My Halloween Costume

Hey guys! So I was going to do a video on my Halloween costume but yesterday I had no time because all my friends got ready in my room and it was so hectic that I didn't get a chance to film! So I thought I was just show you what I got on my blog!
So obviously I'm dressed up as Alice in wonderland! I know super original haha.. I just bought the costume on eBay and I think it cost around £20 .
Also in the picture I posted on Instagram with orla people were asking what she was and she was goldilocks but she wasn't wearing the wig in the picture haha :) what were you for Halloween?

LUSH - Grease Lightning

Hey Guys, today I'm going to talk about the 'Lush Grease Lightning Spot Treatment' !
So if you guys don't know what this product is, its a treatment for pimples etc, it comes in the form of a gel and contains tea tree and witch hazel, and your supposed to use this when you feel a zit/pimple before they come to the surface!
First off I'm just going to say that i like this product! When i first used it for the first few times i really didn't like it and i thought i wasn't going to use it, i was putting too much of the gel in one area, and it was feeling really weird on my skin, like if i smiled it felt like it was 'cracking' on my skin, but soon i realised that i should have been using a smaller amount on my skin, but you still feel like your skin has been tightened when you have this product on!
I feel like this works to a certain extent, i think it really helps with redness of the skin, alot but sometimes it doesn't always keep a spot from coming and doesn't really do much at all if you already have an active breakout, but i still find myself using this frequently because it has a really refreshing feel to it and does help with the odd zit! 
I think that i would repurchase this product again, but i would like to try and see if there is any better products than this on the market before going back to this. I wouldn't call this a holy grail product but i feel that it gives you more of  a peace of mind effect.
I have been using this product for a few months now and it really lasts a long time cause you really only need a thin layer of the product!
Ill link the product here and you can go check it out for yourself! (and no this was not sent to me for free or for review, i bought it myself!)
Also leave suggestions for blog posts!

How I Deal With Haters

Hey Guys,
So today I wanted to talk about something that I always get asked, 'how I deal with haters'. 
I get asked this question so much, and I've never really talked about it because there isn't really that much too it!
All i usually do is delete any of the hate comments i get and block the user. I think that this is the best way to deal with the problem because if you don't block the person they are just going to keep leaving bad comments on your videos.
Also people always wonder if they ever make me upset and no, it literally goes straight over my head, if they think an anonymous comment over the internet is going to put me down they can think again haha!
People always comment on my appearance, usually saying 'you wear too much makeup' or 'your teeth are terrible', and first off, if people think i wear too makeup they must have never seen someone my age walking around the mall, i know people that wear full on black makeup and black lipsticks and winged liners (and heels) at my age and people think i wear too much makeup haha! and who are they to tell me that i'm wearing to much makeup, its my face i can decide what i thinks to much makeup for me!
And i know some people are going to say its constructive criticism, and i can deal with someone saying something in a polite way, but if someone is going to call me 'ugly' or 'stupid' then im just going to block them! Simple as :)
So the main point is that i don't ever really acknowledge the haters because it's not worth it and replying to them is only going to give them what they want and that is to get to you, and i know i sometimes reply but i usually say something like 'there is no need to tell me this' or something like this anyway i would never go and reply saying something nasty back because two wrongs don't make a right! 
well anyway thats my brief opinion on the subject, i didn't cover everything but maybe i could do a video on this topic if you guys would like that?
let me know :) 
thanks,

Furry Friend Tag!

Hey Guys! 
So today I'm going to be doing the furry friend tag which is just a list of questions about your pet!

Questions!

1. What is your pets name?
    Reina (Spanish & means 'Queen'!)

2. What kind of pet is it and what breed?
     She's a dog. She is half Labrador and half Red Setter! 

3. How long have you had your pet?
    About Three and a Half Years, ever since she was a puppy!

4. How did you get your pet?
     Ok, so ever since my older brother was young, he wanted a dog, and my  parents were always like 'no, it's too much work blah blah blah' and he kept on asking, then when we moved to Ireland he was still asking and they finally gave in! So they were searching online and stuff for dogs and we were going to adopt another dog from a dog pound which was a collie and was a few years old, but then my mom's friend told her that her friend from work had a dog that just had pups and said we could have one! She lived on a farm and the dogs were kept in a barn! We went to see them and we were looking at all the pups (there was like 8) some were black some were red, then my mom picked up one and it had this really cute face and had really distinct facial markings and she said to my brother that he should get this one and everyone agreed, so he picked it! The dogs were too young at this stage so we had to wait a few weeks until we could take it home, but after a few weeks we went back and collected her! 

This is her the first night we got her! She was so small!! <3

5. How old is your pet?
    Reina is 3 and a half! her birthday is the 11th of January.

6. What are some quirky things about your pets personality?

    She is obsessed with rocks, like OBSESSED. It's all she ever thinks about and she always wants you to throw them for her which isn't good because they're starting to ruin her teeth so we're trying to get her out of that habit! 

7. What does your relationship with your pet mean to you?
    I honestly don't know how i could live without her! Life would be so boring, she is part of the family and is just the cutest thing ever and makes you laugh because she's so silly!

8. What are some of your favorite past times with your pet?
    Well she loves to go walks and she gets walked everyday, also i just like to sit beside her and pet her and sometimes she falls asleep beside which is just adorable!

9. What nicknames do you call your pet?
    She doesn't have any nicknames!

Well thats all the questions and i hope you enjoyed this blog post! :)
