Hello, its me.....

 

Hello there to any one reading this :) 

So here I am creating a new space on the internet and writing *hopefully* more than ever. I have missed blogging as writing and talking to new people about new experiences or maybe the things that have happened to me. 

This is my fresh start, a new leaf out the old book. So I am going to tell you a little about me.

So again HELLO!!

My name is Chelsea Louise Doe, I am 26 years old and I live in Essex *woooo* not all great as it is made out to be, believe me.

I work as a receptionist in a sports center part time and well that's all for me right now. I have so much free time on my hands which is why I got back to this. I also want to try and make some videos for youtube, but that's a story for a different day.

Some random facts about me

1.  Snow is my favorite weather. Fresh and untouched snow :) Makes me so happy.

2. In 2006 I auditioned for the role of Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter and in 2010 I auditioned for the X Factor. Yes that was the same year as One Direction, missed out on that one.

3. I have 6 tattoos and 7 Piercings

4.  I LOVE Christmas. I am thee biggest child when it comes to it. I miss it already :(

5.Brighton is my favorite place in the UK

I plan to make this site about me, what I like and what I don't. Things that have happened to me, the good and the bad.

Beauty and fashion I will attempt but please be warned I am not the best, but I try my hardest. Lifestyle.... This for me will be a big part for me as I am currently working my bum off on trying to change me and my motivation.  I want to be the fittest and the healthiest I have ever been. So I will be posting updates. This is the biggest challenge for me and I want to share my journey and hopefully inspire others.

I want this to be a fun place and I want to get my youtube up and running along side this so you guys, again if anyone is reading this, can see me and get to know me. Also, for me to look back on future references.

Okay I am going blabbering on now

Please follow me on here and my other social networks if you want too.

Byeeee for now

September/Autumn

Summer is finally over, well near enough over and I can not be happier. The months approaching are my favourite. The amount of times I have moaned to my parents about having me in spring is well into the hundreds but nothing we can do about that now.

 Pumpkin season

Conkers (which remind me of being a kid, conker fight anyone?)

Snuggling in front of the fire

Hot chocolate,Marshmallows and Cream 

Weather change

 HALLOWEEN

 Knitwear

 Dark lipsticks 

 Candles

 The fact Christmas is just around the corner 

X factor returns along with other well known and favourite shows

 Fluffy socks

Darker evenings

Horror films 

Back to school/college/university (yes I was one of those kids that actually wanted to go back to school)

I probably could go on all day here but I think I will leave it there, you get the idea to where I was going with it. This time of the year just makes me all warm and fuzzy which I know many people will disagree as they are all Summer people. But I have never been a summer person.

Okay, so lets talk about summer. I know I have not really posted all summer and for someone that doesn't like it you would of thought I would of blogged more. But I actually went out and enjoyed the summer. Cam honestly say I have done so much the past 3 months and enjoyed being out and about with my friends. So I thought I would simply back away from the laptop and just enjoy life.

But again I am back and looking forward to blogging my life away again,  getting excited for all things Autumn as I know I have a lot planned. Well, like I have said this time of the year I am at my happiest.

First Impressions Of Zoella beauty

I have been a fan of Zoella for quite a few years now so when she was working on secret projects I was always keen on what this may be. Lets face it there was a big stink on her book. Which I own but still struggle to get into. Is this just me? 
When it was announced that it was a beauty range I was a little bit excited as you can imagine what the products were to smell like just by reading her blog or watching her video's.

Quick re-cap for people 

*Blissful Mistful 

*Creamy Dreamy Body Lotion

*Fizz Bar

*Soak Opera Bath Soak/Shower Gel

*2 Different make up bags 

*Let's Glow candle

 Now I can honestly say I only bought two products from the first range which were the candle and the body mist. I LOVED the candle it was nice and fresh smelly perfect for them cold winter nights. The body mist is nice but not something I would wear day in day out. I mean don't get me wrong it is a lovely smell but not for me. I do think maybe this was aimed at the younger/teenage girl rather than the then 24 year old *which is weird as me and Zoe are the same age* The candle has long gone... so are candle's two and three but the body mist is still sitting on my perfume shelve.

Fast forward to July 2015 and there is a new range of Zoella beauty the 'Tutti Fruity Range'  Everyone has yet again gone Zoella mad again but I was lucky enough to find a few product left in my local Superdrug store. Although I am quite sad that there isn't a new candle *yes I am obsessed with candles* the new products that have been introduced are quite exciting.

Tutti Fruity Range

*Fresh Fizz Bath Bar

*Candy Cream Body Lotion 

*Foam Sweet Foam Shower Gel

*Lets Spritz Body Mist

*Scrubbing Me Softly Body Scrub **NEW**

*Kissy Missy Lip Balm **NEW**

*Zoella Cosmetic Purse **NEW**

As I wasn't the best lover of the original range smell I was that crazy person sniffing all the products in the shop. That was a picture and a half if I do say myself.

See I watched Zoe's video where she introduced the new products and I have watched MegSays reaction video and both of them were in love the smell *Zoe may be a bit biased* so I was a little more excited this time round. See I am more of a fruity smelling person. 

Now this my be me but I couldn't smell anything when I opened the package. I never got this amazing whiff of smell so with that I was disappointed. Even so I knew I had to give something a go so I choose the 'Scrubbing Me Softly' and 'Candy Cream'. By the way the packaging of this range is BEAUTIFUL I LOVE the colours and the designs so much more than the original.

So when I got home I was still opening and closing the lids of the products I bought still waiting for this amazing smell that everyone has been raving about. But nope nothing :( So I took a bath. Yep I took a bath just so I can use these products and the fact that I do love a nice long hot bath when I finish work *6am starts are a killer*  

THEN.... when I was using the scrub did it hit me the most amazing smell I have used *swoons* it actually is A-MAZE-ING its so summery, fresh and fruity. Three things that I do love in a bath product. 

The lotion was exactly the same. Once I started using them and rubbing them in the scent was getting stronger. I literally am in love with these two right now. I LOVE soap and Glory body scrubs normally as they are fresh smelling and I know they work. Leaving my skin smelling beautiful. Which is exactly what Zoe's are doing to me. I could smell the scent for hours after using them. Which makes me happy as I know I smell good. So good the bees and wasp's are going to chase me. This is not a good thing as we have a wasp nest right outside our house.... *Off topic Chelsea* 

Anyway, I would recommend these two products to anyone that loves fresh,fruity smells. That smell of Summer which we all love * I don't but I am making an exception this year* 

The scrub cost £7 pounds if I remember correctly and the body lotion was £5 which compared to Soap and Glory is a Bargain.

Thanks for reading

YSL Babydoll lipstick/blush

I had been eyeing up this lipstick/blush for quite some time. By that I mean about 3 months. I am addicted to the site feelunique, I probably visit the site every day even when I don't have any more I am fully aware I have a problem. When it first caught my eye I feel in love but I didn't feel right spending £28.50 on it. I have bought MAC lipsticks for £15 but I think that is my limit, even that is a bit much but sometimes you have to pay that extra bit for a good quality, something that is going to last longer on the lips.

I adore this this lipstick and I am already thinking of purchasing another one in a different colour just so I know I have one for every occasion.. Yes I may have to puchase a couple more but it is worth it. I would recommend to all my friends and family. That includes all you beauty bloggers out there.
I have number number 3 Rose Libre. It comes in the same packaging as all the other YSL lipsticks and the actual lipstick itself is still the same gold just the the pot is different to the norm.
I would say it stays on your lips for most of the day but like most lip products wears off when drinking or just doing your everyday thing. But the shade is still on your lips just needs a little top up.t doesn't leave the nasty lipstick ring around the edges of your lips either. Which I know many of us girls can relate :)
Lipstick/gloss can sometimes feel like the biggest chore to keep looking nice and fresh all day long so we look for something that is long lasting not just pretty anymore. This certainly does it for me and I will be using on them evenings that are special. It has to be them nights for me with the price that this costs.

Thanks for reading guys 

Please let me know if you own one or even thinking about getting one :)

Can a girl ask a guy out?

I am quite traditional kind of girl and I like being that way BUT there is something I am questioning. Something that has been playing on my mind and that's the whole "Can a girl ask a guy out" or even Can a girl just walk up to a guy and give him her number? 

Many of my friends think I should just bite the bullet and do it. What is to loose they say? My answer he may say "No thanks!" or worse shoot me down there and then. ULTIMATE CRINGE!!

 So there is this guy that is a regular in my work place and I may have had a little tiny *MASSIVE* crush, oh god do people even use that word any more :/ I keep wanting to talk to him and give him my number but little old me has no faith my myself, let alone any confident to do so.
The other thing that has held me back is that EVERYONE in my work place knows and I knows what I am like *cue old post BLUSHING AND FLUSHING* I have no control over it when I am talking to someone I really and I mean REALLY fancy. I know this is said to be cute *quote by a guy friend of mine* but is it though... I mean I wouldn't really have to say anything as my face clearly would do the talking.

But then again am I just blushing and flushing because everyone I work with knows and is watching intensley? I honestly don't know what to do or handle the situation. I really don't want to come across desperate and needed. Any guys out there reading my blog want to lend there opinion on this would very appreciated :D Not that I don't trust my friend just you never know if he just said that because we are friends. 

Now call me a loser but I have watched YouTube videos on this and read articles and everything seems quite 50/50 which is stupid and not the answer I need right now. I clearly need to get better at flirting and being a girl. Everyone else has it easy in my eyes. Actually I have had it easy as guys have just come to me before *that's not me being all big headed* I have never been the ask-ee and I give it to the guys that pluck up the courage to walk up to a girl, sometimes not even knowing her just meeting across a bar or a coffee shop an talking to her and getting her number. Like, that is some scary stuff and us girls expect you to do it now. That's just how its goes. In the films maybe. Oh Man, why is my life not like a Disney film or one of them Rom-Com's the girl always gets the guy and 9/10 times its the guy that makes the effort. With the girl being super pretty, smart and flirty. 
Where are my flirty skills? I really feel like I have lucked out of things *I blame my parents* 

So do I stick with tradition and try my hand at some flirting techniques away from the eyes of EVERYONE or do I just grow some *female* balls and just walk up to him and give him my number * maybe run away after* I am joking!

HELP!!!!!

Thanks for reading and please leave some comments on your opinions on this as I am really in a little pickle :(

Beauty Con London

I recently went to BeautyCon London. It was a lovely day out with my friend and we bought make up which made the day 10 times better as we are both a bit of make up junkies.
It was in a weird looking building that reminded me a bit of an empty warehouse as even though it was decorated with Beauty Con banners and balloons still looked a bit empty. Not the location I was quite thinking of but then again I don't really know what I was thinking it was to look like.
There was SO many people there, 100's in fact and I think that if the YouTuber's werent there most of them wouldn't be there. Now I am not saying that to be mean. But in my honest opinion they could of done so much more there. More make up stands, more crazy photo booths so there wasn't an hour's wait for the ONE that was there. Even more seats so people could listen and watch the beauty panel's. 
Don't get me wrong I loved being there and had a wonderful day I mean what more could a girl ask for playing with make up and listening to her favourite youtuber's talk beauty and spending the day with my friend.
I sadly didn't get to meet any one I would of liked to as the queue's were CRAAAAZY long and I am not a fan of queuing :( but I did get some replies from my favourites on twitter :D 


But here are a few pictures I took from the day...

So I thought I would list a few of my favourite YouTubers here well the ones that were there.

*Fleur De Force 

*Tess Christine 

*Niomi Smart

*Suzie Hello October 

*BeautyCrush 

Guess who's back... With a YouTube video

Hello guys!!

I am back after my little break from all things blogging. I had a serious case of writers block which left me feeling so blah about everything. 
But I think I may be over that. I have written a lot over the last couple of days or so about everyday things *not for blogging i'm afraid* but it really made me realise that I miss this little space on the internet.

Anyway as it is the 1st of the month I thought I would share a little Vlog that I made last month at my bosses wedding reception. I was there with a few of my work pals and YES I was drunk but so was everyone else so it makes it a bit more bearable to watch. I don't regret anything I just think it is one of the funniest things I have seen for a while and I am proud of myself for picking up the camera and shoving it in everyone's faces. May I also add these guys are so supportive of me blogging and vlogging that they do not mind it makes it so much more fun this way.

So here it is my first video on youtube... ENJOY!!!
P.S it would mean the world to me if you can subscribe. I really enjoyed making this one even editing it that I will be making some more on a regular basis I think :) 

Thanks Chelsea XOXO
