Let me introduce myself!

Hiya there bloggers! (Thought I'd slip in a quick notion to my Britishness in my first sentence on this site!)
I just wanted to introduce myself so that you all know who the woman behind the words is. I'm Nikki, a British teenager living in England (chants are going off in my head so far screaming ENGLAND-DE-DE-DE-ENGLAND!) And welcome to my Beauty Blog! (YAY!)

The reason that I wanted to start a beauty blog in the first place was because it looked like a jolly good deal of fun and I was excited to share my opinions with the world! Golly Gosh that sounds self conceited, but I promise you it is only because a firm belief of mine is 'Sharing is caring!' (A classic move I use to steal food off my friends too!)

And also because, I love reading other beauty blogs and watching lots of youtube videos about beauty and make-up however I noticed the other day that reading/watching these things make me compulsively want to keep purchasing make-up! (Which is an unhealthy obsession as much as I hate to admit it.) And obviously this is not good, being a teenager, all the money I spend on make-up is from my own savings and it is terribly hard wanting to always buy expensive products from brands like MAC or NARS when you don't have the money. And as people are constantly telling me, WE ARE IN A RECESSION!

And I thought to myself, 'Hey Nikki, why don't you set up a blog talking about less expensive make-up that people can actually afford?' And by jove, my blog was born! Being a teenager, it is hard to always be buying make-up when you have an unhealthy obsession and so I wanted to share my opinion on cheaper alternatives to make-up so that I don't have to give up my hobby, but can just make it burn a smaller hole in my pocket :)

I hope you all got the gist of what I was saying, this is just a blog about affordable make-up and beauty. As much as I enjoy watching and reading a lot of lovely people talk on about MAC etc. not all of us are as well off as those who I watch/read especially!

So anyways, thank you for reading my explanatory albeit long intro, I hope you enjoy reading my blog! I'm hoping to start up a youtube channel also, so I'll keep you all posted on that!

Cheerio ol' chaps!
