Life Update | University
Hello, I know it's been forever since I have done a blog post so I feel like I have some explaining to do as why I gave up blogging for a few months! In September I moved to Birmingham to go to University so most of my time has been taken up with settling into uni life! I can admit that I am loving uni so far and can't wait for the rest of my uni experience.
So in September I packed all my stuff up and moved to Birmingham to start studying for a Degree in Marketing. I did have a bit of a nightmare when I went to move into my uni halls and then got told they weren't ready for us to move into so I had to stay in a hotel for the first few nights of freshers which was a bit weird. After about a week we were finally able to move into our accommodation. It's weird too think that I have only been at university for a few months and I am already sorting out a house with a group of friends for next year!
Basically I wanted to write this post just to inform you guys of where I have been for the past few months! I thought as Christmas is just round the corner it would be the perfect time to get back into blogging!
Make sure you are following me on my Instagram so you can keep up with what I'm doing! chloewrighttt
Can't wait to come up with some ideas for new blogposts! Hope you enjoyed my little life update and if you have any university related questions please ask me and I'll see if I can help you out!
See you in my next post!!

Favourite High End Eye Shadow Palettes
Today I thought I would share some of my most favourite high end eye shadow palettes, you guys should let me know if you would like me to do a drugstore version on this post! Starting off with the newest eye shadow palette which I recently picked up whilst in Barcelona is the Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette, I have only had this for just under a month now but I can already say it has become a firm favourite of mine. The first thing I noticed about this palette was the smell, it smells so good you could eat it (although I'd recommend not doing that lol). The shadows in this palette are so creamy and blend beautifully. One of the main thing I love about this palette is that you can go for really natural looks or you can really build the shadows up and go for a really intense look. I use this palette so much whether it is just for my everyday makeup or nights out!
The Urban Decay Naked Palettes are some of my most loved palettes that I own! I still need to get the original one to add to my collect but I love the ones I have. I own Naked 2, Naked 3 and Naked Smokey. I always end up going back to my naked palettes, the colour payoff is amazing and they last ages on the eye without creasing and are just so pretty! If their is anyone who is starting out with makeup and wants to make a high end purchase I would recommend the naked palettes to everyone!
The last palette I'm going to mention in this post is The Balm's Nude Tude, as you can see I love a good neutral palette so this goes well with that. I love the shades in this palette and they are all so wearable and I am able to get use out of each shade. The shadows are really pigmented and so easy to blend!
Thank-you for reading this post, I hope you have enjoyed it! What are your favourite eye shadow palettes? Make sure you let me know. See you next time!

Barcelona Sephora Haul
For the past 5 days I have been in Barcelona on holiday and as I was there I just had to make a trip to Sephora as I have never actually been too one before! I picked up a few things as it was my birthday and my boyfriend also treated me to the Kat Von D palette which I have wanted for ages! I went into Sephora twice, the first time I just got the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in the shade Trooper which is a jet black shade. I have used this eyeliner a couple of times now and it is the best eyeliner I have ever used! I think it beats my other all time favourite which is the Stila Stay All Day eyeliner.
On my second trip too Sephora which was on my birthday this is when I brought everything else. I got the Kat Von D Shade & Light Contour Palette which I have wanted for so long and I can't wait too start using it. The shades are so nice and I think I will be able to use all of them! I also picked up one of the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eye Palettes, one thing I have too say about this palette is that it smells amazing! I have heard everyone going on about this palette and now I can see why everyone loves it. From Too Faced I also got one of their blushes in the shade - I Will Always Love You. This is a pretty peach shade with a slight shimmer in it. I love blushes like this and can't wait too start using it! The last thing I got was a Beauty Blender, I have wanted one of these for ages and they worked out cheaper when I was in Barcelona so I thought it was a great time to pick one up finally! I haven't used it yet, but can't wait too start using it as I have heard so many great things about it!
Hope you guys enjoyed this post today! If you want too see any pictures from my trip to Barcelona I have been uploading some on my Instagram so make sure you are following me on there my username is chloewrighttt!

Drugstore Haul
So the other day whilst I was in town I thought I'd treat myself to some new makeup, I made my way into boots and super drug and this is what I picked up. Starting with boots, I noticed that a lot of Soap & Glory products had £2 off them so I repurchased two of my favourite products; these are the One Heck of a Blot Powder and the Primer. I have used these products many times before and they are some of my all time favourite base products! I then found myself looking at their lipsticks and I picked up two from their nudes collection, the shades I got are Love & O-Biege which is a really pretty nude shade which is a shine finish and then I also got Barley Pinking which is a pink nude which is also a shine finish.
I also went to Superdrug as I wanted too pick up a few things from Tanya Burr's new Soft Luxe range, the only thing they had in stock from this range was the nail polish in Piggy Bank. Its a really pretty muted pink shade and looks so lovely on the nails! From her previous collection I picked up the Hollywood eyeshadow pallet which has a lovely range of golds and browns. I also picked up a lipgloss in the shade Just Peachy! I love these lip glosses as they are so pigmented and smell amazing!
Hope you enjoyed this post today! Have you picked up anything from the drugstore lately?

Monthly Favourites | June 2016
Hello guys! So I know it has been ages since I have uploaded a blogpost but I was really busy with college as it is my final year and that was my main focus. Since I have now finished college and have a long summer break before I start university I really want to get back into blogging! I thought the best post too do to get back into the swing of things would be a monthly favourites, so here is everything I have been loving throughout the month of June.
The first product that I have been loving are my new GHD straighteners, when choosing a new pair of straighteners I found this stunning limited edition pair. The model of straighteners is called the GHD V Marine Allure Styler. I have always had GHD straighteners and I find them the best ones too use as they always last for ages and keep my hair straight throughout the day. I also find that they are really easy to also use too curl my hair, I love the curls I get from using these!
I recently got some new make up brushes from Spectrum Collections and these are the prettiest brushes I have ever owned, they are also super soft as well! One thing I also love about this brand is that is completely vegan and cruelty free! My favourite brush I got has got too be the B01 which is the flat topped brush, I find this the best brush for foundation as you can get a smooth and even finish and really buff the product into the skin. The C03 brush which is the tapered blush is great for powder and setting your makeup. I would highly recommend these brushes as they are really affordable and great quality for the price!
The Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation is a new favourite of mine. I have never actually brought a high end foundation, but was finding that the drugstore ones I was using just weren't the right shade and didn't sit right on my skin. So I decided to try the Urban Decay one, this is now my new favourite foundation! It sits so nicely on my skin and it doesn't even look like I have foundation on and makes my skin looks flawless! Another face product which I have been loving is the Benefit Watts Up highlighter. I think I have mentioned this on my blog before buy I recently rediscovered it. I love the golden highlight this gives and adds just a touch of glow too my skin.
Hope you have enjoyed todays post, let me know what you have been loving throughout this month!
