She always has major big hair which am always envy-us of! She let me into a little secret she uses Samy fat hair "0 calories" hair products! I started with using the thicken spray on my hair before blow drying and I could really see a difference. My very fine hair had some volume! So I tried the thickening cream and this is he most amazing thing! I use this right in my roots before drying my hair every time and I get compliments on now done my hair was. SCORE! I use there hair spray too but this is too much for every day as it gives serious hold and mega height! Available at boots.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpYa6R_llwD9s_DqCkCrvLtbDBUPtfncuXVVfaBFjivjk6xTgRFqyBiE8DarR9UuT67ygBVgrdqc5BTfFW1-Tc8WjEJIeRZnsavaQXLyZSuW96UyvUNb-p8ubUPZ4JrLsk_CPL37EEJNc/s1600/samy-salon-systems-fat-hair-0-calories-thickening-hair-care-collection%257E398207.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpYa6R_llwD9s_DqCkCrvLtbDBUPtfncuXVVfaBFjivjk6xTgRFqyBiE8DarR9UuT67ygBVgrdqc5BTfFW1-Tc8WjEJIeRZnsavaQXLyZSuW96UyvUNb-p8ubUPZ4JrLsk_CPL37EEJNc/s400/samy-salon-systems-fat-hair-0-calories-thickening-hair-care-collection%257E398207.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628577708088088226" /></a><br /><br /><br />I bleach my hair, I am naturally a light ash brown but I have been blonde for as long as I remember with a few we changes every now and again. At the moment am a very bright white blonde and to keep it bright and white I use lo'real sliver shampoo every other day. This takes any yellow tones out of your hair leaving it almost grey white, Warning don't use this every day or you will end up with a blue rinse. This can be bought at sally's and is around 8 pounds.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDEkLAYuXU29OqbkKy1kUlcGS1DsuZ5EudZ6Dh5ULlYssaW0oAduHbal1qjzl1WIJGnIwwtrUA1kYB6aPMEHeembaxS93REMv2oGovjEnyJhVBH11RlrY2L90VGAF9rLbAZ0QusF4KFQ4/s1600/lse_ss_silver.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDEkLAYuXU29OqbkKy1kUlcGS1DsuZ5EudZ6Dh5ULlYssaW0oAduHbal1qjzl1WIJGnIwwtrUA1kYB6aPMEHeembaxS93REMv2oGovjEnyJhVBH11RlrY2L90VGAF9rLbAZ0QusF4KFQ4/s400/lse_ss_silver.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628577486437613506" /></a><br /><br />My hair hasn't been in the best condition so when my hairs wet I use RUSK deep shine oil, its a protective oil treatment that can be used on wet or dry hair. Its mostly argen oil which smooths cuticles and eliminates frizz.<br />It helps protect against damage caused by chemicals,thermal styling and the environment. It has really improved the condition and is my hair life saver!!<br />Available at sally's<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV57Ftjm-61Icu9lbIGLqhpNmjFXLUDxAf2s55v3rZ-7ISYkXxKNkbzZkqiafFqtETmhkt9L49TPe8rA4zMBWi_3EOTPKm0MWsixyMKnkT2LtavIu2HzQCIq0Q6qZSM8_boxz7G5UUI5w/s1600/rusk-deepshine-oil-treatment-278x278.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 278px; height: 278px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV57Ftjm-61Icu9lbIGLqhpNmjFXLUDxAf2s55v3rZ-7ISYkXxKNkbzZkqiafFqtETmhkt9L49TPe8rA4zMBWi_3EOTPKm0MWsixyMKnkT2LtavIu2HzQCIq0Q6qZSM8_boxz7G5UUI5w/s400/rusk-deepshine-oil-treatment-278x278.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628577864539638706" /></a><br /><br /><br />Fake tan -<br /><br />Beyond Bronze airbrush self tanner is my fave fake tan for my face. Its so easy to apply, 3 long strokes going the top of my face to the collar bone and your done! Easy! It has a real natural colour but dark enough to give you a golden look. It can be built up, if you like it really dark wait for it to dark in and apply again!<br />It 14 pounds and available at superdrug.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaZ16zc3bX8qSJyQZStdgsiJHbbYo8r99L_wPet1cF_OBRrS_9WTR8ElDShUoB3AHWcI0cj8r0cpHgsq27DnKh5qm3bTYfUGc7pzR7KrUWH1cL6jYRvTsAac2ewvbGrFPqDtjV2y-9W8s/s1600/org_Half-Price-Perfumes_2_2098192143_Half-Price-Perfumes-Fake-bake-beyond-bronze-airbrush-self-tan-210ml-.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaZ16zc3bX8qSJyQZStdgsiJHbbYo8r99L_wPet1cF_OBRrS_9WTR8ElDShUoB3AHWcI0cj8r0cpHgsq27DnKh5qm3bTYfUGc7pzR7KrUWH1cL6jYRvTsAac2ewvbGrFPqDtjV2y-9W8s/s400/org_Half-Price-Perfumes_2_2098192143_Half-Price-Perfumes-Fake-bake-beyond-bronze-airbrush-self-tan-210ml-.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628578060954701714" /></a><br /><br /><br />Cosmetics - <br />Tan Tint skinsheen bronzer stick from the MAC surf summer collection, a few months ago I mentioned I was after the Mac foundation stick but they were discontinued(come on MAC what you playing at) any way got over that when I found this.

They have two colours available hot pink and nude. I, of course chose the nude one. I opened it today and tried it! OMG! its almost identical to my beloved lipgelee jellybabe from MAC that they discontinued.(WHY WHY WHY!)<br /><br />Same colour, lovely vanilla smell though not as high shine as lipgelee but still very glossy. Its almost a lux tinted lip balm. As soon as I put it on I had to blog.<br /><br />These lipglosses are £9 normally and Marie Claire mag is £3.70 so its a bargin. Ciate is famed for there lux nail polishes, though i have never tried them.

How mad is that? Anyway they sent a cable so am back online old skool style.<br /><br />I have been so busy, I went away for my dermalogica training in Glasgow. It was 4 days training of full on skin care and I bloody loved it! It went into great detail about skin health which is there motto. We learned about all the products in depth and how to use these products to give the client maximum results.<br /><br />I have been using Dermalogica since I was 19, I was introduced by blogger <a href="http://mikaelasjetsetbeauty.blogspot.com/2011/01/dr-leslie-baumanns-travel-tips-plus.html">Mikaela </a> who was my muse for all things beauty. She introduced me to looking after you skin, make up (which I had never really used) and suncare! So I knew how to use the products and was aware of all the ranges they have.<br /><br />I decided to buy a few things while I was there as they were tax free so how could I not. I purchased the special cleansing gel - This is a soap free face wash which removes any grime, excess oil and make up without striping the natural oils and disturbing the skins natural PH balance. It does exactly that! I normally used essential cleansing solution this is great for dry skin like mine but I do prefer a face wash to a cream as I like the freshness washes give you. So i started using this the day I got it and I started to notice my skin was feeling very dry but I stuck at it and I have noticed the dryness has gone and my skin is clean and fresh and I have even gone days to work with no make up on and had complements on how nice my skin was! So if you prefer a wash to a cream like me this is up your street.It is suitable for all skin types and you can pick it up from professional salons or my fave site <a href="http://www.beautyflash.co.uk/">beautyflash</a>.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvACF8hQ-nw7WjgjeFJI6MfwapXryj80q1bxjGpnwhQfBrr-okKtAGhpNACMPvDF_scMaidQ0KGVBuFx46xGdW_UzkjHW4tYrojNNoSIC4PmW2ZCHzE1_Gfv3xjIJVXoqLF375NjMG1wo/s1600/3.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 126px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvACF8hQ-nw7WjgjeFJI6MfwapXryj80q1bxjGpnwhQfBrr-okKtAGhpNACMPvDF_scMaidQ0KGVBuFx46xGdW_UzkjHW4tYrojNNoSIC4PmW2ZCHzE1_Gfv3xjIJVXoqLF375NjMG1wo/s400/3.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626615522958651122" /></a><br /><br />I also bought skin smoothing moisturiser I have used intense moisture balance but found it too heavy even thought I have very dry skin. So i tried this - A medium-weight cream with soothing botanicals and antioxidant vitamins to maintain skin’s moisture balance while improving texture, helping to restore suppleness and tone. This didnt stand up to its claim so far, I am going to continue using it too see how it goes but I feel i need to use quite alot of it to feel like am truely moisturised, I cant stand feeling any tightness on my skin and am obsessed with moisturising. It also doesnt have sun factor in it so please if you use this use a SPF after using this. I will come back to this as I have only been using this for 2 weeks.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1op8GQA00VolRzpyNWARJMTjXPKZfNGkTqDEjg9hlr3GJtWmVHSRtm-8W1cJlVAAZRu8x9SiW_6fXKiRRyAHw0YZc-XPhApnNY4NVkfhPEzwM-aXdRJVvy2m9Z7KXW6DKOrxE8CYV7fo/s1600/15.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 196px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1op8GQA00VolRzpyNWARJMTjXPKZfNGkTqDEjg9hlr3GJtWmVHSRtm-8W1cJlVAAZRu8x9SiW_6fXKiRRyAHw0YZc-XPhApnNY4NVkfhPEzwM-aXdRJVvy2m9Z7KXW6DKOrxE8CYV7fo/s400/15.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626615698796877746" /></a><br /><br /><br />What your favourite dermalogica product?Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-44623415861565594622011-07-07T02:30:00.000-07:002011-07-07T02:50:14.016-07:00Dear 16 year old self.....I got sent this video by one of my regular readers and follow blogger <a href="http://networkedblogs.com/jZ7mh">Nerrissa </a>, she knows how passionate I am with sun care and protection.<br /><br />I will tell you a wee story, on Sunday it was 28 degrees in Edinburgh! Totally unheard of. So my boyfriend and I went to taste of Edinburgh food festival, the sun was shining and cider flowing. I had put my usual 50 plus sunblock on but my boyfriend who is Filipino and is dark skinned thinks he doesn't need any, how wrong is he?!?! His face by the end of the day was red and the next day peeling. I read him the riot act and he PROMISED he would wear sunscreen, I even bought him some.<br /><br />At the moment am using boots Soltan 50+ for the face and its really working well. Its very light doesn't leave my face looking white and chalky! At the moment boots have 2 for one on all there soltan range.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7swVSQSvWOFxro1fLVDh5Tjq1944ii8VoPdI-3zWV8lTOZsELoPZWAvakgEg73t-DKay3iPS9ZZ0b2RU74FoRwQ-8isxOTWCv0P4l2ewLheH3QxS243Utn-nAawgwf34Q9tjOe792ljM/s1600/soltan-boots-beauty-products-face-moisturising-suncare-cream-spf50-50ml.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 101px; height: 205px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7swVSQSvWOFxro1fLVDh5Tjq1944ii8VoPdI-3zWV8lTOZsELoPZWAvakgEg73t-DKay3iPS9ZZ0b2RU74FoRwQ-8isxOTWCv0P4l2ewLheH3QxS243Utn-nAawgwf34Q9tjOe792ljM/s400/soltan-boots-beauty-products-face-moisturising-suncare-cream-spf50-50ml.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626545261291801138" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_4jgUcxMezM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-448199756266290942011-06-03T08:19:00.000-07:002011-06-03T08:44:24.513-07:00The sun has got his hat on.....<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMajp8NQHBlGSSUSCXFiqS78zTcYL6u3TLn19gyjKzCIyB7uC_xZV6ZK4yXytJ7Yv_O9ymO4j9_YjAC7MJ6oj_cjK7t5iF6DI59QuMm7PVDfqRKwVFT6F7bTLRFQAw944QpLQTdnpLG_I/s1600/229458_10150171099982623_638797622_7169366_5477535_n.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMajp8NQHBlGSSUSCXFiqS78zTcYL6u3TLn19gyjKzCIyB7uC_xZV6ZK4yXytJ7Yv_O9ymO4j9_YjAC7MJ6oj_cjK7t5iF6DI59QuMm7PVDfqRKwVFT6F7bTLRFQAw944QpLQTdnpLG_I/s400/229458_10150171099982623_638797622_7169366_5477535_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614019818605148434" /></a><br />Hey guys, its a beautiful summers day here in Edinburgh and it 24 degrees! hot hot hot! More like it Scotland! Lets hope its stays.<div><br /></div><div>When the sun is out as Scots like we like to get our skin out and when you get your skin out you have to remember your sun factor even in the UK.</div><div><br /></div><div>An article was released early this week stating that we need to wear at least factor 30 to avoid nasty skin cancer and premature ageing!(eek!) This is even true on more duller days especially during the summer months as UV rays still penetrate the clouds exposing your skin to all those nasty bits that cause cancer and wrinkles.(eek!) I discussed this in my beauty class and many were shocked! My friend wears factor 50 everyday even in winter and many think she is in her early 20's when in fact she is in her late 30's! This shiz works. </div><div><br /></div><div>I wear at least a factor 30 every day, I have very pale skin that burns as soon as the sun pops his head around the clouds and also I am covered in lots of moles which makes me more prone to catch skin cancer. My papa (grandad) worked outside everyday of his life and contracted a melanoma in his 60's right on the top of his head. This is properly due to the fact he spent hours exposed to UV rays, with a history of skin cancer in my family you cant be too careful.</div><div><br /></div><div>So what can you use? Be careful as even though it may state that it has a SPF of 15 it may only be a 9.

My fave was vanilla secrets, they don't make it any more but when i ever smell something close to it, it reminds me of long summer days by the sea and chasing boys. *cringe* </div><div><br /></div><div>Well i started wearing impulse again as its not as strong as perfume so gives a gentle scent that won't over power my clients. We arent allowed to wear strong scents as scent is a powerful sense it can cause emotional distress to clients as they could be reminded of a sad or bad time. So impulse is my new handbag must have and getting a free gloss is a bonus!</div><div><br /></div><div>So lets see what they have on offer!</div><div><br /></div><div><ul><li>Very pink- this is impulses newest scent(pink grapefruit and vanilla notes), i like this one but I think its an old scent they had years ago as its very familiar, this comes with a pale pink colour. Its a very glassy baby pink and smells of strawberries. YUM</li><li>Tease- now i have not smelt this one but by the looks of it it looks fresh (it says zesty notes of pineapple and exotic woods) and to back this up this comes with a nude gloss.Love it!</li><li>Into glamour- this is my all time fave smell from impulse, it does exactly what it says on the tin. Its pure glamour! Its woody, honey and amber notes amazing! This has been paired with a clear gloss with a vanilla scent.</li></ul>They are available till next weekend and cost £3.00. A bargain! I plan to get all 3!</div>Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-90228910957327618252011-02-03T06:49:00.000-08:002011-02-03T07:27:41.989-08:00Obsession!Hi guys, Been super busy. I got a new job working in a bar so I can finally have my own money and stop having to ask my boyfriend for cash. Its going well but its pretty heavy going as well as college.<br /><br />I have been pretty down the last couple of weeks and feeling I cant cope. I put this down to the lack of control in my life. I live in my boyfriends parents house and most my stuff is packed away and has been for the last year and a half. I have been getting increasingly anxious and this brings around old habits I have to cope with these feeling.<br /><br />I suffer from OCD, this is a personality disorder that can pretty much take over your life and can make you and people around you miserable. It effects me in such away that I obsessively clean and re organise. When my cleaning and organising is disturbed or ruined I cant control the anxiety and pretty much break down in uncontrollable tears. <br /><br />It effects me deeper than just cleaning all the time it can effect how you act and in turn people can think your strange or awkward. It makes social situations hard and meeting new people a nightmare. My disorder is closely connected with avoidant.<br />I can find myself to be socially inept and often find myself avoiding interacting with other in fear that they are ridiculing, dislike, humiliating or just plain dislike me. The paranoia kills me and I even find myself feeling it with people I know and love. It can leave me unable to talk to close friends in fear they dont like what I say because of this I usually dont say anything or my mind goes into over load and I say things that dont even make sense.<br /><br />Another strand of this is being very dependant of others and this is why I am writting this. My current boyfriend is my rock and he has taken on so much with being with me when many men would have run a mile. (most have) <br />When these issues a raise and my mind decides it cant cope and am over come with emotion its hard to understand why someone is being so irrational, many dont. Rory is trying his best but now he is frustrated that he cant make me better. He believes I will never be happy no matter what situation am in, maybe he is right? I feel this has burdened me from my early teens and every so often it rears it controlling head and drags me under. <br /><br />This is a mental disorder, an illness. People laugh and make fun but to me, us as sufferers its very real. Seeing a dirty toilet or a large group of unknown people makes me heart race, my brain pounds and I want to scream and cry. <br /><br />Because this is controlling my life I see other things not as important so make up and living life have not been high on my list.<br /><br />I hope people get something out of reading this, please leave a comment for me. xGail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-82548530908316821042011-01-10T06:22:00.000-08:002011-01-10T06:48:29.328-08:00When i feel in love...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bsmSvZjfyxL9bBqqQLbqSd5BfKpRg1ZFgm5dD88_qheepzWxlTIODvgtFhVnfxAoNFvnS_tUww21KL46wefuae7-Kn_FcjcU0SNMCOBHaAT17z0q1FPxHC3R6juwZzc72Xhd2YhoAII/s1600/make-up-makro.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 375px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bsmSvZjfyxL9bBqqQLbqSd5BfKpRg1ZFgm5dD88_qheepzWxlTIODvgtFhVnfxAoNFvnS_tUww21KL46wefuae7-Kn_FcjcU0SNMCOBHaAT17z0q1FPxHC3R6juwZzc72Xhd2YhoAII/s400/make-up-makro.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560568694300955442" /></a><br />I have been thinking alot about my love for make up and where it stems from, My mum doesn't wear make up. So I thought long and hard and BAM! I remembered. Her name was Anna and she was renting a room in my house when I was about 6. She had a trade mark, bright red lips! Her hair was blonde just like mine and she had cute glasses and a flash of bright red lipstick! I love it. I used to sneek into her room and try on her lipstick and stare for hours in the mirror. It made me feel so grown up and beautiful. (I was a very over weight, extremely shy child)<br /> <br />We lived on a wee island and make up was hard to get your hands on, all there was was a tiny Rimmel stand in the local chemist and that's where I got my first red lipstick. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCa5jWr5Fb7mCzU8MAs8ywHlh7pEHtpYM5kaF2MAAdPhjChHLlLY_og4vwSQq4YfbWxLsUASbEbBOg8eq25JokPMepEcMUrCqPc9t9sySExmZkUXu-Ps1tYfOaP1eTALSNVvjEnZHfaVk/s1600/red-hot-lipstick-rimmel.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 290px; height: 290px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCa5jWr5Fb7mCzU8MAs8ywHlh7pEHtpYM5kaF2MAAdPhjChHLlLY_og4vwSQq4YfbWxLsUASbEbBOg8eq25JokPMepEcMUrCqPc9t9sySExmZkUXu-Ps1tYfOaP1eTALSNVvjEnZHfaVk/s400/red-hot-lipstick-rimmel.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560568792601347186" /></a><br />From that day on I experimented with different looks but never venturing outside, I didnt want to draw attention to myself. I saved pocket money to buy Rimmel make up or when we went to the main land I would buy BOOTS natural collection which was affordable for my small amount of pocket money. I got my first job when I was ten helping an old lady clean her chalet, I would get ten pounds for the days work and all that money would go to buying make up or perfume or impulse body sprays (lol)<br />When I headed into high school I wore basic make up everyday, it was a mask that made me feel normal again when I was going through that awkward teen years. I didnt always get it right, concealer too light and colours that didnt suit me. I would say by the time I was 19 thats when I got my first high end make up product, chanel cristalle gloss in 17.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiryRoNl4MoaUKE6Ozz1lwABuwNHpM_tuTwzhe8ZdoRprpCMtyCmZIXD2B2rSPEnx93nuuJNsYGsv987paRosoil_i2b6khZyb92AIuOf5kOCbsgj9xr6EOBocBBBKDsqvMp7tMwKnmXg4/s1600/chanel-cristalle-gloss-lip-gloss-5ml-0-17fl-oz-.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 159px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiryRoNl4MoaUKE6Ozz1lwABuwNHpM_tuTwzhe8ZdoRprpCMtyCmZIXD2B2rSPEnx93nuuJNsYGsv987paRosoil_i2b6khZyb92AIuOf5kOCbsgj9xr6EOBocBBBKDsqvMp7tMwKnmXg4/s400/chanel-cristalle-gloss-lip-gloss-5ml-0-17fl-oz-.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560569018419821538" /></a><br /> I loved it, I applied it 5 minutes.

I really dont know what the future hold for me and that bothers me. I thought I would have it all figured out or at least on the way to something great. I guess I am heading some where as I am following my dream as studying beauty but am not to sure where I want THIS to take me. My ideal job would be working for a magazine reviewing products and writing, maybe am not passionate about it as I think or I have had never been pushed to reach for new dreams (small town girl with small town parents perhaps?)<br />I was reading this months Marie Claire magazine and it had a section called "How do I get that job" and it was about beauty writing jobs!! and I did get excited! It gave me details on how girls got there jobs as beauty assistants , editors and directors and low and be hold none of them had any beauty background, most had degrees in things that had nothing to do with beauty or even the industry of writing. A glimmer of hope...a sign? who knows! Any way lets get on to the good stuff<br /><br />Whats new for the next beauty quarter,<br /><br />Brights are going to be big but then again spring/summer colours tend to be bright...<br /><br />Think MACs dare to wear collection (most of these colours were made to main colours and not just limited edition like some collections)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzCp3Vwlf5LOLqX0pR4rU18o99Kl5T-BViUTfmLkxyyU85puv4syb0h1BuleL4fqCdLOtcGd_yVKGuSmuqraoFeCumxzhbOs4Kp20OUjw3HEJ4jZtNCWhPUycPpKTvoPKPlQiXWJXqbGM/s1600/mac-dare-to-wear-eyeshadows-review-photos-swatches-part-2-19186989.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 310px; height: 187px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzCp3Vwlf5LOLqX0pR4rU18o99Kl5T-BViUTfmLkxyyU85puv4syb0h1BuleL4fqCdLOtcGd_yVKGuSmuqraoFeCumxzhbOs4Kp20OUjw3HEJ4jZtNCWhPUycPpKTvoPKPlQiXWJXqbGM/s400/mac-dare-to-wear-eyeshadows-review-photos-swatches-part-2-19186989.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5560339103663607218" /></a><br /><br />Mac have some amazing blues as well, this trend is a dramatic look and if your a Bobby Brown type of girl this trend is not for you! <br /><br />Make sure you use lots of mascara and maybe a thin line of black liner as your lashes can disappear making the eye look strange and you may feel it doesnt suit you.<br /><br />Green eyes really suit popping purples, it really makes them sparkle<br /><br />When using blue shadows try and keep the rest of your make up simple ie lips nude. You dont want to look like an 80's reject unless thats the look your going for...<br /><br />and try using two different contrasting colours to create a creative look.Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-76001748281443811232011-01-08T07:31:00.000-08:002011-01-08T07:48:47.119-08:00Disco Disco Disco!Hey Guys, <br /><br />I was out on the town last night with some friends I didnt manage to see over christmas.

I was up on the Isle of Mull so haven't had time to update my blog sorry!<br /><br />I got some lovely beauty goodies and other little treasures from Santa which I cant wait to tell you about but I haven't gone through them all and need to take pics and that. I also got £50 to spend at MAC in my stocking so can wait to spend it. I have my eye on one little beauty, the MAC mineralizing finish powder and am sure I will find a few others to tame my addiction!<br /><br />I have been watching lots of YOUTUBE videos and am desperate to get me some of that! I just have no idea how to get started and my blog isn't crazy popular so I don't really know what to do. I find blogging fun but you can lose motivation if you feel no one is reading!<br /><br />I am still off college at the moment but I have a spray tan course tomo with fake bake which I cant wait for. So I have not done much during the holidays other than chill with my family its been great.<br /><br />Today I went for a lovely walk, the weather is that nice crisp fresh cold air but it plays havoc to my skin. I have the answer! <br /><br />Oilatum natural repair face cream. <br /><br />I have found heaven!<br /><br /><br />I was first introduced into after watching a video by pixiwoo on youtube and Nicola's skin was AMAZING! She then said she was using this as her skin had been so dry and flaky due to the weather. I suffer from dry skin and have managed to keep the flaking at bay this winter but I love trying out moisturisers and abit of a moisturiser slut, I have tried them all. This appears to be a light formula but its very deceiving and you only need a small amount to cover the face and neck area. I made the mistake of using a hearty sized blob on my first go and I had lots left over. It can feel a little greasy but it does sink into the skin. It made me skin feel cold and fresh after I applied it which was a nice touch and was easy to wear under make up. And here is the decider of why I love this....I got so many compliments about how dewy and glowing my skin looked! Yeah! This is a very hydrating face cream and I would recommend trying it. Its available at Boots and other good shops for £7.74 so wont break the bank!

Been out alot with Christmas night outs and meeting people before I head home to the Isle of Mull. It started snowing so heavy again and they have closed the airports again...I am hoping to hitch a ride with Santa if the weather continues.<br /><br />I am hoping to start Vloging on youtube after the new year. I have had to ask my little sister to show me how to make and edit video as I am so bad with technology. So I hope you guys will tune in and spread the work.<br /> What sort of things would you like to see? I was thinking maybe even doing some beauty therapy techniques like eye lash/brow tinting and manicures, what do you think?<br /><br />I ordered my new GHD's as my old ones were not as save-able as I first thought. I got them from www.thefuckygroup.co.uk. Its a great site that has great deal and a added bonus is if you have a snapfax you get 5% off!

I love watching make up hauls and tutorial on youtube and love discovering videos I have never seen before. Yesterday I was off and had the whole house to myself so indulged in my favourite treat and came across a channel called pixiwoo. Now They are very well known and rank 3rd in youtube guru's! Pretty good! <br />There videos are informal but with informative about new products and give fantastic make up ideas. As I was watching they kept mentioning a web page <a href="http://www.gurumakeupemporium.com/">www.gurumakeupemporium.com</a>, well I got too excited when I clicked on the link! They stock makeupforever!! Make up forever is a brand thats widely available in the states but near impossible to get here in the UK. They also stock many brands that are not available in the UK or are like make up forever(you would sell your soul to get your hands on). They also stock lots of cool professional make up artistry products like postiches and SFX make up. Amazing!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIOe50i7uCTL4FYdcct5POJnrjkPA-dxo6fnzN5OXM_XdRNdkWajxJtnQgabT2dkkSkZBEm-d0r227ZfOOQt-EdSv-JFCuikt0Iotp0ltOGj7Qkw_vD-VSAKyCo974M75iJIxbKlO-jDY/s1600/pixiwoo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 259px; height: 194px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIOe50i7uCTL4FYdcct5POJnrjkPA-dxo6fnzN5OXM_XdRNdkWajxJtnQgabT2dkkSkZBEm-d0r227ZfOOQt-EdSv-JFCuikt0Iotp0ltOGj7Qkw_vD-VSAKyCo974M75iJIxbKlO-jDY/s400/pixiwoo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550500517078919474" /></a><br /><br />Here is a pic of wat they can do! impressive!

I have seen a Youtube video by Kandee Johnson and she talked about using the Mac foundation stick to couture your face to make it appear thinner. I have a very round chubby looking face so I was quite excited about using this trick. I got to the counter and the lady told me they were discontinuing it! My face fell! Its a good product so I am unsure why they are doing that any way she sent me away with some samples to try at home that are suppose to be the same but in liquid form...we will just have to wait and see.<br /><br />Well as i posted on my last post my straighteners have past to the great hair salon in the sky..(tear) so the next thing on my Christmas wish list is the new midnight deluxe GHD straighter set.

I was very excited about this. I have had my eye on a few thing but the thing I want most is the smashbox masquerade eye shadow palette. The colours are very rich and have a jewel like tone to them. They are a mix of matte and shimmery shades so you can play it save or mix it up. Smashbox eye shades are very pigmented and if you like Urban decay book of colours these are going to knock your cashmere socks off! These colours are so wearable but have enough dareness to them to create sexy dark eyes but if used wisely a warm day look.<br />These shadows apply easily and blend beautifully. Crease resistant is another pro,good for all skin tones but suit a fair skin the best.<br /><br />The packaging is also gorgeous.

I love snow but when it stops you from being able to do anything it gets a little bit boring. So I ventured out my house after 5 days, yes count them 5 days of isolation I headed into town to cheer myself up with a little retail therapy! The idea was just to get Christmas presents for my family but how can you buy presents for everyone and not for yourself?? How selfish! haha Well I got everything for my family's Christmas(GO ME!) but i also got myself a little something something..<br /><br />First is this lovely faux fur coat from new look, I was drawn to the leopard print style but I thought this brown one is more classic and also my gran had a real fur that was the spitting image of this one. She left it too me when she passed and I couldn't bring myself to wear it or get rid of it. It was 59.99 but with my student discount 20%!!! it was only like 55, i think...i also got little cute studs for 4.99 I couldn't find a pic of them and my lead has gone missing for my camera again.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge-c7VZ4mbJSL618IJ0T7Mo4V2RjrQK0vhikkEshGaTRay7_Cql4vZdM5sYdPUyzjfPN0BJtlfdrmISREynoWEFIL3Va2XO9SnyXFn14m3ALDxj_cN9BjeZOtYSDRpDjjfzIBFaHRyhm0/s1600/203395327.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 186px; height: 230px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge-c7VZ4mbJSL618IJ0T7Mo4V2RjrQK0vhikkEshGaTRay7_Cql4vZdM5sYdPUyzjfPN0BJtlfdrmISREynoWEFIL3Va2XO9SnyXFn14m3ALDxj_cN9BjeZOtYSDRpDjjfzIBFaHRyhm0/s400/203395327.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546497517016851282" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I also have my college Christmas night out tomorrow night I prob be looking more forward to it if it was so bloody cold!!

Its an Edinburgh based cosmetic, toiletry and household good testing unit and they are always looking for volunteers. <br /><br />They are going to be at Jewel and Esk college(Milton rd campus) on Thursday 9th Dec and they are looking for people between the ages of 18 and 70 to take part in a little trial for a well known mascara remover. <br /><br />If you occasionally wear mascara, they need you to test a<br />current marketed product and a new product designed to remove mascara, and to complete a short questionnaire<br />for us which should take you no more than 15 minutes.<br /><br />Also each person who takes part will receive a payment of 10 pounds!!! As a student this is a pretty sweet deal.<br /><br />They will also be looking to add people to there list of volunteers and you can earn a wee bit more testing beauty products out. Don't worry they just want consumer reviews and all are safe to use.<br /><br />If your interested you can register on there web page www.albascience.com or email them at volunteers@albascience.comGail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-53204514775895697862010-12-01T01:43:00.000-08:002010-12-01T02:04:31.459-08:00Let it snow!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvftLt4B7iHo0cgfqS8p9U4DXteYV0-vwzhrfFqQ6QFuo290brKM6BOyZe0dFl2q-PAPyD_7PPOt_-vtgtkF0_Zfwm35e2Ix2zn8oSsBWIu8dh0prg98REJ8G6O2pCWG6ABPBoVSpoL3c/s1600/155340_464151411299_709076299_6249715_1210099_n.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvftLt4B7iHo0cgfqS8p9U4DXteYV0-vwzhrfFqQ6QFuo290brKM6BOyZe0dFl2q-PAPyD_7PPOt_-vtgtkF0_Zfwm35e2Ix2zn8oSsBWIu8dh0prg98REJ8G6O2pCWG6ABPBoVSpoL3c/s400/155340_464151411299_709076299_6249715_1210099_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545651780772782386" /></a><br />Oh my god! Unless you have been living under a rock you will be very aware of the sever weather we have been having. It has been snowing like crazy and I have never seen it like this in my whole life time, nearly 25 years! We have about a 3 feet of snow and the temp in the minus 5's!I know this is the normal from some parts of America and others places but for UK this is CRAZY!! I have been stuck in the house for like 4 days and I am starting to get cabin fever! This does give me alot of time to update my blog. I have also have registered a new web page but am not giving it out yet as I have no idea now to work it.<br /><br />So with this cold weather you have to make sure your skin routine is up to date and changing your moisturiser to a more hydrating one is a good start. I usually use a simple age defying moisturiser in the summer months as it works well with my sun block but I need something a little thicker and more hydrating.<br /><br />I am using dermalogica skin smoothing cream, I LOVE this cream! I would use this all year round if I didn't find it too heavy in the heat. <br />This cream is good for dry, dehydrated and premature skin types (prefect for me) I combined this with my special cleansing gel and multi active toner spray(both dermalogica) I notice a different straight away. Now dermalogica is a profession brand but is retailed. It can be quite expensive when buying the whole cleansing routine but can you really put a price on beauty...well you can but <a href="http://www.beautyflash.co.uk/">beautyflash</a> you can get dermalogica and many other brands at wholesale price. Well worth it!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXQKGQTiuORv0uIZ6cxjsoucfHzJvlwFL2q3ArdzXMJwRUuwJhzTmr7N4hMu_8esy7WqFtehU_VH3FRUY-x1qqQeYSonBDCH4yPyT8-a2-vSC9kHhJsiwdGircCyOftBu6tooEGRXqHAY/s1600/35_MS_SSC_3-4oz_WB.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 350px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXQKGQTiuORv0uIZ6cxjsoucfHzJvlwFL2q3ArdzXMJwRUuwJhzTmr7N4hMu_8esy7WqFtehU_VH3FRUY-x1qqQeYSonBDCH4yPyT8-a2-vSC9kHhJsiwdGircCyOftBu6tooEGRXqHAY/s400/35_MS_SSC_3-4oz_WB.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545652080321802258" /></a>Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084046886083714267.post-57343231002938562842010-11-22T06:17:00.000-08:002010-12-01T01:43:25.425-08:00plenty of fish in the bowl!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8K2fRqpFXisS8bd27nAkI9BFPLXI9rf1VFzdj4xghWk6C5BqSRq_8mVECrHoDSzZNk5isPVGH7_hIBVC9o5eMJj_5wW7GKU1WK8zl3FJc6vFwWTmoJA9iSKhMAwoVovu5Ca_HuY3GXkg/s1600/37120_452416251299_709076299_6095081_4981540_n.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8K2fRqpFXisS8bd27nAkI9BFPLXI9rf1VFzdj4xghWk6C5BqSRq_8mVECrHoDSzZNk5isPVGH7_hIBVC9o5eMJj_5wW7GKU1WK8zl3FJc6vFwWTmoJA9iSKhMAwoVovu5Ca_HuY3GXkg/s400/37120_452416251299_709076299_6095081_4981540_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545647007848465874" /></a><br />A new shop has opened up in Edinburgh called Appy Feet, It is in St James centre in the city centre. I have heard about this fishy pedicure a wee while ago. This treatment was pretty much just a London thing in the UK but has started to go national in the last wee while. The fish are specially bred for this pedicure, Garra Rufa or sometimes called doctor fish. They have been used in the past to eat the dead flesh in wounds to stop infection but now have because the designer must have treatment to the stars and us normal ppl! <br />My boyfriend took me for a little treat as he knows I love any treatment! <br />I went in and wasn't blown away. It kinda looked like a had walked into an under stock pet shop but I was willing be give it ago. Its a bit steep in price 10 pound for 15 Min's but I was willing to pay just for the experience. The water is cleaned through a water fall filter system so the water is constantly cleaning its self and new clients feet are washed and sanitized before entering the water. As soon as your feet touch the water the fish attack your feet. It feels so tickly but not unpleasant.<br /><br />After the treatment my feet did feel soft but this could be due to the fact my feet had been soaking in warm water...there was one thing I was worried about...the fish. The lady says they have to buy 100,000 fish every few weeks as the fish die quickly due to eating so much and as the fish have to be imported they order high numbers because thousands die during transport. I know they are breed in high numbers for this treatment but they are living things, is it really any better that killing for fur? I know, it is different and this is probably a trend that will die out when some other wacky treatment comes up but do these fish need to die doing something that will take us two minutes to do with a foot file??

After we went for a walk through John Lewis, its a fave place of mine as there is so much in there, I love the home section. (they had the xmas dec up as well today which kinda got me excited!) as i was in there i decided to do what I normally do when am in there and purchase one of my favourite little indulgence, Lily Flame candle in fairy dust.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR1tJxL7u4l76iZa4iSZ4AmtTwV9xbP8SRrKg6wh7La3ME4KyrUh-w26RtRdaoXI0oTjiZ3Js2C21IlGihc2tP902OW21f1LVe2AIfhbJTZIm7q5z__uuZ899DTqPAb_xwCE8DvS7rQc8/s1600/31Iy4QyuJYL._SL500_AA300_.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR1tJxL7u4l76iZa4iSZ4AmtTwV9xbP8SRrKg6wh7La3ME4KyrUh-w26RtRdaoXI0oTjiZ3Js2C21IlGihc2tP902OW21f1LVe2AIfhbJTZIm7q5z__uuZ899DTqPAb_xwCE8DvS7rQc8/s400/31Iy4QyuJYL._SL500_AA300_.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523866874143812274" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Its my favourite scent EVA! Its hard to describe this scent, its kinda unique and sophisticated sugary sweet. It reminds me of turkish delight. I can burn these candles all day but am afraid they dont last very long but I dont care I love going into a room and smelling this aroma! They have so many scents to chose from bathing beauty, coconut grove and blush just to name a very small few.<br /><br />Most of these scents also come in a room spray and scent defuser. <div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>P.s I am also super excited because I have just ordered my new Massage table!

Now how could i resist? I went to investigate and it was a stall for <a href="http://www.albascience.com/">Alba Science</a>. Alba science is a research organisation in Edinburgh that test cosmetics, toiletries, sun care and household products. Now I signed up as I love trying new things and I got talking to the head lady and told her about my blog and they are interested in working with me and help them get some new volunteers.<br /><br />Now if any of yous are interested click on the link and register online...now it wont hurt and you get to try out new products or improved ones<br /><br /><br /> http://www.albascience.com/Gail Noblehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14701871974550519174noreply@blogger.com0
