Random blog day : about me.

Hey everybody! I have been blogging for two weeks now and feel like nobody knows me. And i feel like, if i'm going to blog everyday. My blogreaders must know me, so i'm going to tell my whole life story(well not my whole life story obviously). So here we go.

When i was at primary school, i was bullied. At that time i was bit chubby, like i wasn't even like fat fat. And they said things like fatty, all the time. One time we were playing outside with our teacher and the boys made my friend say to: You are the ugliest person alive. They were that cruel. It started when i was in 4th grade("groep 4 "in dutch). Because in holland we go from 1st grade to 8th grade. And then you go to secondary school. And there you have from 1st to 4th grade. Anyway in forth grade i was known as the smart kid, and was starting to put on a little weight. And they were like hey fatty, your ugly, your no one, who is gonna like you? and they said no one. Like it broke me. I came home everyday crying. And when i was in 5th grade. I had a teacher who really liked me, like she loved me as her daughter. Anyway, my mother couldn't handle it, and talked to my teacher. And it stopped for a while. Because they were terrified of her. She was very strict. But then in 6th grade it started again. And it lasted till 8th grade.

So 8th grade was my last year at primary school. I was 11 going on to 12. I was so happy that i was going to leave that school behind me. I was able to make a fresh start at secundary school. And i did.  They were still cruel. But i had a best friend who i talked to everyday, and she was like don't listen to them. They are nothing. Ofcourse we had our fights, but we always couldn't stay mad at each other for a long time. It was like one week we were fighting and the other we were best friends again. So i kinda graduated from that school in 4th grade. I had my diploma. That was two years ago.

Now i'm at high school(ROC in holland). And completely changed. I'm more of myself, not afraid to share my opinion and although i'm not skinniest person alive i feel good about myself. And very happy with the course i'm following. Wooh, that really had to get out of me. I feel even more great now. Thank you for reading my story and i'll blog ya tomorrow. AND A HAPPY HALLOWEEN !!

It's halloween Tomorrow !

Well, like the title says and y'all know it. Tomorrow is halloween! I'm so sorry i didn't do an halloween look. I didn't do it because i just didn't know what to be and it hasn't been requested. So i decided not to do it. But don't worry next year there will be one. There will be lots more..

And since halloween isn't celebrated here in holland. I want to know that you are going to be? I'm curious hihi.

BTW have you heard the new album of Taylor Swift speak now? It is so good! I'm not gonna say, you have to listen. But once you've heard you'll fall in love. How did i get from halloween to Taylor swift? Anyway that was off topic.

That was my blog for today! I'll blog ya tomorrow.

Well, since i promised you guys an random blog. Why not talk about fashion instead? Haha, but i think you've heard this. Because it's been all over blogs, newspapers, twitter and stuff. But next year Forever 21 is bringing three stores to Holland. In the city's Amsterdam, Den Haag and possibly Rotterdam.

I'm so excited because i've been wanting to order from the forever 21 website for so long. But i do not have an creditcard, because i'm only 17.

It's random blog day !

Hey everyone! I don't know of it's sunday already where you live, but here in Holland it's already sunday and it's like 12.30 pm in the afternoon. So i decided that sunday i'm not gonna blog about make-up or anything. So it's random blog day !

So y'all know as a student you have a busy, busy life. Especially when you have homework and stuff, and when i come home. Literally the first thing i do, is go on my laptop to blog, check out other blogs and stuff.

But have you seen Grey's Anatomy lately. O my GOSH ! Seriously that's one of my favourite shows. I love, love, love that show. The latest episode that aired Thursday i think ( in the US). Meredith was like amazing in the latest episode. She totally rocked that surgery.

Anyway i'm positivly sure that i need a new camera. Like i've said hundred times to myself, when you get your wage. Your going to get a new camera. But no, untill now i didn't do that. I keep spending my money on make-up, skincare, clothes and other things. Like i'm only 17, so i don't have to pay insurance and stuff till my 18th birthday. Anyhow, does anyone know a great quality camera, but not to expensive? Please comment me if you know any.

I hope i didn't bore y'all and you enjoyed reading my blog. I'll blog ya later. Bye!

Wearable red lips for daytime

Thought you couldn't wear red lips during daytime? Well, now you can !
All you have to do is buy a red lipstick, a brown lipgloss and a red lipliner.

So start with lining your lips with a red lipliner. And fill them in completely. I am using the catrice lipdesigner in 010 ruby red. And any lipliner that is a budget price will do(i'm a big fan of budget prizes, haha!)


Then you go over your lips with a red lipstick, i'm using the catrice rouge satin lipstick in 060 spanish red.

So as a last step, take a lipgloss and go over it. I used a MAC lustreglass in Beaux a86(finally not a budget brand). Go over you lips with the lipgloss like 3 times. It will make it less dramatic. And give you glossy lips.



And this is how the look completely looks !



Hope you enjoyed. And i'll blog ya later!


Ps: i know that the quality of my camera isn't the greatest. In a month i will get a  better camera. Sorry for the incovenience you guys!

Venus peeling review

So like two weeks ago, i went shopping. And ofcourse i couldn't let the store Douglas pass. For those of you who wanna know, it's a dutch high-end store in cosmectics. They sell brands from venus to chanel.



Anyway i saw this peeling, wich was only 5,95. And i thought why not?
So i tried it out. And ... i'm very happy with this peeling ! And for that price.
It's cheap, pretty, and it cleanses and makes your skin very soft. However i do not recommend using it every, because it has those tiny litlle thingies that are kind of like an scrub. And if you use it everyday it's gonna scrub all the good things of your face,  and it does not feel nice, it does not look good. If you like not live in Holland but in the USA, go to target, wal-mart, sephora and find a peeling that works for you. Trust me, they have cheaper ones.

Like one time i exfoliated my face everyday. And believe it dries it out your skin so badly. Anyhow. I hope you enjoyed reading my blog. And i'll blog y'all later !



PS: I made a picture of it, but it so unclear. Sorry .
