CHRISTMAS TREE TIMEE!!

Hi guys, So if you follow me on Twitter (@BeautyByNumbers) then you will already have seen one of these photos, but I thought that I would put them on here in a little post for you guys.

So this year is the first year that I have had a real Christmas tree at my house, which I was very excited for. It is tradition in my family to all go together and buy our real trees from somewhere near to us. On Saturday Me, My Auntie & Uncle, Grandad & Uncles 2 Granddaughters all went to get 2 Christmas Trees, this was so much fun and we had breakfast afterwards and that kind of thing, these 2 trees were for at my Nan & Grandads house and my Auntie & Uncles house. I wasn't allowed to get mine until today because there were still things that needed to be moved around from when we first moved in! (Which yes was in July!!) So instead, Me, My Mum & Stepdad went to get ours today. We had to go to 2 different places because the 1st place (where we had gotten them from on Saturday) barely had any left at all. But we did finally get one and me and my mum put it up. (With help from my Stepdad hacking at the bottom of it with his shark knife so we could get it in the stand) We have also decorated it and everything and I am so happy with how it looks.

So this is our tree! Doesn't it look sooooo pretty!

There also was another reason I decided to do this post because I thought what best time for the first outing of my Christmas jumper, was going to get the Christmas tree.

This is my Christmas jumper! I absolutely love it, it was from the men's section in Primark and cost just £10, I had been looking for one for ages and this was my favorite of all of the ones I had seen or tried on!

What do all of you guys Christmas trees look like? And have you got a Christmas jumper?

Christmas Party #1

 Hi Guys, I hope that you are all okay, this is a very random post if I am completely honest. I just thought that I would show you all some of the photos from my boyfriend's Golf Christmas Party that was last Saturday night.

As you may be able to tell as the photos go on, I had been drinking a little bit of wine, (not condoning alcohol at all!) *HEHE* I am old enough to drink as I am 20! We had such a lovely time, with lovely food, drinks and company!

My dress was from H by Henry Holland
Chris's suit was from Asos

Have any of you guys had any Christmas parties yet?

Review: The 17 Smokey Eye Palette

Hey Guys,

I hope that you are all okay, I know that I haven’t been around for a week or so but things got a little on top of me! However I am back with a little review on the 17 Smokey Eye Palette. This is free when you spend over £5.99 on the 17 range in Boots. My Nan kindly gave me this because she got it for free. So I thought that I would review it for you guys, 

It comes in a nicely designed black grey and gold box which I actually really like. The actual packaging of the palette is quite basic, its plain black chunky packaging with white writing on, however I do quite like it. 

The kit contains 3 Eyeshadows, 1 Mini Eyeliner Pencil & 1 Mini Brush. I quite like the pigmentation of all of the eyeshadows. My favourite is the palest colour in the palette, which is a shimmery silver colour which I think I will probably use most out of all of the colours in this palette. The other 2 colours are both nice and I think all complement each other to make a good smoky eye look from just one palette.

What do you guys think about this palette, would you consider getting it with some other 17 products?

What Is Currently In My Shower

Hi guys,

I hope that you are all okay! So I thought that I would show you all my favourite shower products at the moment!

Firstly I have Soap & Glory’s Flake Away body scrub, This big pot is almost all gone and I have used 2 small ones before as well, I just absolutely love it for my legs and rest of my body, especially because in the UK at the moment it is soooo colddd!!! I just love using this and I love the smell as well! 

Secondly I have St Ives Fresh Skin Invigorating Apricot Scrub, this is my go to face scrub! I absolutely love it, I have no idea how long I have used this for on and off! I don’t just use this in the shower, I use it over the sink as well, probably every 2 days. I love the smell and how well it exfoliates my skin! Especially, as I have just said because it is so cold in the UK at the moment!

Next I have Superdrug Naturally Radiant Brightening Hot Cloth Cleanser, this smells so amazing! It has Kiwi and Mulberry extracts in it and it just smells so fresh, I love it! I use this morning and night, in the morning I just use it once to clean and awaken my skin, in the evening I use it once to take off my makeup and once to clean my face. Again I don’t just use this in the shower, but I do love washing my face in the shower with this, because it’s so thick and creamy I feel like if I leave it on for a bit and then wash it off (like I do with conditioner in my hair) my skin loves me for it.  

Next I have my all-time favourite shampoo, which is Herbal Essences Smooth & Soft, this is hands down my favourite shampoo I have ever used! I love it because it isn’t a gel formula like most other shampoos, it is more of a cream formula, and to me it just seems to foam up so much better than any others, which I love from shampoo, and also it just seems to leave my hair so clean that I am not having to wash it as often as I was before. This also smells amazing! ( I'm going a little smell crazy today I think) My boyfriend even uses this when he is at my house and he likes it too. 

Next is my Current Conditioner, Vo5 Give Me Moisture, unlike shampoo I have not yet found my go to conditioner, I always try something different, I do love this one though! But I do think I will continue to try others once this is finished! It smells good and I really do think it is a good moisturising conditioner, I really like using moisturising conditioners because my hair can get very dry. 

And lastly is my favourite of all these favourites. Lush Snow Fairy shower gel! OMG it is now December so I am allowed to get excited for Christmas, and this is one thing that always gets me in the mood, I went and bought a massive bottle and just cannot get enough!  It smells incredible, like sweets and candy floss! I love the fact that it has glitter in it too, just gives it that little bit extra to me, but then again I am a sucker for anything pink and sparkly! I know that I am going to have to make sure that I get another bottle before the Christmas season is over! Because I will use this all year round! 

Anyway guys, these are what are currently living in my shower, if you have any recommendations for me let me know.

What is living in your shower at the moment?

All Used Up #3

Hello Guys,

So this is going to be quite a long post & quite picture heavy, this is my 3^rd empties post as even though I have been a little absent I have still been collecting my empties and stuff for you all! :)

Wella Silvikrin Hairspray

I absolutely love this! I have used it for years, ever since I was dancing as I used to find it to be the best thing to keep out big hairstyles in place. I have already bought a new can of it and have been using it all of the time again; I can’t see me changing my allegiance for hairspray any time soon.

Nivea Daily Essentials Face Wipes

I have actually used 2 packs of these recently! One at my boyfriend’s house and one at my house, I did like them however Simple are my favourite face wipes and I am using them again now! 

Sally Hansen Strengthening Nail Polish Remover

This again is another staple in my dressing table! I always use it and don’t generally defer from using it, it takes everything off my nails and doesn’t make them feel brittle or dry at all! I pain my nails quite a lot and change the colour often so it is something that I use a lot of the time!

M & S Bohemia Shower Gel

I got this last Christmas off my Nan with a bottle of the perfume, I really love the smell of it and I use the perfume on a daily basis when I don’t want anything too strong! However I don’t think that I would repurchase it as I like lots of different shower gels, at the moment I am using Lush Snow Fairy. 

Tony & Guy Conditioner for Brunette Hair

This wasn’t one of my favourite conditioners I have ever used! I felt like I needed a lot of it and I wasn’t too keen on the smell! It did condition my hair really nicely once I had used enough of it to go through my hair, this being the case it didn’t last me very long and it wasn’t the cheapest, so I wouldn’t repurchase this again. 

Body Shop Cranberry Joy Shower Gel

I absolutely love this! I bought 3 bottles in the January sales when they were about £1.50 each and have pretty much been using them all year round! They smell amazing! It is one of my favourite, if not my favourite scent from the Body Shop, I wish it wasn’t just limited edition at Christmas! My boyfriend even really likes it! So I think I may go and get some more over this Christmas period to save up for over the next year when I cannot buy it any more.

No7 Beautiful Skin Eye Make-Up Remover

I bought this when I had a £5 boots voucher because I love trying new products from No7 when I have them, I had never used an eye make-up remover which had the water and oil in and you have to shake before you use it. I did really like it and it made me not have to scrub at my eyes when taking my makeup off, however I am now using the Clinique eye make-up remover which is the same and it is so much better, the No7 one made my eyes sting a little bit, the Clinique one feels as gentle as water on my eyes.

Dove Go Fresh Cucumber & Green Tea Deodorant

 If you have seen either of my other empties posts you will be able to see that this is another staple in my life! It is the only deodorant that doesn’t make me come out in a rash under my arms! I don’t think I need to write any more about this to be honest! 

Johnsons Face Wipes

Again another pack of face wipes! Like I said before simple face wipes are my favourite, these were nice however they made my face a little sore after I had used them. I liked the smell of them but I do not think that I will repurchase them. 

Clinique Superdefence Moisturiser

 This is my daily moisturiser, I absolutely love it, it makes my skin feel great and I have used it for a long time! I haven’t had it in full size because I use a lot of Clinique products and you get a lot of mini’s in the bonus time packs that you get with 2 purchases. I am using another one now! I love the fact that it has SPF in it as well! 

Soap & Glory Flake Away

I absolutely love this body scrub! This is just a mini version of the scrub, I now have it in the large size, I use it about once a week, especially now It is getting into winter and my skin is getting drier. I would obviously repurchase this again after I have used up my large size one!

Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Clarifying Lotion

I think that this has been in another one of my empties posts! I use this twice a day as my toner! You have to shake it to activate the powder in the liquid. I will hands down put my skin clearing up down to this! When I don’t use it my skin gets so much worse and I break out a lot, this is such a staple in my daily routine, which at the moment is working well for me.

So guys these are my Empties  of late, have any of you had any recent empties?

Lots of Love
