WEIGHT RESTART: Week 1 Day 1

Hey beautiful! How you doing today?

Yes, we are back to my weight loss diaries! Finally! Good to be back! I have been away due to being with the boyfie and things, and last week I was just not feeling the blogging vibe, but I have weighed myself today and feeling good!

So lets start off with some facts and measurements! I know its been over a month since my last weigh in, but don't expect a massive difference, as I pig out when with the boyfriend, and also, I have had lots of take away chinese and general bad food in the past month!!

Weight:

13 stone 10 3/4 pounds/87.4 kilograms. That's a loss of 2 pounds/1 kilo! It's not much but I am super impressed and happy I haven't PUT ON weight to be honest! Considering I have had three chinese take aways in three weeks, I think not being over my last weigh in is impressive haha! If I hadn't had them, imagine how much more I would of lost!

Measurements: 

  • Bust: 36 inches/91.4 cms ~ 1 inch/2.6 cms off! Whoop!
  • Waist: 32 inches/81 cms ~ 1 inch/3 cms off here too! Tiny waist here I come ;)
  • Hips: 46.5 inches/118 cms ~ 1.5 inches/6 cms off WOW, that is a bit of an impressive trim for me!


Exercise:
  
  Not really any today, just a bit of walking to my friends house!

Food:

~ Skinny Sprinkles
~ Cranberry juice, whole meal toast, vitalite and honey
~ Green tea with lemon + sugar (less than one tea spoon)
~ Home made ginger biscuit
~ Quorn ham slice sarnie and muller rice strawberry
~ Coco Pops + sweets

The last bit was because I was at my friends and she gave me coco pops for dinner haha!! I didn't mind, nom nom nom!

So, lets get back on track with the weight loss! Have you been losing weight recently? Got any tips or hints I can use and share with other readers? Let me know!!

STAY BEAUTIFUL

Mini Haul! MUA Post!

Hey guys! Just a quick mini haul, as the postman delivered my MUA goodies today :D


I took advantage of the offer that MUA were doing where you could buy two of their Eyeshadow Trios for £4 (RRP £2.50) and you get a nail crackle free! I went for the Broken Arrow nail crackle and Eden and Blue Babe for the Trios, as I already have Passion and I am always super impressed with it!

Eden
Eden is a lovely greeny set, with a golden sheen to it

Blue Babe
Blue Babe has some really popping blues on it and the white colour has a gold sheen, where as the blues are more silvery

Broken Arrow
Broken Arrow is a rich purple with a slight shimmer too it, can't wait to try this!

Swatches and reviews will come soon!!

Have you tried any of these?

The Boyfriend Does Henna! PHOTO HEAVY

Hey every body! The other week, when I was visiting the boyf, he decided to change his hair from Henna dyed ginger, to dark again. Here is a photo blog of the process!!

BEFORE PHOTOS



He bought LUSH's Caca Noir Henna to turn his hair back into a darker colour! Henna looks like so much fun to work with, but very messy business ;) Let's start shall we!

STEP ONE ~ Pop into a bowl. Add hot water!


STEP TWO ~ MIX, MIX MY PRETTIES, MIX



Mix until it looks like this lovely gloop



STEP THREE ~ Pop on a baine marie and heat until hot, but not burning, otherwise you will burn your head!



Touch test!


STEP FOUR ~ Apply to head, making sure your hair is fully covered all over!


Remember dem gloves



STEP FIVE ~ Wait! You can either let it air dry, or do what boyfie did and wrap it in a plastic bag at first, heat, leave covered for an hour, then let hair dry for 3-4 hours!





STEP SIX ~ Thoroughly wash off and leave to dry and see your new hair colour! NOTE: Henna does develop over time, so you will see it changing colour to darker/more vibrant over a few days

Finished colour!
No more ginger! Woo!!

Have you tried Henna dyes?

STAY BEAUTIFUL

July Favourites!

Hellooo! I thought I would do a July Favourites, since I have seen them about but I have never done a monthly favourites post! This will probably be shorter than most, and I will be using stock photos as my camera is currently lacking battery and my charger is at home, but hopefully you will still enjoy it!


Angels on Bare Skin...this is definitely something sent from Heaven!! Since I was a teenager, I have used Clearasil. Yes, Clearasil. I know I know. I thought it was good for me and my skin! Turns out, I was oh so wrong. Since using Angels, my skin has improved so much, with hardly any more break outs apart from hormonal monthly ones and a reduction in my oily face!



I switch between this and Catastrophe Cosmetic, but over summer I prefer this as my face becomes oilier during summer and this clears it right up, and even helps with the monthly hormonal break out!! I am suffering that time right now, and I have one tiniest of spots on my chin and that's it! This face mask is brilliant <3


I am a sucker for lovely smelling hair, and boy does this do the job. I think I lacked the money for a while, to buy this, so I went back to cheap hair stuff, but now I work, I can buy as much as this as I want and my hair smells AWESOME for a few days! It lasts aaaaaaaaages, and it makes my hair super soft!


I must say, I am in love with this. I've had it for ages, but I always forget about it till I wear it again and then I am like I LOVE YOU BBY NEVER LEAVE ME. I love it so much I have just ordered two more colours off the website. These are just so easy to make a lovely look on your eyes, so quick too! I wish they would make them in more colour combos!

That's it for my July favourites! What have been your favourite things to use this July? Have you tried any of these things? Drop me a comment!

STAY BEAUTIFUL
