The Hills Drama!!


So, I attempted to keep my mouth shut for sooo long and I've come to the conclusion it's really not going to work out. This episode was just too good. Crazy girls everywhere! Let's start from the very beginning with Heidi aka crazy girl #1...Oh, Heidi...you sweet stupid girl. Sweetheart, you really need to learn...if you are going to go through your man's phone to read his texts, at least have the sense to not delete them! I mean, don't you want to know if he is going to respond before you go wild?! Maybe, Spencer was going to behave.....haha, negative..he would have gone to H.Wood behind your back and creeped around with Stacie "the bartender". I love how she goes to H.Wood just to see if he would be there with her...well, honey..he probably would have if he had gotten the text inviting him to go...So what the hell are you doing going?! Clearly she wanted to get up in Stacie's face. Side note, is it just me, or do Stacie's friends look a lot like her?Am I the only one who finds that a little odd? Anyway back to Heidi and Spencer, why are these two still going to therapy? Isn't this a sign that maybe they shouldn't be together? That being said, I don't really want them to stop going, because they are just so entertaining! It's like watching 5 year olds fight. I have to love Heidi for trying to justify her stalker-ish ways though. Heidi, the therapist is never going to agree that going through Spencer's phone was cool, but I am sure your girlfriends aka Stephanie and your sister will agree that you weren't out of line. Save yourself some money and talk to them instead. Spencer can go discuss his relationship issues with Charlie, who, by the way, looks like he's pushing 40.

Moving on from one dysfunctional relationship to the next...Brody and Jayde aka crazy girl #2. So, if you watched the last episode, you know that in Hawaii, Audrina "slept" in Brody's bed. Now all 10 of us watching over the age of 12 know exactly what happened here but I'm gonna play Nancy Drew for just a moment. Now what I'd like to know is if she just "slept" in Brody's bed, why would he have told his friend that he cheated on his girlfriend the very next day. Obviously something isn't adding up here. Now fast forward to my favourite hot mess, Jayde, oh and did I mention she's angry. Now Jayde hates Audrina and Audrina being that special little girl that she is, isn't exactly the brightest of lightbulbs so she decides to make an appearance at a little house gathering. Now this being the first time that Jayde and Audrina are together, after the whole "sleeping" incident, obviously this doesn't go well. Jayde flies off the handle with the help of her playmate posse(what a surprise) and all hell breaks loose. But really what was she expecting? Audrina pretty much provoked the entire thing by blowing kisses at Brody upon her arrival. Seriously Audrina? a bit of a stupid move, no? Anyway after the altercation, Jayde decides to drown her sorrows by taking a giant swig out of a Jager bottle. Classy. And what is this with the Jager everywhere it's like these girls should have it on an IV drip. Moving on to the club. Again, another altercation takes place and immediately Jayde reaches for old faithful. You little lush. Now the real victim in all this in my eyes is Brody because lest face it, he's the one who has to clean up that Hot Mess. I almost actually felt bad for him this episode, until ofcourse he went on his little date and started whining to Lauren about how Audrina only "slept" in his bed. Riiiiiiight...(insert collective eyeroll here) Seriously Brody if you're going to lie to us at least put some effort in.

Now before getting to my to my last point..one more thing...Stephanie...please don't ever use the word gnarly again....EVER!...honestly....we can barely tolerate you without the adlibs

Ok so to tie this into the theme of my blog. As per usual, I have a problem with Lauren's face. Specifically, what was going on in the lip area...No, the red lipstick did not make an appearance this time...infact it was far worse...there was nothing..NOTHING.. on her lips....you could have struck a match off them they were so dry... and of all things dry lips?!
Honey, you are on television... that's inexcusable...seriously...do something...don't make me tell you again...
ok..
i'm done...
for now

The Hartburn Hotel





This was a blast!!!! It was my first production as far as makeup was concerned and I learned a LOT!!!! I have some more tutorials coming...I am just waiting for life to slow down just a little bit =).

Top Mascara - Maybelline Lash Stiletto


Definitely one of the hottest products on the market right now is Maybelline's Lash Stiletto Mascara & as the name describes, it gives you stiletto height to your lashes! The grip brush grasps & coats each lash from all angles while it's elastic formula lengthens for a dramatic finish. It also contains Pro-Vitamin B5 to condition & smooth the lashes to give a black patent shine to complete the striking finish! So far the feedback seems to be all good, great packaging that makes it fit neatly into your bag, the applicator is thin & easy to use, only small thing is in order to get the effect they boast you may need two or three coats, however you can do so with no clumping so no real problems there! Also a penny pinching favourite at under £8!

Hot Topic This Week - The Rise of The 'Pillow Face'!


'The Rise of The Pillow Face' has been a popular talking point this week & I don't think we could find a better term for the new celebrity phenomena that has been sweeping the red carpets of late! Linda Evans snagging the Hells Kitchen trophy this week sparked quite a few remarks on her 'pillow' like cheeks at the 'tender' age of 65, clear give away signs of the new popular non-invasive cosmetic surgery...!!! Increasing numbers of A-listers are requesting the new sought after 'plumped' look, as opposed to the 'wind tunnel' face lift or the 'frozen' & 'shiny' Botox looks that have been all the rage over the last decade.. As we age & our skin looses not only it's elasticity but it's fullness & volume as well, which no amount of botox can bring back & that's where the magic 'Fillers' come in to play, with one simple injection all your youth can come flooding back....or does it!!?? Some may disagree & instead say all we see is unnatural puffed out cheeks & swollen lips!
The most popular fillers are Restylane, Voluma & Radiese & now a new more controversial product called Sculptra which was developed for AIDS patients whose faces would sink around the skill after treatment.
Below are a few other clear candidates for the Pillowface age, some food for thought on how we would like to see ourselves in the next 10 or even 20 years perhaps!!!?? -







Get Jennifer Aniston's Look!

I love this look and Jennifer Aniston does it best. Thanks to Total Beauty I can share the steps to getting this fabulous hairstyle.
To get this look apply a texturizing product and roughly blow dry your hair to add texture to it. Tease the crown of your head then secure hair into a mid-height ponytail. Tease hair in the ponytail for added texture. Pull out face-framing sections of hair and use a flat iron to straighten them, creating a slight bend at the ends.

Quick and easy! Love it!

PS. Happy Friday!!!!
