New Year Resolutions

I never really make any new year resolutions as I don't see the point, and usually when i make resolutions I never do them. But this year I decided I would attempt to actually do my resolutions. I sat down and came up with a few blog resolutions.

1. Improve my photography skills
As much as I love photography I am horrible at it. My blog photos are not the best they can be. I have decided that I am going to start using my camera more often and maybe even try out some iPhone lenses.

2. Interact more on social media
I have a twitter and instagram specifically for my blog but never seem to use them. My twitter feed is dry and my instagram is empty, I am going to try to upload more and interact with more people.

3. Become a Photoshop/illustrator pro
I have just installed a trial version of Adobe creative cloud and been testing it out and trying to figure out how to use it, and I'm not very good. I want to make better visuals and pin worthy pictures. I have been watching a lot of videos and trying to see what I can create. As you can see I tried something out above using Canva.

4. Post more consistently
I don't have a proper post schedule, I usually post when I feel like it and that means that I sometimes go 2-3 weeks without a post. I want to create a schedule and stick to it, so hopefully my posts will be more consistent in 2015.

I only thought of four resolutions but I think if I actually try I could complete these resolutions. Its weird to think that 2014 is over and done with, we can never live it again but lets hope 2015 is a good year. What are some of your resolutions? And have a happy new year!!

Technic makeup review

Technic kindly sent me some of there products to try and I have been using them for the past 2-3 weeks, this post is a little late because I was busy with school and stuff. Anyway I have been using the products for a some time now and wanted to share my opinion with you.

Technic ''smooth it'' primer

The primer comes in a little pink jar and the primer itself is also a baby pink colour. The primer is thick and as I like to describe it, it feels kind of like icing. I didn't notice anything different, it didn't make my makeup last longer or anything. It isn't the best primer but I do use it as it smooths out some areas.

Technic lashitude mascara

I really like the packaging of this mascara for some reason and I also really liked the wand. The mascara does not clump at all which is great and lengthens pretty well. It isnt the best mascara for volume and thickness. 

Technic lip shine

The packaging of this lip gloss is really nice and looks high end. It has great pigmentation and the colour can be worn sheer or you can build it up. The only thing I didn't really like was the scent apart from that I would love to try more colours.

Technic BB foundation 

This is a bb cream and foundation mix together I guess. The shade that was sent to me was too light unfortunately but I did mix it with a darker foundation and I really liked it. If you are looking for something that isn't heavy, this is great.

Technic colourfix concealer

I love this concealer, it is the slightest bit light for me but still usable. It comes in a tube with a little application wand. It is really creamy and blends in really well. It is not the best coverage concealer but can cover my redness.

Technic hide it palette

This is a concealer palette with four shades, yellow, green, pink and a nude skin tone. I personally did not enjoy this product, I felt like the colours were not pigmented and they did not cover my blemishes very well. 

Technic colourfix 2 in 1 foundation and powder

This is a compact 2 in 1 powder and foundation, unfortunately the colour was way to light for me but I still used the powder, which I did like. It comes with a powder and then another layer with the foundation. It would be great for chucking into your bag as it is compact and not too bulky. 

Technic colourfix pressed powder

This is the product I have been using the most. The colour is perfect maybe the slightest bit too dark, but wearable. It is really smooth and natural looking, I'm still unsure if the product has little light reflecting particles but I really do like this product  and I use it daily.

That is the review, I hope you liked it, let me know in the comments if you have tried any makeup from Technic. If you are interested in any of these products you can visit there website.
