Best mascara ever?!?

Apologies for not having written a blog post in a long time...I am a terrible blogger. I'm going to try and write them more regularly from now on. Fingers crossed. 

I thought I would get back into the routine by telling you about an amazing product which I recently found by accident.


The waterproof mascara by Seventeen. I recently had to fly down to England in quite a rush and didn't want to pay all the extra on the budget airline I was flying with in order to get hold luggage. This meant that I didn't take a lot of luggage with me. I realise that with the cabin luggage liquid allowance, I probably could have bought lots of minis but 1. I didn't have a lot of time to find all of these cute little products and 2. I had never previously flown by myself and I didn't want to risk it. So, when I arrived I took a trip into Boots to stock up on essentials. However, I was staying in the countryside and this particular Boots was one of those ones that is just a basic pharmacy with a teeny make up display shoved in the corner. So I picked the cheapest mascara I could find (this was £4.69, perhaps the cheapest mascara I have ever owned!). A few weeks after I started using it, I realised I had infact picked up the 'Brown/Black' colour instead of my preferred 'Black' (I have actually done this quite a lot recently. LOOK AT THE SHADE BEFORE YOU BUY IT FIONA!) but I don't actually mind, because this mascara is amazing. I have wanted to try a waterproof mascara for a while as I was getting panda eyes throughout the day a lot, and this has most definitely solved this problem. I wonder why this happened before though? Is it all the rain in Glasgow or do I have really sweaty eyelids?!? It claims to lengthen, define and separate lashes, and I think it does all three very well. I think it makes me look like I am wearing natural false lashes all the time. And unlike other mascaras that I have used recently which have all cost me about £8.00 this doesn't clump at all on me. 
I would definitely recommend that you give this a wee try.

Gluten Free Review: Bodach's kitchen

Image
I've said this before but it's been a while. Lots has happened since my last post which I'll maybe do a wee update post about, but today I'm here to talk about where I went for lunch today. Living in Corona times the most exciting thing you can possibly do is go for a walk and get a takeaway lunch, and today was an exciting day. After a short walk around Kelvingrove park and down Byres Road we stopped at unassuming little hole in the wall with a long queue outside which is always a good sign. The queue went down quickly and there was some cute dogs in front of us (bonus!). The staff were absolutely lovely. When asking about gluten free options they offered to make me a sandwich from scratch but I instead went for the soup and some bread and butter (not toasted so looks like they always have some fresh bread ready to go). I also got a hot apple cider (not as sweet as I expected it to be but still delicious) and the last slice of gf millionaires shortbread!  My sister got

Fräulein 38 makeup brushes review

Image
   Apologies yet again for the lack of blog posts. I am the worst blogger ever. I try and stick to a schedule of uploading every Monday but sometimes life gets in the way. I bought the Fräulein 38 24 piece starter brushes set about 2 years ago. I don't even remember what I used before then but it was probably just a mixture of random brushes collected over the years. However, I ended up buying these as I was about to participate in an amateur production of 'Little Shop of Horrors' and knew that, judging on our past show where I ended up doing the majority of the male casts makeup, I would probably need more/new brushes. After searching about for a cheap brush set I came across these. I believe I bought them from Amazon or a similar retailer as I don't remember the brand having their own website at the time. Picture taken from the Fräulein 38 website as I am silly and decided to wash my brushes therefore they look all soggy and not very attractive just now.

Bath and Body Works-Mahogany Teakwood

Image
Unfortunately for all of us living in the UK, we do not have a Bath and Body Works store. (Or perhaps it's a good thing as if we did I would have no money but lots and lots of candles...)  So, when I was in the states I had to pick up a few wee goodies. I made a trip to the Westfield San Francisco and when I saw Bath and Bodyworks, I grabbed a basket and ran around like a small child in a sweetie store.  At the top of my list were these candles. I had heard that these smelt like Abercrombie Fierce (the lovely scent which you can smell when you walk into an Abercrombie and Fitch) and that is most certainly true. Unfortunately, the bigger candles were too heavy to bring home so I got the three minis instead.  I have started burning one, and it is lasting fairly well. Also, it is really easy to light. (For some reason it takes me many attempts to light some of my other candles.)  Walking into my room now fills me with great joy every time.  Love, Fi x
