Skin Care

Skin care is a very talked about subject. Skin is basically pot luck. You can be blessed with normal, not acned, perfectly pH ballanced skin or be doomed(like me) with oily/combination skin with regular breakouts. My skin isnt that bad really but I dont help it by squeezing the dreaded pimples. My T-zone gets esspecially oily. But fear not, their is a skin care product out their somewhere for you! Several brands I have tried include: Simple, Oy, Clarins, Benefit and my current one Clinique. I am using the 3-step-system for combination/oily skin. That includes Liquid facial soap, Clarifying lotion and Dramaticaly differnt moisturising gel. I couldnt recomend it more highly. I have to go but honestly its worth the £20 XOX

How to create a facebook profile picture

Everyone wants to look their best in their facebook profile pic. As a new comer to the scene of facebooking I wasnt sure what look to go for so I did some experementing. There are a few looks which are most popular accross the social nerworking site; Standing infront of a mirror with your phone, A picture using photobooth, a picture of you in your early years and of course a pic when your on holiday with your bronzed skin. My personal veiw is that you want a picture that reflects your personality. For example: my current one is of me doing a rather cheeky pose which completely sums me up! A valuble tip is give it five days and if it isnt past 7 likes then find a new one! But if you are insecure about yourself then a great choice is a pic of a completly random thing! Remember; facebook is about keeping in touch with your friends who love and respect you for who you are not for your highly airbrushed profile pic. XOX

The benefit of Benefit

Sometimes when i go into a beauty store looking for a new mascara or tinted moisturiser I am overwhelmed with the enourmous selection of brands! If I am in a good mood I will take the time to look around and make a valued decision. But if I am in a mood where the last thing I want is to be searching through all the brands for beauty products then I will just walk away. I have done this so many times that I decided to choose a brand and stick with it. Now, I have broken this promise a few times when there is a specific product I have wanted to try, but on the whole I just stick to one. I have tried so many differeny brands including; Clinique, Maybelline, L'oreal Paris, and sometimes I borrow my mums Chanel make up. But my current make up brand is the highly recomended Benefit. For starters I love the branding and packaging and the product names they come up with are just pure genius! In their vast range of make up there is sure to be something you havent tried yet. My everyday make up is Benefit(but to be honest I dont wear make up everyday, only if I am going out or have a HUGE BREAKOUT because it causes my skin to become really oily and who wants greasy looking skin!) but sometime I may throw on a bit of Clinique or whatver is in my make up bag. My make up motto is Natural. I hate the caked up looked on young teenagers. The make up look i go for is just enhancing what you have allready. Now, I never ever ever wear eye shadow. I really dont like the look of it on younger people. Its fine if you put on a bit of colour for a party (personally I dont) but my friends do and they always look lovely.The benefit of Benefit is a natural complection and a brand that is suitible for any kind of skin and face.

My first blog

I am a 13 year old girl in her crucial element. I have all the baggage that comes with being a teenager;stress, acne, longing to grow up, GCSE's.....etc. I decided to create a blog that fellow teenagers can relate to. I will be posting about fashion and beauty to photography and having crazy friends! XOX
