I've moved!

Hello everybody!

I hope you're all doing well. I just thought I'd let you know that I've moved.

This blog was getting so crazy and messy that I just didn't enjoy posting on here any more.

My new blog is:


Please come check it out! I'm looking forward for your comments and all the upcoming stuff I've got planned for that blog.

I'm currently doing ShayCarl's 5 week fitness challenge and I'm being very open with what I'm doing and what I'm eating per day so if you're nosey you'd enjoy reading that!

Come and keep me company over there please!

Meet Maisie: This or That Beauty Tag!

Makeup:

Blush or Bronzer? 
Bronzer

Lip gloss or Lipstick? 
lipstick, only because I hate it when my hair gets stuck in my lip gloss, but I prefer how lip gloss looks!

Eye Liner or Mascara? 
Definitely eye liner, but I hate how it looks when I wear it without mascara cos my eyelashes are so light!

Foundation or Concealer? 
foundation

Neutral or Colour Eye Shadow? 
Neutral, you will rarely ever see me wear colours on my eyes!

Pressed or Loose Eye Shadows? 
pressed

Brushes or Sponges? 
brushes

Nails:

OPI or China Glaze?
I've never actually used any China Glaze nail polish before, shock horror! I've also only ever used four OPI nail varnishes, and they're the mini versions, ha! So I'm not sure

Long or Short?
long, but mine don't grow and they're so brittle :(

Acrylic or Natural?
I love naturally nice, healthy, long nails, however I'm so into my nail art and stuff that I will always wear acrylic nails because my nails won't grow without breaking off straight away!

Brights or Darks?
hmm, probably darks, but I do love my new nude colour 'Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint in Lychee!' it's gorgeous

Flower or no Flower?
depends on the design, I quite like creating my own flowers out of acrylic

Body: 

Perfume or Body Spray?
I love getting nice perfumes, but I'm so fussy and I'm not so fussy with body sprays. So I guess my answer is body spray!

Lotion or Body Butter?
definitely body butter. I love all body butters - literally - and I rarely ever find a nice lotion that doesn't make me feel greasy and oily for a while after...y'know?

Body Wash or Soap? 
Body wash, every time.

Lush or The Body Shop?
This is really hard because I like them for different things...
I like Lush for things like bath bombs and shower gel (especially the seasonal collection: snow fairy shower gel), but not really anything else. I like The Body Shop for things for my face, like make up remover, moisturiser etc.

Fashion

Jeans or Sweat Pants?
Jeans! I literally live in jeans when I'm going out, then I wear pyjamas all day if I'm staying in, I'm so lazy..

Long Sleeve or Short?
I like wearing short sleeve tops, with long sleeved jumpers and cardigans over the top, although I've started to buy a hell of a lot of long sleeve tops recently. I don't know, maybe I'm changing?

Dresses or Skirts?
Oh gosh this really isn't me...I guess dresses, because skirts never look good with anything on me! sobsob

Stripes or Plaid?
yuckyuckyuck next question!

Flip flops or Sandals?
Okay, I have a really weird thing about my toes. My whole family has masssssssive big toes, and I'm really paranoid about them so I don't really wear either. If I really had to pick I'd choose flip flops cos you can just whack them on and go

Scarves or Hats?
I go through phases of liking both so I'm not sure...probably scarves, no hats, scarves, scats?

Studs or Dangly Earrings?
Studs. I love large pearl studs in my first lobe piercings then smaller pearls in my second lobe piercings.

Necklaces or Bracelets?
Necklaces, because I can wear them for ages without taking them off or playing with them. Bracelets because they're prettier and mean more to me.

Heels or Flats?
flats.

Hair

Curly or Straight?
Curly...but I love my hair wavy at the moment

Bun or Ponytail?
bun

Bobby Pins or Butterfly Clips?
Bobby pins

Hair Spray or Gel?
Hair Spray, but with a pump rather than just a spray...if you know what I mean.

Long or Short?
longlonglong! I had my hair cut a while back, they cut off 4 inches of split ends and crap! I haven't used any heat on it since except in the shower and occasionally using my hair dryer in the hope of it growing quickly. It hasn't. Any tips?!

Colour?
Mine is currently a light auburn/gingeryish colour. I LOVE it so no hating cos it won't be acknowledged!

Side Sweep Bangs/Fringe or Full Bangs/Fringe?
Side sweep! Why oh why did I cut mine into a full fringe?! I can't do anything with my hair now!

Up or Down?
I prefer the look of mine down, but I wear it up almost all the time to keep it out my face, and because I have to for work!

Random

Rain or Shine?
rain, because it makes my hair look so nice!

Summer or Winter?
Winter, because I hate sun cream but if I don't wear factor 50 I will get sun burned so badly.

Fall or Spring?
Fall/Autumn

Chocolate or Vanilla?
Vanilla, although everyone would say I prefer chocolate.



Hey Guys! Sorry I've been away so long, stress stress stress! I thought you could do with getting to know me better so I hope you found this interesting. Love you all lots, Maisie xxx

As many of you may know I've recently done a Soap & Glory haul.

This is a picture of my parcel full of all
my new treats I bought from Soap & Glory!
I haven't started writing reviews yet as I've had other things on my mind and I didn't want to give you just a brief review, I wanted to give you a good review.

So within the next hour or so you'll have access to a new review of some Soap & Glory products that I've been using long enough for me to review. I have stuck to my words in a previous post that I started writing them to give you my "first impression" review so I hope you enjoy reading them!


All the products have been paid for with my own money, this post is not sponsored.

Personal: Meet Trouble

This is my cute little bunny Trouble.
This is the first picture ever taken of him!

I didn't actually name Trouble, my brother and his wife "suggested" it, but everyone just carried on naming him it so I guess I had to follow along so I didn't confuse him. It turned out though that Trouble definitely is trouble. 
These were my blueberries that he actually took off of me and ate himself. 
I was just about to start taking some photos of my Soap and Glory products so I can start reviewing them when SOMEONE jumped up and interrupted.

Soap & Glory products may not be tested on animals, but it looks like an animal was about to test them in these photos. 





He usually acts as though he's camera shy...not here though!

No but seriously guys, I promise to catch up with soap&glory reviews later on today! 

...The photos however may not be very good unless I can be bothered to go out and get some new stuff for the background. They've become stained with orange and green from Trouble eating carrots and lettuce. He's also torn it a bit and I've made some notes on it by accident ...oops!

I don't understand why there are so many chess blogs :(

Views & Opinions please!

I have one more favour to ask of you guys!

I have recently done a tutorial on how to do "cupcake nails"

I would really appreciate any feedback about it - did you understand it? did you like the design? would you like more tutorials on things like this?

IF you would like a new tutorial I'm thinking about doing a vintage floral pattern that's inspired by a video on youtube by cutepolish


I haven't perfected it yet, but I would love to show you how to do it once I've got a bit better at the design!

New Stuff!

Hi guys!
Just keeping you up to date a bit...
I haven't done any (except one) reviews of my Soap & Glory stuff yet for a few reasons:

1)The majority of the stuff I actually had just ordered and hadn't tried out yet

2) The stuff I did have I didn't want to review before I could write an introductory post to all of my soap & glory stuff with a picture of all of it together. (I'm a bit OCD about stuff like that...)

3) I'm so behind with coursework I didn't want to start doing other things before I do my coursework!

What I will be doing now I've received my parcel full of soap & glory stuff is start reviewing the stuff I've been using for a while now so I can actually do a proper review of it. I'll probably be posting one a day, although it may start tomorrow.

For the stuff I haven't had before so I can't yet review I'll be starting to write posts about each of them without actually publishing them yet. By doing this I'll be able to tell you what I think of them RIGHT NOW and then review what I think of them after using them for a few weeks! 

So that's everything you need to know right now. This was a bit of a boring post for today but I just thought you'd like to know what was going on so you can keep coming back for more soap&glory product reviews!

Here's a picture of my parcel - EXCITING STUFF!



Ciao - Maisie
