Sekonda - chanel look alike!

I have loved the chanel j12 watch ever since i saw it in vogue a few years ago and have been wishing to win the lottery so i can buy one but thanks to BeautyMarked19 finding a look alike in argos i can have some of the dream... for £19.95!!! I went down to argos in the pouring rain to get my hands on this (thats how much i wanted it!) it came in a lovely white snake skin print box with a velvet cushion. I was a little confused on hoe to open it but after a few mins of trying i figured it out, i love it, it looks so seamless as the clasp is behind the strap so it cant be seen so it looks like a bangle! At first i was a little dissapointed as it is plasticy but once on my wrist i fell in love. It makes me look really tanned and looks exactly like the chanel and very very classy. so thank you BeautyMarked19 for telling the world about your find :) Thanks for reading!

Crown brush review

I ordered some brushes from www.crownbrush.co.uk a while ago so i thought i'll give a review.. i ordered a B2 blush, large chisel brush, a shadow crease, stiff tapered crease, a blending fluff and a bent eyeliner (same order in picture). They were soo cheap the most expensive was the large chisel brush at £4.69. The smaller blusher brush is a little on the synthetic crunchy side but still soft and picks up the product fine. The large brush is a great dupe for the MAC 134 with the size, its nice and heavy and i use it for contouring as it has a flat, slim end. The small blending brush was a bit smaller than i was expecting but does the job great and blends the colours together nicely. I love the next blending brush because it gets into my crease and has a tapered end which is great for putting dark colours right on the corner. The next brush is the large eye brush which i use for all over colour as a base. The last brush is the bent eyeliner brush which i don't really like because the end isn't tapered and pointed its just blunt however I'm used to angled brushed so i will have to get used it. The postage is about £3-£4 but i ordered mine before 12 and got it the next day!!! It came in an envelope with fragile and bubble wrap so they wouldn't get damaged I think crown brush is a great place to get brushes because they are soo cheap and affordable whereas drugstores have brushes for a much higher price and probably the same quality. They have hundreds of brushes on there so everyone will be able to find what they are looking for, they also do brush sets. I will definatly be buying again. Thanks for reading!!

An order from fragrance direct!

I was searching through looking for some cheap perfume and i found fragrance direct! they have loads of cheap stuff on there! so i ordered nyx lipgloss (£1.99), 2faced palette ( the starlette)(£2.99) and Nicki clarke colour revitaliser for brunette (£2.99 for 6) when i opened the box i thought what these are so small! but its OK, they look bigger on the website! This is the nyx lipgloss, i really like it but it is sheer i was hoping for the mac style warriors yellow lipgloss colour but it still gives a slight yellow tone. The smell reminds me of marzipan and the ear infection medicine i used to get when i was a child which i really like, it brings back memories of chicken pox (lol). The wand it very strange its like a stretched doe foot. But overall i really like it, im definatly going to order more and try and find a store that sell them in the uk. This is the colour revitaliser, it doesnt look very big but it has LOADS of product in, its brown like hair dye but i think it adds more brown to dull hair. I've only used it once and it took me a while to figure out it foams soi foamed it inbetween my hands and massaged it into my hair, left it for 10mins and washed it out then conditioned, I felt it made my hair dry but when i conditioned it felt fine. I've only used it once so far and i feel it did make my hair more multi toned and brought out my natural highlights, so far so good with this product. This is what the palette looks like! It has 2 lipglosses that turn really liquidy when you touch them, i really like the pink one because it's really glossy and makes my lips look pouty! The eyeshadows are very easy to pick up and very pigmented and very shimmer.There is a gold and a sparkly purple. The bronzer is very pigmented and is hard to blend so i need to use a fan brush so i dont get brown circles. But over all £2.99 well spent! Thanks for reading! Jodie xx

Home made Face mask!

I felt like a pamper day today and wondered how i could use the mint i had growing in my bedroom. I searched through the Internet but couldn't find anything of interest so made my own!! Ingredients: about 10 mint leaves a dribble of olive oil 3 tbsp of maple syrup (something sticky so golden syrup or honey would be fine) a 2cm slice of cucumber(chopped into small pieces or you can blend them into a paste) and a few tsp of cornflower(or something to make it thicker) (as you can see i picked up anything i could find) I put the mint in a little bowl (A pestle and mortar would be perfect), i use a rolling pin and broke the mint down(in a swirling motion) so the oil and juice can be released, i sloshed the oil in there to make it a little mixable. I continued to break down the mint for a few more minutes, added the cucumber and broke it down. I then added the maple syrup and stirred it, if it is too watery for you then add the cornflour to make it thicker. i went to the sink and put it onmy face, waited for about an hour and washed it off! My skin felt tighter and my pores looked invisible and my skin felt nice a soft! I hope this homemade face mask works for you to! and i hope you can understand my intructions! Jodie xx
