#BlogLife680 - Precision tweezers - Unhelpful beauty tool

I can't remember when I bought the precision tweezers and if I did a comprehensive review but now that a lot of time has passed and I've just plucked, I can give an update.

They are the worst tools ever, why they are called Precision, is beyond me?!

It seems like a thicker surface which is not helpful to grip the tiny thin hairs and it misses half the time, so I spend longer, gripping them tightly, which for someone with chronic pain issues is not beneficial at all.

I just browsed and want to go back to my simple no-fuss plain original tweezers, which seem like they have a longer mouth bit and are slimmer so more effective overall.

I saw a cheap one for £1.75 which seems like my previous one which I really miss.

I've got a blunt one, which I think was Precision as well and a newer sharper one which is just useless and awful.

If the new one is the right fit, I will get a second backup and bin these other ones as I can't stand using something unproductive.

The quest for a lip balm continues and I saw an interesting offer, 2x £2 Yash herbal strawberry lip balm tubes.

I've not heard of this make but it says it is for chapped lips and I like that it is a squeezable version so I don't have to get my fingers soiled.

Plus strawberry is a great scent, it ticks all the boxes and the price is extremely cheap. It's 10g and I'll let you know how it works out when it arrives.

I just came back from the Market and picked up some drinks, it's surprisingly boiling outside, I had a coat on as they predicted rain and were wrong as usual.

I feel really dizzy and sicky today. As well as pmt hormones, I feel I have caught a chill, I feel totally off, even though I had a mini burst of energy and did my lil sexy strut today.

Now I just wanna lay down and sleep but first lunch, which is pizza later.

Oh an acquaintance of mine, which I didn't recognise as she looked youthful in her hijab (head scarf covering), was telling me that everyone is making comments, regarding it.

Ugh that disgusted me, to me she looks youthful and beautiful and I told her not to pay any attention, which she isn't.

But she really looked great. I've seen her wear a scarf before, but I guess she looked more conservative, anyway it suited her.

She relished the compliments and I said for me, people always have an opinion when I change my hair and I don't really care what they think, it's nobody else's business!

I was gonna mention that they commented on my weight also but it didn't really need to be added.

#BlogLife548 - Does he love foodies....?

Yesterday in the UK it was a Bank Holiday and the most I did was come up with a title.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue relaxing or be productive and doing nothing was far too relaxing, so that's what I opted for.

I've got to pay some bills, moisturise my face and watch the season finale of The Mentalist.

I wasn't sure if I wanted Patrick and Teresa to get together. I always rooted for Grace and Wayne though.

Even Lisbon's beau seemed decent but he moved too fast. He acted a a tad bit controlling with the movies, even though she wasn't into classics, instead of finding a genre they would both love.

Why didn't they give Cho a permanent love interest?? I hate when one character doesn't get a happy wrapped up storyline.

Why did Vega have to die? I knew he would crack after that. I think he was putting off having another partner because he missed Rigsby too much.

I loved their banter together. I wonder if they will both be in the finale. Would be nice if that happened.

I have some favourite places that I order from regularly because of the customer service and the quality.

But one in particular always gives me extras. I'm starting to think, either I'm being foodily wooed or they are just messing with their customers and it's a private joke.

Hmm how can we screw with their heads today...... Let's add a blender to the bag???

But seriously, so far it has been extra drinks, Sprite, orange juice, two whole cartons of milk..

And the latest craziness is..... A whole jar of Branston pickle. I'm not even sure what that is.

Oh I just googly woogled and it's a relish. Pickle, chutney, ketchup and brown sauce.

Hmm. I haven't tried it yet and I'm not sure it appeals. It's supposed to be on the sweet side.

Why brown sauce and ketchup? I suppose it might enhance toasties...

I wonder if brown sauce is bbqy? I'm not sure if I have tried that. I don't think I want too.

But isn't that strange? They could have got a mini sauce tub and added a bit but no, they threw in the whole jar.

Did they go nuts with the inventory and order excess and just randomly give clients bonuses??

One day I will go in and ask, what the deal is haha.

When I was shopping for the tweezers, it was making me laugh that now they all seem to be labelled as professional.

It's not a surgical tool, I just want to pluck my eyebrows yeesh haha.
