Help Me Out :)

Hey everyone,

 

I really love my blog, and I appreciate the support from everyone from when I first started my blog up to now, but the one thing that I'm finding quite hard is coming up with ideas to blog about. I want to carry on with my blog, but because I'm still fairly new to blogging, I really need help with ideas for my blog. I know I've said this before but in the past I haven't really had ideas from people. I know you're all out there viewing my blog, and I would appreciate it so much if you helped me out, otherwise I really don't know what will happen with my blog. I love it so much, and I enjoy blogging a lot, but without ideas, I can't blog. Even if you think your idea is daft, comment it down below and I will make sure that I read all of your comments, that's a promise.

 

Thanks for reading,

Favourite Things!

Hey everyone!

 

Seeing as it's halfway through the month, I thought that I would share my favourite things at the moment, like in my June favourites post a couple of weeks ago. I forgot to mention at the end of my last post that I hoped you enjoyed my daily blogging, and that if you wanted me to daily blog more often, let me know as it's something that I would enjoy doing :)

Day 10 - Fave Necklaces!

Hey everyone!

 

Seeing as I've done a post on my favourite fashion, and favourite shoes, I thought that I would do another similar post, but with my favourite jewellery at the moment. However, it seems that my favourite jewellery is just necklaces at the moment ;) :

 

Ditsy Rose Necklace Set

£6.50

Miss Selfridge

 

Gold & Pink Stone Necklace

£5.99

New Look

 

 

Blue Stone Embellished Rope Necklace

 £9.99
New Look

 

 

I also just want to thank you all for the fact that you are even reading this. When I started my blog nearly 2 months ago, I didn't really think that anyone would read any of my posts, but to have over 300 page views, even though it doesn't sound like many, to me that's amazing! Over 300 people have seen my blog, and I want to thank you all for that. (Sorry if that sounds really cheesy :P)

Day 9 - What's On My Spotify Playlist?

Hey everyone!

 

Today's post is going to be the highlights/ my favourite things on my Spotify playlist at the moment. As my Spotify playlist is sooo long, I wouldn't want to bore you guys with a massive list of songs. This means that I'll show you guys a smaller version that I'm loving at the moment.

Day 7 - Loom Bands!

Hey everyone,

 

Recently, everyone's been going crazy for Loom Bands, so I thought that I would do a post showing you how to make one of the basic Loom Bands, and if this gets a good response, maybe showing you how to make some harder bands in the future.

 

Today, I'm going to show you how to make a Single Chain bracelet. I used black and white, but obviously you can change the colours and mix it up if you like.

 

You will need:

 

 

 

*One Rainbow Loom

*One Hook

*13 Black Bands

*12 White Bands

*An 'S' or 'C' Clip

 

Step 1

 

 

With the red arrow facing away from you, attach a black band to the middle pin and stretch it to the right.

 

Step 2

 

 

Then attach a white band to the pin that the black band finished on and stretch it to left.

 

Step 3

 

 

Continue this pattern until you reach the end of the loom.

 

Step 4

 

 

Turn the loom around and pull the white band back so that it is only looped around one pin. This makes it look like the black band is attached to three pins.

 

Step 5

 

 

Loop the bands (this is hard to explain so if you need some extra help with the looping, I'll link a good help video). Then attach an 'S' or 'C' clip.

 

Step 6

 

 

Remove the bands from the loom and join the ends together with the 'S' or 'C' clip.

Day 6 - Batiste!

Hey everyone,

 

Today's blog is a review of Batiste's dry shampoo. I'm sorry that it won't be very long, but as I'm later uploading today, I don't want to keep you guys waiting for an upload.

 

 

I know that there are a lot of different brands of dry shampoo, but my personal favourite is Batiste. They have so many different types of dry shampoo (this isn't even all of them!) but my favourite has to be the Cherry scented one: it smells gorgeous! I find that Batiste's dry shampoo really helps my hair, and gives it a lot more volume, and of course, the scents are a bonus as well!

Day 4 - TFIOS Review

Hey everyone,

 

Sorry that this post is a little late, I didn't have time to upload it yesterday, but don't worry, Day 5 will be coming up shortly after this. I'd thought that I would blog about The Fault In Our Stars. I think I mentioned that I was going to see it in a previous blog post, or that it was being released soon.
http://bethlovespugs.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06/more-drawing-little-lush-review.html

Anyways, I went to see it the other week and it was absolutely amazing!! I read the book and loved it, but the film was so good! I don't normally watch films that have a book as well, but honestly, I am so glad that I went to see this!

 

If you haven't read the book, it's basically about a girl called Hazel who has cancer. She goes to a support group for kids with cancer, and hates it, until she bumps (literally) into a guy called Augustus Waters. The story then follows their friendship, and relationship. I don't want to give too much away to those of you who haven't read it, but if you haven't read it yet, go and read it! Even if you don't think it's your type of book (I didn't) still give it a try, you'll be surprised.

 

To end off this post, here are some quotes from TFIOS:

Day 3 - June Favourites!

Hey everyone!

 

As today is the 1st of July, I thought that I would do my June favourites. I haven't done a favourites post before, but I've seen other bloggers' posts on their monthly favourites, and I thought I'd give it a try. I just quickly want to say, I know that when I take my own pictures, they aren't very good quality, and that's because I don't have a proper camera. If I'm still blogging in the future, I'll think about buying a proper camera, but whilst I'm still fairly new to blogging, I think I'll carry on like this. I don't want to go and get all the equipment to then find that I'm not blogging in a years time.

 

Skincare

 

 

This month, I have been using my Pore Cleansing Pads from Superdrug a lot. They basically target spots and blackheads, which is great for me, as I get quite a few spots on my forehead from time to time, and I find that normal face wipes etc. don't really work for this. (I'm sorry, I can't find the price for these anywhere!)

 

I have also been using my Avon Invisible Blemish Corrector (£4). You use it by dabbing it onto any spots that you have, and rubbing it in a little. I've found that this really works for my skin, and has cleared up spots quite quickly. Also, you can apply it under or over makeup!

 

Makeup

 

 

I have been using my Color Trend Final Touch Pressed Powder (£4.25) from Avon quite a lot recently. When it's hot, my skin tends to get a bit oily and shiny, and this is the perfect thing to stop it. You use the applicator (the pink circle) to apply it, and it gives your skin a really smooth, unblemished look.

 

Body Spray

 

 

This is my favourite body spray at the moment: it's scent is gorgeous! (raspberry leaves and vanilla, mixed with jasmine, freesia and mugnet) It's also from Avon (I've really been loving Avon this month!) and is £8.

 

Have you tried any of these products before?
