Top movies from a boys point of view.

My boyfriend decided that the movies I put in my movie Blog Post were wrong, so I said he could do his own version of his top movies. So without further ado here is top 8 movies from a boys point of view.

8)The Great Escape
   A great war movie about prisoners of war, this true story is definitely worth watching!
7) Ted
    A brilliant comedy film with a brilliant story line! Really good performance by all of the cast, Mila Kunis who is really hot (who is not as hot as hot as me, Maddie) and Mark Wahlberg who I don't think has ever made a bad film.
6) The Inbetweeners
    Again one of the funniest films I've ever seen and this time its British! Great TV show and Great film. Can't wait for the second one!!
5) Harry Potter
    I do have to agree with Maddie on this one, I cannot specify one film as they are all great!
4) Saving Private Ryan
    This film won bags and bags of awards, with brilliant performances from Tom Hanks and the rest of the cast. The film tells the story of a Soldier who loses his 3 brothers in the war, a small group is then sent to look for him and send him home. This film is not a true story, however it is still a brilliant film and one of the only fiction films I would recommend.
3) Band of Brothers
    This was originally a 10 episode TV series, which was then made into a DVD. Again a true story, Band of Brothers highlights the journey of one particular company within the paratroopers of the US army in world war 2. Many familiar faces star in this series, it is again action packed with a hint of comedy.
2) Goodfellas
    One of the best 'Gangster' movies ever made. This film is a true story, which makes it all the better for me  as Historical films that are fiction do not appeal to me. If you watch this, you must also watch the 'Henry Hill:The real goodfella' The film is based on the life of Henry Hill and the documentary features an interview with Henry Hill himself. A violent action-packed film with elements of comedy, this film is a must watch!
1) Shawshank Redemption
    This movie is one of the all time greatest movies. Need I say more!

Movies.

So when your bored at home what's the best thing to do? Watch a movie! If your stuck on what to watch here are my top 7 favourite movies

7) Friends with Benefits 

    This movie is my go to movie when I am depressed or feeling lonely as it is what every girl wants......to be dating Justin Timberlake! Mila kunis is also gorgeous, I watch this movie and think, how come they both got all the hot genes, what happened to mine! 

6) Love Actually!

    This movie is perfect for a girlie night in or a sleep over! It's one of those feel good romantic movies that will have you crying and laughing both at the same time! 

5)Easy A

   This movie is insanely funny and a really easy movie to watch when you have had a long day! I adore Emma Stone, she is my absolute idol and she is the main reason I love this movie but also that it represents(on an exaggerated scale) the struggles of being a teenager and trying to fit in with your peers

4) Paul

    This sci-fi comedy is one of those movies that will have you rolling round with laughter, Nick Frost and Simon Pegg always make hilarious movies but this is by far my favourite!

3) Polar express

    This movie is my absolute all time favourite Christmas movie (closely followed by Santa Claus The Movie, but I didn't want 2 Christmas movies on my list) I love the magic of this movie and the songs and everything! This movie really keeps the magic of Santa alive even when you are a little to old to believe in him anymore! 

2) The Incredibles

    This is one of the best Pixar movies by far, the story is accessible for all ages, my 7 year old sister loves it, I love it and so does my 50 year old dad! I am still praying for the day they will make a sequel.....I feel however that that may never happen :( come on Pixar, what's going on?!?!

1) HARRY POTTER

I can't give a specific movie that is my favourite I love them all, the story, characters, the magic! Everything, I love it all! I grew up with it and even though I can quote every movie word for word, know the stories inside out, it still gives me goosebumps when I watch them! If you haven't already I would also recommend reading the books! I dreamed about going to Hogwarts when the movies first came out and I know it's sad, but I did cry at the end if the last movie, it was the end of an Era! If you haven't seen the Harry Potter movies....WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS! 

So their is a run-down of some of my favourite movies, I will probably think of more once I publish this but oh well! I hope this gave you some ideas of new movies to watch or helped you remember movies you once loved! I am going to go and watch all 8 Harry Potter movies back to back....see you in 17 hours.....

Dark circles// Concealer review// Seventeen Phwoarr Paint

I suffer really badly with dark circles under my eyes and I have done for as long as I can remember! It's not (normally, although it can add to it sometimes....) due to lack of sleep it's completely hereditary from my dads side of the family! I have tried everything to try and get rid of them, from eye cream to cucumber, from teabags to puréed potato(don't try it it didn't work and it was disgusting and messy). Finally I had to reside myself to the fact that nothing was going to get rid of them and I would have to cover them up! For the first few years of my teenage life I absolutely coated my eyes in concealers, foundations and powders and needless to say, I looked a bit like a crayon! Finally I settled on using a liquid concealer base with foundation on top, this worked relatively well but the problem I had was the fact that it wasnt very long lasting and by the end of the day I was back to my panda self! So you can imagine my elation when I found a concealer that claimed to be 'heavy duty'! Although I wouldn't normally recommend heavy duty concealers as they are awful for your skin, desperate times called for desperate measures so I decided to buy it.

This is not a liquid concealer and this was something that I was slightly concerned about as I like liquid concealers because I find them much easier to blend in and spread entirely across the eye! This concealer was more like a cream or paint i suppose (their is a picture below, i cant describe it) and as stated on the front was very heavy duty! However, to my surprise, it was pretty easy to blend in , not as easy as liquid concealers but easy enough that it wasn't a problem! The product on it's own looked okay, it gave a slightly shiny look when looking at it close up but on the whole pretty good! After I put my foundation on however
it blended in really well an looked very natural! Unlike my old concealers it stayed on really well all day and I didn't have to re-apply once which was really nice! Unfortunately there are only two shades which they do it in, which is fair and medium, luckily fair fitted my skin colour perfectly but my friend was less fortunate finding that the fair was to light and the medium to dark! The retail price is £5.49 which I think is very reasonable for the product as I am very pleased with it! I would definitely  recommend It for those who, like myself, suffer from dark circles around their eyes and need a good cover up!
