Random Photo


Ok so no one actually tagged me to do this post :/ but i saw it on my friend kellys blog and thought it would be fun to do myself! lol

When i looked in my 4th photo folder and then the 4th photo i was horrified to see this picture, how ever i thought i would post it as i am an honest person and will just have to cope with the shame lol.

There is you will be glad to here a perfectly innocent explanation for this photo. I took the picture of my bra (Primarni special may i add :)) because i had bought the wrong size and decided to sell it on ebay. It was brand new with tags and cost only £4.00, yet some one paid me £6.00 and £1.25 postage even though they knew it cost me less!? Happy Days for me though so i am not by no means complaining.

So there you have it, i did warn you im quite random :p

Ultra Bland Cleanser yay or nay?




















I recently purchased the Lush Ultra Bland Cleanser from one of my many spur of the moment splurges :)
I wasnt recommended this product however I have heard that some of the other Lush skin products are worth investing in such as Baby Face as recommeded by Dressjunkie and Kelanjo. I generally dislike using any products on my skin and tend only to use baby wipes. This is mainly because i am lucky enough not to have problem skin, so i dont really feel the need for many facial skin products and fear they may create a problem :/ However lost in the moment I decided to bite the bullet and give this cleanser a whirl and to my relief, it is great!
The texture of the cleanser is quite thick and has tiny exfoliating particles that clean out any makeup or dirt from the pores really well. (I was appalled at the amount of 'crap' i would have left on my skin!). The product doesnt have a particularly pleasant scent to it because of the all natural ingrediants and no added perfumes, but by no means is it horrible.
Overall i think this product is really good as it cleanses and moisturises all in one and so left my skin feeling really soft and smooth, so can see why it is one of the Lush cult products! It costs around £8.76 for 100g so isnt cheap, but doesnt break the bank either so its all round YAY! :)

Tantastic! :)








Ok so i thought i would do a post about my fab new tan :). Like many I have naturally pale skin and unfortunatly this more often than not turns purple with the cold. Along with this i have also been blessed with what i call 'cornbeef legs' lol. Yeah thats right, you know what im talking about and it is not a good look.
I was up until last september, quite a heavy sun bed user until after my holidays i just couldnt find time to use them. I then decided to try and embrace the paleness but with my friend kelly's skin colour becoming more bronzed by the day i couldnt ignore the need to be brown too! lol
After a recent visit to River Island to find a new outfit i realised that my skin colour seemed to make all the outfits i tried on look so bland.
After being recommended Doves summer glow tinted moisteriser by Kelly (kelanjo), i decided to give it a whirl. I found the product really easy to apply and didnt take very long to soak in. The scent of the cream doesnt have a strong fake tan smell to it as the others i have tried, instead it is more subtle with the traditional dove domineering.
I really recommend this product because i find that the result is really natural looking and develops evenly. I bought the medium to dark skin lotion because i new the results would be more apparent. I applied the cream in the evening after showering and by morning the resluts were great. I have included pictures to show what my skin looked like before and after appling the product on 3 occations. I have to point out that the photos really do not do this product the justice it deserves, so i would recommend you try it out for yourselves :) xx
