Forever 21 and Lush haul!


So, on Wednesday, I went shopping to the Trafford Centre, and I picked up a few items there ^_^


First off, I went to Lush, as I had a free sample pot for an item there. Whilst in there, I picked up 3 different items.




The first thing I got was my sample of a face moisturizer, I haven't yet used this, but I am looking forward to, and hopefully buying a full pot of this!


The next thing I got was some Rockstar soap. This came free with my free sample, and it smells amazing! If anyone got their Snow Fairy body wash at Christmas, you will love this as it smells the same! I am extremely looking forward to using this!


The last thing I got was a Dragon's Egg bath bomb. This is my favourite bath bomb from Lush, and I pretty much get it every time I'm there!


Next I went to Forever 21! I love this store as it is very affordable and has some amazing clothes!


The first thing I bought was this gorgeous floral skater skirt. This isn't something I would usually go for, but the pattern drew me in and I just had to try it! I thought it would be perfect for summer paired with a simple white tee and some converse. 


This is a close up of the pattern.


The second thing I bought from F21 was this muscle tee. I love the pattern on it as most of it is backwards, which is different than other muscle tees I've seen.
I love the colour of this tee and I thought it would be nice paired with some high waist shorts over the summer


I also bought some macaroons whilst in Selfridges but I ate them yesterday, aha!

That's all for now, I will be posting my review of a product I recently purchased on Sunday!

Review or haul?

Hey guys!

So, the other day, I said I was going to post a review tonight of a product I recently got, however, I can't remember were I put it /.\

BUT, I went shopping today to the Trafford Centre, so I was wondering if you guys wanted a haul post or still want the review, and I'll post it on Friday?

Hey...

Hey, so...

Sorry I haven't been on in forever... I've been busy with stuff...

I actually started writing out a blog post a few weeks back, but halfway through writing it, I needed to do something, and guess which idiot didn't save the post?

So, this is going to be more of an update post.

I will be writing a review of a makeup product I got recently, hopefully sometime this week, which will be posted either Wednesday night (because I'm out on Thursday) or Sunday.

I am also attending a bloggers meetup on the 26th of July in Manchester with Nicole (coleoftheball) and Emily (disneylandandacid), so if you are going, let me know! I want to meet some of you!

Also, I am thinking of starting up a twitter account for this blog, as I already have an Instagram account (@daydreamsandmakebelieves), but I'm not sure... thoughts?

So, that's all for now, I'll be posting again this week!

April favourites!

Hey guys!

I decided I would do my April Favourites for you!


First off, I have my makeup favourites! I have been using these products so much recently and they are all products I use everyday! 
I have;
- NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in the shade Auburn/Red
- NYX Colour Lip Balm in the colour Shukran
- Nivea Soft Moisturizing Cream
- Primark Liquid Eyeliner
- Baby Lips in Intense Care 



Next I have Looking For Alaska by John Green. I love John Green's work and this book is no different! I cried at the book, and it has become one of my favourite books recently!


Next I have How I Met Your Mother. I am obsessed with this show and have the first 4 seasons on DVD!


Next I have my favourite songs of the month...
First off is How To Hide Your Feelings by Man Overboard. I never used to listen to Man Overboard until I heard this song. I have had it on repeat for ages and love all of their songs off the Heart Attack album, they have quickly become one of my favourite bands!


Next is She Looks So Perfect by 5 Seconds Of Summer. This band were my guilty pleasure band for a very long time, but this song is so catchy and I find myself singing it all the time!


Another song I have been loving recently is Dark Horse by Katy Perry. I love the tune to this song, which is what made me like it originally, but it has quickly become one of my most played songs! 


Lastly is a song called Bruised Not Broken by a band called White Clouds & Gunfire. I love this band to bits, and they are such sweet amazing people, and their music is fantastic! This is my favourite song off their album; For All The Non Believers, and they are amazing live!

Sorry it wasn't the best post, and sorry I haven't been posting much recently!

See you soon,

Holiday...

Morning guys!

So, in 12 days, I am going on holiday, and I was thinking of doing an 'Airport/Airplane hair, make, outfit and carry on essentials' for you!

But I need your opinion... should I do it?

Review; Seventeen Miracle Matte Powder and concealer

Hey guys!

So today, I am going to be reviewing Seventeen's pressed powder and concealer.


Now, I've heard good things about these products.... but honestly, I really do not like them.

I have the powder in Natural Fair, and I find it turns my face orange and patchy throughout the day, and it feels really cakey on my skin.

I also have the concealer in Medium, and I find that this doesn't give me a lot of coverage at all... and it feels really thick when I use it on my undereyes.

All in all, I really do not like this product and I will NOT be repurchasing this any time soon.... 2/10
