Life Update!!

Hi There,
I guess my new years promise has went down the potty since I haven't posted since February.......... I am truly sorry as I have been caught up with school work since I am doing part of my GCSE's this year which means work work work! I really feel like I have abandoned this little blog BUT I am going to try and find a little time at the weekend to fit in a blog post because I love writing on my blog as I feel I can zone out from everyday life and just have me and the laptop typing away. so today i am writing some posts which i will schedule to be uploaded and therefore you will have something to read over the next week. Then I am off for two weeks for easter and even though I will be revising for my Exams I will try to write a few posts that will hopefully take me up to after my exams. I hope you forgive me but watch this space over the next few weeks and hopefully there will be more posts up.

See You Soon,

Grainne

Youtube?!?

Hi Everyone,
I am back and I have some slightly exciting news. As you may of already guessed by the title of this post, I am attempting to start up a youtube channel. I will have to see how it works out but so far i have uploaded 1 video in which i haul all that I bought on my shopping trip last weekend.
The sound and picture quality isn't the best in the video but i am trying to sort that out, I am also trying to sort out some music for the background to make it not so "dull". I explain everything in the video but i would just like to say that I am not definitely sure I will continue youtube but if it gets a good response I hopefully will. I hope you like the Video!

Makeup Storage and Organisation

If you know me than you know that I am a total organisation freak and if something is out of place I am not happy! Recently I have not been very happy with the layout of my makeup so I started a little hunt to find the perfect organiser. First I went on to Muji as I totally adore the acrylic storage that they have but once I seen the price tag it was a totally different ball game, if you did not know I am a student, I have not got a job and christmas and birthday money has to last me a whole year so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to afford Muji storage. I then went and searched on Google "Cheap UK Makeup Storage" and barely anything relevant came up (one of the main reasons why I am doing this post), I did find one blog that mentioned storage at WHSmith (sorry I can't remember the name of it) so I went on to the website and set my eyes on a six drawer storage system Here and I knew that was the exact one that I was looking for.

Before I show any pictures of my storage I will do the same as anyone else who does these types of post I am not trying to brag, honestly I don't even feel that I have that much makeup especially since the fact that most of it is drugstore and all the makeup I have I am grateful for. Obviously there is not much point in me showing my storage with nothing in it so that is why I kept all of my makeup in the unit. Now on to the actual storage. 

Here is an overview of my storage. It fits perfectly on top of my little cabinet.

On top of my storage I keep my palettes, brushes, tools and my mirror I like the way there is still some place on top to place some of my products when I am getting ready in the mornings.

In the top row of the unit there is three shallow drawers which in the left one I keep my blushes and highlighters, the middle I keep my powders and bronzers and in the right lip balms and tinted lip balms and in the back some eye cream spot gel and blotting paper.

In the second row there is two much deeper drawers and in the left one I keep all of my face products; primers, foundations, BB creams and concealers. Int the right drawer I keep my lip liners, Lipsticks and Lipglosses.

In the very last drawer is my eye drawer in here I keep; smaller quads of eyeshadows, eye and brow pencils, mascaras and eye shadow bases and pencils.

I am very happy with my storage and I hope this may of helped you if you are in the same boat as me or if you would just like some very pretty storage.

See You Soon
