Things I've Been Loving And Using.

Hey guys, I just thought of sharing things I have been loving this month.Basically Make-up and Body wise,well I have got only one product for the body but I am thinking of doing a post Body wise.So yeah, let's get started!



1.




I'll start off with the one I like the most,like more than a lot.
 It is this cream from  Yves rocher . It's a Candied Orange & Cinnamon Hand Cream. Yeah, I know we are not in Winter here , but why not use it. It smells incredible! AND it also moisturizes the hand which is great for me as I have dry hands. It's also limited edition one, so you can grab one as it
is great value for money.


2.
Look at this Yves Rocher palette!

It's just cute! Well I've been using mostly the golden ones because the blue smoke is not a colour that I actually wear on my eyes. But yeah , I've been obsessed with the Bronze and Beige colour.
This is how it looks when I wear them.


 Firstly I've used the beige colour all over my eyelid.


 Then I've used the Bronze one on the outer eyelid and blended it in.




Taadaa,It's done.I'm not a make up professional , I like creating looks and playing with these colours.

3.
This is the Blue Smoke Kohl from Yves Rocher . I really love it as a kohl rather than the eyeshadow since it is more of a dark blue near to black.It applies well but I would have liked it more with a sharpener! But I still love it though.

4.
It is an eyeliner from Yves Rocher as well. I like it a lot and have been using it so much lately and it's on its last leg.I'll have to grab one soon.Its application lasts long and it is great value for money as well.

5.
Lastly ,it is a roller from Yves Rocher, similar here.
It smells nice and leaves you fresh.


Hope you've liked this  post.Please give the blog a follow and comment down below things that you've been loving!
Ciao!

Sugar Cookies

 A simple and easy to follow recipe to make sugar cookies, perfect and appropriate for any occasion.



                     COOKING TIME : 10 MINUTES                         DIFFICULTY : EASY!

YOU WILL NEED..                       

FOR THE COOKIES:                                                                                                      
-1 Cup Butter,Softened
-2/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
-1/2 Teaspoon Almond Extract
-2 Cups All -Purpose Flour
  
FOR THE ROYAL ICING:
-225g Icing Sugar
-1 Egg White
-Cold Water


DIRECTIONS

1.In a medium bowl beat butter on medium speed for about 30 seconds.Add the 2/3 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract.Beat until combined.Beat in as as much flour you can with the electric mixer and then using a  wooden spoon stir in any remaining flour.Cover and chill for 1 hour or until dough is easy to handle.

2.Preheat oven to 190 degrees.Spread some flour on the worktop and roll out the dough with a rolling pin.Using cookie cutters,cut out shapes and carefully put them on on a lined or greased cooking tray.Put the cookies into the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes until they are lightly golden brown.

3.Let them cool on the cooking tray for a minute and then carefully slide them on a cooling rack.While you want for them to completely cool down, make the icing.Using a mixer,mix together the icing sugar, egg white and add a teaspoon at a time of cold water if it feels to thick.Spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a thin nozzle, and pipe onto the completely cooled cookies.You can decorate with whatever you fancy.My decoration turned quite cool,lol.(joking,was bad at it)
