Happy Christmas

Hi Dolls,


I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and A Peaceful and Happy New Year.

I am off to a lovely hotel for a few days not going out side Ireland just heading North:)

Whatever/Wherever you are this holiday season please take a minute to think/pray/help the less fortunate and homeless people. Even if it's given an extra €1 or two to the Charity buckets in town or to buy a homeless person a sandwich and a hot drink or just a simple prayer at dinner/bed time.

Every Little Helps :)

Weight Watchers

Hi Dolls,

I cant believe that I still haven't stuck to my weight watchers plan :(( I just don't have the willpower or the motivation to start it back up. I just don't know what is going on in my head. Some days I just cant even be bothered to eat health-ish food's and other days ill go all out, be so so good even drinking all my water. I just cant make up my mind. I'm sitting here and I know that I have to change for the good of my health its not healthy eating crap foods and sitting around all day then the next eating healthy and exercising , Its just mad. 

Starting tomorrow as soon I bring my son to school I'm going to go for an hour walk, have breakfast when I get back and after I collect my son at 12:30 I'm going to do the Wii Active 2 Game for about an hour at least I can have a shower without having to worry about the time and being late. 

The Active 2 game is very good you get the arm band with the monitor for your heart rate to see how much calories you are burning, leg strap to make sure you are doing the movements correctly and the resistance band to help you instead of using weights.

Along with doing the game and walking I really need to focus on my food intake I was looking up online that if you cut out 200-500 calories from your daily intake it can help you lose weight a tad bit faster. I'm going to try and cut out maybe 200 to see how I get on but I would cut out to many calories. I'm going to write out a meal plan for my weekly food and the calories intake also the exercise I will be doing and I'll post a it here to so everyone can take tips or tell me how where I'm going wrong on it :)

I haven't gained weight since I stopped going to my meeting but I'm going to go this Thursday and every Thursday after that till I reach my goal weight :)

Cute Christmas Ideas

Hi Dolls,

I have been sitting here wrecking my brain trying to figure out what to get my Nan and Aunt for Christmas. Its so hard to think of presents for people, I was writing down cute, fun, cheap, small gifts anything I could think of and I just thought that maybe a few of you might be having that problem to so here I am to help... Hopefully ha-ha 

A few things I was thing of were mainly small stocking filler type gifts and other ones were a tad bit bigger, Ill add some photos and a describe them a little bit down the post. I hop you all like what I have picked remember that I'm not telling anyone what to get this is just what I think is cute and would be a nice gift.

                      

You can never go wrong with a pair a Jammies get a cute pair from any where Dunne's, Penny's or any other clothes shop trow in a pair of slipper or a house coat to complete the set :)

For a little stocking filler way not get a DVD?!?! Pick any funny film and your sure to spread some cheer and laughter at Christmas:)

A good book is always a great idea for either a present to some one or just for their stocking filler:)

I love these Vaseline sets great gifts for teens or people who love lip products lovely cute stocking filler:)

Why not give these cute cupcake socks with the Vaseline set as a gift to a niece or cousin :)

For the girl who loves her nails why not get a cute fun nail care kit or even for some one who is trying to stop biting their nails!:)

For the make up fanatic why not get a make up gift set :)

If they are the type of person who isn't into that much you can never go wrong with a piece of jewelry :)

Perfume always works out great to try get a light scent or if you know what their fav one is get that :)

Most people now love cooking or baking why not get them a Cook Book Stand:)

They are just a few things I came across you can get most of them in any department store I hope this make it even a tiny bit easier for you to do your Christmas shopping :)

New Skin Care Routine....Yay

Hi Dolls,

I don't think that I have ever had a proper skin care routine I have either just used a fase wash and face cream or just face scrub and face cream I have never had the full care set. So I was out doing my weekly food shopping, I always either shop in Dunnes Stores or Aldi but this week I went into Tesco. While I was in their I seen a new brand well I think it is as I have never seen it before! I have pretty sensitive skin so I try to stay away for nearly all skin care brands as I am a bit scard that my skin my reacte to it, but I just thought that I might give it a go, you cant be afraid of everything all your life! To make it even easyer for me to buy it was that it was only €2 a product!! How Cool was that. They had 5 product I bought 4 and used them last night OMG!! I love it :)

I cant beleive for €2 how well this brand has worded for me I have spend a small fortune on skin care and to buy this brand by chance was just great. 

Skin Wisdom 

Creamy Facial Wash 

( you can also get the scrub )

Moisture Rich, Cleaning For Every Day Use

Gentle Cleansing Milk

Soothing, Conditioning Skin For Every Day Use

Refreshing Toner

Refreshing and Clarifying For EveryDay Use

Night Cream

Renewing and Replenshing Cream For EveryDay Use

So they were the new products that I bought If you dont know what way to use them all you need to do is :

                   Wash your face with the Face Wash ( Wash off )
                   Apply Cleansing Milk ( Remove with cotton ball )
                   Apply Toner with cotton pad 
                   Apply Night Cream

I add another two products to my skin care routine and they are

My Make-Up Bag

Hi Dolls,

I really don't know why I start my posts with ''Hi Dolls'' because I have never said it to any one! It so weird ha-ha. Anyways I was doing my make-up this morning and I decided that maybe I should do a post on what I carry around with me!

When I do my make-up in the mornings I never really touch it up maybe a small bit of concealer but that would be about it nothing else would bother me. I don't carry lots of make-up in my bag ill have like a concealer, mascara and a lip balm but that would be it. If I'm going somewhere over night or ill be out the whole day then ill bring a small make-up bag with a few little things that i might need.

The bag that i use is just a small bag from Penny's/Primark it cast me like €3 or €4.

The brushes don't have names or numbers on them 

got them as a present 

2 Lash Curlers 

Mac Concealer 

Hide Away Concealer 17

3-1 Cover It Concealer essence

Lip stain from Caprice 

Lipstick was a gift had a fancy 'G' on it!! Don't know the brand

Rimmel Flash Eyeliner black

Rimmel Day 2 Night Mascara black

Revlon Photo Ready Foundation

Inglot Eye shadow pallet browns 

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

No7 Blush

I'm sorry I cant go in to more details with most of the product but I have had a few of them a good while and the names and numbers have either worn off or have been taken off. I haven't noticed till now that i have a good bit of Rimmel Products, have to say it is a good brand and not very dear either its very affordable to:) 

I like my make-up to be natural I don't like to go over the top with things like with lip stick id just do the one light application the same goes for blush i like all my make-up to be light.

Damp!!!!

Hi Dolls,

I just wanted to give you a quick tip:

I have had a few leaks in my apartment one was in my bedroom which has caused a strong smell of damp to come from my wardrobe, beside the wardrobe and at my windows. I didn't know how to get rid of the smell so I went to my local hard-ware store and the lovely man behind the counter said that a cheap way to tackle damp smells or any other smells like that is to put a few drop of Pure Tea Tree to the area that smells.

I bought this bottle years ago for my Mam to use in her foot spa so I borrowed put a few drops under my wardrobe and by the windows and now my room smells lovely:) no more damp dirty smells.
