So i went shopping today, though i was bit tired and grumpy. I got some fabric so i am going to think of what to do with it later :) maybe a bag, not sure.
I got some lush goodies and got to look at the christmas products. I bought Star Melt, Ma Bar and Oatifix face mask. Can't wait to use them and hopefully they will give me the lift i need :)
Going to have a busy day tomorrow, which is good i think.
Also dying my hair tonight, finally, havent done it since july and its a mess. Im growing it out though, i want long thick hair and when i do want a change, ill have more options if i dont have short layers etc.
off to do things

I have been kinda lazy.
and kinda don't like to update this blog because i feel like no one is reading it :P
But i do have valid excuses like i have been really busy with college, this year is a lot harder than last.
It's half term and theres a few things i want to get done before i got back to college. Lately, i have been wanting to make things and sew. So thats what i am going to do. I am going shopping tomorrow and im going to pick up some fabric and make a tote bag. They seem super easy to make, and i do love bags a lot. I refuse to let myself be indecisive about the fabric too. Last time i went to that shop i left with nothing, which happens too often.
I also plan to go to lush tomorrow, i want to try out the oatifix fresh face mask and see if they have the christmas stuff in store.
I have a driving lesson this week too. My third one. I think i am doing okay, but i keep forgetting things, and losing concentration.
I also have to get my homework done. Snore. I can't wait to finish college and get a job

I went shopping a couple of weeks ago..
and i spent too much money in LUSH. haha.
I wanted to wait until i did this post as i seem to post about lush a lot and i dont want this to be just a lush blog.
On to my purchases...
I wanted to go to LUSH because i hadn't had any porridge soap in a couple of weeks as i ran out and i really wanted some more. I really can't recommend the stuff enough. It's just so lovely.
Also i was running out of angels on bare skin and wanted to switch up my cleanser.
Here is what i came away with..
Working clockwise L-R.. Porridge soap, tea tree water toner, cosmetic warrior facemask, ice blue soap, grease lightning, sugar babe, fresh farmacy cleanser, whoosh shower jelly.
My thoughts:
Porridge Soap - Love, love, love this stuff! Makes my skin soft and moisturised and smells sooo good. I need a life time supply.
Tea tree water - I got this because i was running out of my other one, but since buying it, i have been using it less and less and i'm now feeling i dont need it. I normally use it before and after using a face mask. It's nice to have but i don't feel like i need it.
Cosmetic warrior face mask - I have written about this before here.
Ice blue soap - I have been wanting to try this for a while, i love the fresh, minty wake you up smells and this is one of them, but it's not too strong. I didn't know what to expect from this, it isn't fantastic, it's not rubbish, so in between there i guess haha. Wouldn't buy it again but it is pleasant to use.
Grease Lightning - So this wasn't much purchase, my sister got it and i have been using it. A lot. haha. It's a spot treatment and it's not half bad. I wasn't expecting much because i haven't had great results with any spot treatments in the past, but it does help to keep spots at bay by drying them up a bit, but it doesn't work miracles.
Sugar Babe - This was free. The £20 deal or something. Spend £20 and get a choice of one of the new products. Though im sure this isnt that new, they did have a couple of new soaps in which i didn't like the smell (one was like coffee and one was like salad) so i randomly picked this. I haven't used it yet, though i took it out the bag to smell it and it crumbled everywhere, im not sure how many uses i will get out of it, i will report back :)
Fresh Farmacy - I have written about this a bit before (here) and i'm pretty sure the formula has changed. It is much more drying then i remember, and though it does help with spots a bit, it's not great for areas of skin that aren't affected. Would only recommend to use this a few times a week, or if you have very oily skin.
and lastly....
Whoosh shower jelly - Love this stuff, really wakes me up when i feel ill or just a bit rubbish. Very refreshing, not drying though not moisturising either, it is great to use in the mornings.
I am going to try and do less lush posts and post about other stuff now! Promise :)

Craft.
For a very long, well since around last summer time, i had been wanting to try to make my own jewellery. So a year later.. I finally grab some findings and beads and got started :)
I haven't made much, but i have lots of ideas that i still need to put together.
Here is the first charm bracelet i made. It's not fantastic, i know, but it's sturdy as nothing has fallen off.. yet haha.
Here is a necklace i made, at first i had a chain on it but then i changed it to ribbon because i thought it would be cute and im still not sure what i am going to do with it, i'll come up with something
Here is a longer necklace i made. I thought the green heart pendant was cute and it inspired me to do something cluster like. Sorry for the tiny picture, i couldn't seem to get a good shot.
Last thing i am going to show you is this ring. It's made from a paper clip and a piece of ribbon. I saw a tutorial on a blog but i can't remember which :( I intended for it to be a bit smaller and i am going to put a cute charm or button in the centre. Just haven't got around too it yet :P typical.
I want to make some more now just typing about it.
Also i got this book from amazon.co.uk the other day.
108 ways to transform a t-shirt!
It shows you how to transform tshirt's into cute top's, skirt's, bag's, accessories and even has a diy wedding dress!
I'm excited, I can't wait to try some of these ideas, especially the bag ideas, they are so cute!
