Healthy eating?!

So recently I have started trying to eat healthier, so I wanted to share with you my three main meals & just what I got up to :)

For breakfast I had natural yogurt, with chopped nectarine, pomegranate seeds, cherries & tinned raspberries. This is my fave. Although, it is better with banana in.


Here is a quick outfit run down! I was feeling pretty girly today, haha.

Gracie (puppy) was being a little so & so, and kept running off so I had to hold her haha.
Dress - Primark - £10
Shoes - Primark - £10/12
Sunglasses - Newlook - £5.99

We popped into asda to pick up some bits for lunch & produced this amazingly tasty sandwich.

Contents - Bread ;) , cheese, mayo, sliced southern fried chicken, tomatoes & lettuce.

Then I attempted taking a selfie with Gracie.. 


Then we went to the beach while my dad 'babysat' Gracie.








Super healthy I know...





We accidentally had fish & cheesy chips for tea.. along with a very healthy curry sauce.. It was totally worth it though..

Eyeshadow Experimenting & Giveaway

Just a fun little post, with some images of my experimental eye shadow (none of which I would wear out). I'm also including a little giveaway; all you have to do is create an experimental make up look. You will be winning the MUA eye shadow palette in Dusk til Dawn (image below)
 an MUA lipstick and a nail polish, both inspired by the look you create. I chose this palette because it has both neutral colours to create natural looks and bright colours for more experimental looks. I have done a review of this palette on my channel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaKHit3lNro
To enter, subscribe to my YouTube channel ( https://www.youtube.com/user/rosieblindell ) and email me a picture of your make up look ( rosieblindell@gmail.com ) with the subject 'GIVEAWAY'. I will be choosing the winner, by how creative the make up look is.

The first look was made using the MUA poptastic palette, I wanted to create a bright, rainbow effect. 

The next look is kinda crazy and I went a bit over the top.. But it was super fun :). I can't remember what eyeshadows i used, but they're pretty simple blacks and greys.

This next one was inspired by Tanya Burr's recent arab inspired tutorial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL1PdbTmthc . I love the pop of colour, in a wearable look. I used the Urban Decay 15th Anniversary palette.

The next look is inspired by the Disney movie Frozen. To achieve this I used plenty of blues, along with some glitter, to create an icy effect. (this did not photograph well) 

The next one just didn't work with my camera. I used the MUA Dusk til Dawn (the winning palette) , to create a black and gold look.

I hope you have fun experimenting, good luck :) 
Let the competition begin ;)
