Santas beeeeeeen =D

I hope you all have had a totally lovely Christmas and Santa was good to you all. Well i have been a spoilt little girly this year =)

Here's what i got....

Ignore date lol
Sorry for my photography skills they aren't the best lol. But you kind of get the gist of what i got hehe. What did you get?

I totally love Christmas because it is a time where u can just get together with your family and spend a full day just with them which does not happen that often when everyone can get it off work etc so i have great deal of love for Christmas day because i am a huge family girl =)

Hope you all had a spiffing Christmas =D


Much love

Review: Scrumptious Lip Balm Good Enough To Eat

Blistex Raspberry Lemonade Blast


First of all i want to say WOW this is the nicest tasting lip balm like EVER and yes i know you are not meant to eat it lol but you just can't resist licking your lips when you wear it it's CRAZY.

I am a HUGE fan of this not only does it taste nice it smells really nice and also moisturises your lips really well.

I have had a lot of compliments about it when the girls at work etc have tried it.

I would definitely say try it for yourself its a great product

Review: Hair Saviour - Batiste Dry Shampoo

Ok i am a total LOVER of dry shampoo it saves my life while making my hair smell LUSH =)

I have tried a few from their collection.....

1. Tropical - This is my norm i LOVE this one and can't get enough of the smell of it! mmmmmmmm

2. Blonde Hint of Colour - I have used this one before but i went back to the tropical because the colour looked a little odd in my hair. Not a huge fan.


3. Blush - I am really not a floral kind of smelliness person lol so i didnt really enjoy this....tooooo flowery for me but it works just as well as the tropical one bar the smell. =)


4. XXL Volume - this is the newest out of the collection i have tried. Don't get me wrong it totally does give you volume and is very effective more for up dos i would say because it makes your hair feel extremely coarse and full of product. I don't really like this due to the fact it makes your hair feel so stuck together and dry where as i dont find the others do.

I think the next one i want to try is the WILD mind you i probably will still totally revert back to TROPICAL because i don't personally think you can beat it =)

Wrap Bracelets ADDICTIVE!

Ok so by now you have probably noticed i have a slight addictive personality.

I am totally and completely addicted to making wrap bracelets inspired by the Chan luu bracelets!

They are relatively easy to make and just look totally B-E-A-U-tiful lol.

Here are a few i have made so far......

This is the 1st one i made with thicker cord on the outside and contrasting thread

This one and the one below are made with the same colour thread to the cord and slightly thinner cord


Simple button fastenings

sorry this picture quality sucks a little

I need more beads and thread so i can crack on making more i love them!

Also i am not sure if i like the thicker or thinner cord bracelets best what are your thoughts???

Thanks

Katie
