First Impression- The Body Shop All-in-One Primer and BB Cream

Yesterday, I went to shopping with my sister. I went only looking for some new make up and a bag, and I succeeded.
   I went in to the body shop, and saw the All-In-One BB Cream. This has been so popular everywhere lately, I must be so late to the game. All of the beauty bloggers and YouTubers love it, and I really wanted to try it out.
   My experiences in the Body Shop have always been great, but the lovely lady who helped me on this occasion was exceedingly wonderful. She came over, and I got a bit, scared almost. I am 16 years old but being very short, I look a lot younger. When I do go shopping in beauty shops, I sometimes get treated strangely. Some shop assistants almost expect that I won't buy anything, or I'm too young for their products. This aggravates me, and when customer assistants do approach me, I get a little nervous, expecting they are going to look down on me in some way.
   The girl in the body shop, came over to me very happy and cheery, and saw that I had picked up the BB Cream. 'Oh my God you've saw our BB Cream! It's been all over the magazines this month, have you seen our offer?' She showed me that I got the primer half price with the BB Cream, and I was so tempted. Obviously she was trying to get me to buy it, that was her job after all. She said all these lovely things about this magical BB Cream and was ecstatic when I decided to purchase it. As I left the store, she shouted, 'You'll fall in love with it! Come back and let me know if you like it!'
   I have fallen in love with it. This review is my first impression, as I used it for the first time today, but so far, it is magical.
 I first used the Instablur primer, and when I initially put it on my hand, it looked almost grainy, like an exfoliate.

However, when I put it on my face, I immediately felt a difference. My face suddenly felt so smooth, and I only used a tiny tiny bit. So the Instablur primer was a hit.

   I then used the BB cream. I knew that it was a colour adapting cream, so obviously it initially came out white with little specks of skin tone.

And again, when I put this on my face, it changed everything. I loved the way it adapted to MY skin tone. I am very pale, and I find it very difficult to find a foundation that isn't orange, but also doesn't make me look like a ghost. This was perfect. I can't say enough good things about it. 

This is a picture of me with only these 2 products on. I have no concealer, eye makeup or any other foundations. 

It gave me good coverage, without feeling like I had painted my face. I felt like I had no make up on, but I looked a bit better than if I actually didn't! 

The pack of the 2 was £20, which is a little bit more expensive than another drug store BB cream or foundation, but it was worth it.

So, if you are looking for a light foundation or BB cream, I would definitely suggest you try this one out! 

Until next time,

Organ Donation and Youtube

Hey Everyone!

I think I’m in the mood to write a really long blog post, I just want to chat!

   To begin, this week is National Transplant Week. There has been lots of stories and experiences being talked about surrounding the topic of transplants during this week and you have no idea how much it means to me. I, myself, have a congenital heart condition called Hypo-Plastic Left Heart Syndrome, and eventually I will also need a transplant. To explain how much a transplant means to people like myself is impossible, it is our second chance at life. All of my family are on the organ donor list, and we are always trying to convince others to join as well. To rely on someone else to sadly pass away, for you to live yourself must be incredible. I have no idea who, or if anyone reads my blog. It’s just a place for me to talk, and I think it’s great. If you are reading this, and are not on the donor list, please hear me out! To know that if you were to die, a part of you would live on in someone else. If you were to die, someone out there would be able to live longer. If you were in the situation of needing an organ, wouldn’t you be begging on your hands and knees for one? Or if your son, daughter, mum, dad, sister, brother or whoever needed an organ to live, wouldn’t you be praying and praying that one would emerge for them? If you just think of who is on the other side, and how much it would mean to them if a generous person were to give up something they no longer need… To be in that situation yourself, you would see how much a second chance at life would mean to you. Thanks for reading my ramble, but go for it! You have nothing to lose, only more life for someone else to gain.

   The next thing I want to talk about has been pending with me for a long time. It’s very nerve wracking for me to do, but I have finally decided, I am going to do YouTube. It is something I am so interested in, and for some reason I have been so scared to do it. I think I was most scared about people in school, but I’ve just decided to let it go. I am 16 years old and I can do whatever hobby I like, so there! I am determined to keep at it, and I am so excited! My channel will just be a bit of everything, tags, vlogs, heart talk, and just whatever! Here’s a link to my channel so as you can be there when I upload my first video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT8Lse_gbT-3x3v8pZTZqgg

That’s just another check in, any comments leave down below! Thanks,
