Sorry for no post in a while!

Hi everyone!
Just a chatty post again. I just wanted to say sorry for no post in a while! I have had a TON of homework, (literally a ton) and whilst I am writing this i actually have homework in front of me. Haha!
I'm going to do some more reviews of plenty of other things. I have a lot of things in storage (in my mind) of things to upload, and probably a video on it too. Things like the Rimmel 60 seconds nail polish, some more Fashion Thoughts and stuff like that. 
I know this is a really short post, but I do have to get on! Hopefully I will do another post later on today, once I have finished it all :).
Alright, I guess this is the end then! 
Thank you guys for reading and stay true to who you are!

Quick Update & AMA!

Hiya everyone!
Just wanted to do a chatty kind of post today, didn't really feel like doing a kind of review, Fashion Thought or anything like that, just chat. :)
So, recently I have been making a whole BATCH of videos, just to let you know if you watch them, I don't wear the same clothes all the time;).
I have made a hair tutorial, Get ready with me: shopping and also a triple Jessie J OOTD video. I was wearing a JJ top, I got inspired ya know, with the Aztec leggings and...
ANYWAY getting back to life rather than fashion, I would also like to do a video on this, and a blog post too. 
I was going to ask everybody who reads my blog/ watches my videos if they could ask me a load of questions, bacically like a Ask Me Anything.
So could you comment below a load of questions each? It would be great and I will make a video on it and link  it on my next kinda chatty post if I have done it. 
So I would like to thank you guys for reading and stay true to who you are!

Fashion Thoughts: Aztec Leggings!

Hiya everyone!
So now I have decided (2 days into blogging) that I am going to do a series of posts which are going to be called Fashion Thoughts.
There will probably be other things in-between, like if I went on a cool day out or something I will also blog about that, not just for like ages blogging about Fashion Thoughts. 
To start of these series of posts I am going to do...
AZTEC LEGGINGS!
Now before I start, I bought this beauty from Primark which is actually from the kids section for £5! I fitted into them well and saw a load more lovely ones that I will probably have another look at on my next shopping spree.
Getting on with it, my main opinion is that they are just so amazing! I think that it's great that people are coming out of they're shell kinda thing and just coming to this new colourful and bubbly world if ya know what I mean ;). I personally started to get a bit bored of the plain black ones. Not that I didn't like them; don't get me wrong. I think they are nice and comfortable and you can/could wear them with anything, but I really like this new kinda style of bright and colourful fancy leggings.
I have seen them around ALOT recently, actually. I have seen so many colours and want them all! 
This is actually my first purchase of aztec'cky fancy bright coloured leggings. Before (but I actually didn't wear them much) I just wore black ones and as I said for me they just got a bit boring.
When I saw them I did definately first think: 'I won't look good in them' because I didn't know if I could pull it off with what I usually wear or if I will look good in them. I tried them on with Karina ;) and we loved them to pieces. We also tried on the Galaxy leggings. Oh. My. Gosh. I. Love. Them. So. Much.
They also look equally amazing, but unfortunately they weren't either our size. We thought we might have another look another time. :)
So, coming to an end of this post my main thought on them is they are blooming amazing. They are bright, colourful, and gets people out of their comfort zone (maybe) to go into this colourful aztec world of leggings.
I'm not sure if I will wear them out yet, I will see if they go well with other things in my wardrobe, and will give you an update/tell you how my thoughts are then but yeah these are my thoughts now.
So I would like to thank you guys for reading and stay true to who you are!

Review: Primark Beauty Nail Foils!

Hiya Everyone!
Yes yes, yet again another review...
Sorry about this... please comment below if you are starting to get bored of it! Haha!
So this time it's going to be on the Primark Beauty Nail Foils! 
Both of them together...
That's the leopard print one (been half used ;))
And this is (what I would call) the Cath Kidson inspired one.

I haven't actually heard much about them from many youtubers/bloggers so I decided to do one for myself. I wasn't sure if many people had even tried them out either, so yeah, that's kinda why I'm doing a series of posts on just reviews reviews reviews. 
Just a quick note: If you think I am doing O.K at all this beauty blogging, please comment below so then I know if I am doing anything wrong, but by the way, please don't judge me on my opinion. You can tell me if something that I said is called something else; that's fine. Just don't comment all that silly kinda stuff. 
Anyway, getting to the point, Primark Beauty Nail Foils.
Now the first thing I looked for was the price. Nail foils can definately be pricey, so I didn't want to pay like £6 for something that can come off pretty easily. These beauties were £1! Wahey for bargains!
These foils are really easy to apply. Simply rub your forefinger and thumb onto the paper where the foils are stuck to for like 3 seconds and your ready to go. Simply peel them off and stick on. 
Some of the foils are bad shapes, for me anyway. I think the ones I tried would be amazing on toes, though. It wasn't a problem that they were too big for my nails; I realized when I saw that all I had to do is grab something like a toothpick and go around the edges with. And your done! 
Then what I decided to do is to put a top coat over it, just to make sure the design stays on. I knew I had a swimming gala later as I was putting them on, (yes yes I know pretty dumb) but I really was DESPERATE to try them on. Yeah. Very easy indeed. 
Obviously it started to peel off in the pool, but don't worry, there wasn't peelings of nail foil all over the pool. I just took it off and put them in the bin after I finished the warm up.
Over all, I think they are AMAZINGLY cheap for a great product as practically all nail foils do that (come off in the water). 
I do highly reccomend them as they are so cheap rather than paying like £6-£10 for something exactly the same from boots or claire's or something!
By the way, there is LOADS of designs. I got a leopard print one and a Cath Kidson inspired design. As you can see by the picture up there ;)
So I would like to thank you guys so much for reading and stay true to who you are!

Little Tip For Long Lashes ;)

Hey everyone!
So now I am going to do a little tip/trick post for all of you today. 
It's a secret to long lashes! Well to be honest, it's not actually a secret really, most people have found out about  it by now but I thought I might just make a post to tell you guys how it's worked for me and how I do it and all that kinda shizzle :)
So the secret is...
VASELINE!
Yeah, that's it. Or petrolleum jelly to be precise. ;)
It's really simple, just simply massage in with your forefinger and thumb and massage as close to the lash line as possible. You really don't need much either, just put your forefinger in the tub and take a little dab.
That's really it. Easy, right?!
So now I am gonna just say how it worked for me.
In my last post, I was talking about my mascara and how it boosted up to near my brow bone, but that can't be done with just mascara alone. 
Vaseline really actually does work!
The way I done it for a couple of days-a week was like I said massage it into my eyelashes before I go to bed and leave it there until I wake up. When I wake up it seems to be gone (like the greasyness) but if there is some there that I don't know about I just do my normal facial routine and use my Simple facial wash and mouisturiser, so I am sure if you just washed your face in the morning as per usual then you will be good to go. 
I done it for around a week when apparently your supposed to do it for around 2-3 weeks, but i honestly didn't need to! They are great now the way it is. 
If you didn't know this trick then great, go try it out as Vaseline is probably really cheap from any kinda drugstore.
Also, I forgot to say that this is a much much much cheaper trick then getting all that expensive stuff from specialists in eyelashes and all that silliness. If your wanting more growth and oomph in your lashes then Vaseline is the way forward!
I hope you guys have a great day and stay true to who you are!

Review: Collection 2000 Skyscraper Mascara

Hiya Everyone!
So now I'm doing yet another review, but this time on some lovely mascara. :)
For me the skyscraper mascara is blooming amazing! It does exactly what it says. Except, it says nothing to do with clumps, and at the time I bought this, I was a bit worried, haha. The reason for this is that probably like everybody else. I absolutely deteste clumps! NO! They just look...clumpy! (lol!) But yeah. When i saw the brush, i was already raving. It's got different sides on each half. One side is fairly short and the other is fairly long and flimsy. I love it like that because the short side can be used on your lower lashes and the long one for your tops. No clumps whatsoever, and surprisingly makes your lashes SUPER long. By saying it makes them long, I don't mean making long so it touches your chin or something, but like for me, almost near my brow bone. My eyelashes bare aren't very long but I have been massaging Vaseline into it to see if it makes it longer (little tip for you there!) and I can definately see a difference but this mascara makes another huge difference too. Which helps, I guess, haha. 
You can grab this in Boots/Superdrug for £5 I think or £4.99 to be precise ;)
Well hope you guys have a great day and be true to who you are!

Review: Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation&Concealer

Hiya everybody!


Today's blog post is going to be a review, yay(:
Just before I start on the concealer, my tip to these to products bought together would be to get exactly the same shade. I did and it works perfectly. I have heard about that some people have used the shade lighter than the foundation, which i thought is a bit pointless, really. I bought exactly the same shade (Ivory 100) on both of them and personally I have found that it's a fantastic mix!
Now for me, this concealer is absolutely amazing! Unlike some other concealers, it's applicator is a dophut one(I think that's how you spell it?! Haha) and this makes it soo much easier to apply/use. What i do it just do a couple of pats under my eyes, blemishes and around my t-zone. It it kinda like a highlighter too, not too loight and not just plain the same exactly like the foundation. It definately does what it says on the bottle: 'wake me up'. It practically moves the dark circles away and brings the light into the highlights of your skin. Fantastic product!
Now onto the foundation...(and it probably sounds like I am getting paid for this or something because I keep saying good things about these two products)... But this is just as amazing! Again it looks like you have been awake for ages (lol?) and it just really super illuminating. It's a light coverage which personally I really love, and it's possible to get away with it in school without looking orange. I have freckles and I really don't mind them being shown to be honest, this is a light coverage but kinda fades them away when worn. I think this is double amazing because last night I went to a disco and realised when I went to the bathroom that it illuminates my skin even more with bright lights because it has the tiniest littlest smallest specks of glitter so then your looking jazzy in the spotlight. Cool huh?!
This products are super dooper amazing and suggest having a look in Boots/Superdrug when your next on your shopping sprees. When I bought this and know that still does, that in Superdrug and Boots there is an offer on Rimmel London makeup. The offer is that if you buy £10's worth of things from Rimmel London you get the scandal eyes mascara free! That was pretty awesome if you ask me. I bought these two products I am reviewing now to make up to something around the £15 mark.
So I will speak to you guys in my next blog post, hope this has helped people make some decicions up about this :)

Lizzie xoxo'

Hello and Welcome(:♥


Hey guys!
This is my first post, woah ... haha!
So this post is just going to be a kinda get to know me sorta post, nothing beauty related or review or anything.


So getting on with it, my name is Lizzie, and I am 13 years old, living in London.
I love making YouTube videos and being creative with beauty stuff and love shopping.

Making videos with friends is fun too because then you get to share the fun :) things like tutorials for nails, eyes, or hair do interest me alot :) 
I love reading Zoella and Sprinkleofglitter's blog, they are so intriguing. Sometimes it's best to write things down   rather than saying it, sometimes it's just a bit easier.
This isn't a very long post but soon I am going to do reviews on things, put up pics of days out, and just what bloggers do.
It's weird doing this, I haven't done it before but I am already starting to enjoy it.
It's also possible that I might do some blogging as if I am doing a tag on youtube, like maybe the 'Get to Know me' tag or the '50 questions' tag, it would be quite fun I guess.
So if you want to, come have a look around my channel! the link is:
http://www.youtube.com/user/LizBob98 and I have a range of videos but might make up a new channel or something, not sure yet. 

Can't wait to blog again! 
Lizzie xoxo
PS: My instagram is Lizziemay98 if you want to see the load of pictures I post daily! And tweet me at @LizzieeMay, I always reply :) xoxo
