Suds Sunday!

Hey Guys!!


How's it hanging??

So it's Sundayy and we all know what that means....time to get bubbly in a bubble bath :D

For my bath today, because I haven't been well all week, I decided to use something that would calm me down and make me sleep easier so of course it had to be my Radox Sleep Easy bath soak which not only creates bubbles but also has hints of jasmine in so it's very spa-like :D


Oh I also used the rest of my Lush FUN in the gold one :)
After a thorough soaking, at least an hour, I used my Dove Summer glow lotion which gives the skin a gradual tan if you use it every day and of course I don't want to be suuuper pale when I go on holiday but I would like a bit of a glow and this is perfect :)


During my bath and applying of the lotion, I watched Pretty Little Liars. Now I stupidly started to watch this on I think it was Friday night at like half 1 in the morning, so it would be Saturday morning but ohh well :D anyway, I'm hooked. Well I say hooked, I haven't been on a binge sesh yet, but I have to watch an episode a day at least to keep me up to date with everything even though the programme is nearly over :'(


Thank you soo much!!

See you later guys.

My Pinterest :D

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

So no work for me again today...just stuck on the chicken noodle soup and lemsip but on the plus side I can catch up with my videos that I need to watch on YouTube :D

Also, I've been reallly into Pinterest lately and if you've never heard of it before it's basically an app that has 'pins' which can be pictures or links to websites or helpful hints etc. and when you see a 'pin' that you like, you can create things called 'boards' in which you store the pins. For instance on my Pinterest one of my boards is called 'Food' and if I see a pin that looks good or has a nice recipe on it, I store it on the 'Food' board and then I can look at it any time I want :)

And because I've had bugger all to do, this has been my life alongside Netflix and eating ;) but the one particular board I've been obsessed with is my 'Wishlist' board. On this board I go onto clothes websites and at the bottom of the item that I really want on their website is the Pinterest button and I can put them on my board with the click of a button :)

Not only is this reeeeallllyy addictive, but sort of motivates me to be more productive and teaches me that if I want something, like a new pair of shoes, I obviously have to work for it :') which doesn't really make sense when I'm at home being ill but I can't help that! haha :) 

So yeahh, if you want to go check out my Pinterest click here and you can even follow me so when I upload new pins onto my boards it will come up on your news feed and you can like the pins or even pin them onto your boards.

P.S. you will get addicted. You have been warned.


Thank you sooo much!!

See you later guys.

Didn't see that coming...

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

I'm...well...I'm ill :(

I was coughing a whole lot yesterday and I thought it was just a tickle and that it'd go away in a couple of days but no :/

My nose started to get blocked up and my head was pounding alongside aching in my ears so instead of going to work today I'm stuck at home all bunged up :'( but on the plus side these are some things that are making life a bit more bearable today:

- The Walking Dead
- YouTube
- Pasta/Potatoes
- Lemsip
- Joggers/Sweatpants
- On-line shopping

In the comments below, tell me about some stuff that makes you feel better when you're feeling poopy and also any remedies that make this stupid cold go awayy :D




Thank you sooo much!!

See you later guys.

Suds Sunday!

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

It's SUDS SUNDAYYYYY!!!!! Woop! Woop!

For my bath todayy I really wanted something that was really sweet and quite sickly rather than my floral/spa like smells and luckily I had some bath stuff from agggeesss ago and I thought I'd better use it up quickly and it's the Indulgent Hot Butter Fudge bath syrup, which sounds good enough to eat. P.S. please don't! :'D


Alongside my bath syrup, I used half of my FUN from Lush but this was the gold one which I believe was a Christmas edition... but I loved it because you can literally use this as a kind of like soap but also shampoo :O


After my bath, which was suuuper hot and because it was sooo steamy I decided to put a face mask on because my pores were open so I used my Montagne Jeunesse face mask in the 'Black Seaweed Peel Off' mask but I forgot to take a picture of that so here it is off the internet :D


I then used my Dove 'Summer Glow' lotion again because I NEED to feel a slight tan but I'll probably do a proper fake tan with the stuff I bought in my last post and fingers crossed it works well :'D




Whilst I was having my bath, I watched the 1st episode of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and I thought it was sooo funny :') Like I remember the woman who plays Kimmy Schmidt from Bridesmaids as the one who was the newly wed and I would definitely recommend it :)


If you have any recommendations of anything new to watch please let me know in the comments :)

Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.

What I got from Birmingham! :D

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging?? :)

So as promised here is a mini haul of stuff that I got from the Bullring in Birmingham. Me and my family always go to Birmingham when we want to do a massive shop rather than Walsall because there's more shops and is sort of like a treat/break from work. So without further ado here we go :)

My lips lately have been very dry even with Vaseline it still isn't as effective as it used to be and originally I went into Boots to look at the Maybelline lip balm but once I spotted this I knew I had to try it out. It's the 'Dr Rescue' by Baby Lips and although the packaging didn't really stand out to me but I thought I'd give it a go. So far, it has added soo much moisture to my lips. The smell is a bit off-putting because it smells like Vapour rub but the colour of it suits my skin tone very well :D


Now to take off my make-up I used to use the Lush 'Ultra-blend' cleanser which is a non-scented sort of moisturiser that when massaged into wet skin forms an oil that gets rid of any make-up but because I have combination to oily skin, I found this made my skin even more oily so I only use it when my skin is super dry. So then I've got to admit I went a bit lazy and started to use make-up wipes...I know I know I'm sorry :( but with work and stuff I found this way much easier than using the cleanser. But after a couple of months of using make-up wipes to 'remove' my make-up, I found my skin starting to gain more stupid spots than normal and after searching through blogs and YouTube videos, I wanted to find another way and found this:


This is the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water has been raved about in the beauty world only recently as a cheaper alternative to the Bioderma which is supposed to be amaaazing :) With this cleanser you just need to get a cotton pad with this stuff on and wipe away haha!

Now I reallly needed a new Beauty Blender because it's sooo dirty even after cleaning it about 5 times and there's a chunk missing out of it because I accidentally dropped nail glue on it and it hardened and when I was using the blender that one part was scratching my face so I picked it off but there was a massive chunk missing so I thought It'd be best if I got a new one :)


When it comes to my eyebrows, I've only ever used an MUA eyebrow pencil which has a brush on the end but I decided to splurge on something that I'd heard great things about and that's the Soap and Glory Archery 2-in-1 Brow Filing Pencil & Brush. With a dry spooly on one end and the pencil at the other it looks promising :)


Only recently have I been looking for a good quality tanner that doesn't make you look like a walking cheese puff and this beauty caught my eye:



This is the Rimmel London Sun Shimmer Instant Tan and the major thing that made me want to buy this was because it's a matte tan so there aren't any glitter or anything that would make you look shiny which was what I was looking for. As it's a wash off tanner, I thought this would be the most versatile out of the tans that I've seen and was affordable as well but hopefully I'm not going to need any gloves to use it because I haven't got any :/

The last bit of make-up I bought was a foundation. Now it's not every week I buy a new foundation because I don't wear that much of it but I've been obsessing over L'Oreal True Match foundation but decided to try something new so I went for:



It's the new Maybelline Dream Flawless Nude foundation and although I tested the colour out, I think it might be a little bit too dark for me so if that's the case I'll have to get the colour underneath this one but the formula is very runny which I find more manageable.

Now when I bought these Saturday day time I was going out on the night and decided to buy myself some new clothes so from Miss Selfridge:

£16.00


£45.00

For my play suit I would have had a better picture of the actual thing but it's in the wash at the moment.

And that's all I bought from my shopping trip on Saturday sorry I didn't upload this on the actual Saturday but I went out on the night and everyday in between I've been suuuuper busy :D

Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.

Sunday 15 March 2015

Suds Sunday!

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

So it's that time again so here's what I had for my bath:

I finished off my Zoella bath fizz cube things and because I didn't think that they brought much to the table so I added another bath thing to it and today it was the Marks & Spencer's Magnolia Bath Cream from their floral collection. I don't think it's available any more because I've had it for sooo long but as it says, the smell is quite floral which I thought went well with the bath cubes with just the right amount of bubbles :)




After I had my bath, as you know, I like to moisturise my body and because at the moment I've been loving building up my tan, I used the Dove Summer Glow moisturiser which is basically a moisturiser with a slight tan to it and as you use it, the tan becomes stronger which would give you a healthy glow to your skin. It doesn't smell like the traditional 'biscuit' tan you'd normally get which I think's a good thing and instead smells like a normal Dove moisturiser which kind of reminds me of sun cream! :D



Also, during my bath, I decided to have a face mask and today I used the Green Tea peel off mask by Montagne Jeunesse and in this case, this mask is a deep and pore cleansing mask and as the room was quite hot because of my bath, my pores were already opened so I decided not to use an exfoliator on my face. The smell wasn't exactly the best but I think it's worked :)


Whilst in the bath my internet was playing up so I decided to listen to a playlist on YouTube and because I'm a cheap skate ;) I can't skip songs but in my opinion I like listening to random songs because you might find a new artist that you've become obsessed with :) Anyway so I listened to the 'Soft' playlist mainly due to the fact that Jack Johnson was on the front but also because I wanted to start to relax and be all ready for work tomorrow.



So yeahh that's my Suds Sunday :) Ohh yeah forgot to say I went shopping yesterday and wanted to share with you guys what I got so that'll probably be up on either Tuesday or Wednesday so stay tuned! :)

Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.

Suds Sunday!

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

Another week has passed and you know what that means...bath time!! :D

So, for my bath this week, I decided to use the Zoella bath fizz stuff and as soon as I opened up the packaging...it...smelled...awesome :) so of course I couldn't wait to use it.

But sadly, I was disappointed :(

The chunks of the bath fizz were very very hard to break apart and when they went into the bath, I was hoping for a little bit of something special like bubbles or to hear a fizzing sound but nope :( I even used half the product up and to make it worse, there wasn't a smell at all...like nothing. I might of as well have had a bath with nothing in it. Oh well :(



After my soak, I used my Peach Body Butter from the Body Shop like last time and again, I bloody love it :D


When I was having my bath I was listening to Jessie J's new album, Sweet Talker, which I thought was pretty good not her best stuff but was okay to listen to :)

Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.

February Favourites!

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

So I actually can't believe we're in March already! Like seriously! It only feels like yesterday it was Christmas and New Year and all that stuff but yeah, I guess that's what happens when you're busy :D

So...let's begin!!

Food

I've been loving at the moment Caramel Wafers <3 <3 they're like the ones that you get in Starbucks but obviously less money and you're supposed to balance the wafer over a hot drink and the caramel in the middle is supposed to melt but I prefer to just eat them haha! :) Now I haven't got a picture of them because I ate them all and threw away the packet... :/ so here's another picture I found :D



I've also been loooooving spicy food :P yep...anything spicy. If I'm having pasta, I'll either have to add Tabasco sauce or chilli flakes or anything like that and I've gotten a real love for the 'hot' chicken at Nandos which is a real achievement for me because I only normally have 'Mango and Lime' or 'Lemon and Herb'. Is this normal?

Make-up & Beauty

As you know nearly every Sunday I've been posting my 'Suds Sunday' which is basically when I show you guys what I've been using in my bath and anything else like what music I listened to or what moisturiser I used after my bath and at the moment, I honestly can't rave enough about Lush products. The colour of the bath bombs is ridiculously bright and the smells are sooo good, but the one thing I would say is they do lack bubbliness which is what I really like in a bath but hey, beggars can't be choosers :)

Now onto my holy grail :) The Simple Kind to Eyes Revitalising Eye Roll-On. This stuff is sooo soothing and I use it before I apply my make-up in the morning and before I go to bed and seriously, my bags under my eyes have gotten lighter. Yay me! :D



 Now a make-up website that I've been obsessing is Feel Unique like seriously. Amazing. Easy to navigate, easy to find stuff and it's free delivery when you spend over £10 :D They do high end brands as well as high street shops and the delivery is suuuper quick. I ordered something on a Monday and got it on the Wednesday :) Amazing <3

TV/Music

Now my favourite TV programme that I haven't been able to stop watching is the Walking Dead. Like can we take a moment for the special effects and make-up in this programme because...it's awesome. The story line is amazing, the actors/characters are brilliant. There are no flaws.



For my music favourite of the month it has to be the Royal Bloods album, Royal Blood. This album is awesome. My favourite songs are Little Monster, Out of the Black and Figure it Out. Just seriously amazing. They're quite heavy but not like as heavy as Slipknot or Cancer Bats :D


Okay guys that's it for my February Favourites but before you go, have a look at my Instagrammer of the month Just Jessica 


Thank you sooo much guys!!

See you later.

Suds Sunday

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

Suds Sunday again and although I have some more Lush stuff, I didn't feel like wasting them because if I'm completely honest I didn't feel like having a bath today because...you know...lady time and all that. Anyway, I forced myself to have one because I knew it would make me feel better so I used my Radox Sleep Easy bath stuff which makes me feel sleepy which is a good thing considering it's Monday tomorrow :'( 


Then after that, I used my Body Shop body butter in the scent 'Peach' which honest to God is one of the nicest smells everrrr!!! If you remember the little sugar coated peach sweets you used to get in Pick 'n' Mix, they basically smell like that <3




Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.
