the wonders of poor quality slapp.

 

Your going out for a meal, or going to see a movie, meeting up with the girls, or your boyfriend. looking all nice, you even made the effort to go buy the fancy new brand of mascara, or that ‘long lasting’ lipstick. your out and having a great time, then suddenly it begins to rain, you suddenly panic for a second, then realise your fine as you have waterproof mascara onn, clever you eh? you can probably guess what happens next in my story! i dont know about anyone else but it’s incredibly frustrating when you cant rely on products, expensive products to do their jobs. mascara, lipstick, nail polish. all say there the best, long lasting,waterproof,non chip, all of these promises and there you are realising just how great they can be! i’m not suggesting all products are crap, some of them most probably work, but i’ve certinaly had a few situations where they havent been! i also hate the way on the glamorous adverts about mascara the women have HUUUUGEEEEEE eye lashes, then your like woaaahhh and then it says in small print at the bottom, *model wearing fake eyelashes and its like oh great we can really see how it works then! i dont know about anyone else but i think someone needs to prove me wrong and create a brand that keep their promises! until next time.x

We all swear by them;but dont be fooled!

The one and only, GHD straightening technology. no matter how hard other brand names try, they just cannot complete the same flawless finish and poker straight style. As we all know,  such a perfected finish comes at a price, most start around the reigon of 100 squid. the further up the line with bright colours and special added designs combine with a even higher price. many think that this is a ridiculous amount of money to spend on such a product. but many of us have become reliant on the ghd’s work and they become essential in our day to day lifestyle. thinking about buying some ghds? watch out for the fakes. as there is no competition to this product, you can imagine how many fakes that are being mass-produced this very minute. purshasing fake ghd’s could result to numerous amounts of problems such as dangerous blow ups, over heating and basically true disaster!

heres a few things to look out for when buying GHD’s;

-the irons on the ghds have a small LED to indicate when ready to use, this LED should be clear when switched off. as the fakes have red LED even when are switched off.

-the LED should also flash when ready to use, the fakes do not flash when ready.

-The holograms bear Authenticity Verification Codes (AVCs), which are a series of 3 blocks, each of 5 characters, both numbers, and letters in upper and lower cases.  All AVCs are different.  The AVCs on iron and box, or iron and power cord label – can therefore never match, as each AVC is unique.  These AVCs are individually registered with Schreiner.  If an owner of a ghd iron visits the ghd website (there is only one: www.ghdhair.com), they can click on a link titled ‘Hologram Verification’ (in the section ‘Product Registration’).  There, you type in your AVC (from iron, box/power cord label, or each) to confirm the authenticity of your ghd product.

here are a few things you may notice if you have purshased fake ghds;

-a ‘hanging hole’ on the swivel cord

-A pouch mat, embroidered ‘ghd professional’ comes with the iron (ghd have NEVER released a heat mat, other than the integral mats that are part of their Roll Bags, or the distinctive ‘Wrap’, released as part of a limited package with the Hot Pink iron).

-Box sleeve made from light, corrugated card – best seen from the inside face of the sleeve – (ghd use flat board)

My best advice when buying GHD’s would be to buy from a mainstream shop, or straight from hairdressers,highstreet stores or the ghd website. try to stay away from sites such as ebay, you may be getting a better deal, but imagine the dissapointment! if you really want ghd’s, pay the full price, theres no escape from it! i hope my advice helped. until next time.x

the offical hearthrob of the century.

 Aaah, the gorgeous Robert Pattinson (edward cullen/cedric diggory)i must say before i watched the movie, i didnt find him that attractive. i’d see everyone absolutley raving about him and think; “whats all the fuss about” but now, after watching it i know why. his character is totally lovely and the most perfect amazing lover you could imagine. the way its written is gorgeously passionate and i can imagine all the teenage girls, (including me!) dreaming about having such an amazing man. i must remember that men/boys arent like that, and if they are their hard to find! but what would i know ? haahaa. i dont think he quite realises what hes set himself in for, he’ll have more fans that zac effron at this rate, all the girls swarming him thinking hes gonna be edward cullen, he may well be ladies but most probz hes a normal guy with normal guy behaviour. lol. i’m desparate to read the books as im a very inpatient type and refuses to wait for the next movie. my best friend recently read all 4 of the books and claims theres a teardrop on every page! so im extatic to read them all! i got the first 3 but couldnt find the 4th one on amazon for the same kind of price, if anyone has any ideas let me know.(: His acting in this movie is definatley a contrast from the young adventorous boy called cedric in his starring in harry potter. the combination of action and love, passion and tragic scenes really keeps you on the edge or your seat, a definate watch! until next time.x

you should have put a ring on it!?

iv’e just listened to beyonce’s new album “i am sasha feirce” or something like that, i like the track ‘ if i were a boy’ i thought it was clever and true. but all the rest on the album is not great tbh. first off, why create yourself another name? i respect she might want a new image, i clean slate. but she should have expressed that by giving herself a new look of something, not creating a stupid name like ’sasha feirce’. in her earlier albums like her songs, crazy in love and listen; shes a real superstar! i also love her in the movie, ‘dream girls’ she totally suits that old school image. but im really not keen on her new stuff. its so cliche’! until next time.

The dreaded hairdressers..

i finished school at eleven, half days atm as i’m taking it easy after illness. mum came to meet me, told me i had a hair appoinment in like an hour and a half. which was unexpected really. you see, my oppointment was for yesterday, but nobody turned up. i was stood there like a lemon checking if anyone was actually there. i must have looked like i was trying to break in, ha! nobody was there, dissapointed, i went into town and then back home. silly hairdresser made had a blonde-moment mistake. >.< she did a great job in the end though! i desparatley needed a change, i quite like it really. (: until next time. xo
