Praise the chosen ones

Hi,

This is kind of a weird post but I have just got a praise someone right now because she is actually saving my blogging life. SWEET ELECTRIC!!!. She's called zoe louise and you should definitely visit her blog ( especially if you are a blogger ). I know blogging can be such a mystery with the html and everything. I literally know nothing ( well, I'm learning ) and some people know absolutely everything and their blogs look like heaven in a screen. I start to think... "where did they learn all that?" and zoe louise is one of the chosen ones that is kind enough to share all her angely  wisdom with us dumb ones. She explains everything! From start to finish and if she can't explain it, she leaves links to other chosen ones who can. Also, if you think your brain is going to explode, you can have a break whilst looking at her makeup or skincare labels which are equally... well not helpful because you can't make  a blog based on your knowledge of various hand creams so... interesting. Bye x

How To Be You

Hiya Chummies,
ok for starters that's going to be the first thing to go. Let's start again, shall we?

Hi,
( a lot better ) this post is going to be about feeling ok in your own skin. I always used to try fit in with everyone and have loads of friends but now I'm just going to accept the fact that not everyone likes everyone and you can't try and get people to like you. If they like you, they will be friends with you. 2nd thing. The blog. Recently, doing posts to fit into the whole "beauty and makeup" scheme has felt like a chore for me so from now on I'm going to write posts that make me happy and that I look forward to writing. I know my page views is probably going to go down quite a fair bit but I don't care. I just want people to see me for who I am and not for who I want to be. I hope this has helped you,
See ya' later, Alligator
yep that's got to go too.

Bye x

BEEINSPIRED

Hiya Chummies!
So I went to a farmers market a week ago and came across a small shop called beeinspired and was fascinated by what they do! Basically, they have a... bee farm or whatever and all of their products have honey in them! They don't have anything that isn't needed ( ingredients wise) and have great prices for the value! Their products are made with great care and precision. I got the lip balm and the bath bomb.

I have been using this so much at the moment because I have had very chapped lips due to the cold, It's a very soft and kind on the lips and my lips get quite sensitive when they are chapped. You have to apply this quite frequently and it is a quite wet but is so soothing.

  

This bath bomb gave me quite a shock when I took it out of the packet. As you would have gathered from the pictures, this is more of a bath bomb formula rather than a solid one. I quite like it a bit more because I was introduced to bath bombs with quite bad quality cheap bath bombs. All bath bombs start of as a powder like this one and it always felt that the ones I was introduced to were moulded just with oil because the water always felt really greasy and oily. This bath bomb made me so sleepy! I think it is because of the lavender in it. But, I do have my bath pillow so I can have a rest... 

See ya' later! Alligator.

Burj Khalifa

Hiya Chummies,
If you read my Plane Experiences. Then you will know that I went to Dubai in the half term and went up the tallest building in the world! It is called the Burj Khalifa fornally known as ( Burj Dubai )and is 828m high! The highest observation deck ( the highest the general public can go) is 555m. You can buy flats in it which are pretty pricey...It was opened on 1st October 2009. Here are some pictures of my visit up there!

The Architect (Adrian Smith) got a bit bored when the Burj was finished so he decided to make an ever bigger one! His next building is supposed to 'Cheat The Wind'. It will be called Kingdom Tower and is in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It is going to be 1008m (more than a kilometer!) It will be finished by 2017 if everything goes to plan and there aren't any delays. Here's a picture of it.

See ya' later, Alligator.

Lush Shower Jelly Review

Hiya Chummies!
Ok so I have decided to pull myself together and get my blog back on track so.. you'll be seeing a lot of me (hopefully). This product has been hanging around in the back of my mind for quite some time now and now I finally have it! I'm talking about the Lush Shower Jelly. The one I bought is called WHOOSH and I thought I'd do a review of it. I bought this product from LUSH.

THE FACTS

Ingredients:

Glycerine

Honey

Water

Sodium laureth sulfate

Propylene Glycol

Carrageenan Extract

Perfume

Fresh 

organic lemon juice

Fresh organic lime juice

Grapefruit oil

Rosemary Oil

Geranium Oil

Citral

Gereaniol

Citronellol

Limonene

Linalool

( all the ones with really weird names naturally occur in essentials oils ) 

How to use:

Get it out of the tub and basically use it like a bar of soap. You can pull it apart to make it easier to hold but I find it prettier in the pot if it is whole. 

I used this this morning and I fell in love! It smells like a rainforest. It is so strong and citrusy but it is not unpleasantly strong at all! I was so amazed when I was at the till and they handed me back so much change! This is only £3.50!!!! And lasts forever. Lush is also a beautiful shop to buy products from as they are 100% against animal testing. They don't test anything on animals and they also don't buy any ingredients from places that test on animals. The seeweed extract in this is great for the hair and scalp, surprising because I thought it would make your hair greasy but it doesn't! 

All in all, for me it was love at first sight with this product and I can't say enough good stuff about it! 

See ya' later, Alligator. 

(Although I am reviewing this product, my view is still 100% honest)

Banksy

Hiya Chummies!
So right now, I am going through a Banksy faze. His graffiti is awesome. Banksy is a street artist in Bristol (mainly) and is known for his recognisable graffiti style and his politcal messages. The mysterious thing about him is that his real name, birthplace and date of birth are unknown! Here is some of his art ( all pictures from my board on pintrest.)

See ya' later, Alligator.
