Woooo i'm back online.. (Face and Outfit pics)

.. and i have a confession! Wow its been over a week since i've been able to blog, but i'm glad to be back. Sadly i did break my shopping diet but the money i spent was paid for by ebay funds(does it still count?!!!) so technically i didn't really spend any new money. I'm going to do a haul post tomorrow.
I hope everyones ok? As for me work is super stressful but i have a meeting on Thursday so that should make things a bit clearer for us all. I went out drinking for the first time since new year this weekend and i cannot remember a thing, i was passed out in bed by 12 complete with a bleeding leg. I thought i'd post my outfit and face of the night to get into the swing of things again!

First up is my face. I went for purple eyes and red lips and i'm pleased with how it turned out, i'm trying to grow out my fringe now, hence the hair being pinned back. I was going to wear some false lashes but i couldn't be bothered so i tried the Maybelline mascara in the yellow tube and was really underwhelmed, i know people like this but it just didn't work for me.

I'm not keen on this photo but its the only one i took of my outfit so here goes.

Dress-River Island, Shoes- Kurt Geiger

You can see the sequins better in this photo without them being super shiny. Excuse the huge drink!

I'm not sure whoch way round this photo is meant to go! I can't wait to catch up on everyones blogs, i'll be doing that tonight and tomorrow xxx

Bargain Mascara alert!

I am so impressed with this mascara, it being 17 Maximum Volume Mascara. Its perfect for everyday wear and gives me long thick lashes for less then £5.
Not the greatest photos but i am really impressed with this. It won't replace my Max Factor False Lash but its ideal as a cheap day to day alternative.
Whats your most used mascara?

Review: Lush Smitten Handcream


The product
Lush Smitten Handcream £6.10 for 100g

Whats the hype?
'Protective, almond scented hand cream. Lush customers asked persistently for a lighter, daytime hand cream scented with the same mouth-watering fragrance as Snowcake soap. Ask and ye shall receive. Smitten is made with natural oils and butters for a longer term benefit for your mitts. It was named after a customer's favourite word, because to be smitten is a lovely feeling and a mitten protects your hands! It works brilliantly and smells fantastic. Use it regularly for nice soft mitts' Taken from the Lush website.

Pros
Its gorgeous smelling
The cream has a really thick consistancy.
Only a tiny bit is needed each time.
Leaves hands really soft and smooth and the feeling lasts.
Its made of lovely natural ingrediants.

Cons
Its a little bit greasy.
Its a fresh product so can only be kept for a limited time.

Would i repurchase?
Probably not as i love my cheapie Coconut handcream too much! I would buy it as a present for someone though.

Bloody internet!

Apparantly for the next week or so they are upgrading the internet connections in my area so my connection is set to be pretty rubbish so if i'm not around then thats why. On the plus side it will stop the temptation of internet shopping. I'm 1 week into my shopping diet and so far so good!
I have scheduled a couple of reviews over the next few days. As soon as its working properly again i'll be catching up on everyones blogs.
In the meantime i leave you with some lovely ducks in my local park!

Thank god its Friday!

I'm so glad its the weekend? What is everyone upto? Continuing with my spending diet/saving money/sorting out mission, i am going to have a huge clearout of my wardrobe and be strict with myself. Also i have a massive load of things in the garage which have been there since i came home from uni so i might even try and get that sorted too. Should have some more bits to ebay and being busy will stop me shopping!
