complete everyday look with just 7 products

collab with hana you can find her at http://www.hanasblog.com/blogger-collaboration-challenge-full-face-makeup-7-products/ ps her website is amazing! check her out xx

Hi soapies, first off check out my veleza account as dbg inkeds computer will not upload pictures !! not very happy with it! so as soon as it will there will be loads of pictures to follow. secondly my laptop has decided to just become a black screen so sadly I have not blogged for a while and I apologise for that and thirdly I have had personal problems including problems revolving my job and I have not been in the right head space to blog but that is going to change from now on! xx

 Today is a collab with Hana so be sure to check her post out too !! Here's 7 ( which was hard to choice as I use a couple more items ) products I use for my everyday look.

1. Smash box photofinish foundation primer - this product smooths my skin and makes my foundation last for a long time. Despite me feeling it's a great product it has a negative it states it's oil free - this really drew me in however to me it feels greasy and meh on me . Anyone else have that? It can cost quite a lot too however on the plane back from Iceland I got a little bargain hehehe ! 
2. Revlon photoready perfecting primer - I have only used this item for two weeks so I'm no expertise on this one however I feel already it's made my skin softer feeling and as stated by my partner dbg inked I feel like a squirrel ... take it that means soft and is a compliment ! It's a small glass bottle and is only 27 ml but it's so worth it ! I am very impressed with this bottle of joy. 

3. Mac mineralize moisture spf 15- I got this product free from a friend ( what an awesome friend ay 😉) I have been ready reviews and sadly people don't like this item however I love this foundation . It's made my skin brighter and as I'm as pale as a vampire this is the first foundation that actually looks right for me ! It is however expensive and therefore I'm not sure if I could justify getting that product again well not for a while . It has great coverage and covers my moles something that I was always picked on as a child and always has made me want too cover up . It gives a lovely glow and blends perfectly . I can put it on and where it all day . Ps there's no strong fragrance !

4. I ❤️ make up hearts in share golden goddess - I can't find any reviews on here so here's my little review it's got a gorgeous glow and is easy to apply . Suits all skin tones and is my favourite highlighter ! 

5. Soap and glory love at first blush - just wow ! Simply describes it ... this little kit is 75g of pure magic . The box is round and easy to travel with and it has a range of stunning bright colours . Also with a little mirror it's perfect for applying in a rush. Ps use the real techniques buffing brush for a great looking blush. 
6. Soap and glorys sexy motherpucker in Pom Pom - this is my lipstick of the month ! It suits me and my skin tone ( remember I have pale vampire skin or something from izombie )and is creamy , easy to apply and most importantly lasts all day. The packaging is sleek and the finish is simply amazing . You need to try this lipstick ! 
And finally ... 
7. Naked 2 urban decay palette - I had heard of this for ages so last year in Debenhams in Bristol with a very bored George I bought this palette. Well actually he did for me ! The colours are great and the packaging is stylish and trendy. Despite the price tag of £25 I really do think you should try it. It's worth every penny and for me I use it most days so definitely worth the money . 

So that's it soapies ... comment if you love this post or want too know more and tell me  your thoughts plus if there's anything you suggest I buy and review . Thanks for reading and remember to check out Hana and her post ! Speak soon , love you all lots

sleepy sundays- new product of the week!

s'up soapies! (trying something new!),

How has your week been... okay if normal or bad is the answer forget about it and just relax for a little bit.
I have a new product I adoreee! Its currently £3 in some supermarkets. Not gonna lie I saw the packaging and decided to get it because of the packaging.. I know thats terrible! but hey I did good. This product is the new fine flowers gel-cream wash by l'oreal. L'oreal itself has always stood out as a good brand that is advertised so much you just know its popular however I have honestly not ever (I do not think so ) ever used their skincare products.

The 150ml bottle has a gorgeous pink packaging which gives the product a great luxury look. Once the bottle has been opened it has a 12 month lifespan (perfect if your like me and forget to use all the items you have!) The smell is rose and jasmine which I have to say is more like rose and is honestly the nicest smell. The gel is creamy and has the negative of unfortunately going every where. The product information is clear and the instructions of use is also clear on the product.

So far after 4 days of use my face feels smooth and has honestly helped my face as I often have a dry face at this time of year. Have you used this? or know anymore products comment below :) follow me on insta @soapsoso and on veleza @soapso . speak soon , love soap xox

thursday- Hamsters... are they cheap?

SO yoj all probs know of hedgy and knuckles my hamsters that are crazy. They are robo hamsters and are the smallest and by far fastest hamster. They are sadly also often the cheapest as they are only £7 each which is not much. cages vary in prices but the ideal one I have is a clear plastic topped one as like rats and other rodents they will get their finger stuck in the sides of the cages made out of metal. my cage cost £35 with a wheel and a water bottle. However the water bottles cost 1.50 on their own and they will need to be replaced at least once a year and the wheels easily break so it is important you buy one every year as you do not want a squashed hamster!

During winter getting coconut bedding provides more warmth and at £4 is a nice christmas present plus you can watch them become architects and create some weird designs. Bedding you must watch as some hamsters are allergic to their bedding. Mine costs £3 and is a small bag that only lasts one home so thats about 3 weeks before you need another bag. hamster disinfectant- spay the house with this as its specially made not too hurt them and the house smells lush!!

toys- using toilet roll ( no toilet paper on it) is a easy toy and mine prefer it too the expensive toys. dwarf hamster do not fit alot of the standard toys such as I got therm a sea saw but they were too light for it haha.

They will need hay and will need a variety mix specially made for hamsters which all together will cost about £8.
These little fur balls look super cheap but like all animals they cost alot. spread this and make people aware that all animals have a cost. Animals are for life. can you provide them a life long home?

thanks for reading, soap xx

ps thanks for learning about us... hedgy and knuckles. this post has been read by knuckles and approved ... he is staring at me now xx

Tuesday Talks- Freezing cold day items

Sooooo cold? freezing?- this is how I am feeling this morning and if you are too then this little blog should maybe cheer you up? I hope, I mean I am no costa hot chocolate... great I am gonna need a hot choc in a minute!
                                Anyway....

Heres my few little happy accessories for that cold crisp day.

1. lipstick- On these days I dont feel very me so I always go for a pale colour. My go too and has been for like 2 years now is the gorgeous creamy kate moss by rimmel lighter lipsticks such as shade 08. Its long lasting and suits all skin tones. I really feel this lipstick should get more recognition I mean its such a sweet colour and this was my old work colour hence why in my insta pics theres not much left.

2. The brush- When your feeling cold the last thing you want is this super cold brush gliding over your face. Am I right? So my super fav brushes is the limited edition Berlin real techniques brushes.Not only are they super cool and glamourous but they glide welll on your face creating a warm glow... perfect for when your not feeling warm! you can purchase them on  vinted as they can be expensive however always watch for fakes and rememebr if your a student you get a discount in superdrug (insert winky face as my laptop has decided today it can not do emojis... like why?)

3.nail varnish- Today I am looking at my gliterry nails and contemplating going dark because outside is super dark. I have a lush essence nail varnish which is green and only cost 25p. However you do your nails are upto you but I paint them the colour of my mood.

4, BLUSH- I use a variety of blushes however my favourite is the avon blush with highlighter... Its a nice creamy colour and it adds so much light to the face that it makes you honestly look super happy even when the rest of you is not so happy.

5,the foundation- My foundation that I have loved since 3 years ago when I first started college is the rimmel wake me up foundation. However with this one be careful on the shades as it can be too dark or light depending on your skin tone. Definetely should try.

sooo now I have said this I should probs put my face on and do some housework speak soon soap xx

The cardigan is from gap and despite people thinking it's a little high priced pop in to any store in the months October , November , December and you will always get a bargain ! I got this for £4 and I have always grown up wearing gap I mean my old gap hoodie lasted me from the ages 7-14 😂 think I lived in it . The Prada bag was £15 because of a small stain and from my favourite app Vinted which you need too just look at !!!! Like asap ! Go on !!!

the new time table

HI HERE IS THE NEW!! TIME TABLE-

youtube vids- sleepy sundays

blogs - Mondays and wednesdays are main blog days

hope this helps,

soap xx

The sorry vid and Moving

Hey you!!

So if you have not noticed I did a vid today called the sorry vid. Its a big way of me apologising. I felt for you who read my blog you might want to know a bit of background on the video. I felt very different about myself when I have not done a youtube vid. I suppose I gained confidence and lots of good people followed me. I felt like I had let you all down and needed to show my apology more. I put animations in so I was not so waffly but also I felt my key thing was to be funny and show how much each person who views my vids or my blog has helped me become a way better person.

I have also moved into a home with DBG INKED and so I have been dealing with that and a broken toe. I love you all millions and thank you for the every single comment you have said.

your the best,

your soap xx

Make up monday- The new eyebrow helper

HEY !

So as I am a huge fan of vinted a while bag I bought a bundle and thought Id try the DIY BROW BAR by Soap and Glory. I have always heard amazing reviews but never tried anything from them. The box gives you the four simple instructions on how to apply and with what brush. Its simple to use and I believe is the best brow product to date I now own. It has a gorgeous circular mirror. The proucts them selves last for a full day with a wax,highlighter and two browns it will really brighten your face and is my must have accesory! For pics or a little chat on why I feel it make you stand out from the crowd comment below


Lots of love,

Sleepy Sunday- Edinburgh trip for my birthday!!

As requested and thank you for waiting for me to write it I have decided to write my review on my stay in Edinburgh Scotland with DBG INKED.... enjoy my soapies :)

Edinburgh is a great place to go for an adventure whether its to climb the steep ( when I say steep I mean I felt like I had no oxygen ) hill to the castle that overlooks the busy city to walking past the shops which brighten up the cold crisp calm days in Edinburgh.On Dbginked's and my adventure we stayed in a stay city apartment.... by far the best place I have probably stayed in the past couple years and it made the expeience amazing. Its  secure and roomy. You can have upto ten people in some apartments too and they are each very individual and lovely to stay in.The one in Edinburgh is only 20 minutes from the shops although there is a tesco near by and our favourite burger place ever called Burger. the full stop is at the end of the name haha. They do an amazing boozy milkshake which I still remember the taste of :(!!! wish I could still have it. The first day we visited Edinburgh zoo which walking took nearly an hour to get too but was worth it sooooo much!!! The animals are all happy and the keepers know the animals so much its worth the long walk. The tickets were fairly cheap for what you have there ( not gonna say anymore or I will spoil how amazing it is) The zoo made the trip complete. The last day was a look in the shops and a look round the castle however I felt the castle was overpriced for what you saw/ did there. We did have great views of the city which made it worth it. Edinburgh is full of history and DBG also loved Anime Republic there and yo suishi! which I now lovvvvee too except dont try japanese beer makes you really tipsy haha.... Hope you go to edinburgh and if you have been tell me what you like

 lots of love,

Make Up monday- Vinted

Hey all so today I thought why not answer a huge question how can you afford so mcuh make up.. the answer is vinted,


Vinted is an app and a website where you can buy and sell clothing, acccesories and of course make up.

How do I get it? - set up your name, email and password and away you go . you can buy many items and often sellers do bundles.



Thats what I love... bundles and I have purchased many lately soo I will hopefully do some videos on them. 


To find out more comment below and for any hints and tips pop it down below... lots of love....

Make Up Monday- Eye Liner

What was your day like today?...

Maybe one of these products could of helped with your day?

We all need to start somewhere with eye liners... we all have that one that reminds us of being young and trying something new.


The first eye liner I have to show is the They're real push up liner by benefit. The pen is built so the gel glides easily into place. Its a great product ... just needs about 20 steady hand goes at getting it right... then a poke in the eye and a accidental rub of the eye to ruin it.

This is the product I am trying to master and so far I managed a good flick on one eye.. I gave myself a smudged eye on the other side :(. The product I paid I believe £12 on a Thompson plane. You can purchse it from boots. I have never had benefit before but one of my sisters use it and I thought why not give benefit a try.


The next is my little handy go too.. the master precise maybleine new york liner. This was the product I used at secondary school and LOVE still as its easy use. Its like a pen it always provides good coverage and lasts long. You can purchase it from superdrug where you lucky students can get 10 percent off and some supermarkets too. I think if your a teen learning with this will help you and is easy too do when your in a rush. My last one without discount cost me £9 from superdrug.


What do use? Anything you want me to try?

speak soon,

Wild Wednesdays- Top Cheap nail varnish colours

 Hi my little soapies,

Todays little blog is a simple look at the product by colour. All these opinions are my own and at current I am not affilated with any of the companies mentioned... thats done so lets get to it.


In no particular order: Rimmel 60 seconds in a blue shade ... the shade colour has rubbed off.

This was from the rita ora collection and its a beautiful colour but as mentioned on my youtube channel Soapso I dont particularly love what the product is like but the pretty blue adds a little bit of happiness to your otherwise plain fingers.


Colour show by maybeline in the shade "latte" -nothing like a latte colour this was purchased I believe in poundland. However the shade is coral like and perfect for those lovely little days out or weddings or maybe for a sneaky insta with a latte... its not a latte colour though haha.


Loreal paris in shade nouvelle vague- £3 asos

The MOSTTTTT gorgeous colour and the best nail varnish and I really love it in this autumn time it makes me feel all warm just by looking at it and its perfect at £3. I would personally say you should try this nail varnish range however I do not know the price and have not seen them anywhere else.

so whats your favs comment below... much love your soap xox

Make Up Monday- Make Up Brushes

Hey everyone, Welcome back to another one of my Make up Mondays :)

Today I thought why not talk about my wonderful and not so wonderful brushes I use... Ps its my birthday! I am 20!.. sadly no longer a teen.

So first is my Real Technique brushes by Sam and Nic chapman

Sisters of Jim chapman (youtuber and husband to the gorgeous Tanya Burr)  these girls have come sooo far from just being youtubers. I feel these brushes are by far the best. Easy to handle and they glide easy.

The bristles are all high quality and my first brush I bought of theirs sadly died a few weeks back after 2 years of using it everyday... They are that good!!

I think these brushes are worth the money and with many ranges why not ask for maybe one or two for Christmas ;)
Definetely a 10/10 and a product I would recommend. ALSO check out their website for some handy make up tips with each brush that's in their collection!


2. Brushes from Sheinside


After 2 very bad orders from sheinside I refuse to shop their again however from one of my successful orders I got these gorgeous white coloured make up brushes. They came in a bag which made them sadly look childish so I binned that haha.

The product looks professional and looks pretty however bristles do fall off and the texture of the brushes can be irritating sometimes.

Soooo for me I am giving this a cool and just past the idk if I should of bought it mark of 5/10


number 3. Lottie Brushes

There was a lot of publicity on these brushes so I thought I would buy them just to see what they were like and straight away loved them.
The colours are super cool and give the brush a little bit of a makeover. Fun and poppy it adds a difference to anyone who wants a difference in their old boring makeup bag.

I purchased mine in Superdrug which I would like to say sometimes do offers and for students you can get 10 percent off! result!

My personal fav is the eyeshadow brush - think it may be the fact it actually is soft on my eyes.

I love them as much as my real techniques brushes so I had to give them a 10/10

Please keep making those brushes lottie!

So that's my little brush blog. I do also use a sponge from beauty outlet for my foundation however its not as good coverage for my foundation as my brushes does.

love you all millions,

Soap xoxox
