Girls only Sunday :)

For as long as I can remember Little monster has always spent a Sunday at her mammars, they have Sunday dinner together, do the local car boots and then she comes home but this weekend she was home and I made sure we had lots of us time, Dad went out so we made it a girls only day and made a list of things to do.

 

First we did our usual stuff, breakfast, teeth, face, hair ect and then the real fun started, we picked out face masks, hair masks and nail colours and cover the sofa in cushions.

 

We put our hair and face masks on a relaxed for a little while, sipping juice and talking about our week, you can see my review on the 7th Heaven masques here

We grabbed a quick shower and dried our hair and got the curlers out, we painted our nails and put on temporary tattoos and then shared some soup.

We did a little reading and had cuddles then settled down to colour our books for a little while.

 

 and then after her fantastic swimming on Friday we promised her a prize that contained jewels and it came in the form of a plastic mould of a jewel bag that contained 4 jewel to be dug out. These are what she founds, they are glass and she was really impressed with them :)

 

 

 

All in all we had a lovely day and Little monster was excited to tell her dad all about it when he got home, I can't wait for another 'just us' day in the coming weeks and the holidays are set to be super busy and super fun.

7th Heaven Masques

I love face masks but I have sensitive skin so i'm very careful what I put on my face, I also love a good hair mask, something nourishing that helps my awful hair is always a plus.

This weekend was the first weekend in a long whilst that it would just be me and the little monster which I'll blog about In another post but I made sure we had time to relax and masque ourselves :)

The guys over at 7th Heaven sent these for us to try and we loved them!!!

 

These are safe for sensitive skin and my lovely assistant little monster joined me with her fresh face, we started off applying the Banana & honey masque which is for combination and dry skin and cleans up and soothes skin.

It smells good enough to eat, it's creamy and smooth and instantly cools your skin, it's suggested you leave it on for 10-15 minutes so we relaxed for 10 minutes before applying the hair masques.

 

10 minutes later....

 

Next we applied the hair masques, I went for the pulped papaya rescue masque which adds deep shine for dull lifeless hair and after swimming 8 times a month for the last three months my hair is pretty lifeless. It went on very creamy but next time i'd pick up two as one only did half of my hair but it smelled great and really added moisture to my hair.

Little monster opted for the Manuka honey rescue masque for repairing and strengthening damaged roots and dry hair, sadly she has super dry hair because she now swims 16 times a month :o (her choice not mine).

 

Both masks have gorgeous scents than have lasted all day, whilst mine didn't cover enough of my hair to say it was the most amazing thing ever it is super soft without being fly away and little monsters is really soft and shiny.

 

All in all we loved the masques, everything about them was just what we needed and the next time we have a little down time together we'll be reaching for the 7th heaven masques again.

 

RRP: £1

My Made With Love By Stacie Review

There are so many people out there offering wood and glitter items but after looking around I found a lady who not only offered a great service at a reasonable cost but also seem to take the time to offer you what you were actually looking for over what was in stock or needed selling quickly.

I first saw Stacie's 'Sparkle' designs but quickly settled on a second piece for my little one for her birthday being this beauty.

 

It is so much more sparkly than the photo shows, i'm not doing it much justice as it's in my hallways at the minute until this weekend when I can get some hooks up in Evie's room. Every time we open the front door it glitters and glistens all over so hopefully it'll have the same effect from the sunshine in her room.

 

This is the piece I first saw and fell in love with, I wanted something that wasn't too bright and colourful and our house isn't huge and too much colour makes rooms small but I wanted it to stand out from it's little spot on the wall, the glitter is super sparkly and the colours are really deep, it's placed just at the bottom of our stairs near the door so every day when I leave the house I see it and smile, the quality is fab and the customer service is second to none.

 

I've added some images from Stacie's page so you can see some other things she can do, they are perfect as gifts for birthdays, Christmas, weddings ect and all come in the colour and style you want and most are customisable.

postage is available or you can collect from Nottingham

 

Body Jewellery Shop review

So these three little cuties turned up on my door last week and i'm in love <3 !!
I found the site when looking for Earpiercing jewellery online and it sells absolutely everything you can think of for piercings on any part of the body, I have a few odd placed piercings and I struggle to find jewellery to fit but I found plenty and with ease on this site.

 

First of all I picked this lovely little pair of Pink glitter earings, they are so pretty to look at and even without light they glisten which is so nice, they come in various colours and images on the earring but these were my favourite.

 

You can find them here :)

Pink Glitter Stud Earrings

 

 

Then I picked these two gorgeous ear stirrups, sadly they are a little small for my current piercing but that's my fault for not measuring before ordering so i'm off in two weeks to have a smaller part of my ear pierced so I can get some use out of them (trust me I never need an excuse to get another piercing) they are really well made and so delicate looking but sturdy, I've pulled and pushed at these and nothing budges that isn't supposed to which can be an issue with cheap jewellery, thankfully the lower price doesn't mean cutting corners on quality.

 

You can find these two here:

Heart Drops stirrup barbell

and

Jewel flower stirrup barbell

Crafty afternoon

I'm writing this post on my mobile which is new for me so I'm not sure what order anything will show but here goes.

Today I had a little spare time to get crafty, were planning an Alice in wonderland style tea party for our little ones birthday but we don't have a huge budget, I'm a stickler for saving jars and pots so I decided they'd be great for the center peices and sweetie jars, I got some acrylic paints and went for a simple graduating dotty style in two colours and added some ribbon, they look cute and can be used again as pen pots ect
I came across some cute ready sticky gems from poundland and figured I'd find a use for them, I also found some plastic martini glasses which are cute! I added the gems around the edge which are in strips and they came out great, I'll be layering colours jelly in them and added a spoon with a 'eat me' label :)

I hope you can see everything on this post :)

Ozeri weightmaster II bathroom scales review

I never thought I could fall in love with a set of scales but I have with these, they are sleek looking, easy to use and helpful.

First of all taking them out of the box they weren't bulky like many are, they just needed a tab removing before they were ready to start using, then it was just a case of entering my height and standing on the scales to give my weight reading and it gave me my BMI and also indicated after the first use if there was any weight gain or lose.

 

They have a sleek glass panel and a touch screen in the centre but the sturdy outer casing means you aren't worried about knocking them and them breaking, they aren't heavy so can be packed away anywhere if you don't have a large bathroom to leave them out and they won't break the bank.

They aren't threating and I wasn't worried if I got a red light for a little weight gain, I find the little nudge endearing and helpful, you can even turn off the numbers if you find them off putting and just monitor your weight via the lights.

 

You can find them on Amazon UK Ozeri weightmaster II

REALLY EGO-CE4 1100mAh Deluxe Kit Review

The guys at REALLY let me get my hands on this kit: EGO-CE4 1100mAh Deluxe Kit and I have to say i'm impressed, it all came posted super quick in this nifty little box.

 

It has this magnetic side which stops things falling out and everything has isn't own place inside, once open your given not one but two batteries, two cartomizers, a charger and cable and everything is easy to pack away.

 

You get a lot for your money and it's ideal to take one out to use whilst another charges instead of having to wait around for your only one to be ready and then it dying on you since these give you up to 15 hours of vaping. The liquids come in so many flavours and a decent sized bottle unlike the standard smaller ones offered on the market the scent is really strong from the menthol but it's not an unrealistic flavour to taste, often they are more like chewing minty gum but this is just like a menthol cigarette, the top fits perfectly into the E-cig so there's no mess, no trying to fit big tops into small spaces.

 

It's really easy to put together, really easy to use and really good value for money,

It's currently at a low price and in with that you get everything seen here but instead of the liquid you get a free carry case, also if you use the code 'really10' you can get a further discount on purchases.
