Fish Pedicure

As excited as a fish... I am actually, not that I know fishes get excited, but in our local mall we have a fish pedicure spa opened called DR SpaFish- I want to try it, but need to be sure I can take the ticklish feeling. Fifteen minutes for £10 is not bad. I've heard it's enough to take those fishes nibbling your heels away, not literally, the dead skin I mean. It's already popular in countries like Morocco and Turkey, where people lay in a bath full of fishes. That sounds a little freaky. But as for the feet, I've heard that they turn out smooth and silky. The good thing about our spa is that the water filter moves around each time, so that when the next person sits and sinks their feet in, the water is fresh. Fish pedicure is also beneficial for Eczema and Parotitis. Why not try it out, there are many in London too.

Fragrance direct

I recently had the interest to buy a perfume, as the last one I had finished a few weeks ago. I wanted to own a 100ml perfume, so that I know it will last me a while and a scent that I love. My sister brought herself a perfume, so I felt like treating myself to one. I went online and on google search, I typed in CK's Eternity Moment, which came out after Eternity many years ago. I love the scent, it's floral, fresh and exotic. I've had it before but this time I wanted more. I went on to a site called fragrance direct, where they do perfumes at good prices. They even do cheap makeup, you should check it out.

Bohoo

Hello readers,

I am so excited that I am going on holiday in March to Marrakech because at last I'm getting to discover another place with lots of culture and history. The part I'm exicted about is what to wear, and I think maxi dresses or even casual, bolt print dresses will look good and be suitable for me. So, as I was browsing online, I decided to check the Bohoo website. I love the clothes they sell. I was checking through the sale items and I found a maxi dress which I really liked. It was only £10, isn't that a bargain? I've received it through the post and even tried it on. The style suits me and the material is good. It looks a little long but all I need is a pair of high sandals to get it right. So here it is...

Hi-tech foundation

I can't wait to try out Chanel's new Vitalumiere Aqua £31, which contains a radiance light diffusing complex, which leaves skin looking soft, like flattering lumious light. The best thing is that it's very blemish-friendly.

Coloured lashes

Ditch your black mascara for a coloured one as coloured mascaras are hot at the moment and they're a great way to make your eyes stand out with out having to wear eyeshadow. I'm loving Rimmel's extra super lash mascara in electric blue and I've also brought a purple one by Collection 2000. Also check out Topshop's mascara in Nettle, a teal green colour. Flash your lashes, ladies.

asos

Hey my lovely peeps,

Hope you all had a great new years! Hope this year brings us plenty of joy and success. Hope you had a great time shopping too. To be honest, I found the sales to be fairly rubbish, but that's because I was looking in my local town. If i had gone to London, maybe I would have found something, but I don't think I would able to take the rush- It would get to my head. Therefore, I would prefer shopping online, selecting what you like in the comfort of your own home. A must- see website to shop on is asos. They have a large variety and they have a 70 per cent sale going on. I have checked out some dresses, and they are beautiful and I'm finding it difficult to choose one, plus, I am a little fussy too. But anyways, make sure you check the asos sale out-It's well worth it :)

Foundation Review

Hi all,

Over the years, I have used several foundations. It's important for me to buy good quality makeup, as in my youth when I used the normal makeup range within Boots or Superdrug, I found that my skin lost its freshness and I was getting a lot of spots. Though some of those makeup ranges are pretty good, I prefer to buy expensive makeup. I don't care what I wear but my face has to look good. I have tried Clinique, Benefit, Estee Lauder, Georgio Armani, MAC and Nars, and maybe others which I can't recall. From all of these foundations, I would give Nars the award for the best foundation I have ever tried. It's the Sheer Matte one, an oil-free foundation which suited my skin perfectly. I had no skin problems using this and I would buy it again if i get the chance to go London, that is. This foundation did not look over the top-It gave the perfect coverage and made my skin look fresh too. Another makeup product I would recommend to anyone is Benefit's Hello Flawless, a cover-up, silky powder that glides on smoothly. It's good to get if you want a fine coverage without having to wear liquid foundation. Now, my aim is to try Iman's foundation next, who knows it may even beat Nars.

Belle D'opium

I've been wanting to write about this product in a while. It's the perfume by Yves Saint Laurent called Belle D'opium. I fell in love with it when I first tested it. It's one of the best perfumes I've ever smelt and I hope to own one very soon. The scent is seductively sweet and the bottle is rather nice, a purple and gold colour- giving that midnight look. It smells a little like 'Cinema', another past creation from Yves Saint Laurent. Can't wait to get hold of one. Have you tried it yet?

Low heels

Forget high heels or platforms because this season it's all about low heels, like kitten heels and slingbacks. And this trend is set to carry on in 2011. These low heels can be paired with knee-high socks in the winter or even stockings in the less colder months. Don't be afraid to go a few inches down, you will feel stylishly relaxed.

My latest bargain

Hello my lovely folks,

Sorry for the delay in blogging. I have been rather busy in the past few weeks and I've had family problems too but I promise you that I will never abandon my blog :)
Now, let me tell you about the product I purchased the other day and which was a bargain!
My sister told me about it, otherwise I would have never found out. It was a Christmas offer from M&S, where they were selling their 'open front ribbed oblong cardigan' for only £10. So I decided to head down to M&S to grab my very own. It was very hectic-those cardigans were selling like hot cakes! When it was my turn to be served, I told them my size and the colour I wanted. Black it was, but guess what... they were mostly sold out and only size 10 was left which my sister grabbed, fortunately or even unfortunately. Then I asked for a brown colour and yes, it was available. I was excited to try it on and as I did, I found it to be the perfect fitting. I rarely shop for clothes at M&S but I do find that their knitwear is rather nice, and not forgetting the brilliant quality. I'm glad to have purchased this, this season.
