It begins alright

Intro.



Here is a little about me for whoever stubbles across this page. My name is Hannah. I'm 21 and a student of Business in Ireland. Sounds super exciting huh ? I have a passion for music, fashion and make-up. So why not start a blogging about those particular things. I now join the other 3 million people doing this.

I will try be helpful and review products and other stuff and try to entertain myself and hopefully you too :).
I am currently a month into my summer holidays and need a hobby before I go crazy. 

Hair.

As you see from my photo my current hair colour is a very dark/black brown. This happens to suit my colouring but at the same time I want to be bold and go a little punkier (don't think that is even a work but heck !) Any suggestions would be very much welcomed .



However platinum blonde is the current trend. I have wanted to dye my hair blonde for ages but don't know if I will ever be brave enough for platinum . It brings me back to 1950s and Marilyn Monroe. This was a beautiful era in terms of style and women and sadly I don't think we will ever be able to recreate that beauty today. Fashion is trying to from the hair to the make up to the clothing. This era is coming back in with a bang. I might get patches of blonde around to test first. My hair however is already in terrible condition from constantly being straightened

Boujois 123 Perfect
 I bought this foundation because like always when I tried it on my cheek in the chemist it matched my skin. When I got home this foundation turned into a disaster. The 123 perfect relates to the fact that it is meant to have 3 correcting pigments (yellow pigment to cover dark circles, mauve pigment which corrects dull complexion and green pigments for anti redness). I suffer from a case of Extreme blushing (OK maybeee that isn't the medical term). So much as mention I look red and my face will go up like a beetroot ! So I was delighted when I saw it had green pigment as I had bought Gosh green concealer which cost a pretty penny. However this is a very disappointing foundation. It is very thick and leaves streaks on my face and even though I bought the lightest colour there, under normal light it makes my face look orange.

I am wearing in the picture above and I must say it doesn't look that bad on a screen. But I had to powder my face to within an inch of its life to get rid of the orange. So if anyone is considering buying this and sees this post. I wouldn't if I were you :(

(sorry for the terrible picture)


Think that is enough for one day and it even managed to get rid of some boredom. Could get used to this.
