ANOTHER LITTLE TAG!!!

Hi guys! As you've probably already noticed this is not our march favourites post ( :/ sorry) but it is a BEAUTY BLOGGER TAG! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Promise that we will put up our march favourites asap. Hope you enjoy :))))))))))))))))) x

1.What's your favourite eye-shadow (colour and name)?
Han: I like champagne colours because they are so beautiful and shiny. Personally I like wearing strong lips and so this light colour will go with everything, looking natural without being too plain or too much.
Em: I don't have a specific favourite, but I like gold shimmery eyeshadow, or a matte cork kind of colour.
2. What are your favourite make-up brands, that you would recommend to others?
Han: My favourite makeup brand is E.L.F because it produces high quality make-up products for very low prices. I would recommend it to anyone.
Em: I agree!
3. What is your 'go-to' beauty product?
Han: um . . . probably my mascara (Loreal illegal lash)
Em: Either my maybelline colour tattoo in 'On and on Bronze' or my Barry M coral Lipstick.
4. What's your favourite colour to wear on the lips?
Han: Either coral or red :)
Em: Same
5. What colour blush do you prefer?
Han: a light pink
Em: Coral


RANDOM QUESTION:
If you were a Disney princess, who would you be and why?
Han: Bell. No question about that. She is just so gorgeous and seems so nice. I also like her brown hair and the kiss curls that frame her face . . . gorgeous. And her ball gown for the dance with 'the beast', the yellow one. Imagine wearing that dress for prom!
Em: I'm not really sure, I don't have a favourite!
Han: HOW DARE YOU!

Hope you enjoyed this post

This Month's Beauty Wishes

Hey :) we haven't done a beauty post for quite some time and so we thought we would do one now!! :) x These are our beauty wishes for the next month or so (before we either buy them or change our minds :S ).

1. Naked basics eye shadow pallet - It is just so BEAUTIFUL and you could wear it every day cuz its natural AAAAAAAHHHHHH WE WANT IT!!! x
2. Soap and glory sexy mother pucker gloss stick - Han would have Plum Jam, but en would like Nudist (Han likes a bright red or pink, but Em likes her nudes and corrals (though we would both go for a red or corral every now and again)).
3. Maybelline baby skin pore eraser - seriously needed on both parts cuz our pores are LIKE FACIAL CRATERS!
4. Revlon parfumerie scented nail polish - just think, BEAUTIFUL nail colour plus AMAZING smell = MUST HAVE! Neither of us are any good at maths, but even we know that that equation is a NO BRAINER! (OMG! We sound like that no brainer advert with Kevin Bacon, what was it for again??)

Okay, so I think that is enough beauty stuff to get us through the month :) look out for a post tomorrow :) comment below on your beauty wishes for this month!

LUV YOU GUYS LOADS!

Colour of the Rainbow Tag - conclusion come by mutual decision

Hey guys :) this is our 'colour of the rainbow' tag x HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

red: Lately we have been loving Han's new red handbag that she got for Christmas! It is from 'Vera Pelle' it is a leather 'messanger' cross the shoulder bag that is so beautiful!!

orange: Han's cat because he is BRIGHT ORANGE and so GORGEOUS!

yellow: A bright yellow highlighter because at the moment with tests and stuff at school we have become OBSESSED with highlighting!

green: BarryM 'TMLP' (touch of magic lip paint) because we think that it is so cool how it goes from a green stick and makes a pink lipstick (depending on the alkalinity of your teeth).

blue: The Fault in our Stars book, because it is so BEAUTIFUL that it will make you laugh and cry all at the same time!

indigo: The blueberry candle from Lily Flame! Smells AMAZING and the packaging is so sophisticated and ADORABLE!

purple: At the moment we have a craze over berry lipsticks! I don't really know if berry lipstick counts as purple but we absolutely adore them and so they just needed to be in this video because they are so wintery and cute.

pink: Rose fairy lights because we think they just look so nice and wintery.

multicolor:  CUPCAKES!!!!!! We have this mad obsession with this coffee shop around the corner from our school that make the best cupcakes EVER with the cutest icing patterns! We also LOVE baking our own cupcakes <3

A bit random we know :) sorry about that <3 xxxxxx

Luv ya <3 Byeeeeeee x

Get To Know Us: The Beauty Blogger Tag

Is your hair naturally curly or straight?

Han: My hair is naturally in-between. After I wash it it's curly but after about a day it goes puffy and straight until I wash it again the next day.
Em: I'd say my hair is naturally in between too! Because I have short layered hair it always looks full of texture and volume (on a good day)  which I like :) 

Do you dye your hair yourself or go to a salon?

Han: To be honest I don't dye my hair. I definitely would have it does in a salon (if I were to have it done) because I wouldn't trust myself to do on my own.
Em: same as Han :)

Do you wear the same hair style everyday or do you change it?

Han: In school I have to wear my hair up so I usually wear my hair in a ponytail and sometimes a bun done in about 5 seconds in the car. At the weekend I usually wear my hair down or in a bun.
Em: Yes because I can't really do much with my hair in terms of styles so I just like to wear it naturally

Do you do your own Mani/pedi or do you go to the salon?

Han: I always do my own nails because (a) I'm skint and (b) I love painting my nails because I enjoy trying different colours. For Christmas from Emily, however, I did have a salon voucher to go for a mani/pedi with her so I'm really looking forward for that.
Em: I usually do my own but I'm going to get mine done professionally soon! 

Do you polish your toes in the winter or just in the summer?

Han: I usually only polish my toes in the summer because you won't be showing off you toe nails, but this Christmas I did paint them because I just fancied it.
Em: Usually only in the summer.

How long does it take for you to put on make-up?
Han: On a normal day only about five minutes because I only usually do a bit of concealer, foundation, eyeshadow and maybe a nude lipstick/gloss/vaseline . . . actually that takes more than 5 mins . . .

Em: Usually about 5 - 10 minutes 

What do you do first, Face or Eyes?
Han: Face, I don't know anyone that does their eyes first. I usually put foundation over my eyelids because find it easier to apply eyeshadow with nice smooth face, is that weird? I would probably smudge my eye make-up with foundation otherwise.

Em: I usually do my face first, incase I smudge my mascara or something! 

Do you 'collect' make-up or just buy it when you need it?
Han: A bit of both. I usually buy lipstick, blush and eyeshadow whenever I want, but I only get one (or maybe two) mascaras and a foundation (actually I have three open at the moment). Okay . . . I've just figured I just buy it ALL THE TIME!

Em: Same as Han to be honest :)

How often do you wear false eyelashes?
Han: Never I'd be worried that I would poke myself in the eye tbh.

Em: Same here - even though I wear mascara I'm lucky because I have really naturally long and dark eyelashes unlike Han!  If I did wear false eyelashes they would just look a bit silly tbh!

Do you wear make-up everyday?
Han: I wear a bit of mascara everyday, but not full foundation, blush, eyeshadow etc!

Em: I usually wear foundation, mascara and concealer everyday, and when I'm going out I'll wear eyeshadow and blusher. However sometimes if I'm having a good skin day or am in a rush I'll just wear mascara.

Do you wear make-up when you are home alone or with family?
Han: It depends if I can be bothered to put it on or if I am particularly spotty of not.

Em: Same here, probably not.

Will you leave the house without make-up?
Han: Sure, I do it a lot if I have a good skin day.

Em: It depends on where I'm going, but yes I would.

How many High-End products do you have?
Han: Not that many, I usually buy drugstore, but my mum has given me an Elisabeth Aarden Lip SPF and Clinique pressed powder (because for some reason most drugstore powders dry out my face) , but that's about it.

Em: Same as Han really, although I own a Calvin Klein eyeshadow pallette and brow pencil 

Do you plan your OOFT (outfit of the day) every night or decide when you are getting dressed?
Han: Unless I'm going somewhere REALLY special I decide as I'm getting dressed thinking 'OMG! I WISH I'D THOUGHT OF THIS LAST NIGHT BECAUSE ALL OF MY NICE CLOTHES ARE IN THE WASH!'

Em: Same as Han, not unless I'm going somewhere special or need to be organised for the next day.

How often do you change your handbag?
Han: I've only have three handbags EVER! So . . not very often!

Em: I have quite a few handbags, so I'll just switch depending on which one I can find and if I fancy it. I usually just stick to my little cream one though because it goes with pretty much everything. 

What time do you wake up and go to sleep?
Han: On a school day I usually wake up at around 6:40 am and I go to sleep at about 10:00 pm. But, on a weekend I wake up from anywhere between 7:00 am and 9:30 am. Then I go to sleep at around 10:30 pm.

Em: On a school day I got to sleep at about 10.30 an wake up at 7 am, but I'll wale up earlier if I want to wash my hair or do any work. On a weekend, I tend to go to sleep at about 11 ish and wake up whenever.

How often or when do you do your workout?
Han: Well, on a Monday I do rowing from 2:30-5:00, on Tuesday Em and I do badminton for 45 mins and pointe (ballet) for 30 mins. Wednesday we do ballet for an hour and Thursday go for a 'cross country' run. Friday we both do circuit training (for rowing fitness). On a weekend I just do a bit of abs and core exercises to strengthen my core for ballet.

Em: I do exactly the same except on a Monday I do netball from 2:30-4:00 instead of rowing.

Are you left handed or right handed?

Han: Right.
Em: Right too.

How tall are you?

Han: 5"4' I think.
Em: About 5"5' or 5"6' 

Do you speak any foreign languages?

Han: I do Spanish at school.
Em: Same.

How many pets do you have?

Han: One, I have a cat!!
Em: I don't have any :(

How often are you on blogger?

Han: ALL OF THE TIME!!! Literally!
Em: Same, but I'm not quite as obsessive as Han.

Do you read comments on blogs?
Han: I usually read comments on other blogs. I always look out for comments on our blog though, even though there aren't many.
Em: same


Do you keep a list of products to try as you see other products?
Han: I do actually. I right them all down in my 'blog book'.
Em: I keep a mental list and I'll probably research it when I get home.


How did you come up with your blog name?
Han: I guess it's kind of obvious. We just put our names together and shipped them 
Em: Haha :) agreed


What kind of camera do you use for your photos?
Han: A little cannon (don't know what type sorry :S) or my phone camera, but I'm saving up for a DSLR!
Em: Usually either my phone or tablet camera, but my main camera is my Panasonic Lumix.



How often do you clean your house?
Han: I live with my parents so I'm not so good at cleaning, but I do enjoy a bit of hoovering every now and again. Is it a bit odd that I enjoy hoovering? I just find it relaxing.
Em: Same here - when I need to.


What is your favourite colour?
Han: Emerald Green
Em: Purple or Red


Do you swear?
Han: Never
Em: All the time, I'm really bad. But I suppose we balance each other out.



What are you doing with the rest of your day?
Han: I'm going food shopping with my bro and them I am going to write another blogpost with Em. Maybe some hwk as well :S I HATE HWK!
Em: Same here - homework :( I have been to an old people's home this morning for my volunteering section of my Duke Of Edinburgh award.


That was fun! Hope you enjoyed it guys! LUV YA!!!

Pamper Evening Essentials

We got this AMAZING idea from a blog called 'Kirsty's Corner'. We are subscribed and REALLY LOVE IT! *Han* I actually think that is my favourite blog.

Essential #1
A SMELLY CANDLE (Smelly as in good not bad :D)
*Em* I would recommend Stoneglow Cinnamon and Orange. Granted it's a bit pricey, but the smell is SO WORTH IT! And look at that packaging, simply gorgeous.

*Han* I have to be honest, I don't really have candles, but this one smells so good :) I actually think I might go out and buy one!!! I think I would probably get a Stoneglow White Jasmine scented candle instead though because this is quite a Christmassy scent and I'm being hopeful for Spring (Even though it's not gonna come for about three months yet)!


Essential #2
A BATH BOMB

*Em* My fave bath bomb has to
 be the seaweed one from lush. You know, the blue one? BIG BLUE! That's the one. It's only £3.25 so it's not too expensive. If you look at the website you can see all of the ingredients in it and their ALL NATURAL! BONUS!

*Han* Sounds nice, but I can promise that mine is better. It is only £2.29 ( so way cheaper than yours HA!) and it looks so much prettier. It smells like rose petals though (not cherry) and it has chocolate pieces and little heart shape confetti that float around the bath. As if that wasn't amazing enough there are cute little red seeds that bob around in the water that smell DIVINE! I think that the fact it is PINK should give it a bonus point and it turns the bath water a light baby pinkie kinda shade. Some bath bombs (like Em's *coughs meaningfully*) make your skin feel beautiful and soft, but leave the bottom of the bath really silky as well so you slip around when trying to get out, but this doesn't. It allows you to have perfectly pampered skin without the extra ice rink effect. OMG! Look how much I've written! That was quite long winded so sorry about that, but MY FAVOURITE BATH BOMB IS THE BEST EVER! Amen to that :)


Essential #3
BODY WASH
*Han* I have decided to come first this time because it's unfair that Em has been first both times before :) just kidding it's just how things turned out. Anyway back to the blog, My favourite body wash is Soap and Glory Clean on Me. It smells so sweet and florally feminine. The 500ml container is £6.00, but you can also get a travel size of 75ml for £2.50 (and, of course, I have both). It's quite a flirty, strong fragrance and so I don't think it's for everyone, but it is SO ME!

*Em* I have two, no, three  favourite body washes. One is Snow Fairy, again from Lush. This is actually limited Edition, so I don't know how long you will be able to buy it for, but I would try and get your hands on it ASAP because you are in for a treat. It is a really fruity fragrance that you can use on your hair and body. It is insanely sweet and SUPER PINK so as Han said it is perfect for us, but maybe not for everyone. The 110g bottle costs £7.25 which for lush is quite good. My second 'joint fave' is Ginger Sparkle from the Body Shop, sadly I don't know the original price, but I got it for £3.00 in the sale and I just couldn't leave it there. This is, again a festive limited edition (sorry it seems to be a habit of mine to get cheap Xmas sale body washes) and smells so gorgeous. When it says ginger it REALLY means ginger. The smell is so strong you only have to use a tiny bit otherwise it becomes overpowering, but it is a real 'wake-me-up' and so I LOVE IT! Just picture a warm fire, with baking gingerbread in the oven, stockings everywhere and a massive Christmas tree . . . *drifts off into dreamland* *Han snaps her fingers* I'm back in the room. Sorry, must have dozed off for a minute. The final shower gel favourite is *drum roll* BODY SHOP COCONUT SHOWER CREAM! This is a classic fave, but still scrummy. I enjoy how it reminds me of summer and gives me such soft skin. So, basically I <3 IT! To be perfectly honest I don't actually like coconut to eat, it makes me feel really sick, but for some reason I like the shower gel. Why would you want to eat coconut? It's just weird! Comment about whether you like coconut. Han does, but urgh :S I can't bear to think about it! I've just started a weird convo. What are your thoughts on coconut? Anyway, back to shower gel, it cost £4.00 for 250ml so it was quite a bargain really.

Essential #4
FACE MASK

This photo doesn't make it look very appetising, but I promise it is. This is Lush's cupcake face mask (I seem to be quite obsessed with Lush at the moment). It smells amazing (chocolatey of course) and it glides easily onto your face without too many lumps. I find that you can use this pot of face mask at least five times because I don't feel you need too much, but I know Han can't use it more that once because she splats it all on her face. This face mask is a very reasonable price in my opinion because it is made of all natural ingredients and cleanses your face really well. This costs £5.95 and because I use it so sparingly it is TOTALLY WORTH IT!

*Han* Relating to Em's earlier comment about how much face mask I use I would just like to say that she is the one that uses too little. I would also like to add that if I tried I could probably make it last a bit longer, but I choose not too because I'm greedy and enjoy having chocolate on my face! SO DEAL WITH IT! Moving on . . . Personally I prefer to make my own face mask using Avocado, Banana, Strawberries and honey. You could even chop up some cucumber to put on your eyes. All you need to do is mash it all together in a bowl and shove it all on your face without annoying best friends telling you to save it because otherwise it is a waste of money. This is also a healthier option because it is made of FRESH ingredients straight from the fruit bowl. Also if you have the fruit in your house already this face mask will be COMPLETELY FREE! So TAKE THAT EMILY!!!!

Essential #4
FOOD

A Pamper Evening is not complete without the food. We would recommend a bowl of fruit, such as mango, so that you can tell yourself that you are being healthy. Then grab a packet of Oreos and put them on a plate along with a LARGE bar of chocolate (flavour of your choosing) lastly pour a MASSIVE packet of popcorn into a pan cook till the 'pop' put nutella, and/or toffee on top and you are good to go :)



HAVE FUN! We're off to have a good pamper now, so see you tomorrow babes,

Failed Shopping Haul

To be honest we didn't really buy very much when we went shopping today :S

What we bought:

Han:
I bought three make-up products from E.L.F
- a moisturising lipstick in the shade corral cutie
- eyeliner pen in midnight
- bronze and blush contour pallet in #D33

Em:
-I got a book from Waterstones called 'Geekhood - close encounters of the girl kind' by Andy Robb. It looks really good and I'm looking forward to reading it!

Sorry its a bit disappointing guys, but tbh we spent most of our time in Starbucks. We both had SALTED CARAMEL HOT CHOCOLATES!!! Yum :) We also shared a Raspberry and White Chocolate cookie! The colour was AMAZING - bright PINK! But not artificial looking, just raspberry colour.

Love you loads,
Hanily x

Winter Makeup Favourites - Han

Han's WINTER MAKEUP FAVOURITES!!!!!!

Face:

Foundation: Flawless matte Finish from BarryM. Personally I use colour 1, Ivory (the lightest colour because I am very pale in winter and need a different colour to the summer). A good foundation really boosts my confidence in the winter time because my skin doesn't really like the weather and tends to go dry. This is my absolute favourite foundation because it is only £5.99 from any good drugstore and it glides on really easily without caking. It also lasts a long time because you don't need to use too much, one pump is more than enough.

Under Eye Concealer: Garnier Anti-Dark Circles. I have the lightest colour so that it can highlight my eyes and make them look brighter while still giving full concealer coverage.











Concealer: This is Collection 2000's lasting perfection concealer it is such a good concealer for me because I tend to have a lot of spots and it has a very high coverage without blocking my pores and causing an even larger breakout of spots than I already have.


Contour:

Blusher: Personally I love blush in coral or light pink shades. This Bourjois Paris Blush in 15 Rose Eclat is perfect for winter because it gives you a healthy glow that makes you look as if you have been outside in the cold. It complements pale skin perfectly and lightens up your face.

Bronzer: Again this is Boujois which is a company that I really like for face powders. This is Bourjouis Delice de Poudre Bronzeing Powder and it is a gorgeous light bronzer that you can layer depending on the coverage you want. It was a £6.99 well spent.


Lips:

Lipstick: For winter I love dark cherry colours and so Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipstick in Dark Cherry  was perfect for me. I got it as a Christmas present an it is beautifully soft and velvety on the lips. I find that it moisturises your lips as well as being beautifully pigmented. It costed £7.95.

Personally I don't wear lipglosses or lipliner and so I don't have a personal favourite of them, but if you like those kind of things comment below because I would really like to try out a few.


Eye:














Eyeliner: Rimmel Soft Khol Kajal Eye Pencil in Jet Black only cost me £2.99 and gives really good definition to your eyes. I only bought this last weekend and so I can't give a proper review yet, but so far so good.


Eyeshadow: Ted Baker eyeshadow pallet in 'Can't take my eyes off you'. I don't know if you can still buy it because I can't find it on the internet and I'm really sorry, but I don't know the price either as Emily bought it for me for Christmas last year and I think it's probably a bit rude to ask how expensive it was. This product has lasted me for over a year even though I use it every day. It


Mascara: Maybelline Waterproof, Illegal Length Mascara is such an amazing product that doesn't dry up. Having almost non existent eyelashes myself it really helps to give length and definition to your eyes. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT and have bought it three times. However, I find it questionable as to whether this is a waterproof mascara because it seems to run and smudge just the same as a non waterproof mascara.


These are Han's make-up favourites for Winter. Emily's will be soon :)

Hanily x HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT xx
