Dates for your Diaries

Aloha Bloggerinos,

In these economically tight times, it is crucial to remain beautiful on a budget. To help you a long (not that you need much help mind), here are a few dates that I have actually put in my diary....hmmm, is that a bit sad that I have full on written them down? Uh oh.

Dates to await...

4th-6th June- Big 50% Sale on all Bella Sugar Cosmetics products. I have written rave reviews about this magic stuff and already know what I will be ordering!! There are eyeshadow palettes in singles, fours, nines or a whopping 18! Yowzas!

8th June- Glamour Magazine is doing it's Benefit edition. Each mag will come with one of three different Benefit items. Now I can't recall precisely which ones but I seem to recall it being an eyeliner, a highlight or aaaaaaaaa.....somethinger! Benefit freebies make the mag sell out fast so be speedy! Benefit for £2? Yes Please!!

8th June (we'll be busy!)- More Magazine is giving away a voucher for a free Barry M Dazzle Dust. Ooooohh yyeeaaahhh!!

So looks like the next few days are going to be bargainous beauties, yay!

Toodlepip!

Lou's Reviews and NOTD- 2True Pink Polish

Aloha Bloggerinos,

Before my flu took hold I popped into Superdrug for a bit of a spree. I tried to be good, I really did but I ended up purchasing quite a few bits. The only upside is that I picked up very low priced items so it's not alllll bad.

This is a new range of nail varnishes by 2True. 2True is what I would call a 'budget brand' but I bloomin' love it! As is often the case with budget brands, the polish does not have a colour name on it, but just "Shade 1". For £1.95, I'm not going to quibble with that.

The bottle is pretty slim so you aren't going to get a great deal of product, but can I just ask, who has ever gotten to the bottom of a nail polish? Not me.

This is a lovely Barbie pink and after 2 coats (and a quick China Glaze top coat), it is opaque, sheenyshiny and perfectly girlie. In short, I love it! I am even considering having it as my wedding day nail colour- how's that for polish commitment?!

The bottle boasts to have a "flat top brush", but I can't say I noticed the difference.

10/10 for quality and lovelieness! Well done Superdrug 2True! Rave rave rave! haha

Toodlepip!

PS.

I have a question for you international ladies. What products are there in the UK that you have seen and like the look of, that you can't get in the country you are from? Please do let me know and all will be revealed next week.

Excuse me, could you turn the rain off?

Aloha Bloggerinos,

Just sorting through my pictures from the weekend and thought you might enjoy this one.

I had just shlepped round Liverpool One (the nicest shopping place ever in my opinion-anyone know it?) in the pouring rain, then, outside Tesco Metro, this reeaallllyy burly market stall man shouted "Geeeeettt your umBREllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssss!!!!" so loudly that I nearly lost my hearing!! I was so startled that I practically walked into him, mumbled my apologies and do you know what he replied, six whole inches from my face? "GEEEEETTTT YOURR UMBRELLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS!!".

I thought I should buy one being as a) I was drowning and b) I suspected Mr Umbrella (ella,ella, ella) might stab me to death with a brolly spoke if I didn't "get my umbrellaaaaa".

£3 and an awful bedraggled barnett later, I arrived at the train station ready for a mammoth shlep round Manchester. I blame the rain and cold for my deathly flu!! I've been snoozing all afternoon and have woken up looking a right treat! Yikes!

So Bloggerinos, have a little chuckle and stay indoors!

Toodlepip!
