What I've learnt...

Myself and Miss Faux Fur spent a whole day out and about yesterday, we went to a museum, shopping, bar and then crashed out watching a film with me peddling all my various beauty products. I have a calrins skincare counter in my room as well as various nail and moisturisers haha!! Could we be any cooler than sitting watching Eclipse with HydraQuench Clarins face mask and pizza? I think not!

Things I've learnt this weekend...

- Museums are such fun places.

- Interactive museum displays are the most fun.

- Miss Faux Fur is not team anyone on Twilight...she's just 'Team Boys'. (Team Edward all the way for me!Although I still appreciate Jacob haha!)

- Some men are romantic still (after being regaled by stories from random guy in a bar).

- Sometimes men go into a black hole due to trying to do the right thing (according to guy in bar after being quizzed by Miss Faux Fur haha!)

- Some Topshop dresses don't look right one anyone.

- What I thought were just very fine lines around my lines are actually dehydration lines- hence the film and Hydra Quench mask.

- Myself and Miss Faux Fur can waste hours in a bar drinking coke (I was designated driver) and half lager and limes.

- I still get excited at the prospect of going to the pictures (Off to see Mr Pattinson in Water for Elephants today). Who doesn't love pick&mix and trailers for new films?!
- I must drink more boring water.
- Myself and Miss Faux Fur are good at saving money before our next trip away- hence the movie night in.


Even though it's not that sunny where I am I wanted to share a song which always makes me feel sunny - even when it was snowy this did the trick :-)

Labrinth- Let The Sunshine

 

Flash...

I'm going to let oyu into a little secret today. It's one of my most treasured beauty products ever. It will come as no suprise when I tell you that I have been looking rather tired lately.It was starting to show through my make up...yes...exhaustion had set in big time. However, before Christmas I bought new skin care and this little beauty was in the same range so I spurged (It had swavorski crystals around the lid for a special edition - how could I say no!?) and added it to my collection. It was Beauty Flash Balm by Clarins.

Sleep in a tube...

When I first started using it, I noticed a change but couldn't figure out what it was (I didn't think it could be doing what it said on the tube). I continued using and being unable to figure out what it did. Then one day after make up I realised... It was making me look brighter, glowing and awake. Once I'd noticed that subtle change I began to love it for more than just its swavorski crystals... the bond between me and it deepened. I even wore only that (as it's great without make-up) and some eyeliner when I went out the other week and felt bright!

So now I can look bright and awake when in fact I'm tired and bleary eyed. Thank goodness for beauty products sometimes.
