Paul mitchell shampoo and conditioner

hey everyone,
today i am going to review a shampoo and conditioner that i received from the lovely people at http://www.hairtrade.com/.

If you have never heard about hair trade before, basically their one of the UK's leading hair extensions hair care and beauty products, all available online.

sigma travel blending brush

hey everyone,
so as you may notice i have put up some sigma banners along the side of my blog, this basically means that i am now an affiliate with sigma, which means every-time you click on the banner i get a percentage of money out of it, now i am definitely not doing it for the money because i don't expect anything really, i know sad right, but im doing it for the pure reason that i just love sigma, and when you become an affiliate they send you monthly newsletters and things to tell you what's new and what to expect.

I have put it in my disclaimer so you all understand about it, but anyway back to my point:

Sigma sent me the travel tapered blending brush E25, $11 (£6) and i thought i would tell you abit about it,

Marbled chocolate crumble cake

hey guys,
so if you watched my birthday vlog on youtube, i will leave the link for it here, please go check it out and subscribe!.
i made a birthday cake for myself, and it soooo tasty. I am going to show you how i made it and give you like a step by step guide on how i did it,
i did change the recipe a little bit but i got it from a cookbook called cake by Rachel Allen, who apparently is famous on the cooking station, i don't know sorry =[, but yeah, so i am in no way taking credit for it, i just want to show you how amazing this recipe is and then you might go buy it yourself, ay?

my birthday haul

hey everyone,
so i wanted to show you all what i got for my birthday,
i am certainly not trying to brag, or say that i have more things then you, i am just showing what lovely things i went shopping and got.
i mostly got money so i could pick the things that i wanted to buy, so this is why i have put it into a video form
so please have a look and subscribe to my you tube channel, it would be a wonderful thing if you did!

avengers nail series: thor

hey everyone,
so next up in this series is Thor, now looking on Google and things there is not one nail art design dedicated to Thor what-so-ever,
so with this i had to go off my own imagination and hopefully its come out ok
so:

i have used all Barry m products where possible because i think they are so good for nail art, and they are:

• Barry m raspberry
• Barry m silver foil effect
• Barry m cobalt blue

first step:

paint all your nails the same colours, i used Barry m's raspberry

second step: 

wait till it FULLY dry's, really important!! and then place some celotape diagonally along your nails each side so it creates a v shape, miss the middle finger out though, we will put a design on that.

third step:

paint the v shape with the Barry m silver foil effect and let it dry, peel it off when dry.

forth step:

with the middle finger i took my dotting tool, dipped it in the silver and made a sideways rectangle, i then mixed the red and blue together to create kind of a dark brown colour and used the dotting tool to make a long rectangle in the middle of the silver one, so it makes it look like his hammer, then i waited for it to dry and then added a little zig-zag to the brown section. hopefully it look like a hammer.

and thats it, quite simple, only 3 colours so hopefully very easy to re-create, hope you like, and tell me what you think?

Happy Birthday to me!

wlecome to: Harry the rabbit

Hey everyone,
so if you cant guess by the title, i have a new addition to our little family,
id like you to welcome harry the rabbit :D

i have had him for about 4 weeks now, and if some of you follow me on twitter or instragram @MissPenelope90 then you would have seen a couple of pictures of him, he is a beautiful bunny rabbit, and he isss soooo pretty,
we think he is only about 3 months old now, which is tiny, but im guessing he is going to become a big little bunny rabbit, but i will show you some pictures of him so you can see just how cute he is :D

What my face is worth: budget

Hey everyone,

so im back with my "what is my face worth" post, this time it is the budget, or cheaper every day look.
hopefully, will be much cheaper then my high end products, but we will see

What my face is worth: high end

Hey everyone

i know quite a few people have done this tag, but i haven't yet, and it got suggested at the #bbloggers 2 Sundays ago for me to do, and i thought well why not, so here it is, im going to do it in 2 half's,

this one will be all my high end products, that i either wear for work or when i want to make myself feel richer then i am, haha, then i will do my budget, low end, type one, and this will just be my every day makeup that i use.

so here we go :/ :

Nail art series: iron man!

Hey everyone,

ao last week i showed you what ill be doing for my nail series, I know some of you may get bored of it but thats oki, because i have alot more posts to write up, so hopefully if you dont like this you will still love to come back and read the other posts.


so this week is IRON MAN! and i have to say, this was alot easier coming up with an idea, and i differently think it turned out better then the first one, that was a disaster!,
so lets get started:

Lazy Saturday cooking

Hey everyone.
so yesterday you might have seen on my instragram yesterday, that i posted myself having a really lazy day, because it was my first weekend off for ages with my bf.

so after that, we decided to go to the shop and buy some ingredients, and i ,made the well loved favourite cornflake cakes :D
yeahhhh, but this time, i made them with white chocolate, now you all probably know how to make them, but i am going to show you anyway, and i hope after this you will want to make these well loved cakes too :D

avengers series: captain america

hey everyone,
so today for my nail of the week i thought i would show you all my geeky side, now with the new film that's come out, avengers i can safely say that my geekyness has truly come out.

i lovvvveeee the avengers, i can nearly name them all, which either makes people pretty impressed, or they think "dear lord".
so i thought i would do a little nail art series with them, only the ones from the new film, it doesn't include spider man unfortunately =[,

but i thought i would give myself a challenge, because im not always very good at nail art, but im very creative, so i thought i might be getting better as we go through this, feel free to join in as we go along.
i am only doing one a week, but obviously you can do them every day if you want to, or whatever its fine by me...
soo....
