Review: Tanya Burr's Nail Polish

Hi everyone!
Today I decided to do another review. :) So today I'm reviewing Tanya Burr's Nail polish! So if you don't know who Tanya Burr is (I'm sure a lot of you do!) She is a Youtuber. She does different videos like Make up tutorials, get ready with me videos and many more! About one or two months ago she came out with a collection , "Tanya Burr's Lips and Nails". There is various different shades of Nail polishes but today I'll be reviewing "Little Duck" and "Mini Marshmallow" Now I have to say for a nail polish that isn't in a make up collection like Barry M or Natural Collection , it is a really good quality! So the first one is "Mini Marshmallow" I love this because it is more of a natural colour. :) You literally just have to put on one lair and it is perfect. Then there is "Little Duck" Which has to be my favourite especially during spring! All during spring I have been obsessed with this kind of Minty green colour or in this case duck egg colour! It is just such a good nail polish! So if you are interested in buying this (Which I highly recommend) then you can head on over to www.feelunique.com or if you are in the UK then you can find these products in Superdrug! 
What should I review next?

Review: Soap and Glory, Shampoo + Conditioner!

So today I decided to do a review! Since the Soap and Glory shampoo and conditioner were in my Monthly Favourites I wanted to review them for you. :) So recently I've been loving the Soap and Glory shampoo and conditioner. I only purchased the travel size bottles because some shampoos and conditioners don't agree with my hair, they could make it greasy or just might not smell nice! But I will be definitely buying the larger bottles! For me Soap and Glory products are a must have for summer! The scent is just so fresh and lovely! With the shampoo and conditioner the nice smell actually stays in your hair until you wash your hair next, unlike other products. Normally for me the smell of my shampoo gets covered over by hairspray or heat protectant but with Soap and Glory it doesn't. :) But not only does it have a nice scent it keeps your hair nice and soft! So I recommend you go and buy yourself some Soap and Glory. It may not be the cheapest but it is definitely worth the money!
 What would you like me to review next?

April Monthly Favourites!!

Hi everyone! So since it is coming up to the end of April I decided to do my April Monthly Favourites! So I just want to point out that all of these pictures were taking by myself. :)
The first thing is hair products. For my hair I've been loving my Soap and Glory shampoo and conditioner during April. I got these about 2 weeks into April and have been loving them! I only got the travel size ones because sometimes I try a shampoo and it doesn't agree with my hair and makes it greasy or maybe it just doesn't smell nice! But I will definitely be purchasing the larger bottles. :)
 You can get these in any store that sells Soap and Glory products I'm sure!


 
For nails this month I have been loving two products! The first is Models Own nail polish. This is in the shade "Pinky Dinky"! It is this gorgeous neon pink colour and is perfect for the spring and summer. :) I'm not really a person who wears pink nail polish but I've been wearing this a lot this month!

The next nail product I've been using a lot this month is the "Sally Hanson Hard as Nails" base coat. So what you do is just apply this to a clean nail! So I sometimes just put this on if I'm not wearing any nail polish or I find it is easier to apply your nail polish when this is on. :) So you can purchase both of these items as any store that sells Sally Hanson and Models Own products!
 
 
So next is body products. This month I have been using one body product a lot and that is the Soap and Glory "Clean on Me" shower gel. So this just smells amazing! And it is a built in body lotion so it just makes your skin so soft! Again I was just trying this out so I got the small bottle but I will be going back and buying the biggest one they have! So again you can purchase this shower gel in any store that sells Soap and Glory products. :)
 

 
So the next product is lips! So the lip product I've been loving for April has been my Baby Lips in the colour "Pink Punch" So I actually think this was in my March favourites along with another baby lips but it is just so amazing I used it again for April! And I'm pretty sure it will be in my May favourites! Anyway so this is just a really pretty pink colour and the reason I love it is that it's a lip balm with a hint of colour so it is perfect for Spring and Summer. :) So you will be able to have this in your make up bag if you just head to a store that sells Maybelline products!
 
 
And the last product are just some random things! So the first random thing that I have been loving through April is my mint green sunglasses! So you can get these in a Penneys/Primark. I just love the colour as well! And another thing that I love is that it actually keeps the sun out of your eyes unlike some sunglasses which just don't do the job, like I can literally look at the sun with my eyes open! (Though I don't recommend you do that!)
 
 
 
And the last thing that I've been loving throughout April is another random thing which is the Divergent book. Now I honestly thought this was just going to be a complete copy of the Hunger Games but it isn't! I haven't seen the film yet but I'm in the middle of the book and I am addicted to it! I'm one of those people who finds it really hard to get into and book but this one is just so easy to get into and is easy to understand. :)
 

 
And that is all my monthly favourites! So since it was the end of spring and the weather was so nice I decided to take the photos outside for a change. :) Make sure to check out my March Monthly Favourites! Thanks so much for reading. :)

Low Fat Apple Crumble!

Hey everyone! So today I wanted to show you guys a low fat apple crumble recipe :) So lets get started!
So all you will need is...
  • Some granola (I recommend the Special K one)
  • Some Sweetener
  • 3-4 medium cooking apples


So the first thing you need to do is obviously wash you hands haha :) And then set your cooker to 180 degrees (Gas mark 4).

 
 
Then the next thing you have to do is wash your apples and peel them. So I'm using just a normal hand peeler but if you are talented (unlike me!) and can peel with a knife than go ahead and do so!
 
 
When you have the apples peeled it is time to slice them! So I recommend, if you can, cut them quite finely if you cant do this don't worry (I had a lot of difficulty!) you can just cut them normally :) Then when you have them all cut you just put hem into a mixing bowl!
 
 
 

 
Now it is time to make the apple filling! So you already have your apples in the bowl so now you add in your sugar and water, This isn't necessary but if  you have some plain flour you can just add a tablespoon of that in but if you don't that is fine just continue on with your sweetener and water :)
 


 
 
 
 Then when you have that all mixed together you can get an oven dish and pop you apple mix into that. Make sure that your apples are evened out in the bowl so your granola goes on nice :) So when you have it all evened out you can pour on your granola!
 


                                              
                                              

Then when you have your granola on you can go ahead and put it in the oven! Let it cook for about 30-40 minutes, You will know when it is done because the granola would of went a lot darker. There is no uncooked with this recipe you just want to really mix the flavours together and get it nice and hot. :)
 
 
So when you think it is ready, grab your over gloves and take it out! So for serving, if you want to stay on the low fat side of things you can have this with a bit of some Greek style yogurt or if you are looking for a bit of a treat you can have it with some fresh cream! Either way it is delicious!
 
 

And there you have it! A nice tasty low fat apple crumble! Hope everyone enjoyed this, make sure to let me now if you want more in the future. Thanks for reading. :)

Easter/Spring Outfit Ideas!!

Hey you guys! So today I decided to show you some outfit ides that you can wear for Easter or Spring! So I asked you guys what shops you would like me to pick from and a lot of you said
Primark/Penneys, New Look and H&M! So here is the first outfit!.....

OUTFIT NO.1


 




So the first outfit is a nice casually comfy outfit! The top, leggings and clutch are from Primark/Penneys and the pumps are from newlook! These outfit is quite reasonable but still looks very pretty! You can wear this anywhere! You can wear it casual or formal it is just that type of outfit:)

OUTFIT NO.2




The second outfit is my favourite! During spring so far I've been loving this type of mint green colour! So this outfit is completely from New Look. You could also wear this for summer. Since it is spring and the weather isn't roasting wear I live I found this cardigan and put it with the outfit but if you are in a hot country or you might want to wear it in summer the outfit without the cardigan is also very pretty! So again this isn't a very expensive outfit and I just love the clutch handbag! You can wear this over your shoulder or as a clutch either way it just finishes of the outfit! 
 

OUTFIT NO.3





So for outfit number 3 I found this coral blazer and just fell in love with it! This is another outfit that can be casual or formal! I think the coral colour really brings out the spring vibe in this outfit!. The blazer and shoes are from New Look and the jeans and top are form H&M. You can wear any sort of black top with this outfit. I recommend wearing a plain one because you don't want to have to much going on, that is why I picked the black top and clutch because I think the shoes and the blazer are the main part of the outfit and you don't really want to bring much attention to the top. This blazer I think just finishes of the outfit! I love the way it has kinda like a waterfall effect at the front. So that is what allows you to wear it as a formal outfit as well!
 

OUTFIT NO.4





 

 

 So for the final outfit you are using some of the items from the previous outfits. So again  you can wear this casual or formal. So what really brings out the spring in this outfit is most likely the handbag! I love the floral affect and it just fits perfectly into the outfit! The cardigan, jeans, shoes and handbag are all form New Look and the top is from H&M. This is another quite reasonable outfit and is perfect for the spring and summer time!
 
Hope you enjoyed these few outfit ideas! Make sure to let me know what your favourite one is down in the comments! Thanks for reading :)
