It's not always easy to stay positive but it's important to find time to do the things that make you happy. One 'youtuber' I have been loving at the moment is Steph (https://www.youtube.com/channel). She has just hit 10,000 subscribers so go and check her channel out; I could watch her videos for hours! Steph made this TAG and I really liked the idea so thought that I would do it myself to spread some happiness. I tag anyone reading this!
Q1. What food makes you happy?
ICE-CREAM! I just can't resist a bowl of Ben & Jerry's and it never fails to make me happy.
Q2. What movie makes you happy?
I absolutely love the film Elf and I watch it all year round even though it is a Christmas film! This film makes me happy because it is hilarious and I always watch it with my family in the build-up to Christmas.
Q3. What song makes you happy?
If we are talking about songs currently in the charts I would have to say Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson ft Bruno Mars because the tune is so upbeat. However, any song by Ed Sheeran makes me happy because I he is so talented at the guitar and they remind me of my sister.
Q4. What item of clothing makes you happy?
Does my watch count? I wear it everyday and was really happy when I got it as a Christmas present from my Granny. (I couldn't find the link online but it is from asos)
Q5. What's your happiest memory?
It's hard to chose a specific time but I remember having so much fun with my sister and cousins at my auntie's wedding a few years ago and more recently I had a great time when I went to Madrid with my school.
Q6. What beauty product makes you happy?
All of my Real Techniques brushes! They just apply my make up so nicely and the Real Techniques Expert Face brush makes my foundation look so flawless.
Q7. What do you do to make yourself feel happier when your down?
I usually watch some of my favourite 'youtubers'; Essie Button always makes me smile and more recently I have been loving Steph's videos. Sometimes if that doesn't help if the weather is nice I go for a walk or bike ride in my village.
Q8. List 3 random things that make you happy...
1. My friends and family
2. Buying new clothes/make up
3. Going on holiday

When it comes it to hair, I try and keep the maintenance pretty low key. My hair type is very thick but can have the tendency to go greasy in the roots. I used to be very self-concious of this but have found ways to manage it. Using dry shampoo in between washes really helps to combat grease whilst adding volume at the same time- so I would recommend investing in one regardless of your hair type. Another solution I have found is to regularly change your pillow case and every week or so use a clarifying shampoo. The one I like to use can be found in Boots for £3.89 (TRESemme-Cleanse-Renew-Deep-Cleansing-Shampoo)

To say my hair gets knotty would be an understatement! Over the years I have struggled with finding a brush that will get through my mane. The only brush that works for me is the Tangle Teezer (Tangle-Teezer-Original-Professional-Detangling-Hairbrush) This brush is so great I would recommend it to anyone. Not long ago I discovered the Denman-Shower-Massage-Brush which I use when I have applied my conditioner. When I wash the conditioner off it leaves my hair feeling really soft and de-tangled. Another product that has helped me to manage the tangles has been the Pantene leave-in conditioner which I use after the shower on wet hair.
When I'm not using a clarifying shampoo and conditioner I like to use the Garnier Fructis shampoo and conditioner (which I couldn't find online but I brought mine from Superdrug). I don't really have a favourite when it comes to everyday shampoo and conditioners but I have tried many and I've found that generally Pantene works well for my hair type.
This is my current routine that I have been using for a few months but it probably won't stay the same as I like to change up the products I use. I'm sorry if this post hasn't been helpful to you because of your hair type but if you have any general hair questions that I haven't answered then feel free to ask.
Remember to keep me updated on what your up to and give me feedback on my blog by tweeting me (@etc_chloe) or commenting. Have a happy weekend!

This a collaboration blog post with Sophie from http://www.sophiesfashionn.blogspot.co.uk/p/about-me.html After you have read my post go over to her blog and check it out because she has done another post in collaboration with me! Anyway...
I get into bed and make myself all cosy; head just landed on the pillow, when I remember I've left my makeup on, or forgotten to moisturise. I'm afraid to say this has become a regular occurrence. But when you've had a long day at work or school it is easy to forget, you must agree? My solution to this problem has been to keep 'minis' by my bed so that there is no excuse to sleep with my makeup on...
Here is a glimpse of the current line-up:
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream (I couldn't find the mini online)
What are your bedside beauty essentials?

It's been a while since I've sat down with a cuppa and written a blog post but it's nice to be back...
Everyone that knows me is aware of my makeup obsession and I often get asked by my friends what I have in my makeup bag. I've never really thought about it too much but I do find it interesting seeing what other people have in their everyday makeup stash so I thought I might as well share mine with you.

I haven't included makeup brushes but I'm thinking of doing a blog post on how to clean makeup brushes so I can talk about my collection in more detail then. If you have a request for a blog post feel free to tweet @etc_chloe or email me chloeetcblog@outlook.com
