13. What do you like to do in your spare time apart from blogging?
I volunteer at a local animal shelter. Ive been doing it on and off since i was 14 and it is so worth wile. its definitely one of my favourite things to do. i also love reading,going out for dinner and drinks and just spending time with Scott and my friends.

14. Best place you've ever been too?
California, without a doubt. Scott and i spent 4 months in Orange County in Southern California a few years ago, and it was the best experience of my life. I'd love to live there one day.

Orange County,California....

15.  If you could turn back time to any age,what age would you choose and why?
I'm one of those people who never wants to get old, i hate birthdays and hate the idea of 'growing up' . But id be scared to go back because I've seen too many movies about time travel and changing the future and stuff like that!! i would love to go back to the summer in California though, because although i made the most of it at the time , I would still love to relive it.

16. Ideal day?
Gosh, probably a bit of volunteering in the morning, then lunch and shopping with my friends which turns into cocktails!

Cocktail anyone??

17. Ideal Night?
Getting ready with the girls for hours before going out,blaring the music and making cocktails! Or dinner and cocktails with Scott, then some late night oysters. I'm not really big on 'clubbing'. I seem to be quite big on cocktails though! =p

18. Whats on your list from Santa this year?
I honestly don't need that much. I know I'm getting a Claireabella bag, new straighteners and Sigma brushes, so anything over and beyond that is a bonus!!

Sigma make-up brushes...

19. Whats Skincare products do you use?
I'm not actually very good with skincare-oops! i use Olay moisturiser, Soap & Glory products and Neutrogena Grapefruit cleanser. I should really use a better skincare routine!!

20. Whats your daily make-up routine?
I exfoliate, cleanse and moisturise, and then I use whatever make-up i want to create my look for the day!
Usually its Garnier BB cream, ELF HD powder, Nars Orgasm blush, Ud Naked Palette and 24/7 liquid eyeliner and right now Benefit They're Real Mascara!
