Most of you will probably know of the lovely beauty named Zoella, and she recently released her own range called 'Zoella Beauty', and I think I'm a tiny bit obsessed with this makeup bag oh my.
The only point in this post is to show you the makeup bag, which is my current one and probably will be for quite a while, it's just gorgeous. The size is perfect, it's not too big and not too small, it's a washable material, the colours are super pretty and the design on it is just, wow.

Sorry for the not so great pictures today, I currently can't locate my camera battery, but I'll find it soon I promise. Anyway, these are just some random favourites of mine, I feel like it's too late for me to do my October beauty favourites now, but I'll do my November ones when the time comes around!

The other day my Mum decided to take me and my friend Jess to the cinema to go see the film 'Love, Rosie'. I saw the film trailer a while back, and although I couldn't remember much about it, I remembered that it looked good. I can honestly say that this film is now one of my favourite films ever. The main appeal this film had, is that the two main characters are played by 2 of my favourite actors, Lily Collins and Sam Claflin, and can I just say that their acting in this film was on point. I really felt the chemistry between them, and my god did I feel a LOT in this film.
There was not a moment when I wasn't either crying with laughter or crying with how emotional I was, it was absolutely full of moments which caused either one or the other. It definitely does fit the whole romantic comedy theme, I find a lot of romcoms lean more on the romantic side than the comedy side, however this film created the perfect balance between the two, which is one of the reasons I've added it to my favourites.
I'd definitely recommend you see this, however do take some tissues with you, you will need them. I'm not sure if it's still on cinema anymore, but you should definitely add it to your list to see when you can, you won't regret it at all. Overall it was a great film and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even my Nan, who isn't the biggest fan of romcoms absolutely loved it, and to me that's saying something.

One of my favourite times of the year is soon approaching, and no I'm not talking about Christmas, I'm talking about Halloween! I don't tend to actually make an effort with dressing up for Halloween normally, I'm broke and lazy, but this year I'm really feeling like having a go.
A few nights ago I was sitting in my room on my laptop, not really doing anything, and I decided to set myself the challenge of making a dead Halloween makeup look out of only makeup I already own, which can I say isn't much!
This is what I ended up coming up with, and yes I'm aware it's not the best makeup look you've seen, but considering what I had to work with I think I did pretty well! Life's hard when you have 5 year old fake blood and eyeshadows that you got for your 12th birthday, but hey, they're great for practising with!

Now when I think of Victoria's Secret, I think of skinny girls and pretty but overpriced underwear, so when I went into their shop in Bluewater I wasn't expecting much. However, when moving myself towards the back of the shop, I found their fragrances and their body washes and etc, and boy was I surprised at how cheap they were in comparison to the rest of the shop.
I picked up this fragrance and fell in love instantly. It's rather soft and sweet, if you like girly things then I can imagine this being up your street, I also picked up a perfume and bodywash with the same scent, I think they were along the lines of £12 ish each or 3 for £20/£25, so I went for the 3 deal as it worked out a lot cheaper.
I brought this around 2 months ago and as you can see I've barely used any of the bottle, even though I do use it daily.
This isn't exacty a review, it's just me sharing probably one of my best finds for a while.

So the other week I was invited to the Bloggers Festival in London by the beautiful Scarlett, and it was the first type of blog event I'd been to and can I just say it was AMAZING. It was super nice to meet so many bloggers and companies, and to get to talk to all these different people. I'd also like to give a huge thank you to Cat and Tania for keeping me company for the day, they were so lovely and helped make me feel comfortable. This post is going to be rather long so I apologize in advance, but I took a fair few photos and I wanted to include them all!

Hey guys, so recently the fabulous french company La Redoute got in touch with me and asked me join them with their 'Language of Love' campaign, and this post is a tad late done due to the fact that I've been super busy, but I couldn't say no. I don't think we tell people quite enough that we love them, I love you, 3 simple words that mean so much, yet not many of us share them.
A survey came back showing that 82% of us would love to hear those words every single day, when in fact only a tiny amount of 30% of us say it that often. I personally didn't realize the number's were so small, and it makes me kind of sad. There's a lot of people I love in my life, and they all mean to the world to me. My Mum, my Dad, my friends, my siblings and my Grandparents, and I think we should all show the love more, after all, those 3 simple words can make someones day. So next time you're with someone you love, or talking to someone who means a lot to you, just tell them how much you love them, it only takes a single minute yet will warm their heart.
I personally loved the idea of this campaign, we Brits definitely need to share the love more than we do. Down below I've linked the #LanguageofLove campaign video and I'd really recommend you watch it, it may or may not have brought a tear to my eye.
You can find the website for the campaign here, and don't forget, tell someone you love them today.
Love Isabelle

If you've been hanging round the bloggersphere for a while now then you may have heard about this product, but if you haven't then it is wonderful. This is the first cleansing water I've tried, as it was only just under £4 in boots for a rather big bottle, it claims that you can get 200 odd uses out of it, but I'd say that that's maybe pushing it a bit far, however it does last an awful long time and you do only need to use small amounts.
This product is a godsend for removing makeup, I often struggle to take my eyeliner off, especially as I wear so much, but this takes it off perfectly. I just put a dab on a cotton pad, place it over my eye, gently press for a few seconds and remove it and bam, the majority of its gone.
It does leave my face feeling nice and refreshed, it's fit perfectly into both my morning and night time routines and I love it dearly. It doesn't smell of much which I quite like, it'd be horrible for it to have an overpowering smell. It's not a 'works wonders for your skin' product, so if you're looking for something like that then this might not be for you, but it's great for the simple things and for such a cheap price I really can't flaw it.
