Fashion Is Our Religion Blog Sale

As I will be shortly moving house and need to save up some extra pennies, I have decided to have a big clear out and decided to sell my soul unwanted beauty and fashion products in a blog sale! The following products no longer suit me or I don't really use them enough - some I've received through beauty boxes and gift sets and I don't really like them that much or have a need for them. I may add more products to this as I find more stuff I don't need so feel free to keep checking back! As for clothing, I shall add this to the sale once I have photographed everything (I have a lot of unwanted clothes!). 

- This will be a UK only blog sale

- Everything is on a first come, first served basis

- If you would like anything, please email me with your choices and address at fashionisourreligion91@gmail.com and I will confirm all prices and postage

- All payments will be taken via Paypal - please tick the friends and family box to make sure Paypal doesn't charge either of us

- If there is no payment within 24 hours, the items will be released back into the sale

- Postage will be tailored to each order - price will depend on quantities, size and weight of items sold, but I will keep it as low as possible

- I won't accept returns or exchanges - all sales are final and non-refundable so please make sure you want the items before you commit to pay - but feel free to sell on yourself

- All items will be cleaned before being dispatched - all beauty products will be wiped clean and all clothing has been washed - though some might be a bit creased on arrival from being folded up

- Items will be dispatched within 2-3 working days of payment and will be marked off as sold on the blog sale

If you have any questions, comment below or send an email to fashionisourreligion91@gmail.com

Happy Shopping!

The Christmas Haul // What I got for Chrismtas

I've seen many bloggers share what they received for Christmas in a haul post, so I thought I would do one of my own! Considering I'm getting old, I think I've done pretty well this year and got some really lovely things; I think now I'm a bit older I really love to give people presents and see them make people happy, so I do tend to go a bit crazy when buying things for others! I didn't really have anything specific that I wanted to get, I'm so indecisive and I don't like it to look like I was expecting a big pile of different presents, I've probably mentioned a few things over the past few months but never expected to get them! If you follow me on Twitter, you will probably know a few of the presents that I got, but here is a full list of the presents I received this year.

Outfit Of The Day // 25th December

Onesie Primark - Slipper boots Next - Eyeliner Maybelline Master Kajal Liner £5.99  Lipstick Rimmel Kate Moss Matte 107 £5.49 

Hello everyone and I hope you've had a very merry Christmas and you've had a lovely time with all your loved ones! I for one was actually looking forward to Christmas this year as it was the first time in 3 years I've been able to spend longer than a day at home! For the past few years I worked for Next up in Manchester and of course had to work the dreaded Next sale, though I wasn't allowed to transfer to Leicester stores to be close to home for Christmas (100+ miles away from my normal store) and was given the ultimatum of either finding a way to travel up to Manchester (may also add no trains on boxing day as well, so had to be driven up) or losing my job, but hey ho lets not get into that now. This year on my placement I have nearly 2 weeks off from work! I really don't know what to do with myself with all this free time! I won't be looking forward to going back to retail next year that's for sure! But my mum and dad are overjoyed that I'm living with them for the year whilst on placement and especially happy that I'm here over Christmas as well, so that's the main thing that I get to spend some time with them. 

This year for Christmas we decided to have a bit of fun and the girls had to wear a Christmas onesie and the boys had to wear Christmas jumpers! I for one wasn't going to complain about spending the whole day in pjs. My onesie is from Primark, I'm not sure how much it was as my mum brought it for me but I'm guessing it's around the £10 mark. Mine was bright red with a white fair isle print all over it, so it looked very festive indeed. The material had a waffle weave texture to it and was very comfortable, the only downside is all the buttons you have to undo and redo when needing the loo, it would have been a lot more practical with poppers! Although it was my size, it was literally like a tent on me, I'm 5'8" so I'm hardly small but it was like it had a drop crotch and was very baggy on my body and legs, it could have easily fit someone probably half a foot taller than me! If you get one of these onesies, it suggest going a size smaller than you normally would.

Although my outfit was pretty low key and I just wore my onesie with some slipper boots I got last year, I decided to have a full face of make up with a bold eye and lip, after all it is Christmas. I also put Sleep In Rollers in my hair the night before just to add some volume and a bit of a wave to my hair, I'll have to do a full review of them at some point to show you properly. 

What did you go for for your Christmas day outfit, dressed to the nines or casual and comfy like me?

Amie xx

100 Bloglovin' followers Giveaway

Hello everyone, last week I finally hit my first milestone of 100 followers on Bloglovin'! I was so excited to hit my first milestone, it means so much to me that there are people out there enjoying my blog and taking the time to follow me and keep coming back! I know I haven't been very consistent with blog posts lately as I've been busy with my placement during the week, so I haven't had as much free time to blog if I've had things to do at the weekend as well. So, it means even more to me that all you lovely bloggers are still supporting me and Fashion Is Our Religion.

So to celebrate and to thank my followers, I've decided to host my first giveaway! I've bought a range of make up products that are ideal for A/W. Think bold graphic make up in deep vampy colours which will be perfect for a rocky and dramatic make up look. I've chosen products from some of my favourite make up brands which I have had experience with using myself and loved, so I hope you love them just as much!

Starting Off: Foundation

It's week 4 of #theSOproject and this is going to be a double bill as I have been incredibly busy and didn't have time to finish my foundation post from last week! So this will be my first post this week for last weeks edition and then there will be this weeks regular post as well! We are a few weeks into the project now and it's been fantastic so far to talk with the bloggers who are taking part and to find other opinions and reviews on different products that I know and some that I don't! It's really opened my eyes to how broad the spectrum of beauty products is and convinced me I should be more open to try products and brands that I haven't gone for before. Last time I touched upon concealers and this week I am going to build upon this and talk about foundations.

Foundations are a make-up basic and help to cover flaws, improve the look of skin quality and to create an even complexion. There are many different foundations with varying levels of coverage and are suited to different skin types. In recent years, Primers, BB and CC creams have been developed to further perfect the skin's appearance and these can be worn underneath foundation so that foundation's have an even surface to be applied to or they can be worn by themselves for a light coverage and a quick fix to improve the look of complexions. I am going to share with you my collection of foundations, primers, BB and CC creams, their different levels of coverage, suitability for skin types and what different factors they aim to provide to a consumer.

The Lust List #1

Window shopping has to be one of my favourite past times, I adore poring over the latest collections, getting a vibe of the various trends du jour and lusting after this season's must have fashion and beauty pieces. So I've decided to create a new series called The Lust List, which is basically going to share with you which hot items I can't take my eyes off no matter how hard I try; items that I need right now in my life and would be willing to sell my soul for to make that happen - or at least empty my bank account. This Lust List is going to focus on the latest fashion and beauty must haves from the new A/W 2013 collections - hot off the press and a few clicks away from being in my wardrobe. Not sure whether this series will be a good or bad thing for my bank accounts, having all my lust-haves in one place could be very tempting indeed!

Starting Off: Concealer

I hoped you all enjoyed my first installment of #theSOproject last week on Skincare, I'm now bringing you the latest part of the project which is all about concealers! As teenagers we've all had to endure breakouts and waking up to huge, angry, embarrassing spots that we'd wish would disappear before we headed off to school or college. Even now, we still strive to have blemish free skin and to cover up any imperfections that may appear due to stress, being run down or a sleepless night. For both teenagers and adults, concealers can be our best friends as a quick fix to perfect our skin, a little bit of concealer in the right places can be a great confidence booster, especially for young teenagers experiencing spots for the first time. My concealer collection at the minute is shockingly bad due to a clear out to get rid of old products, so at the minute I only have one, and it's a pretty basic concealer at that! So I am going to share with you concealers I have used over the past few years and the best way to use them for different skin blemishes and imperfections.

Beauty Haul // Boots

Hey Girls! Now if you follow me on twitter (@Fashion_IOR), you will have seen that I mentioned doing a mega Boots haul the other week, I don't know what I've been doing all this time to be only posting this now, I seem to be getting distracted by all these blogger chats in the evenings! Anyway better late than never. This must be the one of the biggest shopping sprees I've done in Boots since going on holiday, but it was my first full time pay day for my placement year, so I thought I'd just go for it! Boots is one of my favourite places to shop in, I just love finding all the new products and trying them out, I'm literally like a kid in a candy store! I could spend hours at all the make up counters and poring over the shiny bottles of hair products and I think I get excited at the prospect of finding a new look. I can safely say I'm probably stocked up for a while, though I'm sure I'll see something new and sparkly soon and I'll be totting up the Advantage points once again!
