New Motivation Resolutions?

I kind of missed out on New year's resolutions but I thought of new motivation resolutions! January is nearly over but it didn't feel like a new year for me so I thought I'd start a new motivation year! I want to be more motivated in every aspect of my life, I've said it a thousand times before but by posting it here I suppose I'll have to stick to my motivation
resolutions! I've included my blog and beauty resolutions below;

Blog/YouTube - do more on both!

I hardly ever post on here or make videos and when I want to I always find another distraction or my camera has no battery and stuffs like that, so I want to become more motivated to do more posts and make more videos and not make excuses not to!

Beauty - use more of what I have!

I have loads of beauty products and most of them are left neglected in the drawer and whenever I look through them I find products I really like but never end up actually using them! I always get stuck in a rut and use the same everything for forever! I want to use the products that I already have including body and hair products (I have so many body lotions and butters - it's ridiculous!) and make sure each product gets a bit of love and not neglect!
I also want to stop being lazy with my skincare and actually stick to my routine EVERYDAY! Washing my brushes more frequently is also going to be a priority, it's important to clean your brushes and I'm really bad when it comes to washing mine!

Hopefully I can stick to my new motivation resolutions!

A little bit of organisation

Staring at that cluttered desk of  mine, I decided enough was enough. Order was needed in my make up, and it was deperatley needed.

I cleared the little miscellanious drawer of mine that contained everything from a foot files to shampoo samples, and replaced a section with my everday essential make up.

 I also sorted out a little desk organiser and put my skincare items, a few nail polishes and hair bits and bobs into it.

Also thought I'd shove a picture of my brush pots in here as well for good measure.

You Are Worth It - Blu Tack Nails

Nails. Mine are normally left to their own devices or smothered in some type of clear nail polish. But this week they have been carefully painted. I applied L'Oreal Colour Riche in 617 You Are Worth It.

 In the bottle it looks a lilacy  grey shade, but in bright daylight it is more of a blu tack colour!
It applies well and the brush is just the right size to give good application. One coat is fine but two coats achieve a better look. It has a nice glossy finish as it has a built-in top coat.

I think it is a gorgeous shade and I have had a lot of people asking me what colour I'm wearing and telling me that they love my nail polish, so they must like it too!
 I'll definitely be checking out the other colours in the L'Oreal line soon!

Everyday Face #1 - Summer

It hasn't exactly been summer weather in the UK recently but at least we can pretend its summer with our clothes and make up!   This is the everyday face I've been wearing a lot this 'summer'.

Everyday Face 

                                                                                    I've only been using a minimal amount of products so this only includes 6.  I've been wearing these  constantly and each product is one of my favourites.        

This look is simple and I tried to keep it quick and easy to do. So I applied my tinted moisturiser using my fingers as it is a quick and easy way to apply it. This make up took under 5 minutes to do and is perfect for lazy holidays when you wake up late!  

Products I used 

The products I used;

No7 Triple Protection Tinted Moisturiser-Fair

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer-Ivory

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder-Silky Beige 

No7 Natural Blush-22 Candy Pink

No7 Fanomenal Lashes Mascara-Black

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain-Honey

I love wearing this look and my favourite product is definitely the Revlon Balm Stain, the colour is amazing and I literally wear it everyday. As it is in crayon form it is so easy to apply and gives a lovely sheen to the lips. I have two of these at the moment and NEED MORE!

I'm Sorry...

Okay, you can definitely ring Blogline now (imaginary service for neglected blogs, yes I did just bother to make that up!)   It's been a long, long time. Three months six days to be exact, I just had nothing to write about. I'm only apologizing to myself as no one exactly reads this!

I hope to be posting more from now on. I'm going away for a week to Paris so I will apologize for that in advance; Sorry!
 I'll try and post a few things today and over the weekend, fingers crossed, really crossed.

Welcome, healthy lifestyle

After neglecting my poor little blog, I thought I would give it some love;


I thought I would talk about health and fitness. Recently I decided to concentrate on what I was eating and try to exercise more. 

The Food Diary
I started my food diary on the 1st April. I write in everything i've eaten each day. If I eat something 'bad' then I'll write the word CHEAT and the offending food item. Writing my food diary has been a really useful tool, if I seem a little bloated I can refer to the food diary or write in what i thought it was. It also acts as a bit of an insentive to eat healthily and avoid the 'CHEATS' to make my diary look nice.

Diet
I mean diet as in food. I've been shaking up my diet, trying not to eat sweets and eating more fruit and vegetables. I'm trying to avoid having carbs for/with dinner but allow myself to have pasta for a meal perhaps once a week. Eating after 7pm has been stopped on most days and the drinking of more water has been welcomed.

Exercise
I usually do ballet twice a week and tap once a week, but it isn't exactly cardio vascular endurance. I also go to circuits with my Mum and sister once a week, we do a lot of weight training as the instructor says, 'when you start weight training the weight will just drop off.' (Due to our dodgy scales at home I cannot confirm if this is true!) I was doing a bit of zumbaing from the DVD during the holiday, but need to remotivate myself to do it again!



I'm hoping to keep this up to sustain a healthy lifestyle, let's see how it goes!

So...Hey

Yeah well this was fun, empty blog with absolutely nothing on it. I actually forgot I made one...
(I seem to like elipsises)
So this is my Hello. Hello. *shakes hand*  I'm Amy, age 14 and a newbie to this whole blogging thing. I have a YouTube channel which I am slowly starting to upload videos to. If you haven't already guessed this blog is about make-up *big sigh* But hey, give me a chance!
I've  been into make-up since I was quite young and stumbled upon beauty videos on YouTube, I knew they were there but never really watched them before. I really wanted to make my own channel after that and one day filmed myself doing my make-up and decided to upload it to the channel I had made in preparation for that moment. After that i caught the YouTube bug, it was so much fun! Then the camera broke, so I have been trying really hard to film videos on my laptop etc. (My Daddy has promised me a video camera!)
Just bear with and I'll find somehing interesting to blog about soon.

                            Keep watching, xx
