How to spot if 'YOUR A MERMAID IN THE CITY' & 'DRESS LIKE ONE TOO'

HOW TO SPOT IF YOUR A MERMAID IN A CITY!

Sadly not all mermaid's can live by the sea...(Just mainly those lucky Australian girls you see on Insta with those perfect six packs, green smoothies for lunch,strawberries for breakfast being fed by their romantic surfer boyfriends and that perfect sunshine!) Help Me I can't cope with it...
but of course we all follow one or two... Our insta motivation on another pants grey weather day in London, Paris,New York or wherever you are................? 

So anyhow's how to spot if 'YOUR A MERMAID IN A CITY'?! 


(Answer these questions below 

and see if you find yourself going YES YES YES!)


1. You have dyed hair that's trying to be red like Ariel or maybe it's pink or blue or its gone a kinda 

weird brown colour where its been dyed so much!

2. People get sick of you moaning about summer...


3. All your wardrobe consists of Hot Pants and bikini's which you keep just in case you get that           ' Record Heatwave summer' that the radio presenter has been promising for the last 5 years.


4. You spend half your life stalking hot surfers Instagram's.


5. You've put lemon on your hair before because you have heard it goes blonder in the sun.


6. When your at peoples house's and you spend half your time sat on the nearest radiator.


7. You can't concentrate at work or school because your planning when is the quickest time you can earn enough money to leave your job and go on your next travelling trip...(another excuse to stalk instagram for *cough* places to go surfing!)


8. You don't brush your hair and its full of knots because you just don't see the point, I mean did Ariel brush her hair? I think not!


9. Your hair, getting to your waist is your ultimate life goal.


10. Your hair has gone green before because you spent so much time in the local swimming pool practing kicking with your legs together like a fish!


11. Water is the ultimate lifesaver, you can't drink enough of it and your paranoid of getting old if don't drink 2 litres a day.


12.  Being barefoot is how you spend as much time as possible and these days you can't even be bothered to wear heels out.


13. People sometimes describe you or your clothing as,"wacky,out there, bright, unusual," or use expressions like "Hmm wow, only you could get away that".


14. You response is usually, "your lucky I'm wearing clothes as i'd rather not be."


15. Right now, your dreaming of a white beach, drinking water out of a coconut, in a shell bra...



HOW TO DRESS LIKE A MERMAID IN A CITY!


I've included my favourite bits from www.adventurelanduk.com this week and how to add a bit of mermaidness to your outfit!



MERMAID HANDS AND ARMS

Our vintage Starfishy Bracelet and ring is a must and lets like its just been found on the ocean floor! £13 for the set


I have teamed them with our Under The Sea Stick On Jewels in Mermaid Aqua. You can get two sheets of these for £6.00. These really are gorgeous and you can cut,size and stick where you like. 



You will just need to peel off the front, use a wet cloth and stick down. Perfect for festivals or jazzing up your outfit for a night out.

Lastly, I am wearing our little Seahorse Rings to complete the look. Our deal at the moment is you can get 2 of them for £7.00.











MERMAID HAIR AND EARS

Hair is important when pretending we're mermaids and our cute Shell and Starfish sets which are only £4.50 set just the right spot! I teamed them with my disco Dolphin earrings which look not quite perfect as I only have my earrings pierced at the top but are so cute and sparkly £7.00. The whole look is completely with our mermlife leotard which is completely durable and can be worn on a night out out or doing sport or is even made so you can go swimming!
Hope you enjoyed my MERMBLOG and had a little giggle and now all have serious MERMMAIDVIBES!

Love and sparkles!
Lo XOXO

Guybrows and Winter Skin



GUYBROWS AND WINTER SKIN

So todays blog,I chose to write about two things that I like to think I know about and love! I love eyebrows and thanks to Cara everyone is loving them too!






1. How To Deal With Unruly Eyebrows.



This kit is from Collection and is 5.99 and honestly I think its awesome. I use the middle shade, the lighter brown but not the lightest shade.

I also discovered, Maybelline Brow Drama Sculpting Mascara which is pictured next to it. 4.99

http://www.boots.com

Honestly, if you have eyebrows and you wanna enhance them or you just want some eyebrow's, I can not recommend these products enough. I give 5/5 stars for both these products. I 100 % won't recommend any products in any of my blogs, I don't believe in and use myself.

SKIN TIPS


"Skin oh Skin,"... my favourite subject.. having had, pretty good skin through out my teenage years, yes  I was one of those annoying lucky ones... (although I was always seriously careful what I used on it) THEN 2 or 3 years ago ..BAM! Hormonal acne...! HELP!


In the last 12 months I've managed to combat this and now I'm not really having any breakouts apart from a couple, of spots at that horrible time of the month for us girls.

I really do feel, you have to make your skin good from the inside. For me personally,
St Johns Wart and Acidophilus tablets have saved my life and skin.....(yay no more moody slightly depressed Lo!!!)




You can grab St Johns Wart for 6.50 from Tesco http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=268307066

I also make sure I take acidophilus every day. Seriously full of good bacteria .... Provides 3 billion active cultures per capsule!!!!!  
http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-mega-potency-acidophilus-capsules-60001540 Its 11.99 and worth every penny.

Aside from this, I swear by green tea and green smoothies.


CLEANSE,MOISTURISER AND OIL ME UP!!!!



So every day, I start the day with my Boots Tea Tree Foaming Face Wash! I love it and notice if I don't use it for a few days I then start getting a few pimples pretty quick. 3.59  http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Tea-Tree-Witch-Hazel-Foaming-Face-Wash-150ml_1213604/






















I then use L'Oreal Intense moisturiser
http://www.boots.com/en/LOreal-Paris-Triple-Active-Nourish-Intense-Hydrating-Moisturiser-Dry-to-Very-Dry-Skin-50ml_1222356/        4.33














& three times a week,  I use this little star buy! I LOOOOOVE IT!  Trilogy ROSEHIP OIL 16.99 http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/trilogy-rosehip-oil-100-organic-60076391?c=triogy




And then twice a week I also use this.....Decleor Aroma Cleanse which is pictured next to it. 20.63 It's my investment product and seems to last forever. I've given the link to the place I found it for the cheapest to buy. (I LOVE seeing all my dead skin come off!) haha! http://www.allbeauty.com/productPaging.php?productId=6370&ref=%7Badtype%7D&utm_source=%7Badtype%7D&utm_medium=FREE&cm_mmc=%7Badtype%7D-_-Free-_-Listing-_-6370&currency=GBP&country=48&&gclid=CMPm0ZKrtMMCFQgcwwodeCEAQA



    WAKE UP AND MAKE UP DAT FACE!



On my skin if I'm going on a night out or going for lunch with the girls, I usually use BB CREAM (in Shade (Light/Clari)  9.99 http://www.boots.com/en/Garnier-BB-Cream-Skin-Perfector-For-Sensitive-Skin-Light-50ml_1277270/


Under the eyes...in the winter I've been using Maybelline Fit ME. 5.99 (My bags are much worse in winter and in summer I can't actually use this shade but while I'm so pale it's perfect!)  http://www.boots.com/en/Maybelline-Fit-Me-Concealer_1279343/

Every make up artist has these two in their kit....their 100 % must haves... I can't get enough of MAC SOFT AND GENTLE SKIN FINISH
 http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/products/spp/shaded.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT159&PRODUCT_ID=PROD30735&SKU_ID=SKU55526

And SLEEK CONTOUR KIT IN SHADE LIGHT  6.49
http://www.boots.com/en/Sleek-MakeUp-Face-Contour-Kit_1395740/
I usually use these two products together. I only use the bronzer out of the kit and mix it with soft and gentle!

Thats about it for this blog post, I enjoyed getting some vitamin D this morning in the garden to take these little shots! All products featured have the links to where to buy and are pictured. 
Let me know, if you find any of these little tips helpful and if you want me to write about anything in particular! I've got the next blog post lined up to be about WEEEERK OUT/FITNESS TIPS.
