Aghh man! Total fail right now! Ive got really organised with blogging since my kick up the butt and planned out and had planned to do a beautiful post for you about what I am taking on holiday to Mexico with me... except FAIL... I havent packed yet!

I am totally not this person! I am normally packed weeks before we go but this time I am so unorganised! We leave for Heathrow on Tuesday where we are staying overnight before our flight and I haven't even touched the case yet!

But I promise if you follow me over on Instagram (@mybeautifulforever) I will be instagramming OOTD's while I am there - hello free wifi!

:)

When we first looked at pricing up the different things for the wedding I knew straight away that I wanted to do my own makeup. I did toy with the idea of getting a make up artist in for the day however when I looked at the prices it wasn't something I felt I wanted to justify.

You all know how much I love makeup and to be honest the idea of researching and shopping for makeup excited me. When I started looking at ideas for wedding makeup, I decided to ask my friends and family for gift vouchers for my birthday in February and decided on Debenhams.

So heres the top tips I picked up on for wedding makeup:

• Avoid SPF - obviously if your getting married outside this is going to be something you want to consider however SPF causes flash back on photographs which causes you to look white washed - not what you want on your wedding day. 

• Shop around - I did a lot of research into different products. Most high end beauty counters will offer you a sample of things like Foundation which is great to take away and try at home with any other products you may have. 

• Wear White - If you are going to beauty counters to have a trial for ideas, wear a white tshirt. Your going to be wearing white on your big day and it will give you an idea of what its going to look like. 

• Go Outside - Again if your having a trial done in a department store go outside and have a wonder around before you commit to anything. Department stores often have florescent lighting which can make your makeup look completely different. Go and have a look in the natural light. 

• Dont rush into anything - I have done a lot of research into different looks, different styles, different products. I wanted to look into lots of ideas before I settled on one thing. Don't be afraid to shop around. It would be quite easy to go into a department store and get everything from one stand when actually different brands have different products which work well together. 

I have suffered really badly with allergies for years. I have very vivid memories of doing my GCSEs and A Levels in the height of the summer with a pack of tissues firmly strapped to myself at all times. Grim times. If only I could wind the clock back 12 years!

I discovered Bee Pollen last August when Adam and I started a business with Forever Living. The Bee Pollen is one of the best selling products and came in our initial business box.

Right ok.. how is it the 1st May already! This year is going wayyyy too fast. I can not believe it. Its weird, everyone said to me that once christmas was over it would go really fast on the countdown to the wedding but naive little me didn't believe that for a second! I thought it would drag but they were right! I can't even believe its 48 days until we get married! 48 days! Thats 6 weeks and 6 days! Aghhh!!!

I'm so excited. Everything is starting to come together now. I have a to do list the size of my arm but I am surprisingly chilled about the whole thing.

Since I finished my course I've been getting round to do a lot of things, including organising my blog. I especially want to start blogging the lead up to the wedding. I've finally (after years of laziness) started to get my skin care in check and have been organising make up. I've been trying new products, rediscovering old ones and I am finally at a point where I have wanted to sit down and actually write about things.

I have also started to discover more about the business. I have loved discovering all about what this business can offer and for someone who loves discovering new products it is perfect! I have been using some of the products on a regular basis now and can really see what an amazing difference they have made! More about that soon.

Its only 17 days until we go to Mexico (still not started packing), we still only know where we are staying and have no idea about flights etc but hopefully we should find that out this week! Not gonna lie its making me twitchy! :)

Anyway, you should start to see me a bit more now! I have things plotted so keep your eyes peeled. Hope you guys are all ok. Fill me in on your gossip.
