    PINK!

    So, in a spur of spontaneity last night, this happened! I’m not sure if it was a “omg, I’m turning 28” rebellion or what, but I have to say, it’s nice looking in the mirror and seeing colourful hair! I layered the colours, the top is a pale pink blonde-y colour, underneath it’s a dark magenta, with a few shades between. Have you ever dyed your hair an ‘un natural’ colour?

    Nail love!

    Up until I was around 23, I was a chronic nail biter. It was bad. I don’t remember what happened, but one day, I just stopped.  Since then, i’ve enjoyed painting my nails and playing around with nail art. I can’t really afford to get my nails done professionally, so i’ve kind of taught myself the basics. Whilst browsing kmart the other day, I came across the new nail section and found these pots of nail glitter, along with rolls of nail foil, flocking and caviar. Being the magpie I am, I decided to pick up the fine glitter and holographic sparkles to try. The jar comes attached to a piece of…

    To dye, or not to dye?

    I love colourful hair. If you’re only new to the blog, you will only know me as having this brown/blonde ombre hair colour, but before that, it’s been all sorts of colours. From the age of around 13, I’ve been dying my hair. When I first watched the film clip for No Doubts “Ex-Girlfriend” and saw Gwen rocking bright pink braids, I knew that one day I would have pink hair. My current colour is the most natural colour i’ve probably had in 10 years, and the fact that it’s been the same colour for around 8 months is, well, pretty crazy for me. I went away on holidays with…

    Simple, easy ghd hair!

    I was contacted recently and asked if I’d like a ghd to review in exchange for a post on my blog sharing a hairstyle in which I use to ghd. While I actually decline a lot of sponsored posts, I jumped at the chance to do this. I’d only used a ghd once, a couple years ago, but it was love at first use. My hair straightener has however seems to have lasted forever and I’ve never had the excuse to have to go buy a ghd. I have to say, I’m kind of in love with the ghd even more, and that’s the truth. I used to be a bit…

    Can you help my face?

    That there is my skin. No photoshop, no lighting, just re-sized. It’s been a long time since my skin has been so temperamental. I’ve always had reasonably good skin, when I get stressed of depressed I may break out a little (I am currently both), but I also think ageing has something to do with it. I don’t really do much with my skin, I cleanse &  moisturise every three days. I hardly ever wear make up. So this is where I ask you, for your help & suggestions! Most of my skin is normal, however my “t-zone” is dry. If I break out, it’s only ever on my forehead…
