Best Of 2015| Beauty

A round up of my favourite beauty products and discoveries of 2015, i thought i would have more products but these are the stand out ones of the year, a mixture of Drugstore and Mac!
Along with Freedom Makeup i would say that Mac has been a standout brand this year for me as a lot of their products have become staples for me!

|Freedom Contour Stick
Probably my favourite discovery of 2015 as i used to be daunted by cream contour but it is actually easier than powder contouring!

|Mac Soft & Gentle Highlighter
I don't know how i lived without this product!! The Most beautiful highlight on all skin tones.

|Loreal Superliner Eyeliner
This is the easiest eyeliner i have ever used, the liner is so easy to control, perfect for beginners as i used to be terrible at applying an eyeliner pen!

|Wet 'N' Wild Lipsticks
Wet 'N' Wild lipsticks are the best drugstore lipsticks i have ever tried.

|LA Girl Pro Concealer
The best concealer i have used this year as it is versatile for under eyes of blemishes. I even used a darker colour for contouring and it worked fine.


|The Balm 'Hot Mama' Blush
My first The Balm purchase ever! This is a shimmery coral/pink blush that is extremely pigmented and you only need to use a tiny amount of product so it lasts for ages and barely look like it been used!

|Loreal True Match Foundation 
Out of the few foundations i have tried this is the one that i wanted to mention, having 

|Freedom Brow Powder Duo
Freedom a brand that launched this year has released so many amazing products!

|Mac False Lash Extreme Black mascara
I got two samples of this from Mac and i haven't used anything since! It is amazing at adding length and volume, i will be 100% purchasing the full size when they run out!

OOTD| In The Style

My first OOTD in a while and it is technically on OOTN but they are similar enough! I love this dress and this is the first time i have had chance to wear it, the cross detailing is everywhere at the minute. I have been wearing these knee high boots constantly recently they are so comfortable.

Review| Fitzwillam Hotel Dublin

The Fitzwilliam Dublin is a five star hotel located facing St Stephens Green which is an amazing location as you are pretty central to everything and Grafton Street is literally 20 seconds away! As soon as i arrived i was taken a back by how grand it is inside and the staff were so helpful and pleasant.





The room was lovely and spacious, i particularly liked the mirror! The bed was so comfy i didn't want to get up! 
I would definitely stay in this hotel again as it is in an excellent location, the staff were really helpful and it is 100% worth the money!

Gift Guide| Under £10

Gift guides are all over blogs at the minute and i like reading them so i thought i would make my own! I found some gifts 


|Soap & Glory Bright & Bubbly |£10
You can't go wrong with a Soap & Glory gift set, This one contains Hand Food, The Righteous Butter, Scrub Of Your Life and Clean On Me.


I know this does look a little pricey as it is only 15ml but as the full size is expensive, it is a great little stocking filler! This can be used in the bath, hair or nails so a great all round product!



|Seventeen Mini Lip Gloss set | £6
This stocking filler contains 6 mini lip glosses ranging from a red to a nude.

Matalan has a range of bobble and beanie hats in support of Alder Hay Children's hospital in which all the proceeds go to. They are available in 6 colours, I myself have the pink bobble hat and i love it!

|Sanctuary 'Little Bag Of Joy' | £10
