Maybelline Baby Lips review!

Hello!
As I've mentioned previously, my most viewed post was a review so today I've decided to do something a little different from what you'd usually get form me and do a beauty item review! Before I get started I just want to say this isn't sponsored and I'm not getting any money from it or anything like that so this is just my honest opinion! Let's get into it!

I brought some Maybelline Baby Lips and they are lip balms with a hint of colour and lovely fragrances. I got three and they are (staring from the left to the right): Pink Punch, Strike a Rose (which is from the Electro Baby Lips line), and Peach Kiss. Pink Punch and Strike a Rose both have the same fruity smell which is gorgeous and Peach Kiss has a peach smell that is just perfection!

Strike a Rose has a lovely pink shade between baby pink and hot pink that looks soooooo pretty and, don't worry, is not nearly as bright as the tube actually looks! You can make it really subtle if you want with just one coat or build it up to get a darker shade. There are 3 other shades in the Electro line so comment down bellow if you would like me to get those and review them for you guys!

Pink Shock is a beautiful hot pink colour but if you apply the right amount it looks subtle and bright when you look close! As always, the more you apply the brighter and I love this colour!

Peach Kiss has a colour that I can't really describe: it's almost the exact colour as my normal lips! It's a light baby pink and it's really natural-looking and pretty and  I am obsessed after one application! By the way the colour in the tube looks entirely different: it's not that shiny brown/pink at all but it does have a nice little shine!Again, the more you apply the bolder it is but I love this colour quite subtle with 2-3 coats!

Overall, I think that the Maybelline Baby Lips are amazing and super moisturising and the colours and scents are great! The only thing is the colour doesn't last very long so overall I would definitely recommend this!
Hope you enjoyed!

Scooby Tutorial

Hey!
It's here!!!!!!!!!!! My very first scooby tutorial! Today I'll be showing you the Chinese Staircase stitch: it's simple and perfect for beginners plus the effect is gorgeous!

The Finished Product!

 Just to say, this is not my original design, I got taught! Let's get started....

You will need:
-2 scoobies
-a pencil (this is not necessary, you can use your fingers, but I find it easier with one!)

Scooby tutorial: Chinese Staircase

1.Fold both scoobies in half around your pencil (or finger). With all "four" strings tie a secure knot, pull the strings, and knot it again. If the strings aren't that even, it's OK, you neaten it up at the end!

2. Create a loop that goes over the other three scoobies and back into the starting loop to create a knot shape.

3. Continue this until lots of that scoobie has been used, but I suggest that there is at least 5cm of scoobie left for a neater effect. Then change color and repeat step 2.

4. Carry on until it is at the desired length and voila! This would look lovely as a keyring, just make sure the loop is long enough! You could do this by adding 2 pencils/pens instead of one.


I hope you liked this post: it took a while to come out!

Reviews and Other Stuff!

Hello guys!

Today I'm doing kind of an overview post and its more of a tell-me-what-you'd-like-me-to-do kind of thing. So far a really popular post of mine was a review post on the crochet book Easy World Craft: Crochet. Would you like me to do more of these? If so, what would you like them to be about? Another popular one was the 10 of my favourite loom band creations. would you like me to do more in this series thingy? Would you like them staying on the route of craft or would you like them to be a  wider range? I really want to know what you guys think I should do so that I can create content that you will actually want to read! And maybe I might be a little stuck on ideas........... :-)!Comment down bellow about what you think!

Duct Tape Crafts

Helloooooo!
I am soooooo sorry about not posting in, like, a month! I absolutely love posting but I've been really busy lately and tired when I'm not busy! I've got a tutorial coming soon that I've had in my drafts for around 2 months now!

So, on with the show!

I've really been into duct tape for ; in a watching You-Tube way! Where I am I can't really find any big rolls but in Tiger I've found some great mini rolls for 50've got p each which is amazing! I've got 2 mini rolls from Tiger: a moustache print and a check print.

As you may be able to see, I've used the moustache roll way more than the check print: I haven't even used the check print one, hence the green tab! I used the moustache roll to cover a grey sketch book to make it trendy and a little more jazzy!

If this post gets 10 views I will be working on a post that would show you my sketch book: I really got into drawing in the last weeks of the summer holidays! Also, comment if you have any posts that you'd like me to do!
