What Mascara do you use?!?!?!

Hello my cute lil peanuts! Hope you guys have had a blast to the new year! I sure have :)

So today I'm gonna tell you guys what mascaras I've been using through my lifetime (cause I'm a granny aren't I -_-?). I get asked a lot what mascaras I use and I don't want to sound like a big head AT ALL lol but for my lashes the mascara doesn't really matter because I naturally have long lashes.  The only thing I see a difference in is the texture and thickness when I use different ones, so this is what I look at when it comes to buying mascaras.

At the moment I'm using Maybelline Colossol Cat Eyes Mascara 

My eyelashes have a natural curl to them, but this mascara defo gives them that extra lift.

Positives:

• Lengthens lashes by x3
• Curls your lashes
• Separates them to look naturally long
• Doesn't clump eyelashes
• Eyelashes feel soft 

Negatives:

• Doesn't thicken eyelashes as much (I apply a few layers I do! :P)
• Does finish quick :( 

In these two pictures I have different mascaras on. Can you tell the difference? 

Like I said the only things I look at for mascaras is whether they will make my lashes look thicker, so here's a list of ones which have done a great job in curling lengthening and thickening. 

I do tend to stick to the same brand, so yeah  I use a lot of  Maybelline mascara.  But they do a great job!

This mascara was ok, not the best because it didn't really thicken my lashes as much as I wanted it to. I did stupidly buy it in a brown colour, so it didn't really get used much lol

Im in LOVE with this Rimmel mascara, it does such a great job! Really good for those nights out  where you want to have SCANDALEYES! ;)

This bad boy gave you SPIDERLASHES! But  it's really clumpy! what I like to do is  after applying, use a thinner mascara brush to remove the clumps.

Any questions you guys have feel free to ask! :) 

Pots of love!

Meech

Bleach or no Bleach...that is the question.

As we all know I like to be rather 'creative' with my hair...in this post I will take you through my journey of hair colours and cuts in the past few months. (yes past few months! I get bored -__-)

So it all started about a year ago, BEFORE Rihanna decided to go red, I tried to convince my friends to all go red with me, and I mean bright red, I almost had it until Rihanna ruined it all!! (I STILL LOVE HER THO) Basically the whole world decided to do the same, and hell no was I going to follow that crowd! So I waited...

The first major change I did to my hair was the famous 'dip dye' as I always liked to dye my natural dark hair black, this was a very hard job. My poor hair had to go through A LOT of bleach. But before that heres where it started.

This is me, long thick dark hair...

This look I was always rocking and kinda got bored...

First session of D.I.Y 'ing my own hair.

                      

I didn't really get many photos with the dip dyed hair. Think its cause it didn't last so long lol, cause the next stop was what your about to see...



I was left alone with a few more packs of bleach and this is what happened lol...

As you can see the bottom I left dip dyed, but honestly I have no idea what possessed me to bleach the sides cause this is what it looked like if I tied my hair up... NUTJOB




Don't know how I'm sharing this picture with the world! #CRINGE



Obviously this didn't last, especially not when I looked like a complete idiot!... So I thought hey! It's been a year since Rihanna was last seen red, and now shes gone brown, less people are red, why don't I go red?!! Yes I did it. And yes it went wrong again. It kinda turned into something that should have NEVER happened, it only took a single picture for me to realise what a big mistake it was, and this is the picture...

MY HAIR IS ORANGE.

Yes the dip dyed part became orange and the rest of the hair which I bleached and then added the red, only slightly took the colour. This look was the biggest downfall and I was absolutely embarrassed of my life! LOLS

So I decided to go back to black... the top half of my hair I dyed black and the bottom I bleached yet again *I know shoot me now* and then I left a bit of purple dye on it for literally 10 seconds, this is the look I came with and was quite happy in the end.

The lilac under the jet black looked cool as f***, I absolutely loved it, best thing I did myself LOL, everyone was like 'Oh wow your hair's so cool!' But yes being Mitra's hair something HAD to go wrong, the bottoms which had been bleached had now started to break really really badly and the colour started fading. So of course me being me, I had to make yet another drastic change. Few phone calls later I decided my lovely locks will be chopped off! How short was I going to go, I did not know, that I was going to decide at the hair dressers. So the day I made my way to the salon, I didn't tell anyone, BUT I bumped into lovely Jade at the bus stop (I know what a coincidence?!) No seriously it actually wasn't planned. So she came along and gave me a little support, I was crying the whole journey there! LOL JK! As the hairdresser was about to chop away I screamed 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!' and she stopped and said if your going to cut your hair you may as well make it look different, you don't want to pay for something you cant even notice yourself, Jade agreed with her and so I let her do her thannggg. It took a while for me to get used to but boyyyy was I not liking it! Strangely everyone loved it :/ here it is...

This look was probably the look that lasted the longest, it was easy to control and didn't need much time used on it, but (yes another but) I couldn't do much with it apart from straighten it, and the black was washing out and it all got really boring for me, so I decided to change the colour one more time! I've always wanted to be bright red for a very long time, and now that my hair had got really short I thought it really was time. But one thing I'll tell all you girls and guys, if you are not a qualified hair dresser then please don't attempt to dye your own hair a really bright colour, especially not if you have dyed your hair black before. It will come out wrong TRUST ME, and loads of bleach is so bad for your hair SO SO BAD. Anyway I did go back to my salon and told them I want to go red, it took almost six hours for the colour to come out right, and this is because of the black.

Yes I get weird looks from the older generation but everyone else seems to love it (mother gave me the dirtiest look of life though LOL) And this colour I will be staying for a while :) only because I really need my hair to chill for a bit. It really is breaking due to all the bleach but I'm taking loads and loads of care of it!

So there you go folks! My time of hair dying and cutting! Remember take good care of your hair because once its got too much in it then there's no going back, your hair is precious! Stay away from bleach its evetyone's enemy!!

Here are a few pictures at random times to actually show you guys the drastic changes I went through!





Hope you guys enjoyed this! :D

Lots of love and hugs!!

Meechi baby!!

When I was 16...

Just gonna do my part of 'When I was 16..'

Ok so Jade said not to laugh at her pic. Guys, DON'T YOU DARE LAUGH AT MINE. LOL

Yes I had bushy eyebrows AND WHAT? lol

I would have definitely told myself...

•   "Girl who you think you are wit your jelled back hair?!!" so basically yeah, I did the whole hair up, tight slick back and literally looking like a peanut head.  It must have been 'IN' at the time :/

• Girls and boys stay away from coloured lenses, I'm not only wearing hazel in my left eye, but damn I got grey in my right!! It's not a good look and you really will mess up your eyes (I am now short sighted).

• Jade said she would have tried better at school, my god if I could go back, I would wake up that half hour earlier, take that extra time after lessons offered from teachers, go to homework clubs. I'd do it all if it meant that I could have gone to uni. Unfortunately I didn't get to go Uni and yes a lot of people say it's a waste of time blah blah blah.  But it's really not.  If you have the choice of doing better, then do it, you'll only thank yourself! Luckily I grew up and learned it the hard way, which made me realize what I've lost. So I kicked myself in the back side and got me a good job, something related to what I've always wanted to do. Now I grab onto any thing that comes my way, whereas before I literally got it on a plate and didn't want it.

• And I defo agree with Jadey cakes! Be a child for as long as you can!!! You will definitely miss it, even if you're aged 16-19 BE WHO YOU ARE, cause only you can make YOU. Girlies, as time goes on we change in many ways, you will eventually have less spots, and those EYEBROWS lol will be waxed into a beautiful shape, and most of all, don't think of make up as something to cover your actual self with, make up is a girls best friend, use it in anyway you want! Wear as much as you like or as less as you like, but one tip, don't make it obvious! :p But in the meantime if you can pull it off, go el'naturel!

• Last but not least stay close to your friends and family. As years go by you will find new friends and lose old ones (luckily me n JB are still going strong for almost 10yrs :O!!) I would have told 16 yr old me to be my mums best friend for sure, cause if you grow up without that relationship it's quite hard to make it happen later on. ALWAYS be the best you can, YOLO!!! (you only live once) as Jessie J say's..."Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars! Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing, it's ok not to be ok. Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart. Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising, just be true to who you are!'

lots of love and kisses MEECH!!
