Liebster Award!
Goood morning lovely people!
Apologies, it's been a while. I've been drowning in revision, but am taking a day off today to get my blog in order.
Well boy am I glad I logged in! The lovely Lauren over at Lauren Zetta has nominated me for the Liebster award... Swoon! She's totally lovely and you should all head over to her blog.... NOW.
Before this morning I'm going to be honest and say that I'd not heard of the Liebster award before but I do believe the word is German for kindest or sweetest which is lovely.
There are also some rules and here they are...
- List 11 facts about yourself
- Answer the 11 questions given to you
- Ask 11 new questions to the bloggers you chose to nominate
- Choose 9 bloggers with 200 or less followers to nominate
- go to each bloggers page and let them know you have nominated them for the award
- Thank the person that gave you the award and add a link on your post back to their blog
My 11 Facts
1. I have been with my other half for over 5 years and we are actually high school sweethearts.
2. I'm a hoarder - I have at least two if not more of most things.
3. I'm obsessed with Yankee Candles - they're divine.
4. When it comes to football, I will always support Manchester United.
5. Though I'm a finalist at University, I actually haven't a clue what I want to do for a job.
6. Despite the hype I don't own a single Essie Polish which is surprising as I normally give into hype pretty quickly.
7. I've never had a haircut I've been happy with - EVER. So I dislike having my hair cut.
8. My worst habit is picking/peeling my nail polish off.
9. I'd be lost without my Filofax - I keep all my event tickets and important dates in there.
10. I love fruit tea's - Asda's Strawberry and Forest Fruits is my top choice.
11. I started my blog because I had so many rubbish products so I thought it would provide the opportunity to offer others the good and bad so they can choose whether to purchase or not.
Answering Lauren's Questions..
What is your favourite thing about blogging? I love that I can share the products I've been loving or hating with people who might be thinking of purchasing them.
If you could choose one makeup item to take on a desert island what would it be and why? Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Lovesick - practical and pretty.
What is your most lusted product which you are yet to own? Nars Laguna bronzer - I'm not one for bronzing but I've heard it's great for contouring.
What are your favourite things to blog about? Empties - it's so satisfying to reflect on what I've finished up and to know definitively whether I would go out and buy it again.
Where are you from? Manchester.
What three things do you like the most about yourself? Err - My sense of humour - I can always poke fun at myself and take jokes too. My organisational skills which help so much in every day life. I'm reliable - if I say I'm going to be somewhere at a certain time I will always be there.
What things if any do you wish you could change about yourself? I can be quite upfront with people which isn't always a good thing. I'm too much of a people pleaser - I need to do more of what I want to do, rather than what other people want me to do.
Do you prefer nude lips or bright/bold coloured lips? Bright lips every time, they look great against my pale complexion.
Which high street clothing store is your favourite? It has to be H & M - I always find something I like in there.
Which high street makeup brand is your favourite? Revlon - their products are such great quality and don't cost the earth.
Name one product you wouldn't recommend and why? The E.L.F basics eyeliners. They really drag on the eyelid and the colour pay off is dreadful.
My Questions...
1. If you had an unlimited budget what beauty buys would make their way into your basket?
2. If you could visit any place on earth, where would you go?
3. What is your favourite product for a pampering session?
4. How easily do you get sucked in by the hype around beauty products?
5. What is your favourite lip product of all time?
6. Which do you prefer - high end or high street beauty buys?
7. Name an underrated product which you love and would recommend. Why do you love it?
8. What is your favourite make-up look?
9. Favourite non beauty item and why?
10. Where are you from?
11. If you had to describe your blog in three words which would you use?
