Being a Chronically Beautiful Girl

Hello my beautiful readers, how are you all doing today?  Now I am sure every single one of you will know by now about the new Urban Decay palette that will be released this summer, the Naked Smoky Palette.   As I am massive lover of Urban Decay eyeshadows I really, really, really wanted to do a blog post on my 1st impressions of this new palette but unfortunately as a not so popular beauty blogger there is no way that I will get my hands on this palette before it is released so I am going on and using picture's (t he two picture's that are featured in this post are from kandeej.com)   that I have seen on other blogs.  Picture from kandeej.com Picture from kandeej.com So will I be buying this new naked palette and the answer is................ yes I will.  When it comes to my regular makeup or should I say "my go to makeup" I am a smokey eye girl, actually the only time I really ever veer away from my smokey eyes is in the summer were opt...

Hello my beautiful reader's, now I know this is 2 coming soon blog posts in a row but I just had to do this post.   Urban Decay are releasing a third Vice palette!!! As you can see by the large bold writing I am super duper excited about this palette. At the moment Urban Decay aren't realising to many details about the Vice 3 palette but they have posted 3 photographs on their Facebook and Instagram page.  In this photograph model Chloe Norgaard is modelling an eye look which was creted using the Vice 3 As I said previously there isn't much information on this palette so there is no known release date yet but if it's like the previous Vice palettes there is a strong possibility that it will be released for this years Holiday season.

Hello my beautiful reades and welcome to my blog. For my very first post I thought why not introduce myself and tell you a bit more about myself. So my name is Leona, I am 26 years old and I was born and raised in Scotland. Unfortunately at age 11 I was diagnosed with an incurable illness called Crohn's. :( I hate being a sick person as my severe form of Crohn's has affected the way I live my life but without it I would never have discovered my  love for makeup, fashion and blogging. :)  I think the reason why I love makeup and fashion so much is, it lets my creative side come out plus sometimes it is the only way to make myself feel better when I am ill. I would really love to become a professional makeup artist and one of the things on my to do list is to attend the Illamasqua Professional Make Up Artist course.  I aim to post as many blog posts as I can but sometimes because my health can become very rubbish I have to spend time in hospital and...
