Whats in my makeup bag?

 
 
What better way too get to know someone than to take a look in my makeup bag? As a lot of us girls do, I love a little nose into my friends makeup bag, just too see what they've been loving and to just be sure there isn't anything that I need to buy! so I thought why not show you a sneek peek into mine? Enjoy!
 
 
Face products
 
 
 
 
We all love a good face product to cover up any imperfections, and these are just a few that I've been loving and carrying around with in my good old makeup bag!
 
-Mac studio fix powder<3
This is one of the many amazing things I had for Christmas, and there isn't really a lot you can say about a powder.. but it stays put all day and I recommend it a lot!!
 
-Benefit Total Moisture mini size<3
I love this, and extra love it for the sample size! I can honestly say its like giving my face a drink.. no
joke!
 
-Benefit Hello flawless foundation mini size<3
 I've been a lover of this foundation for a while because of its light coverage and brightening formula, which always help out on them days where your face is feeling down. But can we just take a moment to appreciate the mini size?...
 
...thank you.
 
 
-Bourjois Delice de poudre bronzer<3
It smells and look like chocolate, and its not expensive. what else is there too say?

-Rimmel London Stay Matte pressed powder<3
yes I have two powders, but this is a must-have for someone like me, who's t-zone likes to shine.


Eye products



What is makeup without the eyes? don't expect too bee too blown away with whats here, because im no pro;-)

-Rimmel London Brow this way<3
thank you for being there for me when my brows want to party.

-Soap and Glory Thick and fast mascara<3
because who doesn't love a good mascara?

-Benefit They're real mascara<3
yes I have two, but its too good to leave at home!

-Maybelline Colour tattoo in pink gold<3
lovely too slap on and leave the house and not look like a crazy lady, (swatches coming soon!)

Obsessed! - PLL

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
First of all, if you don't have Netflix, or a site in which you can watch series, or just don't watch the tv at all.. you probably wont have any idea what Pretty Little Liars is.
As you may or may not know from instagram, I am pretty obsessed with Ian Somerhalder in The Vampire Diaries, and I got slightly depressed when I finished season 5 and realised I couldn't watch season 6 episode 1(anyone know where I can?) . So of course I had to adopt a new series!
Id heard a few people rave about PLL and I nearly died of excitement (and fell off my bed) when they introduced it to my Netflix (best. thing. ever!)
 
So basically Pretty Little Liars is based on 5(or 4) girls, that are hooked on finding out what happened too their friend Alison who was murdered.
 
This post may bore you to death, but I just had to mention this show, because its soo addictive and o wanted to vary my posts;-)
should I do some sort of tag next?
 
love you all

Day out to cardiff

I've always loved the city, but I love it even more at Christmas/New Years.
No, not for the sales(ok maybe a little), but for the fact I've always loved the Christmas atmosphere.

Anyway, yesterday I went to cardiff, to spend my Christmas money, as did the majority of people around me. If you've ever been shopping around this time, then you'd know that the sales are CRAZY, so this was the perfect time to go.


*typical food selfie*
Obviously you can't shop on an empty stomach, so of course we had to stop for food, in this cute little pub. At the moment I'm a bit pasta obsessed, you know, just incase you were wondering.


Of course, a shopping trip isn't complete without a lovely strawberries and cream frappuccino. Successful shopping trip? Well I managed to spend every last penny so, yes!

Mini-haul coming up next,
Love, Caitlin xx

Hello world | Q&a




Recently, a few friends have been nagging me to start a blog, and I never listened. I didn't listen because I thought that no one would read it and it would just be a complete fail. But then I decided that if I never tried, I`d never know right?
So here I am, bringing idkcaits to life(that sounded A LOT better in my head).
    I had no idea how to start a blog, in fact, I must have thought about it forever! but then I finally decided, that because you clearly know nothing about me, I`d ask my lovely Instagram followers at idkcaits_, to chip in and ask me some questions!
So get ready to learn some things that you probably don't care about
here it goes:

1. Who`s your favourite youtuber?
 - This is actually so hard, because I practically live on Youtube.. Probably TheSacconeJolys, Zoella and Tanya Burr (more than one.. Oops)

2. What`s your favourite drugstore makeup brand?
- If you count what I have more of.. it would probably be Rimmel, although I do love a good quality MUA product!

3. If you could wish for one thing, what would it be?
-I`d wish for people to read this blog;)

4. What`s your holy grail makeup product?
- My famous Rimmel glam eyes black liquid eyeliner all the way!

5. What is your one item of clothing I couldn't live without?
- My black suede Chelsea boots (because I practically live in those too!)

6. Whats your favourite yankee candle?
- Honestly I don't have a favourite, because I switch them all the time, although at the moment its Blissful autumn.

7. Why did you decide to start a blog?
- Long story short, I basically loved all of my instagram followers, and I adored showing them what I loved, I got a new laptop, and thought 'hey, why not start a blog?' and here I am!

8. Fav emoji?
- As i`m on a laptop I cant show you, but the crying laughing emoji all the way because it never fails to make an awkward situation better.


So theres a bit of an insight into my life;)
Now its my turn to ask the question...
What would you like to see on my next post?

Thanks for taking time to read my post!
love, Caitlin xx
