Last minute things for holiday!


HOLIDAY 


So I'm off to lanzarote tomorrow and I wanted to hit the shops in case of some last minute beauty's! That's exactly what I found, check out some of the things I grabbed and where there from for some inspiration for your holiday! 

I bagged these shorts in H&M for a mere £14.99! Bargain or what!? They are from the Coachella collection that they have in at the moment, I love them and they're just long enough to cover the side where your thighs meet your bum, the bit we all hate! 

I found this little gem in New Look. A white Lacey playsuit. It has the cutest little Pom pom's on the bottom which really makes it look summery! The straps are adjustable and it's not too fitted so that you can still breath! This was £25 from a concession called Parisian ( something) which I thought was a lot but I'm sure it will be worth it.


I'm absolutely loving the off the shoulder tops at the moment and I found one in Primark for £4! Result! I fancied it in white  and black and that price you can have both without breaking the bank. It's super versatile as you can wear it as a normal belly top or slide of the shoulder for a more relaxed look.



Next up is my gorgeous necklace from wait for it.... Primark! It's got four necklaces on one clasp and looks so gorgeous on. This was £4 and well worth every penny, that's like a pound a necklace! Get in! 



I also picked up some gorgeous earrings in Primark as apparently all you need this season is some big chandelier earrings! These were an absolute steal at £2.50 and I will certainly be rocking these all the way to the beach bar!🌴



Also, I've gone for white nails! Although I am hoping they won't fade too much in the sun! 😩will let you know how I get on 


 Happy holidays all! What have you got for your holiday?

 Let me know ! 

Love Fran xx

Bargain bikini!



πŸ’žMy bargain bikini!!πŸ’ž

I don't know about you but I LOVE the triangle bikinis but I am not prepared to pay the price tag that comes with them. £60 is just ridiuclous if you ask me. Even if I had all the money in the world I still don't think I would pay that much for a bikini. (Sorry!) 

That's when I came across this bad boy. It comes in 4 Gorgeous colours, yellow,baby blue, teal and dark pink at just £3.99 and free postage! They're even from England and the postage takes only 2 days! 

I chose the pink one as I think pink looks great with a tan and my holiday is only round the corner. 

I was very sceptical about this bikini because of the price but it is amazing! The quality is very good for £3.99! It's not the thickest material but it isn't see through which is the main thing! It's very comfortable on the skin( not rough).
The clasp at the back is very easy to do and is quite strong so there is no chance of it flinging off. I've had this problem many a timeπŸ˜‚


Overall I cannot fault this bikini for the price and I like the fact I can even mix and match the top with different bottoms. I ordered a Medium and I'm usually an 8-10. I can't  wait to get this on! Get me on holiday already!! ✨❤️

So come on girls grab yours here for just £3.99!!! :http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=191593829640

Revolution baked blusher

Revolution baked blusher !

Morning girls! 😊
Happy Wednesday!

I'm too excited to share with you my next best kept secret; Makeup Revolutions baked blusher.

Makeup Revolution Baked Blush 
This merged multi colour blusher is highly pigmented for a natural soft effect. The colour is easily buildable with a hint of shimmer to enhance the cheekbones. I feel that this product is not too shimmery and not too powdery, the balance is perfect. Apply this product to the cheekbones with a sturdy blush brush or sweep across the apples of your cheeks. This blush reminds me of the MAC mineralise skin finish blush but they are about 10% more expensive.

These blushes retail at £2.50 you can get these from Superdrug.  Click HERE for the link.


This blush comes in 6 different colours: 
1)Hard day: pale brown and off white in the pan, best for cool tones skin, rosey.
2)Make Love Instead: peachy in colour with orange tones running through, warm undertones, best for warm skin tones. (my fav!)
3)Loved the Best: deep pink in pan with warm tones and brown undertones.
4)All I Think: rose / pink coloured in the pan with cool undertones.
5)One for Playing: washed out lilac with pink undertones. 
6)Bang Bang: pale pink in pan, looks Barbie pink on skin with a few deeper pink veins running through, most pigmented.

Lasting power:
This blush is quite light so you do have to reapply every couple of hours.

Tips:
-apply a base blusher which is more Matt so that you have something to build on, making it last longer.
-if you have dry skin, try not to apply this where you have dry patches, this will exentuate these and make them look drier.
-wear this instead of foundation on a chill day for a glow.

 Overall these are a purse friendly product with a gorgeous shimmer. Have you tried these yet? Let me know what you think below!  ❤️

Wedding hair!

With weddings in the air and Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan on everyone's lips I thought I would provide you with a few hair tips & tricks for the big day! 



Checklist!

-Review different bridal packages and costs.

-Review look books and photos of different styles. Up and down. Make a mood board of things you love and things you hate. Therefore your stylist can steer clear of the things you don't like and can give you what you do like.

-Trail run your hairstyle. This is a MUST. You can have your heart set on something and then when you see it on yourself you can realise it doesn't suit your face or you don't like your ears out!

-Photograph your hairstyle from the front, back and sides to make sure your happy with it.

-Confirm your final hairstyle

-Make an appointment for the big day, well in advance!

-If you change your mind, you'll need another consultation to avoid stress.

-Shampoo your hair the night before your trial run and do not flat iron or use styling products so that your hair is fresh and ready to work with.

-Wear a button down shirt to your appointment. The last thing you want to be doing is messing around trying not to touch your hair after it's been done.

Think about your neckline
If your dress has intricate detail on the back, wearing your hair down is the ultimate no no! If your dress has a high neck, you'll loose the shape of your dress so an updo will look fabulous. One shouldered dresses look great with a scooped side style. Maybe loose curls pulled to the opposite shoulder and pinned in place is the one for you. 

Colour
Colour helps improve the condition of your hair and it will look shinier and healthy. Hair colourants contain a lot of health boosting ingredients that will improve shine and condition. Alternatively, a clear gloss will help keep your hair super shiny.

Extentions
Extensions are a great way to enhance what you already have! There are many types on the market at the moment including semi permanent and permanent methods. For example if you are planning on keeping your extentions in after the big day I would suggest a weave or micro rings. If not then clips are fine to create that look on the day!

Keep it simple
Most people think that because it's a big event you need the most extravagant hair in the world when actually I think less is more. Bridesmaids hair should be relaxed and not too 'done'. For young bridesmaids, plaits and curls are perfect!

Wearing a hat?
Think about how you will wear your hat, whether it be to the side or central this will determine how you wear your hair. Some hats will look better with an updo and some better with a side down style.
Keeping your outfit simple and wearing a bold contrasting hat will be really nice and you're sure to make a statement.

How to recreat Michelle's gorgeous style
Michelle rocked the beach wave look with a bouffant at the back and a middle part. This look is easily recreated and I will tell you just how to do it! 

Want to create large textured curls or tousled waves for a
Glamorous effect? The Waving wand from cloud nine is your saviour. It's quite an investment at £99.95 but it will garantee you gorgeous waves. I've sneaked around and found it on Amazon for £83.55! You can get that HERE!






 A cheaper alternative is the BaByliss 2286U Waving Wand. Create effortless, natural waves with ease using the Waving Wand from BaByliss. Specially designed with a oval shaped plate to help you get perfect curls everytime! 

For the bouffant! 
Backcombing is key for this style. Whether they used a bump it or not there has defo got to be some backcombing involved to keep that bad boy up! My favourite Backcombing brushes are the old setting brushes, bristle. These can be hard to get hold of but this bad boy will save you! 

This Paul Mitchell mighty brush promises big hair! With a contoured handle for picking up segments and nylon and boar bristles to pick up your hair so that you can back-comb the perfect bouffant.

TIP: small sections make a bigger boof! 

TIP 2: make sure you turn your grips round so that the bumpy side is facing the head. This makes them firmer.
