A Perfect Family Day Out :)


Hey my beauties how are you all? I hope you had a brilliant weekend where-ever or whatever you were doing.  My weekend was super the best in a long time.  I went shopping for the day with my sister on friday which was brilliant and exhausting wow i forgot how much shopping takes out of you and driving!!!  You see my dad gave me his car to carsit for him for the weekend (i dont own a car anymore as its way to expensive but i am insured funny eh?) 
So i took advantage of having it :) Even if the weather wasnt exactly great for anything outdoors that doesnt stop us leaving the house :) 
Then i decided to take even more advantage to gather my BIG Little Family (if you dont already know i have 5 kiddies) and take them on a little adventure (we dont get to leave town too much as everything thats exciting is too far away and having no car we dont get far :( but still doesnt stop us making up our own fun 
Anyways i decided to take them to Tayto Park in Ashbourne 
Its basically where Tayto Crisps Factory is and they have a huge fun themed park beside it :) :) 
Well i decided to write this blog post telling you all especially my Irish followers and whoever is thinking of coming to Ireland on holidays and taking their family along about our experience at Tayto Park. 
Just look at my babies faces They tell the story :) 
They each got a little map in which i gave them and i told them they were boss in where to go to next it was a little adventure after all :) :) 
We first went to visit the animal yes they even have a mini zoo :) Loved it :) 
Even with the weather been dull, misty and drizzly it didnt stop us venturing the park we then came across and "Indian Park" in which had 6 Indian Tents is that what you call them ? anyways each tent had different fun things going on in them for instance one had face painting another had balloons and so on the boys in particular loved that
We then took a further adventure to see the park and i have to say everywhere we went we were in awww it started to rain at this stage but we didnt even notice we just had to keep going it was so much fun an of course the boys spotted this big hill they had to climb 
We then noticed that we could have a tour of the factory itself well now that was something i definately wanted to see and found really interesting but i love the way they done it they made it into a sort of tunnel thing with lots of lights and pictures and information and you could also peep into the factory itself where you could see them making the crisps the warehouse where the crisps were stored was huge i just wanted to break in and eat those crisps lol 
Well after seeing this we started to feel the hunger pangs so we decided to set off to have our picnic plus it was raining a little heavier so it was perfect timing :) There was outside picnic areas and also (which i was well impressed with) there was big tents about 4 set up with picnic tables inside to have something to eat :) not only that but there was a puppet show about to start which lasted about 30 mins and that seeminly happened every hour so if you had kiddies you could get them fed then allow them to sit and watch the puppet show while the adults ate their food :) 
My twinnies loved the puppet show that much they couldnt sit they had to run up to the man lol it was so funny their little faces was priceless to them it was their tv programmes in real life :) 
The rain eased off just in time and we headed on to the big playground to let them run round and have some more fun :) to be honest i wanted to join the boys on the bigger one it looked like so much fun but i couldnt :( as i had the little ones with me :( everybody say awwwwwwwww :) 
Please excuse the state of my hair by the way as i got caught in the rain one to many times lol 
I didnt get half the photos i wanted to of the whole playground there was one part that was free and then another part that you paid for and even at that it was cheap but it was more for the older ones :) :) there is so many activities to do you would be busy for hours :) 
another bonus is photos.  You can get some beautiful photos with beautiful backrounds theres little fountains and everything there 
Well time was flying so much it was nearly time to go home so we made one last stop into the shop/store/restraunt etc and it was lovely :) :) 
Along the way we met the famous Mr Tayto :) 
Well now i wont bore you anymore with photos lol as i always get finger happy when it comes to my camera i just cant help but capture every single moment.  As you can tell we all had an amazing day at Tayto park and i highly highly recommend you go there especially if you have a little family absolutely amazing and they have great deals for admission in to it you can actually purchase a yearly family ticket for only 140 euro which is amazing as you can bring 2 adults and 2 children on that ticket :) 
If you want more information about Tayto Park check out their website 
I hope you enjoyed my blog post today it was something a little different 
Have you been to Tayto Park yet 
I hope you are all well 
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Essence Fruity Blush Sorbet & Lip Balm Review


Hey my beauties how are you all doing today?
Its finally summer break for the kiddies from school boy does time fly 
Its already the 1st of July and that means 5 months counting til christmas!!
oh lordy Santa is going to need these 5 months just to make toys for my house lol 
Anyways this is Final review on the Essences Trend "Fruity" Edition items I purchased.  If you have not seen PART 1 and PART 2  I have already reviewed the nail polishes and eye sorbets :) 
Next up is this only and only blush in this edition and its the Fruity Blush Sorbet in "Smoothie Operator" :) :) 
The packaging of this blush is nothing amazing, its a simple plastic tub with a white lid.  Some would say its cheap looking but well it was cheap.  The tub will definitely keep the blush intact and fresh and clean so what more would we want in the packaging really :) 
We are getting 8.2g of blush for the total of 2.79 euro which in my eyes is more than a bargain :) 
As you can see by the photo this is certainly a "Sorbet" texture.  It feel more water based than oily which is a bonus :) The shade is a a beautiful rosey pink with gold specks and believe me the gold speck will only give a beautiful glow on the cheeks you will not notice gold specks.  The scent is AMAZING :) its hard to place the exact scent but all i can say is that it smells like strawberries and cream or strawberry smoothie mmmmmmmmmmmm its not overly sweet but boy its smells good enough to eat.  The scent doesnt last as strong you will notice it disappearing after 10 minutes but i have asked my kiddies while wearing it to give me a kiss on the cheek and my son replied to me "mmmmmm mammy you smell like berries" that was 5 hours after applying.  :) 
I found this blush lasted a good 5 to 6 hours without moving which is good enough for me for and everyday use :) :) even with it wearing off you can still notice it on your cheeks.  The colour payoff is very good and very buildable.  I apply with my finger tips as i find its the best way and easier.  It applies smoothly and you have enough time to blend it out to your liking either with your fingers or with a brush :).  I found the first layer to be sheer but once i applied a 2nd layer i was happy with that.  The shade gives a nice healthy flush look almost like a childs cheeks when they have been outside running a beautiful healthy rosey glow :) 
My overall opinion on this blush is IF YOU CAN GET IT BEFORE IT SELLS OUT GET IT!!!!! for less than 3 euro its a lovely blush and i have no faults whatsoever with it :) :) 
My beautiful daughter wanted to be a model wearing the blush so i did a little look on her she is also wearing it on her lips :) :) 
Next up is the Fruity Lip Balm 
There are 2 shades available in the Fruity Lip Balms and i decided i would just buy the one for now to see what they are like.  These lip balms cost 1.99 euro each for 3.9g and i got mine in shade 02 Very Cherry 
So the packaging looks like any normal lip balm packaging nothing different there 
But the product looks more lip a lipstick than a usual flat top lip balm. 
The fact that this balm is shaped lip a lipstick makes it easier than some balms to apply which is a bonus already.  Essence state that you will get a little tint from these when you apply it but to be honest there was no difference in shade to my lips but my lips are very pigmented on their own as it is so I concealed my lips and tried again just to see if it did and it does !!!! A very very sheer balm but does this balm actually keep your lips moisturised thats the big question.  The texture of this is brilliant its soft and creamy and does last a couple of hours before i have to apply again and I absolutely love the cherry scent each time I apply it :) :)  There was no point in me including a picture of the lip balm on my lips but i will included a swatch on my hand for you 
For less than 2 euro this is worth trying out but as its only a limited edition there is no point rushing out there to get it to me its not really any different to other lip balms out there from other brands 

Well thats it everyone thats my review for the day :) 
I really hope you enjoys my reviews on each of the Essence Fruity Edition 
Have you tried any of them 
What is your thoughts on them 
Until next time
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Essence Fruity Eye-shadow Sorbet review

Hey everyone how are you all doing 
Today is Part 2 of my Reviews on the Essence Trend Edition "Fruity" collection 
If you missed the first one 
So todays review is on the Essence Fruity Eye-shadow Sorbet's 
There is 3 shades to the collection :) and they cost 2.79 euro each and you are getting 4g in each jar  :) 
The packaging is so darn cute i have to admit when i seen them i thought nnawwwwww 
they are so small and cute :) :) i just had to have them :) 
They each come in a glass jar and different colour lid to represent what shade your buying as again like the nail polishes the shades are not written on them only numbered 
When you open them you will see a mousse like eyeshadow.  The only way i can describe the texture of them is that they are more of an over whipped mousse texture :)   Before you ask no they dont smell of anything lol i checked :) :) 
01 Peach Beauty:  This is a peachy shade with a slight pink undertone and contains gold shimmer very fine glitter.  If you are one who doesnt like shimmery eyeshadows these are not for you.  Ever though all these eyeshadows are moist this seems to more moist than the others. Which mean it leaves it more awkward to work with i found.  I had to apply a light layer of this let it dry and apply another layer before i seen even a light colour payoff with it.  When packed on it looks beautiful 
02 Banana Joe:   This is a lovely light yellowy gold shade :) This is a perfect highlight shade i actually like this one the most as its a great multi tasker the only thing i found is its a bit on the glittery side :) :) more than the rest :) but i still like it :) I have also used this to highlight the top of my cheek bones and boy does it make me glow :) :) I love it 
03 One Kiwi a Day:  A pale green with multi- coloured shimmer very fine shimmer.  This is such a pretty colour 
You are wondering whats the cons and pros at this stage of these well i will tell you now.  You most definately need to wear a primer with these eyeshadows for sure to make them last and not crease especially if you suffer with oily lids.  I have found using your finger to apply these is much easier than a brush its almost like applying another eye primer to your lid when using these.  You can wear them on their own for everyday wear or use them as a base for your eyeshadows but if you are using them as a base you will be turning your eyeshadows into shimmery eyeshadows :)  Another good thing about these is that they dry quickly on the lid but you do have enough time to fix the shadow up before they set but when they set THEY SET.  They are in now way waterproof or water resistant but they do last all day if used with a primer :).  You will find them sheer but build-able.  I just advise you dont build them up too much as put them to the test by applying 3 layers on my eyes by letting each layer dry before applying another layer and it ends up feeling like you have cement on you lids but that was just for my reference and experimental purposes that i layered 3 times lol you wont need that 

In all i am not disappointed in these products if you like fun shimmery eyeshadows you will like these and they are most definitely not a waste of money 
Have you tried these?
What is your thoughts on them 
I really hope you enjoyed this review 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Essence Limited Edition "Fruity" Nail Polish Review


cherry, apricot, kiwi – fruit, smoothies & co. are all the rage this spring and put us in the mood for a colorful summer. the new essence trend edition "fruity" is fruity-fresh and creamy-seductive as it presents itself with a powerful cocktail of colors containing strawberries, bananas, kiwis, oranges and berries of the forest in april 2012. wonderful sorbet colors and gentle textures for your eyes, lips and face guarantee high spirits in springtime! by Essence

Hey my beauties 
So i was in my local pharmacy collecting so items when i came across yet ANOTHER Limited Edition on the Essence Stand and sure well it was like Xmas all over again , as i was not expecting it at all :) 
Well then i couldnt just pass it and it was so cheap i just picked up the lot :) :) 
So obviously when i got home i started playing with my newbies straight away.  

I decided i will do the reviews on this seperate as there is a few items i found a little disappointing so i wanted to go a little into detail of why so stay tuned as i wont keep you waiting on the blog posts for too long :) 

Starting it the nail Polishes :) 

Dont these polishes look dam pretty :)  Each nail polish cost me 1.79 euro each.  
One thing is they dont have names or even numbers on them but they are named on the site 
Starting from left to right
01  One kiwi a day:  This certainly lives up to its name its a pretty green shade with little shimmers of green glitter in it 
02  Mashed Berries: This is a pretty berry pink shade with dark pink sparkles 
03  Very Cherry  Beautiful shade looks the same as mashed berries on the first coat but looks different more lighter than mashed berries after third coat
04  Banana Joe:  This does look like a banana shade in the bottle but to be honest i would go with lemon than banana :) this has no sparkle in it :) 
05  Peach Beauty:  This is my favourite shade out of the bunch i think.  Its a beautiful shade of peach and a perfect shade for the summer this has no sparkle in it either.  

What i found with these nail polishes is that they are very sheer which i think is the whole idea for summer time but to be honest if i was was applying nail polish i like it to be noticeable.  I found 2 coats of this nail polishes very sheer and i could still see my nail through it but after the 3rd it was fine.  I also found even with a top coat with my hands always been near water the nail polish chipped after 2 days :( boo.  
Even though the shades are lovely i found them way to much hard work especially on busy days.  They are good polishes if you want to wear with an outfit for a wedding or meeting or something like that but dont expect them to last longer than a week :) 
 I have swatches of two of these nail polishes and when i wear the others i will post them up in the future too but this is just to give you an idea of how they look on the nails :) 



Also available in this range is the Scented Top Coat 


Well now you can imagine me been sceptic of this as i have never heard of nail polish been scent Have you?  Well i needed a top coat anyway so i went ahead and bought it out of curiosity.  I had to open it there and  then to see could i get a scent and to be honest all i got a the typical nail polish scent :( but the fact it was cheap and i needed a top coat i went ahead and purchased it anyway :) 
When i applied it on my nails and let it dry i could get a slight scent of strawberries and cream :) :) i realised the top coat was in fact scented :) wow :) a great change from that strong nail polishy scent eh?  Now the scent doesnt last too long but its still a change :)   For less than 2 euro i am not going to complain about the lasting power of the scent as long as it protects my nail polish :) 
The top coat itself is good too it leaves a nice shine on the nail and does protect the polish from chipping after two coats.  I applied two coats of this due to my own personal preference :) 


So thats my out take on these polishes 
Have you tried them ??
What do you think of them 

Stay tuned for more reviews this range :) :) 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

The Body Shop New Body Mist in Satsuma Review

Hey My beauties how are you all :) :) 
In my last review i was telling you that since i couldnt make The Body Shop Event last month, they kindly sent me out 3 items to try out which was very kind and unexpected.  They understood why i couldnt make it and still sent me out the items again thank you Body Shop :) 
I have already reviewed one of the items i was sent which was the Moringa Beautifying Oil 
Next up is the New Body Shop Body Mists which were only launched this month :) :) There are 8 scents available Pink Grapefruit, Coconut, Strawberry, Satsuma, Mango, Shea, Moringa and Vanilla.  
From the last review i done you will all know that this is my very first time trying out Body Shop items and its pretty exciting for me as i have always as long as i can remember wanted to try out these items and all items from the Body Shop :) :) 
The Body Shop sent me out The Satsuma Body Mist 
The Packaging is a glass bottle which has a great sturdy spritzer that dispenses a nice amount of product :) You are getting 100mls for £7 which is less than 10 euro.   I actually think that price is very reasonable for what you are getting as this will last a long time :) 
While the sun is shining i find myself reaching for this all the time since i got it.  The Bottle is so summery looking and the scent is a great scent for the summer.  Now one or two spritz of this is more than enough as i find it very strong but not overly strong.  Its definitely smells of Oranges (Satsumas) I find the scent sweet and zingy all at the same time both work fantastic together.  The strength of the scent dies down after an hour but i found i could still smell it 6 hours later :) 
Even though this scent is beautiful it wouldnt be top of my favourite list but i would like to try other scents from this range as im sure i will find my favourite out of the 8 :) :) and i will let you all know dont worry.  
Oh the excitement of having this bottle of freshness on my dresser is making me smile as i type this review :) I love it :) This is making me want to go to Body Shop and go crazy spending in it (maybe its not a bad thing that the nearest store is 40 miles away from me haha)  If you like fresh summer scents i do recommend trying this body mist out.  I havent had the pleasure of smelling the other fragrances yet but i know by having this one they will all smell pure and near to the actual scent its named :) :) 
Oh i can only imagine what the strawberry one smells like mmmmmmmmmmm oh and the coconut and the mango mmmmmmmmmmmmm.  Sorry i was dreaming there Oh Body Shop please open a store near me so i can pop in every day and smell all your goodness.  :) 

So thats 2 products down one to go and so far 2 out of 2 have me extremely happy :) :) 
Have you tried The Body Shop Body Mists yet ?
What scent have you tried ?
I hope you enjoyed this review :)
Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter 


Disclaimer:  Body Shop sent me this product to test as part of their new launch.  I am in no way getting paid for this review and i am not obliged in any way to give a good review about it.  This is my utmost and honest opinion about it and i would never give a false review about any product.   I have no reason to do so. :) Thank you so much for reading.  I really hope you enjoyed it :)

The Body Shop Moringa Beautifying Oil Review

Hey my beauties I hope you are all well :) 
Little story for you all to begin my review today :) :) (you know how much i love chatting )
Well last month (May) i was invited to my first ever event "The Body Shop Event".  I was extremely excited but due personal reasons i ended up not been able to go at the end :( you can imagine how disappointed i was.  I was never asked to anything like this before and the one time i am asked to go i cant go ah well i wrote them an email apologising that i could not make it and how much i was looking forward to it.  I got an email back telling me that even though i couldnt make it they will sent me out some of the products the other blogger/vloggers got.  I was absolutely amazed and was not expecting that at all.  Thanks Body Shop :) :) 
I recieved 3 different items in which i will review separately as they all deserve a separate review in my eyes :) Now i must point out (shocking as this may be for you all) This is my 1st time trying anything from The Body Shop :O I know I know its bad but the the nearest Body Shop to me is 40-50 miles away from me.  I have read so many blog post by different people about products from the Body Shop and all of what i read was and sounded amazing which made me even more determined to go crazing in their store whenever i get to one.  So enough with the babbling :) 

One of the products i received was The Body Shop Moringa Beautifying Oil 
The New Beautifying Oil costs about 15 euro for 100ml :) There is 11 scents available and i recieved the Moringa scent.  The oil dry oil can be used on the body, face and hair.  Now at first i thought wowzer thats a little on the expensive side but i eventually changed my mind read on to find out more.....
The Body shop brought out this range only this summer and me been nosey had to do more research about this and what exactly was it going to do for me :) This is a little of what i found :) 
“First used in Ayurvedic medicine some 4,000 years ago, Moringa seed oil comes from the Moringa tree, which is also known as the “miracle tree” due to its wide variety of beneficial uses. The Moringa tree provides 7 times the Vitamin C in oranges, 4 times the calcium and 2 times the protein in milk, 4 times the Vitamin A in carrots and 3 times the potassium as bananas. Moringa seed oil contains high levels of oleic acid, which is a fatty acid that helps to restore the skin’s moisture levels, protects against drying and keeps the skin feeling soft and smooth. The oil was highly treasured by the ancient Roman, Greek, and Egyptian civilizations for use in protecting skin and making perfume. It was so good, that they even used it to create their own skin-smoothing product.”
Well now when i read this you can imagine the excitement coming out of me to the thought that all of this goodness was coming from one bottle :) :) 
Now as it says on the bottle that this can be used on the body, face and hair, i put it to the test straight away
HAIR:  Lately i have noticed my hair and scalp is drier than normal probably due to hair dye, hair products and blow drying and also the change of weather so thats where i put it to the test first.  Now after washing my hair instead of using my normal leaving in conditioner i put a little of the oil into my damp hair, let it dry naturally and without a shadow of doubt my hair looked like i had dipped it in a chip pan oh lordy it was flatter than flat and i just could not do a thing with it.  I actually tried it again and again just to give it a chance and the same thing happened my hair was lifeless (proof in my latest video you will see how boring my hair looked)
**** Since this review i was given a tip by someone who works with The Body Shop and they stated " if you put one or two drops through the ends of damp hair and blow dry you get a lovely sheen on the hair - it is very heavy when you put it in the root."  
BODY:  Now this is a different story altogether it works absolutely fine on my body.  I like to apply this just after jumping out of the shower when my skin is still damp.  Certain areas of my body has too been suffering with dryness especially my elbow joints and knee's.  My skin instantly felt smooth and soft and the aroma against my warm showered body was amazing :) :) Not only that my skin was glowing i instantly loved it and still do :)  Now obviously as its an oil it will take a little longer to dry but just do a little run around or dance to your favourite song by the time the song is over it will be dry hahaha
FACE:   I have normal to combination skin so in certain areas i do suffer a little dryness like around my mouth and nose area but i also suffer a little oiliness on my t-zone and the fact i have a fairly high forehead i wasnt really pushed about applying this to my whole face or you would end up seeing a reflection of you face from my forehead lol.  So i tried it only in the areas i was dry and it did work well .  I actually applied my makeup over this when it dried and my makeup did not budge so thumbs up for that :) 

I was amazed by this oil and the fact that it leaves my skin glowing is and extra bonus.  When this bottle runs out i will certainly buy more and will try it in a different scent 
I want to try the Coconut, shea, oh and the strawberry scent next :)   15 euro at the start seemed a bit steep to me but to be honest i have been using this constantly since i got it and there is only a small bit gone out of the bottle.  I see this lasting me a long time :) 

Until next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

BH Cosmetics 10 Color Professional Blush Palette Review

Hey my beauties
How are you all doing today ?
Wow our weather is seriously wintery lately there was even reports of a Tornado in Donegal a few weeks ago now thats scary!!! We never ever get that here in Ireland 
Anyways enough about that 
If you havent seen my latest video review on the BH Cosmetics 10 colour blush palette 
You can view it here 
I bought this the same week i bought the Jenni Rivera 36 color eyeshadow palette by BH Cosmetics 
As i said in my video i always wanted to try this palette and never got the chance to but it was selling for $11.87 which was 9 euro at the time and i grabbed it while i could.  10 Blushes for 9 euro which is less than 1 euro each was too hard to resist.  That offer is still on as i write this so if you are interest click here 
The packaging is pretty straight forward.  Its actually very familiar in size to the Jenni Rivera Palette which is again hand for travel.  There is no mirror included but if you are one who owns eyeshadow palette most of those palette include a mirror so thats not a major thing :)  On the back of the package gives you a full list of ingredients and the best before date.  
As you can see you are getting 10 good sized blushes.  They are a little smaller than a Mac blush.  You are getting a mixture of matte and shimmery blushes.  There is also cool and warm tones in this which is always handy.  Also in this you are getting a mixture a peaches, corals, pinks, and bronzy shades.  You are getting shades that will suit every skin tone .  
My Purpose of buying this palette was to see how it varies for different skin tones and how pigmented the blushes are as i want to build up my kit separate to my own collection.  Now from what i experienced with this palette some shades are not as pigmented as i thought they would be especially the first 5 shades but they are buildable.  Some shades would not suit anyone with medium to dark skintones.  Some would be too strong for someone with pale skintones but to me that suits me fine as my purpose in buying this is to use on myself and other people (family and friends for now)  If you wee buying this for yourself you might fine at least some of these blushes not suitable for you.  For the price you are paying for this you would not be loosing out on much as you would pay the same price for one blush with some brands as you would for this whole palette.  
Over i am pleased with my purchase .  The blushes are not like high end blushes but they do last 5- 7 hours before fading depending on how intense you have them on :) I find this palette great to play around with to see which shade suit and which shades you can mix to create your own shade :) I will definitely repurchase for my kit but i also want to hear from you guys if you have every tried blush palettes from other brands :) :) and see if there is any difference apart from the price.  I might even try one from a different brand myself and do a comparison post what you think 

I hope you enjoyed my review :) 
Have you tried this palette or something like this from another brand ?
Until next time 
Lots of love luck and laughter
