Argan Oil

Hello!! How are you all? Mid-week already, can you believe it!? I'm kind of glad- I'm definitely a live for the weekend kinda girl! Hehe.

 

So as you probably already know, there has been a lot of talk recently about Argan Oil and how good it is for your hair. To give you a brief outline of what Argan Oil actually is I would like to quote Wikipedia Argan oil is an oil produced from the kernels of the argan tree, endemic to Morocco, that is valued for its nutritive, cosmetic and numerous medicinal properties’ (I love Wikipedia)

 

Anyways, I went online and got myself some Argan Oil….TA DAH!

As you can see its not branded. I got it from a supplier called Blackstone Supplies on ebay for £5.99

 

Words cannot describe just how much I love this product. It is incredible. I have only used it about 5 times , but each time I am reminded just how amazing it is. My hair has never felt so soft. The only problem I have with my hair behind so soft is that it becomes very flyaway. Hence why Ive only used it a few times. The atomizer that comes with it isn't the best, its not an even spray more of a straight squirt, but nothings perfect!

 

Have you tried Argan Oil? Did it work as well for you?

Earrings Galore

Morning beauties! Guess who went shopping again? Haha. Its ok if its Primark though- it doesn't really count. You’ll see what I mean….

As you can see I bought 4 pairs of earrings in Primark. Can you tell I like big & bright earrings? Haha.  With the prices in Primark I just cant resist. I think statement jewellery can transform the most casual outfit.

 

I also bought some bracelets and a bargain bag!

Guess how much the bag was!?! £3!!!! I couldnt believe my luck! I absolutely love it! Im a massive fan of across the body bags because I just find them more comfortable. I love how this bag looks quite boho.

 

When I got home from work I was very lucky to see that my lovely mum had bought me a pair of boots for Winter from F&F @ Tesco’s.

I practically live in boots in Winter time. I think my toes get colder than ANY other part of my body. I often fear ill lose a toe-dramatic? Yes. But feels oh so real.

 

Have you found any good bargains recently? Do you enjoy wearing statement jewellery?

Water

 

Morrrrrning!! How are you all? Tired? Yeah, me too! Haha.

 

Sooooooo, just wanted to quickly post about the new water bottle I got. Its called a Bobble Bottle and I love it! I got mine in pink…of course! Haha.

 

Blog 009

 

That twisty looking thing sticking into it is actually a filter! Ingenious! I live in London and I'm not always able to get to filtered water, so i thought this would be the perfect solution! Mine is a 1litre bottle but they also come in 550ml and 385ml. AND you can change the filter colour!!! AMAZING! LOVE IT!

 

I used to hate drinking water when I was younger. Didn't like the fact that it had no ‘taste’ but now I love it!

 

Summer is not the only time you need to remember to drink water, so make sure you drink as much as you can. Its incredibly good for you and cheap / free! Flush out all the impurities in your body. Drinking lots of water will also help if you are suffering from a cold or the flu.

Do you have a water filtered bottle? Do you drink lots of water?

 

Stay hydrated beauties!!! xxxx

Shopping & Snacking

Ello Ello! Not got much time but thought id do a quick post on what I bought yesterday. Its not a lot, but hey ho.

 

Went into Zara….now I hate to say it but I'm not really a bit Zara fan. Maybe its my size and shape. I'm a size 14 in most shops, but nothing in Zara seems to fit me or look good on me. Plus, I find it kinda pricey for what it is. I ended up getting a bag.

 

Blog 019   Blog 020

 

Its just a white shoulder bag. Nothing special. It cost me £29.99 though! I only got it because I have to use up some vouchers I was given. Seeing as it cost me £30 I would expect it to be of a certain quality. All im going to say it its Polyurethane and it was made In China….Maybe I’m just being a cheapo.

 

Anywhoooo, Ive wanted to buy some Mineral make up for ages. My friends keep going on about how good it is, so I had to try it.

I got the Starter Kit for £48. Personally, I think its a little pricey. It comes with 3 brushes, 2 foundations, warmth, bisque and mineral veil. So, I suppose its not too bad really. The only thing is I'm crazily disappointed. Sad smile

It does nothing for me. I think my problem is I need a lot of coverage. I break out around my chin area quite a bit and have some scars from old spots. It just doesn't really look like I'm wearing any foundation. What I will say though is that I use the Mineral Veil over my normal foundation to set it in place. Works a treat! Also, the ‘warmth’ is quite subtle. Makes a nice change to blusher or bronzer.

(WARMTH & MINERAL VEIL)

 

All in all not the best shopping trip I've ever had. Never mind, it happens right?  When I got home I had a little snack whilst making dinner.

 

Blog 038

 

Cut up apple, with almond butter mixed with vanilla protein powder and water.  I have no name for that sauce. All I know is that its yummy and good for you! Im loving apples right now!

 

What was the last purchase you regretted? Do you use Mineral Make up? Do you like Zara?

I don't think the pictures do the rings justice, but they are truly beautiful. What do you think?

 

Do you like big colourful rings? Or do you think they are a bit over the top? Ever been to Forever 21?
