My First Glossy Box - Feb

Okay, so this is my 1st glossy box. I heard about this from my great friend Philippa (www.pippablah.blogspot.co.uk) and I thought I'll give it ago.
When it came, I was super excited it was here. Opened the packaging to this pretty box. (Above). I must add the box it's a good box, nice a strong to keep my bits and bobs in. I then took the lid off, to just delightful wrapping with a ribbon bow. Here's what I got:

mememe Fat cat Mascara
Vouez-vous warming body oil, im Mohito flavour
A sample of Narciso Rodriguez
Micabella mineral blusher sample in shade Slera Suede
Helen E moisture lipstick in Caribbean
AND A HEART LOLLY!
Well, I was in love! You also get a little booklet/fold out poster with tips and where you can buy the products you received. So much for just £10! (+pp). I haven't had the chance to try the mascara or body oil yet, as soon as I have I shall tell you all.
First review, the lolly was super yummy.

I thought the blusher wouldn't be my shade as I prefer a more pinky colour. But it's amazing. The picture >> doesn't reflect the true colour and sparkles! I would buy this again and again (if I didn't have a student allowance). <3


please ignore my vainy hands


I really want to get into wearing lipstick, but never had the confidence to do it. Well I can with this one. It's a beautiful colour, and has an amazing shine!















I can't wait until March's box
Well that's all for now, back to dissertation work.
Take care
Love Abbie

HasFit Workout

HasFit Workout
 
 
 
I am currently trying anything to keep fit, without going to the gym. I want to go and pay for the gym, but I hate going alone. And so my plan is now to loose some weight and then go the to the gym (as in my gym they are all MASSIVE MEN, and TINY WOMEN).
 
The boyfriend recently discovered HasFit on youtube.com. So we gave his video's a watch, and the guy is a tad crazy and like a machiene.
 
Then I gave it ago, and OMG I couldn't breathe, very hard work (should pay off). I should have relised it was an workout for advanced fit people (haha) but hey just means I push myself that little bit more :)
 
I keep you guys posted if it's working, but I recommend you check out his videos. He has 100's. On workouts, loosing weight, gaining weight, warming up and even dietry tips.
 
One quick note, the signs in his videos are awesome, for example "Sweat is just fat crying." and "Exercise is a pain in the ass, but it sure gives you a nice one!" I considering getting a t-shirt with one of these on :D

Graze Box


Graze Box
 
I recently signed up for Graze, they offered me a free box so I'll thought I would try it. When it came I was amazed, although it was smaller than I thought, it was super cute! Not only that but it was amazingly tasty!
 
Each box has it's own award for being such as high in fibre, under 110 Kcals, 1 of your 5-a-day, etc. Which when you read it, it just makes it even better.
 
I loved everything you got in your delivery, not just the food, but a little booklet welcoming you and explaing all the greatness about Graze and also a napkin.
 
Inside my box I got Billionaire's Shortbread :
 
 
Not a fan of cranberries after this. But the rest was b-e-a-utiful
 
Koren Chilli Rice Crackers:
Nice and spicy! YUM
 
Honeycomb Flapjack:
 
 
One Word: *mmmmm*
 
Lightly Roasted Pistachios:


Because you can't beat a classic
 
I would recomend people sign up and get a FREE BOX. I have told everyone just have a try, you can cancel at any time!
 
Have a FREE BOX ON ME! :
 
 
Happy Snacking

Studded Nails


Black and Gold Studded Nail Art



 
I don't like the idea of having my whole nail covered in 'caviar' as I have seen some pictures of people using it, and for me it's a no. But searching through youtube I found this idea and gave it a go. 

And so here it is. It took a lot of time but I LOVE IT. Well worth the wait. It's right on trend of black and studs, plus I like the way it feels on my nails.

I will be honest though, it's the day after since I took this picture, and some have come off but nothing major. It just means I'll use a bit more glue next time.

I give it rating of 10/10.

Products used: 
Black Nail Varnish, Collection 2000
Nail Glue
Caviar, Ebay
Top Coat, Sally Hanson
