Blog Post Ideas

Ok so if your a blogger like me you will know that sometimes you just run out of things to write about! It's not a bad thing so don't get stressed out about it if you feel like your not putting your all into it. Even if your new to blogging you may need some ideas to write about, here's just a few things I thought about in my spare time and thought I'd share with all of you guys.

Reviews -

So reviewing is pretty straight forward whatever your blog is about clothes, makeup, food, keeping fit ect.. If you have any products to do with your content just write about it reviewing them telling your readers if they are good or bad. Readers love knowing about the latest products because if they are rubbish were not going to have to go out there and waste our money are we! 

What's in my bag/purse

You can probably guess what this is by the title, whatever items you have in your bag post pictures of them and explain what they are and why you carry them around and why they are your must haves. 

My day in pictures -

When you have an interesting fun day make sure to get loads of good pictures, get a few pictures of the scenery, the activities your doing, your hair and makeup, or your outfit, food and explain what you did on your day out.

Q&A -

Questions and answers, so on your social media websites write a post telling your readers that you are doing a Q&A and what questions they have for you, once you've done that and gathered all the questions together answer them on your blog. Getting to know the person who writes all these blog posts is a great thing and really interesting. I haven't done one yet but I'd love to in the future so my readers can get to know me more.

OOTD & MOTD -

Outfit of the day or Makeup of the day, get pictures of your whole outfit and remember to let your readers know where your clothes are from, same with your makeup get a picture of your face and let people know what products you have used to achieve this look.

LOOKBOOK -

A lookbook is a few different pictures of your outfits so you could attach pictures in your post for an outfit you have worn each day of the week so they can understand what your style is like on a daily basis. 

Recipes -

If you have a love for cooking share your recipes and how you made a meal or a cake or anything you want! People love learning new recipes.

Beauty Tips -

If you have any beauty tips to share go ahead teach us something new, I love discovering new beauty tips and I'm sure I say that on behalf of readers to.

Haul -

If you've been on a shopping trip take a few pictures of what you have bought, or items you've bought over the past month or weeks, also let you readers know where it was from and how much it was. 

Room Tour -

I know this might sound like a strange one but it's pretty popular on YouTube and blogs, so if you love your room why not do a room tour, if it's abit messy you should probably straighten it out abit. 

Get ready with me -

Step by step take pictures and write the products you have used for a get ready with me post. It would probably would be easier doing a get ready with me video'd so if you also have a YouTube channel you can do that to! 

Makeup haul

Hey guys!

Hope your all having a fab day! My days been abit boring so I got a blog prepared for you guys! These are just a few things I have bought over the past couple of months that I really like and think they are worth sharing with you ..

MAC EYELINER IN BOLD -

I bought this on eBay for £8.

I like this eyeliner it's so easy to apply and as you can see the wing is literally on point ..

This eyeliner is a shiny one, I don't know what it is I just prefer matte black eyeliners but I still defenitly love this eyeliner and I think it's worth it's money! 

BOURJOIS 13 TOMBEE A PINK -

I like this nail varnish, the colour is a very nude pale pink and that's what I like I have only used it once and I must say it lasts good, apart from if you catch it on anything it could chip - baring in mind this happens with pretty much any nail varnish!!

I use two coats, I wouldn't even say you need two because one coat looks fine! I add two for it to last longer and I think it looks more neat if you add a couple coats! Overall a good nail varnish (sorry guys I forgot the price) I know I'm an idiot!! I did buy it from boots though, also you can probably buy it online or any drugstores near you! 

SOAP & GLORY LOVE AT FIRST BLUSH PINK, POP & PEARL -

This blush is so cute! I bought it from boots for about £8-£9 I think. As you can see it has quite a few colours in it I literally grab my brush mix in all the colours and put some on my cheeks.

It adds a lovely glow and it's not to dramatic either it doesn't make you look to shimmery, and it doesn't make your cheeks go really pink like a gnome lol!

TOO FACED CHOCOLATE SOLEIL MEDIUM/DEEP MATTE BRONER -

I bought this on eBay for £5! Bargain I know! I got really bored of the same old bronzer I had been using for ages and really wanted a new one, so I was going to get hoola from benefit then I looked at reviews and people said it can make you look muddy and patchy and I really didn't want to waste lots of money on something that could possibly make me look like a hot mess! So I was looking at bronzer reviews on YouTube and I came across this, people were saying how good it is so I thought I'd give it a try! Once I tried it I absolutely loved it, it doesn't make you go patchy and it also makes you look like you have a real natural tan!

Also good for people with oily skin that don't want to look shiny because this is a matte bronzer.

CHANEL VITALUMIERE AQUA SHADE 20, 30ml -

Ok so same thing happened with my bronzer, I got bored of the same old foundation and wanted to try a new one and heard a lot of good things about this, I bought this on depop market for £18! If you don't know what depop is, it's a new app, where you can buy swap and sell your stuff all you need to do is download the app and make an account! I got this in shade 20 and it is a perfect match! So I have a lot of stuff to say about this foundation, good and bad things here I go ..

Let me list the good first!

So when I first applied it it made my skin look really dewy and glowing I didn't really want to even apply a powder on top of it (but I know what my skin is like it would get mega oily if I didn't) 

It really matched my skin perfectly, it has a yellow undertone which makes your skin look so tanned and natural I can't even explain it, it just looks flawless! So id say it's medium coverage, usually I want full coverage but with this I just don't care it makes my skin look so flawless and new one layer is enough for me.

Now let me tell you the bad things

So when you first apply it, it really does look amazing, like you have hardly any foundation on, but through out the day I can feel the oiliness on my skin, I looked in the mirror a couple hours after applying it and I looked abit oily, and where there are dents in my face I noticed that the foundation had kind of sunk into them and it made my foundation look like I had wrinkles on my face a little bit. 

I like this foundation a lot, but as my skin is quite oily I think I'm going to save this for the winter instead of using it now and see how it reacts to my skin then as my skin will be a lot dryer in the winter! 

If your skin isn't really oily I would say this foundation is perfect for you, it's a shame I had to have oily skin !! 

BARRY M LIP LINER NO - 5 

I loveeeeeee this lip liner!!!!! It's so easy to apply, it's really pigmented and it's such a gorgeous colour. It makes my lips look really full, and it looks so natural aswell, it's like a natural nude lip colour so it doesn't look dramatic or full on. This cost me about £3 or £4 I think from boots. 

It lasts a couple of hours on my lips before I have to apply some more, but even when I do re-apply it, it's not fully rubbed off! 

So there's a few of my favourite products I have purchased over the past couple of months guys, let me know what you think in the comments below and opinions on the products to! 

Thank you
