#42 MAC Brave Red Lipstick Review
I bought this lipstick back in December but I’ve only worn it twice, once back in December on a night out and the second time was today! After wearing it to simply go to the supermarket (my life is that glamorous, the joys of being a mother) I have decided I am in love! It’s called Brave Red with a cremesheen finish which is one of my favourite finishes in MAC lipstick however on the website it doesn’t look a nice colour at all and is described as a red-yellow! If I had been ordering offline I’d of never given it a second look, but I bought it from a…

#41 The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon Review
Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057. He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human emotions. He cannot stand to be touched. And he detests the color yellow. This improbable story of Christopher’s quest to investigate the suspicious death of a neighborhood dog makes for one I have been recommended this book more than a dozen times but only recently got my hands on a copy. I know this is technically a young adults book but I know when I was classed as a young adult I would not have enjoyed this at…

#39 Make My Home, a H&M Home!
When I think of home inspiration and decoration, I have never thought “Hey, lets look in H&M!” but this has changed since the most recent catalogue dropped through my door last week! I am impressed & in love, but also upset that I no longer have a home to decorate. However I have started collecting stuff for when I have my own place. It all gets boxed up and stored for when the time comes. Anyway, in case you haven’t seen H&M’s S/S13 home collection, here are my favourite bits! Glittery Placemat £6.99 // Bird Patterned Duvet Cover £29.99 // Book Curtain £12.99Cherry Blossom Guest Towels (2 Pack) £6.99Pink Canvas…

#38 Recipe No.3 Prawn Noodle Bowls
So, tomorrow is my first weigh in after dieting for a week. I have no idea what i’ll have lost since my dad insisted on a massive Indian take-away at the weekend, however my mum and sister have insisted all week i’ve lost weight but to be perfectly honest I think they’re bored already of my intense calorie counting and weight watching. In my view, if you’re going to do it, do it right not half arsed. Tonight it was my turn to cook again because my mum was out with my sister, I decided to do a variation of something else I saw in Jamie’s 15 Minute Meals, but…

#37 Recipe No.2 Mexican Sweetcorn Chowder
I woke up this morning with the makings of a head cold and since it was freezing cold I knew it was the kind of day that everyone would appreciate a big warming pan of soup. When grocery shopping the other week I bought a can of creamed corn so I could make my favourite soup at some point in the future, the future being today. Mexican corn chowder has to be my favourite soup. I got the recipe from the first ever cook book I owned, a cheap little Mexican cook book from one of those Bargain Books stores. I loved it but it was ruined by some broken…

Soap & Glory Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser Review
Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser £10 @ Boots I’ve been desperate to try a hot cloth cleanser for a while now but I could only really find really cheap ones that from the ingredients list I knew would destroy my skin, or really expensive ones I knew I could never afford on a regular basis therefore I didn’t want to get used to it then not be able to buy it! Anyway my besties are huge Soap & Glory fans and while we lived together I was never really into it but after been worn down, I decided to give the brand a go. At Christmas I bought three items…
