My 16th Birthday Present Wishlist - so far!

Hello to you!

So in November this year, I will be turning 16 and around September/October when my parents start buying presents, I always have no idea what I want! This year, I decided to make a list earlier then throughout the year I can edit it and change it to new things that I might like. Originally this list was a LOT longer so I have narrowed it down, and I will probably be adding and changing products a lot over the next few months...Anyway, here is the list so far!

Main Present: New Laptop (the one I am using at the moment it so old, I feel like it could break any second! I need a new one ASAP!)
Orange/Purple Tangle Teezer - Zoella introduced me to these, and my hair gets very knotty so I have been dying to get one. I will probably buy one for myself next month, but i'll keep this one on the list! You can never have too many!
Yankee Candle - I looooove candles, and Yankee Candles are the best! I definitely want to grow my collection of these.
Radio Alarm Clock - I hate my current alarm clock so much! I would love to be woken up buy BBC Radio 1 instead :)
Body Shop Coconut Body Butter - Had this quite a while ago, loved it.
Soap & Glory Shower Gel £6.50 - you guys already know about my soap and glory addictions!
Lush -Bath Bomb/Lip Scrub - I adore the lush bath bombs, and I tried the lip scrub last year! I wanna stock up on some lush products.
Matches for candles - simple, but I need some ;)
iTunes gift card - i'm always spending money on iTunes!
Ninja Turtle Backpack - Jenna Marbles fans will understand. Love it.
Bright & Black Tights - For summer I have bought more shorts and skirts, so I need some more tights for when it gets colder!
Exercise Ball - I'm not quite sure why, I just really want one of these.

Let me know in the comments if you have any of these things already, or if you have a birthday wishlist! Thanks for reading!

Daily Makeup I use

Hello to you!

Maybe this is just me, but it feels like it's been ages since my last post. I haven't been keeping up with my blog as much as I would've liked recently, just because I haven't felt like writing and I don't want to be doing blog posts just for the sake of it! I have a LOT of exams coming up, but I will try my best to do 2 posts a week. Today I am going to tell you about the makeup products I use every day! This won't be entirely accurate as I can go from no makeup to a full face of makeup depending on my mood, but I am going to tell you what I would wear on an average day. Hope you like! All of these products are from boots/superdrug because I think high end products are so similar, but triple the price! I am planning to buy a few things from more expensive brands later on this year as they are on my wishlist, but I think drugstore/high street products work just as well. Back to the point, you can find ALL the products i've mentioned in drugstore/high street shops!

Eyes:

Collection 2000 Multiplier Mascara (Bargain price, and works really well!)
Collection 2000 24 Extreme Felt Tip Eyeliner (Works really well, lasts all day and barely smudged at all!)
MUA 'Heaven and Earth' Eyeshadow Palette (amazing price, works really well!)
Barry M Kohl White Eyeliner (on my waterline, makes me look much more awake and less zombie-like on school days)

Lips:

Miss Sporty Dr Balm Lip Balm
Natural Collection Lipgloss in 'Cherry Drop' (this is only like £2 or something ridiculously cheap, tastes nice!)

Face:

Miss Sporty 'Morning Baby' BB Cream
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation (I reviewed this not too long ago, I still love it!)
Collection 2000 Pressed Powder (again, it's like £2...I wouldn't spend loads on a powder because I only put on a tiny amount so it would be a waste of money!)
Collection 2000 Blusher (once again, don't use loads of it so I would spend a lot of money on it)

So there ya go...A bit of an idea of what I slap on my face! I don't wear makeup every day because I am genuinely a very lazy person. I wear makeup in school every day, but it varies on the amount I wear because I get up very late for school and don't always have time to do everything! Out of school I don't wear as much makeup, but I do put on quite a bit for making my youtube videos on sundays. Hope you enjoyed this post, let me know if you want any reviews or want to find out more about any of the products mentioned!

Worst Product I have EVER tried!

Hello to you!

Normally I try to stick with posts about products I like or things like that, but today I must admit...I think I have found the worst product I have EVER used.

The name of this product is Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Body Lotion.
I will not lie, I am really really disappointed in this. I bought it with quite high expectations as I have heard some good reviews on it...bad decision! I used it about half an hour ago, and it hasn't been as good as any other body lotion i've used. It was difficult to get out of the bottle and was a nasty texture, it's very hard to explain. It was a bit like slime, but less sticky/gooey and more...squishy? It smells disgusting*. I applied it to my legs and actually washed my hands twice because I couldn't stand the smell! I almost gagged, it is vile. Sorry to put this bluntly, but 'fragrance free'? What a load of crap. It smells like chemically modified sour coconut milk...although I don't know what sour coconut milk smells like, i'm pretty sure this body lotion smells worse. I will NOT be using this again, and I am going to give it to someone else if they can stand it! Don't worry, I will warn them how awful it is first. Eugh, I don't think I will be trying out any more Palmer's products anytime soon. I think this is the worst product I have ever tried, I might throw it in the bin right now. If I was you, I would definitely steer clear of this products! I will probably never use this again. I am really disappointed in this because I bought it after hearing about how great it was and I really wanted to test it out, and it turned out to be absolutely terrible!

*Yes I did need to bold, underline and italicize that for emphasis. DISGUSTING.


What's the worst product you've ever bought? Have you tried this body lotion before, and do you agree with me or do you like it? Let me know in the comments!
