LVL Lash Lift: 5 Reasons Why It's My Favourite!


Eyelashes & Brows are for me, the most important features of the face!
But for today, I will be talking all things lashes, and why I love the LVL Last Lift so much!

What is this treatment? 
Well, let me tell you, its one of the BEST lash treatments around at the moment! It straightens your natural lashes from the root to create a longer and lifted lash. They last 6-8 weeks and results are immediate!

Here are 5 reasons why I love this treatment:

1. No mascara
Mascara is a massive problem for me, as it really irritates my eyes! Fortunately, I naturally have long, thick lashes, so having my lashes lifted means I do not need mascara!
I use the Lash & Brow Conditioning Serum daily to help give my lashes that extra oomph! You can however use mascara on top of this treatment if you wanted to!

2. Maintenance free
Unlike eyelash extensions which need infills every 2/3weeks - don't get me wrong, they look amazing also - LVL is completely and 100% maintenance. They last 6-8 weeks until they will need doing again.

3. Reduces time in the mornings
Having LVL reduces your time getting ready in the mornings massively! Who doesn't love a couple of extra minutes in bed!?

4. Perfect for holidays!
I don't know about anyone else, but wearing a full face of makeup round the pool or on the beach is the last thing I want to be worrying about whilst on holiday! With LVL it means you can relax with the thought of panda free eyes!

5. No makeup days
We all have those days where you just want a day or two off slapping makeup on! 
This is another reason why LVL is so good, as it will still look like you have mascara on, when in fact you don't! 


Not only do I have this treatment done myself, I also perform the treatment. I highly recommend this treatment, it is suitable for any lash type as it nourishes and encourages them to grow longer and thicker!
I have posted a few photos at the end of this post for you all to see the dramatic difference!

What I Bought In Florida!


Following up from my Florida post, I thought I'd do another post on what I bought whilst I was out there - because spending 2 weeks in America means buying clothes and theme park merchandise, right? 

Park Merchandise


From the day we booked this trip, I had already decided that one thing I HAD to buy were Minnie Mouse ears.
Every Disney park sold them in all different shapes and sizes. Not only did they sell Minnie and Mickey ears/bows, they sold most of the other characters too.
But for me, it had to be Minnie Mouse, and I wore them to every Disney park!


Now I know half of you will think this is super cute - me being one - and the other half of you will be thinking this is super lame - sorry not sorry.
Yes, we bought matching t-shirts. 

Jamie also bought lots of stuff from Harry Potter World in Universal, which included, Harry Potters Wand, a keyring with his name on, a t-shirt, and a tanker which the Butter Beer came in. 


I did also buy some gifts for family and friends whilst at the parks which included, a Minion t-shirt for my little cousin, a Mickey Mouse spoon rest for the kitchen for my best friend, and a Harry Potter mug for my boss.

Shopping Purchases

I won't lie, I didn't actually get as much as I thought I would when we went shopping. I think it is mainly because the exchange rate wasn't great at all.
Here's what I bought..

Adidas Ultraboosts
Literally the comfiest trainers I have ever worn!

American Eagle Khaki Shirt
I have been on the hunt for a khaki shirt for ages now, so when I saw this I was a very happy girl! 

Converse Top

Levi Vest
I saw a lady wearing this when we were on the bus one day, and wanted it! I was so excited when I found it in the outlets.

Hard Rock Hoody

Okay, so looking back now I really didn't buy much at all did I? 
What sort of girl am I?

We did spend most of our money on food, which is so worth it by the way. Our food over here in the UK has nothing on the US, they win hands down! 


Anyway, thats it for the Florida posts - I know, how upsetting!

If you've been to America, and did some shopping, where was your favourite place to shop?
I'd love to know, so leave some comments below.

Disney, Harry Potter & Lots of Roller Coasters!


As I sit here on this cold, wet and miserable Sunday afternoon, I can't tell you how much I would rather be back in sunny America!
Holiday blues have well and truly kicked in, and I couldn't be more upset that I'm home.

If any of you follow my Instagram, you will know that the boyfriend and I have been in Florida - Orlando for the past 2 weeks, having the time of our life!

I won't bore you with a day to day routine, because thats a lot to talk about, so I will upload some of the snaps we took.

Seaworld

Before I carry on with all the park photos, I feel like I should mention the food. Oh my gosh, if you love food and you haven't been to America, you are missing out massively!
Personally, breakfast was my favourite. Pancakes/crepes, eggs, hash brown, sausage, bacon, what's not like?  


Lets also talk about Denny's Oreo Milkshake, WOW!! The best milkshake I have ever consumed in my life. I wouldn't of even thought about getting this if my best friend didn't mention it to me. 

Outbacks Bloomin' Onion.
Just amazing! It's so unhealthy, but so good. It's basically a large onion, cut to resemble a flower, battered and then deep fried. This is an appetiser and its massive!

Portion sizes in America are huge, a slice of pizza is a quarter of a ginormus whole pizza.

When I went to America 4 years ago, I found a love for Corndogs, I just couldn't get enough of them. So when I returned this year to see that they had doubled in size, I was more than excited!


Right, lets get back to the parks! I won't bombard you with every single photo, so i'll just post a few from each park.

Animal Kingdom


Universal Islands of Adventure

Typhoon Lagoon
As this was a water park, we didn't actually take any photos, sorry :(

Epcot

Busch Gardens

Universal Studios

Magic Kingdom

The castle by day and by night! Heart eyed emoji? Yes I think so!
The title photo right at the top, is also Magic Kingdom during the fireworks.


Hollywood Studios

We did also go to another waterpark called Aquatica, but we didn't take the camera with us.
We did a lot of shopping too, you have to when your in America right?

All in all, we both had the most amazing time here and didn't want to ever come home, but like all good things, they have to come an end. 

Until next time America..


Have any of you been to Orlando? 
Where did you stay and what was your favourite park?
I would love know, so leave comments below.

Greece


With Summer pretty much over and Autumn upon us, I sit here dreaming back to my holiday. 
From sunshine, sea, sand and unlimited cocktails, to cups of tea, duvets and jumpers, its safe to say that the colder days here are very depressing!
So here I am, under my duvet, writing to you guys to try and warm you all up with some of our holidays snaps.

I have only ever been to Greece once, and that was way back to when I was a lot younger, so I don't really remember too much about the country.

My boyfriend and I decided on Zakynthos, which at first we were slightly anxious about as neither of us had been before, but we were very happy with our choice.
It is such a pretty island and very hot!
I have never been to a country where the sea water was as warm and as clear as this was. I was amazed.




The beaches here are known for Loggerhead Turtles, which we were lucky enough to see a few in the sea when we went out on a pedalo and on a boat trip.
The locals are very protective of the turtles, meaning they close the beach from 7pm-7am, to avoid any hatching turtles getting injured, as there are hundreds of nests along the beach front.








We went on a trip to see a shipwreck to a place called 'Smugglers Cove'. This was honestly such an amazing/stunning place! I have never seen sea water as blue as this before! Here are a few snaps:







I'm not sure what I was expecting when we came here, but we absolutely loved it. 
The weather was scorching, and the country is just beautiful!
We now want to visit the rest of the Greek Islands.

I'll leave you here with a few more photos.
I hope you enjoyed having a nosy into our holiday!
I would love to know where you all visited this year, so leave comments below.

Speak soon,
