Eyebrows

I have a love hate relationship with my eyebrows. I am currently regrowing them as I have over plucked them compared to how I usually have them which is pretty thick, right now they aren't thin but they are definitely not how I would like to them to be. So this means I get to look like a monster for a month or so :(

My eyebrows are dark and highly arched naturally, but they are sparse in a few areas around the top edges. I fill my eyebrows using Ruby and Millie I- Define brush £6.50, which is great its not too wide and chunky so it allows me to place product exactly where I want it with a nice clean finish. I fill my eyebrows in with Smashbox Brow Tech in 'Brunette' £18.00, personally I find this powder too powdery if that makes sense and too ashy for me.I feel that it shows on my eyebrows too obviously in the light, eventhough I use a light handI hate overdone brows. However the wax holds the powder well and does keep your eyebrows hairs in place for hours.
After gaining the courage to regrow my eyebrows I am hoping that I wont need to fill in my

eyebrows after as

My eyebrow once it is filled

Eyebrow envy- I love all of these ladies eyebrows, I guess this is the sort of shape and thickness I am aiming for.

Dandruff

Nivea Body lotion around £3

Just in time for the season... i thought as there are always certain home potions people are asked to throw together to get rid of this problem, even though i don’t suffer from the problem, I sometimes find myself having a flaky scalp when I’m stressed out. It not only adds to any extra stress but it makes you feel down n just plain ugly L yes i used the u*word. But actually there is a little method I have come up with, if you use nivea body lotion for dry skin on the scalp it should really help?! I left it in overnight and it just worked for me.. so i thought i share the method.

Apart from everything else, it is a great product all around, great for the skin!

Gorgeous colour it is the perfect nude for my skin tone(olive/tan), however I think this would suit all skin tones. Its not too brown or muddy therefore it doesn't dull your skin, it has mauve/dusky undertones to it. This colour goes with everything! Its perfectly on trend and can also be worn casually as it is such a natural colour. The consistency of this nail polish is kind of thick, which can make it annoying to apply , its so much easier to apply on short nails. I wear two coats for a even finish however you could get away with one coat.

I am a huge fan of pastel coloured nail polishes.I think it is a great way of adding a pop of colour into your outfits. This as you can see is a cool shade of mint however it is not chalky or too blue or green, its just right. I would usually wear pastel colours in summer, however this colour is really versatile and works in winter great if worn with something dark without looking too summery. I think this colour looks best on short/medium length nails, look kind of tacky on long nails.You only need one coat of this and your done!
