Bows and Becki: ♥ Beauty Blogger Tag with PrettyLittleFashionista ♥

Today I am doing a joint tag with one of my good friends within the blogging community, Kirsty from PrettyLittleFashionista. I recently did a guest post for her and we decided we wanted to do a post together but we weren't sure what do do! So Kirsty came up with the idea of doing the beauty blogger tag - which I thought was a great idea as people from each of our blogs would learn about both of us! So lets get started!
