LUXURY BAGS AND SHOES WISHLIST

If you’ve been following my little ‘luxury wishlist’ series, you’ll know that I’ve done clothing and beauty, so the only thing left is accessories. Today I’m going to be talking to you about what I am dreaming about bag and shoe wise. 

HOW TO STAY POSITIVE

Everyone can go through a period of time where they feel stressed, and find it hard to keep a positive mindset. I can sometimes be like that, and specially now that I have exams coming up, I often feel trapped within my own mind, and I need different things to help me stay positive all the time.

YVES SAINT LAURENT-MATTE FINISH AND BLUR COMPACT POWDER

When I first saw the YSL Matte Finish & Blur translucent powder, I wasn’t sure if I needed it or if it would be right for my skin type.

MARCH LOVE LIST

Here we are again at the end of another busy month. March went by so quickly, and I am realising that my exams are quickly approaching! My anxiousness is definitely increasing and I can’t wait for them to be over and done with. But anyway, here is my March Love List. 

SEPHORA: LIP LINERS TO GO- PINKS

DIORSKIN FOREVER REVIEW

All I have ever heard about Christian Dior products is how amazing they are, how long they last, and the quality that you are investing in. As everyone knows, they are definitely on the luxury side of beauty, but i think they are 100% worth it. I wanted to try a primer and a foundation as my first Dior products, firstly because I needed a new foundation, and secondly because I was dying to try Dior’s new collection. So I was really excited when I walked into Sephora, to see the Dior Forever Foundation and Concealer. I decided to pick up the lightest shade of the foundation, just to stay on the safe side, and thank goodness I did, as I find that it’s on the limit of being too dark for me. As that day I was wearing no makeup, I went home and tried out my new products straight away. The primer is light on the skin and is very hydrating. My makeup lasted perfectly till the end of the day, so I was very impressed. The foundation was creamy and easy to blend. It has amazing coverage, but it can also be built up to be super high coverage, without looking fake and caky at all. This might sound silly, but it absorbs concealer extremely well, and the Maybelline Anti-Age concealer is a perfect ‘match’ for it. I am very impressed and happy with these two products, and I highly recommend them. I was so pleased that i went to pick up some more Dior products to try them out, so make sure to look out for some blog posts soon.

 Have you ever tried any Dior products?

5 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU'RE HUNGOVER

Woke up with a terrible head ache, realising that maybe you had a bit too much to drink last night? Here are the five tips that I think are the most efficient in this situation.

1: Drink. 

By drinking, of course, I mean water, and you should drink as much of it as you can. Your body needs to get rid of all the waste of the alcohol, so to help it, you need to drink water. 

2: Eat.

 Food absorbs alcohol, so, even if you drank a few hours ago, eating, especcialy carbohydrates, will help the level of alcohol in your blood go down, helping to calm down your headache.

3: Sleep. 

Sleep as much a you can, but before drifting off remember to eat and drink, so when you wake up you can feel a little more refreshed. 

4: Have a bath or a shower. 

Do this after all the steps above, to try to relax and soothe your body. Of course a bath is more relaxing, but if you can’t have one, a shower is just fine. Just make sure to relax the best you can.

5: Take a pain relief tablet. 

Only do this one all the steps above have not helped, even though your drinks would have had to been extremely strong for you to still feel bad!

Anyway, I hope these were helpful, and let me know in the comments the most embracing think you have ever done while being drunk! Love, Sara xx
