White frost

Hello! Oh gosh, where do I start? I haven't done a post for ages now (im a very bad blogger). Well to be honest I've not been able to find the time. So much has changed for me over these postless months but I can vow now I will be posting again. Why? Well I recently bought the new Samsung galaxy s4 to replace my old blackberry, it was actually through reading a review from another blogger that I thought about buying it. I have been desperate for a new phone for months now but there is so much choice, I didn't know where to start. But i saw the review after searching for info about the phone and thought I would just go for it. And wow! I can honestly say this phone, or rather amazing piece of technology, is perfect! And not to start any debate but I think it's better than the iphone, eek!

Curious?

Well here's my opinions on it...
Firstly I bought the s4 in white frost with 16 gb memory. But the great thing is you can add to the memory if you should need more.
Another brilliant feature, and one of the most important for me was the camera. I am into photography and like taking pictures where ever I go. And this camera is just amazing in all lighting and has various modes to suit your environment. The images I get are so crisp and clear even on video recording.  So I'm definitely going to use this camera for everything in my blog from now on, and maybe video's.

It has loads of other little features I like too; such as using motions and gestures to control it, it has a clever little thing too when you are on a webpage it senses when you are looking at it so if you look down the page will scroll down and vice versa, yay!

The touch screen was a big adjustment to get used to for me but I'm picking it up quickly, though texting was at first frustrating.
I am still figuring out a lot of things on it but it is easy and fun to explore. I think the best part is that I'll be able to update my blog on the go for the first time which is exciting. I have also downloaded other things like instagram which would have been useless on my old blackberry.
Speaking of instagram I need a cute name to register with would love to hear any thoughts.
But for now I'd definitely give the s4 5 stars, it may be expensive and I admit it is a lot more than I'd have liked to spend on a phone but it truly is a life companion. But if I have any issues with it I'll be sure to update.

Hope this helped anyone wondering about the s4 feel free to contact me if you want to know anything else, I'll help where I can :)

Bai for now!

They're Real

Hello beauts,
In my last post I showed a present I got as some false lashes. Truth is I'm awful at applying falsies and don't find them very comfortable. I will probably give them a try at some point though. Anyway I started using this mascara by Benefit and it's absolutely amazing! It really gives that false lash effect. Benefit are a cosmetics company which started in San Francisco. They are now hugely popular and loved here in the UK. I really like the Benefit makeup and have bought several products from them, one of my faves is their primer, POREfessional. But here are a few pics of the mascara after application:






Sorry I haven't taken any 'before pics' for comparison but believe me my lashes are sososo much longer (if you can't tell already!). I might use a bit less mascara next time as they started to look a bit spidery.

The mascara is called They're Real. You can get it from the official Benefit cosmetics website. I know it's also available from Boots and Debenhams, and is a little bit pricey at £18.50 (In comparison to mascara I have bought in the past). I bought from Debenhams after having tried it on by a makeup artist there. Overall this mascara is a good investment and is one of the best I have ever used. If you have tried it or have it, love it or hate it-
LEMME KNOW.

Hey beauts :*

Happy belated new year just want to share with you some things I got for Christmas :3. Unfortunately I am suffering severely from the January blues so can't day this will be the most detailed of posts, but might be long since I have to catch up on a bit - and yes I am aware it is nearly the end of January haha. Any way I had a lovely Christmas at my boyfriends mums house. She has a massive, stunning farmhouse surrounded by fields, which was helpful as there were a lot of us round that day, we even had take turns for Christmas dinner 'cause the table wasn't big enough for everyone to eat at one time! I only ended up eating around 7 pm having not eaten all day I was staaarving. Well worth the wait though :)

I also forgot mention she owns about 10 dogs, and one had just given birth to a few pups, but one nearly died and was so small compared to others. She wasn't getting any milk 'cause the other pups so she had to be hand fed. Luckily she's fine now and becoming bigger and healthy. ^_^



She is so cute and tiny right? :3



          As well as what I got up to at Christmas, just want to show you all a few presents I got too :)
So here they are:
Oh and I'm sorry some pictures haven't been rotated.











Every year I get a pair of jarmies, these are the comfiest yet! :p

GIANT PIG SLIPPER

  It's beautiful and very flattering on makes my waist looks smaller. I think the only con is that I find I need to pull it down a lot this might be because I've quite big hips, or I'm tall, which I'm not that tall or because the leggings I'm wearing with it but just note it is short, but this may not apply to shorter petite ladies :)


My boyfriend got me this for my watches, since they were just lying about all over the place, quite handy :3



This is a really good nail polish, it takes ages to chip and the colour is stunning. It can change from an olive greeny colour to a blue depending on how the light hits it. It is prominently green as that is the colour seen when the light hits it. That's my opinion any way and I would say a must buy :)


I also got these PS3 games as well as a Nintendo Wii, Wii Sports, Wii fit and a Resident Evil game. Plus I got Sims 3, Katy Perry Sweet Treats and Supernatural which are really good fun playing. So I will be a happy girly for a long time.

Oh, and to those to got snow in their area hope you enjoyed it ^^
Feels like Christmas came late!
