Sleek Lip 4 Lipstick Palette- Showgirl

Description:
"Put your dancing shoes on and don’t forget to coat lips with Lip⁴ in Show Girl! It’s the ultimate party girl palette with pout popping hues of pink in Lola, Vegas, Jewel and Dancer in matte, gloss and satin finishes for a pout performance no one will forget"

I know a post about make-up *shock horror*. But lately I've developed a thing for lipsticks- I have 3 MAC lipsticks, 2 Sleek ones and 3 by MUA. I really wanted to purchase this palette - so I did, it did help that Superdrug were having a 3 for 2 offer on all make up and cosmetics. On to the pictures:




It was £8.99 from Superdrug or you can buy from sleekmakeup.com. I do find the matte colours (there are two) a little bit drying so I would combine them with a lipgloss. I can't see myself purchasing any more because I want to purchase 2 MAC lipsticks in July...only so many lipsticks I need!

Hair Issues!

I just don't know what to do with my hair when I take these braids out. Here is what I'm currently dealing with:


Yep, not pretty they have got so frizzy and I think it's because I go to the gym 2-3x a week. Soo my thing with hair is I cannot just keep one style. I get soo bored! That's why I love the versatility of wigs. I have one wig left now and it is this one (I sold the other 2 I had). It's kind of nice because I feel like I can start a fresh. Here are my options:
1) Natural- wear hairstyles like this
2) Make a full closure wig with Virgin Brazilian Straight hair like here
3) Make a U part wig with Kinky Straight hair (easy to blend) like here (hair is $300 eek!)
4) Make a U part wig with Afro curly hair (easy to blend) or kinky curly hair from here (hair is $300 eek!)

London Girly Monthly Rundown

I have been buying…a few things from Ghana which I love! Interested? Watch below :)





I have been eating at…Nandos - yes as usual! Half a chicken, sweet potato mash (which I tried for the first time and loved!), pitta and halloumi cheese (standard). I was naughty and had a chocolate cheesecake eek!


I have visited…Ghana...again if you are interested watch my vlog below:






Track of the month...I'm going to choose a track by Burna Boy. A fairly new artist, but I like him




Next month I’m looking forward to…sunshine...please WITH heat!

Next month I hope to splash some cash on…I'm not sure why I've got a thing for neon these days. But I really want a neon skirt like this. And maybe a neon beanie. Also I've got a hankering for some new hair (I know it's bad!), my hair is currently on sale here.

I got braids!

Yep, I got my braids done recently in Ghana, it cost 20 cedis (7 pounds, $10).

I used 2 packs of X pressions hair (which is what I always use), colour 1B. I was hesitant to get my hair done because I have worked hard to get my natural hair to a good state of health (and growth!). It was okay in the end, although I think it is obvious that more hairdressers need to learn how to care for natural hair rather than "do" hair (this was my first time to a hairdresser since August 2011). I hope to have it in for at least 5 weeks.
I recently uploaded my second part of my Ghana vlog, if you want to check it click here
