Do What Makes You Happy #1

You're probably as surprised as I am to see a blog post uploaded by me. Firstly I've named this #1 because I may do a blog series around this (Let me know your thoughts?). Secondly, yes I've used a hash tag to mark a  number, not to get likes on my instagrams, or retweets on my tweets. (source) Finally..... In the past 2...

Dorothy Perkins Purchases

I always seem to find stuff when I'm not looking for it!

SALE: £5 SALE: £3 SALE: £3 SALE: £3 SALE: £12Have you found any...

Makeup Removal

For most of my teenage years, I was one of those girls who was clueless when it came to skin care. "A moisturiser is all you need" I told myself, but little did I know there was more to keeping your skin clean and healthy, especially when it comes to taking your make up off! I used make up remover wipes ONLY, for...

The Results Are In

Today was GCSE results day! Today people were hoping for the grades that would get them into sixth form/college/work/an apprenticeship. Today made me think way past college, which is rare because I couldn't even think about college at all, until a few months ago. Today has made me think about what I want my life to be like, and what I want from...

L'Oreal Wild Ombre

After A LOT of contemplating, I finally ombréd my hair using L'Oreal Wild Ombré kit. I used no.3 which is for blonde to dark blonde hair. Seeing as I naturally have dark blonde hair this was the best match for me. I purchased this kit from Superdrug for £6.63 who currently have a 2 for £11 offer on! I decided against buying two...

Life

You may have already guessed that I've been super busy this month as I haven't posted at all, until today! Everything that I was looking forward to this year has been in July and so I haven't been able to find the time to come on here and start typing about whatever. I thought that after finishing my GCSE exams and assessments I'd...

The Procrastinating Beauty Blogger Tag

I honestly read a lot more blog posts than I do write them and sometimes I get that mental block and don't have one idea on what to write about next. Because of this I love reading blogs that people have been tagged to do as they are always a great thing to do as well. It's even better when a blogger tags EVERYONE to...

Merry Monday

(source) It's monday here on A Girl Behind a Lens and you know what that means... (hands up if you read that as if you were Daily Grace). This Monday, the sun's out, you probably won't be at work or school, and so you're day is probably already going great! In my eyes everyone begins to become much happier when summer's approaching, the...

Loves of Last Month: April

(This is ridiculously late...sorry!) It's not every month I try new products and like them enough to put together a Loves of Last month post, but in April I began using some products that I absolutely love now and so as we're only just in May I thought I'd share them with you! So.. The first product I purchased very early on in April was the MUA Undressed Eyeshadow...

GLOSSYBOX IS 2!! May 2013 Birthday Edition Box

This month Glossybox became 2 and I was quick to realise it would be a good idea to re-join in, in all the action. It was a smart move, because today I received May's Birthday Edition box and it's a good 'un! Not only did Glossybox give everyone an extra gift of a little pack of mini nail files, but I was also given more...

Merry Monday

In love with this image! Reminds me of Spring so much :)(source) This post has been a long time coming! I'm not afraid to admit I've abandoned my 'Merry Monday' posts over the last couple of months and I really don't know why! Amongst all my posts, 'Merry Monday's' receive the most comments and seem to be one of the most popular posts...

I LOVE SPRING TAG

I first saw this tag on Fleur's YouTube and as Spring is one of my favourite seasons, I thought I'd do it too! I think that probably most people favour Summer when it comes to Seasons and if not, the other general answer is the complete opposite - Winter. Well.... Not me. I'm the awkward one who likes, what I call, the in betweens. My favourite...
