Revision Advice 2016! | BeautyBlogJemsx

Hey Guys,

So I ain't no advice expert, but I'm going into my final year of high school  (year 11) and that means GCSE'S  (If you don't know what they are they are exams that 15-16 year old takes). I've watched alot of Back to school advice videos on YouTube and advice for the exam season. So I am going to be telling you some that I've learnt from these videos.

Don't Leave Revision to the last minute 

I kinda off did this for my mocks exams and it doesnt help. I tend to stress out more and I didn't really revise anything, however if you start revising months before, you can take your time revising and learn stuff. I did this for my end of year mocks and got 3Bs 5Cs so chuffed!

Take Breaks find what's is the best way of revision

When revising you ain't going to learn everything in one sitting, take a 5 minute or 10 minute break. Have a cup of your favourite drink or a biscuit. Also get away from your work station and relax.

Finnd what's is the best way of revising for you.

Revision can be a stressful thing, you may not know how you can revise the most efficiently. I tend to revise my best by creating mind maps filled with bright colours that stand out all meaning a different thing. Also everyone is different. You may find mind maps helps you where as your friend may find flash cards the most efficient. 

Thank you for reading this brief post.

Favourite Youtuber Books 2016 | BeautyBlogJemsx

Hey Guys,

Being a massive youtube fan, I have bought some of the books that some youtubers had published. Today's blog post is about my favourite Youtubers books that I enjoyed reading and I would recommend. I did actually feature some of these books is one of my very first blog post.

When these books where released I was so excited to start reading. All of these books are engaging and I've nearly finished reading Girl Online : On Tour, all ready for when Zoe's new book is released. I would defiantly recommend these books to anyone.

Thank you for Reading,

What to Pack for A Mini Break! |BeautyBlogJemsx

Hi Guys,

Summer is here and a lot of people are jetting of across the country or across the globe. This summer, my family and I are taking a mini cruise to the North of Spain and I am super excited ( as you are reading this I just arrived in Spain!). As it's a mini break and a chance of not a lot of wifi :-( I am going to be taking a range of fun games to play and watching catch up programmes and doing  alot of reading. And relaxing obviously! In today's blog post I am going to be telling you about some things to take on a mini break!


Small Games
You'd probably wouldn't take massive games like Twister or Monopoly, you could take small games such as Four In a Row or Battleships. I got my games from Tiger but I'm not sure if the still have them. By playing games you aren't going to be bored and time does fly when you're having fun!


Headphones
For my holiday I have to travel 4 hours on coach to get to the ferry and I may sleep, or I may just listen to my music and watch the world go past me! I am actually going to watch tv or listen to music on the coach trip up to my destination!

Books

I love a good book to read whilst on holiday. It's so relaxing and peaceful.

 I prefer to read shorter books with an intriguing story line where I would be instantly hook. Reading when it's silence is the best and a less chance of me getting distracted .

Thank you reading

The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The NightTime Review | BeautyBlogJemsx

I wanted to get back into reading for a long time and I was a big reader when I was younger. I had The Curious Incident of The Dog in the Nighttime for a while now and I had never really had the time to sit down and read. The author is Mark Haddon who is an amazing author! The Book is about a teenage boy called Christopher, who lives with his father after his mother died and set in London. Christopher has Asperger's Syndrome. As you may of guess, Christopher neighbors dog was killed and Christopher play's detective and wants to find out who killed the dog. The book is addicting and I read in a week (Quite quick for someone who doesn't have time to read). I love this book so much that I recommend it to my friend and she loves it too, and my sister is currently reading it and says she is enjoying it! If you have the chance to read this book then defiantly have read and you'll be hooked! 

Thank You for Reading,

BeautyBlogJemsx

Review: Clean & Clear Blackhead Cleansing Scrub | BeautyBlogJemsx

Hey guys, as a teenager that gets a lot of pores and a lot of blackheads, I want them gone. When I was in my local supermarket, I saw this on a offer for £2! So I defiantly picked it up. What stood out to me the most about this product is that it claims that it reduces blackheads after one use. That night I tested it out with my normal skin care products.

I found the product works really well and I did notice fewer blackheads instantly. It felt very tightning and it felt like it does work. On the face it does feel very nice and I do like it.

I would recommend to use this 2/3 times a week as it is quite drying.

Thank you for reading, I'm uploading on Wednesday at 5pm!

P.O.Y Strawberries! | BeautyBlogJemsx

Strawberries! Strawberries are one of my favourite ever fruits. They're so delicious and juicy. I also love them blended in a think smoothie or covered in melted chocolate- delicious! I'm lucky to have a P.O.Y (Pick Your Own) near to where I live and there is a lot of gorgeous home grown strawberries and also there is a lot of another fruit available to pick. It was a lot of fun to go around the farm and pick fruit. The farm smells delicious and the strawberries are so big! And you can pick how much you want! 

So check out one near you!

Testing Poundland Makeup! | BeautyBlogJems

Hey Guys!

So I have seen youtubers trying out Poundland (Dollar Store?)makeup and I wanted to try some myself. So I picked up a mascara, pressed powder and a foundation. So I have been trying these out for the past week and I am going to be sharing my thoughts with you guys today. 

When I first bought these make up there was a lot of different make up on the stand such as eyeliners, concealers, nail polish, foundations, bronzers, and I can tell you that there wasn't a huge shade range, there was probably around 4 different shades. Lucky for me they still had the light shades in stock!

So Poundland's make up brand is called 'Make Up Gallery' and does come with a range of products.

Gorgeous Fabulous Foundation
For £1 this foundation is not bad. It does have a light coverage however it is not build able and it does start to cake on your face. The colour I've got is the lightest and it is quite orange tone leaving the feeling that throughout the day you are going to be turning orange. I think that the packaging for all of the products is nice and sleek. The foundation is a tube and does get quite messy too.

Smoothly Does It Powder

When I first opened this product and swirled my brush around in it powder flew out everywhere. So for this product I recommend dabbing our brush into the pan instead of swirling. Th powder does do what it says, its smooths out my complexion and giving the smooth and soft feeling. This powder doesn't add a substantial amount of coverage but it does look nice on face and not too over done look. 

Never Ending Story Mascara

My first opinions on this mascara is that it is very thick and it defiantly is. Also the brush is HUGE but dealable. This mascara doesn't add a lot of colour to our lashes but it does gives a lot length to your lashes for £1. If you are after a very natural look to your lashes then this is perfect. It does come in more colours if you are after more colour, or maybe I picked up the wrong shade. Again it is not bad.

Step by step guide: French Braids | beautyblogjems

Hey guys,

Sorry for the lack of uploads of blog posts, I have been really busy lately with school stuff and also had no motivation to create posts and take photos. BUT I AM BACK today with a new blog post, this week I am going to be showing you easy hairstyles that are done on medium to long hair. I am having a bit of an issue with photo uploads recently so if they are not there I apologize.  (Also thanks to my sister for letting me do the style in her hair)

Here's the step by step guide to get the perfect braids:

1. Part the hair centrally into 2 (aiming for two equal amounts of hair)
2. Get hold of a piece of hair from the top of one side. With that hair separate it into 3.
3. Start by doing ONE single plait 
4. For the next plaits keep adding in bits of hair 
5. Continue until you end up with no more hair to add in. 
6. Finish of the braid with a simple plait
7. Tie with a small band at the end
8. Repeat this process on the other side.

This probably isn't the best guide but it gives you a ruff idea. Any questions please comment below

Here's the finished hairstyle:

My Make Up Brushes Collection 2016♡

Hey Guys! I was struggling to come up with an idea for a blog post so I came up with my Make up Brushes Collection 2016. I have a range of Brushes such as superdrug,primark,real techniques and eBay ones. I use the majority of the Brushes every day so I am going to show you the ones I love.

EBay Brushes
I ordered these Brushes for like £5 and it's comes with 10 Brushes. However they did take like 2-3weeks to arrive though. These Brushes are the same as the powder brush is bought from primark and I love all the Brushes. They are very soft asunder dense and applies the perfect amount of product. I loooooovvvvvveeeeeee them! Definitely would reccommend.

Real Techniques brushes are LIFE! They are cheap and affordable, easy to use and so colourful. The bristles are not to soft nor too firm and I LOVE THEM! Again would definitely would recommend to anyone who is starting out with make up and wants some good brushes to practice on!

                                              Thanks for reading. See you next week

Favourite Makeup Pieces

Hey Guys!!!

A big passion of mine is makeup, I have love the joy of being creative with makeup and messing around with different colours and brands. In this week's blog post I am going to show you what I have been loving wearing lately and a little review on each product.

Face

MUA Concealer
I believe I did mention this in my last makeup post but I am just going to re-mention it simply because I LOVE it! It is so light and fresh and looks so nice as an under eye coverage or to cover any blemishes. 

Miss Sporty BB Cream

I don't really wear this much during the school days because I don't like a lot of face make up during school, but I love to wear it on the weekends and the holidays. Its very light and as a light coverage perfect if you are looking for a natural coverage. It evens out my skin an cancels out my redness.

Collection Pressed Powder

I love this powder, however I do prefer the Rimmel one, but for £1.99 ITS SO GOOD. It holds all of my make up in place and I have also used it as a setting for my eye base. So good and light.

 Eyes

Collection Supersized Mascara
Again, I have mentioned this in my last favourites but I am featuring it again because I LOVE IT. With curled eyelashes it looks so nice, it spread out my lashes and has great volume. With non curled lashes is still looks natural and gorgeous.

Make Up Revolution Brow Palette

I have gradually started to fill in brows but not over the top. With my Real Techniques Eyebrow Brush I dab in all three powders and with small strokes fill in my brows. There is also a setting gel (I think) and that is good however it's very wet and I don't use it much

Thank You for watching,

Come back next Monday at 6pm for a new post!
