20th Birthday!





My birthday was last week on the 19th July, and I turned 20! *crying face* I am sad about no longer being a teenager, but I'm sure being in your 20's is cool, I just feel so old now!




My boyfriend stayed round my house on the night before my birthday, then when we woke up on my birthday and me, my boyfriend and my mum went for brunch in a nice little local cafe
















Then we came home and relaxed in the sun, we put up a swimming pool outside my house and we sat in that for a while to cool down because it was sooo hot!!






My grandma then came round and I opened some presents from my family and blew out the candles on my cake ♥































I got some lovely presents from my family :)





Then we had a bbq, we thought we should make the most of the hot weather and a bbq is always a good choice when its hot



























Then for the rest of the day it was just very chilled and relaxed!








On the sunday just gone we decided to go to brighton for the day to celebrate my birthday more, it was me, my mum, my boyfriend and my brother. We drove there in the morning and spent the day relazing in the sun, going on some rides, chilling on the beach, and drinking the tastiest milkshake ever!! It was alot of fun, and I vlogged it if you would like to have a watch of that :)














































































I had a lovely birthday spending time with my family, and I am hoping being 20 will be alot of fun :)



I hope you have an amazing day ♥


Love Megan xx

Drugstore Everyday Summer Makeup!





So Summer is here!
Even though the weather in England hasn't exactly been summer weather

But I thought I would do a Summer makeup look, this is an everyday look and its quite natural because when the weather is hot in Summer I cant stand wearing loads of makeup because I just get too hot and the makeup just melts off and its pointless so I don't really like wearing full face makeup

Spring beauty essentials!



Hello lovelies!!
So today I am going to be showing you some beauty products that are my essentials for spring time!
Hope you enjoy and let me know in the comments if you have tried these products, or what your spring beauty essentials are!
I use the word Spring alot in this post! ha ha!












So the first beauty product that is my spring essential, is this makeup palette by w7! I have talked about these eyeshadow palettes so many times now, you are probably tired of hearing about them! But I love them. This palette is the "In the nude" palette and it is perfect for spring because it has some really pretty pink tone colours which I wear all the time throughout spring because when I think of spring i think of fresh, pretty pinks, so this palette is perfect to create the everyday spring look! (just realised how many times i said Spring. Spring, Spring, Spring!)









My next Spring essential are these blushes. I couldn't pick one so i just decided to put both in because I like them both and think they are both pretty pink spring blushes! 

The blusher on the left is the "Borjois healthy mix" blusher in the shade 41.
This is a peach tone blusher, they are both very peachy but this one is slightly more orangy with a slight gold undertone. It's not very pigmented though so you have to swirl your brush in it for quite a while to get some colour on it, but it is a very pretty colour!

The blusher on the right is the MUA blusher in the shade lolly. This colour is also quite a peachy blusher however it has a slightly more pink undertone than the other blusher. This blusher is VERY pigmented so you honesty only need to touch it the tiniest a bit and you will get alot on the brush!












Next up is lipsticks! I think Spring is the time to ditch the dark bold lipstick colours (sad face) and start reaching for the more nudes and pinks. I haven't really tried any high end lipsticks before but some of my favourite drugstore lipsticks I have tried are the Rimmel Kate moss ones! I love them! 
The one in the picture above is in the colour 05, its a perfect pink colour for Spring, it is quite a bright pink, which is a bit daring for me but not too bright its just a bit brighter than my normal nude colours. 









I then have a couple of other Rimmel Kate moss lippies that I also love, these are more nude/neutral colours. The one on the left is in the shade 19 which is slightly more pink than the one on the right. The one on the right is in the shade 08, this colour is one that I wear all year round, I absolutely love it!! 08 is more of a nude colour and doesn't really have pink undertones its more of a brown undertone colour. 
I absolutely love these lipsticks and for only £5-6 you cant go wrong!











Next up is more lip products. On the left is the born lippy lip balm by body shop, in the flavour strawberry ( which can I just say smells and tastes delicious, it doesn't last long on my lips because I just lick it off ha ha) I added this into my spring essentials just because I feel lip balm is an essential all year round and this one has such a sweet fruity scent that it is perfect for spring/summer. And when you apply it it makes your lips glossy and gives them a slight pink tint which is so pretty and perfect for a natural everyday spring look!

The product on the right is a lip butter by collection. its in the shade 3 vintage rose. This is such a pretty pinky peach colour, its slightly more sheer than lipsticks but more pigmented than a lip balm and as well as giving you a pretty colour it softens and moisturises your lips at the same time so its perfect really!











The final makeup items that I included were nail varnishes! I think my nail colours go through a huge change from winter to spring, I absolutely love my dark colours, my red, my purples, my blacks, I just love a good dark nail colour, but I don't feel that that is really right for spring so I hide away all of them colours and bring out the more bright pastel colours! These are some of the ones I'm loving! I looove the Barry M nail varnishes so much, they have such a huuge variety of colours to choose from, I've just picked a few that I love for spring!

 The colour on the left is a really pretty pastel blue, it is in the shade 306 blueberry. The colour in the middle is from the gelly hi shine range and this one is a pretty pastel peach colour, i love this colour so much, its in the shade papaya. Then finally the colour on the right is a gorgeous pastel green/turquoise minty colour, this one is in the shade 304 mint green.

All of these shades I love and are all perfect for spring time! I would definitely recommend giving these a try!









 Then I didn't want to just add all Barry M nail varnishes because I also love these ones so much! The colour on the left is a new purchase and its by models own, its such a beautiful pastel lilac colour, its in the shade lilac dream! honestly this colour is so pretty, I'm in love with it.
Then the colour on the right is by MUA these nail varnishes are only £1 and they have some really pretty colours so if you are on a lower budget I would definitely recommend these! This one is in the color strawberry crush, and this is a beautiful pastel pink! 






So that is everything in my spring beauty essentials!
I really hoped you enjoyed this post!
Let me know if any of these are your essentials and if not what is and if you would like to try any of these products!


I hope you have an amazing day!
Thankyou so much for reading!

Hello Spring...

So spring officially began in the UK on the 20th I think!
I am quite sad to see Winter go, because this may sound weird to most people but Winter is my absolute FAVOURITE season!!
I just love the atmosphere when it is around Christmas time, and I love being able to get cozy with a nice hot chocolate or cup of tea, snuggle under a blanket while it is cold, dark and rainy outside.

But I am going to try to enjoy Spring and Summer more this year, I am more excited for it than I usually am. Last year was very very difficult for me and Summer/Spring last year was probably the worse one of my life, so I want to make this Spring and Summer the best ever!

I just got back from my Easter holiday to Selsey with my boyfriend and my family, so that was a great start to Spring! I am going to be doing a blog post showing you some pictures and stuff from my holiday soon, so stay tuned for that :)

Anyway I just thought I would write this post to say "HELLO SPRING" and "GOODBYE WINTER"

And I am excited to see what this Spring brings :)

Thankyou for reading! And I hope you had a great Easter!
Please follow my blog if you would like to see more from me:)

I hope you have an amazing day!!
