#BlogLife1135 - Back up

Good afternoony folks. How are you? I had a long glorious sleep last night.

I woke up late but my body needed it and my back feels so much better with the binaural beats on all day and trying to not over exert myself.

(I think I played it for 2 days straight and it was one of those... Is it working? I don't feel better..)

But obviously it was, because I don't take painkillers. I haven't used heat much, so what else could have helped?

Actually while it's early I have the blankie on low to boost the recuperation process and the fan is on too.

It's not completely healed but at least now, while I'm bending, I'm not screaming or cursing from the sharp pains..

I'm going to order groceries for tomorrow as it's over a week and I need to stock up.

Hopefully G will deliver in bags and then less straining my back but we shall see..

I've finished Asda's Face Facts cleanser... Umm I liked the orangey appearance, the fruity scent, the lightness..

But it didn't help with the breakouts. It was preventative and I still have dry patches on my face so I wouldn't buy it again.

I don't recommend it for combination skin. I think yesterday I started on the Garnier Vitamin C clarifying wash £3.50.

50p less and it foams nicely. Transparent appearance so a lil boring.

I don't think it's scented, another minus point but it is refreshing to use.

Parts of my face are still dry. I think my eye drops are the cause, it runs down my face and the sides are dry.

I'll be honest. I keep forgetting to moisturise, so I have to do that more.

I'm speculating but I think the Garnier will perform better but it's too early to say anymore.

Hopefully in a few weeks I'll remember to give an update. I'm so glad the weather is presently mild, my back is loving the heat.

I don't even want to get up for water or food but oof it's nearly 2pm, so I definitely should..

At some point, I have to pluck my brows also. It slips out of my mind, gosh they must be a fright..

#BlogLife1087 - Heatwave or pmt making me nauseated

I've just finished the Simple face wash that dried out my skin and now I am onto the Garnier Vitamin C cleanser.

That lasted me just over a month.

Umm, it's not what I thought it would be. There is no scent sadly, I expected a lovely citrus, but nothing.

I also assumed it would be a gel but no, it's a yellow thickish cream, ok, let's go with it..

I put it on the face brush and spun it, it didn't lather and sat heavy on my skin, maybe my face or the brush wasn't wet enough?

But when I rinsed it off, easilyish enough, my face felt deeply cleaned and really soft.

It's only the first use and I don't need a moisturiser but I applied it anyway and that felt extra refreshing.

Hmm it does not play nicely with the face brush, I have to stop using it with it.

It keeps going into my eyes, and they are already sensitive so I am better off mixing it with water, softening it and then scrubbing my face with it by hand.

I cannot afford to damage my eyes before I put my contact lenses on or even while they are in.

What do I now, which isn't ideal, is to apply directly on my face and then use the face brush afterwards.

It's not really satisfying that way but sometimes it does lather up, the end result is the same, soft smooth skin.

A few faint pimples but I think the dryness has gone, although the cause, might be from something else I was using.....

We shall see how long it lasts and if I still like it, later on.. Now what to have for brekkie/lunchy?

That triangle baklava/baklawa might be my favourite, lil syrupy, very nutty mush flavour.

Ahh the plain one, the second one I tried was a lil dry, so finally a flaw, but it's a nice selection for the price.

I'm starting to think it's worth the £2.50. I'm sure when it was introduced it was double that price, maybe no-one bought, so they lowered it and it's going down like hotcakes now..

I feel like I'm getting more messages on 7 Cups, now that I've written I'm not taking on chats.... What??

I even had one today, that I already politely responded to with, sorry I'm not available and they ignored me and said Hi, again...

WTF!! I hate rude people! How do you not respect someone being nice and well mannered to you?

I didn't respond. If you want to be a fool to me, I'll treat you the same way!

Talking of fools, I blocked P, 3ish days of being ghosted, I think that was generous, for me to wait this long.

It might not seem long but feels like an eternity waiting. Meh..

I gave chances but for whatever reasons he continued to ignore me, so be it.
