MAC Studio Fix Fluid

After years of searching for my perfect foundation I've finally found it!!
I'm a big fan of drugstore products, the idea of spending lots of money on one make up product really  hearts my soul. I've used just about every drug store foundation, the most recent one I've used is the Revlon Colourstay but I think they changed the formula and I really wasn't happy with the way it looked. I decided to just go for it and try a MAC foundation and I'm so happy I did. I got the Studio Fix Fluid in NC50 and its the perfect colour for me, it hasn't broken me out and gives an amazing finish. When I first started using it I was applying it with my Real Techniques Buffing brush and it made the foundation look really patchy. I now use the real techniques foundation brush and I can see a really big difference. If you're 'anti high end' make up I'd definitely recommend trying MAC products, I plan on taking a few more trips to my local MAC store.

Smoking in cars could be illegal by the end of the year.

( This is an online article I wrote for an assignment early January)


                               Enforcement officers will be able to issue a £50 fine for smoking in a vehicle and failing to prevent smoking in a vehicle carrying under 18s.

Last year an idea to ban smoking in cars carrying children received a majority vote by MPs.
Once again MPs and peers will vote on the proposal and if passed the ban will come into effect from October 1st.
The new law will apply to anyone carrying children in a car, not just parents. Although it will not apply if the driver is under 18 and alone in a vehicle.
There is also great support from the public for this ban, a YouGov poll taken last year found that 77% of adults in Great Britain agreed that smoking should be banned in vehicles carrying under 18s.
Scotland and Wales have also put forward plans to ban smoking in vehicles containing children.
Second hand smoke in children can increase the risk of asthma attacks, common colds, meningitis and cot deaths.
Dr Ilze Bogdanovica from The UK Centre for Tobacco Control Studies says the level of second hand smoke is higher in a vehicle because it's a very confined space.
According to Cancer Research UK second-hand smoke has caused strokes, lung disease and heart disease which have led to 12,000 deaths in the UK.
This will be the first smoking ban after smoking in pubs, restaurants and all workplaces was made illegal in July 2007.
''It's totally unnecessary,''.
But Simon Clark director of the smokers group FOREST said ''this is all about forcing people to give up smoking,''.


''As long as tobacco remains a legal product smokers do have rights and that includes being allowed to smoke where ever they want,''.

HAUL | ASOS, MISSGUIDED, NASTY GAL, NEW LOOK & LAVISH ALICE

So I've been really busy over the past month which you can probably tell from my lack of blog posts but I haven't let it get in the way of SHOPPING! I've bought some beautiful beautiful beautiful pieces and I still have a long wishlist of more things I want to buy, oh no!
I ordered from Nasty Gal for the first time ever, if you didn't know Nasty Gal is an American brand which have quite high prices. Although, their sale prices are really good. I got free delivery, shipping took 8 days and when the package arrived at the door I had to pay £30 in tax and duties -_- (which is not Nasty Gal's fault). When ordering I was really scared that I would order the wrong size as they of course do american sizes but I was so happy when trying the items on because they all fit me woohoo. Although I will be selling one of the items on depop as it's too short :(, I think I'll definitely be purchasing from Nasty Gal again. 
I say this all the time and don't actually do it but their will be regular outfit of the days coming very soon.
