MUA GLITTERBALL PALETTE

hi guys. this is a palette i got in superdrug for £4. it is well worth the money and highly pigmented. easy to blend and brings a nice  pop of colour to any eye look. i would recommend doing your eye makeup before face makeup when using this product as things can get a bit messy with all the particles of glitter throughout the eye shadow. this palette is from MUA and is called GLITTER-BALL. some swatches i found online and i took.- 1st picture= i took......the rest= google images.haha

essence makeup

hi everyone, a couple of questions for you???
i am thinking of extending my makeup collection with my one of my favourite drugstore brand....ESSENCE...i actually only have 3 things from essence but heard alot of great reviews from the brand...what should i get???

i already have a 2in1 mascara which i like but is a bit clumpy and kind of  ruined my lashes...uhhhh
i also have a gel liner in black which is awesome...doesn't smudge and stays all day!!!
i already have their mousse foundation which i use as a concealer because it is nice and soft and gives loads of coverage.....i love this brand because it is not that expensive and is such good quality..if you have anymore recommendations please leave a comment or contact me on DressingUpInBeauty@hotmail.com

time to wash

hi guys and girls so today i was going to do another weight post but i thought...BORING...so i am going to show what i use in my shower and before and after my shower.
BEFORE I GET INTO THE SHOWER I HAVE TO APPLY A PRESCRIBED SCALP TREATMENT TO MY SCALP BECAUSE I SUFFER BADLY WITH PSORIASIS ON MY SCALP!!! :(...
1.  I take my clothes off and put them in the wash.
2.  I go down to my shower room and take my makeup off with face wipes, e.g. Nivea and sometimes pure face wipes. i then wash my face with a solutions exfoliating face wash.
3. Once the shower is nice and heated i jump in and wet my hair and body i wash my body thoroughly and if i am going to exfoliate i exfoliate with GOK's body polish (which is actually an exfoliater not an actual polish.. aha.
4. i shave after that (every 3 days)
5.  I apply head and shoulders anti-dandruff shampoo because i suffer from psoriasis on my head and it stops the itchiness from it.
6. I wash my hair thoroughly to get all the product off my scalp and once the noticeable product is off my hair i use a small brush and scrub my scalp to take away any dry unwanted skin...aha that sounds very weird.
7.  I  don't actually always wash my hair with conditioner because i find it oils up my hair an awful lot and i don't necessarily need it every time i wash my hair, i use it every 2nd time i  wash my hair.
8.  I then final just rub my body head to toe under the water and finally i am done.
9. When i get out i tie my hair up in a towel turban. this drys it out a lot and stops the wet hair from dripping down my dry clothes when i am getting dressed.
10. I dry my body making sure to dry every where including the backs on my ears and legs and arms, my arm pits etc.
11. i apply GOK's body butter to my body and once it dry i apply lirene coffee tinted moisturizer. it's actually a foreign brand but smells so good.i apply clean and clears moisturiser to my face.
12. after i am completely dry and not all sticky from the butters i put on my p.j's because i normally have a shower at around 8 o'clock at night.
13. my mum or friend normally dry's and straightens my hair for me because i love getting my hair done by other people it is so relaxing. :)
14. i am quite sleepy after that but find time to click on my blogs. you can guess where i'm heading now...;) THE SHOWER!!

please note.....

  • i have a shower everyday but only wash my hair every 2nd or 3rd day.
  • i only condition my hair every 2nd time i wash my hair
  • i exfoliate my body twice a week and not once because i tend  to get very dry unwanted skin.
  • i use most prescribed products on my hair because of my scalp.
  • If i do hardcore exercising i will of course wash after it.
  • i also apply a moisturizing deodorant to stop me from being a sweaty Betty!!
  • here are some pictures of things i mentioned.. hope you enjoy...

    10 things a girl should have

    10 things a girl/woman should have in her beauty collection....


    10. hair ties and grips these are good for in you purse or bag and at home so that you can tie up/back your hair if needed...:)


    9.a statement handbag.....fill it with your essential needs when your going out.....there's so many to chose from....







    8.vaseline......good for chapped lips, cuts or rashes, ruined cuticles etc. get them in tubs or pots...fits in purses and pockets...




    7.sunglassesgreat for hot sunny days and for the car just to put on if your eyes are too sore from the sun..:)






    6.statement piece of jewellery... one of these in your collection will give any piece of  clothing some real definition....you will find them in any clothing or jewellery shop and look good on the majority of women..






     5.your favourite heels.....dress these up and down with a simple outfit....as long as their comfortable; their a keeper...:)




    4.a delicious perfume.....every girl loves smelling nice so 
    invest or ask for a perfume for an occasion... pick out one and test it before buying it in case you don't like it..my personal favourite is GHOST...yummy








    3. concealer... if you haven't a lot of discolouration on your face e.g. you only suffer from the occasional pimple and dark under eyes then I recommend just investing on a concealer...if you want a heavy coverage concealer I suggest purchasing a mousse concealer.It will last much longer and gives more coverage then a liquid concealer will.




    2. L.B.D (little black dress).... every girl needs a little black dress in their closet. not only is it so easy to style, you can wear it anywhere. wear it with red, white, purple, pink, yellow etc and it will look extravagant...








    1.red lipstick...  you will look amazing in your L.B.D and red heels and statement bag with a fierce pair of red puckers... you will find an amazing red lipstick in any drugstore that sells makeup and it goes well with everyone....AMAZING






    that's all from DressingUpInBeauty for now but get ready for some more etravagant looks,tutorials and tips and tricks from me... xxx!!
