Orange Smoky Eye


That's right, an orange smokey eye. You heard it here first!

I know this is probably not true, but a girl can dream right? 

As I told you in my previous blog I received one of Younique's amazing eyeshadow palette's for Christmas just gone.

(I really want to say Christmas this year...even though I know It's actually last year...)

I am a little bit in love with this palette. The shades are insane and are super pigmented.

I decided to put a look together at the weekend with my favourite colour being the main focus. It's called Vintage and is a gorgeous orangey pinky colour.



Another thing I love about Younique's colours is that they change depending on skin tone, which I think is great as it means everyone gets a different shade of awesome.

For this look I have taken Vintage all over my lid, and have then used Suspicious in the crease and outer corner and then blended it with the fluffiest fluffy brush I own.



I have then taken Vindictive and put a tiny bit of this in the inner corner of my eye.

To finish off the look I have used my Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Noir and then Younique's Epic Lash Mascara (Another firm favourite if you are in the market for a new mascara!) with some Boots eyelashes to finish the look off!



I hope you like it!

Much Love,

Tk xx

Jo Malone


One of my best friends brought me a very special gift this year for Christmas, and she was very naughty doing so!


As you may well know, I love Jo Malone products, but they are rather expensive, which unfortunately means I very rarely have any products.

My favourite scents that they have are Wood, Sage and Sea Salt as well as Velvet Rose and Oud.

Knowing this, she brought me a 50ml size of the Velvet Rose and Oud cologne, which I freaking love!

I was super spoilt, and now I want everything! I think I may have to treat myself for my birthday in February to some more of their gorgeous scents.

I also want to get the Velvet Rose and Oud candle to make my house smell as gorgeous as I know do, but I think Jack may weep if I tell him how much it is for a candle!

What are your favourite Jo Malone scents? Are there some others I should try?

Much Love,

Tk,

What I got for Christmas 2017


Hi guys,

I have just uploaded my first video of the year!

In it I discuss and show you what I got for Christmas this year. I was extremely spoilt by all my amazing friends and family.

Please take a look, the link is below.








I will be aiming to get a video up once a week, on Sundays, and blog posts at least twice a week.

Much Love as Always,

Tk

Christmas Fun.



I hope you have all had an amazing Christmas filled with fun, laughter and time with your family and friends, after all, that's what it is all about.

I have been obscenely spoilt this year, by friends and family, but especially Jack. He has definitely outdone himself this year and I am so very grateful.

We had Christmas morning at home together, before popping in to see my mum and step dad, before going to Jack's parents to spend the rest of the day with his family.


As our first Christmas spent together, we wanted to make the most of waking up, having a coffee, breakfast and presents.


Boxing Day was spent back at my mums, with my brother and his family, as well as my grandma.

A lot of my presents were Harry Potter related, as per! Everyone knows how much I love Harry Potter, and they did not disappoint! As well as my Harry Potter goodies, I also got some amazing beauty presents.

My friends and family all know me very well, and I received loads of things that I love.


Jack, as mentioned before, went above and beyond. So as well as my stocking goodies, he also got me a rose gold Fit Bit charge 2, and the MacBook Pro I always wanted and that I am currently writing this on now.



Surprise isn't even the word. I was shocked and so so happy. If you read my previous blog 'All I Want for Christmas' I mentioned that I wanted this but knew I would never get it, and he surprised me massively.

I know Christmas isn't about the presents, and It has been so nice spending time with all our family and friends who we don't get to see as often.

I will also be making a video on what I got for Christmas which I am aiming to get up at the weekend.

Much Love As Always,

Tk

All I want for Christmas is...


It's been a while... I've been super busy in my new role, loving it but I'm constantly knackered!

I then realised that it is only 1 month until Christmas Eve and started looking at what I would love to see in my stocking or under my tree.





First up are these super cute rose gold string lights which are an extremely reasonable £7.99 on Party Pieces.
I love having twinkly lights in my house and these are small enough that they don't look bulky or get in the way when they aren't switched on too.

This Jo Malone Christmas ornament gift is so cute! At only £22, it is a steal. There are two mini gifts within it, and everyone knows I love minis.
Inside is a Creme and a cologne, perfect stocking filler!

I love me a nice scarf... I maybe have a few too many, but can you ever have too many?
I found this gorgeous Pastel Stripe scarf from ASOS, and it is only £18, and it looks super cosy and I know it would keep me warm on the cold winter nights we are having.

Oliver Bonas is one of my favourite shops, and they have a great selection of winter hats this year. There are so many I like, and I had originally found a different one, and then watched Fleur's video and now want this one! It is so pretty and will easily go with many outfits, at £22 it may be a bit much for a hat, but you would definitely get a lot of use out if it.

Now comes the beauty!

Again with the minis, Charlotte Tilbury have this awesome set of three mini lipsticks for only £29. The shades included are Kim K W -  a lovely nude, Secret Salma- a deep rose plum shade and lastly Carina's Love- a great red siren shade.

Since using my mini (do you see a theme here...) Emma Hardie Cleansing Balm, it has reminded me how much I love it. I also need a lot of new Muslin cloths as all of mine have had to be chucked away as they have finally given up the ghost. Usually, it is £39 for 100ml, but it is down to £25 on Feel Unique, what a bargain!

I have found a Prep and Prime set, also on Feel Unique, by Real Techniques, that I didn't even know existed. It has a really handy spooly to get as much product as possible out of everything. This makes me very happy!

I'm a little bit in love with this Blush Palette from NARS, £49 for 7 shades is a bargain and the packaging looks super pretty too! Always a win!

OMG! The Urban decay NAKED Vault is now 42% off and is currently only £175! Usually retailing for £301.50, and therefore would never be on my list. This is the biggest bargain of all. Coming with all three of the first palettes, as well as 9 lipsticks!

Also, not forgetting the new NAKED Heat Palette, for £39.50 on Feel Unique.


Moving away from Beauty as I could go on for days...

I have been wanting a Mac Book Pro for as long as I can remember. My laptop currently has to be plugged in at all times, as well as having a keyboard and mouse as the track pad and keyboard on the laptop don't work, and as much as Jack hates it, I am an Apple girl.

I'm not sure I have been good enough this year for Santa to get me this, but my birthday is in February so maybe he can pass it on?!

I would also love a new camera as mine got a little bit battered on its journey from Australia when I accidentally left it there. Having heard great things about the Olympus Pen, from many people, I think my heart is set. Although, if you can recommend me something better, please let me know!

I think that's enough for now as I know I will be spoilt regardless as I always am, because everyone is naughty!

What do you want for Christmas?

Much Love,

Tk
