My recently liked TV Shows

This blog post will be about TV shows I've recently discovered, or have come back on TV that I really am enjoying.

1. Make it or Break it.
This show is about mainly four Gymnasts, but there's are usual gymnasts, these are determined. They spend 6 hours a day training and represent their country: USA. I was hooked from the first episode, this just isn't about their time in the gym it's also about their lives outside. There's backstabbing, survival, love and losts. There's also alot of competition and so much tension. This is what makes the show good.

2. True Blood.
This show is back on for its third season. I loved the other two, and the last episode left you on a cliff hanger so I am so glad it's back. This show is basically about a small town in the USA, but there are vampires living there, not just there, they live all over the world and unlike in other vampire novels or TV shows, people know these vampires exist and are not hidden. Although only one episode into the new season I am already loving the new story. Bill is lost and Sookie needs to find him before the head vampires do. I can't wait to watch the rest of the season.

3. Hollyoaks.
Hollyoaks at the moment is amazing. Brendan has been locked up for a murder that he didn't commit, yet all the evidence points to him. Only Lindsey knows who really did it but no one believes her. There is so much more tension and action in Hollyoaks than any other soap on TV at the moment and the story line is so gripping. Holloaks Later was also on for a week giving an epic second base story line to the original Hollyoaks but also connecting both. Much love for this show at the moment.

4. Top Gear.
Only very recently have I gotten into this. I love Top Gear. You don't need to know about cars to love this show, they add so much humour and entertainment to this show that you almost forget it's about cars. The presenters make the show so much more entertaining though, Clarkson, Hammond and May are an amazing trio. I also love the fact that it's on everyday.

5. Waterloo Road.
Waterloo Road being back on TV makes my Wednesday nights so much more worthwhile. If you don't know what Waterloo Road is, it's a school and the show is set around the school and everything that goes on. It's safe to say it's not your original school. Although I'm not keep on some of the new characters and miss some of the old ones, I really hope I get to liking this new series. I'm really sad that we don't get to see what happens to Jess and her baby, but I hope her friends mention her. I can't wait to get back into this show.

Natural Collection.





1.  Eyeliner (Black)
I really like this eyeliner, I mostly use it for my waterline and goes on without and tug and pull and it stays on there for a reasonably long time. 

2. Liquid Eyeliner (Black)
This liquid eyeliner stays on for a very long time, and barely rubs off. The only thing I don't like about it is that it has a very long applicator so it's very hard to apply. Still worth the money though.

3. Lipgloss (Vanilla)
This is a really nice clear lipgloss, it goes on nicely and looks very nice on, the only thing is that it doesn't stay on for a very long time and you have to keep re-applying it. The smell is great though!

4. Concealer (Fair)
This concealer is great for covering the blackness under the eyes, it has a medium coverage and isn't too heavy. Although I find when I try and cover a red spot it does look a bit cakey. 


5. Cover-Up Cream (Fair)
I prefer the concealer to this, only because it has more coverage and I find this makes me look a lot more cakey. Still good for under the yes though.


6. Blusher (Peach Melba)
This was my first every blusher and I've never gone to another one because I've never had to. Although it does make my poores look quite big sometimes, it blends nicely and they have a nice range of colours!

7. Tinted Moisturiser (Natural)
I really like this, more because it makes my poores look smaller and a more matte look. It doesn't hide any redness which is the down side. It also lasts for ages, which is good.


8. Lipstick (Apple Blossom)
I don't like this very much, although the colour looks nice on, it doesn't stay on for a long time at all. I realise in about a minute after I've applied it, it's already worn off.

9. Mascara (Black)
For it's price, it's okay. It doesn't really make lashes that much longer or thicker, it's mostly just turns them black. It also wears off really easily.

10. Loose Powder (Natural)
I really like this. With this product you'll find a little goes a long way. It looks nice if you wear a fair amount, but alot can make you look very, very powdery. It stays on for quite a long time so no need to keep applying it thought the whole day.

11. Pressed Powder (Neutral)
This also stays on for a very long time. Although, like on most natural collection skin things, there is a small amount of colours. It sets foundation nicely, I really like this powder.

Overall, I really like Natural Collection things. For their price they are really good and almost all the time Boots have a 3 for £5 offer on.
