Rimmel fix and perfect pro primmer !!

Hay ! So sorry if i have been a bit absent on my blog and youtube recently , i have been so busy with school work its crazy but i shall not bore you with the details as this is not what this post is about !

I really love the rimmel fix and perfect primmer its soooo cheap and accessible only £6.99 for 30mls from boots !! And the packaging is good because you just squeeze it out :D

Primmers keeping your make up on longer  have always seemed backwards to me , they make your skin smoother . Surely if somethings smoother things will slip of much more easily , why walking on ice is harder than walking on gravel .But this primmer really does make my make up last all day !!

It claims to

  •  Smooth 
  • Resurface 
  • Protect 
  • Mattifies
  • Brighten 

It honestly does all of that and makes your face flawless !!!!!!

I recommend it for people with combo skin because it evens it out , i use it for school to make my make up last all day and also for special occasions when i want to look extra nice ! But i skip it on weekends when im just chilling !!
I love this product it for-fills everything i want a primmer to do so i love it and highly recommend it !

Thanks for reading xoxo Phoebe

Insomnia !!

in·som·ni·a

  [in-som-nee-uh]  Show IPA
noun
inability to obtain sufficient sleep, especially when chronic;difficulty in falling or staying asleep; sleeplessness.

Its currently 2.23 AM , a time when most people are asleep but NO not this chick the internet is far more appealing hehehe , i have web induced insomnia !!! I have been to my grandparents today and  when i got home found a barrage of christmas "hauls" in my youtube subscription box i started to watch them and then was inspired to do my own ,( im still unsure if im going to upload it or not because it may seem a bit bragy and there are so many already on you tube as found out) . My sister helped me film it and then we had a hour long discussion  about you tubers , who we liked and disliked , that threw me off schedule i was getting in to bed at about 1 when i should have been ages ago , the convo also made me realise how obsessed i am with youtube and the beauty/vlogging community ( but i suppose there are worse interests ). A little while later there was a weird man at the bottom of the drive , sitting . So my dad went to have a look and then he had  disappeared , my guess is that he stopped to rest whilst walking home from the pub it is boxing day after all so many people go drinking . So now it is gone 2 a clock in the morning , at least i can have a lie-in tomorrow especially as one of the things i was going to do tomorrow was write on this blog  but for the oddest reason i was inspired to do that now !! 
Btw sorry if there is spelling errors in this , its very late and my spelling is not good at the best of times ( thank god for safari spell check , another reason macs are awesome ) 

XOXOXO

The body shop , Satsuma Body Polish !!

This product is really nice , is bassically an exfoliant that you can use in the shower . It can be bought from the body shop for £9 ; expensive , but you get 200ml another great thing about it is that the body shop is against animal testing :D !!!!!! I love smell because it reminds me off the clementines that you get around this time of year and the smell is really realistic  !!Its the kind of smell that really wakes you up in the morning and it lingers on your skin  !!!! The packing is nice and easy to use !! The particles exfoliate your skin really well but are not tough and your skin dosnt feel dry afterwards ! 
Awesome product !!!!

XOXO Phoebe !!

Dance !!!!!

Jumbled in amongst the beauty community , there are few girls who make dance related videos and as i was browsing earlier i came across the "Dance Tag " And thought i wanted to do it , but im not in the mood to film a video ( In PJs , Bad lighting and im tiered ) . So im going to do it here 
  • When did you start dancing ? I did pre primary ballet when i was 3ish , but only for about a 6 months and hardly remember going  . I started again alot latter when i was in year 4 ( grade 3 , in america ) and but took a years break in year 6 ( grade 5 , in america ) started again in year 7 and have continued for 5 years , i am now in year 11 and still dancing !

  • What is your favourite dance style ? Currently i dance , Tap , Jazz and Modern ( I have dappled in ballet when i was younger ) My favourite is defo Modern , because it has the elegance of ballet but is fun and energetic like jazz !!

  • What are your favourite dance songs ? We used RAD set music for grade work but for free dance and jazz we use just use fun upbeat chart stuff like Rihhana and Pink , one of my favourite dance's was to a song called "black and gold 

  • Are you a competitive dancer ?  Nope ;  we don't do competitions at my dance school ! We do have optional exams , but rarely take part in them .

  •  What is one dance flaw you have that you would want to change, or a flaw on your body that would help you with dance? I would improve my sense of music and timing !

  • What is your favourite dance step ? Turns are fun but you get dizzy !!! 

  • What do you want to improve on ? Just keep trying and having fun !

  • Barefoot or dance shoes ? I like feeling the ground under me so bare foot if you can , but for tap you have to wear tap shoes and for some jazz dances shoes are better .

  • Tights or no tights ?Tights all the way i have mankey legs and also tights keep you so warmm :D 

  • What is your favourite dance wear brand ?I like pineapple :D  And Bloch and Tappers and Pointers , Im not a big fan of capetizo .
If you have any more dance related questions , just comment bellow .
XOXO

My clothes show experince




Recently with school I was given the opportunity to visit  The Clothes Show Live , this event is highly acclaimed in the bloging / you tube  beauty community so i jumped at the chance .
The event takes place in the NEC , Birmingham so a early start , 5 o'clock in the morning 0.0 , was required  to get there .
The event had lots of shopping  , brands such as superdry and jane norman where there also many smaller designers had stalls . As for beauty there was , Benefit , Orly , Rimmel London , Barry M , Models Own , Me Me Me , Jelly Pong Pong , Beauty UK many of theses company's had goodie bags but unfortunately they where not free (most costing 10 pounds ) but talking of free things i did get plenty of samples such as nivea cream and some tooth paste , dont ask o.o .

The really cute shirt i bought from David and Golliath , it was £10
Another cute shirt , this one is a bit more mature tho . It was also £10.
Models own was having a deal where you picked out 3 nail polishes for 10 pounds , Left to right : Pink passion , Utopia , Peacock green
And then you got a goodie bag for free :

The contents of my goodie bag !!!!!!!




SOOO I got all this :
 for £10 !!!!!!!!



I cant speak highly enough of the Night at a department store  catwalk shows , there was a performance from The risk and the choreography was great , to much to say in words about it . I will put some pictures bellow



Quite nice dont you think .............
We also went to a seminar giving us information about a career in fashion and meet some industry experts including the editor of more magazine . Which actually inspired me to start this blog as she said it would be a easy way to get your foot in the door of the industry , she asked if any of us bloged already and i wasnt sure wether or not to put my hand up because of my vlogs ( btw i do beauty videos and vlogs under the name the boutique1 on you tube )
Overall I had a great day and would highly recommend going next year , i defiantly am !!!!!
Hope you enjoyed reading my first blog post !!
