Hello!

hey, hello, hi it's me again. I am back, actually we are back to posting again. We've been so stressed and busy that posting here hasn't been our main prority. We did discuss stopping the blog, but we decided against it and are going to try to get back to posting regularly!

anyway today I'm going to do a September favorites, because I am a sucker for a good old favourites post.

TV and Film

This month I have been loving Switched At Birth, and if you follow me on twitter (which you should) you will know how much I am OBSESSED with the show. No word of a lie I watched the whole four eposides in three days. I just think it's amazing, I've never seen a show deal with the things it has dealt with, and deafness in the way of which the show has, so I recommend watching it.
Film wise I haven't really watched anything new, but I did rewatch all of the Twilight movies last week (lame I know) just because I love them, to be specific I love Robert Pattinson.

Makeup and Skincare

I don't really have many favourites as I don't have the money to buy new products at the moment. However I have been recently loving the NYC skyline mascara, I won it in a giveaway (first impressions coming soon!) and I just think it's amazing! I'm also still in love with my Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer and the Translucent Powder, as they are just amazing quality products that give such an impact in a matter of few seconds. The Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish will always be one of my favourites, it removes makeup so quickly and easily without being too harsh on the skin, and the Witch Hazel Moisturiser is also one of my holy grail products as it just makes me so soft and lovely and ah.

Music

I basically listen to the same music all the time which is just whatever is in my suggested videos. However I have been loving soundtracks this month, a little bit of Mamma Mia and Grease will never do you wrong. Mumford and Sons have also been my go to songs this month, but TROYE SIVAN. God bless him, the little nugget has brought out the most amazing album of which I am so proud of him, fools is defiently my favourite song, so if you haven't listened to it, you need to!

Youtube and Blogs

This month I've been watching basically the same youtubers. However there are a few new which I love. Alice, is an amazing youtuber, I love her videos and she is also such a nice person. Gaby is also another amazing small youtuber who is just the funniest of people. Another favourite this month has been Sol, who is just extremely relatable and amazing. Libby Jade is also amazing, her videos are so cute and just lovely. Isabelle is also an amazing little youtuber who's videos are amazing, she is just so funny and nice, she's also such a lovely person, so I recommend you check her out. I have also recently started reading Owen Frosties blog, which I think is excellent, I follow him on twitter and he seems so nice and funny, so he is worth a search. Tyler Oakley is decent too, very good and I think more people should watch him (all links at the end)

That's it! Everything I have been loving in September, and it's been a pretty good month. Other than general school drama and stuff nothing too drastic has happened which is just splendid. I really hope you enjoyed, and see you soon!

Lots of love,

Elise xo

Hello!

Today I'm going to do a unboxing/first impressions, as I recently won a giveaway run by an amazing youtuber called Taonga. Her videos are of such a high quality, they always get me hooked straight away. She is also just a generally lovely lady who radiates happiness (I will include her links at the end)

She sent me this lovely bag full of goodies. The bag is literally a perfect size, and will go with most outfits which is amazing! She also sent me a little pink bag, perfect to store my makeup in.

First, I got a The Body Shop Cool BB sample (glowing), Body Shop Nutriganics Smoothing Day Cream Sample, and the Nutriganics Drops Of Youth Sample. They all look brilliant, however I haven't used them yet, I'm saving them for a special occasion. Taonga also sent me two Body Shop little body lotions, which literally smelt to die for.

I got sent a Pilaten Blackhead Pore Strip, and I swear to god that thing was amazing! I am going to have to buy more because it literally worked wonders. The Kmart Coconut Water Face Mask is also amazing, I've used it once and I've still got some left but it made my skin feel so soft.

Taonga also sent me the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder, Kleancolor Tanned Rawr Matte Bronzer, an eyebrow kit and a pencil, a very very pretty eyeshadow (they are at my grandmothers house so I cannot tell you the names), a Skyrise NYC Lengthening Mascara, an Elf Essential All Over Cover Stick and two sets of eyelashes.

They literally create the most perfect makeup look, they have become my staple products. The quatility and last of all of them are amazing, and I'm in love with all of them. I'm saving the eyelashes for a party or something (not that I ever go to parties) but out of everything I think the Elf Stick has to be my favourite, it's so multi-functional and just absolutely gorgeous.

Taonga also sent me a body wash, which was Raspberry and Vanilla, and it smells lovely, like that is all I am using right now. She also sent me a chocolate bar, I cannot remember what I was because my family (yes, I hardly got any) ate it basically as soon as we got it. I didn't think I would like it, but it was actually so addictive. As well as some Lovisa Green Jewel Earrings, which are so gorgeous but have some how been stolen by my sister because she loves them.

I am extremely grateful for everything Taonga sent me because everything is wonderful. Her channel as I've mentioned it amazing, so I'd love if you checked her out. 

I really hope you enjoyed my little review, I actually really enjoy writing about products! See you soon with a new post!

Lots of love,

Elise xo

Hello everyone, firstly, I would like to make a quick apology for not uploading on time. I made a draft of this post and forgot about it, sorry. Anyway, today i thought that i would share with you a kind of tour? A tour of my desk in my room. So yesterday, i moved my room around and so re-organised my desk and i really like how it has turned out and so i thought that i would share it with you! I hope you enjoy and yeah, i'll just get on into the post!!

The Desk:

So my desk is white and i do believe it is from Argos. I am not sure how much it was but i think it was around £90. I am not a big fan of the desk as i think it sticks out quite a lot despite moving it around so many times in my room, but, i am soon buying a new one :) However, what i do love about it is that it has a lot of storage.
Underneath the desk to the left is like a mini bookshelf. It has 3 shelves which is really helpful. I store some of my favourite magazines on there and my favourite books and also my school work as well.

On Top:

So, i am so fussy about how the top of my desk looks. I am constantly changing how things are laid out on there and completely changing what is on there. But, i have finally decided on a layout that i like.

To the left of my desk i have a white skurar pot from Ikea and in there i store some of my favourite Lush bath bombs. I think this gives quite a lot of colour to my desk as my bath bombs are a variety of colours and it looks very neat and i just really like how it looks. Then kind of below that i usually would have my Alexa Chung 'It' book with my phone on top of it or my writing pad, but in this case it was my book. I have fallen in love with Alexa's book 'It'. I love the cover, the fact that it is so photogenic and the book in general! It also fits with the theme of my room and i just love it so much. Then as i said, i would usually have my phone on top of that, if you were wondering i have the iPhone 5s in silver with a clear case with a pastel pink border which was from Amazon for £1.99. Moving on to the right of my desk, I kept one of my starbucks cup (obviously i cleaned it) and i just keep my Bic Black Biro's in there, i just think it looks really nice and kind of tumblr?? Then beside that i have my all time favourite Yankee Candle; Pink Sands. I just love this scent, i would go into detail but this post would go on forever!! Then, next to my candle is my Eiffel Tower lamp which is from the Range. This lamp is massive but i love it so much. It is so cool and unique, the lamp frame itself is the Eiffel Tower and then on top is the lamp shade of course. I do believe this was quite expensive i think it was around £15-£20 but it is so nice and big and perfect for any room to be honest. Last of all, in the centre of my desk i just keep my Macbook and Macbook Mouse. I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch with Retina Display, for those of you wondering and i just keep it on my desk as i do most of my editing and homework on my macbook and like to do it at my desk, as that is what desks are made for right?

Above My Desk:

Above my desk, i have one picture in a picture frame along with a browny canvas, which are both related to Paris. They are both on different levels as i thought it looked quite effective and i really liked it but I'm not sure on whether to take down the one of the left.
The picture on the right i received as a gift from my birthday from my mum's aunt and so i am grateful for that, thank you. And the other canvas i also got my birthday from my nan and grandad, so thank you as well.


Disclaimer:

I don't want you to feel like I'm bragging about having this stuff as really i don't intend to as I'm not that type of person! I've either bought these things with my own money or i have received them asa gift for my birthday this year.

Thankyou for reading this post, i hope you enjoyed it!
Again, sorry about forgetting to press publish yesterday when drafting this post,

Lots of Love

Hello!
Sorry I didn't post anything last week, and that this week's post will be short. I just haven't been in the mood to write anything recently, for a number of reasons that I won't go into. However I didn't want to not post for two weeks, and let down anyone that reads this *if anyone does*, so I thought I'd do a review!

About two weeks ago, Superdrug sent my mother a gift box for being a loyal customer and I stole it. There was some other summery bits in the box, but I've been using this one the most, so I thought I'd give you my judgement.

On the back of the tube it says 'This lightweight yet concentrated lotion with Argan Oil assists in hydrating and nourishing the hair, to smooth frizz, and seal dry ends'. The instructions are 'Apply a small amount and blow dry into damp hair, apply to dry hair to defrizz and seal ends, or use post straightening to leave hair smooth with a natural shine.'

The actual product name is 'Iced Tropical Cocktail Miracle Ends Smooth Condition and Seal'. This product is amazing, it smells delicious, and I'm literally obsessed with it.

It works so well to make my hair straight and soft, and to seal dry the ends. Due to my hair type being funny, I have to use a 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner or my hair just dies. This is helping so much to add that extra bit of shine and strength that you get when using a separate shampoo and conditioner.

Out of ten, personally I would give it an eight, simply because I haven't been using it long enough to see if it has any long time effects on my hair, however I do really recommend this product.

Thank you for reading, and hopefully next week I will feel more up to writing posts!

Hello everyone,
I have literally been sitting her with a new page open on blogger trying to think of a blog post idea for about 20 minutes and nothing has come to mind.

If anyone tries to download this video of any sort and state it is theirs, which i doubt you will, but i have watermarked my twitter on the video so you can't.

Hello!

You're kidding right? We are at the end of June already, it literally feels like yesterday that I was writing my May favourites, crazy how time moves so fast!

TV, Films and Books-

I've recently started reading American Sniper, and although I'm not far into the book (as I've had other things to do) I absolutely love it, and I can't wait to finish it as I've heard some amazing things about it. I haven't been watching many films this month, however I have watched Blended a few times, which will always be one of my favourites, I just love Bella Thorne's character! I also haven't been watching much TV, however if you follow me on twitter you will know that I'm really into Long Lost Family, it just makes me so emotional, I can't help but cry both happy and sad tears, just the feels okay. Judge Geordie has also been another personal favourite, I LOVE Vicky Pattinson, one of my favourite people, she's so real and tells it as it is, respect for her.

Makeup and Skincare-

I haven't bought many products this month because I've had like no money, however I have been loving the Revolution pink lip gloss, it's a really subtle colour but just looks so amazing and effective. The next thing sounds really strange, but it's and anti - wrinkle creme. Okay I know I'm only 14, but it just feels so amazing on my skin, and smells so nice that I just use it everyday. ZOELLA BEAUTY, literally, when I get some money I'm straight to Superdrug to get myself some new products. Soak Opera will probably always be my favourite product so I'm going to have to repurchase that, however Kissy Missy and the new Fizz Bar are top of my list!

Clothes-

Once again, I haven't really had any new clothes favourites for this month. I did buy this really nice red and white stripey baggy top from Primark which I have been wearing everywhere, other than that just the normal clothes I wear.

Music-

Recently I've been listening to a lot of soundtracks from films and musicals, I haven't really had favourite songs from artists for some reason. I just like listening to the Grease soundtrack, and Dirty Dancing, strange yes, but I just love it!

Youtube-

This is literally always the one I write the most on. I've had LOADS of favourites. I've just started watching LimitlessEXP and oh my god he is hilarious, the channel is amazing, and I literally can't stop watching his videos. Taonga Thompson - Lawrence has been another MASISVE favourite this month, and I actually won her giveaway! When the package gets here I will do a sort of unboxing/first impressions sort of post. FouseyTube has been another personal favourite, I've just loved watching social experiments and I just find his channel so amazing, and creative. PrincessENoodle will always be one of my top youtubers, I just love the girl so much! Her channel is so amazing, well organised and perfectly edited, she's just had her hair done and it looks amazing, I'm so jealous. Isabelle Collins has been another favourite, she has such an amazing and inspiring channel, and she tweets the BEST things, so go look her up. JoshJoshBeauty is also on my list this month, his makeup looks are FLAWLESS, and I mean his channel is so amazing, please go have a look! For bigger youtubers I've been obsessed with Hannah Hart, Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart. I don't know why but I've just fallen in love, and find their videos so funny, when they are together I have to literally hold back the tears of laughter, best channels out their right now!

Anyway, thank you for reading my June favourites, and I really hope you enjoyed! If you like any of the things I've mentioned, or if you are going to try anything, just let us know!

* this post is not sponsored by any brand or anyone, this is simply my personal opinion☆*

Hey!

I thought I'd do an extra little post for you today (it's Elise by the way) because I'm sick *boohoo* and have a lot of spare time on my hands.

I want to talk about one thing that makes me happy.

In a world full of depression, lack of confidence and overall down times, there is happiness. Although you may have to look a little harder, and think a little deeper. The smallest things in life can give you the happiness which you need to carry on going. It could be anything, drinking a cup of tea, or watching a movie, that tiny bit of happiness to get from that, it makes a whole lot of differnece. And you can share happiness with others, smiling at someone when you walk down the street. Or offering to help someone with their shopping. That could change someone's life, it could save a life.
'Give someone a smile, it could be the only ray of sunshine they see all day'

I want to talk about one thing that makes me happy, and in general that is Youtube. I've been a fan for years now, and I'm found some amazing channels along the way. Such as ThatcherJoe, FouseyTube, Tanya Burr, Troye Sivan, just to name a few. I've found big channels, as well as small, and I'm so glad that I did.

People talk about finding channels that post amazing content, channels which are dedicated to their subscribers, and interact with them at every opportunity. You may not agree, or say that the majority of the time this doesn't happen. However it does, and their are amazing small channels out their that deserve much more credit, and support for what they do. I'm not saying bigger channels don't deserve it, because by god I've fell in love with some of the amazing people I watch, I'm saying smaller channels are just as good, and because someone hasn't pressed a button, or their channel hasn't been found. Doesn't mean they are any less than others.

So I want to talk about my favourite channel. Okay, this will probably sound extremely soppy and mega cringey, but I want to thank the channel.

About five months ago, I started watching a channel called ' The Lifestylists', two sisters, Amanda and Nicole. I fell in love with the channel. These two girls, they may live far away, and I may never meet them. But both Amanda and Nicole have made me extremely happy. Every video has been of such high quality, and generally so amazing. They recently decided they wanted a change, so they transferred to a new channel called 'Coco and Margot' and if you watch the last video on their old channel, you can see their reasons why. Both of them, have been the most amazing and supportive people ever. They are constantly active with their subscribers, and make every single one feel special. The girls deserve so many more subscribers, because they are genuinely the nicest people I have ever spoken too. I will continue supporting them for as long as possible.
You can find them;

Twitter- @cocoandmargot
Instagram- @amanda_margot and @_nicole_emily

In their channel I find my happiness. Re - watching their videos everytime I'm down, or feeling not too good about myself or the world, just makes me feel so much better. I recommend, highly, please go watch them, share my happiness.
'Life is not about making other people happy. It's about sharing your happiness with others'

No matter what you find happiness in doing, whether others like it or not. Please don't stop fighting for self happiness, or even happiness in the world. As I've said, the smallest thing can make you happy. Often people don't stop to enjoy the little things in life, like a good movie or a lovely day, happiness comes in all shapes and sizes.

And today, I wish you are happy♡

Lots of love,

Elise xo
