Hello

Sorry for being absent, I haven't had anything beauty related to post and I'd like to keep this blog for just that. I have enough places to vent my problems that I'd like somewhere that isn't for that!

Just a quick note to say my mood is rather low, I'm trying to fix it and I'll be back on track soon. So to cheer myself up right now (as it's currently 5.55am and I'm wide awake) have a picture of me and one of my wrestling heroes, Mr Mick Foley.

This was at the first date of his comedy tour, to which Mr Foley himself gave me complimentary tickets! I was a very happy bunny this day! It was such a good night, all the guys were hilarious and I didn't stop laughing from start to finish! I'll definitely be seeing Mick next time he's over for another comedy tour!


I would really like to change my url, as much as I enjoy it's wittyness, it isn't really anything to do with the content of this blog. If you can think of anything else, please let me know as I am rubbish at these kinds of things.

Won my first giveaway!

The first one I've ever entered as well so I'm quite chuffed. It was run by the lovely Maria and I have won an adorable pair of ladybug earrings and a lovely wee pair of flowery earrings. I'll get some pictures up once I get them in the post. I've been in a foul mood all day so this has cheered me up quite a bit. As well as chupa chups! Hope you are all good and had lovely weekends!

Free samples!

At my mums house just now and she always buys Glamour, Company etc but never uses the free samples. So I'm taking them home! ;)

I've got Perfection Lumiere foundation by Chanel, 2 samples of Rimmel's Wake Me Up foundation and a wash & mask cleanser from the big skincare mystery. According the magazine it was revealed on the 1st so when I get back to my computer I'll need to have a look and see what it was.

Looking forward to trying the cleanser but no doubt the foundation will be too dark for my milk bottle skin!

What samples have you tried recently? Yays or nays?

Alana must behave!

I'm trying to be very good just now and not buy anything that is not necessary, money is extremely tight right now. Hoping to get a job as soon as I can then I won't feel bad about myself wee things every now and then.

Been keeping it simple on the nail front. I found Sally Hensen Maximum Growth in Poundland a week or so ago, I couldn't resist buying it. Especially when my friend who works for Avon was going to get me it for a lot more pennies! So I've been cooling it on the nail front and just applying this, my nails are already looking much healthier! I love the wee sheen it gives them and they feel lovely!

Not my picture as it's too dark to try and use my webcam but just to give you a rough idea of what it looks like in case you rush out and get some!
I really do love this stuff. I usually hate 'naked nails' as I don't like my fingers/hands very much but the more I use this and shape my nails etc, the more I don't mind them as much as I used to.

Poundland you evil minx you!

I really need to stay away from Poundland. Well maybe one day...

These are todays purchases. Eyeshadow, blusher, lipstick, another cuticle care stick and a roll on blemish killer(?). All in all, not bad for a fiver I'd say!

Lovely wee Rimmel shadow, it's called Celestial Sapphire from the Glam Eyes range. I love the quilted pattern and the wee crown, so cute that I'll probably hate using it and spoiling it! I do love my blue shadows though so it's nice knowing I have this lovely shade should I need it.

I'm not usually a big fan of blusher as I'm so pale but I thought I could at least try it out. What with spring/summer coming up, my face should get a bit more colour to it so a wee pale pink blush might look nice on that.

The cuticle stick, I won't be able to try out until I soak my nails off, got some false ones in the post from ebay and couldn't resist putting them on! I've never done it before so it wasn't a fantastic job but it was nice to see what they looked like on and get used to them.
The blemish stick, I love already. Smells great and tried it on a spot that has taken my face hostage, it goes on really nice then dries up quite quickly so I'm hoping it dries it up and it goes away asap!

Monday madness!

Got a few things delivered from ebay and bought a few things too.

The lashes and gel eyeliner are from ebay. The liner has a MAC logo on it but it wasn't advertised as MAC on the site. It cost 99p so its either a bargain find or a fake!
The lashes look lovely! Nice and natural, not too over the top.

The lipgloss duo is from poundland, can you guess how much it cost? Haha. It's called spice coral. I've tried the colour side, its not too thick but goes on nicely. Gives a nice wee shine and feels really nice on too.

The orange tube is a nail and cuticle scrub pen, also from poundland. This is me trying to get my nails in a good, healthy condition. Well its a start!

The band and comb were a set from, you guessed it! Poundland! I needed a wide toothed comb so thought this looked perfect!

Have you bought any goodies today?

Monday nails

My friend Michaela did my nails for me on Monday night. I can't wait for all my false nail stuff to arrive, I hate them all being different sizes!

I only have my nail glue and nail cutters so its a start I suppose. Just need everything else too!
