My monthly favourites

It's that time of month again were I blabber on about the things I've really enjoyed this month. And, I forget to post these every single month so if I remember to publish this, someone needs to buy me some ice creme. 
Okay, this month has been lovely. The weather has been nice, I've gained a tan - which, might I add, never happens so that is a glorious achievement in itself. 

okay, so the things I've loved this month. 

Beauty 

I have always used a plain old brown powder on my eyebrows, but this month, I invested in the Soap and Glory Archery Brow Tint and Pencil and I have to say, it's brilliant. It makes my brows look so beautiful, and you can get your brows to look really natural by just using the pen end and doing small brush strokes, but the pencil end adds such definition that makes your brows just stand out. 

I have absolutely loved wearing a nude colour on my lips  and the lipstick I have been loving is the Rimmel Kate Moss in the shade Number 3. It is a gorgeous brown/pink nude shade that looks so flattering and natural when on. Definitely a shade I will repurchase when it runs out. Which is a big deal for me because I usually only wear red/berry toned lipsticks. 

Okay, so the last beauty item I have adored this month is Benefit's Rollar Lash which, if I'm honest, is a little more pricey than what I would normally spend on a mascara, but, I have absolutely loved it and it definitely is worth every single penny. 

TV/Film 

The tv show that I have loved the most this month is Pretty Little Liars. I have loved this show for 5 years now, and not a single episode has ever disappointed me. I am in love.

A movie I have loved this month is a movie called Wish I was Here, it is a Zach Braff movie and it's just a beautiful film to watch. It's funny and emotional and the storyline is just really nice to watch. 

Music 

My music favourites will always be The Ghost Inside, they are without a doubt my favourite band, everything I have heard by them is brilliant and they never disappoint me. 

But, as a new one, I have loved Happy Song by Bring Me the Horizon. I didn't expect to because most of the people I know who listened to it before me said it was a really bad song, but as you will know from my review on it, I adored it. 

Another band I have loved listening to this month is Architects. I never get butterflies from listening to a band but their album Lost Forever//Lost Together is truly beautiful and I have really enjoyed listening to it this month. 

Youtubers

When I think about what youtubers I have enjoyed this month, there are only a few that come to mind. and those are:

• EssieButton - I only discovered Estée last month but I have really enjoyed watching her new and old videos this month, her voice is so calming to listen to and the quality of her videos is amazing. 
• VelvetGh0st - I have loved Gabby for over a year now and her videos never fail to make me smile, although, I think the way she has changed her life around and handled everything she has gone through over the last couple of months really is something to be admired. 
• Lucy&Lydia - These two are the happiest people I watch on the internet, and although their content is pretty much the same as most female youtubers, their happiness and chemistry just makes their videos something I have to watch because I just know I will feel insanely happy afterwards. 
• and, PointlessBlogVlogs. - Not the greatest youtuber atm, the content on his main channel has lacked so much, but, his vlog channel is something I watch every night. I love how happy and enthusiastic he is. I have literally watched every single video he has released this month on this channel, loved them all. 

okay, that is is from me. 

thanks for reading, xoxo.

Questions and answers...

Okay, so this is basically an updated "about me" because I haven't done one since I started this blog two years ago. I basically looked through a bunch of quesiton and answer posts off of other peoples blogs and threw together a nice long list of questions.

Me.

1. Do you have any siblings?
   I do yeah, I have two brothers and two sisters. 
2. How old are you? 
   I am 19 :)
3. What's your height? 
   I think I'm 5"6
4. Do you workout?
    Kinda, I try to do as many sit-ups and crunches as I can everyday, and I also try and walk instead of using trains/buses as much as I can. 
5. Do you have any pets?  
   I don't no, although I did had a bunny called Buttons when I was younger and I have always lived with dogs as my parents always have them. I don't live at home anymore though and I can't have pets in my flat.
6. What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?  
   drawing, singing, baking and binge watch netflix. 
7. What do you feel is your greatest achievment? 
   I got a distinction in my grade 5 singing exam, and an A* in my music performance assessment. Which is pretty good for me because I'm not very lucky when it comes to getting good grades.
8. What do you value most in life? 
   My family 
9. What do you do? 
   I'm at uni, but I'm also looking for a part-time job.
10. What is your dream job? 
    I'm not completely sure. I'd love to sing, that's my biggest dream, but, my main dream job is any career that I can help people in. I can't imagine myself sitting behind a desk because of my knee problem so idfk. Maybe I'll try out youtube, that would be perfect for me. 
11. What did you take for your GCSE'S/in college? 
    For my GCSE's, I took catering, media studies and music. and in college I did applied science - boring af. 
12. Do you make good grades? 
    no. I am one of them highly unfortunate people who studies their ass off and still gets awful grades. 
13. Do you want to get married later on in life? 
    Not particularly. I don't like to feel trapped and that's basically what a marriage is, and tbh, I'd rather not be trapped with one person for the rest of my life, I'd end up spending every day riddled with anxiety. 
14. Do you have any phobias? 
    fucking..omg, yes. Heights are just, ew. And spiders, moths and daddy long legs, I'd rather not. 
15. Have you ever been abroad? 
    nope *sigh*

Beauty/Shopping. 

1. Heels or flats? 
   I adore wearing heels but fuck, they hurt far too much so imma go with flats.

   As I'm a student, I'm therefore a poor fucker and can only afford to buy clothes from primark, new look and H&M. 
3. Favourite drugstore makeup brand? 
   Rimmel London and Maybelline cosmetics. 
4. Favourite nail polish brand? 
   Barry M. 
5. What was your first makeup item? I think it was a Barry M lipgloss or something. 
6. At what age did you start wearing makeup? 
   I was either 12 or 13, started off basic with a pretty crappy eyeliner and mascara. 
7. Do you wear falsies? If so which brand? 
   nope. 
8. How do you take care of your hair? 
   I make sure I wash it every 4 days because then it's still getting it's natural oils that it needs, but it's always getting kept clean - don't want to wash it too often. I also use two hair serums, a dove one (that isn't available in the UK, I got mine in a poundshop because the langauge on the bottle is in a different language) and a john freida one. I also make sure to use a deep conditioning hair mask every week and, I mainly use one called Roots from Lush. I'm not the best at caring for my hair though as I do dye my hair quite a lot. 
9. Whats the colour of your natural hair? 
   I think my natural colour is a mousy brown. 
10. What are your views on plastic surgery? 
    if it's what makes you happy then go for it, just don't go too far...one lip filler is fine, it looks nice, but 5 looks tacky - know the limit. But ye, I'm considering it myself. 
11. Do you bite your nails? 
    ew no.
