Leeds is an amazing city. It’s my home town, where I’ve been brought up and lived all my life. I really don’t think the city gets recognition for what it’s like there’s much here. Places to see, things to do and there’s always new things coming.

 Leeds is full of hidden gems - there’s so many places I go and I just don’t even think other people know much about. Leeds is an amazing place and I think it deserves to be recognised. Just even to spend a day here would be an experience and you can get so much done.

 One thing I think that’s amazing about Leeds is the shopping. To start with we’ve an amazing city centre. It’s huge!! full of shops and resteraunts. There’s so much to do in it - there is parks, fields - honestly you name it. You can make a full day out of shopping when it comes to Leeds as there are huge shops - Harvey nics, John Lewis and a huge primark! If you don’t want the city centre we’ve so many other places to go. There’s even a more ‘vintage’ take in the corn exchange at the bottom of the town, which is a good / shopping place full of small, independent stores. It’s got breathtaking architecture and is so lovely to stroll though.




There’s the white rose on the outskirts of Leeds - it’s huge shopping centre with so many food places and shops that you can make a full day out of. along with that and there’s a new and upcoming place called ‘the springs’ with afew shops opening, a cinema and Nando’s! When it comes to shopping you can never run out in Leeds - I’m confident to say it has nearly every shop you could possibly dream of.

 When it has warmer weather, Leeds is the place to be! There are huge parks such as temple Newsam which I know I always go to - roundhay Park is another similar place. They’re well known places with land marks that are famous to Leeds. They have beautiful fields, parks and nice places to sit and eat. Perfect for picnics and just a spend free day out. Me and my friends always go to have a good time.

 For food - Leeds is one of the best places. In town there are so many large chains and so many little gems I myself are still working on finding. There are so many places to go to but I want to share my favourites! Blackhouse is known for a steakhouse but they also serve other food & an amazing Sunday dinner! I think the best fish & chips shop is here, Fisherman’s Wife there are so many more amazing places but I think these two have to be my favourite of Leeds gems - they’ll be a post
coming with more of these!


 This is such a small taster and little overview of Leeds - there’s so much more to this amazing city and I could go on and on but I think everyone needs to even just spend the day there as there’s so much to do, to see and to love.

Makeup is something I wear everyday and is pretty much essential to me! I love it so much and I really enjoy trying new products. The more I buy the wiser I’m coming on where you should Splurge vs save in the makeup categories as some products I don’t think you need to spend as much on. This is more specific to people and their ways I think but I’ve found some drugstore products work just as well for me.


 Brushes are something 100% worth the splurge! They are used everyday and what we need to apply the makeup I really think they are worth the investment because my brushes have lasted me so long! i use real techniques or Zoeva but RT are the best

 For the face I think primer is worth the splurge. I don’t know what it is about high end primers - they stick my makeup to my face and help ur last so much!! They’re so essential to me and I’ve found drugstore ones really don’t work with me so I splurge as much as I can on primers.

 I think another great place to splurge is on highlighters. I love a strong blinding glow as it helps me look so much healthier and I’ve found that my high end highlighters have been so worth the money - they last forever and are so beautiful! I would happily spend my money on highlighters as they are worth it.

 I think lip products make any look - so they’re worth the splurge! Don’t get me wrong drugstore do amazing lip products but you can’t beat Charlotte tilbury lipsticks, the luxury Dior lipgloss - my favourites! These last so long and feel so luxurious on the lips they are worth the money to help look so much better in a look. A lip product brings together the face and they necessary.

 When it comes to saving I think the drugstore have some amazing base products. For foundation and concealer I tend to use my drugstore products as they work perfectly as they’re affordable and get used everyday. My L’Oréal true match foundation and makeup rev concealer are my so go to and they work amazing!!As well for base, you can’t go wrong with Rimmel stay matte! I think this powder is perfect and you wouldn’t need to splurge on a powder even this drugstore one is amazing

 Brows are so important but I think you can save on them - there are such affordable brow pomades and brow gels that work perfect! You can save and still have amazing brows on a budget.

 I really love trying makeup and and I’m so glad I’ve learnt so much over the time of doing it - makeup really is something we enjoy but you can save and splurge in any way you want. It’s all about trying and finding what works for you - and this is perfect for me!
