Make Up Revolution 2nd Birthday

So it is not a secret that Make Up Revolution is by far, without a doubt my favourite make up brand. With that in mind you can probably imagine my excitement when I got the email inviting me to their 2nd birthday. Before I talk about how amazing the party was I just want to say how astounding it is that this brand has come as far as it has in the 2 years it has been around and I for one am very proud to say that I was one of the many, many people that helped make that happen. I'm a sucker for a MUR product, what can I say?

So first off my outfit for the event was very pretty, I'm not one for getting properly dressed up, (mainly because I don't often get the chance to) but I actually felt pretty good about myself on Thursday night, which is a very rare occurance. So below is a picture of my outfit (minus the jacket); my dress is a little New Look number, the boots are from Primark and my jacket was actually given to me years ago and after using my brain and looking at the label saw that it was actually from Next. Plus my make up was all Make Up Revolution except for the eyeliner which was MUA and also my nail polish was Body Shop. For my eye-shadow I used the Mermaids Forever palette and for lips I wore the No Perfection Yet which is a beautiful plum/berry shade.

                                 
So the venue that the party was held at was an amazing little place in Leicester Square called Café De Paris. We were greeted with a complimentary cocktail which tasted as good as it looked and then we got to see some current and future products; one of which being the Fortune Favours The Brave palette designed by BritishBeautyBlogger for Make Up Revolution.

So after some complimentary drinks Adam Minto gave a motivational speech about the last two years of Make Up Revolution, where he spoke about how far the brand has come and how it has reached the level of success it has in such a short period of time. Then he introduced Daisie Smith who then spoke about working with the brand and also introduced us to a new competition that I'm very much going to getting involved with.

After the speeches and announcements Adam took the time to meet everyone and get pictures, we were then treated even further to a DJ set from Radio 1's Scott Mills. He was amazing and we danced for a majority of the night, at the end Scott even stayed to meet people.

There was also a little booth type set up where you could make your own GIF sets, they even had props, obviously everyone took full advantage of this and it was a lot of fun. The GIF's are up on my Instagram @captainfurby if you would like to check them out.

Lastly I want to say thank you to Victoria, she also made the night amazing and it was so nice to share my first blogger event with my best friend. Even though we didn't actually manage to speak to more than one other blogger, the atmosphere was amazing, we genuinely had so much fun and before we left we both got 'little' goody bags which I did a haul for on my Youtube channel, I will leave the video down below. 

TV Shows I'm Obsessed With

So I realised the other day that I'm far too obsessed with TV shows and I get hooked on them very easily. I'm going to make two lists; one with shows that have finished but I still re-watch and shows that are currently still airing.

So firstly there's only a few TV shows that have finished that I would re-watch. The main one is Buffy The Vampire Slayer. This was and probably always will be my favourite show, I watched it first when I was about 8 years old and I'm pretty sure that's the reason for my obsession with vampires. Obviously with Buffy comes Angel and that's another show I was obsessed with. My mum actually has the full box sets of both of them so I've lost count how many times I've re-watched them. (Also fun fact: Alyson Hannigan was the first girl I ever had a crush on and she's the reason I started questioning whether I was 100% straight). My favourite characters were definitely Willow and Spike and my least favourite was Riley cause he just annoyed me in the end and I was so glad when he left the show.

Then there was Charmed which fuelled my love for witchcraft - at one point in my childhood I used to pretend I was like Paige and could orb as well as do witchcraft. My mum also has this box set on DVD so I've re-watched this one a few times aswell.

I think a pretty obvious one from my childhood is Friends. Now what with it being repeated A LOT on TV over the years plus me having the boxset (we have a lot of DVD's in my house okay) I've watched this so many times that I can talk along with the characters on the screen. I can never choose a favourite character because they are all so amazing but Smelly Cat is one of the greatest songs ever written.

The OC was the show that made me fall in love with love. Seth and Summer are literally relationship goals, I need to find someone as perfect and geeky as Seth.

Sabrina The Teenage Witch was literally my favourite show growing up. I cried for days when they cancelled it, I need them to put the show on Netflix so I can binge watch it.

So now on to the shows that are still currently being aired (and when the time comes to cancel them it will break my heart)

The Walking Dead is probably, definitely in my Top 5 shows. Zombies are my thing and I'm a little bit in love with Norman Reedus, although it is very annoying that the one character I don't like seems to be the only one that can survive anything.

Then there's The Vampire Diaries and The Originals which just continue my love for vampires, plus how can you not be in love with Damon Salvatore?

Teen Wolf, which ignoring the death and werewolves, I want to live in that town. How many towns have a population that beautiful? Stiles, Scott, Alison, Lydia, Theo, Isaac - literally all of them.

Arrow and The Flash are probably two of the shows I'm most hooked on at the moment, plus whenever they do cross-over episodes I get so excited - you'd think I was a little kid at Christmas.

Pretty Little Liars is definitely the most confusing and infuriating show I watch, but I literally cannot just stop watching it. I think Caleb is probably my favourite character in the show.

Shadowhunters is the last show I'm going to mention in this post. This is only half way through the first season but I'm so in love and hooked already. I've read the first 5 of the 6 book saga and I've watched the film (which disappointed me) so I was a bit wary about watching the TV show but overall it has not disappointed me. There is a few things that I'm not happy with but I am trying not to compare too much, but we'll see how that goes.
