Products I am currently using

I have a bunch of things I've been meaning to review but that means taking the pictures and thinking about them and blah blah blah, and even though I actually have this week off and have all the time in the world to do such things, I can't be bothered. I'm in a bit of a funk - I'm a bit miserable about my job, I hate not having as much money to throw around now that I am single (though truth be told, that can only do me good), I've had a low level cold/virus/bug thingie for a week or so, and my ankle hurts for some mysterious reason. So I'm wallowing a bit and not doing much of anything productive.

Anyway, today I am going to steal an idea from The Mustard Jumper and just tell you what products I am using at the moment. It might seem a bit of a weird list, because I'm still on my No Buy and working through things I have, including a lot of stuff I received as samples or freebies that I would not normally buy myself.

  3. Jacquie, I've had those concealers forever. Bought them from Strawberrynet.

    Stefanie, Angora Cardi is great - a really nice muted purple/mauve colour. And it has a nice consistency too - I've found some of the Essies can be a bit streaky or dodgy. This is definitely one of the better ones. :-)

  4. The only exciting thing I am using is a sample of KMS Add Volume and guess what... IT DOES!!! Even when I haven't blow dried my hair, it's still got foof. Happy with that.

    SO at least my hair is looking awesome even if the rest of me looks like crap!
