TAG: What's in my bag...

I've seen this tag going for a while now and thought i'd jump on the bandwagon!




So this is my bag.... I got it from next in January. I never spend loads of money on my bags because i always get bored and buy a new one, then the old one gets forgotten about! I think it's time for new a new bag round about now!! :)

Fistly is the stuff i literally couldn't leave the house without, my house and car keys, my purse and my phone!


I always carry around my diary, I'd be lost without it because my short term memory is terrible. And i use this cute little notebook for work.

I always carry my umbrella with me because you never know what the crazy british weather is gonna do next and my sunglasses come around with me in the summer. I also have a comb, a pen, my ipod and some carex hand gel.

These are the only make up products i carry around with me. I never carry a make up bag, because my bag isn't big enough but also because i don't usually touch up througout the day. I carry blistex intensive moisturiser, vaseline rosy lips, whatever lipstick i'm wearing that day. Today it was barry M 101 and 147 and I always have a compact mirror with me!

So that's my bag! :)

Just one more thing... yesterday i picked up 'red' magazine, purely because it had a free make-up bag with it. It's actually a really good size for a freebie! It comes in white aswell!

YAY for magazine freebies!! :)

Stay Beautiful xXx

Magazine Freebies!!

So yesterday I ended up with two magazines with freebies that come with them :) First of all my mum came home with 'Marie Claire' which had a free copy of 'If you could see me now' by Cecilia Ahern. I'm excited to read this because i absoutely loved 'ps, I love you'. I feel like i haven't been able to enjoy reading for pleasure for so long because with it being my final year at uni i haven't been able to justify picking up a novel over a text book!! :( Anyway now i'm finished i'm looking forward to getting into it again!




















And the other magazine i got was Glamour who are giving a free benefit 'bad gal lash' away with this months magazine. This was something i HAD to get, because last year probably at the same time they were giving away a free benefit lipgloss and i managed to be too slow on the uptake and i couldn't find the magazine... ANYWHERE!! So I was detetmined not to let it happen again and successfully picked one up last night :)

So this is what the wand looks like, it's pretty big but has a small point at the end so it works well for getting the small lashes in the corner of the eyes.

This is my eyelashes without any mascara on.

This is two coats of the mascara.

This is my eyelashes with the mascara on and after curling them.


So i've only applied the mascara once so at this stage i can't really comment. First impressions are good though and i'm impressed with how much it curls your lashes. As you can see from the photo's there is hardly a difference between them from before and after they had been curled. This is rare for me since my eye lashes are pretty straight. So... yay for magazine freebies!! :)
