3 for 2 make up review

3 for 2 at Boots is a magical thing! I have recently got really into make up and the whole beauty world, watching Tanya Burr videos made me realise there are so many products out there that can help with my complexion and blemishes!


So today (the day before I start college again) I took a trip down to my local Boots store and I was there ages!! I didn't know my foundation colour so I found that quite tricky, I wanted to spend some time working that out so I knew I had the best match possible. 


FOUNDATION
You are all probably wondering what I bought so the first product is this Seventeen 'On The Spot' foundation and it says 'Clearer Skin in 4 week' and the type I bought was Soft Ivory.


They claim to give full coverage and this is something I need because I don't have the best complexion so I will be looking out to see if this works! I bought Soft Ivory and I got professional help so hopefully this is my best colour match.
I really like the packaging, I have never had anything in this layout so I think it is nice to have something different and it also gives a professional finish to the packaging.

PRIMER
The next product that I bought was again Seventeen, Stay Time 'Long Wear Primer' I have always wanted a primer because I find it really important for my make up to last all day and I want to feel confident when wearing make up so I really hope this primer does its trick.


 I find the packaging quite small but I guess you don't need to wear a lot. It is smaller enough to place in my make up bag and this is something every girl probably looks for too!


Lipstick
I am sad to say that because Polly is such clumsy woman. I have bought THE WRONG LIPSTICK!!! I was so gutted but I did get it free because I got the 3 for 2 so I got the cheapest free which I think is the lipstick!?

My jaw dropped when I realised that I got it wrong! But I still like the colour I'd personally not choose this colour straight away but if I am having an off day I guess its a colour I could wear if I one day don't want to be so loud with my make up choice!


I really like the packaging, it is nothing too special but I love the colour of the packaging, very vibrant and again small enough to place in my make up bag with no trouble!

What's Polly wearing?

Hey everybody! I hope you've all had an amazing Easter holiday, I think its gone so quick!! The weather has been mixed up a bit, a few days with I would say a mini heat wave on one of the Fridays! Wearing black jeans and a leather jacket (bad idea Polly)

Anyway I am now posting what I was 
 wearing on a certain day in the Holidays! And the outfit I chose to blog about was the hottest day I was just talking about!!!

Me and my best friend Kiera (who is also a new YouTuber) decided to do a 'Best Friend Tag' answering questions and deciding who out of us two would more likely to do that, does that make sense? Anyway I will post a link at the bottom so you guys can check out the video!

We didn't want to waste the sunny sunshine so we took a rather nice walk a long all the field with beautiful scenery where Kiera lived and we knew this would be perfect for a photo so we took the opportunity and took some piccies!

Spring style outfit

Hey everybody! I have wanted to do this for a while a Spring style outfit that I have chosen myself researching through the high street stores to get inspiration or searching online. 

The first outfit that I have taken a shine too is this orange textured tee crop top from Topshop costing £32, I think the price is considerable. 

The colour is tangerine, with a visable zip at the back, quarter sleeves which covers ya skin up. I personally really like this garment and I might invest and report back on what I feel like wearing it! 

Pairing the crop top with this cordinated mid knee lengh 50's style skirt and this piece cost £45 which is much more then the crop top obviously using more material but I guess if you don't shop all the time and you have your heart set on this it's alright to buy it ;) 
And lastly I would style this outfit with these Primark heels that cost £12!!!! *runs down to the shops* A strap around the ankle which I would find very useful since my feet get pretty sweaty so the strap will hold my feet down! 
There are some in a darker shade of orange but whether you are confident enough to where all the similar colours that is up to yaa! (these look quite suede too)! 
Texture Crop Tee- £32 Topshop 
Texture Orange skirt- £45 Topshop 
Black or orange heels- £12 Primark 

Thanks for reading! and please comment for any more information!.. Polly X

What I bought from Paris!

Hey everybody! Looking back on my previous posts I've realised that I never posted what I bought in Paris when I went in February with college! 

I wont be going into detail about the trip since its on another post but I bought some stuff from Topshop that was in this fancy shopping mall which was called Galleries Lafayette, I have never seen as many designers in my life! 

I can't remember them all but Chanel was a popular one, I can remember seeing Michael Kors and Louis Vuitton.



I was so happy to see the Topshop because of my age I can relate to Topshop a lot more then all the designer stores that were there and the price range was obviously a lot similar to England's Topshop! 

The first purchase I made from Topshop was this suede material glittery flower patterned playsuit I can't remember the price for any of these purchases so I apologise but I think it was around €30+ and it was on sale too!! (40%-). 

I have worn this playsuit so many times! It's something that will never go out of fashion. I wear mine with high boots (that's in another post coming soon!) or you could opt for a slim heel that will make the trouser look shorter because they are quite long but with my footwear their no problem! 

I am going to do a style post soon so hopefully this will be an outfit that I'll post up! 

Another purchase that I made in Topshop was this light pastel blue jumper, with a really pretty jeweled neck piece, the only problem that I have is that it takes me ages to get this tiny string threw the hole which keeps the two top back pieces connected together! 
But overall the jumper I find really comfy, the cotton material is gorgeous, wear with any type of jean. (I wear mine with fake leather jeans). Again I can't remember the price (sowweee) 

That's all that I really bought from Paris, so thanks for reading!
