Carmex Lip Balm Review

Hey there!  So this week has been kind of crazy.  Basically I hit 100 followers on Bloglovin, which is absolutely amazing!  Thank you everyone who has followed me, I know it may seem insignificant.  However I am extremely grateful and it does mean a lot as I have only just started doing this kind of thing for the last month.  Anyway moving on to the main topic of this blog...I thought I would write a review on 'Carmex'. I have the balm pot, which I believe is better than the lip balm as it contains more carmex for my carmex-thirsty lips!  What I really love about it is that once you apply it to your lips, you instantly experience the tingly feeling of it working its magic.  I usually use it before I go to bed.  Meaning if I have cracked or unhealthy feeling lips; in the morning they will be the complete opposite.

My lip balms always run out so quickly because I love using them all the time!  Even if I do not need to.  Please comment below any types of lip balm brands that you love and which you want to share with the world (aka me). 
 
Love, Georgie x

Soap and Glory Butter

 
Hey there!  I absolutely adore Soap and Glory. Their products are fabulous because not only are they brilliant, they also smell heavenly!  The Soap and Glory butter yourself is amazing.  It is wonderful to just moisturize into your skin after you have had a shower, as it not only makes your skin brighter and healthier looking.  It has the sweetest smell that you just want to cover your face with to get another whiff!  I definitely recommend it, as it is perfect if you want healthy and gorgeous smelling skin. 
 
 
 
Due to my passion towards the Soap and Glory body butter, shown above I decided to get the larger tub version. However, they are not completely similar due to the fact the body butter is much more 'cream like' whereas the righteous butter version has a different, stronger smell and is softer.  The righteous butter tub is like a body lotion that you would use in the shower.  Although both are as good as each other and I love refreshing my skin by using the body butter on my face and the righteous butter on my legs to make them silky smooth.
 
 
Today I would like to know what soap and glory products you love to use and why?
Love,
Georgie x

Liebster Award

Hello!  So very exciting news,  Corin Pye (corinpye95.blogspot.com) kindly nominated me for the Liebster Award.  I am very new to this all, so I did not really understand what it incorporated but after Corin's clear explanation on her blog I fully understand.  I can't wait to get started!

So eleven random facts about me:
  • I am 5ft 1, which is very small for a sixteen year old! (I think I inherited it from my parents who are also petite)
  • I love skittles, especially the sourest ones!
  • I have a large German Shepherd dog called Sharik (which means ball in Russian, don't ask!)
  • I have only had three proper relationships
  • I am best friends with eight girls!
  • I would love to be a photojournalist when I am older
  • I think I'm too funny sometimes and I start cracking up at my own jokes when everyone else has blank faces.  Probably illustrating that the joke I just said wasn't particularly funny at all
  • I have awful fashion sense (not that I wear horrible clothes, I just don't know what type of clothes suit me/my figure)
  • I haven't got my ears pierced
  • I absolutely hate spiders
  • My birthday is in 16 days!
Now I have to answer a variety of questions that Corin has given me:

1.  How do you spend your spare time?
It depends on what mood I am in.  For example if I have had a stressful or tiring day I will usually watch catch up TV or see if anything good is on.  However, if I am alert and active I will go on my exercise bike.  I also love reading before I go to bed because I dream about the story during the night!

2. Favourite brand of make-up?
Dior

3.  Mac or Windows?
Mac 100%

4.  Name 3 people on BlogSpot who you look up to
  • Zoella

5.  Favourite Film
Mean Girls all the way! It never gets old.

6. Best apps on your phone
  • High School Story (look at previous blog)
  • Facebook
  • Covet Fashion
7.  Curly hair or straight?
Straight.  My hair is naturally curly and it is always messy!  I would love to have hair that is always under control.

8.  Hair or make-up as a necessity?
For school no, everyone has seen me on my bad days before.  However if I am going anywhere else but school then yes!  It makes me more confident as a person.

9.  What's your aspiration in life?
To have a successfully marriage and three beautiful children

10.  Describe yourself in a sentence
My craziness may be weird but it will make you laugh no matter what.

11.  Heels or flats?
Hm...I don't know.  I usually go for flats but heels will definitely be flattening for my height!  (Haha see what I did there!)
