revision tips!!!!!

So it's that time of the year when GCSE's come around, end of year exams and around this time everyone are revising they socks off. Here are some tips to help you revise, I hope you guys find them useful!                            
 1. Create a revision timetable. It will help you to stay on task and gives you a set time for doing things.
Keep you planner, Exam timetable and pencil case on your desk it will encourage you to revise more. 

I keep all my school books in this section of my desk. This is a great way to organise it.

 I make revision cards which are so easy to get and use! I am also making a lot of mind maps because they are a lot easier to remember.
This is my desk space. My desk, chair and lamp are from IKEA. Having a space to work is really important  because it means you can concentrate. If you don't have one don't worry though. 

TIP: KEEP OFF ANY TECH BECAUSE IT WILL DISTRACT YOU 

Hoped you liked this post!

My hair care routine!!!

I wash my hair twice a week because it doesn't get that greasy and this is what i do:



Firstly I rinse my hair under water then apply the first shampoo. I use the aussie mega shampoo for everyday cleaning and it smells amazing, it also gives your hair great texture. I rinse it then apply a second shampoo then rinse again.
I then towel dry my hair and use then system professional shine define leave - in conditioner. I put it on the ends of my hair and then on the roots and comb it through. 

I blow dry my hair upside down with the mark hill salon professional power dryer to get more volume and then quickly go over it with cold air.
This is what I use every morning to brush my hair.

I hoped you liked this blog post!

Would you rather? - Beauty edition

1) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or lose all of your palettes and eye shadows?
I would loose all my palettes and eye shadows because my mascara (scandel eyes extreme - Rimmel) and my favorite lip gloss (cremesheen glass - boy bait - MAC) are my makeup essentials and i don't think my make up is finshed without mascara anyway!!!
2.) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
I would have pink because it goes with most things. Simple.
3.) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
I would buy some really nice clothes because right now i think there are some really nice clothes out there!
4.) Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
Eyeliner as lipstick. Lipstick as eyeliner would look horrific!
5.) Would you rather only shop at Barry M or Rimmel?
 Rimmel because my favorite drugstore products in my make up bag are from Rimmel.
6.) Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?
One eyshadow because i love neutral eyes and because of dance i would not wear bright red lips all the time!
7.) Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?
Bright because i love them!
8.) Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?
I would give up my favorite eye products because (as you can see from my last blog post) i love my all my lip products in my make-up bag.
 9.) Would your rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
I would rather rather never paint my nails because i can't live without my favorite lip glosses and I can't paint my nails to save my life!
10.) Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?
I would rather live without nail polish because i am very self conscious about the way I look and try to cover up my faults with make up. (I know that is bad).

Spring day in the life!

Today I went dancing for two hours which was great fun, and after was in Spring mood so went on a little walk round my village with my family and took some photos.

My outfit of the day


Sorry about my ballet barre but this is my outfit of the day. I did my hair in a messy bun (even though you cant see it!) with a blue floral headband from new look. My jumper is from Jhonnie B, my jeggins are Hollister and my frilly socks are from Topshop. I think my scarf is from a newlife sale at church but i am unsure (sorry!). I wore my Chelsea boots from Topshop and my parka from Hollister as well.  


Lime Tree

So there is a new cafe in my area called the Lime Tree and as soon as I walked in i was like " This is amazing!". Here are a few pics to explain why:





I highly recommend it if you live near me.


Walk

Then we just waked around the area and i saw perfect blog opportunity pictures so here they are:





I hoped you liked this spring day in the life blog!

Enjoy life!
