Well lovelies I hope you have all got through Monday! I dont know about you but I suffer from some serious Monday blues at this time of year. To try and perk things up I was hoping to have 2 new videos uploaded for you tonight but YouTube wasn't playing! So that will have to wait until tomorrow night now.I've also been making a nice little note of LOTS of inspiring ideas for posts for you all. I have all my Xmas products to review yet, IMATS haul/reviews...

So yesterday I received notification that Tesco has launched a new health and beauty service.
The service is to include hairdressing, nail and threading bars. I don't know about you but I think this is a fab idea!
I personally have NO time in the week to go anywhere after work and at the weekends, I like to avoid going into town if I can avoid it. I just don't want to walk around with ALL the other people shopping mindlessly.
One thing...

I love that Boots do this...
Every year you get chance to pick up some bargains when they reduce all the 3 for 2 gifts by 50%. MAJOR SAVINGS, particularly on brands such as Ruby and Millie and No7.
I only got to go down today so I think that most of the bargains will have been snapped up some time ago when I think back to how much stuff there was left before Christmas!
But just to be clear I managed to pick up the Ruby and Millie palette and...
So recently I was having a nosey at the beauty trends for 2011 and came across this...

It made me want to do something bright with my eyes as I often stick to similar colours such as golds and browns because they are safe and easy to use.
So this was the look that I ended up creating using the Sleek Circus Palette. I used the white in the inner corners of my eyes and beneath the brows to the crease of my lid. Then used yellow...

So as you know now from time to time I find my self in serious need of a hair wash whilst away from my usual shampoo and conditioner. This time I got to try out Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner.
Firstly, this smells DIVINE - totally coconutty (which I love!). The smell lasts for ages too - even after drying and straightening! I just love it when I get whiffs of my clean scented hair!
So these products lather and apply like...

I remember first seeing Pretty Powerful when I was in a yellow taxi in New York in May. There I was travelling along taking in the sights whilst also viewing the inner taxi tv.Loved it. That in itself was an amazing experience, like just about everything else in NYC.The ladies in the advert were all beautiful and all totally different, which is what I love about Bobbi Brown - it celebrates the beauty in every woman and shows us how to accentuate...

After having a nosey at New Look's collection for this SS I took a look at River Island's offerings. I wouldn't say that they are as accessible (price wise) and as wearable as New Look's, but here are some of my favourites... £44.99 dungarees £34.99 maxi dress£29.99 top £26.99 shorts Price not yet available I particularly love the bottom too - especially the blue top and pink shorts. I think that look would be really cute with the acid makeup trend...

I don't know about you, but I always find the thought of natural products appealing. After a working week of wearing long wear makeup when it comes to Saturday I just want to take everything off my skin and leave it soothed and refreshed.
So this morning before donning mineral makeup only, I gave the toner and serum detailed above a go.
The toner has no scent and is very gentle on my skin. It left my skin feeling clean and refreshed, without...
