Share The Love

There are so many great bloggers and youtubers out there and i think everyone has their favourites. I currently follow 120 different blogs and am subscribed to 61 different youtubers, and these are some of my favourites :)

I think Nikki is so talented with make-up and her personality really comes across well in her video's. I really trust her reviews on products which i think is really important for youtubers!

Rene is the kind of person that you just kind of know, she is truly saying what she feels and not trying to sugar coat anything. If something is bad, she will tell you, and if it's good, she will tell you that too. And I love the fact that she is Australian, because i love the Australian accent :)

I've only recently discovered Laura's YouTube channel but I really like her video's. She is also roughly the same age as me i think so i feel as though i can relate to a lot of what she is saying.

Have you seen this girls intro to her video's? seriously, i usually hate intros and just fast forward through them, but Fleur's is so good :) And then of course there is the general content of the video's which i think is a really fun, fresh take on a lot of products and opinions.

I have been a followers of Sabrina's for over a year now, and i think i do see her as a friend rather than just a blogger. I know if i have a questions, i can ask her it on Twitter and receive a very helpful reply. I also really like that her products aren't all high end and she has a great variety to review.

LoveFilm Movie Review - Terminator Salvation

Terminator Salvation

What I Thought: I grew up watching the terminator films, when they were probably inapproprate for me, i just loved watching them. So obviously, this film had a lot to live up to. I thought Terminator 3 was such an epic fail! This one was kind of better, but you will never be able to beat the originals.

Stand Out Character: Anton Yelchin who played Kyle Reese

Favourite Scene: I didn't really have one

Star Rating: ****

Would I Watch Again: Maybe, but i'm in no rush to

Have you seen this film? What did you think of it?

1 YEAR BIRTHDAY!

Can you believe it?? I started my blog on June 10th 2009 ... just over a year ago (haha i missed my blogs actual birthday)

I want to thank you all so much. All 217 of you :) If it wasn't for all of my lovely followers, i don't think i would have been able to carry this blog on for the year :) I'm really looking forward to the next year!

I hope you know that i'm always accepting requests and am happy to answer any questions you may have about anything. All you have to do is e-mail me, as this way i can simple reply directly to you.

BYS - Lila Bliss

You may have seen that I picked up this nail polish sometime last week when I went to Lincoln. It was a right bargain at (I think) £1.69 for 14ml :)

The colour looks to me like a mix of pink, lilac and maybe a spot of grey. It's really pretty and is so much more that just a regular pink polish. I don't know if I will pick up more from this brand because none of the other colours really stood out to me, but I will be keeping an eye out for different colours next time I go.
