Two posts in one night? What is happening?!
Anyway, i'm going to do a beauty tag, which I have seen on this blog here
It's the "Would You Rather" one, and when I read it, I thought it sounded pretty interesting, and I wanted to try it out, so here I am!

1. Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks and lipglosses, or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?
-This is an easy one for me, I would rather lose all my palettes and eyeshadows. Why? Because I don't use them that often, and if I do, it's more neutral colours, whereas I am a huge eye/lips girl. If I don't have eyeliner and mascara on, I'll have bright red lips, and vice versa. Sometimes I have both! 

2. Would you rather chop off all your hair, or never be able to cut it again?
- Chop off all my hair! Because it would grow back (plus, i've cut it really short before, and my hair grows quite fast) Can you just imaging the split ends if you could never cut it again?! Plus, you might end up like this woman ..

3. Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
-Pink! I actually prefer coral colours, but I really don't suit them at all!

4. If you had £1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
- As much as I love makeup, I'm going to have to say clothes, mainly because i'm always moaning about not having enough clothes, and makeup is so expensive nowadays you would probably get a lot more from your money buying nice clothes. Plus, they'd last longer than makeup!

5. Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
- This is a hard one.. i'd probably say lipstick as eyeliner, because with eyeliners, you can only really get either really dark, or really bright, so your lips would look strange. With lipstick however, you could get a nice brown lipstick, and use that on your eyes?

6. Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?
- As much as I love Sephora, it's non-existent in the UK, so it would be a bitch to only shop there, when there's MAC counters everywhere in the UK, so MAC!

7. Would you rather only use one eyeshadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?
- Easy, like I said in question one, i'm not an eyeshadow person. If I so wear eyeshadow, it's always in browns, and neutral colours, whereas I love lipsticks, so I would have to only wear one eyeshadow.
8. Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
-I love winter clothes so much, but they would be so warm in summer.. but then again, i'm always cold.. so summer clothes in winter would be really bad.. I think i'd have to go for the first option.

9. Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year long?
- Bright nails! As that's only what I wear anyway, apart from the occasional deep red or purple. Plus, brighter nails are happier, and cheer me up.

10. Would you rather give up your favourite lip product, or your favourite eye product?
- As much as I love my Kate Moss Rimmel Lipstick in shade 107, I couldn't live without my Maybelline Falsies Effect Mascara, as I wear that every day! Without mascara, my eyes look teeny!

11. Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail, or a messy bun?
- Messy bun, definitely, as that's basically what I do on a regular basis anyway! Except it's messy in a not very cute way, more a sort of, what the hell has that girl got on her head is it a birds nest, way. 

12. Would you rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
- Never use lipgloss, as I don't use it often anyway, but I always paint my nails. (Currently, they're bright red if anyone's interested)

13. Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all, or sharpie them in everyday?
- Well this is a hard one. I think because my eyebrows are so dark anyway, if i did it tactically with a dark brown sharpie, it wouldn't look as bad as if I shaved them off, so, sharpie them in everyday. 

Would you rather live without makeup, or without nail polish?
- Without nail polish! I definitely could not go out without concealer/mascara on!


So, hope you enjoyed this little questionnaire that I did! I tag all of you reading this to do it!

This is what it looks like on my lips

So a while back, I purchased this little gem from Lush, it's the Bubblegum Scented/flavoured Lip Scrub.
Firstly, it smells amazing. It does what it says on the pot, and smells like candy, and bubblegum, and everything sweet mixed up together. It is lush. (excuse the pun). It reminds me a little bit of their Snow Fairy scent, which I also love.
On the other side of the pot it says you can lick it off your lips (yes, really), and wow, it tastes so lovely! Sometimes I put it on, just so I can lick it off! (I wish I was joking..) It tastes exactly as it smells, if that makes any sense.
It was a little on the pricey side at £5.25, as as much as I do love it, I feel like it was a teeny bit expensive, for what you get, but then again, Lush is like that I guess, but it just smells and tastes so damn good!
Onto the actual product then..
I think it worked really well in scrubbing my lips, and it made them feel tingly and smooth, and truly scrubbed, so I can't fault it there.
However, it was a little hard to apply, as you can see by the photos, it literally was just little grains of sugar, and all of the ingredients, so it was quite awkward to use, as you have to use your fingers.
Also, as you can lick it off, I found myself doing that on regular occasions. But I thought that licking your lips was bad for your lips and made them dry? (That's what I was always told anyway!) So I stopped that. I now wash it off, which works better.
On the downside, one thing I hated about this product was that If I rubbed it onto the skin around my lips accidentally, it did make my skin go into a kind of rash, and little bits peeled off. (TMI I know) So I have to be really careful when applying it.

So overall, I thought it was a really enjoyable product, and I think I will be repurchasing it when I run out, because I liked it that much!
I would give it 4 out of 5 stars :)

If you would like to purchase this product, then i'll put the link to the bubblegum one below. You can also pick it up in all Lush Stores in a range of flavours, including Popcorn!

Well, I know i'm late on the bandwagon, but The Saturdays showed us their new video, and song, for their new single "Gentleman" recently. Now don't get me wrong, I love the majority of their music, and I love their style - most of the time.
However, this video/song failed to impress me. The song appears to be about looking for the perfect "Gentleman", and the video shows them working in the garden, hanging out washing, and dressing as men. They tried desperately hard to hide Rochelle's bump, as at the time it was shot, she was still pregnant. Take a look. 

And at the end, they even kissed ... themselves...

"You're not a lady if you're always on your knees"

"Cause most dudes just hit it and quit itAnd then they wonder why most girls just spit it" 

 "He already had the milk, so why would he go buy the cow?"

 "I'll let you taste my rainbow"

I'm not going to lie, I did laugh a bit when I first heard this song. Especially when they started rapping, mentioning almost all Americans. Trying too hard to break America?

" I need a Ryan Gosling, I need a Robert Pattinson, somebody I can take to Mama, I need to find my Obama, I need a Jonas Brother and, how about a Denzel Washington? I need a Kellen Lutz, and a Channing Tatum, throw 'em my way, I'll date 'em. I need a Drake, I need a Ludacris, I need a Wheezy, I don't care who he is, heard 'em say, I need a Kanye, he ain't a gentleman, but I'll have him anyway. George Clooney, Lamar Odom, Larry King, I like 'em older. All the gentleman from all around the world, holla at me, holla at me, let me be your girl"

So, it’s exam time, once again, and this is the point in the year where everyone I know, including me, becomes a recluse for the five weeks we have off to study.

When I was in my younger years at school, I used to think that the “older ones” were so lucky, because they got so much time off school. I just thought it was like one big holiday to them, with a few simple tests in between. How wrong was I?!

I didn't think about the stress exams would cause, because school was a ten million times easier back then. I was worried about forgetting my homework, or my PE kit, or worrying because I hadn't revised for a class test. But they didn't determine your future. These exams do.

I’m from Scotland, therefore these exams are probably a lot different to most people reading this (if anyone is reading it!). In Scotland, when we are 14/15 we sit our Standard Grades, which I think are the equivalent to GCSE’s in England, although don't quote me on that! From the ages of 16/17 when we leave school, over 2 years we sit Int 2’s/Highers and in our last year at school, we can choose to do more Highers, or even Advanced Highers.
This year, I am doing five Higher subjects in Art and Design, Graphic Communication, French, Maths and English. The entry requirements for the various courses I am leaving open are all 2 A’s and 2 B’s, 3 A’s and a B, or thereabouts, so it's stressful.
Exams basically determine your future.
This is a stressful process. You revise the whole year for one exam in each subject, and no matter how hard I revise, I panic on the day.
“I don’t know anything!” 
“Do we need to know this?!” 
“I need to cram everything this morning!” 
And my favourite, according to everyone that knows me, “I’m going to fail!”
I know I must annoy people with my negative attitude to Exams, but I can’t help it. I’m just so nervous about mucking them up, that I go into panic mode, thus creating a panicked atmosphere around me. So, you don't want to be around me on these days!

So right now, I’m taking half an hour out to write this, before I go back to my revision in Art, as I have an exam on Wednesday.
So I can only give advice that I have been given myself, and I am trying to follow it.

“Don’t give up. Persevere and you will get there. The hard work will pay off. Just think, after this, you can relax, once they’re done, there’s nothing you can do except wait.”
