Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara....

I didn't think there was a mascara that could beat my Rimmel Wonder'full Mascara which I really loved but I think I might have found one. 
I always love Rimmel Mascaras, I never have a problem with them and I find them so good for my lashes. I'm lucky in that I already have quite long lashes but with any Rimmel mascaras I have used, it just extends them even more and gives them a bit of volume. As I said I love the Wonder'full mascara and I have been using it for ages but it had got the point where it was all drying up and wasn't as good as before so I definitely needed to look for a replacement.

I had never seen the Lash Accelerator Mascara before but I thought I would give it a try and I can see this being one I repurchase over and over. It makes my lashes look false but in a natural way. The brush separates my lashes well, there are no clumps and it lives up to its name with the endless look it gives. It gives a good amount of volume aswell as length and I just think it makes my eyes stand out. I love being able to see the difference my mascara is making and I can really tell as soon as I put it on. I can't recommend this enough! 

You can buy this from Superdrug for £7.99 and its currently buy one Rimmel product, get one half price. I'm definitely going to be getting this again in future.

Have you tried this mascara?

A Day of Food and Shopping - Next, Primark and Superdrug Haul...

After the last few days, some retail therapy was in need and some nice food so we went to Meadowhall for a few hours on Saturday. We may have forgotten to take pictures of our food at Nandos but we were hungry so I was a bad blogger there! 
We didn't get loads, just some things which we probably didn't need. Next had a huge sale on, by the time we were there, most things were gone but they did have loads of perfume and gift sets on sale. I had to get some. They had individual bottles on sale for £10 or gift sets for £9 which include the perfume and body souffle.I got it in the scent Bergamot and Rich Amber which honestly smells like summer. I can't wait to use this! Its original prices was £25 too so it was a proper bargain. I picked up a casual loose vest from Primark for just £4. It's in a khaki green, I love that colour and it looked really nice with my black skinny jeans and my sandals. I can't wait to wear it next week to work. It also matched well with my New Look Kimono. I had something to take back to Paperchase and while I was there I picked up a little notebook to keep in my bag at work.The picture doesn't show it very well but it says 'Wander, Discover, Explore'. I thought I could use this for any blog ideas I come up with when im out or if I need to note anything done while im at work, it was only £3 too. From Superdrug I got the Rimmel Rita Ora Nail Polish in Daisy Days and Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara, i'll do a full review of both on my blog soon but they both look good and the nail polish is a very pretty colour. The only other thing I picked up which isn't pictured is some jeans from Dorothy Perkins, I've found their jeans to be the best for my shape and they are just so comfy. I got them in blue as I already have the black ones and as I wear them for work a lot, they're getting a bit ruined! On our way out we got some Millies Cookies because they're amazing and who doesn't love Millies Cookies?

4 Years..

This post is seriously late! It was mine and Georges 4 year anniversary on Monday 6th and I feel so bad putting this up so late  but I didn't want to put up a rubbish post so I thought it was better to spend some time on it and post it when I can.  

I honestly don't know where the last four years have gone, it has gone so fast! I see pictures on my Facebook or Twitter sometimes and its hard to believe that we've been together so long already and all the things we've done. We've had a difficult couple of years but I really believe that if anything was going to break us, it would have happened by now. I feel like it was November last year when things really started getting better for us. We got engaged (we're still hoping and planning for New York next year) and we moved into our flat, which finally feels like home, and got to spend our first proper christmas together in our own place. In that time we did have a lot of other stuff going on which wasn't so great, I won't go into detail, im not really sure how I would anyway, but I think we've realised over the last few months that your family is the one you make yourself and that can include anyone you choose, it doesn't have to have people in it who you might assume should be in it, if that makes any sense. We have each other and thats all we've really had for a long time, and we're okay like that. We have great friends and we don't need anybody else. Though I am hoping in a few years we'll have a few new additions to our little family.

Even though there has been lows the last few years, there has also been so many highs and I can't wait to see what the next 4 years have in store for us, I can't wait to move into a bigger house together, get married, have babies, get a dog (im basically begging at the moment), go on amazing holidays, just so many things that we still have to look forward to and be excited about! 

For our actual anniversary on the Monday, we got each other a few presents and had a lovely meal that George cooked. We didn't really want to do anything fancy, sometimes the best days are spent at home and it really was a great day. I just love spending time with him and love him so much. We argue over silly things sometimes and annoy each other, like every couple, but there is no one else I would rather be with.
An old, drunken photo of us! He got my favourites, Flipz and Dairy Milk Puddles! He also got me The Comforter from Lush as it was one of the first ones he got me 4 years ago and he kind of had a theme to get me things he got me years ago!

Chocolate Chip Flapjack Recipe

I made flapjack for the first time ever a few days ago and we honestly loved it. I've always wanted to make it but I usually either don't have the ingredients or I don't have the time but this time I had both and I wanted to try something different. 
Ingredients: 
50g of chocolate, chopped up or you could use chocolate chips
175g oats
1 tbsp of golden syrup
125g of butter
125g of demerara sugar 

Method: 
1. Melt the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a saucepan. 
2. While it is melting together chop up the chocolate. 
3. Add the oats to the mixture in the pan and make sure everything is stirred in properly, you can then add the chocolate. 
4. Tip into a greased tin and bake in a 180 degrees pre-heated oven for 30 minutes. 
5. When cooked, tip out onto a wire rack to cool then cut into squares. 
Let me know if you try this recipe, it's so easy to make and just tastes delicious!
