Loving
Sanctuary 5 minute thermal mask
Oh how I love this stuff! It heats up as soon as you put it on and it leaves my skin feeling so smooth and soft. I try to use it twice a week, and there’s really no excuse not to as it’s so quick and easy. I’m quite lazy when it comes to skincare, I always remove my make up and moisturize but anything else seems too much effort. Except this, and it really clears my pores. A few people have commented that it smells quite earthy, but this really doesn’t bother me, and I much prefer a natural earthy scent than something over perfumed.
Nars Orgasm
I realise I’m the last person in the world to rave about this blush, so apologies. I held off buying it for so long because I’m a glitter-phobe, but when it popped up on Buya-Powa, I couldn’t resist, and I’m so pleased with it! When it’s on, the glitter is so subtle, and this is by far my favourite blush. So perfect for summer, you know, when it gets here.
Sister-time
In just 3 days time my big sister is coming back from Melbourne for a couple of weeks. I can’t tell you how much I’m looking forward to seeing her, she’s my best friend, and the only other person who knows all the words to every Michael Ball and Meatloaf album through no fault of their own. For this I can only blame my mother, but I won’t hold it against her.
Loathing
Wedding dress shopping.
This summer I have not 1, not 2, not even 3, but 7 weddings to go to. Okay, so some are evening dos but still, that’s a lot of dresses, and I’m struggling to find even 1. If you see anything that is Nicole Richie-esque and can be worn with a normal bra, please, I beg you, send me the link!
Ombre Hair
Oh, I know, it’s controversial! Now firstly, it’s not that I dislike this hair style, quite the opposite, I really like it, and I even considered it myself for a while, but for me, it’s become a case of overkill. I can’t seem to go anywhere without seeing it, and for every good ombre, there’s another dodgy orange dye dunk. Enough now. For me at least. Honestly Ciara, what is that?
Disco pants
More controversy! This might be because I’m too old, short, bitter and dumpy for them, but I hate disco pants. Like the ombre hair, they’ve become a bit unavoidable, and I just feel like they’re a camel toe waiting to happen? *Apologies for the attached image, if you’re a squeamish type, I suggest you look away.
