We're back...and we're bringing gin soaked beauty tips!

Hi everyone!

You'll have noticed that the blog has had a bit of a hiatus. So what's been going on?!

Well I've moved house, changed job and put on several pounds! 

But I miss writing about my random forays into the world of beauty so I thought it was time to resurrect the blog. So if you are wannabe beauty queen who likes to surf the net whilst stuffing creme eggs into her gob then you are in the right place!

Here is the day in pictures:

I ate...Salt and Pepper chicken. It's Friday, I wanted a treat, so I had one. Now my mouth is on fire because of the large amount of chilli in the dish.

I applied...Revlon Photoready Peefecting Primer £11.99 from Boots. 

Now I know it looks pink but I promise it doesn't look pink on application.

I've been using this primer for around the past 8 weeks. It can be used either alone or under makeup and evens out the skin creating a great base for foundation. Since I started using the primer I have found that I need less foundation, my t-zone doesn't tend to get as shiny and my skin looks more even. What's not to like?!

I admired...some new and shiny storage for my bathroom! In an attempt to become more organised (hide away the junk!) I have acquired this rather lovely wooden storage unit which fits the room perfectly. See www.therange.co.uk for similar!

My bum hurts...

No really, apparently it happens when you haven't been on a bike for years! I think frozen peas may be deployed!

It's been a good day diet wise, stuck to my high protein and although tempted to reach for the chocolate (hard day at work!) I have resisted thus far. One thing I must say is its really hard to grab food on the go, I went into looking for snack and a trip to the small Co-op next door landed me some prawns and dip, not entirely satisfying with a cup of tea!

Going to invest in the Hairy Dieters cookbook (thanks Alison!) and am considering a foray into the world of protein powder- any advice welcome on this subject. 

So here's the day in pictures:

I ate...lamb with Mediterranean vegetables which would have been better with a side of mashed potato. I managed to injure myself by dropping the phone on to the plate whilst taking the picture and spilling hot veg on my leg. 

I applied...Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain in Honey. Very well used, very much like a certain brand beginning with C, very very much cheaper.
