9 Movies from the Late 90s/Early 00s that I Still Love to This Day

movies from the late 90s early 00s

I found it so hard to put together a list of just 9 of my favourite, still favourite, movies from my childhood to now. However, I somehow did it. You may think of better quotes for each film but I just popped my favourites in.

1. Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game
A Cinderella Story, (2004).
I bloody LOVE this movie, I must know every single word that's said. When I really got into this movie, that was when I became a huge fan of Hilary Duff and then I moved on to loving her music too.

2. On Wednesdays, we wear pink
Mean Girls, (2004).
I wanted to add in so many quotes on this number. What else is there to say about this film? Again, I must know this one word for word as well. Every person of my age must have seen this film, and it was the number one film to put on at sleepovers. So fetch!

3. I'm Eve and you're my special friend 
Life-Size, (2000).
This was one of my most favourite movies as a kid. I'm still annoyed that the magic spell ended up turning the doll Eve into a real person instead of Casey's mother coming back to life. 

4. Uh, as if!
Clueless, (1995).
I remember my mum putting this movie on for me to watch and I instantly loved it. I loved their fashion, oh and why can't we have an app that shows us what an outfit looks like on before pulling out the entire wardrobe. Surely we've hit that stage in technology by now!?

5. Cookie?
Freaky Friday, (2003).
Ah, Freaky Friday. I didn't actually know there was an older version of this up until a couple of years ago when I saw it on the TV guide and put it on and I realised it wasn't Jamie-Lee Curtis or Lindsay Lohan. I just love when they switch bodies and have completely different lives.

6. I smell children...
Hocus Pocus, (1993).
I watch this movie throughout the year and I'm not even sorry. I thought they were meant to be bringing a second one out but I haven't heard anything since so it was probably rumoured. Come little children, I'll take thee away...

7. Do you like cheese?
She's the Man, (2006).
I love everything about this movie. Amanda Bynes' character poses as her brother to play football as the football team think girls aren't good enough. I have quite a good sense of humour anyway and I just find it hilarious.

8. Love is the closest thing we have to magic
Aquamarine, (2006).
I went through a huge mermaid phase at this time in my life. I also used to love watching H20 mermaids on Nickeloden. I actually still watch it on Netflix... shhh. I used to be super jealous of Aqua's hair and I loved the fact that JoJo was starred in the film too.

9. You want to know the difference between us? I have class and you don't
The Parent Trap, (1998).
Now we're on the last film, I didn't actually realise how many films I've included with Lindsay Lohan in. She was in most of the films from my childhood. I absolutely loved The Parent Trap and watched it whenever I could. I remember always wanting to be like Annie and having lockets like the girls.

What are your favourite movies from your childhood that you still love?

August Favourites

august favourites

Hello lovelies!

It's that time of the month again to pick out my favourite items which I've been using throughout August!

Lauren's Way Fake Tan-

I mentioned that I bought this tan in my end of the month haul in July. I have only ever used this once before and it gave amazing results, so I went and bought it again. This tan leaves me glowing and it is streak free, which is fab!


No7 Cleansing Body Polish-

I bought this out of boots for £9.99 but it is definitely worth the price! It smells so good and it really helps exfoliate ready for fake tanning. This is the best exfoliator I've ever used for both cleansing and for tanning. My skin feels so soft and smells so good after coming out of the shower. I'm going to be buying another one after this runs out!


Makeup Revolution Setting Spray-

I asked on twitter a few months back which setting spray is best. Bloggers replied with the normal fixing spray by Makeup Revolution. So I headed to their website and saw a new fixing spray for oily skin.

 I bought this instead of the normal one, because I obviously have oily skin and wanted to give it a go. No, it doesn't control my oily skin but it does keep my makeup perfect all day every day. So to be honest, I would've been better off buying the normal setting spray instead of the 'oil fix' one.


No7 Makeup Brush Cleanser-

This is so easy to use just to quickly clean your brushes. It dries quickly and gets most of the product out of the brushes easily. I would say that this is my go to product and I absolutely recommend this to anyone who needs a fast and easy cleanser.


Makeup Revolution Eye Primer-

Believe it or not, for the price this really works! It keeps your eyeshadows perfect all day and night. I suffer with oily skin so I usually get creases on my eyelids easily, but this is great for me - no creases and my eyelids don't get oily anymore! Hurray!

This also keeps my eyeshadows vibrant. Amazing primer for a cheap price! My new fave!


Real Techniques Pointed Foundation Brush-

This brush is way too small for applying foundation but I use this to dab in my concealer. I don't usually use brushes for my concealer, but I thought that I should put this brush to good use and it works a treat!


Netflix-

I've been watching Netflix since May and I'm absolutely loving it! I've been watching so much of it - especially this whole month. Since I've had Netflix, I have been hooked to Pretty Little Liars. From May I have watched all six seasons of PLL and I couldn't get enough of it. Earlier this month was the season finale of PLL which meant I could watch more things on Netflix.

I am currently watching Mako Mermaids. How old am I? Who remembers H20 Just add water? It's basically the same, except a little different but I bloody love it!
