Look: New Years Party


Hi guys!
Christmas is over, and with New Years here, I thought it was appropriate to do a New Years Party/meal out look!


My family and I are going to Birmingham for a fancy meal and to watch the fireworks! (I also recommend the London shows - they're fab!)

So, I guess this is sort of a 'Get ready with me' post, but not too detailed! :D

My Hair Routine

 Hi Guys!
My hair has a mind of its own, I'm sure of it! So, I thought I should share with you what I do, to attempt to keep it in control! 
In it's natural state, my hair is frizzy, overly curly, dry & oily (like what?!) and any state of weather, other than sun - my hair hates it.

Once I am finished with my hair (I hope), it's not frizzy, it's wavy and smooth - but whenever rain appears, I'm doomed. 
Some photos before/without any work, others with. Hope you can tell the difference!

My Night Time Routine

Skin therapy face wash
Lancome cleansing water
Hiya Guys!
Along with a Morning Routine, comes a Night Routine :) .... So here it is!



After a stressful day of work, I'll go upstairs and spend some time browsing through social media and generally wasting my life :) ... but then eventually I'll do 'homework' and perhaps some chores.  Later in the evening, I will head to the shower :D

My Weekday Makeup Routine

Hi guys,
So my weekday routine with makeup seems to take a bit longer and is a bit more extensive than Toni's, probably because I leave the house later and I like to make the effort in the week as much as possible!

I usually get up at 6:45, although that drags on until 7, and makeup is one of the last things I do, after getting showered, dressed and brushing my teeth. 

Travels 2015: Belgium (September)

Hi guys,
So since Toni and I both love to travel, I thought I'd start a mini ongoing series about places we visit. 

Review: The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Body Butter

Hi Guys!

Price - Was £14 Now £7 (*hint* -> Go get it!! )

How to: clean your makeup brushes

Hi Guys,
Along with doing makeup, comes the chore of washing your makeup brushes. I can't stress enough, how important it is to regularly wash your makeup brushes. Think about it - Everyday you use the same selection of brushes. This means everyday you are wiping the grime of yesterday, back onto your face :) Not nice!

So.... Lets get those brushes clean!

Review: Miss Sporty Lash the Miaoww Eyeliner


Hi Guys!
I've decided to do another review for you!
This time I will be talking about the liquid eyeliner from Miss Sporty. 
I have never used products from Miss Sporty, so this was a new experience for me. 

The reason behind this purchase was purely because I needed a new Liner! 
I have been using this product for around 2 weeks now, so have got a general feel of  the product.


   Price - £2.99


Review: Collections contour kit

Hi guys!
It's high time I do a review on here, so I thought I would go ahead and write about collections contour kit.
This is my first contour kit, and I went into Boots, set to buy one - and came out with this. I have been using it for a while now, perhaps 2 weeks.  

Price - £3.99 

My YSL Belle D'Opium Tale

Hi guys,
This post is a little different to some of the others you will see, and yes, has been over dramatised for effect. This is the tragic, emotional and sometimes brilliant tale of my favourite perfume and possibly the best scent in the whole world: Belle D'Opium by Yves Saint Laurent.

About me (Amber)

Hey guys,
So I know that I had previously done an about me post, but honestly in this last year I have changed a wee bit, so I thought I'd do a nice little updated one!

Lush Imperialis Moisturiser Review


Hi guys,
So recently, I purchased the Lush Imperialis Facial Moisturiser  for £12.75. Here's my review!


How to -donut bun-

Hi guys!
In my -occasion looks- http://that-little-beauty-blog.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/occasion-looks.html post I mentioned a donut bun.

I find these great as they are quick, easy and can be worn elegant or kinda messy. 

The donut itself can be bought really cheap from any drugstore (boots, superdrug) and in most shops with a make-up counter (primark, new look, peacocks) if you really want you can use a sock instead but I will get to that at the end!



Occasion looks

Hi guys!
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. My families birthdays and Christmas happened!!! Today I want to talk about occasion looks - enjoy! 




Make-up can be used in many different ways and can be used to achieve many different looks. I am for the more natural looks. There are so many but in this post I want to share with you 1 look for each selected event.


1) Formal dinner party

2) Meeting a friend for a chat

3) Stay at home (only going out for shopping, a walk...)



Beginners makeup bag ideas!

Hi guys,

This post is going to be what i think a beginner/newcomer to makeup should own and
have in their makeup. Amber and I are both 14 and we are both into makeup and I don't see a problem with that. I don't think there should be an age limit to when you can start wearing makeup,
as long as your parents are happy with it.

DIY lipscrub

Hey guys!

I want to do a DIY lip scrub which I mentioned in my -beginners make-up bag- post

This is very cheap, effective and you should have all the ingredients in your kitchen.
