What i use.... Keep Vibrant reds :)




John Frieda- Vibrant Reds Shampoo & Conditioner
This works great on keeping my hair vibrant, I have very red hair lol!
My hairdresser asked me the other day what i had been using to keep the colour as i went to only have my roots done.
I think she was a little surprised when i said i only use a shampoo & conditioner :)
I think she was expecting me to say i had to use a semi colour or something...
In the past i have had to do that as with reds they fade to eithera orangy or pink colour depending on which shade of red you have gone for.
All i can say is this works great on my hair, i couldnt recommend it enough :)
Mine cost me £10 because they were on offer (2 for £10)
But they are currently 2 for £7.50 at Boots

My Little Guys New Glasses :)



Unfortunatly my little guy has to wear glasses :( I know nowadays its not such a big thing but i was totally heartbroken when i found out that was what was up with his eyes, i knew with him from a very young age ( 3 months old) that his right eye turned out all the time, the only problem was i seemed to be the only person who noticed it, it took 18 months for my health visitor to actually notice the turn & agreed to refer him to see a specialist.



I just thought he might have a lazy eye so when they said he was badly short sighted (left eye -6.25, right eye -13.50) :( i was devastated! He has worn glasses from the age of 18 months, he is 4 1/2 now.






Believe me he has gone through a large amount of glasses as they jus snap or totally bend out of shape, it has been a struggle to actually get some that are sturdy, BUT i think we have finally got there a little now

I have noticed the older style glasses seem to be coming back but i have to say these seem perfect for him & they really suit him. What do you think???




MAC Haul :)

Ok so this is a little late a post for me (oops) :)


I had a little MAC haul over christmas, here is what i decided to get :)
1/

2/3/
Pic 1: Fix + & Feline Kohl Eyeliner
Pic 2: Empty Eyeshadow palette, Brule, Wedge, Naked Lunch, Amber Lights & Vanilla
Pic3: Painterly Paint pot & Vintage Selection Paint pot ( Cham pale collection)

I cant really say too much about them at the moment, i have only tried a few of the eyeshadows, which are Naked lunch which i love for everyday. Also brule & Wedge which i also think is great for everyday too (if i get a little extra time to apply my make up lol)
The Amber lights i'm not too sure about yet as i dont think it is going to suit me so we will have to see when i get a little more time to play!! :)

I will be purchasing more soon as there are a few more items i really want to try but i have to order mine online as i dont have a MAC counter near me :(

Time for a rant .....






Ok why do i always speak too soon???

as i have said in my previous post, ive had a bad infection in my mouth well i got up this morning to a swollen face yet again :(
It is really starting to drive me crazy as i look terrible & no amount of make up is going to help :(


Also on another note that has really really irritated me lately is EBAY!!! Now anyone who knows me knows i love ebay, which i do dont get me wrong, i have found many a bargain on there but it really annoys me how folk buy items from stores & then have the nerve to put them on Ebay at double the price, sometimes even more..

Let me give you an example.... I love River Island especially there hats & boots, i was recently looking for last seasons panda hat as there no longer sold in store & the prices were unbelievable so i opted for this seasons bear hat...


Namely this one.... (So very cute) These are £14.99 in store & online, folk are putting them on ebay for £30, it is just me or is that just wrong????



Also i have just ordered these 2 hats..


This first one (grey Tiger) is £20 in store & online & i have seen it for double on ebay.. I thought ebay was for bargains.... AArrgghhh How it annoys me!!!

I have to show the other little bear hat as i have bought this for my daughter so she can be like mummy lol!

Anyway that is my rant for today lol!!

oh also got an email from Sleek today saying my orderfrom the 12th Nov will be sent tommorrow yipee!!!

Worst experience of my life i tell you... I have never been more nervous & scared in my life...
He is recovering well now but has to stay indoors for 7 days which isnt really a bad thing with this horrible weather..

I have bought a few items recently which i will post about vey soon..
alas one order i placed in the 50% Sleek sale i never even got :( i didnt even recieve an email afterwards to explain anything.

Anyway until next time, have fun xxx :) :)

Hugs & much love Shelley xxx
