I don’t usually post the free gift things on magazines unless they really interest me or are relevant to you who read my blog. However while I was picking up a loaf of bread this morning I saw on the front of Cosmopolitan (April 2012 issue) they are doing a…

YouTube: Get Ready With Me (Makeup Part 1)
I thought I’d do something a little fun today, so at 7am this morning with no makeup on (Scary I know!) I decided to do a ‘Get Ready With Me’ youtube video. This is only the makeup side as my hair is done in another room and lighting would be…

I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to write this post or not. There is things many of you know I keep out of my blog; like my children. This is for numerous reasons but mostly safety. I’m not saying I think you are stalkers etc, but it’s my way of…

30SomethingMel and the History of my Hair
After a chat on Twitter with BeautysBadHabit (Lily) and reading her post on her own bad hair adventures I thought I would join her. This post could lose me any creditability on my hair dressing skills – I should point out some styles are by accident, by misfortune and through…
How I Store My Beauty and Hair Products/Utensils – My Everyday Things
I’ve seen so many Vlogs and Blogs recently on how people store their things. I don’t really have a special way of storing things although they are all in 1 room (2 if you count my en-suite which is in my bedroom). So I thought I’d share with you some…
