Malta! Malta! Malta!

Note: None of the below pictures belong to me, ALL rights reserved to each photographer, media person etc

Ahhhhhhh I am so excited!


.....Next March me and my Tourism Management class will be going to Malta! All expenses paid by uni except for lunch! Granted we have to do presentations most evenings but hey travelling is travelling!

I haven't been on a plane since August 2011 to Jamaica which was my very first time so going without my siblings on a plane will be a nerve wrecking but exciting experience!

Couple facts about Malta!





1. Malta is quite close to North Africa, think Libya, Tunisia

2. In Malta 3 pin sockets are used like in the UK! Woo hoo no adapters needed lol

3. Weather in March ranges from around 16 - 19 degrees Celsius so not overly hot but still nice weather.

4. The people of Malta speak Maltese and NOT Spanish as I had previously assumed lol

5. To give you an example of how small Malta is, Jamaica (which is pretty small itself) i10,990 square kilometers and has a population of 2,709,300 whereas Malta is only 316 square kilometres and has a population of just 419,000 people! Small but perfectly formed!....



6. According to Acts 28 Paul The Apostle was stranded in Malta! and the people of the island showed 'Unusual kindness' awww

7.The capital of Malta is Valletta (we will be visiting Mellieha in North West Malta)

8. Kif Inti means "How are you" & Bongu is "Good morning"


I also found on YouTube this video on Malta, the music is..... a little strange lol but the country looks gorgeousss *day dreams*


Sooo excited to go, will make sure to do a post afterwards
Ever been to Malta? Any thing you recommend going to see or do? 
God Bless

Going virgin for a 2nd time!

Haha okay the title may be a little strange but hey it got you here right!

What the title means is that I bought some more Virgin Brazilian hair! I really wanted to try long straight hair so I thought I'd give it a try and as I cut the tracks of my last Brazilian (NEVER do that lol) it all shed and there was definitelyyyy no reusing it lol

I've been meaning to do this post for a while now but I thought I'd get some wear into it so I can see how it reallllly acts lol

I bought the hair from a company called My Hair Obsessions (you can find their Facebook page here) I bought it from their Ebay store, I was quite sceptical at first because I had never heard of the company & it's a lot of money to spend over Ebay but the reviews seemed good and I liked that you could buy groups of bundles for one price instead of buying them individually.
I bought inches 14, 16, 18 & 20 for one price of £180 (thank goodness for working over the summer lol) It may seem a lot but anyone who's shopped around can tell you this is a gooood price!

The deliver was only £4 & it was First Class post! (I had to wait a few days longer as post obviously doesn't deliver on weekends but that's not the company's fault of course)

When it did arrive I was so pleased! Here's how the bundles were packaged....

They arrived all in one pouch, seemed small at first but yep they were all in there!

Sorry for the bad quality but each bundle came with a label with the type of hair ticked, the inch circled, the texture circled & also tells you how much it weighs 
Layed out in height (inch) order lol

The lovely and very talented Patricia from P Belle beauty done my hair for me, her company PBelleBeauty are based in Canterbury & London and she charges extremely good prices! Especially considering she comes to you, you can find her Facebook page here and her Twitter page here. She talks through everything she does step by step and always makes sure you're happy with the result, talking of results here's how my hair came out!....





The hair was really silky and had extremely minimum shedding!
One week with the hair it's lost a lot of its shine & seems more dry even though the shedding is still extremely low....



It still looks pretty good though and I found a tip on Youtube that helps with dryness..

1.Brush out the hair
2. Dampen the hair but don't saturate it
3.Use a small amount of frizz serum
4.Straighten

Here's the serum I used....
It is Shockwaves Shine & Anti Frizz serum with heat protectant.

Anyway just thought I'd share what I'm up to with my hair, was considering bleaching the tips but I don't want it to get any dryer.

Know how to lighten your hair without bleach? Drop me a comment below!

I bought some new lashes! Woop!
I have naturally long lashes but I love buying them to wear on special occasions (special occasions as in when the lash actually decides stick to my eye properly -__- lol)
I hadn't even planned to buy any but then I saw in Superdrug that the Girls Aloud range had a new one out! The 10th Anniversary Celebration Lash! 
 Girls Aloud lashes have always appeared to me to be good quality and natural looking so I thought I'd give them a try! (This specific lash is meant to be a combination of all the Girls Aloud eyelashes)
When I buy lashes I always try and find ones that have a clear lash line instead of a thick black one because to me they look unnatural and are really hard for me to glue on lol! :'(


The packaging:



The contents:

The lashes! They start thin at the centre then gradually wing out thicker (You see what I mean about the clear lash line)

The glue (sorry for the blur)

Free Girls Aloud lanyard

Instruction leaflet
The glue isn't the worst I've tried, it kept one of the lashes on all night but the other lash I accidentally lashed and it came a bit loose haha! I should have used more (use quite a bit of glue)

Here's the finished product below! Ignore the slightly strange face expression haha!




Do you wear lashes? Got a favourite? Post below!

God Bless
