No problem.

They have Silver, Black, Pink & Gold. I like them all, but I looooove the Silver. They're super cheap too, I think about £2.99 so even if you don't like them you haven't broken the bank trying them.

Thank you! I've not managed cold turkey quite yet, but I figure if I can at least get down to 5 a day to start off with or less I'd be able to quit easier from there.

Clash 24/7 Shadow Pencil…even Stitch loves it! - check out my specktra blog review on the ud 24/7 shadow pencils. i really do love these babies! i wrote this review a few months ago and didn't own sin... but now i have that one and i like it even more than clash!

Also - I'm trying to quit smoking. I've probably had about 3 in the past 48hrs. This is major considering I usually smoke 20 in a day. The withdrawal isn't too bad, however I'm exhausted. So, so tired I feel like I could sleep for a week. I know it's due to not smoking as much as usual and it's so exhausting I almost want to smoke more just so I can feel more awake, but I'm resisting. I'm quite bitchy, too, which is horrible. I hate being so moody but there's nothing I can do about it. I really want to save money by quitting, or at least cutting down dramatically. I'll feel less guilty about buying make-up etc if I do. Bahhh, I'll do it. I know I will. It's just frustrating.

Good luck! You can get a free NHS quit kit here: http://smokefree.nhs.uk/quit-tools/quit-kit/
I'm a science teacher and I've just done about smoking with my year 7s, the most interesting thing I found out is that each cigarette takes 11 minutes off your life!!

OMG Laura, that's bloody scary!

I don't even want to count how many weeks/months I smoked away. If I was still smoking, I'd probably just go cold turkey, you just scared me with that so much!

Thanks for this, thankfully theres nothing that really interests me which is good cause I should be saving anyways!

 

[AndSparkle]

Oooh, thank god it lasts till the end of the month. I've just got myself a first stage interview at Asda next week for a p/t job, so hopefully I'll get it and can get some money! I've never felt so skint in all my life, it's so horrible and I can't really sign on JSA cause I'll hopefully be going to university.. it's so annoying.
But yeah.. hopefully things change next week.

ooohh awesome! if only i had some spare cash! today i was a bit naughty and bought the mini cleanse off oil, fix+ and the in this season lip gelee... this lip gelee is so fabulous! i swear swatches and such haven't done it justice because when i saw it in the store i knew i had to have it! it even has some teal sparkles!

 

[AndSparkle]

Do the sparkles still lurk around after the lipgelee has faded? I got Resort Life and I hate it - I wish they went back to the 'jelly' kinda gloss instead of sparkle overload - I find it dries my lips out and looks like I've applied pure glitter onto my lips instead of lipgloss!

yeah the glitter does linger but i quite like that. i'm a teenage girl on the inside obviously! lol! i just top up with lip balm. i also have resort life but i love it! i guess everybodies tastes are different right? mac need to do more glosses like mimmy though - that was very jelly like and really nice!

 

[Anitacska]

Yeah, I love the glittery lipgelees too! I got all 3, although Budding Beauty isn't very shimmery at all. I also have some Accessorize ones which are so glittery, but I love them, obviously I also have a teenager lost in me.

Hahaha, the weird thing is it's only the lipgelee shimmer/glitter I hate - I love the dazzleglass type, just not lipgelee. Oh well.


Has anyone tried the John Frieda Sheer Blonde lightening spray? Just got a bottle tonight.. and I'm really curious to see if it works!

oh i bought a bottle last week! i used it once and couldn't see a difference but it says you have to use it at least 3 times until you do. i have now just had my highlights done though so i won't need to use it for a long while!

 

[AndSparkle]

I used it last night, and I see a difference on my highlights and roots - they've started to blend in a bit more, although the difference is subtle atm. I'm just hoping the red-ness of some areas tones down a bit before monday so I don't need to get my hair done

For anyone else who, like me, has been stalking their local Boots for Stila to appear, Stila now have a list of Boots stockists on their website. Unfortunately for me there's none in Reading - the nearest is Surrey or Oxford! Boo.

Hope everyone else had great weather today - it was beautiful here, so I did some very summery makeup (long since faded away, seeing as I was at work 9am - 7.30pm!). Laura Mercier Illumunating tinted moisturiser, paired with bronzey shimmery smokey eye, a coral shimmer blush on the cheeks, bronzer, and a coral ligloss from Chanel.

I noticed a small Stila stand in the Lakeside Boots.........also on their website they state they will start international shipping in a couple of weeks. might be pricey though..

Thanks for telling us about this. Unfortunately, there's only one in Kent, and that's at Bluewater - a long way from me. Bluewater seem to get everything!

Ahhh my Boots has a Stila.. thats actually a surprise to me, although there would have been space after R&M sold out.
