The Monster In The Cupboard

‘Quick, just stuff it all in the cupboard!’ Jess ordered.

Harry had begun the mammoth and ritualistic task of cleaning just moments before the guests were due. The living room was a state, packed full of possessions and clutter that had long failed to find a permanent home. Harry spotted Amelie running up the garden path and swooped on his precious antique clock. Just in time.

What’s in there?’ Amelie threatened to reveal the mess.

Harry darted over, grabbed the furry hood of Jess’s coat and poked it through the tiny gap.

‘A monster!’

Amelie screamed and ran. Disaster averted.

Collection Primed & Ready Make Up Fixing Spray Matte - Review

I'm back!

Back with some beauty reviews that is, I have some fabulous products coming up that I am simply itching to share with you.

First up is the Collection Primed & Ready Make Up Fixing Spray Matte

Product claims  - 

Stay selfie ready with Primed & Ready make up fixing spray. The lightweight mist will help prolong make-up wear for a natural matte finish.

My thoughts 

I was actually blown away by how effective this fixing spray is and it is such good value!

Does exactly what it promises. You must close your eyes before spraying at a distance of 10cm. At first makeup looks fresh and dewy, that will be because it is damp ;) but then for the rest of the day your makeup will stay perfectly in place and as fresh as the minute you applied it. When I do the school run I normally have to reapply my cheek products and sometimes my foundation for the afternoon school run. I apply my makeup at 7.30am. The first time I used the Collection Primed & Ready Make Up Fixing Spray I was amazed, upon checking the mirror at 2.30pm, that my makeup was still exactly as I had applied it in the morning.

This is a revelation and I won't go a day without using it now!!
