What I got for Christmas 2017

Hey Chickens,
Today's blogpost is basically just going to be me sharing with you all what I got for Christmas this year. I am in no way trying to brag, I just want to share with you all what I was so lucky enough to get for Christmas this year and I also have split-up parents so if it seems like I have quite a large ammount of presents, it is becasue I get presents at my mums house and my dads house. I actually really like doing these posts for myself to look back at and just quickly, I'm supposed to be uploading this on boxing day but to be honest, I have no idea when this will be uploaded but anyway, lets get into this post.

At my Mums house in my stocking I got-
A packet of pens
A notebook
A small pencil case
A water-spray bottle
Pet Sematery 
A flamingo cosmetic bag which had a lip balm and two bath bombs inside
Some chocolate and a Push Pop 
And a packet of these small, natural coloured boxes








The presents I got at my Mums house were-
Baby Driver
The Walking Dead 2018 calander
A Christmas box which came with heaps of really cute Christmas decorations in it
BYS Glitter eyeshadow palette
Samwise Gamgee Pop Vinyl
A pair of pink pjs
A pair of grey jeans
A blue cami/slip nightie 
The new Diary of a Wimpy Kid book
A trolli lollie stocking
A set of matching three bag set-
It came with a purse, an over the shoulder bag and a weekender bag, they all came seperatly but were from the same collection and if you were wondering they were from the brand Colette Hayman
Off my Brother I got this really cute white bead bracelet that has angel wings on it
Off my Nan I got some money and a chocolate stocking

















The presents I got at my Dads house were-
A black backpack with embroidered flowers
A rose gold purse
A denim cut off vest 
A pair of dungarees 
Nude by Nature Sunrise brush set
Australis Metallix eyeshadow pot in the shade 'Guns and rose petals'
Australis Mixologist palette 
Australis Colour clique primer in the shade 'Pink Lady'
I got some money off my Dad, but I also got some money off my Dads side of the family and my Dads partner
And I did get another chocolate stocking








If you did want to know where any of these items were from so you could get them for yourself or someone else, just comment down below and I'll reply because I basically know where most of these were from or you could contact me through Instagram or email, whatever floats your boat.
I do just want to say again, I am so grateful and thankful and lucky to be able to have such a giving Christmas, I am not trying to brag or show off at all, whenever I do polls on Instagram stories about doing hauls and showing what I got for Birthdays and Christmas, everyone over there seems to mostly want to see it.

I just want to quickly add, I know I've been saying a lot on my Instagram that I've been getting really bad likes and followers activity. I know it is not about all the numbers and it doesn't matter but it really annoys me because I put so much effort into it and people that follow me and are active don't like my posts. Another thing is, I have 1,394 followers and my most recent Instagram post has 7 likes. People with 450 followers get 60 likes per post. I think what I'm going to do is put out on my story whoever doesn't like my recent posts and doesn't stay active I'm just going to unfollow or whatever, but I do always try and not get caught up in the numbers of everything but this has annoyed me.

If you were wondering, I am actually posting all of this week as well. Last week I posted everyday and this week I'll be doing it too up until Monday which is New Years Day and I'm undecided if I want to keep posting daily after that, I am just going to see how things go like time and blogpost ideas. This year I do actual want to do a back to school blogpost series but I'm just going to see how that and I'll do some polls on Instagram stories about it.

Sadly, our time has come to an end. 

Thank-you so much for reading this blogpost, I hope you did enjoy it. This weeks blogposts are just going to be all about my favourites of 2017 then later in the week like on the weekend, I am going to be doing some blogposts about reflecting on this year and what I want for next year in my life like goals and shit. On that note, I love you all to Jupiter and back but until next time, bye

#christmaswithemblogs Merry Christmas

Hey Chickens,
Merry Christmas Everyone !
If you do celebrate Christmas, I hope you have such a nice day. It doesn't matter why you celebrate Christmas, if it is for religious reasons or just for giving or receiving presents and having some nice food, Christmas is all about love and caring for people. If you don't celebrate Christmas, then I really hope have you a great day anyway whatever you are going to be doing.

We need to acknowledge and help all the people at Christmas time that need it. It breaks my heart to think about families that don't have enough money and can't afford to put on the Christmas that they would like too. It breaks my heart to think about all the homeless people who will be on the streets, without any nice presents to open or a nice Christmas meal to eat. It just breaks my heart to think about everything who is living in poverty and is struggling in whatever way. 
If you are in a situation like that, or your parents are, I really hope that you have a nice day anyway. I wish all the best for you and your family and I really do hope that you still find joy in life, but if you do need help there are so many organisations that can help you.

I love you all so much, I hope that you are all having a wonderful day today (I've said that like ten times). I do hope that whatever situation you are in, you still can have a nice day anyway.
Merry Christmas Everyone

#christmaswithemblogs Present Wrapping- Part 2

Hey Chickens,
So before we get into the actual post, if you haven't read my part 1 blogpost to this go check it out before reading this
http://emmaleigh27.blogspot.com.au/2017/12/christmaswithemblogs-present-wrapping.html
Basically, in this blogpost I'm just going to be going through the presents that I've wrapped this year and talking through my co-ordination. When I'm writing this now it sounds so boring and honestly it's going to get better, like it will be better than it sounds.













These are most of the presents for my family and just how I have wrapped them.
So this year the wrapping paper I choose was just a natural colour with white writing on it (the writing just says things like Merry Christmas). Then the ribbon I choose was really simple as well. It is just like a string type material with red string wrapped through it and honestly, I was going to tie a bow around the presents with the ribbon but I didn't have enough ribbon for that. Then the gift tags I got I love so much, they are so cute. The sayings are so cute on them but all of it kinda matches and goes well together. This is just my opinion, but I really love how all of this just goes together and I think it looks really nice.

Ok, I was right before, this blogpost was actually kinda boring. In my head I thought this was going to be a much more interesting post but I guess it wasn't. Just a quite note, all of these items were purchased from Kmart like the wrapping paper, ribbon, gift tags. Also please just ignore my horrible wrapping and applying ribbon skills, look, we aren't all perfect at everything :)

When I'm uploading this, it is Christmas Eve and I truly hope you all are having a wonderful night. I'm going to talk more about this in my blogpost tomorrow but it breaks my heart that some families don't have enough money to afford Christmas and some people aren't with their families because of all different reasons, but I hope whatever your situation that you have a wonderful Christmas eve.

Sadly, our time has come to an end. Thank-you so very much for reading is post. I do understand it wasn't the most exciting but, hopefully you enjoyed it anyway. Please, I hope you have a nice Christmas eve. I love you all to Venus and back but until next time, bye

#christmaswithemblogs Star Wars- The Last Jedi Review

Hey Chickens,
Today's blogpost is going to be a review on the new Star Wars movie. Now, a lot of reviews say that the movie is really bad (just look at the reviews on IMDB) and I quite liked the movie, I didn't think it was that bad. Also, just a little heads up, I'm horrible at writing reviews and telling people about films/books because I always go to tell them what happens and like ruined things. I don't mean to do this but because I've seen it, I forget that they haven't seen it. Anyway, you can keep reading because I won't say anything about the story line, so don't worry about spoilers.

I did actually like this movie in the Star Wars movie franchise, unlike most peoples opinions. I think with almost everything, you have to see it or read it or experience it yourself to know if you like it or don't because everybody is going to like and dislike different things. Luke Skywalker is in The Last Jedi (This isn't a spoiler, it has him at the very end of The Force Awakens) and I actually really liked his storyline in the movie. There was a few funny jokes through-out the film and omg, some of the creatures they had in it were so cute and cool and I honestly just want them in my life.
One of the places in the film (Where Rey found Luke Skywalker) reminded my so much of Lord of the Rings. Honestly, I was like expecting Frodo just to come walking around the corner, like because the island was all like hills/mountains and it had all the greenery (I've just read back through this and I sound like an idiot).
Overall, I do think it is worth the money to go and see it at the cinema.


I just need to quickly explain this about last nights blogpost because I couldn't fix it and it did kinda annoy me. So last nights blogpost was actually underneath the blogpost which was uploaded on the 21st of December. The reason why was because, I'm an idiot and accidentally uploaded that blogpost on the 21st then reverted it to a draft and uploaded the blogpost that went up that night. For some reason, when I went to go upload that post last night, it went back to the day I first uploaded it.

This is a very serious topic that I'm about to talk about and I'm only going to briefly mention it now because I really want to make this a separate blogpost about this.
Joey Graceffa uploaded a video today about suicide because a childhood friend of his had committed suicide. This video was very powerful and honestly it did make me cry when I was watching it. Although Joey did make the statement that 'Suicide is selfish' and I simply do not agree with that and everyone has their opinion. The reason why I don't agree with that is because if someone commits suicide they will hurt everyone that loves them but they are hurting- mentally or physically. I do understand that things can get better and that you can talk to someone and get help but take all of that away, they are hurting and things could get better for them in 30 years, which would be too long for anyone.
Again, this is just my opinion and every single person has a different opinion. Comment down below your opinion on the topic if you want to. Suicide just makes me so sad and I do encourage everyone to go watch Joeys video because it made me feel so sorry for Joey and for everyone affect by that death. I am going to write a blogpost about this topic and mention everything in it and give links and all that stuff.
Here's a link to the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfHPRa6uB9c&t=606s

Sadly, our time has come to an end.

Thank you so very much for reading this blogpost. It started out as a movie review then turned into something quite dark but I do hope you enjoyed it and if you didn't then let me know. I've been loving uploading everyday so I think I might keep it up, but I'll wait and see. I love you all to Jupiter and back but until next time, bye

#christmaswithemblogs Best Christmas Lip Colours of 2017

Hey Chickens,
In today's blogpost I am going to be sharing with you all, in my opinion, the best lip colors for Christmas this year. These lip colors are mostly reds, there is one more peachy/pink color and one is a bit more off a berry red color, but I feel like all of these colors will suit every skin tone for the festive season.
Just a quick little disclaimer- I brought three of these products with my own money and two of them were sent to me. The two that were sent to me are the Stay Matte liquid lips, but I am not being payed or anything to add these into this blogpost or talk about the. 
Rimmel 'Oh My Gloss' in the shade: Rebel Red-
This I don't always use because I'm not the biggest fan of glosses but this is a very pretty color. It isn't very intense and has a nice little shine to it. It doesn't stain your lips like some red lip colors do and it is very easy to take off. The applicator is just a regular, normal lip gloss applicator.
Rimmel Stay Matte liquid lip in the shade: Coral Sass-
This is more of a peach color when you first apply it, then once it has dried it becomes a little bit more pink. It is a very Summer type lip color, and Christmas in Australia is in Summer so I feel like you can get away with this color. It can be quite hard to get off your lips and does stain them a bit and because it is a liquid lip, then be prepared for your lips to become very dry.
Rimmel Stay Matte liquid lip in the shade: Fire Starter-
I absolutely love this pure, fire truck red lip color. When it dries up onto your lips, the color becomes a little bit less intense but it still has a lot of color to it. It does stain your lips, but it could be worse. It is easier to get off your lips than the shade 'Coral Sass', I do not know why, but that shade sticks to your lips, this shade doesn't. This shade honestly looks really nice and I love it.
Rimmel The Only 1 lipstick in the shade: Listen Up- 
This lip color is more of a berry red that has a pink accent to it. I'm not the biggest fan of this shade (even though I brought it, what the hell was I thinking) mainly because it is a strange color. I also have a very light skin tone, so it looks out of place on my lips. Although, I choose this because a friend of mine tried this and they have a olive type skin tone and it suited them a lot more than it did on me. 
Rimmel Kate lipstick in the shade: 22-
I'm not actually sure what collection this lipstick is from but basically is has 'Kate' on it and it has a matte black container that it's in. I know that this is going to sound very stupid but I don't really this formula. I love the color, it is a beautiful red but I hate the feeling on my lips. It is also extremely staining of your lips, very hard to get off and anything it touches like clothes, your not getting it off. But this is a very beautiful festive red.

Last week I started watching American Horror Story. Now, I started off with the first season which is Murder House and I don't know how I feel about it. The themes are very mature but I guess I liked it even a bit because I started watching the second season which is Asylum. I do know one thing about this series is that I have fallen in love with Evan Peters. He is such a fantastic actor and I personally think he is very good looking. Another person in the show I love is Zachary Quinto, again, he is very good looking and a very good actor.
I'm writing this on the 17th of December and I'm currently up to episode 6, season 2 so by the time I have uploaded this, I'm going to have watched more of it and I'll keep up updated, even though literally nobody cares.

Sadly, our time has come to an end. Thank you all so much for reading this beauty/Christmas themed blogpost, hopefully you enjoyed it. Obviously, you aren't restricted to wear this stuff at Christmas time, you can wear this all time of year because they are petty lip colors. I love you all to the Sun and back but until next time, bye

#christmaswithemblogs Best Lip Color Ever ??!!

Hey Chickens,
Today's blogpost is going to be about a lip color from Rimmel that I personally think is generally an extremely good lip color. This isn't even just me saying I think this is a nice lip color, I've had many workers in shops ask about it when I've been shopping. Friends have said it is a really nice lip color. On Instagram, I've been it on many different skin tones and it looks great on all of them. I just realised, I've written all of this and haven't actually told you what the liquid lip color is, I'm an idiot. Anyway, lets get on with this blogpost.

This liquid lipstick that I get banging on about is the-
Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Lip in the shade 710 Latte To Go.














This is the type of product where you have to go into store and see it for yourself and because I was sent this by Rimmel to do a makeup look (I ran out of time to post that) I would actually have never even brought it and that upsets me because I love this color and I haven't stopped wearing this. I've had so many compliments from it and everyone needs to own this in their makeup collection, it is just as easy as that.
I actually love these liquid lips, I was sent 7 of them and they are just beautiful. The colors just look really nice and they literally would suit all skin tones which I love.

Sadly, our time has come to an end. Thank you for reading this blogpost, comment down below if you want me to do more posts like these where I chose a product that I think is an ultimate favorite. Hopefully you enjoyed this blogpost, if you do end up buying this liquid lip then please tell me if you love it too. I love you all to Mercury and back but until next time, bye
