Benefit Roller Lash Review!

Hello everyone! Today I've got a review for Benefit's brand new mascara called Roller Lash! As of the moment it hasn't actually been released, but in Elle magazine there was a little sample of the mascara which was so popular this month because of it! So I thought that I would buy the magazine purely to get that!I wanted to try it out because They're Real has always been my fave mascara and I thought nothing could beat it, until this...

Here is what the packaging and the product look like. Sorry that the picture quality isn't that great! I think the packaging is really nice, I love the colours of it! It looks so classy. Benefit are always number 1 with the best packaging literally!

These are some of the things people rated about the macara and I would agree with all of them, my lashes look so much more lifted when using it, the curl definitely lasts and my eyes look so much more wide open and bigger, I honestly prefer this mascara over They're Real because I also think it gives the same lengthening as They're Real does, which then the curl is an extra bonus.

Here are a few photos of the wand. It's like a curved wand, is that how to describe it? I think the shape of it is really great for the curling of your lashes, it works so well! It's similar to the new Maybelline mascara?!  Because of the curve on the wand, it works great to grab each lash and make your lashes look so much fuller and more separated. They're Real really clumped my clashes unlike this one.

Overall, I'm really impressed with this product, I use it every single day in my make up routine and I will definitely buy the full size product when it's released.

Tanya Burr Book Signing!

Hey everyone!

So today I went to Tanya Burr's book signing for her new book she has recently brought out called Love, Tanya! It was in Leeds which is only about 20 minutes away from me, so I definitely didn't want to miss this chance of meeting her. I was so nervous because I suffer with anxiety, knowing I had to queue for ages and if I started panicking I couldn't leave before I'd loose by place, but thankfully I managed to keep myself calm and keep my spot! I arrived at 11:30 and it started at 1pm, I eventually got my books signed at 1:45 which isn't quite bad!

When I finally got to the front and saw her the first thing she said to me was "Hi nice to meet you, how are you?!" she was honestly so nice and she asked every single person how they were! My mum went before me and told her she's an inspiration to me and other young girls who suffer from anxiety and that the pages in her book about anxiety and confidence really helped me. So she also asked if I've read those pages and I told her yes, she said they hope they have helped me. Which was so sweet of her! She also said she liked my flower headband which was pretty cute :) I only got about 10 seconds or even less to speak to her, I wish I could of had longer, nobody was even allowed to take selfies or even try! But because my mum went before me she got to the side and took a few while I was with Tanya, I'll include those photos before! Then before I left I just said to her Thank you and good luck with the wedding with Jim and she said "Aww thank you so much!" and smiled loads!

So I honestly think Tanya is a really lovely, genuine young woman! I'm really proud of how far she's come with herself over the years, it was definitely worth the wait to meet her!
Tanya is honestly a very inspiring person to me, I'm so thankful I got to meet her in person and not just through a screen.

Thank you for reading!
