So recently I went to the Center Parcs in Longleat and I absolutely loved loved loved it. I would 100% recommend it, although take a lot of money because this place is hella expensive. But everything is just so lovely you want to do it all. There is eventually going to be a YouTube video about this trip and you'll see it all in action but for now I just wanted to upload a few of the good photos I got from this trip, bare in mind some of them are different dimensions due to some being taken on my camera and some taken via snapchat. So the above photo is what our cabin looked like - it had recently been refurbished and it was probably the nicest looking out of them all - apart from the lovely treehouse cabins you can book!

I really loved the pool, a lot. It was tonnes of fun, there was a huge ride, you get dropped into this huge tunnel like dome really fast so your rubber dingy goes up all the walls and it's just such a thrill its great. You have the rapids too (shown in the photo above) which was also super super fun, I've honestly never wanted to go back to a park as much as I have this one. Also because the pool is heated to a certain temperature there is a plunge pool heated to only 9 degrees! There is two children pools, a wave machine, saunas and a lazy river it is honestly a great experience.

Everyone also really seemed to enjoy their bikes too, unfortunately I picked the one without a bell. Which.. probably is a blessing because.. well, I would have used it to my advantage.

Second night we had a BBQ, on our tiny little throw-away BBQ. It was lovely to just sit outside in the hot air together and mess around. 

I also went to the pancake house which was great. The waffles were so crispy on the outside and so soft in the middle. We sat outside with annoying wasps and pictures of birds on the walls.

Obviously that night we went back to Las Iguanas and got more cocktails.. 

My boyfriend brought me this super cute stuffie from one of the shops and I absolutely adore it, I named it sparky.

Eventually our last day came and that was full of ducks, food, lake water and milkshakes.

Overall this holiday was amazing, you can order room service too which me and my boyfriend did the night of the football semi finals. We ordered Indian and sat and watched it all. I really want to go back next year.

I hope this was a good read, remember there will eventually be a montage video about this so keep your eyes peeled for that.

So, apart from foundations, I have never once used up a whole product before. I'm a type of person that will buy - for example, a cleanser one week, use it for a few days, fall in love with it.. then go out and buy a new one. I love love love getting new products and trying them out - It's my job really!

But, I've managed to buy these products and not buy anything else to replace them because I've loved them that much. I am proud.

I use all of these products together as well. There's 2 hair products and 2 skincare products. First up is going to be the hair-care products

John Frieda Frizz Ease 3 day straight spray straightening spray - This is the first thing that I'll put on my hair after towel drying it a little bit, I must spray loads though because this did run out quite fast.. oops. You can definitely tell when I don't use this product on my hair, it also adds a bit of body to my flat flat hair too, which is great! My hair is very frizzy and 100% not straight ever. So, this tames it as much as it can hold..

L'oreal Elvive Dream Lengths no hair cut cream - The only other L'Oreal product I like is their clay shampoos and conditioners, they are amazing. But I really do like this one too, it makes my hair a lot fluffier which you know, distracts from all my ugly split ends. My hair is completely damaged beyond repair with split ends but I have noticed I don't get much breakage anymore and it does seal a few of my current split ends. It does what it says on the tin but unfortunately like I said.. my hair is beyond fixing. This also smells absolutely amazing.

Now onto the skincare ones..

9 to 5 LUSH cleanser - I have never loved a cleanser more than I have this one, it really is a fantastic product, I was a bit cautious buying this because I have oily skin and one ingredient is almond oil, but it only makes my skin feel super soft, not oily at all! So that's fab. Unfortunately for me I do cake a bit of make-up on my face so that means I have to use quite a decent amount of this product, as I use it with a cotton pad and the cotton pad soaks up the product.

Mario Badescu facial spray with aloe, herbs and rose water - I use this spray for two different things, one for getting my brushes wet & eyebrow pomade wet so I can work with it easier and the other use obviously is to tone my skin with! I was drawn to this spray because of the rosewater, I used to use an Origins mask that used rosewater as a base ingredient and I love love loved that mask so I brought this! This along with the 9 to 5 cleanser cleared my skin up within 2 weeks! I'm definitely going to re-buy this one, maybe even the bigger one because this is now such a necessity in my make-up bag I don't know how I'm going to make-up without it..

What are your current empties? Let me know!

Payday is slowly.. slowly approaching and my need for new things is growing. So I thought I'd share them with you! One of my favourite bloggers did a coveting post and I thought it was a great idea.

Jeffree Star Pro Palette Platinum Ice - I'm getting a little bored of my current highlighters, for some reason my Sleek highlighter has gone a weird muggy grey colour when I apply it and my The Balm highlighter has hit pan and is about to run out. I was speaking to a cousin of mine the other day and she told me that the highlight she was wearing was a Jeffree Star one and seeming as I've only ever owned one of his lipsticks and never a highlighter this palette appealed to me, I get bored fast of one colour so.. 6 is enough!

Papier The Little Mermaid Planner - This abit of a pricey planner, but I love love love writing little lists and organising my days and this is super adorable. I'm not a huge disney fan but I've always loved Ariels hair!

Stila All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner - I've just recently gotten back into using liquid eyeliner (which will now add another ten minutes to me getting ready in the morning.. great!) I've heard really good things about this eyeliner from a few YouTubers I've watched, unfortunately my NYX one is all dried up now so I need to invest in a new eyeliner. This is definitely my next choice!

No7 Protect and Perfect Intense Advanced BB Facial Sun Protection in "50 Fair" - Now working in Boots, I know a lot about No7 products and I am obsessed with them. I honestly do adore them. I've been looking for a BB cream that is also a suncream and I think I finally found the one I want. I own the normal suncream version of this, which I love! Its quite thick so I also use it on my tattoos. I'm going on holiday soon and I really need a BB cream because I don't want to be putting foundation on and my full face of make-up every morning, especially when I'm going to be going in the pool etc!

Revolution X Soph Extra Spice - I don't have any reasoning or excuse to why I want this product apart from the fact I haven't brought a new palette in a long long time and I didn't ever own Sophie's first palette so I guess owning her second one will have to do! It looks so beautiful.

Minnie and Mickey Vintage Set - I really need some new pyjamas, especially for holiday this year. I somehow keep losing all my pyjama shorts and the only tops I seem to own are either really small strappy ones or huge jumper-like ones. I know I said I wasn't a huge fan of Disney but it was either this or My Little Pony ones, I got my boyfriend to decide for me and he chose these! I think they're super cute though, I really like them. I'm not really a "pretty pyjama" person, I'd much rather sleep in a band tee.

What are you guys wanting to buy when payday rolls around? Fingers crossed we don't all accidentally splurge and waste our money..
