1st Birthday ~ Beauty_IWant is One Year Old!

So yesterday was my blogs first birthday! I genuinely can not believe it has been a whole 12 months since I decided I would start writing this little blog. And more than that I can't believe how far it has come. This time last year I never imagined I would have just under 100 people following me, and reading the post that I love to write. It's so strange to find that people enjoy reading what I have to say and I absolutely love being able to have this little space. 
It's my dream one day to be a writer and being able to express myself about the things I love and things that I go through really has helped me to develop my writing, it's style and myself too! 

I just wanted to thank everyone who has left me kind comments or liked my posts, it really is lovely to know that people like my content and I appreciate you all :)
I hope this year is just as good as the last if not better and I am not going anywhere! I love blogging even more now than I did when I started and only have more of a drive to continue. 

Stick around to find out how the second year of Beauty_IWant pans out, I hope it will be amazing!

I thought I would do a little round up of my favourite and your most loved posts, just to celebrate the journey of the past year.


It's so funny to look back and see how my format, theme and layout has changed. My writing style has definitely changed however is still the same in parts. I love how the aim of my blog was to allow myself a chance to be creative in a way I cant in my everyday life and how it also allows me to share my love of beauty and cosmetics with other like minded people :)
Overall I have to say the community it an amazing part of this 'world' we have online and I have met some lovely people so far.

I thought I would write out some aims for the next year so that I can look back and see how much further I have gotten with my blog in general.

  • Take more time to participate in group chats e.g on Twitter, to meet more people.
  • Be more organised and plan/draft posts so that I can post even when I don't feel up to it or have writers block.
  • Put more effort into photography and present my post more aesthetically (I'm a graphics student fgs, I should do this automatically)
  • Make more OOTD/FOTD, GRWM and follow me posts
  • Expand on previous point and do more lifestyle posts!
So I'll check back this time in 2015!! and see how well I've done with those. Thank you all again and I hope you have had a great weekend. The sun has been kind to us :)
