Finally sorting out my room and wardrobe

I'm the kind of person that if my room isn't perfect I will just let it become the biggest mess ever and just live amongst the mess. However, one of my new year resolutions was to start to become more organised I have taken the step to organise my room as how can one be organised when they live in chaos? The answer is they can't.

So now in May my room is nearing the organised line after persuading my mum to take me on several tips to ikea.

Don't worry I will be including photos you don't have to take my word for it.

It's birchbox time may 2015

I It's that time of the month again... The time you wait around for the postman to see if today is the day.

"Has your birchbox arrived today" the slight disheartening when it hasn't. 

But after what seems like forever but is probably only a day it comes. 

So what's in this months box?....

Morning routine and make up

The first thing I do in the morning is to clean my face.

I always use soap & glory, my current one being The Greatest Scrub of All. 
It's an instant radiance face polish. It helps to keep my spots away and instantly makes my face look more alive in the morning. 

It's the best drugstore product that I've found that actually helps with my spots. 

Before I start with my make up I use a headband to keep my hair off my face.


To start I apply a base of my foundation. I'm currently using Wild About Beauty Rose Water Illuminating Serum. 

I got this in Feburarys birchbox. It's normally £24 which is a bit more than I'd want to pay. 

Maybelline Baby Skin is a good drugstore primer that's more affordable. 

I apply the primer using a beautyblender. 

Foundation that I'm currently using is Sephoras 10hr wear perfection foundation. 
This foundation has medium coverage. 
You can see quite a few spots aren't as visible anymore, this being why medium coverage is needed if you have spots you want to cover up. 

Next is the concealer to apply to the last few spots that are visible. I also apply under my eyes to help brighten up my eyes. 

This is where I need concealer. 

You can see how the concealer changes the dark areas. 

Next is blusher. The brush is Sephora Pro Contour 74. 

The blush is Tarte Mirage. 

I really like this shade as it's not too pinky so doesn't necessary look like have blusher on. 

You can see a slight colour to the cheeks. 

Bronzer is next. 

My face is starting to look more defined once bronzer is on. 


Highlighter is next. I've only started using a highlighter but I really like using it. I'm using benefits Highbeam. 

Too Faced Cocoa powder foundation is what I use to set in my make up and smooth out my skin. 


After this all I do is my eyes. I put a base on my eyes first, Benefit Stay Don't Stray. 
Then just my eyeshadow, Topshop Long Weekend the brown shade. 
Final touches are mascara and lipgloss. The mascara is Benefit Roller Lash and lipgloss in Stila Stay All Day shade Nude. 
Please ignore the roots in my hair I'm trying to decide if I wanna get rid of my colour or not.
