I got New Glasses!


 That time came around again, another eye test.
I have my eye tests every 2 years so I was really happy to finally get new glasses as my old ones were getting really lose.

But anyway I got the OSIRIS B40 from Specsavers.
 
The reason I choose these are because I like the big nerd indie style frames, they are very modern and look really stylish. I am very pleased with them and love the orange colours.
I wear my glasses for reading and watching TV only, I don't wear them all the time.

Skin Therapy 3 in 1 Facial Wipes

Hey everyone!! :)

Today I'm going to show you an alternative or cheaper, facial wipes.

 I came across these when I couldn't find any other bigger brands on offer, they were 2 for £1 which is really cheap for how good they are! So I brought my first pack of 2 for £1 and I tried them out and thought they were great, so the next time I went in I brought more!! 6 Packs more to stock up my beauty supply.

If I didn't know better I would say these were branded facial wipes.

The actual wipe is thick (not thin like other cheaper wipes I have tried) and if you look closely you can see the circular detailing that claims to cleanse, tone, moisturize and delicately fragrance your skin, all in one go and they do leave my skin feeling soft and refreshed.
I got the fragranced pack and they do smell very nice but if fragranced is not for you or you have sensitive or irritated skin they also do fragrance free aswell.

RED!!

Hello everybody!! It's been along time since I last made a post (about a month), the reason for this is my laptop has been having a few problems lately and I have been trying to get it fixed.

Anyway enough about that!

I named this post RED because I have dyed my hair red... like WOW 'RED'. 

This is the second time I had dyed my hair red. The first time I had it for about a year and a half, the reason my hair colour changed because I went blonde for a while, than I got pregnant with my son and I couldn't keep up with retouching the roots every month with a small baby, so I had to keep it simple and mangable and go back to my natural hair colour Dark Brown.

But recently I have wanted to go back to that lovely colour red ... 
So I did!!

First I had to decide how I was going to do this! I knew just putting a dye on it wouldn't take and I would be lefted with a brown auburn colour. I wanted a more notable and bright red so I had to pre-bleach it first. I put two boxes of L'Oreal Preference - Les Blondissimes Extreme Platinum Dye on my hair and I hoped for the best!.
I lefted the bleach on for the recommended time which was about 40 minutes.
  When I toke it off my roots where platinum blonde and the middle to the tips where a light brown orange color, I was happy about that because I didn't think it was going as light as it did.

I didn't dye my hair straight away after bleaching it, I lefted it 2-3 days before I put the red on.
I used the new XXL HD Intense Colour Permanent 33 Scandalous Scarlet.


 I made up the bottle and it looked bright orange so by this time I was starting to get nervous as I didn't want my hair to go that colour, I put it on anyway and I
 wrapped my head in tin foil to keep it all in place. Every 10 minutes I checked to see the results and it was getting redder YAY panic over! I lefted it on for about a hour and half, not the recommended time of 20-30 minutes.
 I'm happy with the outcome and I'm loving being back red :)
