Red Wine

Hey loves,


I'm sorry my posts aren't a bit more interesting but my life is quite boring right now.  Things are quite tough for me at the moment, I'm exhausted from work and college, I'm stressing out and I'm feeling really anxious about finding a job when I leave my course.  I know everyone has these trials at some point throughout their life but I'm feeling the pressures now.  Most evenings are spent doing paperwork for my portfolio and making preparations for the next day, I know it doesn't sound like much but it is.  Don't get me wrong, I love what I'm doing, but sometimes I'd just love to spent the night curled up in my pajamas knowing there isn't a pile of work to be done.


I want this blog to be an honest representation of me and my life so that's why I'm telling you all this.  Right now I'm not living a glamourous life and I don't have the time to review products or do makeup looks like I wanted to but in the next few months when things calm down for me and I hopefully get a job then I'll be able to have my blog the way I want it to be.  I will always be honest and true to myself no matter what though, regardless of how great or tough my life is at the time.


Thanks for reading and I hope I didn't depress you :P


On a higher note, here's a picture I just took of myself.  Drinking red wine, looking like a scruff with no makeup on.

Haircare

Hey loves,


Going to start this post with something disgusting that happened to me today.  I was eating some almonds, as you do, and I bit into one to find DEAD BUGS AND EGGS!!!!!  How gross is that?  Needless to say I was disgusted and my stomach was completely turned.  I keep cringing at the thought that some of the other almonds I've eaten out of the same packet could be full of the same little creatures. Yuck.  Definitely will be writing a letter of complaint to the company.


But, as the title states, this post is about haircare.  Since November I've been using Hask Argon Oil in my hair after washing and before blow drying.  I've noticed a huge difference in the condition of my hair from using this product, it's much softer, shinier and easier to manage.  The other night I washed my hair and was in such a rush I forgot to use the argon oil but didn't think it'd be a huge deal.  Big mistake, my hair looked so frizzy and dry after blow drying and I didn't get the same finish I usually do.  At least I know it really is working.  The good thing about this product is it doesn't weigh your hair down at all and my hair doesn't feel greasy like after using some serums.  I'm happy to say I'm now a dedicated fan to this miracle potion and will be using it until I find something better.  I buy my argon oil from Penneys and it's about two euro for an 18ml vial of it.  It's absolutely worth buying, I've gone through two vials since November and I have super long and think hair although I do only wash my hair two-three times a week.


Have any of you girls ever tried Hask Argon Oil?  Let me know what you think.

Love Is In The Air

Hey loves,


As you all know it's Valentines day tomorrow.  Usually I am very cynical about the whole ordeal and think it is a scam but this year has been quite different.  My amazing boyfriend took me for dinner and drinks last night and surprised me with staying the night in a gorgeous hotel in Dublin.  We had Valentines night last night because he'll be working tomorrow.  We went for food in Yamamori (MAJOR NOMZ) and had some crazy Japanese beer, was so so lovely.  After dinner he handed me the key to our hotel room, the sly dog.  Went for drinks in the hotel bar and then up to our room and he had prosecco waiting for me.  It was such a romantic evening and I can't imagine it having been spent any other way.  I guess I'm a convert, maybe it just takes the right person to change your mind about things.


This was our hotel room (picture from my AWFUL Blackberry)

I hope all my lovely followers and readers have a great day/night whatever you plan on doing.

Much love,

Lori
