What I got for my birthday

29th August 2017

sephora makeup themed cake

 

So it was my birthday on  Friday I was 26 wahhh, I’m getting so close to 30!! Scary times!! But because I’m going to America next week I didn’t really ask for much or want to celeibrate to be honest. I had my eye on a few little makeup sets I had seen on cult beauty and beauty bay but apart from that I didn’t need much else. As I knew I would be buying lots in America.

Well I did have a nice big surprise, my boyfriend surprised me with this amazing makeup themed cake!! It’s insane and I’ve never seen anything like it. It had so much detail and you could tell a lot of work went into it. He said he told them exactly what he wanted down to the makeup that was on it, like the naked palettes and MAC Makeup., bless him. So cute!! I’m so glad he understands and supports my makeup addiction.

It’s crazy how much detail it had, the main cake was the Sephora shopping bag with all the makeup coming out, and then next to it had a MAC bag and ulta bag that was made out of rice krispies and the rest was all made out of fondant. The actual cake inside was chocolate brownie and it tasted absolutely amazing!! It literally melted in the mouth and was so soft! It was yummy!!

As you can imagine it went down a treat with my family and I cut bits off to give everyone which was devastating to do but I obviously I didn’t want to waste it.

I’ve got plenty of pictures to look back on luckily.

I got some mini makeup sets that I really wanted including the Huda nude love set, the cover fx illuminating set and a few Sephora favourites sets that I didn’t even ask for  but was so pleased with them as I love the Sephora sets, they’re such good value.

 

lashstash set

The lash stash mascara set is one of my favourites, and I always pick it up when it comes out. It’s such good value and the perfect way to try out lots of different mascaras. They normally have a bigger one then this but this has 5 different mascaras and also a voucher which you can take into Sephora and exchange for a full size mascara of your choice. Which I thought was fab! Not sure what one I’m going to get yet  as I love tarte, benefit and too faced mascaras.

 

sephora favourites nude lip set

This give me some nude lip set is perfect and so me, as I love my nudes! Again this is great for trying lots of different brands. And is really good value as it comes with one full size lipstick! I love all the shades in this set and they’re perfect for putting in my makeup bag or handbag for on the go and touch ups etc.

 

huda beauty mini liquid lipsticks

 

The Huda beauty mini nude love collection set, I have tried the Huda liquid lipsticks before and I wasn’t a huge fan if I’m completely honest but I did really want these as I loved the shade range! And I thought I would give them a second chance. Again these are perfect for Travel and on the go.

 

cover fx illuminating set

The cover fx illuminating setting spray is my favourite, it’s so good and really does give you an illuminated and dewy finish but I really wanted to try the illuminating primer and the highlighters so these set was perfect. They also have a matte set as well.  I’ve tried the highlighter and primer out already and I will definitely be picking up the full size!!

I got a few other litle bits and some money to get myself some dollars, so I will treat myself when I’m in america, definitely a trip to Sephora ha ha!!

 

If you would like to know where my cake was made it was by foxy cakes

They did such an amazing job and no doubt we will be using them again in the future.

 

I love reading other people’s posts on what they got for birthdays and christmas etc so I hope you enjoyed mine. And I just had to share this cake with you all.

Thanks for reading

My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmati My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmatian print wrapping paper 😭 this could have been my present alone and I would have been thrilled! Love how it goes with my Dalmatian baubles 🤩 he knows me so well 🎁 🖤and it’s completely recyclable 👌🏼♻️
Just the presents to put under the tree, the annua Just the presents to put under the tree, the annual Christmas Eve clean up, set up the Christmas Day table and get myself sorted and pampered and we are all ready!! Can’t wait to just chill for a few days as Christmas always goes so quick doesn’t it. I Hope you all have a lovely Christmas whatever it is you will be doing 🎄 🎅🏻🤶🏻 🎁 🍾🥂 here’s some pictures of my tree with the lights on, it’s weird as these lights I got from the range look different each time I turn them on 🙈 I think I prefer my old ones from last year to be honest👀
I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads fo I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads for a while now as we wanted something new for the new additions we have. I got Elliott’s old ones from America and I just hadn’t seen anything I really loved until I came across @popandtedthreads and I fell in love with their whole range, especially the made to order personalised ones where you can pick your own fabric, trim and hardware colours.  Of course I just had to have this monochrome Dalmatian print fabric😍🤩 I can’t believe they’re completely hand made, I’m so impressed with the quality and finish.  You can tell a lot of hard work and love goes into these so thank you @popandtedthreads my little pups are going to love their new stuff for Christmas and will look so cute!! Thought I would share incase anyone else was looking for really unique dog accessories 🖤
I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath this year and add some bits to it but I just haven’t had the time, not even put up half of my Christmas decorations that I wanted to. 😭 So I just added some more snow and glitter to this and have made do 🙈 honesty where has this year and month gone...it’s flown by and I’m not ready for Christmas in the slightest, got to finish my shopping tomorrow and wrap everything, do the food shop and have a good clean up in the house! Oh take me back to being a kid and being excited for Christmas ha ha! 🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄
Another job ticked off the list and one step close Another job ticked off the list and one step closer to finally finishing everything in the kitchen yay. 😊 I really wanted an antique mirror cooker splash back, it’s the reason I didn’t go for tiles in here and went for up-stands instead as I didn’t want it looking OTT and I definitely think less is more in the kitchen. This white antique glass was specially made and took about 6-8 weeks but I love it. 🤩You can really see the antique detailing up close (swipe for pic) although we have had some slight issues with the measurements on the boxing in area around the island which we also wanted in glass. A little disappointing, so that’s got to be sorted out but I’m hoping it will be done before Christmas 🤞🏻
I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feel I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feels so cosy 🎄✨I’m surprised I’ve got any chocolates and sweets left on my tables though, because my niece keeps trying to eat them all when she comes over 😂
Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pret Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pretty much showed it on my Instagram stories🙊swipe for lots more up close pics....it’s a bit of a weird one this year, as I’m not feeling Christmassy in the slightest yet, this tree and all the decorations were supposed to be for the new kitchen but that plan has gone out the window thanks to the two new puppies that have taken over my kitchen. So I’ve used all these bits for the living room instead. Sorry for my lack of posts,  I’ve got a hell of a lot going on and I’m still not 100% myself. Details below •Christmas tree 🎄 -  is the snowy alpine 6ft from @christmastreeworld and I am obsessed! It’s so gorgeous and full looking! •All the flowers and sprays - from @tonyalmondonline ( my best find this year for amazing affordable decorations) •other decorations from @therangeuk and my local garden centres @longacresbagshot & @oaktreegardencentre •made the Dalmatian baubles myself it was so easy •stocking holders @homesense_ukie and the fluffy stockings are from @ebay_uk
Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about this when I posted it on my stories over the weekend🙈 I literally just wanted something to store all my hair styling tools so they didn’t look all messy and tangled. I ended up on eBay and found and ordered these wall mounted holders...I didn’t even know they did special dyson hairdryer holders but I had to have one! I sprayed mine gold (obviously) because I didn’t want them black or silver and attached them to the side of my Ikea Alex unit and I’m so pleased with how it looks ☺️ These GHDs are also yearsssss old but some how still work perfectly and I can’t part with them because they’re a gorgeous gold! 😭
Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve always wanted a proper dressing area, somewhere I can get ready and have all my clothes and accessories to hand. Before I was going in 2/3 rooms just to find bits, as I had it all scattered around 🙈 So pleased I went with the ikea corner pax wardrobe and got very excited over the pull out tray for my jewellery and accessories. (It’s the little things)...I don’t need no fancy pretty hammonds wardrobe....Ikea will do me nicely 😂 My bags won’t be staying like this either as I need to get another shelf next time I go to Ikea. I originally thought I needed more rail space but turns out I don’t, I think I just liked the idea of these pull out rails 🤨
I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you watch my stories you would have seen) So I now have the bigger spare bedroom for my beauty and dressing area yay! And I’m so pleased with it. 😍 I’ve got so much more room now and I had a good sort out and declutter while I was at it, and no more buying makeup I don’t need✋🏻 the Dalmatian spots won’t be going back on the wall but I’ve got use for them somewhere else 👀 I love Dalmatian print but I thought with my new Dalmatian rug it was a little over kill 😂
Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next fo Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next for the living room...didn’t like how they looked in here for some reason, as preferred my other ones🙈 so these are now on the sofa in John’s gaming room 😂 I’m wondering if he will notice that my dalmatian print obsession will slowly be taking over in that room too 👀🙊
I love me some gold and spotty print office statio I love me some gold and spotty print office stationery!! America have the best stuff, which I’m sorry to say is where most of this is from but I often see gorgeous bits in tkmaxx and Homesense. Now my desk is all clean and tidy I must get back to actually blogging and doing some work 👀✍🏻👩🏼‍💻
Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pamp Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pampas before. 😍 Absolutely love @foxglove.studio / @foxglove.studiothekiosk for their amazing selection of dried flowers and the service is always brilliant. These are like a grey/ silver tone and are absolutely beautiful and so fluffy. I’m hoping their  website is up and running soon so I can browse and buy lots more 👀🤞🏻plus so many people keep asking me where all my dried flowers are from 🌾🌾
So happy I got these over the sofa side tables. I’ve had my eye on these for a while now and found them in my local tk maxx and they weren’t damaged for a change so I had to get them. They make the perfect side tables when you don’t have much room. 🖤
