my day at alton towers.

I've never ever been to Alton Towers before and to be honest it was the most amazing experience! There is a new ride at Alton Towers called The Smiler.. which is why we decided to go.

As it was in a little village and twisty turny roads , we thought it was going to be really stressful to get there but it wasn't and well sign posted. 

When we got there we walked straight to nemisis to warm us up. There was absolutely no line so we walked straight on the ride. A mixture of anxiety and excitement rushed to me but before I could become anxious, the ride had started and I'm so glad I did it. 6/10

We then went on Air( weird&wonderful by the way). 10/10

Then came Nemisis Sub Terra. This was the worst experience of my life. First of all there was this dude shouting at us being a total idiot.. I giggled and he just starred at me and made me feel small and was super antagonising. They said it was like 'Nemisis.. In the dark'.. and I thought that meant the ride Nemisis in the dark. No.. No it wasn't. We sat in a circle and at first it was fun because it dropped down but then someone was screaming 'get out get out get out!' which made a start panicking. I had a panic attack and there was no way of getting out. People were touching me and I couldn't handle it. So warning to everyone... do not think it is nemisis.. in the dark:). 0/10

We then went on Thirteen which I was front row in and that was super cool. 8/10

~Rita.. which left my stomach at the start of the ride. 8/10

~Oblivion.. I was so nervous for this and I think it was because of the very steep drop. 9/10

come on! look at it! 

~The Smiler.. made me laugh all the way round which was a weird experience. Amazing ride and defiantly recommend it. 10/10

Then went on Nemisis&Air again. 

Finally for a nice end to the day we went on The Flume.7/10 We got soaked and it was really funny! 

All in all Alton Towers was absolutely amazing! Defiantly recommend it.. The only downside of it was I had a panic attack. 

Have a lovely day! ❤ 

primark haul ~ ish.

Whilst I was in Bournemouth I went shopping. It's a brilliant place... to shop and going to the beach. Bournemouth was just all round amazing.

It's such a beautiful place (Bournemouth pier).

When I was going shopping.. I see a massive Primark. You know when you see a Primark you just have to go into it. 

Just to say that not everything is from Primark... but the most of it is.

The floral playsuit&the Superdry pants are not from Primark.

This is what the floral boyfriend t-shirt(£5)looks like and also the disco leggings (£7) look like. 

I wanted a pair of disco pants/leggings for a while now but I didn't want to pay load for the American Apparel ones just incase they didn't suit me. 

The high-waisted disco legging are very confitable and I would defiantly recommend giving them a go. 

The boyfriend jeans(£7-sale) 

Tweety pie t-shirt(£6)

The type of jeans I normally wear are skinny. I wanted some difference and decided to go with a boyfriend style. Also style icon like Rihanna have been pulling off the whole rolled up boyfriend jean look,so I decided to give it a go. They were originally £14, which I didn't find too bad for a nice pair of jeans.. but then I go to the till and they showed as £7!

I've been really liking the baggy/boyfriend  style at the moment. 

This wasn't from primark but it's such a beautiful playsuit. (from a little market place in Bournemouth-£15) 

As you can see from the first picture.. there is a gorgeous mint green bag(£5). I absolutly adore the colour mint.. and this is just the perfect size for everything. Bargain! Also you can see the bright coloured hair bands(£1). 

I also saw a range of nail polish in there called Angelicia. Absolutly beautiful colours and I chose a glitter nails polish(£2.50) 

The colour is Spring Break. 

Thank you for reading and sorry for my lack of posts. Been super busy&sorting stuff out. Love you all.

By the way.. sorry for the font. My computer won't let me use my normal font or put my links at the bottom. Also i will be starting to use my d-slr camera again as the photos I've been posting are quite bad quality. sorry x 

How To Do 60s Make Up!

I'm not a professional at make up. I just love make up and I wanted to try it out. There are probably much better tutorials out there but this is just how I do a 60s make up look.


Step 1:

Start out with a heavy base as we want the skin to look absolutely flawless.(I look so happy..)

Step 2:

Contour cheek bones with either a matt bronzer or a contouring powder.

Step 3: 

Use a pale pink blush and apply that to the apples of your cheeks.

Step 4:

Use a champagne colour and sweep all across the lid.

Step 5:

 Use a black kohl liner and draw a line in the socket of your eye.. with a slight flick at the end.

On top of the eyeliner, put some black eyeshadow on it.. To make it look deeper and smokey.

Step 6:

 Get a gel eyeliner and wing it out on the top.

Also take some of the gel eyeliner and put it on the bottom lash line.



Step 7:

Add a lot of mascara to the top and bottom eyelashes. Also add some false eyelashes to make your eyelashes look full and fluttery.

Step 8:



Finally add a pale pink lipgloss and fill in your eyebrows strongly.

DONE!

If you enjoyed and liked this tutorial then I'd love it if you could try it and post them on instagram and tag me in it(meganrawlins) or tweet me(@megan_rawlins) .

Have a lovely monday!

I went shopping!❤

I went shopping today! yay! The reason this happened is because its my beautiful mum's birthday tomorrow and I literally had nothing to wear so I popped in new look and I really was expecting to find much but I found a whole outfit and I'm really pleased.

I bought a beautiful floaty netted crop top and don't worry it has a opaque black slip underneath. I just thought this would look amazing with the aztec maxi dress that I got because even though there is some pattern on the crop top I just wanted to make the outfit a bit more interesting. 

Also got some black wedges because they are quite comfortable and I don't have any wedges.

To add a bit of interest I bought some gorgeous earrings with a hoop and turquoise gems around the hoop with gold leaves and red beads hanging. these were in the sale and thought they were a great find.

 I also bought a real techniques brush from boots and I will definatly be reviewing that once I've given it a good test run:-).

BBQ! it was gorgeous!




Thank you for reading&looking at my pictures!

Current Beauty Favourites♥

These are just some of the things I have been loving for the past couple of months. I won't be doing a beauty favourites every month because to be honest I normally like the same products over a few months.

The first thing I have been loving is my Original Source Mint&Tea Tree shower gel. Oh my..this stuff actually smells amazing! On the days where I am not feeling amazing or I am feeling very very tired, when I put this shower gel on me I just get woken up instantly. This shower gel is quite cheap aswell and I will be defiantly be purchasing this more. Also, fun fact for you all.. in only one bottle of this shower gel, it holds 7,927 mint leaves. That's probably why it smells so god damn amazing.

Another thing I've been loving is my Toni&Guy cleanse and nourish shampoo and conditioner for blonde hair. I have ombre'd my hair..and I won't lie ombreing is not good for your hair. Ombreing is bleaching the ends of your hair basically and you're stripping the hair of it's natural colour. I bought this shampoo and conditioner because I wanted to look after my hair and make it all nice and amazing. It definatly did the job of looking after my hair and I will be defiantly re-purchasing it. It makes the ends of my hair nourished and it makes my ombre hair look brighter and more healthier. I might do a blog post on my ombre hair routine.

On the hair front.. I have also been liking the Toni&Guy Salt Spray. Since I have had ombre hair, I've been liking my hair kinda of messy with loose beachy curls. I just find that my hair looks a bit more intresting that way. The spray itself is absolutely lovely. It's not sticky, it's not crunchy.. nothing is worst than having crunchy hair..It's just wrong. It's an all round amazing product.

Since I have been using my salt spray my hair has been a lot more tangled.. which means my Tangle Teezer has been a god send. I alway dread brushing my hair...with all the knots and oh my..it just makes me want to cry. But now I don't cringe at the thought of brushing my hair when I have my tangle teezer. I just makes the chore of brushing my hair less annoying&horrible. If you have quite knotty long hair I would defiantly recommend you try the Tangle Teezer out. Also they have many different colours to choose from.

Now on to the make up. Clinque superbalanced makeup.. I have mentioned this in a previous blog post but I haven't said how much I love this foundation. It's a quite light foundation but it has quite a lot of coverage..that probably makes no sense but. The coverage is quite high but without looking cakey.

Also been loving the maybelline the falsies mascara which I also mentioned in a previous blog post. This mascara gives you volume and length, it also spreads out your eyelashes so you dont have spidery eyelashes.. spidery eyelashes is always a bad look.

Maybelline gel eyeliner in black. I have never tried out any gel eyeliners but this is amazing. It stays on my eyes all day long.. looks lovely when you wing it out and it's quite a jet black and that doesn't fade through-out the day.

The last two things I have been loving is M.A.C creme blend blush in Something Special, which is really natural and gives a nice glow to your cheeks. Annnnnnd a Rimmel London Kate Moss Lipstick in number 16. This is a bright coral colour which looks lovely on a summers day, I have been wearing this alot lately because the sun is been out. I think that if you're wearing quite a plain outfit, it can easily be brightened up with this lipstick.. also it's very affordable!
