7 things for 7 days | How did I do?


Hey guys!
So last week, I took part in Louise's (sprinkle of glitter) interactive 7 things for 7 days (Here!), and now I'm going to do a kind of, how did I do type of post, so...
(1) Don't be afraid to spend!
So basically, this was just to invest better in my make-up. I was going to buy Mac's studio sculpt foundation, but I didn't exactly splash out in the end. I bought Maybelline's Dream Fresh BB Cream (Review coming soon!). Which was between £6-£9, I got mine on offer in ASDA for £6 but I know it's a lot more than that. So not exactly achieved.
(2) Get a different skin care routine!
I am so glad I did this! I have noticed a MASSIVE change with my skin, and I'm so happy about it! It didn't cost me a small fortune, as I didn't get a completely new range of products, I kept some stuff, swapped other things, bought some new things, and I'm so impressed! I really recommend doing this, if, like me, you start to feel like your skin care routine isn't having an effect.
(3) Make something!
I made an iPod case actually. I'm really amazed with it. A lot of people have asked where I got it from, so me and my friend (Who made them with me, and is my brothers girlfriend, haha) are thinking of making and selling them, I'll probably do another post on that though.
(4) Get reading!
I have been SO busy this week, I haven't had chance to just sit down and relax with a book. I wish I had of done this one, maybe next time.
(5) Sort out!
Once again, time got away from me. I still have to stare them tragic outfits in the face. Sigh.
(6) Blog!
Not exactly. I actually have a lot of stuff in draft that I have written though, so I have blogged....kind of....I'll be posting them soon!
(7) Meet people!
No, not yet. I haven't even really sat down at the computer this week, so haven't exactly had a chance. It's definitely something I want to do though :)

OK so that's my update on my 7 things for 7 days. How do you think I did? Not great, I have to admit. I'll be writing another 7 things for 7 days soon, I think it's a really good idea, as it kind of motivates you to reach your goals.
Thanks for reading!
Adios!

7 things for 7 days!

Hey guys! I'm really sorry about not blogging in a while!
You may have already seen Louise's ( www.sprinkleofglitter.blogspot.co.uk ) ' Interactive! 7 things for 7 days :: June', you may have already done it. Basically you just make a list of 7 things you want to achieve in 7 days, and write them down as a motivator. Personally, I think this is a great idea! So here are my 7 things...
(1) Don't be afraid to spend!
I seem to always buy the cheap make-up, which is poor quality instead of investing in something that works, so this week, I'm going to splash out on a high end lipstick or foundation.
(2) Get a different skin care routine!
I've had the same skin care routine for so long now, and when you don't change your routine for so long, you start to not notice any change, so this week, I'm going to look around for different cleansers, removers, moisturisers, face wash, etc. ,  and see if I notice a difference. Fingers crossed!
(3)  Make something!
I love making random things, however I haven't for so long! My 5 year old cousin is coming to stay with me for the weekend, so I'm thinking of making her a tutu or something. Hmmm, I need to get my creative juices flowing.
(4) Get reading!
For Christmas, my mum kindly got me a kindle, but it seems I've kind of gotten out of the habit of reading. So I'm going to blow the dust of my lovely kindle and do some more reading. I love Sophie Kinsella and have some books I'm going to re-read ( Yey!)
(5) Sort out!
My wardrobe isn't that great, it's full of clothes that are too small, and things that I just look at and ask myself 'Why?! Why did I buy this?'. I think I need to clear it out and then re-stock it ;)
(6) Blog!
It's been more than a week since my last post (smacks hand) and this is really bad for a blog, so I'm planning to write down some ideas of what I can write about, and then ...write about them. So if there is anything you want me to write about, please tell me!
(7) Meet people!
Blogging is a great way to make new friends, so I'm going to use this to my advantage, and meet some new people! Yay!

So that's my 7 things for 7 days, I hope you take part in this too, if you do, be sure to tell me!

Thanks for reading!
Adios!
Abbie!
