What have you done for them lately!

This may be a ‘BeautyBlog’ kinda but I am not condoning any superficial behaviour! These days its hard to find people that are just happy being who they are if you do find a few people then you are the luckiest person in the world.

From when I started high school I never really cared about how I looked I was in school to learn and socialise and thats and I am grateful that we wasn’t allowed to wear makeup, the people who I was friends with were very superficial and should I say shallow, very up them selves and in my eyes would do anything to be popular at the time I didn’t realise this until my last year. But I was lucky enough to make one friend in year 8 I think I have told her so many times that I don’t know what I would be up to if I didn’t meet her

seriously because at that age I feel the people you be around make you who you are… So I am grateful that I managed to walk away from those people without even knowing or caring…
Kids now days don’t know what happiness is its sad because they never will no matter how hard we try to teach them they will never know what’s real or what’s right! They are brought up by the media and unless you homeschool your child and don’t let them watch tv have a computer or a mobile phone… Kids don’t know how to act right in front of people they act like they can have a adult conversation and act like they are grown and can do whatever grown ups do! It’s not cute for a 12 year old to be talking to elders like they are their best friends! If you talk to a child like a adult they are going to think they are adults…
I can’t stand parents that bring their kids up on superficial things… “It’s important for you to look good!” Or “You have to be perfect” this is what I call wasteman parenting!
Your a wasteman parent if you say you bale your child out everytime they get into trouble!
Your a wasteman parent if someone has says to you a child if for life not just for Christmas…
Your a wastman parent if your in the same country as your child and see them once every two months or
even less if you could!

You are a wasteman parent when you teach your child that having money is the most important think ever! “I don’t want you to be working in a supermarket” (even though some of the places pay a lot more then your average retail job)

When someone talks to me about how they don’t like the way they look or they are complaining about their skin colour or their weight that makes me not like you I’m sorry but I can’t be around someone that doesn’t like being around themselves… And a lot of the time these same people seem like the most confidant! They seem to be soo good at pretending they are happy… I don’t know!
I think this will have to be a weekly rant thing for me lol I don’t even know if any of this makes sense but anyways!

You can’t be beautiful on the outside if you are ugly on the inside!

Beauty fades!

Alpha Deco fibre lash

At first I was quite sceptical about the whole natural fibre thing I can admit that I thought it can’t do much better then a couple layers of mascara… Most of the natural fibre mascara I had seen where quite expensive ranging from £15-£30 and I wasn’t feeling to spend that much on a mascara it’s not needed in my life. But I found a set on eBay that was relatively cheap I got it for around £6.50 with free postage which is quite good considering that’s how much a good mascara costs… So when It came there was no instructions quite worrying but it’s kinda common sense but for people that struggle in that area I’m going to tell you how to use it!

Step one make sure your eyelashes have no mascara on I don’t actually know why it just seems like this is something you should do and I think you should start with a clean canvas lol

Step two apply the transplanting gel like you would mascara not forgetting your bottom lashes.

Step two apply the natural fibres to the tips of your lashes for a lengthening or all the way through for a more fuller dramatic look… Be careful the fibres can go into your eye and if you wear contact lenses this is not fun you’ll be testing how waterproof it is with your tears trust me I experienced this and it was not fun!

20130703-230454.jpg that’s what the fibres look like

Step three apply another coat of the transplanting gel to seal the fibres in and also to stop them from getting in your eyes…

Repeat these steps as much as your want for your desired effect. I do two coats but one is enough for everyday more coats give you that dramatic effect that fake lashes gives your without the hassle!

Dinner with the Pout Queen :)

So on thursday I went to a friends house for dinner. Her and her family are so loving and caring, I consider them family because they such an amazing people, every time I see them I have such a good time. So I just wanted to say thank you to Emelle for cooking such a beautiful meal, and that I would like to hire you as my personal chef please and could you please start tomorrow x

For starters she made garlic, lime and chilli king prawns served with freshly sliced avocado and lamb lettuces dressed with sour pomegranate sauce with a slice of garlic bread.

I don’t like prawns so she was kind enough to make some Halloumi instead so my starter looked like this…

This alone is something I could eat all the time as a actual meal

Then after a few laughs and arriving on memory lane it was on to the main

I think I am definitely going to give it a go I let you know how it turns out.

Holland & Barratt
Aloe Vera Gel
Bio active skin treatment
This has to be my all time favourite product… definitely a must have in my beauty bag.
For years, I knew that the gel from the aloe vera plant was a good healing agent when applied to burns, scrapes and wounds. But I have come to learn just how much more I could use aloe vera gel for.
I would like to thank a really good friend of mine for recommending this to me.
USING ALOE VERA GEL FOR SKIN
Apply the gel from an aloe vera leaf directly onto skin abrasions, cuts, sunburns, scalds, blisters, cold sores, rashes, and insect bites to help fight bacteria and avoid infection. The gel also has the ability to soothe pain and regenerate skin cells to promote healing with no or little scaring. Apply aloe gel 2-3 times a day to the area/wound until it is healed.
When I get my eyebrows threaded within the next couple of days I get a rash on my forehead not attractive at all, I put some aloe vera gel on my eyebrows after I get the done and it helps reduce the rash a lot.

Use aloe vera gel for general skin care. Use the gel alone or along with your favorite skin cream to help better soften and moisturize the skin. Because aloe regenerates skin cells it is also known to reduce wrinkles, eczema, acne, sun/age spots, and other blemishes.

I recently found out that it can be used to reduce stretch marks.

I have only one negative thing to say about this product if you apply to much it becomes flakey so I’d say if you are going to use this on your face then only apply a really small amount.

I also found out it could be used for hair care as well as skin care

USING ALOE VERA FOR HAIR

Applying aloe vera gel to the scalp is a good treatment for dandruff, seborrhea (dermatitis), psoriasis and hair loss that has resulted from these conditions.

Use the gel from an aloe vera plant to substitute your commercial hair gel rub or comb small amounts through your hair and style as usual.

If you don’t know about aloe vera now you know I bought mine on offer I think it was in the penny sale so you buy one you get the second one for a penny so I payed £7 for two 200ml tubes, really good price considering the amount things you can use it for.

 

 

she’s just a cosmic girl or not

The last time I dyed my hair was around december, I used Preference wild ombre which because my hair is quite dark didn’t work very well :(…
I wanted to try a colour I hadn’t tried before so I was really exited to try this Superdrug Colour Vibrance in Cosmic Purple this would have been £4.09 but its on offer for 2 for £5.
So my hair is naturally dark dark brown so by looking at the colour indication chart my hair was supposed to go deep cosmic purple.
Firstly you need to squeeze the creme colour into the creme developer make sure you mix it well, make sure you remove the nozzle tip.
by looking at how much dye was in the bottle I could tell it wouldn’t be enough so if you have hair past your shoulders I’d say buy two boxes if you want a full complete coverage, but if you just want to use this as a touch up one box will be enough.
put protective gloves on which are provided in the box, make sure you are wearing a old t-shirt or  place a plastic bag or towel around your shoulders to protect your clothing.
Get rid of all the knots in your hair using a wide toothed comb.
The first thing I usually notice is the smell, I thought that it would have a strong chemical smell but surprisingly it wasn’t that bad.
Apply the mixture to your roots then add the rest of the dye trough your hair. If you have any dye left over then squeeze the remainder all over your hair and give yourself a little head massage.
Leave the dye to develop for 30mins… I tend to dance about or watch youtube videos to pass time.
Once you have danced your 30mins away add a lil water and work the colour through your hair then jump in the shower and rinse your hair with warm water until the water runs clear this will take a while so be patient.
shampoo your hair ensuring all dye has been removed, apply the intensive colour conditioner and leave for about 2mins then rinse. The conditioner definitely puts the moisture back into your hair and leaves it feeling nice a smooth.
This was a really simple process all you need is common sense I guess.
I was quite disappointed with the outcome of this hair dye my hair went more of a reddish brown not at all purple this was probably because I didn’t have enough product. I’m not going to say I wont try this product again I am willing to give it another go just because the colour on the box is sooooo beautiful.

Am I the only one???

Am I the only one who carries a crazy amount of I pointless stuff in my bag… I literally have 8 lip products 2 mirrors 2 hand creams random bits of paper a empty pencil case 1eyeliner loose change the list can go on for days :0 I

MAC SEA & SKY MINERALISE EYE SHADOW

ImageDSC_0243

So firstly I’m not a big fan of MAC products… I feel like it is overpriced and overrated I didn’t purchase this duo I was given it… I’m not sure if you can still buy these or if they have been discontinued but if you are interested in buying one I have seen a few on Ebay… anyways back to the review.

“SEA”

When I first saw this eyeshadow I automatically fell in love with the colour… the deep blue “Sea” is more like a royal blue its such a beautiful colour that could be used as a eyeliner as well as a shadow also it is very pigmented and very workable. If you wanted the colour to pop even more then it does you can add a drop of water to make it more like a cream shadow.

“SKY”

Again this colour looks beautiful it has light blues dark blues and lilac’s all mixed in the half. As a shadow by itself I am not to keen on the colour but if you use it as a highlight or blended with another deeper colour like a purple or teal it looks amazing…

When applying these shadows I felt like the colours moved to easily… this may have been because I didn’t use any MAC brushes;) but all joking aside the colours blend very easily together and I am very pleased with the product however I still think that MAC is overpriced and I wont be purchasing any of their products any time soon.
