dynamo!! :O

hey guys,

This is gonna be a short post for now cause I'm busy watching Dynamo! :D

I absolutely LOVE Dynamo, he's AMAZING, if you've never heard of him before then look him up on you tube. I just saw him pull a $50 note out of some guy's clothes, I mean come on. How is that possible?! :P

And I think most people will have heard of when he walked on water!? It was in the newspapers, and on the Internet..

"Dynamo magician impossible" is on next Thursday, but that's the last one of the series. Seriously, watch it!! :P

Bye for now, Sarah xx

skin care routine

Hi :)

So, I'm really sorry I haven't been able to do a post in a while. I've had end of term tests and general stuff! So this is my daily skin care routine..

In the morning, before school, I go to my bathroom and just do the usual sponge and warm water kind of washing. Just literally going over my face with warm water, easy peasy :P

Then I use this, I just put a little less that a pea on my hand and rub it in (especially when I have a bad spot ;P). But you have to pat your face dry before using it. It is really good, I had another freederm gel thing - but it was really small and I used it all up. Then I got this one because it was cheaper and bigger! I can't quite remember how much it was, but it was defiantly less that £5.

Then when I get home from school - if I'm staying home - i get a face wipe and take off my make up... I'll be honest though, I do forget quite often! That's just to clear my skin and try to prevent spots. I just have like a cheap Waitrose own brand one, I think. I never really notice a difference in face wipes so my dad just buys me the cheap ones.

Then at night, I do exactly as I did in the morning, but if my face feels dirty or particularly oily i will use this.

It's good, but I don't use it everyday because I have quite sensitive skin. Plus it takes quite a long time to use (you have to squirt some foam into your hands and then spread it over your face and wash it off). Its okay if you go to bed early and have time spare.. But I'm not very good when it comes to getting to bed early (still working on it!)

So that's pretty much it, my daily skin care routine! :) I hope you liked it. I do suggest you try some of this because I do get quite a lot of spots, and since I recently started doing this, most of them are gone :D

Byee, Sarah x

Music

Hi :)

So, I've been listening to music LOADS over the past few days - even more that usual!! Therefore I shall be telling you who my favourite artists are.

My most favourite is probably Ben Howard. I only discovered him a few days ago, thanks to my friend Henry (what an amazing ginge!!). He does a lot of acoustic songs, which is good for me cause I love acoustic sounds. And I always find myself humming the the tunes of his songs a while after i was listening to them! check him out on you tube, i like; keep your head up, only love and old pine .. Love them :]

Another one of my favourites is Ed sheeran! I've been listening to him a lot longer, and i do love him. Again, his songs are very acoustic and his lyrics are so clever! I even have a favourite lyric: "I don't get waves of missing you anymore.. they're more like tsunami tides in my eyes..". I mostly listen to small bump, uni, a team and gold rush.

I also sort of like Carly Rae Jepsen.. Also acoustic. I guess i like her because her songs are quite happy and cheer me up when I'm in a bad mood. I don't really have any favourite songs though, just search her on you tube?

That's it, I think! Thanks for reading :)

Bye,
Sarah

Henna!!

Hi there,

So, I was thinking about a new post I could do, and decided id let you guys know about my new found love for henna :)

Just in case you don't know, Henna is like this past stuff made out of dry leaves and other natural things. You put it on your skin and stains it. Temporarily, of course. You can make it, or buy it, but the ones that I have bought were a lot weaker than the ones we used in school (we did it in creativity week) which were made the way people used to.

There's probably some tutorials on line of how to make henna, and the cones you put it on with. But, if you do want to try it then I suggest you make sure you aren't allergic, cause apparently the reactions can be really bad! Plus sometimes you wont be able to dye your hair after or it makes your hair fall out. I know that I'm not allergic because I've had them since i was little, and dyed my hair before, so I'm all good!
The one I got most recently was a wavy line with leaves and a flower on my hand and I really like it! I have some templates that iI got a while ago, but this one was designed by me and drawn on by my friend Chelsea.

So, yeah. I really do recommend getting a Henna tattoo! And that's all from me for now :)

Bye, Sarah x

TheBodyShop review ❤

Hello again,

Right well. I thought I'd really get this blog going by doing a review of all TheBodyShop products that I have. There's quite a few so I suggest you get comfy. So, here you go :P

This is probably my most favourite, I wear it everyday and this is actually an old case, my current one is 04.Its called Pressed Face Powder and I got it for £12.50. Some people might argue that its a bit much for press powder but I really do think its worth it. It hasn't given me spots and it makes my skin feel really soft. And I do suggest you buy this one and not the more expensive one with a little pad. Purely because I don't see the point in paying an extra £1.20. Or you could get one of the expensive ones and keep using the pad thingy (sorry I don't know the name). But you can just do whatever you fancy :)

 My second item from TheBodyShop is called Super Volume Mascara and it costs £10 in the shop but I got it in a deal that was like; spend £40 or more and get some other stuff free, and this is one of the products I got free. I do wear it every day, but I don't think I would recommend it. It is very clumpy and I have to pull the big clumps out. After that it looks okay (which is why I wear it, I guess). Also it does terribly in water. I often go to waterpolo and find myself wiping under my eyes with my fingers so that I don't look like I've just been punched in the face... small exaggeration but you get my point, haha.

This is my Carbon Black Eye Definer, I don't think I would recommend this either actually. I wear it a lot, and i do like it because it's really easy to put on. However, after a day at school, it drops down and you get little lines under you eyes that you have to regularly rub off. Plus it fades a bit, other than that i like it though. Oh, and the smudger works quite well.

These were also from the deal where you get products free if you spend a certain amount of money (most of the money spent was on my mum by the way, i just got the free stuff). They're called Shimmer Cubes and i also got the little brush in the same deal. I don't wear these much because they are glittery so i would use it more for party's or something. But it is really good value for money, costing £16, it doesn't sound like it, but they are literally 4 big blocks of eye shadow and its really compact.

This is Delipscious and i can't remember how much i got it for but it is currently sealing for £2 in the sale, however, it looks like it doesn't sell it in the shade that i got. I like this product, despite the fact that i don't really wear it. I see nothing wrong with it, i just don't think that lipstick really suits 13 year old. As a lipstick it is quite good. The few times that i have actually worn it, i haven't found that it fades or feels sticky... Which is good i guess. I think i would recommend it to people older than me because it is actually good quality for a reasonably cheap lipstick.

This is my Sweet Lemon Lip Butter and i absolutely love it. It was a Christmas present to me, but it's selling for £4. I got it a couple of Christmas's ago and I haven't even gotten to the bottom yet! Plus it smells amazing and tastes almost as good. When i got it i didn't realise that it would make my lips so soft after i used it. That's why i use it mostly in the winter. I would defiantly recommend you buy this! :)

So that's everything i own from TheBodyShop. I hope you enjoyed listening, and maybe this helped you decide what to buy? I'd like to think it did anyway, see you soon!! :)
