My GCSE Results + Catch Up!

Hey guys!

Excuse the awful picture, but I wanted to include it, so in a couple of years when I'm getting my A-Level results, I can look back and cringe! Haha..

Anyways, I remember in a blogpost once, I told you that I would let you know my results when I got them, as I wasn't blogging as much because of my exams, and I thought I kind of owed it to you! Anyways without further ado, this is what I got.. (I'd just like to say, I'm in no means trying to brag, or show off :P)

Sport- Merit (B)
ICT- Merit (B)

English Language- A
English Literature- A
Science -B
Additional Science- B
Maths- B (I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS ONE!!! WOO :D )
Dance- B
French- A*
German- A
History- A
Religious Studies- A*

I'm not going to lie, I am really happy with these results, because I really worked so hard on my GCSE's and especially with History and Maths, I was NOT expecting those results. I'm just feeling proud of myself, and all of my friends who got amazing results as well! I doubt it, but if you're reading this, well done guys:D

So anyways, time for a bit of a catch up! The reason I have not been blogging recently, is mainly because I now have a job, which takes up a lot of my time, but also because in my spare time, I like to hang out with my friends as we are all off to college soon, and we wanna spend quality time together:D

My dad has lent me his DSLR Camera, so I can take some really good (hopefully) blog pictures, so look forward to that!

Basically, my life is moving so fast at the moment, Im liking it, but sometimes it gets a bit much. I can't wait to start college, and make new friends and study things I actually want to do.

I got my results 2 hours ago, and already am sharing them with the internet... seems legit!

Anyway, I'll be back with a beauty post soon :D

Byee :D

:D :D :D

The One and Only Tag!

*This post is scheduled, I'm camping in France!*

I saw one of my favourite bloggers Shona from the blog freshbeautyxox do this new tag on her blog recently so I thought I would hop on the bandwagon!

So this tag is based on one question:

If you could only have one__________what would it be? And in a few words, why?

Primer

Benefit That Gal Illuminating Primer

I chose this, as I used this primer for my Prom, and it made my makeup last the whole night! Typically, on a day to day basis, I wouldn't use a primer, but I think for special occasions, its worth making the investment:)

Base Product 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

Even though I haven't used this in a while as I have been trying to minimise how much makeup I wear, this is my holy grail foundation, It has good coverage and has a natural finish. Revlon Colorstay is also awesome!

Concealer

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

I was a bit late onto the bandwagon with this, but I'm glad I discovered it! It really is full coverage and lasts all day. Again I used this for my prom, so I guess you could say I have a 'soft spot' for it! If you'll pardon the pun! Actually, thats pretty gross...

Powder

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

I have repurchased this so many times! It keeps you shine free all day, and its so affordable! 

Blush

Sleek Blush By 3 Lace Pallette

These are by far the best blushes I own. I love them all, the quality is amazing, and the colour payoff for a drugstore blush is phenomenal! 

Bronzer
Rimmel Natural Bronzer
I never used to use bronzer, but I have hit pan on this one, and considering I am so pale, that speaks for itself! I really like this as it looks natural, but it also really warms up your face. I like to use this to 'contour' even though I'm bad at it!

Highlighter
Benefit Girl Meets Pearl Illuminating face pearl
I rarely use highlighter, so this is actually the one I own! I like it because it doesn't look like I have just rubbed glitter onto the tops of my cheeks! You don't need much of it, and it gives you a nice glow!

Makeup Brush (Single)
Mac Blending Brush 217
Im so glad I invested in this brush! It makes appyling eyeshadow so easy, and effortless! I don't see how I used to apply my eyeshadow without this beauty!

Eyebrow Product
Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in Hazel
I use this every day on my eyebrows, and it keeps them in place well! It has a brush on top of the lid which makes it really easy and convenient. 

Eyeliner
Urban Decay 27/7 Eyeliner in Corrupt
I love this eyeliner! Its totally waterproof/smudgeproof/lifeproof! It isn't really black and its a deep brown colour which really flatters my eye color!

Mascara
Maybelline The Rocket Mascara
I love this. It makes my lashes look really long and voluminous, and also holds a curl really well! It isn't waterproof, but I would say it is smudgeproof, which is good!

Lipstick/Lipgloss/Lipstain
Revlon Lipbutters
I love them! They are so creamy, and moisturizing! They have so many colours to choose from as well and the colour pay off is amazing! These are so worth the hype for me!

Lipbalm
Blistex Daily Lip Conditioner
I use this religiously every night before I go to bed, and every morning. It makes my lips really soft and well, is just a good lipbalm!

Nail Varnish
Barry M Hi Shine Gelly in Greenberry
This is literally the best nail varnish in the world! You only need one coat, and the colour is gorgeous!

So that was my tag, and its really fun to do! If any of you guys would like to do this tag, feel free to, but send me a link if you do:D 

Song Of The Week | Outta Here

*This Post is Scheduled*

I was sat in a restaurant the other day and this song came on, and instantly it reminded me of back in the day! I whipped out my phone and 'Shazam'd ' it and then I remembered!

It's called Esmee Denters- Outta Here, and me and my friends used to listen to this all the time! I remember school discos would play this too!

Have a listen:D 

Skincare Haul

Hello:)

When we went to Spain, I packed way too much of my skincare stuff, and as a consequence I was forced to leave some of it behind... depressing times.

Anyway, I was in need for some more, and whilst I was out I saw some interesting things I thought seemed cool/intriguing and hence this haul.

Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot Treatment

I got this because it was part of a deal in boots (2 for £5) and I was repurchasing my face wash  I have used this and it isn't amazing, but I do notice it helps to calm down my blemishes a lot. 

Neutrogena Visibly Clear 2 - In- 1 Facewash/ Mask

This was a repurchase for me. I really like using this with my Clarisonic Mia 2 and It doesn't break me out so its a winner for me. I don't really use it as a mask, but when I have it seemed to have good results. 

3 Face Cloths

I popped into savers and as I was about to pay, I saw these and picked them up for £1. I was planning on using them with my Holy Grail (seriously in love with etc etc) Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish, but when I got home, I used up the last of it D: I'm hoping to get Bioderma when I go to France though!

Nivea Daily Essentials Refreshing Cleansing Wipes 

Thats a heck of a long name! Anyway, I got these because I am going camping in France for a week and these are just going to be more convenient to use rather than a cleanser. It's quite lucky I did pick them up though, as I ran out of my Liz Earle. 

St Ives Blemish Control Scrub

I am a fan of the St Ives scrubs even though some people find them too scratchy, but personally I prefer that as it makes me feel like I really have exfoliated well. I've tried the normal version of this, so I decided to get the blemish control one to see if it differs.

Biore Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser

I have always wanted to try this, because ice cleanser just sounds cool, doesn't it? Legit reason for wanting something... obviously. It was on sale in superdrug so I thought why not? I shall report back when I have used it more!

Nivea In Shower Body Moisturizer

Ever since I have seen this advertised I wanted to try it, and in Savers it was £1.99 so I grabbed it! I have used it and it does actually make my skin feel a lot more moisturized, and is ideal for me as I HATE putting moisturizer on after I shower.

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

Not really skincare but I thought I'd share anyway! This is literally the 4th time I have repurchased this! It's a holy grail product for me and I think everyone and their cat has heard of this so I won't ramble on...

Dove Treatment Intensive Mask

I have seen loads of beauty bloggers rave about this and when I saw it on sale for £1.97 in Superdrug, I just about died. Well, I didn't because I'm writing this now, and that would be a tad extreme over a hair mask... but you get my point! I have used this once and it makes my hair so so so soft! 

So thats all I picked up! If you want to see any reviews of any of these products please leave a comment!

Also I'm going to France this evening, so I'm going to write another blog post/s to go up when I'm away. I'm so nice!
