Hey guys!!
It is currently 02.55am and I'm up editing an assignment that's due in at 4pm tomorrow. I finished it two day ago but I've only just got round to proofreading and editing as I've had food poisoning all week. I know, I know. Poor old me...so I felt I deserved a five minute break and thought I'd give you a quick update.

I finished it two day ago but I've only just got round to proofreading and editing as I've had food poisoning all week. I know, I know. Poor old me...so I felt I deserved a five minute break and thought I'd give you a quick update.
So once again I am doing a tag video... most of the views I get are on beauty/tag posts so I thought if that's what the public wants, that's what they want... I'm doing the 7 deadly sins of beauty because like most people with low self confidence, I am obsessed with covering my face and nails in things they don't need to be covered in to make myself feel more secure about imperfections I have that no-one else can see...that and I like the concept. ENJOY!!!
Side-note: I know I don't need make-up to make me happy, and my friends, family and boyfriend all do an amazing job of helping me see how great I can be... however, every so often I just feel like I need that eyebrow pencil to really kick self-confidence in the crotch. Plus, I have brow skills for days!!!
1. GREED: What is your most inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?
My cheapest item is probably a lipbalm from any random shop... I think I got one for 20p last week...
My most expensive item is my GHD's, I got them one Christmas when I was about 14... I've used them to death, they're slightly broken, smoke out my room if they're on for 5 mins+ but I won't bin them because they were a gift from my mam and dad.
2. WRATH: What beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with?
I absolutely love eye glitter... I think if applied right it can add a whole new dimension to your make-up, and I just love looking like a fairy with glittery eyes and corkscrew curls!!! However, I tend to be too impatient to do it properly and end up with glitter streaked across my face and looking like a unicorn shat glitter all across my face...
3. GLUTTONY: What are your most delicious beauty products?
My most delicious products..? Erm, the most physically edible is my 'Mint Julips' Lush lip scrub which is essentially just granulated sugar and peppermint oil but is DELISH!!! The nicest smelling is my raspberry & blackberry body spritzer from I love... which I've started using between perfumes and am spraying into my hair and clothes as it doesn't really last long on my skin.
4. SLOTH: What beauty product do you neglect, due to laziness?
Anything hair related. I hate doing my hair. Really. It does my nut in, it takes way too long to condition because of natural dryness mixed with living next to the sea. I have to do a hair mask every fortnight if I want soft hair that doesn't scratch my eyes out of it's windy... The thickness of my hair means it takes over 8 hours to dry naturally, and it's just a pain to style because it grows upwards and in whichever direction it likes!!! Ginger hair is a bloody pain guys!
5. PRIDE: What beauty product gives you the most self confidence?
I have to say two for this. A good moisturizer, always! I have dry skin and like with my hair, this is just aggravated by living on the coast... I also need a brow pencil in a dark blonde/light brown shade so I can pretend my brows are naturally visible. Brows are my favourite part of my makeup and the majority of the compliments I get are about them.
6. LUST: What attributes do you find most attractive in the opposite sex?
Beauty wise? I don't know... skin. Preferably on them. Eyes, again preferably attached to them... My boyfriend does a whole daily skin care routine to remove acne scarring and it irritates the frick out of me. I guess as long as they moisturize so their skin is still in good condition and they wash and take care of their teeth I can't complain.
7. ENVY: What items would you most like to receive as a gift?
I always like getting nail varnish and nail related items because I like to experiment with different nail looks. I don't really like being bought makeup as no-one in my family wears it and they don't know where to find foundation to match my uber pale skin tone, hypoallergenic mascara and eyeliner, and a decent lippy. A compact's always useful and I have a neighbour who gives me sister and me a manicure kit each every Christmas without fail which I always look forwards to.
And that's it!!! If that was too boring for words I apologize, but if you liked it let me know what kind of content you'd prefer me to put up here and I'll do my best to fit it in...
