No idea why someone did this as they didn't post anything or seem to do anything at all while they were in control. Very very odd. Maybe it wasn't hacked at all actually, I don't know what the problem was as I can now get into it just fine.<br />
Anyway proper posts will resume soon!<br />
In other news I made a new twitter account specifically for blog and makeup stuff. Nothing really on it yet but I'll try and work out how to automatically tweet when I post and things like that. You can find and follow it here: https://twitter.com/funnyfacesplace <br />

So here are some mini reviews of two of the products I picked up in Superdrug.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Firstly the Wet Look Eyeliner. Oh boy do I love this eyeliner! It stays on amazingly. Here is a swatch freshly applied:<br />
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here it is about 8 hours later:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now maybe you think I'm some sort of filthy, unwashed degenerate...And you would be right! But I had washed my hands (yes with soap, God Mum!) at least 3 times while it was on my hand. Very impressive. Later on I had a bath and started scrubbing at it and it began to peel off neatly which was very satifying.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is on the eyes:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And again at the end of the day: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see that at the end of the day a little bit has flaked off in the inner corner of my eye and that's about it (it appears much less shiny but I believe that's the lighting) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While it does not actually look wet, it is nicely shiny and more patent looking than any other eyeliner I've tried. And it's wonderfully pigmented, appearing a nice solid black and not patchy at all. The applicator is one of my favourite kinds, a pointy felt style tip that's a little softer and more bendable than a 'felt tip' eyeliner, quite long and nicely tapered. I find these styles the easiest to use as they let me hug the lashline and control the thickness of the lines. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Velvet Lip Laquer is a liquid matte lipstick (the kind that goes on as a liquid and then dries and attaches yourself to your lips and becomes completely smudgeproof). I've tried quite a few of these products in different brands and these are my favourite. A problem I often get with these matte liquid lipsticks are that they don't go on quite opaque in one layer and to avoid it looking streaky I have to apply at least 2. But putting more layers on top just doesn't seem to work well in the formula and they end up sloughing off my lips. The MUA ones I've tried have all been opaque in one stroke and a little goes a long way. It dries a little slower than other brands but I find this helpful as it gives me more time to apply it evenly and neatly. And when it does dry it doesn't feel uncomfortable or dry my lips like other brands. It lasts about the same amount of time as other brands, which for me is basically all day...Until I eat. I find when eating the product either rubs off from the middle out or if it's anything remotely oily it sort of melts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Atomic is a bright, red based orange. Here it is on my lips:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
...Unfortunately it's a really bad photo. It is much brighter and more orange in real light.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's my face! (I'm also wearing one of the shades from the MUA Birthday palette and Makeup Revolution foundation in FB01 pink tones) Again the lips colour isn't really accurate: </div>

I was feeling a bit down at the weekend and as I was in town already (you should go see Mad Max! :P ) I wandered into Superdrug to cheer myself up a little. Now I know that shopping is a really bad remedy for feeling down but I hadn't treated myself to any makeup or frivolous stuff in a while and... Well unfortunately for me it works. And it's less destructive than vodka frenzy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway here's my haul:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
MUA had an offer where if you spent £8 you got a free limited edition
palette and they had a bunch of stuff I hadn't seen before. So I got a
highlighter (or 'Undress Your Skin Illuminating liquid glow' to give it it's full, ridiculously long name) in Pink shimmer, Whipped Velvet blush in Chichi, Wet Look eyeliner, Velvet lip Laquer in Atomic and the palette.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
NYC was on some offer, I think Buy 1 get 1 Half Price. So I picked up
two of these 'Smooch proof liquid lip stains' (which from swatching I thought they might be
like the Topshop Gloss Inks but they're not really :( ) in 'Faithful Coral' and ...I don't know the name of the red one. Stupidly the name is only written on the outer plastic wrap that seals the product. So as I've removed that to use it the name is gone forever! A 'Fancy Dotty' nail
polish in Greenwich Goddess and a peel off base coat which should be good for glitter
polishes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
GOSH was £2 off everything so I picked up a 'Xtreme Liquid Gel Eyeliner' (how can it be both liquid and gel at the same time? Answer me GOSH!) in the shade '007 Lavender'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally there was a very naughty impulse buy of some real techniques brushes. But they were over 50% off and my old ELF face brushes are slowly dying so..yeah. That's my excuse :P It's the 'Sculpting Set' with a Sculpting Brush, Fan Brush and Setting Brush. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll have some reviews of the MUA products coming up, is there anything else you'd like a review of? What naughty splurges have you had recently?</div>

On Sunday I went to see Mad Max: Fury Road (Quick review: It was absolutely brilliant. It was a fun, stupid action film but also one of the most feminist films I've seen in a long long time. I absolutely loved it.) and so here is my lip of the day.</div>

Showy is a bright, nearly neon, blue toned pink. The Matte balm formula is very nice. I don't find it actually moisturising as a lip balm is usually, however it feels very creamy and is not at all drying as a lotte of matte lip products can be. It glides on the lips very smoothly and have a smell of peppermint which I like. </div>

As well as the lipstick I'm wearing black eyeliner (It was a felt tip one, I think it was Boots no 7 but I'm not sure as I just grabbed it from a load of eyeliners) and Illamasqua Illuminator in Halcyon (sadly discontinued) on my eyelids. I was too lazy for anything else.</div>

So at the moment I'm not leaving my house much at all due to my chromic fatigue and social phobia and as i am lazy if I'm staying at home i tend to stay in my pyjamas as long as physically possible. So putting on a full face of makeup is just not gonna happen the vast majority of days. However I've decided that i shall start a project to wear a different lip product every day (or the majority of days, I'm not gonna pretend I'll manage it every day!). It's nice for my self esteem to make just a little effort with my appearance even when I'm just indoors alone. And it will give my ridiculously huge lipstick collection some well needed attention!</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">
So without further ado here is Lippie of the Day number 1: Topshop Gloss Ink in Smitten.</div>

Topshop has discontinued the Gloss Inks and I am really sad about it! I only have this one shade and i really wish I'd bought more when i had the chance. The formula is like a mix between a lip stain and a gloss. It's hard to explain. It's very thick and it sticks to your lips like a magnet, but it doesn't feel very sticky or wet. I love the look of lipstains but sometimes find them a bit drying and flat looking as they sink into my lips. As this is a hybrid it doesn't dry down like that and is very comfortable to wear. </div>

It's brilliantly adaptable, you can apply just a tiny bit as a flush of colour </div>

Smitten is a lovely bright raspberry pink with a small amoubt of subtle pink shimmer (you can only really see this in the photo where I'm wearing it thickly). The product has very good longevity, it fades a bit after eating/drinking but the colour does last all day or until I wipe it off. The packaging is sleek and quite classy looking black with a rubberised finish. It cost about a fiver i think but sadly as i said earlier you cannot get them anymore :(</div>

I am really, truly, amazingly grateful to anyone who is reading this. I know disappearing from my blog is really uncool and some lovely people have even sent me emails worrying about me and for that I am truly sorry.<br />
<br />
I never intended to abandon this blog. I just kept putting off posting because of writers block and it became more and more intimidating to come back. Then there were some changes in my life that have prevented or put me off blogging.<br />
<br />
Firstly my health problems have become worse and as a result physical appearance has changed quite a bit. I have put on quite a bit of weight due to chronic fatigue combined with a broken ankle stopping me from exercising. Also my dermatilomania has worsened and at some points I was picking my face so much it was covered in little wounds and I was ashamed to take photos of makeup when my face was so scabby.<br />
<br />
I have, very occaisionally, worked as a character/ugly model for the last couple of years. My social phobia is still extremely bad and so you'd think modelling would be the worst job ever but actually it's not bad. However most of the time I am still just not able to it and haven't worked in about a year.<br />
Here's the best thing I've been part of:<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZUHCmtg0L5I" width="560"></iframe><br />
<br />
(Did you spot me?)<br />
<br />
I also made a (terrible) music video for one of my favourite bands!<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ur93O0LRZh0" width="420"></iframe> <br />
<br />
I've also continued learning new crafts such as knitting and corsetry and will be starting a new blog regarding those sorts of things soon for anyone interested. There have also been some changes in my personal life but I'm not going to go into at this point. <br />
<br />
But through all this I've still been buying stupid amounts of makeup that I do not need, and I will show it all to you soon!<br />
<br />
Again thank you to anyone reading this, I hope I can make my extended absence up to you. <br />

Hi there. I've been recently getting really interested in trying some products that contain snail slime. It could of course be just a gimmick but apparently the mucus of a certain species' of snails contains loads of skin loving ingredients like allantoin and glycolic acid so I feel it could be worth a try. Now loads of people will probably find the idea of putting something that comes from a snail on your skin kind of disgusting, and that's fair enough, but I am not one of them. I bloody love snails and in fact have had their slime on my face before.</div>

Me around the age of 15/16 with some friends.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The problem is that I cannot tell if the slime is collected in a way that is cruelty-free. Obviously it is not vegan friendly and whether or not the actual product I might choose is cruelty-free depends on the company that makes it but I cannot work out if the actual slime is produced under cruel or painful conditions for the snail. I’ve been trying to research about it but I can’t really find a straight answer.
It seems to be basically cruelty-free, the snails aren’t killed or
seriously hurt but I’ve heard they ‘agitate’ the snails which could hurt
them a bit. Agitation isn't a very specific term, it could mean they are hurt or made uncomfortable but on the other hand it just might mean they are wiggled around a bit or something! If anyone knows more about it please, please let me know.</div>

Here
is a photo of the one time I wore makeup on my trip to the arctic
circle. There was absolutely no point in me glamming up as I was wearing
ridiculous amounts of layers that covered most of my face. My hair
looks awesome here though! All I'd done was blowdry it and it turned
into a brilliant big mane.</div>

So pretty much everyone in the UK is currently getting pissed off at our dismal weather, even me and I usually love winter! But there's too much of a good thing and now I'm bored of being cold and wet and walking through mud and there being no spring flowers! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway I tried to cheer myself up by dressing in my most Spring-ish outfit and then Claire and I went to Westfields and I ate too much food.</div>

I absolutely love my dress, the print is amazing, it fitted beautifully and I loved that it showed up my super sloping shoulders. The company, Bernie Dexter has a bunch of absolutely beautiful clothes. Unfortunately they've just gone and discontinued all plus sizes. No idea why, they just decided not to make them anymore. So obviously I won't be giving them any more of my fat money! >:(</div>

So you may have seen that google has decided to get rid of it's 'google reader' service. I am a bad bad blogger and don't fully understand what this means so I direct you to <a href="http://www.britishbeautyblogger.com/2013/03/bbb-housekeeping-post-google-reader-closing.html" target="_blank">these</a> <a href="http://www.musingsofamuse.com/2013/03/farewell-google-reader-youve-been-a-great-friend.html" target="_blank">posts</a> <a href="http://www.ladyofthelane.com/2013/03/goodbye-google-reader-connect.html" target="_blank">which</a> explain it better than I ever could.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Something I am genuinely baffled by is that I honestly don't know if I use google reader! To read the blogs I follow I just log into blogger and then the blogs are all listed there. Is that google reader? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry I'm a moron.</div>

Hi! Today you get a look at my terrible stubby fingernails. I've been trying out these new Textured Nail Effects polishes by Barry M and I really like 'em!</div>

These are pastel coloured polishes with a special gritty effect. The pink is called Kingsland Road, the yellow Station Road, the green Ridley Road and the blue is Atlantic Road.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They retail for £3.99 each but I picked them up at 2 for £6 from Superdrug (at the same time they were at 3 for 2 in Boots which would have saved me about 3p :P If you shop around you can usually find a deal on Barry M somewhere)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now have a look at them and please ignore my poor ravaged cuticles. I've posted lots of photos to try and show the textured effects.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't know if you can see in the pictures but the yellow has a slight shimmer to it, the others are matte.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The effect is very easy to apply, you just paint it on like any polish and the grit gets more pronounced as it dries. Applying it really feels no different from a regular polish either. These photos all show 2 coats of polish over a base coat (they were all nearly opaque in 1 but the extra coat made the grit more defined as well as making it completely opaque). Oddly I found that, though the bottle specifies to use one, the effect is much more pronounced if you don't use a base coat so in the future I probably won't bother with one. I've heard some people say these are a nightmare to remove but I didn't have a problem at all, it's much easier than glitter!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The feeling of these on the nails is an acquired taste. At first I felt really creeped out touching them but then I got a bit obsessed with it! It doesn't feel too gritty, just sort of bumpy, and luckilly they didn't catch on my tights at all. These lasted about 4-5 days before the started chipping, which was pretty good considering you can't really use top coat on them. Oddly the different colours had different rates of chipping, the yellow was the first to go, then green, then blue and finally pink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway I really like these. I love the easter-egg colours and the gritty texture takes them away from being too pastel and ice-creamy. £3.99 is a good price for a polish but like I said shop around. If you like the effect but are interested in other colours then in the US Milani have just released some (see swatches <a href="http://nouveaucheap.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/review-and-swatches-milani-limited.html" target="_blank">here</a> at Nouveau Cheap) or Nails Inc have a few but they are much more expensive (still might get the pretty grey one though). What do you think?</div>

Hullo. I've seen this doing the rounds recently, I think it started with the wonderful <a href="http://www.lipglossiping.com/2013/02/50-random-facts-about-me" target="_blank">Charlotte</a> of <a href="http://www.lipglossiping.com/" target="_blank">Lipglossiping</a>, and thought I'd join in because I love writing lists like this and can't find my camera lead so proper blog posts are delayed :P</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I must say it was very hard to think of 50 facts but here we go!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. I can't ride a bicycle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. I once won a karaoke competition while drunk singing This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both of Us by Sparks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. I can stretch all my fingers backwards at a right angle from my palms. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. I couldn't blow bubblegum bubbles until I was 18. Now I love doing it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5. My favourite colour is the pink of the pink snooker ball.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6. I've lived in London (specifically Merton) my whole life. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
7. I have an odd voice. People from other countries usually get that I'm English but other English people often think I'm foreign or at least not a Londoner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8. I have a fear of going underwater so am not a very strong swimmer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
9. I don't ever want children. I don't like them much and have a phobia of pregnancy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10. I absolutely love dancing. I'd like to take classes but I'm too shy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
11. I have a sort-of fear of rubbing flour and butter together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
12. I
took German for GCSE instead of French. I can't really speak it at all
anymore but I can sometimes translate it to English (I did this for
Claire with Herr Lipp in the League of Gentlemen).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
13. I collect Mickey Mouse ears and have about 30 pairs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

16. The first gig I went to was part of Blur's Parklife tour when I was about 6.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
17. I have a small heart shaped birthmark at the top of my left boob.</div>

18. I have a yo-yo weight problem. I've been as small as a 14 on top 12 on bottom and as big as a 22/20 and everywhere in between. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
19. When I was a small child I wanted to be a lady Farmer like Sophie from the Dick King Smith books. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
24. I spend a lot of time making up band names. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
25. I have inexplicably managed to become friends with members of 2 of my favourite bands. Now I need to do the same with Ron and Russell Mael!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
26. I'm in a band with one of them except we have only come up with our name. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
27. When I was little I had a speech impediment that I just grew out of. I couldn't say 'k' sounds so 'duck and snake' became 'dut and snate' or 'l' sounds so 'Lillian' came out like 'Yeeyan'. And I had a lisp.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
28. I really like computer games. Some of my favourites are Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy 9, The Sims, Just Dance, Skyrim, Arkham Asylum and various marios, sonics and Zeldas. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
31. I can quote practically the whole of Labyrinth off by heart.</div>

32. I have a small gap between my top front teeth. It used to be a lot bigger and I feel sad now it's so small.</div>

34. I'm a very fussy eater. I mainly like Italian food and sweets.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
35. I don't drink tea or coffee and rarely have fizzy drinks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
36. Possibly a result of this is that I'm a caffeine light weight. If I have a glass of Coke I won't be able to sleep for hours and hours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
37. I can kick 5 feet in the air. I know this from practicing kicking the top of Claire's head.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
38. I have severe social anxiety and depression and also general anxiety and agoraphobia. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
39. I don't like being in the dark but find it much better if I close my eyes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
40. I am a huge cry-baby. Everything makes me cry. I even cry when I am really angry which makes arguments awful as people think I'm doing it on purpose. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
41. I really like the idea of getting married and having a lovely wedding but I think I'd be too shy and anxious to walk and say my vows in front of people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
42. My Mum and Dad split up when I was a kid but never got divorced because they couldn't be bothered. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
43. I have an extreme hatred for spirit mediums such as Colin Fry. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
44. I have an obsession with David Bowie. I like doing an impression of him. At one point in my mind he was in the Bratz film. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
45. I love Batman but wasn't keen on the Christopher Nolan films (Dark Knight was OK because Heath Ledger was amazing). I love the Tim Burton films, the animated series and The Brave and the Bold best and read the graphic novels but can't get into the actual comic books. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
46. I am allergic to pineapple, Kiwi fruit and some sweet ingredient which is in Pear drops and green Jolly Ranchers. If I eat any of them I have breathing difficulties.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
47. As a child John Shuttleworth once threw me a chocolate bar as he feared I had missed my tea because I was watching his show.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
48. I've never watched a James Bond film. I plan to see some soon though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
49. I met a Possum while on holiday in Florida and I'm sure he smiled at me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
50. I was dropped on my head just hours after I was born. Luckilly it was only onto a bed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

A couple of days ago I went on a day course to learn all about the legalities of selling cosmetics in the EU. I found it very interesting and thought, even if you have no intention of ever selling makeup or toiletries, other people might at least like to know the effort brands go to to sell their products.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's so much information that this is not going to be comprehensive by any means but it will give you the basic idea of what's required. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After reading this I think it will make it clear why there are so few indie cosmetic companies operating in the EU! Firstly the costs are prohibitive and secondly there is a hell of a lot of paperwork involved! (and I'm not even going into trading standards or any of that irritating stuff as it's not specific for cosmetics). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OK so while you might think making cosmetics at home would have rules similar to making food products at home it isn't. With food the regulations mostly apply to you (needing to get certificates in hygiene and so on) with cosmetics it mainly applies to the safety of your products with less interest in you. You do however need to make a Good Manufacturing Policy (GMP) which contains information such as where you intend to make your products, how you will ensure proper cleanliness, how you will take efforts to keep supplier information (such as batch numbers of ingredients in case you come across a problem) and so on. This is an official document which you must sign as a promise to comply with what you've written. When Trading Standards check you out they will check out your work area and stuff but I think otherwise you're just trusted to be sanitary (it's in your best interests anyway, noone's going to want to buy from you if they find dirt/hair in your products!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />So as I said the main regulations are surrounding your products, and this is where it gets expensive! Every product you make needs to have the recipe assessed by a cosmetic chemist. Each go will be around £150 but that's an estimate. Now when I say every product I don't mean that if you have a line of moisturisers with the same recipe but different scents they will all have to be tested there's some leeway. You can get away with making moisturisers with different scents and slight changes in ingredients (such as different oils or butters used) as it will make little difference to the recipe anyway. But if you wanted to start a toiletry range then you'd need different assessments for your soaps, creams, scrubs, and so on. If your recipe is found to be unsafe (though it's unlikely if you've done your homework) then you will not get your money back and you will have to have it assessed again when you've made changes to the recipe. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Right so once you've have your formula safety assessed you might think you're good to go. Not so. If your chemist suggests it you'll have to supply samples of your product and send it for 'challenge testing'. This is likely to only be for products that contain water and so MUST have a preservstive (some girls on the course were basically shuddering at the idea of using a preservative because they were so focussed on the idea of being 'all-natural' but I don't understand that mindset. To me it's better to use something, even parabens, that may be slightly frowned upon as a naughty chemical substance that have an unpreserved product that will harbour bacteria, grow mould and possibly harm your health). Challenge testing involves the technicians messing with your product, exposing it to nasty things and testing the bacteria levels to see if your preservative is strong enough. This will take about 6 weeks and costs around £200 a pop. And again if it doesn't pass then you have to go through it all again. Yay! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That luckily is where the product testing ends but there's still a lot of rules to follow. Labeling is a huge thing with very strict rules to follow. You also need to keep a document called a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for EVERY ingredient you use. Luckily you can find the MSDS's for most things by googling or you ask your suppliers for them. With fragrance oils though you MUST get them from your supplier because they change dramatically. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And finally for each batch of product you make you need to keep a manufacturing log including the weights, date of manufacturer, method of manufacturer, batch number and so on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />Phew! There's more to it then what I've described of course but that's the basics and you can see how rigid and difficult they sound. However I do actually think this is a better system then they have overseas because it really shows that you can trust the sellers and their products so we have far fewer Glittersniffer type horrors over here. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you found that interesting. If not then here's a picture by way of apology: </div>

<br />The True Colour lipsticks come in two varieties: Sheen and Matte currently I only have one Sheen. The Matte ones are completely opaque and brilliantly matte but are quite dry which makes them harder to apply. On the lips they're slightly drying but not badly so, they look great (I love matte lipsticks) and last for absolutely ages. They're really stuck on the lips so last through eating and drinking with no problems. The Sheen one is slightly less opaque but still very pigmented and has a lot more 'slip' which makes it easier to apply and it's not at all drying, however it doesn't last as long. It still stays put for a good while but will fade away especially through eating and drinking. <br /><br />Anyway, swatches:<br />
'Amped' a bright, blue-based pink (Matte):<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Gorgeous aren't they all? At the moment I have no money for makeup (thanks in part to the Illamasqua sale that just ended) but when I do that green gloss is MINE!</div>

The last photo shows one of the signature looks of the collection, the speckled eye. I absolutely loved this idea. It's so simple and yet I don't remember having seen it done anywhere before! It reminds me of a feather or snow. Both good things!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br />So anyway I had a go at recreating the look and I absolutely love it on me!</div>

OK I think I went a bit overboard on the white but I think it looks great and I felt absolutely gorgeous!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was dead easy to do too. I think I might try adding some pink or other colour ala <a href="http://eyelinerandspraypaint.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/imperfection-illamasqua-inspired-dotted.html" target="_blank">Robyn</a>. Will you be trying this look? What do you think of the campaign images?</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Thursday it was the Illamasqua blogger event for their S/S13 collection 'I'm Perfection' and I was invited. After a lot of stress and fear I managed to get over my nerves (with the help of a cheeky drink) and set off to it feeling very excited and proud of myself. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately I am an idiot and trusted technology.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You see the venue for the event was at a gallery that I've never been to but instead of printing myself out a nice map I figured that I would just use the maps feature on my phone to guide me there. Then, while I was on the tube, my phone just stopped working. I don't know what the hell was wrong with it but it just would not turn on. It had a full battery when I left the house so it hadn't just run out of juice. It's working again now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway I had no way to navigate my way to the venue so I had to just turn around and go home again .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To add insult to injury I was so flustered and upset by it I forgot I had to leave a station to touch out my oyster card, so when I got home TFL charged me about £15 for my failed journey :(</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The new collection looks amazing and I am so so upset I didn't make it to the event.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.mizzworthy.com/2013/01/illamasqua-imperfection/" target="_blank">Here's</a> a <a href="http://www.britishbeautyblogger.com/2013/01/illamasqua-imperfection.html" target="_blank">few</a> <a href="http://www.camiloveskiwi.com/2013/01/illamasqua-ss12-imperfection.html" target="_blank">posts</a> I've found that show off the collection beautifully so you can have a look if you haven't seen yet yourself. I am drooling over the Cadburys Mini Egg style nail polishes, that bright pink lipstick and the leaf green gloss! And once again the collection images are stunningly beautiful and the message behind the campaign is moving.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stupid Lillian!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway here I am in my gladrags before I left for the event. I looked awesome as well! Grumble grumble.</div>

Yesterday I went to see Rocky Horror for a friends Birthday. It was a very impromptu thing but I had to dress up because I will dress up at the drop of the hat. As I had only a couple of days notice I was stuck for what I could wear but then my friend Pippa suggested I went as Columbia in her pjs. Perfect! An excuse to leave the house in pyjamas is always good in my book! So I nicked a pair of my Mum's (which apparently are about 40 years old and belong to an ex-boyfriend) and grabbed a pair of Mouse ears from my collection and I was done. </div>

The show was good but had the weirdest (possibly most typically English) version of the Time-Warp ever. The audience were hilarious, they got up to dance in the chorus and then sat down in every verse then get up again in the chorus. It was ridiculous! But very very funny.</div>

So as some people may remember I'm doing a home study course to learn to make my own makeup. It's taking me ages because, instead of just following the recipes included in the course, I'm trying to perfect my formulas and make loads of different colours of each product. Anyway I thought I'd share some of the lip products I've made so far for my imaginary makeup line Conjurers Cosmetics, some are successes, some are failures. What do you think?</div>

Bright bright bright matte pink. This was a big success for me as I absolutely love the colour and I worked out how to make a really matte lipstick. However it's coloured with cosmetic dyes which means it stains your lips pink:</div>

Hullo. Yesterday my friends took me out for some belated Birthday drinks. I decided to do a sort of monochrome coral look based off a picture in the Nars Makeup Your Mind book. This consisted of a lot of blush heading up to my temples and the same colour on my eyes.</div>

The photos aren't great because my camera is broken and so I used my phone. It takes great photos in natural light but at night they look a bit weird. Still you get the basic idea of the makeup.</div>

And finally I had glittery nail polish on my toes the other day and decided to use the silver-foil trick to remove it. I just thought it looked quite hilarious.</div>

My keyb0ard has br0ken. Guess which key? :P It's very irritating s0 I've 0rdered a wh0le new lapt0p keyb0ard. Let's h0pe I can install it pr0perly! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway A while back I b0ught this f0undati0n testing kit fr0m Sleek. It c0mes in 6 different types (Fair/Light, Light, Light/medium, Medium, Medium/Dark and Dark) I g0t the lightest which is Fair/Light. Each kit c0mes with 5 mini tubes 0f f0undati0n which c0ntain quite a gener0us am0unt 0f pr0duct. I've g0t at least 3 full-face applicati0ns fr0m each tube. They c0st £2.99. Anyway the p0int 0f these is t0 find 0ut which shade y0u are (Sleek makes a t0nne 0f shades but n0t all 0f them are available in sh0ps s0 y0u have t0 0rder them 0nline). This p0st is just t0 sh0w what these different shades l00k like 0n me, t0 help if y0u have a similar skint0ne t0 mine. It's n0t a pr0per review 0f the f0undati0n f0rmular, that'll c0me s00n :)</div>

It's quite hard t0 actually tell the difference, especially as the light kept changing (damn sun!) But Shell and White R0se are t00 dark and yell0w f0r me. Linen, 0atmeal and 0yster are all pretty g00d but Linen is the cl0sest (even th0ugh it l00ks t00 pale when swatched 0n my jawline) </div>

Happy New Year to everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the moment I'm feeling ill so it seems like my New Years Eve will be spent watching Batman The Brave and the Bold...Not that that's a bad thing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway I hope everyone has a wonderful 2013. I generally don't make resolutions but this year I have a few.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Be a better blogger.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seriously I am aware I have been pathetic this year. I'm not going to go into the reasons why because, while I think most of my excuses are pretty valid, they are still excuses and I'm not happy with how I've been doing. I've started already by re-starting my hosiery blog <a href="http://funnyfacelovelylegs.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Funny Face Lovely Legs</a> so if you like tights and things please check it out :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Learn more about making makeup! This one is gonna be fun! While I've got some things pretty much nailed down (eyeshadows, lip balms, lipsticks and other easy-ish things) there's lots more to learn! When I can afford the ingredients I'm going to start making things like gel and liquid eyeliners, mascaras, cream eyeshadows and so on. I've also booked myself into some courses next month to learn about making soap and body products and finally about the legistration and selling of cosmetics in the UK.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Try to stop worrying so much. This one is much easier said than done as I have severe problems with anxiety that I can't just get rid of instantly but I'm going to at least try and be easier on myself about things. For instance tonight I was meant to be going to a friends house to celebrate New Years but I'm feeling too sick. I feel really guilty about letting people down but it's something that can't be helped so I'm trying my best to just relax and not beat myself up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also want to lose weight but that's not a resolution as it's not something I think is important, I just want to fit into my lovely clothes again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway eat, drink and be merry tonight! Tell me what resolutions you're making, if any.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
