FOTN 20.6.2011

I love my bathroom light because it's like daylight, it's so bright, I tend to do my make up by this light and mirror because you can see EVERYTHING. I was heading out for a few hours with friends last night and seeing someone a little special (haha) and had over an hour to get ready, so I spent my time doing my make up. I wasn't very dressed up, just leggings, black tube skirt, pink top, cream cardigan and the lovely floral scarf my parents brought me back from the holiday in Croatia. When I was taking the photos, I've realised, I have a bad habit of pulling faces, but my brother does the same thing, maybe it's our DNA.

FOTD 20.06.2011

Since I had all my hair cut off I've felt completely un-photogenic, so FOTD with be far and few between if I'm honest. I happened to have time today to do my make up, even though it is simple as all I was doing was popping into town and I also had an interview, but didn't want to be too done up. My camera was handy and I happened to get one decent shot (I took about twelve photos!)

So here's the thing...

I really do love the blogging world, and I would like to properly kick start this one of mine, but at times I find posting a chore, just because I don't know what to write about. I'm quite a heartfelt person, and as I want to keep my blog about light hearted things, such as make up, what I may have bought in recent weeks, things I may be lusting after, or specific trends etc. that I am loving.

After a lot of thought, I've decided to have two blogs, this one 'Bethan Alice's  Beautique', but I also want another one, which will have maybe a daily post about my day, something I may feel strongly about, and also person life problems which will all face, may it be boys, dieting, bullies, friendships, relationships with friends, family and the opposite or same sex. I am in the process of making a name for said blog. I also need to get computing skills back up to scratch! As once upon a time I used to be a total whizz at the stuff, now I'm a complete novice!


Things to look forward to from this blog:

• Skin care routine 
• Favourite summer nail polishes
• Favourite blushes 
• Make up routine
• Summer fashion post of some sort

I hope everyone out there and their dad's had a lovely father's day. My dad spent his day pottering in the garden, and being fed with a scrummy sunday dinner and a lovely piece of chocolate cake, and now is relaxing with one of his action films with my brother!
B.x
