My top YouTube go to's!

Hi loves, 

I'm not sure if I have to have their permission to name them?

But I thought I'd give the beginners to beauty guru's/YouTube tutorials a head start in who I think is the most inspiring & who has helped me along the way and also who's blogs & youtube's I still check regularly! 

I suppose this could be for people who are regular but may have not come across them? However thar may be impossible as they have a huge following however, here it goes..

My all time favourite mascara

Hi I hope you's are all well

L'oreal Volume Million Lashes

This is my favourite mascara of all time! I am in love with it. As you can see by the well used tube.

It gives a really good coating of mascara without making your lashes look like spider legs! It makes your lashes look so long and full! And I think it's only about £10, this has been my go to mascara forever now and I still love it! 

Here is a picture of how they look after one super quick coat of it! 

Take care,

Sincerely, Cgx

New born baby!

I hope you's are all well! 

The feeling of having a new born in your family, is a one you can't beat right?

I am on such a high that my baby cousin has been brought into the world today at 20:31pm after 38 hours of labour, that I can't sleep.

She is absolutely beautiful & I fell in love with her the minute I saw her. 

All my love,

Sincerely, Cgx
