    I think you spend so long analysing your face you see issues where no one else would! You're a stunning girl naturally, if you look at anything long enough you will start to see flaws x

    Aw thanks Dinah! I know half my skin problems are down to my own vanity, but if I can I'ma fix them (as long as it doesn't mean surgery! Nu-uh! Nevahh!) The problems under my eyes aren't that major, but my Sister started having problems with the skin under her eyes (bags ect) when she was my age and left it, and now she struggles so much with getting them covered/lightened. So I thought I best start at the first signs - and that was about a month ago.

    I'll let you know how I get on with them though Flower. I used the 2-in-1 one when I got home and it was weird, smelt of lemons. But we'll see how it goes.

    Awww Percy is so cute! I'd love a pug, they're so ugly but in a nice way!

    I bought some St Moritz stuff last year but I was too chicken to try it! Since I'm so pale I'm wary of using fake tan as I don't want to look tangoed!

    Ended up going to both shops yesterday Cinny and was despairing of the human race by the time I got out :angry: For info, St Moritz is available in both, Airbrush legs in B&M only. I bought it and had a little go of it on my arm before I got in the shower this morning - it's a bit like foundation, bit odd. Might stick to pale and interesting!

    Augh, I need to start using eye cream I think :o It's cos I smile too much!

    Percy's cute but a total pain. Likes biting everything. Even my laptop :undecided He seems to be mixing in well, my dog has taken a shine to him so they've been playing but the rest are still not 100% sure. My Sisters other dog (Charlie) pretends he doesn't like him, but when I was pupping sitting last night I went to feed Pippin then came back to find them snuggling :D As soon as everyone else came home Charlie started growling at him again.

    Sounds like we're all really pale here! :D I normally use gradual tans as I'm very warey with being so pale there's a big chance I'll go orange but used St Mortiz last year as Summer suddenly came around and I hadn't had chance to build a little glow up :o The airbrush thingy sounds interesting though Tete!

    Almost finished work for today. Keep on thinking it's Friday! Anyways, not much to do when I get home. I'm puppy sitting again, but need to change my bedding, clean my room ect so that should be interesting. *rolly-eyes* OH is over tonight and says we're having a take out so I won't complain (he's paying anyways!)

    Payday :j Still no sign of the Quidco monies, checked my account and it still says to be paid today so I guess I'll just have to hang tight on that one.

    ISA: £700/£AMAP
    Holiday Account: £[STRIKE]130[/STRIKE]140/£AMAP
    Car Account: £[STRIKE]80[/STRIKE]90/£ASAP
    iPod Touch: £[STRIKE]22.05[/STRIKE]32.50/£250
    'Big Costs' Account: £[STRIKE]10.05[/STRIKE]20.05/£AMAP

    Also paid £12.21 into my mobile account so that's my May DD covered! Ta-flippin-daa :D

    Have £100 for the week, like normals. Not 100% sure of plans for tomorrow though, but it shouldn't be a spendy weekend as I'm puppy sitting Sunday so will be stuck at home after my driving lesson.

    Ordered my FitFlops yesterday. Got them for £34.99 but £3.50 back via Quidco so really only £31.49. Already had an email saying they've been sent out (yesterday evening) so might get them today/Saturday. After a year of wantings, I got me some!

    And they're yellow ;)

    Going to the Drs this afternoon, but managed to get a lift up there off my Sister so save on a Taxi. Means going with her while she has her tattoo finished but it's in a little hippy shop so I can have a wander while she gets attacked with needlez.

    Watched the first half of Avatar last night. Maybe I need to watch it all but I really don't get the hype so far. Watching the last half tonight though.. yay :undecided

    Nah I wasn't THAT impressed with Avatar either, it was OK but ... I watched the Squid and the Whale this week which was fantastic and went to see ONdine last night which was also lovely, I want to be a Selkie :)

    Think it's gonna rain tomorrow anyway Cinny, so you're best off snuggled inside with Percy et al.

    Those accounts are flying up aren't they?! :D

    I nodded off during Avatar in the cinema, I didn't dare tell OH because he was raving about it! It was impressive in 3D but I don't really fancy sitting down and watching it at home. Not wanting to sound totally geeky but it doesn't even seem worth it watching it on DVD on a non-HD TV since it's all about the colours and the detail that you can only really see on Bluray. Damn OH for turning me into a nerd!

    I think we're going to see Iron Man 2 tomorrow, I'm very excited as a) I loved Iron Man and 2) I :heartpuls Robert Downey Jr!
