RAVE REVIEW! Technic brilliant touch highlighter and blemish corrector.

Technic brilliant touch highlighter and blemish corrector has very quickly become one of my must have products. As I was searching through my make up stash to find something to make me look more alive after a 'no sleep whatsoever kinda night' (ok, well I did have half an hour sleep...) I came across this magnificent product. I will say, I didn't hold out much hope for this product at first against the extremely dark circles under my eyes, but to my surprise it worked a treat!

As you can see this product is quite pink, which again didn't fill me with hope when I looked at it, but this product seems to reflect light and makes your face glow. Looking at this product, I have noticed it is slightly similar to Benefits High Beam, although this is definitely more of a concealer formula. I much prefer using this as an under eye concealer rather than on spots, I feel it draws attention to any blemishes. I do set this with a powder otherwise I have found on the occasional day that it will crease under my eye area but that doesn't change my love for this product at all. The only downfall to this product is that there's only one shade. Being relatively pale this works on my complexion, obviously this unfortunately will not suit darker skin tones.

Sorry for the rubbish photo's, new set up soon!

It has a brush applicator and is super easy to use and blend. The packaging is pretty simple, the only problem is the packaging rubs off after a while but at such a cheap price, I can't complain!

But all in all this is one fab product that is only £2.99! I am aware that the shop 'body care' sells some technic products, but I'm not sure how widely available those shops are, but I have found an online shop that sells it!

Buy it here!

You can't have a better tomorrow, if you don't stop thinking about yesterday...

This is going to be an unusal post as far as my blog goes. Basically 'You can't have a better tomorrow, if you don't stop thinking about yesterday' is one of my recent favourite quotes and I thought I'd share it and tell you all why.
The first reason as to why I like this quote-  It makes sense. It's not too complex, it doesn't have a really deep meaning, it does what it say on the tin basically.
The second reason- I am quite a pessamist and I can't help it, it's just the way I'm made and the way I think, therefore this is the perfect quote for me.
Third reason- I think many more of us should try and live by this quote.

Recently I hit a rough patch in my life, being the summer holidays I didn't have too much to take my mind of anything that happened around me. During the holidays one of my family members ended up having quite major surgery, my boyfriend broke up with me and my exam results weren't as I hoped.

So basically I had a few weeks of serious rubbishness, me and my now ex split on our 3 month anniversary a week before my dad had surgery. And then a week after my dad's operation, came my exam results. Obviously I was gutted, when me and my ex split, it was a complete surprise, he just didn't feel the same way that I did, but we've decided that we can still be friends, Luckily my dad's operation went ok and he was out of hospital a week later. ( bearing in mind he'd already been there for about 5 weeks) but being the pessamist I am, nothing was looking very positive. When I picked up my exam results I knew what was coming- I had completely messed up my last year ( year 12) I didn't revise for my A/S exams, I barely turned up for some of my lessons and I couldn't concentrate when I did. I knew I'd messed up but still I hoped that it wouldn't be too bad.

But after an emotional couple of weeks, one day browsing on the internet i stumbled across this quote and it is really inspiring. Everytime I'm feeling down or sad about something, I remember that quote and try and carry on the rest of my day as normal. It definitely true- why live in the past? When you have the whole future to look forward to.
