My Top 5 Drugstore Skincare and Beauty Products

Hi guys, so sorry I haven't posted in a while, been busy busy with school recently as the summer exams are in just a few weeks. Anyway, have fun reading!!!


My Top 5 Drugstore Skincare and Beauty Products:



1. Tea tree & Witch hazel blemish stick.

This is a brand manufactured by Boots which is really good value for money. Myself and a lot of My friends use this because it is so cheap and so good.

2. Garnier Micellar cleansing water.


This is the only cleansing water I've tried but it was really good. It took off all makeup, including mascara, eyeshadow and lipstick. If you haven't heard of these you must have been living under a rock, as everybody  has been raving about these. As you can see by the pictures though, I am running out, but I would like to try some other cleansing waters to compare. Although this was definitely a good buy.

3. Real Techniques makeup brushes


These are fantastic brushes and always leave a flawless finsh. They are a good price compared to some high-end brands. I own 10 of these brushes in total, I have the Core Collection, Starter Kit and Blush Brush. If I could only use one brand of makeup brushes for the rest of my life, it would be these.

4. L'oreal Paris Color Riche lipstick


An amazing lipstiick that is soo moisturising, it feels like a balm! For a drugstore product, they are a bit on the pricey side but well worth it. This is my go-to lipstick if I would be going somewhere. The colour shown is 390 Nude Treasure.

5. Sleek Eyeshadow palette in i-Divine


This palette is soo versatile, and I use almost every colour on a regular basis.  The packaging is really nice considering how cheap it is. I would definitely recommend this palette for someone on a budget.

Top 5 Study Tips

Hey, for this blog post I am going to share my Top 5 Study Tips, I hope they help you at least a little bit. :)


1. Quizlet: This is an app/website that is sooooo helpful for learning things, especially languages.It helps you to create Sets, with which you can play games, take mini tests, or just revise using Flashcards. I generally use the app the most, but on the website you can create classes to sort your sets into. Here is a link to the website, I think you should give it a go, if you haven't already: quizlet.com

2. Flashcards: Although these are kind of time-consuming to start off with, they are extremely helpful, and great for revision.


3. Recordings: Great if you have a test and no time AT ALL for studying because you just record yourself reading the key points and listen to it while eating your breakfast, on the way to school, wherever.


4. Before you sit down to learn something, flick through it and write ten random questions that you hope to know by the end and put it away until you're finished. When you're done, take it out, answer the questions and then you'll know if you're ready.


5. Take lots of breaks and Reward Yourself: Every 20-30 minutes take a short, 5 minute break. This doesn't mean you learn two things then go off and watch a whole  episode of PLL, I mean walk around the room, grab a healthy snack, or just check your social media, just don't take too long.


So basically, give these a go and see what you think, they might not work for everybody, but I do hope that at least one them helps you.


Have a fantabulous day,
Mollie xoxo

Intro to Me

Hey, welcome to my blog.

I'm a teenage girl living in Ireland. (How do you pronounce Ireland? Is it eye-er-land, or eyre-land? I guess nobody knows for sure).

I guess now is the part where I give you a reason that I started this blog, but sadly I don't have one. No that's a lie, i do. My mum told me I need a 'creative outlet' and I'm useless at keeping diaries. My mum says embarrassing things like that the whole time. No wonder I'm a walking embarrassment.
* laughs nervously *

Why do I always ramble???? I'm trying to write my first post and I'm getting nowhere. Like, I don't want to be weird on this, but I'm not going to pretend that I'm cool. I'll just say that I hope you have fun reading whatever the hell I end up posting and I'll try to post at least once a week. Just remember that if I can't keep a diary for more than a week, you're going to need to wish me luck with this.

Have a fantabulous day,
Mollie xo
