What's in my makeup bag:Holiday Edition

So as you know I have just gotten back from a lovely holiday in Cyprus! I thought why not do a holiday edition of whats in my makeup bag and what I took with me?! I only brought one thing in duty free which is good for me because our flight was boarding as soon as we got through security so I only managed to eat and buy something! So lets get in to what's in my makeup bag:)




Face:The makeup that I took on holiday that I used for my face was not used as much as I thought I would need it because I caught a tan very quickly on my face! The majority of the face products that I took with me are normally used all year round.I took two BB creams which were the 17 BB cream and Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream both of these BB creams have SPF in them as well which is a must have! The brushes I took to apply the BB creams were---- Beauty Blender  and A Mac Foundation Brush 190.I also took my under eye concealer to hide the dark circles under my eyes which is the Maybelline The Eraser Eye and I applied this with my beauty blender.When I have applied all the BB creams and the concealer I then apply my Maybelline Dream Matte Powder in the shade 02 Rose Ivory I use this to set my makeup and to stop my face from getting oily when I get to warm... I apply this with my Real Techniques Buffing Brush

Eyes:The products that I used for my eyes were my Mac Palette and My mascara was the Lancome  Hypnose- Doll Eyes Effect.The two eye shadows that I used were the two colours at the top of the palette which were a dark brown colour and then a light champagne colour(Im so sorry I can't remember the names of them and can't seem to find them in my makeup draw or on the internet), I would use the light champagne colour first and I would apply this on my eye lid and would put the amount that I think worked for me, I then added the dark brown colour in to the crease of my eye lid and this mixed in with the light champagne colour and then I would just blend it out which added a lovely light colour but also a hint of dark in it.The bushes I would use were my Sigma Mrs Bunny Travel Kit to apply the light champagne colour I would use the brush 
E55 - Eye Shading  and then use the brush E40-Tapered Blending to apply the brown shade in the crease of my eye. The Mascara that I took was just one of my old ones but I managed to pick up one from Duty Free which I feel in love with and it apply's perfectly and doesn't clump I even think that it better then the benefit they're real mascara.The mascara is from Lancome and it was a limited edition and honestly I really recommend it.

My Trip to Cyprus☀

Hello Im back from Cyprus unfortunately I wish I was back in the sun and tanning but no im in my room in England writing my post up while it raining! I want to apologies for my lack of blog posts recently but there should be more coming from me very soon!


So me and my family and my brothers girlfriend booked a holiday ages ago to go Cyprus this year as last year as we didn't have a holiday due to me being in hospital and our friends child being in hospital as well! So we travelled down to Manchester on the 20th and stopped over night as our flight to Cyprus was early hours of the morning I do have a holiday haul which will be uploaded soon on what I brought over there and what I brought in duty free in the airport and we stopped for 10 days in Cyprus which was the 21st-31st and honestly I wish we stopped longer.We stopped at the most beautiful hotel which was called 'Sunrise Beach Hotel' In Protoas.All the staff in the hotel were lovely you had the people that worked in the pool bar the people that worked on reception the managers of different restaurants which were in the hotel also the bar manager that we had a drink with every night he even offered me a job but then I told him I was only 15 and he said come back next year and you will have a job so looks like I will be living in Cyprus for the 6 weeks! Also the entertainers were lovely and we got friendly with them which we are know friends on Facebook!

The rooms were lovely in the hotel and really clean and the beds were even comfy?! I mean thats what you want when you are on holiday! nothing like my own bed though! I had to share a room with my brother Ben and his girlfriend Anke I got along with Anke in the room but not Ben put it this way the room was way to messy for my liking! Our hotel room got cleaned everyday and the maids were lovely also.

Our holiday was mainly spent by the pool then on the night going out for something to eat and drinks after! We were allecated our sun beds when we got there and got to pick where we wanted them and honestly we picked the best place for the sun and the view we also had a lovely couple next to us.We were mainly in the pool playing with a volley ball that we brought and we spent many days hitting that around the pool while my brother got angry at me as I wasn't hitting it up I was hitting it down... so..... We also played a real volley ball game with people around the pool with the entertainers where a good looking russian thought he could flirt with me..... he was good looking though^_^.We also went in the sea alot as well but that got busier as the week went on but it was fun when we were in there when we had the rubber ring. We became friends with everyone and we even became friends with people who live in the same village as us that only live down the road and it seems like we have known them for ages.

MR LIZARD came to see us every day 
On the night we went to the restaurant which was right in the hotel with a view of the sea and the sun setting it was lovely you had an excuse to get dressed up also as you had to dress smart to be able to get in.On the last night we went all out we even had a bottle of Moet which I had a little drink of but stuck with my freshly squeezed orange juice which they did fresh every morning in the pool bar and also made some at the bar for the night we also went for Frozen Yogurt at a place called Froo Yoo it was lovely this was on the strip which was just outside the hotel which had different bars and places to eat and little shops!

Honestly it was the best holiday I have ever been on and the staff at the hotel could not do enough for you and we will be going back next year and we are booking next week so that we can go at the same time and maybe next time I  might not be coming back on the plane to England I might be stopping in Cyprus if they offer me that job which I will adore.The hotel was beautiful and the staff again were lovely and I recommend the Sunrise Beach Hotel if you ever take a trip to Cyprus


I would love to know what your favourite place to go on holiday is? Also there will be more holiday related posts off me coming very soon as I have all the time in the world know so more posts regularly!

Thank you for reading
