FOTD & OOTD ♡

 
 
I thought I'd show you all my FOTD and OOTD, nothing special just went out for a meal with the family :) .. Some of you may be surprised that I didn't leave my hair natural and decided to straighten it (due to a slight knotty hair issue, I'm sure you curly haired girls out there feel my pain!) .. Before I start to ramble on with the post! 

Face
Foundation- Bare Minerals Medium Beige (N20)
Concealer- Mac Pro Longwear NC30
Translucent Powder- Rimmel Stay Matte
Inner Corner Highlight- Sleek Contour Pallete (Light) Highlight Shade
Bronzer- NYC Smooth Skin Bronzer in Sunny 
Blush- ELF Tickled Pink
Eyeliner- Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal in Nude
Mascara- Maybelline Falsies and The Rocket (Waterproof) in the lower lashline 
Lipstick- Mac Please Me 

This was a lot more make up than I normally would wear but as I'd napped before hand I felt as thought needed to make myself look a bit more awake even though I didn't feel it !


Outfit
Navy Jacket- Zara
Grey Jumper- Newlook
Light Blue Jeggings- Newlook
Necklace- Forever21 (I'm in love with statement necklaces if you can't already tell from my Instagram!Also I couldn't find the link to the exact same necklace but I did find the beautiful pink version)
Boots- Wedged Boots from Newlook (sorry I didn't remember to include a pic!) 


Sorry for the crappy quality of pics, I'm having to use my phone until I sort out my non working camera :( ... Hope you're all having a lovely week !

Fashion & Skincare Haul ♡

Hiyaa Beautifuls! 




Today I was feeling in the need of a pick me up and as I was in town I decided to so some damage. I'm using the excuse that I had a voucher and my student card to get discounts, that makes it allowed right?




I guess ill begin with the skin are items. Seeing the new L'oreal Skin Perfection 15 Second Cleansing Oil I was intrigued as I was on the look out for an alternative to my usual make up wipes as these were just not cutting it for me anymore. 
The Simple Oil Balancing Moisturiser was on offer and as I'm almost out of my Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisturiser I thought I'd pick this up. Cocoa butter is something I adore the scent of! Although it's a body moisturiser I do intend to use this at night time to try clear my skin of those pesky marks! 




Unfortunately H&M didn't have the red version of this in stock so I decided to go with the cream to help tame my hair (more like hide it on a bad hair day) and keep my ears nice and toasty! 



I've been looking for a coat similar to this for a good few months and I happened to come across this in New Look and I really could not resist! 


This jacket I think is and absolute bargain from Zara as it was in the sale for £16.99,   need I say more? 




I've had my eye on this for a while and seeing as H&M had 20% off I grabbed it whilst I could. Seeing as the days are getting colder I thought this would be ideal and I could easily dress it up with a statement necklace and some skinnies!



This jumper I'm not so sure about if I'm honest, I was looking for a jumper in the exact same colour but a bit more fluffy, but I guess this will do for now unless I find something better anytime soon. 


If you would like me to do a bit more of an in depth review of any of the skin are items or OOTD's with the clothing I brought just pop me a comment :)

Hope you're all okay! 

Nicky xoxo
