Beauty Review: MUA Power Pout Acrylic

So recently MUA released a whole new summer collection. They came out with shimmering Bronzers, Gel and Matte eyeliners, Highlighter and Blush sticks, Luxe Whipped Velvet blush and lips and a whole lot more. From this range I picked up one of their Power Pout Acrylic in the shade Supreme which is a bright pink colour, perfect for the summer!

The colour is very pigmented so you don't need to apply several coats, one will be just perfect. It applies very smoothly and nicely. They are also not drying and do leave a stain on your lips during the day which is great thing because you don't need to touch up. Also while having any food or drinks the lip gloss won't wear away.

The size of the product is perfect to put away in your bag and the packaging is beautiful and basic. It's very structured and sleek. The smell of the lip gloss is actually quite nice. It will jazz any outfits in the summer!

Hope you do try out any of their new products and tell me what you think in the comments! :)

A Day in Belgium



On 1st of May I went to Belgium with my half of my year group, well the one's that study History for Gcse. We left London onto the coach at 4:30 in the morning, so basically we got no sleep since everyone was excited for the trip! We took a stop at the service station and I'm pretty sure everyone does this before they leave... go and try all those high end makeup products and spray lots of perfume, because that's certainly what we did to time pass and of course take lots of pictures!

The coach then got onto the Eurostar train and we finally arrived at Belgium and 10 in the morning. The coach journey was really tiring since we were sat for hours but I caught a lovely picture of the sunrise!!!
 

Yes, this was taken in the coach!

The first place we visited in Belgium was the Battlefields. Over there we saw lots of graves of different people from all over the world. There was also a huge wall engraved with soldier’s names which means their bodies could not be found! There are about 11,500 graves.

 

 

At 12:30 we ate our lunch and headed for the Passchendaele Memorial Museum. Inside we saw different types of guns that were used, how the beds were like for the soldiers to sleep on, trenches and lots more. At 3:00 we arrived to Sanctuary Wood Trench and Bayernwald Trench. We got to walk in the trenches with our groups and have a little tour. It was really enjoyable because it felt like a maze game and we actually got to feel how it was like in past during the war.

 

Walking around in the Trenches!

After visiting the Trenches we had an hour to go around and do some shopping in town. I visited lots of chocolate shops since Belgium are famous for their lovely chocolates. I bought Macaroons, white and chocolate milk Belgian chocolates, truffles and many more!

 

 



For Dinner we went to a stunning restaurant in town square. The inside looked very grand but unfortunately they didn't serve that great food we were hoping for. We had chips with Vegetable fillet and lemonade.

Doesn't look very fancy and famishing, But oh Well!

After dinner we had a fantastic opportunity to go and see the Last Post Ceremony at Menin Gate. It was a privilege to be there and see some of the older soldiers with tons of badges. Two girls from our school got chosen to put a poppy wreath at the ceremony as a sign of remembrance. The Menin gate bears the name of 54,869 British and Commonwealth soldiers lost between 1914 August to 1917 with no grave.

Finally after the ceremony we got back onto the coach and left for London. The journey back home wasn’t great either. I honestly hate riding on coaches; it makes me feel sick and makes my skin very dehydrated and humid. But overall it was a great experience and two of my best friends came along and we have great memories to look back at which we love doing!

Beauty Review: Provocalips by Rimmel London

So as I have said on my last post that I might do a beauty review, well today I have decided to do that. The products that I am going to review are called Provocalips by Rimmel London. My mum wanted to try out new lip products so she chose these at random. The main reason why I tried this product is because of the colour. The colour that my mum picked up is named Kiss Fatal. It is a dark purple colour and I'm a big fan of dark colours. My mum loved the product so much that she wanted to try a new colour so the next colour she picked up is a nude coral which is named 'Make your Move', which is a very cool name indeed. The two colours that my mum chose are two of my favourite lippies now!

This product has two steps to it. Steps 1 is applying the colour and then finishes with step two: lock and shine. This product is said to last for 16h and be transparent. The product does last for the whole day because I wore it to school for my performance to match with my outfit and it literally lasted for the whole day and I was absolutely pleased because I didn't have to touch up. But one tip is if you don't like a sticky finish make sure to remember to apply step 2 because that helps. You can buy this product from the Drugstore so it is very affordable. The pigmentation is great so that's a plus.

Residental at Hindleap Warren

Last week on Friday 20th me and my older sister went on a residential to Hindleap Warren for 3 days with our Youth Club. We had a wonderful time there so today I’m here to share my experience with you.

Firstly it was a two hour journey ride to reach to our destination. Once we arrived one of the staff members gave us a tour around the centre. The place was huge and had different divisions like the forest, rock climbing zone, canoe area etc.  They had their own lounge area which included a pool table with a TV but unfortunate we couldn’t watch anything because it was an old TV which only had cassettes to it. But we didn’t really bother since all the excitement took us over!

After settling into our rooms we went night orienteering with our group. We were given a map which leads outside to the forest and had to find white and red signs which had numbers and letters. It was really fun working as a team especially in the dark. The food at Hindleap warren was delightful. My favourite was the breakfast, sausages with buns, Yum! There was also other youth groups with us and the staff members were really lovely!

Some of the other activities we did were Pool canoe, Camp Fire, Leap of Faith, Zip wire, Team exercise, Obstacles and High Adventure. My favourite activity was Obstacles because we worked in groups and it was really funny when someone made a blunder and we had to start all over again. It just makes me laugh when I think back at it! I would defiantly go back there again if I had the chance!
