One.....

I received a letter this morning reminding me that I shall be receiving my A Level results on Thursday (16th August) but what my college failed to tell me before I had finished was that our results will be posted up online, this I was not happy about! I mean, I'd much prefer going into college and finding our my fate and I'll have friends around me who I could celebrate or grieve with if I did bad, but at home, on a Thursday, no-one is even home, so if I do do (haha just said do-do) horribly wrong, I'll be alonsome... .... I don't even have a cat to cry on and absorb my failure-fied tears, madness I tell you! Anyhow, with this daunting reminder, I started to think about my last (and final) photography project and was like "Hey, I didn't blog about those photos" and that's what ima be doing now. Sit back grab some popcorn (Tesco do amazing popcorn for £1, they really do taste like the cinema badboys) and ermm, enjoy?... oh and there are quite a few photo so I'll be doing a different blog post to each different one, as that would make the post a hell of a lot shorter... so I shall now show you a selection BOOM!
Kinda Rushed my photo shopping there as this was my last one to edit before time was up in the exam hehe.


So yasss, that's the first lots... and I should probably explain what the theme was. For our exam, we get given a list of words or subjects and we have to use that one word we selected and develop something with it, so mine was 'Shade' and I dug deep in the word and figured on doing something on hidden identity and secrets and BAM, got these. These were probably one of my favourites from the whole project and my teachers aswell as she wasn't expecting it haha, But yus, this is all To Be Continued... within the next few days

Suhada Nature

My Mum just came back from holiday a few weeks ago and brought me back some goodies to try out and test, now I have never heard of this foreign brand but I must say, this exfoliating scrub and the face mask (ESPECIALLY) is bloody incredibubble. I applied them the same day I got them and I really couldn't stop stroking my face - once my hands got tired, my legs got in the stroking action to (don't judge I'm a little strange) - 

I kinda love the little pot they come in as well, it's the wood that does it for me -  the wooden lid you dirty sausage. I some what love the same, it smells quite coconutty but a bit, I dunno.... nice.

I like the texture of the face mask and exfoliator as well as it's not like the normal cream/gel based exfoliator/face mask you get, these products are powdery substances, well the face mask is powdery, the exfoliator is bits of powdery/shredded bits... anyway, you get the product and combine with Luke-warm water until creamy then BAM mixture is ready.

Suhada Nature - Face Mask Rice-Bamboo
"Suhada Nature Rice-Bamboo face mask harnesses the power of nature to cleanse your skin and provide it with intensive and long-lasting care"

Suhada Nature Exfoliating Facial Scrub - Rice-Bamboo
"This facial scrub helps to remove dead skin cells, impurities, make-up and any excess oil. The exfoliating and massaging effect of the scrub stimulates and regenerates the skin. The special combination of rice germ oil and bamboo leaves your skin feeling beautifully soft" 
^
And I must agree, it (Suhada Nature Exfoliating Facial Scrub - Rice-Bamboo) does do wonders to my skin and makes it incredibly soft, however, I wouldn't recommend this to those who have oily skin, it says helps remove excess oils (liesss) but my t-zone (oily part of my face) felt very oily after using the exfoliator, it's very moisturising as well, but overall it is a rather dandy product, I do prefer the face mask however. Suhada just doesn't beat my trusty ST Ives exfoliator hehe.

I need to learn and improve on my reviewing skills, I find them fun so I shall do more but I never know the right words to use when doing them, hmmm, I hope you enjoyed this little post and until next time 

XOXO

Grazin'

This is, a Graze Box, and inside this wondrous, mysterious and somewhat very attractive box, we get FOOD, well, snacks. I first discovered Graze whilst opening my pretty pretty Company magazine and the little ad for the Grazin' company dropped out, so I was like hmmmmm, a free box of food, how can I say no to that. So I signed up a month ago and have been hooked by the scrumptious things this box gives me. But before they sent me one I had to rate what I'd like and what I didn't, making sure I don't receive anything I despise or pineapple due to allergies and from the rating I noticed how picky and fussy I was about food, oops. And so, a month and 5 boxes later, I decided to share my Graze experience and I might do a blog post of what I get weekly, if I'm bothered that is...

This was the content of my box this week and I must say, I really didn't like this box, compared to other boxes I got a few weeks ago, this was probably the worst. I only liked 1 thing from this box and could tolerate one other, the rest were just an insult to my taste buds. However, in the past I enjoyed the boxes I received, I mean it's not all going to include something that floats my boat and the best box was last weeks - Graze do really good FLAPJACKS and if they add in snazzy nuts in, it's a winning combination ooh and their Korean Chilli Crackers things A-MAZ-ING!
Excuse the pathetic-ness of the image thingy I tried to make, Photoshop was causing me a lot of misery with it loading EXTREMELY slow, so I had to go with the old fashioned root and use Paint, who knew the childhood 'hero' programme that kept me mentally sane during boring days (other than the Sims) actually came in handy after all. I do apologise for the horridness but you can always click to make it bigger surely ;)
In today's Graze box I got:
  • Rock The Casbah - pumpkin seeds, walnuts and dates (tolerated)
  • Love Mix - cherries, apricots and goji berries (I have no idea what goji berries are but I really didn't like this 'love mix thing')
  • Honeycomb Flapjacks - rustic rolled flapjack with honeycomb and milk chocolate (must i say....it was a WIN) 
  • and finally we have the worst of worst, just thinking about the taste makes me taste bud shiver Authentic Korai Chutney and Baked Curry Bits....never again.

Ooooh almost forgot to mention, with every box you receive, they give you one of these bad boys 
Don't know why but I always read sesame as semen hahaha
which I think is rather useful. And what's snazzier about the whole graze thing, is that it arrives through your letter box, making life a hell of a lot easier. I find it amusing like my postman is the magic graze fairy and when I wake up BAM, I got grazed ;)
So yasss, I hope you enjoyed my little Graze Box thing, you can find out more about the whole box thing on their website Graze.com oooh and if you want a free Box I got given a code and so will you when you register, so just enter this code:

and BAM just like that, I blogged about something informative, for once YAY! 
anyhow as I have officially finished all my exams and college (WOOO) I am off to celebrate, 
Happy weekend Chums 
xoxo
