Tweet You know how you really, really look forward to something all week, and then when it comes it’s just a big disappointment and you just feel kind of…cheated? I felt this way twice this week. The first was dinner at Market Kitchen Restaurant, Manchester – the food was bland, the portions small, the service slow. The waiter got shouted at so many times I felt sorry for him and left him a tip even though it took 15 minutes {Read More}
Tweet I was invited to try Xtreme Lashes, done by the lovely Esme Winterflood – a make up artist by trade who has also trained in applying lash extensions. Lash extensions are glorious, although there are pros and cons. One of the major cons is damage to the lashes – depending on how good your technician is, you can really end up with a lot less lashes after the whole process is over. Esme took some time talking to me {Read More}
Tweet I was sent to Eleven Hair on 11 Blenheim Street, London over the weekend to get my khaki coloured hair sorted out (it was lightened to almost white, then I dyed over it with an ash and it went green). So off I toddled to Eleven Hair Salon, which is nice and central, just off Oxford Road (if I can find it, anyone can)… Inside the little salon (well it looks small from the outside, once you get in, {Read More}
Tweet If you follow me on Twitter, then you will know that I was very excited to visit Aqua Sheko, a fish pedicure ‘bar’ situated in Kensington, London. I found out about the place via Wahanda and also thanks to this lady (I couldn’t get on the site so she helped me book! It was so busy at the time of launch). I took Mr Candy with me, and he only moaned a little about it, every day. Wahanda offered {Read More}
Tweet I will be doing a proper, full comparison of the various lash extension treatments I have tried soon, but since a reader Debbie asked me for a quick pro and cons list of having lash extensions done…here it is! Pros: 1. Lash Extensions look amazing when done by a talented technician! 2. They can look as natural or dramatic as you want so you can customise your lashes (length etc.) 3. They last for a few weeks (depends on {Read More}
I squeeze in a lot of things when I’m down in London and since I spotted the Wahanda deal for Gielly Green Boutique Salon (I paid £35 for a Haircut and Manicure) I thought – why the hell not! I could do with a trim anyway…. So, where do I start? How about how my direction sense goes out of the window when I’m in London town. Making a 9.30am appointment was not a wise move on my part, especially {Read More}
Tweet **Update: my shoulder is absolutely KILLING me after this massage. It feels like the muscle over my shoulder blade is pulling in the wrong place. Ouch** I purchased a Wahanda Mobdeal (think they are great) for Heaven Spa located in Manchester at the rather posh Hilton Hotel last week. (When I say posh, I mean posh like how Organic Muesli is posh compared to Frosties, or how Nandos is compared to KFC. Its just a facade.) The Hilton, in {Read More}
Tweet Those of you who follow me on twitter will know that I was fretting very much about my impending spray tan for various reasons – 1. I’m scared of fake tan 2. I’m don’t like standing nude or semi-nude in front of other people 3. To get the girls out, or not? Hmmm. With much trepidation, I went to my local Selfridges for a Xen-Tan spray tan. One bit of comfort I had is that I have tried the {Read More}
