Favourite inspirational quotes

So to keep up the motivation from our New Years resolutions I thought I would share with you some quotes which help me keep motivated and will hopefully help keep you motivated through the tough month of January too!

'Remind yourself that it's okay not to be perfect'

'Life is too short to wait'

'If it makes you happy, do it. If it doesn't, don't.'

'Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive about what could go right'

'Every moment is a fresh beginning'

#ChristmasBloggerBoxShare

There's a first time for everything and this christmas was the first time I was involved in a box share. I was paired up with the lovely Mei Mei and had a budget of £10 to spend. I chose to buy her products that I thought she would like after reading a few posts and scrolling back through her instagram posts. It was so nice to chat to a blogger and get to know them, so I am really glad I got involved. If you would like to find out more about it, use the hash tag #ChristmasBloggerBoxShare

I opened my package up to find the cutest stocking! As well as the gifts were lots of little maltesers which I had to try not to eat before taking the pictures for this post.

In the stocking were 2 face masks which will definitely replenish my skin after all this wind we've had recently in the UK. There's just something about face masks that really relax me so I can't wait to have a pamper evening. Along with the face masks I also received some hand sanitizer. This for me is a handbag essential so will definitely go to good use. Mei Mei had also chosen some hand cream which will help me keep my hands soft during this cold weather. 

I also received some fluffy socks which are adorable. I literally live in fluffy socks so these are perfect. My room has the tendency to be freezing so these will definitley keep me cozy. 

When I first opened the stocking it smelt soo good so I knew there was something scented in there. At the bottom were these 2 yankee candles!! I received Christmas Treats and Merry Berry from Mei Mei which I love, I have recently been looking to buy some but had no clue which ones to choose so I am so excited to finally have some. I will definitely need to be stocking up on these soon.

I would just like to thank Becky and Ren for creating the BloggerBoxShare and I'm so glad I got involved, thanks again to Mei Mei

My Naked Palette

When I saw all the reviews and the huge hype I didn't really take it in but I'm so glad I eventually did. I can't express words for this product. I am absolutely in love! My sister was kind enough to buy this as my birthday present and I've used it everyday since. I chose this out of the three as this had a range of browny warm shades that I adore and they're laid out in pairs which I thought would be a bit easier to use as I've only recently delved into the world of eyeshadow.

The shades in this palette are great for everyday looks as well as evening looks. A perfect all rounder in my opinion. My favourite shade is half baked because I love gold, most of my jewellery is gold as silver is a colder colour and I want some warmth in my life as british weather never seems to bring it (although it has a bit over the past week).

The quality is amazing, they're very pigmented due to the pigment infusion system used. This holds the pigment tightly together and they therefore last all day without smudging or melting off like cheaper eyeshadows do. Although Urban Decay palettes are a lot of money I definitely think its worth it as eyeshadows always seem to last ages for me and you get 12 good quality shades with the three palettes as well as samples with each one.
