iPhone and Instagram

It's sad but I have only just got an iPhone and its more sadder that the first app I downloaded was Instagram. I have had an iPad before so I know all the apps are amazing on the apple store. I knew about Instagram before but I have never had an account and never really understood it. Same really goes for twitter, think Facebook is just easier to use. Unless I'm just really stupid lol. Anyways I downloaded Instagram, made an account (shopaholic2400 if you want to follow me) and I love it! I like to look on there as it inspires me, bit like Pinterest ( which I'm addicted too). What's useful about Pinterest is that if you like something, you can look on the link of what website it's from and then you start to love the website link. I think the Internet is so amazing but think you all know that :) The thing with Instagram is sharing photos you have took yourself and inspire others or get inspiration from others. Just say I brought a new purse and posted it to Instagram, then people might like it and want to buy it. I think that's what I would like to use Instagram for - INSPIRATION...

I'm Back!

So after a long time of not being on here , I'm back with a blog post.
I don't know if any of you know about a website called Swap-bot.com, but its an amazing website where you swap items from all around the world. I loved to swap sweets , especially getting sweets from America (Razzles are amazing).  I have had some lovely swaps.

I have also got into postcard swapping on postcrossing.com. Think its just nice to get postcards from around the world. So i suppose you could call me a postcard collector now :)

We are moving home soon , this will be my second home with my boyfriend and 4th home altogether lol. I want it to be so perfect and so organized. I have brought so many baskets and tubs just to organize things. My boyfriend and his dad have been decorating the new home before we actually move in. We have done some packing, but its just all the things from the loft for now. I hate packing, I prefer unpacking and seeing where all the items go in our new home.

I am on my summer holidays at the moment , nice to have time off from work.

Hope you all having a lovely Summer :)

The Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain 


If you don't know about these - OMG Seriously you should know about them. They are the best lip products I have ever tried. I have fell in love with them since I tried them. If you have not then you need to go out now (yes even if its the middle of the night) and get one of these last longing lip stains. 

They last all day, I come home with shock to see that the lip stain is still on my lips. 

Colours I have brought so far are CHERISH & RENDEZVOUS. Cherish is a beautiful pink, I didn't realize though how bright it was going to be. It is a bright pink, like a barbie pink I think. Still its beautiful. Rendezvous is a gorgeous red. I would say it has a hint of orange to it. I love this colour, as it really suits me. 

This product is worth getting and I can't wait til I get the rest of the colours. 



How to make Homemade Body Butter


You will need:

  • 15g Shea butter
  • 15g Coconut oil
  • 15g Cocoa butter
  • 5ml (one teaspoon) Almond oil
  • 50g Jar
  • 10 drops of essential oil
  • A pan of hot water
Step 1
Add all the butters into a bowl 

Step 2
Put the bowl in the pan to heat (10-15 minutes) until liquid

Step 3
Add 5ml Almond oil and stir

Step 4
Add essential oil (10 drops)

Step 5
Pour into the Jar and let it set in the fridge

Once set, the body butter is ready to use

This body butter is rich so don't use too much in one place. Nice to use after bath or shower.

Revlon Summer Nail polishes!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Hope everyone had a lovely christmas. I haven't done a post in a while, so I will be updating soon.

This is going to be a quick post....

Just wanted to tell you about these two gorgeous nail polishes I have fell in love with. Even though they are Summer colours and Summer is not even close to us. I had to still share them with you. These are the perfect Summer colours if your looking for that.

Revlon Nail polish - One perfect Coral - This is so beautiful, even though its not even Summer yet. I decided to put this colour on. To be honest it looks like a gel red colour. Its just so pretty and has got me in the mood - ready for Summer!








Revlon Nail polish - Mad about Mango - This is a pretty pale orange colour. Perfect for the Summer. I suppose its like a salmon colour. This is a scented nail polish as well, let it dry first though.















So even though its No where near Summer I had to share these colours with you (least your be ready for the Summer :) )
