What I Got For My 18th Birthday

So on Saturday the 17th of may it was my 18th birthday, i got lots of lovely things and i really wanted to share them with you guys. As it was my 18th birthday i was very spoiled, so i just want to say a massive thank you to all my family for buying me these amazing things.
The first thing i got i actually got before my birthday as i really really needed it and that was a new phone, i got the Samsung galaxy s4 which i am in love with, its my new baby.
I also went on a trip to Paris which will be another post.


I got quite a few things from the body shop which i asked for. I really wanted to try some things from the vitamin E range, so i asked for a few of them. I got the Moisture Serum which i have only used a few times and i have been loving it the texture is lovely and it makes my skin feel really soft. The Cream Exfoliater i actually didn't ask for this but im glad i got it as i really needed a new exfoliater, i have used it once or twice and its very nice, its very creamy as the name would suggest, so you need to add water to it to feel the scrubby bits. The last vitamin E product is the Eye Cream, i really needed a new eye cream and i thought this would be good so i asked for it, i have used every night or so since i got it and i have really been enjoying it, it nice and moisturising and not greasy at all, it is a lovely product. I also asked for the Camomile Cleansing Oil as i have just finished using the camomile cleansing butter and i really loved using that so i thought i would give this ago as well, i have used it a few times and i really like it. The only problem is one of these new face products has been braking me out and i don't know which one it is as i have been using them all, so that's not good. The last thing from the body shop is this Born Lippy Lip Balm in raspberry, i have wanted to try one of these for ages but have never picked one up and i don't know why because i love it soooo much and i now want very scent lol.


The next few things are from lush. I always get caught into buying a little mini of the Charity Pot hand and body Moistuiser when im at the till in lush, but i don't mind as i really love it so i thought i would ask for the big size for my birthday, it smells a bit weird but its really lovely. I also got the Think Pink Bath Bomb, i already had one of these which i hadn't used yet so now i have two, i hope i like it lol.


MAC. I have two mac eye shadows and i love them sooo much so i thought i would ask for a few more bits for my birthday.The Lipstick in Angel this is my first ever lipstick from mac so i thought i would make it natural and wearable for everyday, which this is, Its a light nudy pink and i love it so much. The Eye Shadow in All That Glitters I went into mac and swatched almost all of there eye shadows and this one really stood out to me so i thought i would ask for it, its a lovely light goldy almost pinky toned colour, its very natural and lovely to wear everyday just all over the lid by its self. The Paint Pot in Bare Study this is a lovely light champagne colour which looks lovely and natural all over the lid by itself or as a base, i have used this once and its nice i like it, its not that amazing though. When my Aunite brought me the eye shadow and lipstick she got some free samples which are a primer (don't know which one) and the strobe cream which i am excited to use.


Vera Wang bejeweled perfume. I sprayed a bit of this on my arm when i was browsing around Selfridges and i feel in love so i had to ask for it for my birthday, its so fruity and sweet and just a beautiful scent. My mom managed to find a gift set with the body lotion and body wash to match which are also really lovely.


River Island light blue satchel. Me and my mom were browsing around river island and i saw this bag and i fell in love, its the perfect size and its such a beautiful colour, it has gold hard wear and a fake snake print in certain places. I also do remember it was quite cheap for a RI bag.


Ted Baker Light Pink Makeup Bag. I have seen loads of pictures of these makeup bags on instagram and they are just so beautiful, so when i went into the Ted Baker store and i saw it i fell in love and my auntie who was with me decided to get it for me for my birthday which was so lovely of her, thing is i don't want to use it and get it dirty, its currently sitting on my shelf on display and i may stay there for a while lol.
River Island Purse. I really wanted one of these big purses as i normally have the small little ones but there wasn't enough card holders in them and the coins always fell out so i thought i would ask for one of these bigger ones and my mom got me this lovely beige one.


Sanctuary Gift Set. My mom surprised me with these gift set and i love it so much, i have never tried any think from sanctuary so this is a great chance to. In it there is: a body scrub, body wash, facial cleanser, body butter, body scrubber brush thing, foot scraper thing, facial moituriser, foot scrub and a facial exfoliater. I have used a few of these things and they have been lovely so far.


Yankee Candle in Pink Sands. I love Yankee candles so much so i thought i would ask for one, i had this in a wax tart and i loved it so much so i thought i would ask for the big candle. I cant describe the scent but the website says; It's an exotic island escape in the beautiful mix of bright citrus, sweet florals and spicy vanilla.


These are a few other products i got; Boots foot cream, Nivea lotion, St Ives facial scrub, Nivea soft mosisturser and the Revlon nearly naked foundation which i love.


I got this really cute ring holder with a little owl on it, how cute is this.


Two Tops from Newlook, i was shopping with my mom and auntie and i noticed new look had a sale on so off course i had to go in, i saw these two really lovely tops and my auntie said she would get them me for my birthday which was lovely of her.

If you want to see what i wore on my birthday, take a look at this post My birthday OOTD and NOTD

So that is most of the things i got for my birthday, i hope you enjoyed this post, please comment and follow.

Life Update #4

So i have a little update for you today, a lot of things have been and are going to be in my life at the minute and i wanted to let you guys know. BTW this is a very writing heavy post so grab a cuppa and enjoy.

Job
I got my first ever job (yay). At my college there is also a working beauty salon, and they were looking for girls who are doing beauty level 3 to work for them, as they were very low on staff, so when i saw the advertisement i had to apply for it, it took longer than a month for everything to b finalised which is ridiculous but my college is very disorganised, but after a while of emailing back and forth and me giving them lots of information the lady emailed me and said i had got it, i was sooo happy. Its around a month later and i still haven't started but i talk about that in the finger section of this post

Work experience
Along with my course we have to get a work experience placement, and there was a spa in Birmingham that i really wanted to do it at, so i went into the spa and asked about it, unfortunately the manager wasn't in so i gave my information in and the girl said someone will ring or email me, three days later i hadn't heard anything back, so i thought i would ring up to see what was going on, and it turned out that this girl didn't give the manager my information which was ridiculous, but it was a good job that i called other wise i wouldn't of got it. The manager told me to email her some information like my CV and what week i would like to do it and some other bits, so i did this and unfortunately the week i wanted to do it another person was doing theirs, i was very upset about this as i didn't think i would be able to do it now. So i spoke to my tutor at college and she said it would be okay for me to do it a different week which was amazing. So i got back to the spa and they said that i could do it the week after. I am currently now doing the work experience, i have done one day so far and i enjoyed it i was in from 11am-7.30pm, it was a very long day but i enjoyed it.
I cant do any treatments as there insurance doesn't cover work experience which is a same, but i still get to see how a working spa works, i did a lot of cleaning and working on reception but i also got to help the girls tidy up there rooms if they have client after client and needed there room clean and tidy fast which is fun, i also got to speak to the clients and take them to the relaxation room which is where they go before there treatment which was great, and i would of thought that my other days are going to be like this as well.

Finger
So on good Friday i was at home having a nice relaxing day and then my dad made me help him in the garden. He was moving the green house and to do this he had to take the glass out, so he thought while the glass panels were out he may as well clean them so of course i got the job off cleaning them by hand, it was all going well until i was turning a glass panel over and the corner snapped off and took a big chunk of my skin off all the way down the my vein, so about 2 hrs later it was still bleeding so my mom thought it was right to take to to a&e so we did, three times in one night from the times of seven o'clock to 3am and it was bleeding from 5pm-3am, i had doctors, nurses, hand specialists and plastic surgents all come and see me, finally at around 1 or 2 am they put this special piece of material which was meant to stop it from bleeding so that was on for a about 30 mins to an hour and it was still bleeding and that's when the plastic surgents came and sorted me out they took the same piece of material put it on my finger putting presser on and my arm up in the air and finally at around 3 am it stopped bleeding. I was sent home and it was fine and it hasn't bleed again since, i went to the nurse a few times after to change the dressing and so they could take a look at it, that special piece of material stayed on my finger and that helped from the scab to form and for about three weeks i was waiting for that to fall of like a natural scab would, and today the day i am writing this it fell of, the skin underneath has gown back fine but the top layer of my skin still hasn't grown back and still very delicate. Because of this my left hand has been out of use so of course i haven't been able to do assessments at college or start my job.

Birthday
So as you may already know on Saturday the 17th of may i turned 18, i had a wonderful day and i also actually had colour put on my hair for the first time ever lol, if you want to know more about my birthday take a look at this post.

Paris
For my birthday my mom is taking me to Paris, surprisingly i have never been to the center of Paris but i have been to France loads of times, i am really looking forward to it not only for sights but also for the shopping so if there is anything you recommend me picking up from sephora or a pharmacy let me know.

So that's everything i would be very surprised if any of you got through the whole of this post but if you did leave me a nice comment.

Birthday NOTD and OOTD

Hello guys, so on Saturday the 17th of May I turned 18 (wooo) so i thought I would show you my outfit and nails, and also my birthday cake which i'm sure you guys will love.



Dress - River Island, Shoes - love label 
The theme of my party was pastel, so of course my dress had to match, its a black body con dress with pastel pink and black gingham print, it has black panels down the side with gives the elision of looking thinner which i'm all for, the top is also off the shoulder which is very flattering and i love, It was also only £30 which is amazing. My shoes are from love label but i got them from littlewoods, i couldn't find them on the website and that is probably because i brought them around 2 years ago, they are actually my prom shoes.


On my nails in Barry M gelly hi shine is rose hip, a very light pink which went really well with my dress, they looked at bit boring so i thought i would add a bit of glitter to make them look a bit more special as it was my 18 th birthday. The glitter is the glitter end of the models own Artstix nail polish duo in blibble.


So this is my cake :o, its amazing isn't it, also gives you a hint of some of the gifts i revived for my birthday which will be my next post.

Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Polish in Huckleberry




As you probably know Barry M brought a spring line of polish's out and of course i had to pick my favorites up.
All Barry M nail polishes are very good especially their gelly hi shine range i really love them as well as the normal line, i own a lot from both lines and i will continue to buy from then for a long time.
The Barry M gelly hi shine nail polishes are very raved and loved by lots of people as well as me.

Huckleberry is a very light baby blue colour, with no shimmer in it. Its a thicker nail polishes but not to thick, so it doesn't take like five coats to build up an opaque coverage, i think it did two coats.
I applied it five days ago and its still on but has chipped, i think it started chipping two or three days in to wearing it which is normal for me. This polish is really lovely but i do have similar colours to it, its not one of a kind. Although i do really like it and i will wear it. The nail polish IS coming out true to colour in pictures.

The other two from the line are a light greeny bluey colour which i don't own (and regret not picking up) and light baby pink colour which i do own and cant wait to use (i will do a birthday NOTD with this).

New Look Jewellery Haul

I was just browsing around new look and i noticed there was signs everywhere saying there was a 20% of event for students on, and i was like okay i better take advantage of this, i found some nice clothes but i fell in love with these jewellery pieces, there not much but i thought i would show you anyway.



I needed some earrings to wear on my birthday that went with my dress, and when i saw these i was like these are perfect, as they have baby pink stones in them, and my dress has baby pink in it. They are like pink flowers with gems on the outside. They are really pretty and were only £3.50, but i got 20% off.


When i saw this i feel in love, its so pretty, its statement but not to statement. Its got a lovely gold chain, with cream flowers with purple gem stones in the middle, it also has clear stones in between each flower. It was £6 which i thought was really good especially as i also got 20% of it.


I thought this was really cute and i couldn't leave it behind, especially as it was less than £4. Its got a gun metal chain with 4 gun metal and gold hexagons. Its really cute and delicate yet it has a edgy side to it. I love this and i have a feeling im going to wear it a lot.

A Professional Manicure and my Kit

Hello, so for today's post im going to tell you what a full manicure that you would get in a salon or SPA entails, im also going to show you my manicure kit.


So the first thing i would do is remove any nail polish or dirt or oil from the nail plate, at my salon they we use pure acetone which i think is ridiculous as its so drying and bad for the nails. Next i would cut and shape the nails to the clients desired shape. Then i would put cuticle oil or cream on to the cuticles and then soak them in warm soapy water in a manicure bowl, but in my kit i have this Jessica Jessana crystal ionized nail soak which helps to both clean and hydrate the nails, so i use that instead of soap.


Once i have done the other hand i will take the first one out of soak and then soak the other hand. Once the hand is out the water i use a hoof stick to push back the cuticles while they are soft, next i would apply some cuticle remover cream and remove any excess cuticle with cuticle nippers. Next i would buff the nails you are meant you use a buffing cream but i just use the cuticle remover cream as i don't see the point in getting another product when i can just use this cream product.


Next would be a hand scrub, i have this Proto-col instant manicure scrub, which is half oil and half scrubbing agent. It is very gritty which is lovely for the hands and it also really hydrates them. Next is a hand mask you will have a choice of either a hand mask that would be put into warm mits or a paraffin wax mask which is just like candle wax just with more benefits for the skin.


The hand mask will be applied with this small brush and the paraffin wax will be applied with this is almost paint brush, the for both masks you hand will be placed in to polythene paraffin protectors (which is just like a sandwich bag) and then either placed in to mits like in the picture or heated mits. (Bare in mind things may vary in different salons this is just how i learnt to do it)


Next you will get a lovey hand and arm massage, i love this massage cream as it smells amazing and it has shimmer in it. Then your nail plate will be cleaned with nail polish remover so they are ready to be painted, you can choose from a french manicure or what ever other colour you would like.

I hope you enjoyed this post, in a few posts i have my facial kit coming so keep an eye out for that.

Nail Polish Haul - Barry M, Technic and Primark

Hello, so the other week i was having a craving to buy nail polish, so when i eventually went shopping i brought five, but i could have brought way more if i had the money or if i actually needed them.







Barry M 3 for 2 - Gelly hi shine £3.99, other £2.99
When i saw the new spring collection of the Gelly hi shines i new i had to get some, i was going to buy them all but i thought i have loads of colours like the other one and i also wanted to buy the 50 years of superdrug birthday nail polish. The gelly hi shines are very light pastels, they almost look white. They are very pigmented and only need two coats to make them opaque, i brought the pink one to wear on my birthday as my dress has light pink in it. The light pink is called Rose hip and the light blue is called Huckleberry.
The 50 years of Superdrug nail polish is opaque fuchsia based with glitters in it, for a glitter nail polish is very pigmented, i only used two coats to get it how it is in the swatch, this nail polish is called birthday.

Technic 99p from body care
I always see these nail polishs in body care and i have never pick them up and i don't know why as they are so cheap, they have loads of glitter ones and these two really stood out to me. When i was there i noticed they have a pastel collection that look exactly the same as the Barry m Gelly hi shine spring collection, i was going to pick them up and do a comparison post on my blog but i didn't as i don't need them. One is called garden party and this has green, silver and purple glitters in them, which i thought looked really nice together. The other one is called monochrome, its a bit like one that L'Oreal one that everyone went mad over last year, its like a salt and pepper nail polish i believe people called them, i didn't really like them at first but when i saw this i thought i may as well pick them up. They are just like any other glitter nail polish in which its takes a few coats to get a full coverage of glitter. These are really good for 99p and im 100% going to get some more in the future.


£1 primark false nails
Now i don't wear fake nails but these were just to pretty to leave behind. There is 24 nails in each pack so you can get at least two uses out of each box with some spares in case something goes wrong, they also come with glue which is amazing considering they are only £1. They have loads of different patterns but these are the ones that stood out to me, i don't know whether in actually going to wear these or not, but... oh well.

NOTD - Essie mint candy apple with spots

Hi guys im back and today I have a nail of the day for you.
I brought essie mint candy apple a few months ago as it is so hyped up, but I must say im kind of let down, its not really minty at all its more of just a baby blue, which is still nice but not what I was expecting at all.
I love the brush on this polish its the perfect size and distributes a lot of polish, sometimes to much.
I did these nails for a photo challenge I am doing on instagram, I had to do something with spots and I thought what better time to do some nail art.
I used this nail art dotter I brought from amazon a while back and I think they were only like 50p for a pack of 5 and they are all double ended.
I used a rimmel white nail polish in London clouds, which is actually about to run out so if u have any recommendations for white nail polishs let me know.
So I put essie mint candy apple on all of my nails and then waited for them to dry a bit. I then put some of the white nail polish on to the dotting tool and then dotted the white on to my nails in a pattern going downwards, and then on the next line doing the dots in the middle of the other ones if u get what I am saying, u can kind of see it in the picture. Its not the nearest application but its actually quite hard to make it 100% perfect but I did my best.

So I hoped u liked this post and I should hopefully be blogging a bit more from now on and I think im going to do nail posts so look out for them.

What is Galvanic // Beauty Treatments

So this is another post to go along with the beauty therapy series i am currently doing. This series is all about beauty treatments you can have in a salon or a SPA, that either people don't know about or people don't know what it actually does or the benefits of it are.

So today's treatment i am going to talk about is Galvanic
The picture below shows you were you can have the treatment done, and what it looks likes when you have the treatment done on your face and body
All pictures are taken from Google.



Galvanic is a treatment which is used for breaking down and helping cellulite disappear, this is done by softening the area.

Cellulite is thought to be fat cells trapped in the matrix (structure that holds skin cells together, located in the bottom layer of skin). Cellulite is cool to the touch due to trapped toxins, fluid and poor circulation.

You can have galvanic on your Body and face

Body

Benefits
Improves lymphatic circulation
Improves blood circulation
Helps soften hard scar tissue (scars)
Aids dispersal of cellulite

A low direct current passes through to the skin tissues, the current goes through electrically conductive pads which are places into dampened sponges which are covered in anti cellulite gel, the current then pushes the gels into the skin which mobilises the fat cells and releases trapped fluids.

You have two pads, one on the problem area which is the active pad and one on the opposite side which is not active.

You can feel a tingling sensation a bit like pins and needles, this is the treatment doing its job.

Your therapist will cleanse and exfoliate the skin to bring blood to the surface and to make sure there is nothing on the top layer of skin.

Firming gel should be applied at home to help along with the treatment.

Face

You may be thinking 'but i don't get cellulite on my face' well you are right you don't but the facial galvanic is used to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, scaring and removes impurities.

As you can see from the pictures above facial galvanic is very different to body as you don't use pads you use metal electrodes, which are rolled over the face, neck and decolletage. Electro lotion and galvanic gels (Different gels chosen depending on your skin type)are placed onto the skin instead of onto pads, The client holds an unactive electrode and then the therapist moves the active electrodes over the skin, you will taste a metal taste that is when you know the treatment is working.

The treatment is performed like a regular facial, so you will also have a cleanse, exfoliate, massage and mask depending on your skin type, if you have dry or sensitive skin then you can but if you have oily skin then you don't have the massage and mask as the treatment leaves a antibacterial layer on the skin which helps reduce spots and oiliness.



If you type into Google galvanic treatments then loads of pictures will come up with the results of the treatment and you will see how amazing this actually is once you have had a course of the treatment.

I think i have covered everything but if you do have any questions fell free to ask.

Other treatments i have done posts on:
Micro-dermabrasion
Faradic

January and February Favorites // Makeup - Skincare

Hello everyone, so today i am doing a favorites post these are a few products that i have been using for both January and February and have been loving very much.


Make-up

Maybelline BROW drama sculpting mascara in dark brown
I brought this at clothes show live for £5 last year, i had wanted to try it for a while so i thought i would pick it up, and lets just say im glad i did. The brush is a bit weird and kind of big so this would be best for people with thick brows. This is great to use when you are in a rush in the morning and don't have time to take forever filling them in with a powder or a pencil. The colour is really good for me not orangey at all and it sets my brows in place all day.

Benefit high beam
I brought this quite a while ago and have been using it of and on since and using it in different ways, but i have recently found a way to wear it that i really like. I use it after foundation and concealer but before powder as it is a liquid product, i put a bit on the back of my hand and then take a brush and dab it on to my cheek bones, it makes me look really glowy and is very natural, when i have finished putting on my powder products i take what ever is left on the brush and dab a bit more on top of my blush.

Rimmel accelerator endless mascara 
Again a product i got at clothes show, it was in a set for £5 which is a bargain as this is more than £5 by itself. People have said that its meant to have fibers in it but i haven't noticed them, but this dose make my lashes look realllly long and full, its really easy to apply and the product makes your lashes look lovely.

Bourjois colour burst lip crayon in peach on the beach
This is a great product to use on those days when you are just wearing a bit of makeup but still want a pop of colour on your face, its really long lasting and actually stains the lips, its very glossy and moisturising and the colour looks lovely on the lips.


Skincare

Clinique all about eyes rich
I got given two samples of this from my aunt as she didn't want them and i ended up loving it a lot. Its very moistursing and i really like using it at night time, i use it before my moisturiser so it can really do its job by the eye area and doesn't have any night cream in the way. I really like this and i might be putting the full size on my birthday list depending on the price.

Lush charity pot hand and body lotion
My mom brought me this little pot for Christmas and i must say it is a lovely product. Its not greasy and moisturises you so well, i have only used it as a hand cream but i will try it after i have shaved my legs and if it doesn't sting my legs then the big size is going on my birthday list. When your in lush you should pick one of these up its only £1 and its a lovely product.

The body shop camomile sumptuous cleansing butter
Another product i got for Christmas, i asked for this as people are always going on about cleansing butters so i thought i would ask for a tub of this, its a hard product but once you take some out and warm it up in between your fingers, its turns in to a cream product, i put is straight onto a makeup full face and massage it in, its great as it lifts all the makeup and dirt of the skin ready to be washed away, once i have massaged it in i take a dampened cotton pad and wipe it of i don't use it to take my eye makeup of but i do go over my eyes to make sure everything of, i then wash my face in the shower to make sure everything it off. Its a bit oily but is doesn't leave a residue on the skin.

Therapeutics spot serum
This is just a small sample size that i got when i brought a face wash and sponge at clothes show last year. But as you only need a tiny bit im sure it will last a while. It smells minty and the skin tingles a little when you put it on so it feels like its actually doing something and its really nice, i wont buy the full size as its not overwhelmingly good but i do like it.

Clinique dramatically different moistusing lotion +
I got this sample for Christmas in a set and i ended loving it, its very light but very moisturising and is great under makeup. It smells a bit weird but i can get over that, i really love this and again depending on the price this might be going on my birthday list.

I have wanted some paraffin wax for ages as we use it at college, its such a lovely products and i got it for a bargain.

Paraffin wax brush, £2 something 
I brought a brush to apply the paraffin wax as you need a special one as it drys very fast.
Options disposable mini waxing spatulas, 70p
I wanted some of these for when i wax the brows and top lip as at the moment im just using regular sized one and braking them in half, but for 70p i couldn't say no.
Solutions grape-seed massage oil, £3 something
I needed some massage oil as i don't have any, this was really cheap but the bottle is pretty small so i hope it doesn't run out to fast.



Small bowls £1.20
Medium bowl £2.30
I needed some of these bowls for when i do my treatment so i have some were to put the water and cotton pads.


Jessica mini nail polish set £5.95
I couldn't say no to this as it was so cheap, and i have never tried Jessica before so i am excited to try them.


Jessica Jessana crystal ionized nail soak £3.50
This is a product that you use to clean and nourish the nails, you put some tea spoons into a manicure bowl and then soak the nails in it, this had a really good discount so i had to get it.


Essie to dry for, polish drying top coat £5.50
Essie mint candy apple £4.50
I don't have any Essie nail polishes so when i found out they were like half price i had to pick a few up, i have wanted to try mint candy apple for a while so when i saw that i was very happy. I also picked up the top coat because i thought it looked good, i haven't tried it yet but i hope it good.


Manicure bowl £1.95
I wanted to pick up one of these so when i saw it that cheap i had to pick it up.
Peggy sage nail polish £2
I thought this colour looked really nice and it was only £2 so i deiced to pick it up.


Proto-col instant manicure hand scrub £10
I really wanted some hand scrub so when i saw a stand selling scrubs i had to go over, i asked if i could try this one on my hands and when i used it it felt amazing, its very gritty which is great and then when i washed it off and dried my hands they were so moisturised i just had to get it, it also smells like toothpaste which is great. I now that full price this is £19 so i got a great discount on this.


Nyx taupe blusher £4.50
I have heard great things about this and i now its a great contour colour for pale people.
Nyx peaches & cream butter gloss £4.00
Youtubers talk about these all the time so i had to pick one up, i also wanted eclair but they were sold out :(
Nyx sparkle nude jumbo eye pencil £4.00
I love these jumbo eye pencils so i decided to pick up a gold coloured one as i thought it would look nice under the eye.


Now on to the things i didn't get from then show.

Superdrug purifyng and hydrating face masks two for £3.50
I wanted some face masks for my facial kit, so i thought these were on a good offer so i decided to pick one up for oily skin and one for dry skin.


Polythene paraffin protectors, Sally's £2.13, on sale
When you put the paraffin wax on the hands or feet you have to put some kind of protector on to keep heat in and so the wax doesn't go everywhere, they did have these at the show but they were £5, i did almost buy them but i didn't as i thought they were to expensive so i was very happy when i saw them on sale in Sally's

Thai manicure hand mask, Sally's £2.34, on sale
One thing i really wanted to get from the show was a hand mask but i couldn't find one, so i actually went into Sally's looking for this one and it happened to be on sale which i was very happy about. We use this one at college so i know how lovely this mask is.

Thai manicure hand and arm massage cream, Sally's £2.34, on sale
As the mask was only cheap i decided to pick up the massage cream as well, i got it as i usually use the face and body massage cream a o the hands and arms and i thought this would be nicer, this will be much better as its in a squeezey bottle as my other one is in a pot. We also use this at college so i know it smells amazing and that it has glitter in it.

Pro hair and beauty magazine, Sally's £1.95
As you may know we don't really get beauty magazines in England, so i like to pick up an issue of this whenever i am in Sally's. I also got some free individual lash's with it.

Thank you so much for reading i hope you enjoyed

Weekly update #2



Hello, so today i have another week update for you, its not on the same day as last week because i was busy Monday, im going to do these posts on Sundays from now on.

Instagram
My newest pictures that i have put up on instagram this week, they are mainly a few new things i have brought and pictures i thought looked nice. My instagram name is BeautyCallls.

Update
So this week it was half term so i didn't do anything really, so im just going to tell you about the days i actually did something.
Friday - I went to London today with my Aunt, Mom and my Cousin, we mainly were just shopping, we went to paper chase and brought a load of stuff from the sale (the pencil case in the pictures above). We went to & other stories which i was really excited about but i was actually very disappointed, the clothes weren't my style at all and everything was very expensive, the beauty haul was okay it was the bit i only really wanted to look at and again everything was very expensive. Then we went to Liberty's and had a look round the beauty haul which i loved, i didn't buy anything but i really liked the look on the Chanteille eye shadows. We also looked at the chocolate section were my mom brought some chocolate for my brother. We also went to Forever 21, Ted Baker, pull & bear, Lush and loads of other places, we had such a lovely day.
Monday - I went to London again, but this time with my college, we went to the professional beauty show at the ExCel, i had a lovely day and brought loads of lovely things (that's my next post).
