And today, WE HAVE A VIDEO!!!! It's been a while since I uploaded a makeup tutorial on YouTube, in fact, July 2013 was the last one, yikes!!!! Anyway, I plan on trying to film at least one more - this time with more of a focus on the eyes - if you have any requests on any products you'd like to see me use/demonstrate for the next video, just let me know in the comments below :)  Other than that, enjoy the video, and if you enjoy it, don't forget to give it a thumbs up!

What should I buy?

What should I spend my £60 on?

So, I've had my 2nd ever Google AdSense payout, a whole £60!!! Whoop! I had my last one about a year and a half ago, so takes a long time to build up! But after a long discussion with the hubby on whether it should go into our savings, or if I should 're-invest' it in the blog, he said I should spend it on makeup - well, not wanting to look a gift-horse in the mouth, and no needing any persuasion, I said 'ok!'.

Since that money was earned from you guys reading my blog (mostly earned through page-views, and the very rare click) I thought I'd ask for your suggestions on what makeup to spend it on.  I know I have my £15 a month high street challenge, which I'll still be doing - so this £60 is strictly for high-end makeup - so NARS, Chanel, Illamasqua, Urban Decay etc.

I guess what I'm asking is, what would you like to see reviewed? Please leave suggestions in the comments below :D

Lee Stafford Argan Oil - Nourishing Miracle Oil

Lee Stafford Argan Oil - Nourishing Miracle Oil
About 2-3 years ago, brands discovered argan oil and it started hitting our shelves in one form or another.  Now the dust has settled, some really great brands are beginning to emerge with their blends of argan oil - this is where Lee Stafford comes in.

The Lee Stafford Nourishing Miracle Oil is part of a series that's been released, embracing the goodness that's in argan oil.  In Lee Staffords offering, you get 50ml of product for £11.99* - it comes packaged in a box, and the bottled has a pump dispenser.  What I like about the dispenser is that for me (long hair) 1 pump gives me the perfect amount for my hair - so often these give too much (but never too little!) - and with something like this, less is more, since it's an oil!

Argan oil has great healing properties for hair, as it does for the skin, making it a great everyday treatment.  What I love about this is the feeling and finish it gives my hair, it's like... you know when you go to the salon, and after they've finished with your hair it feels lightweight and flyaway, but with a weight to it and bounce?  Well, it does that to my hair, makes it feel light, but with weight to it. It also smells really good - probably the best smelling argan oil I've tried.

Price-wise it compares to a lot of high street brands, maybe slightly more than some, but then in my opinion, it's nicer than your typical jump-on-the-bandwagon brands - this actually feels like it's a treatment for my hair and leaves it feeling lovely.  I can't speak about what the other Lee Stafford products are like in this range, as this is the first Lee Stafford product I've ever tried - but based on this I'll definitely be trying more - the shampoo & conditioner from this argan oil range is now firmly on my wishlist :)
