A Day In Celebration FL


On my recent visit to Florida me & my family travelled to a little town called Celebration.

It is your typical American town that has the best scenery.

Celebration is one of my favourite places I have ever visited & I love to share pictures of places I have visited to give you some insight in where to visit.

If you are ever in Florida I would definitely try to visit Celebration as it is truly beautiful.



There is a really American style cafe in the centre of the town which sells cola floats which are typical American style drinks which consists of cola & ice cream! They are amazingly good!



Also in the centre of Celebration there is a huge lake & beside the lake there are rocking chairs where you can just sit & watch the world go by. However, alligators live in that lake which makes me a little but weary to sit there for too long...


My ultimate favourite ice cream parlour is in Celebration. The smell in that place is amazing it literally smells like fudge. They also have a crazy amount of different ice creams which I am sure are all amazing.


Unfortunately, this french pastries shop wasn't open when I was there which I was very sad about but I loved the sign so hopefully when I go back in the future it will be open!


Behind the lakes where you can walk around I spotted this guy! I couldn't believe it. After I took this picture I started to walk very fast...


You can actually hire bikes & cycle around the different lakes & take in all the picturesque scenery.


It is the simple things that make me happy. I had to take a picture of the stereotypical mail box!


I had to also take a picture of this really cute boutique because of the name. I am obsessed with the show on Netflix called Once Upon A Time so this also made me very happy!


Of course, the type of house we all see in American movies with the rocking chairs on the porches & the American flag. I so want to live here...

I love everything about Celebration & I hope you have enjoyed looking what the town has to offer & if you do go to Florida definitely visit Celebration. It is like the dreamiest town.

Love,

Review: Maybelline 'Brow Drama'




I actually bought this product in my recent visit to Florida, I had heard a lot about this & I really wanted to see what the fuss was about.

Honestly, I am in love with this product. I have tried a couple of eye brow products in the past including Benefits 'Brow Zing' brow shaping kit & the drugstore dupe Sleek's Brow Kit which are both one side powder & the other side wax.

This product is very different than the ones I have used in the past as it is a gel substance.


As you can see the applicator is a lot like a mascara brush but in a rounded shape.

This makes the product very easy to apply & the wand picks up all the little hairs that you can't see which makes your eyebrows look fuller.

I tend to apply this product by lightly stroking the rounded end upward towards the top of the brow & then continuing this motion along the rest of the eyebrow.

I could definitely see the difference this product made to my eyebrows. Also the wear time of this product is incredible, it stayed on my eyebrows all night until I got home. Again, especially wearing this product in a hot country, I did worry about it smudging but thankfully it kept my eyebrows looking great all night long!

The price of this product is around the average £5.00 mark. You really can't go wrong...

If you are just starting out in makeup or trying out different things on your brows I would definitely recommend this product as it is very easy to apply & you can't really go wrong.

Overall, I am very happy I purchased this product & I will keep buying it until I find something better (that is if I do find something better!).

What are your thoughts on this product?

Love,
