Love Me Beauty - Edition 3

I skipped the June edition of the Love Me Beauty box and thought twice before deciding to order for July. I already have so many cosmetic and beauty products and I don't know if I would ever end up using them all. I've mentioned it previously but what I really like about Love Me Beauty is that you can pick from 3 different menus, choosing what suits you best. When I saw this months brands and offers, I just couldn't resist!

I chose Edition 3.


 

Inside there were 6 products, 5 of them full size. 



Lashem Lash Enhancing Serum - RRP £40 (3.5ml), mine is a sample size 2ml.

I have been thinking of getting a eyelash serum for a while but as they are quite expensive I didn't want to buy anything before actually trying the product out first. That is why beauty box samples are so useful! This lash enhancing serum nourishes and conditions. The result is longer looking lashes within 2 weeks. A thin line of serum applied on a clean skin to the base of your eyelashes in one continuous stroke. It should be used only once a day, as the serums long lasting ingredients keep working long after applying. 


OFRA Pressed Eye Shadow in 'Gold Rush' - RRP £8.80, full size product 

This eye shadow is one of the colours from OFRA's 'Diamonds are Forever' palette collection. It has a nice shimmer colour, which makes eyes sparkle like diamonds!



OFRA Eyeliner in 'Black' - RRP £7.60

A water resistant pencil, which can be used on the upper and lower lash line. This pencil is suitable for the most sensitive eye area. It is also very creamy and can be smudged for the perfect smoky eye. With a synthetic beeswax base, this eyeliner is smooth and soft with a long lasting application. 


 

So Susan Flutter Mascara - RRP £14.95

This mascara is new to the So Susan line. I have been very happy with their products so far and am very excited to try out this mascara. I am very funny with mascaras and so far I have preferred Max Factor over anything else. As I opened it, I noticed that the brush is a bit too short and small for my lashes. The general, small brushes are best for short lashes. I was also expecting more thick bristles to help separate lashes and achieve volume. I prefer thick bristles as they can get close to the eyes and grab each and every little lash easily. Well, I will still give it a try!





So Susan Dual Brow Powder - RRP £11.95

This smudge-proof dual-shade compact brow powder is infused with Aloe Extract and Carrot Seed Oil and perfect for a sensitive skin around the eyes. I have already used it on my brows and for the first time I think I didn't do too badly. I need to practise though, as I mainly use a eyebrow pencil and powder made my brows look much more thicker. 





The Teashed Skinny Tea 20-whole leaf green tea silky pyramid teabags - £3.50

This is a packet of 20 green tea bags which are renowned for boosting metabolism. The card included says that the whole leaves used inside the pyramid silky bags give a rich rounded flavour and they do not have that bitter taste like many other green teas, which are made from the 'dust' of tea leaves. I do not believe in any kind of skinny-mini-me teas or tea detoxes or restricted diets, so I am not going to expect anything else to happen other than having a nice warm brew!


Overall I am very pleased with the box and as it is worth around £60 all together, I am extremely happy I paid only £10 + postage & packing!

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

10 things to do in Rockhampton

I have still a couple more posts coming up about my Australian trip. I hope they are an interesting read! After Brisbane , we flew to Tristan's hometown Rockhampton where we spent the remaining 2 weeks of our holiday. Rockhampton is a small city in Queensland with a population of around 62,000 people. Rockhampton experiences over 300 days of sunshine each year, which means it is a good place for tourism and outdoor activities. Known as the "Beef Capital of Australia" there is much more to do than just sit in the pub and eat burgers! I have made a list of 10 things you can do around Rockhampton. 1. Rockhampton Kershaw Botanical Gardens are a well visited attraction in Rockhampton. The park has many paved walking paths, rest areas, drinking fountains and beautiful scenery with many palms and tropical flowers.   2. Quay Street in Rockhampton is full of beautiful architecture and old buildings. The city centre (main street) is not very big but I think we spent at ...
