Photo: TotalFratMove.com I’m going to share with you my New Year’s resolutions for 2014. I was going to just do it for beauty, but I thought it might be more interesting if I included some personal ones too. BEAUTY 1. Learn to create a wing using eyeliner 2. Get better at using all types of eyeliner 3. Paint my nails more often 4. Sort through my collection and minimise it 5. Use more products/use up more products 6. Hold a blog sale 7. Donate to GiveAndMakeUp PERSONAL 1. Exercise more 2. Get in shape 3. Try more foods (asparagus etc) 4. Get my bedroom re-decorated 5. Get a helix piercing 6. Read more books 7. Blog more (3 posts a week) I don’t know if I will stick to every single one, but I will give it a good go. Let me know what things you would like to see on my blog, to enable me to create more and varied content. What are your resolutions for the coming year? ♥ ♥ ♥

I have used quite a few Glade candles this month, they are my new love! It’s nice to throw away a few things before the New Year and I hope to use a lot more stuff up next year because I hope to re-decorate my room. Here is what I have used and will be disposing of shortly! Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm Tube in Cherry It has taken me the longest time to use up this lip balm, over a year actually! It is a decent product and what sold me was the scent, it smells amazing. It smells so amazing that not long after purchasing I got two more tubes. It really is moisturising but it does take a while to soak in, which is why I only used it at night and I applied extra. After I’ve used up my other two tubes, I will not be re-purchasing because I actually prefer solid lip balms in stick form because it is not as messy and it tends to soak in a lot quicker. 10g | £2.69 Glade Candle in Brazilian Mango Flower I’ve used up another Glade candle. This one had a really soft scent and I r...

I recently came across this poem and I thought I would share it with you, as it is beautifully written. What do you think of this poem? ♥ ♥ ♥

I was browsing through LookFantastic.com looking at Benefit products and I came across this gift set. What first drew me in was the tin, it is beautiful. I was also interested in trying the included products and I thought it would be a good way to try more products from Benefit. It is inexpensive and would make a lovely Christmas gift for a beauty junkie. The products are arranged inside a gorgeous little tiffany blue/lime green inspired tin. Inside the tin is the insert which holds the products in place and it can be removed so the tin can be re-used. This gift set contains three Longwear Powder Shadows (1.2g sample) , one Ultra Plush Lipgloss (6.5ml sample) and one Creaseless Cream Shadow (3.2g sample) . The eyeshadows are Call My Buff (pale shell), Nude Swings (soft rose gold) and Thanks A Latte (golden brown). They are mean’t to be long wearing, feel silky soft and give your eyelids a soft wash of colour, which can be built to intensity. There are also three var...

As you may be able to guess from the title, I have done something I shouldn’t have. I PURCHASED THIS BABY! Source: Unknown I was just browsing through BeautyBay.com and came across it. I then made a split decision to buy it. It wasn’t officially released when I bought it and there is still no mention of it on BeautyBay’s Facebook page. The last that was said about it was that there is still not a confirmed launched date and they would keep us updated. Either way my order has been confirmed by e-mail and it should arrive just after Christmas, ready for me to review for the New Year! After I received my confirmation, I checked Twitter and the launch notice was put out this morning! I don’t think a lot of people realise this because I didn’t and they always (or usually) post big news to Facebook first! Grab it here while you can, they might have sold out by the end of the weekend! - It’s UK only at the moment! Have you already been naughty and have the Naked3? ...

Source: Telegraph.co.uk As you can see from the title, this is my next Becca’s Babble’s topic. I quite enjoy Christmas shopping, but I do sometimes find it stressful! It’s hard when people don’t know what they would like, so you don’t know what to buy. Plus every year some people like to set themselves a budget and depending on where you live, it can be hard to stick to it. I live in a small town and rely on public transport, so I buy most of my Christmas gifts online. Me and my Sister shop together for our gifts, so it is slightly easier and I have someone to carry my bags! (joking). We find it hardest to buy for our Mum and Dad because they never give us a serious or straight answer when we ask them what they would like. Last year I didn’t have a big budget, but this year things have changed, but I am not going to go crazy. It is also our Mum’s birthday a couple of days after Christmas, so we buy extra. It’s not too hard because I think women are easier to shop for, esp...

I was in Boots the other day and I saw this gift set and I knew I had to have it. I have wanted to try these Sexy Mother Pucker™ Gloss Sticks for a while now, but I wasn’t sure which shade I wanted. This gift set has three shades and because the set is £16, you are getting one shade for free. I would have waited for the half price Boxing Day sale, but I didn’t want to risk not getting them. The packaging is made out a hard black plastic and is barrel shaped, like other chubby sticks. The typography and colouring make the packaging look very sleek. To dispense the product you need to take off the cap, which is very secure and twist the bottom of the pencil. Soap & Glory say that the formula is a mixture of their Gloss-Fix Finish™ and Ultimelt™ Lip Shine & Shaping Technology. You get 2.72g in each stick and there are currently five shades to choose from. In this gift set you get three of the shades, which are Nudist , Fuchsia-Ristic and Plum Jam . They are packaged insid...

It is Christmas Wishlist time! I haven’t really got much on my list this year and it is not really varied, definitely a beauty theme. To be honest, I’ve got everything I need and would want. Like most people, I would LOVE more money! 1. Soap & Glory Loved & Glossed™ Gift Set | £16 2. Paco Rabanne Lady Million 80ml Perfume | £65 3. Stila In The Light Palette | £25 4. CARGO Vintage Escape Palette | £35 5. Wilko Wild Print Storage Cases | £10 6. Lady GaGa 30ml Perfume | £24 7. Soap & Glory The Yule Monty™ Gift Set | £60 (£27 on 13 th Dec) Like I said last year, I will be sale shopping again on Boxing Day, so anything I don’t get as gifts I can buy myself at discounted prices! What would you like for Christmas? ♥ ♥ ♥
