Morning routine 2013! Laura

Hey guys!
Today I will be showing you my winter morning routine because i'm on winter break woo!

1- Wake up, i usually wake up at around 1 or 2 because I don't have to go to school. Then i usually spend an hour chilling on my phone.

2- Eat, my favourite thing to eat is porridge or cereal because it's healthy and gives you nutritions for the rest of the day.

3- Shower, i usually wash my hair at night so i'll take a quick 5 minute shower in the morning. I use the nivea shower gel to wash my body, clean and clear cream wash to wash my face and just normal toothpaste to brush my teeth.

4- Get ready, after i'll dry myself and apply nivea body moisturiser to moisturise my skin. Then i'll do my makeup (check my everyday makeup tutorial to see what i use), i do my hair which is usually a braid or i'll straighten my hair.

5- Get dressed

6- Leave my house.

Thats it! Obviously if i'm not doing anything that day then i won't get ready.
Hope you enjoyed;)

Give your heart a break (literally!): Clear signs you're over a guy

Hello my darlings,
How's your Christmas going?



Ever wonder if you're actually over your ex or crush?
Here are some signs that indicate that you are.

ONE- You don't think of that person as much as you used to in the past.

TWO- You don't get jealous if someone is flirting with them or they're flirting with another person. You honestly couldn't care less.

THREE- You would try anything to get close to him like making silly excuses just to talk to them....now you don't even feel like talking to him/her.

FOUR- When you see cute love qoutes/cute couples on instagram or tumblr you would think of him/her but now to you, they are JUST quotes and couples.

FIVE- You would get upset when you thought of him/her because you thought that you're not attractive or good enough. You've realized that now that you are too good for him/her and that they've missed their chance.

SIX-If they're around, it doesn't even concern you.

SEVEN- If you start liking someone else that means that you definitly are over him!

Did this help you? Comment below.
IF you're not over him, check out my other post about how to get over a guy by clicking here.

Goodbye darlings xxx
And remember they're not worth your tears.

Sweet as Candy: Lush Snow Fairy shower gel review

Hey Bees,
Snow Fairy: All 3 sizes

About a month ago, I went to town with the Fam. We happened to pass by a lush shop and my natural instincts kicked in and I automaticcally went in. Now if you've ever been in a Lush shop, as soon as you go in, you're greeted by about 100 different scents and it's a bit overwhelming.  But if you managed to stay within 5 minutes you've survived the most difficult part. I knew the Christmas stock was in so I looked around, hoping to spot a new product to try & then I saw it. On a little self beside "Ponche" and "Rose Jam". It sorta had this glowing lightcoming down onto it. I took one sniff and I had to get it. It was like love at first sniff! Now the low-down:

Product: Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel
Packaging: Simple Lush shower tube, pastel pink colour
Scent: Extremely sweet and smell like Lush lip scrub "Bubblegum"

Good:
  1. With Lush shower gels, they last like forever! So instead of the biggest tube, I got the middle one.
  2. The scent lingers on skin.
  3. Good lather and scent is not as strong when lathered up.
  4.  The scent is sweet but a bit overwhelming                                                                                                                     
Bad:
  1. Price: about £6.50 (euros) is a bit overpriced whether its Lush or not.
  2. Scent can be too sweet for those who do not like sweet scented things
  3. Product is limited edition.
  4. Scent is similar to other products in Lush

So overall I think this product is amazing! Not only is it good for your skin, it makes you smell like a sweet gumdrop.  Rate: 4/5 ( the price is too much)

Would I repurchase? YES!

I hope you guys enjoyed this review! Don't forget to comment, tell your friends and to keep on reading our blog! Have an amazing New Year!

Let's get dramatic! "Marry him if You Dare" KDrama review

Hello kdrama lovers!

Today I'm gonna review the drama Marry Him If You Dare.


Let's start off with the characters.
Well they didn't surprise me all that much. I've honestly seen it all before. You have the girl that wants to change her life around(Na Mi- Rae) , the nice guy who tries to get the girl but obviously doesn't(Park Se-joo), the b!tch(Seo Yoo-kyung) and the jerk who falls in love and some how it changes his whole personality(Kim Shin). Also the chemistry between the characters isn't all that good. Like it wouldn't have killed them to put in a kissing scene (and the dream kiss from episode 3 does not count). I just felt as if she didn't truly love neither guys but there are some really romantic scenes that you wish would happen in your life.

The plot was interesting at the start. The time traveling theme and all seemed to be very appeling but slowly I felt as if the writers forgot why Na Mi-rae came back to the past. If my future self came back to stop me from marrying someone because I'd end up having a miserable life ahead of me, I would listen to the future me!
I was hooked and in love with the drama at first but gradually as it went on, it bored me and I wasn't too pleased with the ending...... it was okay, I guess.

Since I'm already giving out about the drama, I might as well talk about Na Mi-Rae's hair! What in the name of lord were the stylists thinking. The colour nor the style suits her. I would have refused if I was in her shoes. Thank god she changed her hair style half way through the drama.

It might seem as if I hate it but I don't.
There's a few life lessons that you could learn from this drama like...
-Don't mess with faith or love. If it was meant to be, it'll happen.
-In a cruel world, they'll always be a ray of hope.
-Everything happens for a reason.
-Family is important so try to get along with them.
-Always do something for the sake of others.
There could be others which I havn't mentioned.

There's a lot of cute scenes which want to make you asdfghjkl.
The drama does have its pros and its cons but in all fairness it was pretty good.
I'd  rather have watched a drama about what happened if Kim Shin and Na Mi-Rae did end up together. They should make one!

Tell me down in the comment section if you have watched Marry Him If You Dare if so did you like it?

Bye for now xxx

Everyday Tutorial: Zahra

Hey I'm back with a make up tutorial.
Laura's done her everyday make up tutorial so you can go check it out here.

Nivea Soft Moisturising Cream
Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream
Missha Under Eye Brightener
Alix Avien Powder
Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil


First thing, I apply a layer of moistering cream before putting on my conclear. I only apply it to my dark circles or spots if any are extermly visible. I like liquid conclear the best because I feel as if it hides your dark circles more rather than the stick or powder ones, I dunno that's just my opinion. What's yours? 

Next is my BB cream. Some people like to apply it with their hands and others like to apply it with a brush. I like to use my hands.

Powder/Foudation: I only where it if I'm going somewhere other than school. I currently use powder (have to buy new foundation) but I try to use less of it because my parents don't like it and they lecture me on how bad it is and that'll ruin my face. I kinda agree with them though.

My fav, eyeliner. I use gel pencil eyeliner. All I put it on the waterline and tightline. I simply drag (don't drag it out too much) and join it on the outer edge.

I do my eyeshadow and lipsick different colours each day. But for simple days I only apply the eyeshadow to my lid and for my lips, I pick a colour to suit the eyeshadow and wear lipgloss to make my lips pop more.

For mascara I like to wear two coats of different ones to make them look longer.

So that was my everyday make-up look. Comment below on what's your?

See You Later,
-Zahra
