OOTD

hey guys, so i went shopping with my cousin the other day and i really wanted to do an ootd for it, i haven't got around to it until now. we went out when it was snowing so we had to wrap a lot!
i dont like to use pictures of myself for ootd's and i also forgot to take more than one.
tell me if you prefer it with using pictures or pictures off the internet though.
i wore this skirt which is from urban outfitters, it was reduced from £35.00 down to £10.00 so id hurry if you want to get it!


this was the jump i wore out, sorry it isnt very good quality, it isnt on the website and i just found this from the day i bought it. this was from h&m and was £10. 

                                

i then wore this denim jacket over my jumper which i got from a charity shop for £1!
                                


                                 

i then finished off my outfit with tights, converse and a kardashian bag.


i hope you liked this post, comment and give me feedback, love gyps x x

Anyone Who has Upcoming Exams!






to anyone who has upcoming exams, please take the time to read this new post!
so i have a few exams coming up and i thought it would be a good idea to find websites i can revise from. i found the best one i think i have ever found. its called get revising http://getrevising.co.uk/ and i honestly think its amazing. you can type in any subject and topic, and get noted for it, make revision cards, make mindmaps and the best thing about it is you can make a revision timetable.

                     
this is the revision timetable and you can choose a different colour for each exam which i think is great. you just type in the details about the exam and you can alter it in case you need more time to revise for one subject then it turns it into this table for you.

                         

this is what the homepage looks like for anyone who wasnt sure. also im sorry its not like my usual post i just wanted to help any of you people that needed and i hope this did help. comment if there is any ive missed out, i love you all gyps x x

How I Do My Hair

hey guys, so this post is about how i do my hair, i dont want it to sound like im bragging or anything so im sorry if it comes across that way.
i get tons of people ask me how i do my hair, whenever i meet someone new they ask if its natural or how i do it etc and its simple and easy.
the way to get it to look curly/wavy but not frizzy is easy if you have the right products, you don't even need any time!
i have a shower every day and depending on how my hair has gone, i either wash it everyday or everyday or other day. i use the body shop ice blue shampoo which you can get from body shop stores or online for only £4.00 and it lasts a long time because you dont need to use a lot.
                                      
i then use head and shoulders conditioner because i think it makes you hair extra soft which is £2.79. i usually leave it in my hair while i shave my legs and then wash it out so between 5-7 minutes.

                                          
when i get out of the shower i brush my hair through with a brush and then the bits that frame my face, with a comb. i apply some advance techniques daily results serum to make sure my hair doesnt go frizzy, because it usually does when i dont use it. you only need the amount of a 5p coin because it doesnt spread a long way and you can get that from avon for £3.29.

                                        

depending what im doing throughout the day i either dry it with a hairdryer but with a defuser on the end or just leave it to do dry naturally.

i hope this post helped and if you try any of the products tell me how they worked on your hair, gyps x x

Skin Care Routine

hey guys, ive mentioned in the past that my skin used to be really bad but now i take care of it it has got so much better, and i have had 3 people recently ask me i got it to improve.
i thought other people might have the problem i had and suffer with dry, spotty skin. i no longer do and if i do get one i treat it, it goes within a day and usually (sorry everyone) it is around my time of the knth so it doesnt really count.
so first of all when i wake up i clean my face with pure 3 in 1 makeup removal cleansing wipes which you can pick up from a local poundland and the deal has recently gone up to £1 for three packs!
                                          

so anyway i use one of them in the morning, then moisturize my nose with simple because i do often get dry skin on my nose.                                      
                                          

i then, before i apply my makeup, put on some karin herzog spot cream which i talking about in a previous post. i let it sink in and then get ready for the day.

                                        

whenever i get home from wherever i have been , unless im going out again, i take my makeup off straight away with the pure 3 in 1 makeup wipe, wash my face in the sink with no7 gentle foaming face wash. and then straight away apply my simple moisturizer again.

                                   

*also another tip is to drink lots of water, i get through at least 4 bottles waters a day*

i hope this post helped, please comment and follow, tell your friends to follow aswell:) gyps x x



January Haul




i haven't done a proper haul for a long while so i thought it was definitely time i did. so this month i have bought (or my lovely mom has bought me) quite a few things.
not all the things that ive had this month will be in this haul for obvious reasons because some of it is books, magazines, chocolate and dvds, but this is the things that will be:
-frizz ease curl reviver styling mousse
-herbal essence hello hydration shampoo
-herbal essence hello hydration conditioner
-advance techniques curl defining gel
-vaseline limited edition pink bubbly

so firstly i was bought two bottles of the frizz ease curl reviver styling mousse, bought for me by my sisters best friends nan. so if you didnt already know i have curly hair and sometimes it can be hard to keep under control. these do help a lot. it is a mousse and i put it in my hair when wet and let it dry naturally with this in and in my opinion it keeps my curls refined but defined.
it is £5.29 and you can get it from drug stores, for two bottles it wasnt on any offer at the time so it was normal price (£10.58) but i do really love it and if you have curly/frizzy hair its a great product to buy.


the next thing i got bought was advance techniques curl defining gel, who was also bought for me by my sisters best friends nan who is lovely for getting me these! ive had advance techniques products for years now and i honestly think they are amazing and will probably be doing a post about them soon. this product is an avon make so im sorry if you are from anywhere other than the uk because i dont think you can get it anywhere else. 
for a 150ml bottle it is only £4.80, avon is very cheap but very good!


today i got home from school and my mom had bought me a few things which i thought was lovely of her. she got me herbal essences shampoo and conditioner limited edition. its such a pretty bottle which is partly the reason she bought it me! i have yet to try it but i know that it is coconut, so it should be amazing. you can get it from drugstores at £3.79



finally the last thing i got which was also today off my mom was the limited edition vaseline, i dont know if you have seen it but it is amazing!! it is pink bubbly, and it smells quite fruity and like lush in a way, it has a beautiful case and she knows i really wanted it. i really recommend it because it is so good but hurry because it wont be out much longer. this was £3.50 from drugstores.



really hope you enjoyed this post and as i always say, if you have any questions please please post them in the comments below, love you all<3 gyps x x








Karin Herzog Vita-A-Kombi3 Review

hey guys, i'm going to try and keep this post zhort because i really want you to read it and i don't want you to loose interest.

ok so i don't know if you have heard of Karin Herzog cosmetics, it is a pretty well know but expensive make. i own one thing by them and it is their spot cream, vita-a-kombi3. i don't know if any of you suffer with spots but most teenagers do so even if you get the odd one, its worth buying because it gets rid of the spot in 2 days and doesn't leave a mark!


you can either buy the 15ml bottle which is £21.50 or the 50ml bottle which is £50.50. i know it sounds a ridiculous amount to spend on a cream and i thought the same until i tried it.

it gets rid of spots, cold sores, blisters, boils, pigmentation etc without leaving a mark, and within two days you cant even tell anything has been there in the first place.

i think ive said everything i need to about this product and as i said i want keep it short because it is a truly amazing product and it is by fair my favorite product i won. i strongly recommend trying this and if you don't suffer with spots then try something else by Karin Herzog.

if you do decide to try it leave a comment and let me know what you think, comment if you have any questions also and please follow! gyps x x
