Nails of the Week

This was my first nail colour this week. Purple! I got this in Penney's about 2 years ago. Glo Baby Glo. It's meant to glow under UV but I don't tend to venture near UV lights!

It needed to 2 coats to be classified as a deep purple. It doesn't look it here but it was a bit darker than Cadbury's purple.
The polish went on easy enough and wasn't messy. No doubt it was cheap enough so I can have no complaints here!

I was bored one night and when organising my nail polishes (might do a post on that!). I found my Rimmel - Flower Power. It's a very very very light shimmer pink. I decided to see what it would be like over the Glo Baby Glo purple.

Winter's Here. Hand Care Time

With the winter upon us and dry hands being a curse of this season I thought I'd blog about my favourite hand cream. Soap & Glory's Hand Food. I bought this hand cream after trying out my friend's one. It is indeed fabulous! I had labs in college 4 days a week and my hands were getting drier and drier from the gloves and constant hand washing. They felt awful. This hand cream has been a god send!

I have also been recommending it to a lot of my friends who I know suffered from the same problem as me through their jobs - working with food, in hospitals etc. Between the gloves, hand washing and hand sanitizers their hands were drier and harder than mine. I even told my dad about this hand cream. He works outdoors so his hands are weathered. I can safely say none of us have looked back!

What it says?

Contains shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow . Scented with our Original Pink fragrance. the most astonishing hand cream ever? You decide!

A Little Bit Spicy...

I adore cooking, trying to get into baking but that's a whole other story! Recently I have been trying to make my own sauces and seasoning. I find a lot of store bought stuff too salty and full of other bad things! Here are 2 quick simple recipes of mine. One is for a fajita seasoning mix and the other is a slightly spicy pasta sauce. I love spicy foods :) And there is a press full of herbs and spices which leaves me spoiled for choice when I'm cooking!

Fajita Seasoning Mix Recipe
1 tablespoon cornflour
2 teaspoons red hot chili powder
1 crushed oxo chicken cube (or similar)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or a crushed garlic glove)
1/4 teaspoon cumin
