Happy New Year! + Wishlist + 10 pan over!!!!!!!!!!

H A P P Y    N E W   Y E A R   ! =]
Hope all my fellow yellow friends and family are having a great time doing allsorts of family things and celebrations, eating losts of yummy food or getting very drunk on wine/drinks!

This year it actually feels more like new years to me, not sure if its because of the fact that my parents aren't working atm and they are spending their full time with us to celebrate, or the fact that I have recieved more lucky money than usual :P haha.  I had a lovely family dinner/get together in Fife on Sunday night and today I've just had dinner with my close immediate family.  With plenty more celebration plans ahead in the next few days im really in this festive mood! (is festive even appropriate to describe cny? :/ ) Anyway hope all of you whom care to spend some time here are also happy and I wish you all the best for the upcoming year!




Thought I would quickly add in my wishlist at the moment as I will probably get some of these items with my new years money !

In no particular order ... (well actually I lie, this first one I want the most lol)

- Laura Mercier Rose Rendezvous illuminator : ahhh yes the limited edition highlighter that was sold out all over the world in the matter of days! Ofcourse I want this, who doesn't want it? :o However due to popular demand (this sentence sounds like something out an essay soz) its only availible on Ebay for like triple the orginal price which was £31 for those that are interested.  The cheapest I've found online is for £59. 

- Two Faced Naked Eye Eyeshadow Palette : My friend has this and I really want it for like two particular colours haha, because of that I have delayed buying it for so long! Can't justify £22 for two eyeshadows.. right?

- Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette : tbh I am just waiting for this to be availible in Boots before I get it, as I get a discount on it :P

- Benefit They're Real Mascara : It is the mascara i have been using for a while, but over my 10 pan project time its dried up and obviously I couldnt buy another :P Pretty sure this will be one of the first things I pick up :) although swithering if I should go back to some drugstore favourites as they last longer and with a few extra coats (and less time in bed :@) I can get the same results


Also , IM FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Project 10 Pan finally done! So happy and so glad I done it, once i treat myself to a few beauty products I shall be on another, as I still have too much makeup for my own good!

For those that want to know what I finished up ...
- Dr Jart BB Cream
- Garnier Pure 3 in 1 face wash (friends and family that have oily/acne prone skin.. GET THIS)


Thanks for reading ! =]

Not long to W-Eight..

Not long to WAIT! haha did you guys like my pun? Sorry to those whom those it was weight related, sadly I dont have anything to report there haha!

Basically this is another update on my project 10 pan! Enjoy!



Thats right, 3 more products closer to 10. Total 7 now! Actually so happy!!!

6. Aussie Luscious Long leave-in conditioner.  Basically a definite staple for me! De-tangles and is a heat protectant = a win-win situation! Smells great aswel! My hair gets really tangly really easy so this is great after a shower.

7. Cosmoses eyebrow pencil.  This is a korean branded cosmetic I bought whilst I was in Hong Kong in the summer, purchased from Sasa.  It retails at $24 which in pounds is like £2! So much cheaper than any eyebrow pencil in the uk.  The most important part however is the fact that its the best eyebrow pencil ive used.  I have tried different products in the past for filling in eyebrows, such as eyebrow powders, gels, pencils, or like this one the auto khol pencils.  Thankfully a friend of mine bought me another two while she was in HK recently! ^__^ dont hv to be eyebrow-less haha

8. Time Delay, anti age spot serum.  Basically the only serums I use are for whitening, radiance and general evening out of the skin tone.  I only use serums for the purpose of fading old scars.  This product is not amazing, Ive not noticed a major difference (or any difference at all) but its a lovely texture and non greasy. 

So happy that I dont have long to go till I can splurge!

hows your 10 pan coming along? :)

Meet me halfway!

Phewwww, I think I shall revert back to my usual style blog posts for the time being. Much easier and much more my style.  So looking at the title im sure those that follow my blog regularly can probably guess what this will be about.  HALFWAY THERE BABY! Ooooh la la! Finally after what seems like ages (yes, I know its only been a few weeks for real) I am halfway through my project 10 pan. 

Finished these badboys up.  (some im glad to throw in the bin, others will be a repurchase in the future)

1. Clarins: Rouge Prodige lipstick in 122 Nude. This product took me a while to actually FINISH because I bought another of the exact same seeing as i loved it soooo much haha.  The second tube i am actually more than halfway through too, wouldnt surprise me if it features later on in the pan project.  Retails for £21 I think, its the best nude lipstick ive come across, doesnt make you look too washed out but opaque enough to cover your own lipcolour if its like mine and naturally quite flushed looking.

2. Shu Uemura Cleasing Oil.  The brightening edition, this is the popular asian targeted version of the cleaning oils by this brand because it gently exfoliates ( I didnt actually notice any of this btw but this is what its said to do) therefore brightening and whitening (and we all know all asisan love anything that says whitening haha).  Not sure if I would repurchase this, definitely one of the better cleaning oils as it didnt break me out and leave me with a film on skin, after washing skin feels really soft , clean and the whole cleansing process is quite luxurious haha.  However at £28 a bottle (which fair enough did last me 6 months with regular use approx 4 times a week) is quite pricey and it didnt WOW me enough I dont think.

3. VO5 Miracle Concentrate; elixir with Argan Oil.  Now, if you are a regular youtube beauty guru watcher or blog reader you probably have heard about this mysterious Argon Oil thats been discovered to be multi functional and great for hair so decided to give this a try.  Have to say really impressed for roughly £5 I paid lasted me around 3 months and leaves ends feeling soft and less damaged. Definitely would repurchase.

4. Dermologica; Multi active Toner.  Basically one word which describes this product. MEEH. Does its job as a toner, no real effects noticed (but then again I never notice much effect from a toner) so did just use it up, the spray bottle top is also very handy.  However Dermologica products are quite pricey and I wouldnt pay for it as it basically did as much as Botanics toner would do minus the spray top bottle and about a tenth of the price.

5. Burberry Brit eau de parfum.  Finally finished this badboy! Sad to see it go though and if I spot it in sale on the future I would repurchase seeing as it smells so different and unlike everything else I own. =]

So happy ive got 5 out the way, I am also on the ends of at least two other products I can think of off the top of my head so I cant wait to have this 10 pan done!  Once its done I shall be getting my hands on the Naked2 palette! Kills me that everyone has it and is playing with it already!
