Madisenrosebeauty1- Smoking....?
Oh, Hey guys, fancy seeing you here (i'm a dork haha)
Maddi Bragg, is a successful youtube beauty guru who has seen herself in limelight for something not so sweet recently. I think this was a long time coming, from Maddi's behaviour in the past few months, thats not my place to say but.... yeah.
Maddi Bragg, is a successful youtube beauty guru who has seen herself in limelight for something not so sweet recently. I think this was a long time coming, from Maddi's behaviour in the past few months, thats not my place to say but.... yeah.
5 days ago, Maddi took to instagram to post this photo of a cutesy apology to her subscribers and viewers. Along with the caption: I am sorry for letting you down and admit that I made a mistake. I am improving myself everyday and want to thank you for all the support.
I feel like Maddi is just growing up. Ok, I am essentially a year older than Maddi and I went through the same stage at 15 (not that long ago, i know, but....) and I regret that now, and I hope that Maddi will come to terms with what she has done in the future and realises it was a huge mistake, Maddi is an accomplished, beautiful young lady, and I really do love her.
We also don't know the events that have gone on in Maddi's past and i'm sure if we had an insight into it we might understand her more. I don't really feel 100% comfortable with talking about what we do know about Maddi's past because thats her own private life.
I know that many of her friends such as Amanda (makeupbymandy) and Alexa (Alexa Losey/ smokypinkleopard) will be there for her through this devastating time, I'm confident that they will keep her strong and help her discard of her mistakes. I also hope that Maddi's mum is ok, this is no way that a mum should find out about her daughter doing illegal drugs, and nowadays drugs are easier to be put into underaged hands than cigarettes and alcohol, especially here in the UK.
I don't want to go into all the details but what I do want to say is, I think for Maddi this has been a long time coming, she has been acting differently in the past few months or so and I believe this has a contribution towards the horrific event. Like all of the super edgy, white girl situation is adding up to this. Also we don't really know the people she is hanging out with so we don't know if peer pressure is a problem for Maddi.
I really do wish her the very best for the future and I hope that we still continue to see a dedicated Maddi, uploading and staying sweet and sassy and growing up with grace!
see ya sooooon,

My First Time
Hi guys, gosh I feel like I haven't posted in forever, but I've seen this going around the blogging/ you tube community and I thought I'd give it a whirl...(By the way this isn't anything to do with my first time having sex, just saying)
By the way, yes, I did steal these questions from Zoella, simply because i'm not creative enough to come up with my own, ENJOY....
My first word: 'Hiya' and 'Dada'
My first teddy: a leopard called 'Leopy' (I know, creative) and I still have him now
My first friend: Other than the kids in the neighbourhood and my huge family, I think my first real friend was a girl called Sophie Balmer and she went to my nursery.
My first school crush: I did have a crush in nursery on a boy called Richard... is that weird, little bit. But my first real crush I think was in year 6, so I was about 10/11 and his name was Morgan.
My first kiss: I was in year 7 (11/12) and my friends dared me to kiss this boy that I didn't even know that well and his name was Marcus.
My first celebrity crush: Zac Efron because when I was younger High School Musical was all in and I used to have a full on HSM room with posters of Zac all over.
My first boyfriend: I had my first boyfriend when I was 14 and I'm still actually with him now and his name is Joe
My first concert: Was in 2011 and I went to see Justin Bieber...
Hope you lot enjoyed that little post, I know its only small but It's summer and 30 degrees outside, see you next post,

Mid Year Resolutions ♥
If your wondering what the hell I'm going on about when I say 'Mid Year Resolutions' let me explain in the best possible way... Basically I feel like I've been going wrong with life at the moment, like... me and my mum have been falling out a lot, which means me and my step-dad have also been falling out a lot and I don't really feel like going to school or out of the house much really. When this happens I try to get my self on track by just making myself a list of where I'm going wrong and what I'm going to do to correct it so... kinda like 'New Years Resolutions' but its not New Year its Mid Year...
1. I need to start to clean and help around the house.
2. I really need to stop being cheeky to my parents, no matter how hard I find it, I NEED TO BE RESPECTFUL! And live by this cheesy 'Tumblr' quote!
3. I need to smile and be confident.
I think this one is better if I explain it in a little further detail... I've been so grumpy lately and I feel like I haven't smiled or had a good laugh in a while... and I am ALWAYS laughing, also I hate my body, I know that I need to lose weight, I'm pretty lucky at school because people are kind and don't tease me about it at all, but i know that I'm unhappy in myself, which brings me on to my next resolution....
4. BE HEALTHY!
I've started to exercise (running and stuff), and I'm actually really proud of my self because today I ran 25 minutes without stopping! To most of you this may sound a bit.... crappy... but considering how far I've come, I'm proud!
5. Stop being so materialistic!!
Just putting this out there guys, my family aren't poor and I do go on holiday a lot and I do have a fair few designer items but... Sometimes I really annoy myself, I'll be scrolling through Instagram (AKA my addiction) and i'll see pictures of people in my year at school saying that their going abroad twice this summer and then I scroll down again to see 'Just been shopping, New purchases' and then about 1,000,000,000,000 items of clothing from Topshop and Urban Outfitters! This leaves me thinking... 'It's so unfair how some people have such perfect lives, with huge houses and amazing clothes and loads of holidays' So.... I explained this to my mum... And she gave me the best advice anyone has ever given to me she said as follows 'Lyd, just because someone seems to have all the clothes and money and holidays and boasts about it all over the internet doesn't exactly mean they have the best life on the inside, be thankful for what you have and who you have and don't let people trick you into thinking the grass is greener elsewhere because it most certainly isn't' If you take nothing else from this post, please take that quote!
I'll let you know soon if I get on well with living out these resolutions.
Thanks for reading, I enjoyed writing this one...

YouTube Beauty Gurus ♥
Ok, so... This is my 2nd post, and I'm pretty proud that I'm keeping this up (Yay! go me!). This post is going to be about my obsession, YouTube beauty gurus...
1. Zoella
My favourite YouTuber would have to be the amazing, beautiful, charismatic Zoella/ZozeeBo/Zoella26484649743, Haha jokes! But she's just great!
Zoe is just all around great, she's really down to earth and so normal. I think the first time i started watching Zoe was maybe last summer-ish! Since then i've become OBSESSED with her! My favourite video that Zoe has ever done has to be the "Anxiety and Panic Attacks''. Now... I don't have panic attacks or anxiety but I know it helped so many of her subscribers! It was such a brave video and I look up to her so much for doing that! Also she has a really hot brother called Joe he also has a YouTube (ThatcherJoe)! If you want to you can subscribe to both of them...
2. madisenrosebeauty1
The second favourite YouTube beauty guru is Maddi Bragg, She's only 14 but, I think she has so much ahead of her and will succeed and go far!
I just love Maddi. I think a lot of people give her a hard time, especially recently as she's taken a short break from YouTube! She works so hard on her channel and she's only 14 guys, lay off! Maddi is so pretty and cute! I don't really have a favourite Maddi video, she varies her video's so much and thats why she's one of my faves! But I love it when she does OOTD's because her style is amazing
3. tanyaburr
Tanya is actually quite a famous YouTuber, she recently hit 1Million subscribers on YouTube along with many others!
Tanya is SO sweet! I think she's the most positive and fun person out there! She mostly does makeup tutorials of celebrities but she does the best job ever! I feel like Tanya works so hard on her channel and always connects with her subscribers through Twitter, Instagram, YouTube etc. She also dresses beautifully and classy, and i LOVE her style! One of my favourite of her video's is the ''Makeup Collection and Storage'' I literally watched it all the way through with wide eyes and my mouth open in shock! She has the best makeup collection ever! You all probably knew this anyway if your subscribed to either of them but she's engaged (i think) to Jim Chapman and they are the cutest thing ever!
4. MacBarbie07
Bethany Mota better known as MacBarbie07 once the queen of YouTube forever the queen of YouTube in my opinion!
Beth is so beautiful, i love her cutie style! I think me and Beth have a lot in common, in the way that we like similar things and I also think we use similar makeup techniques! A lot of people say that Bethany thinks she's the queen of YouTube, in my opinion she is! but I believe Bethany is so down to earth and humble! One of my favourite MacBarbie07 video's would have to be ''favourites'' video's I feel like she puts so much thought into them! and she always does a giveaway which is so thoughtful! She tweets her fans a lot too which is sweet! Beth's positive outlook on life makes her videos so interesting and fun and subscribers say she's immature, for me this just means she's not growing up to fast and is enjoying life!
5. fashionbylani
Lani is a YouTube newcomer and doesn't have an astonishing amount of subs but i think she will go far with her YouTube!
Ok, I'm just going to put this out there straight away, ALOT of people say that Lani just copies other people like Maddi (madisenrosebeauty1) and Bethany (MacBarbie07). My opinion on this is that Lani is pretty new to YouTube and is still finding herself... maybe when she has been doing what she does for a while maybe she will find herself! I like Lani and I think people should give her a chance! My favourite of her videos would have to be the ''DIY: Beach Waves Spray'' I have to say that I tried it and it worked really well on my hair so thumbs up to Lani!
So... Thats it for my ''Favourite Beauty Guru's'' i hope this inspired you guys to check them out and sub! Thanks for reading
