an hour brisk walking with a motivational hashtag to get others involved. I feel this is going make ALOT of people want to do a brisk 30 min walk to doing an hours workout a day not just to get fitter but to also lose weight. 

Over christmas is my downfall, i would eat so much chocolate and junk food and use the excuse of 'its christmas' but this year was different. I didn't eat any chocolates or any cheese, the only thing that i ate that was a big portion was my christmas dinner. Not gonna lie i was very proud of myself!. I have also started to do a smoothie diet type thing. I would have a bowl of porridge in the morning and then half a can of soup with 2 crackers for dinner and a veggie and fruit smoothie for dinner. I feel amazing i feel like i have more energy, i feel like i can actually do a 1 hour workout routine and feel ok after it and not need a nap. 

heres a few snaps of my smoothie from today !

Ingredients

1 cup of kale

  1 whole avocado

1 cup of blueberries

1 cup of raspberry's

1 cup of spinach

half a pineapple

juice of a whole lime

juice of a whole lemon

a cup of water

 and a dash of salt

It does look a little bit look mud, but it tastes so refreshing and so nice!. i have this every day for my tea and i love it !!, you can find all the ingredients in any supermarket and it costs about 20 pounds per 3 days! 

well thats all from me for now!!

 thanks for reading !!!
