Ohh! Which band? One of my favourites placed at Reading 2009 and have been around for AGES and are huge in the US. If it is the same band then I will get tickets beg, borrow or steal!
New Found Glory
Probably worth checking around on the ticket sites even if its a different band as I think a lot of the US bands are doing an kind of UK mini tour before the festivals later in the year....
That's how I ended up seeing Brand New twice back in '09 (not them is it?) - booked tickets to see them in Birmingham and then after that they announced they were playing at Reading too..
Have INs
3 perfume samples - all the same perfume though. Freebie from internet I ordered months back. Stupid thing is I ordered a different perfume sample before the same company before and these new fragrances smell exactly the same....Not really that nice. Bit kind of like lavander

I always use the Schwarzkopf Live Colour XXL - they do loads of shades of red. I tend to either go for either Red Passion for a brighter red or Cyber Purple for a darker one....
I tried cyber purple a few years ago and it came out really really bright purple. Like a cadbury's chocolate wrapper colour! It faded to a much more subtle dark red after a couple of weeks but not the best colour to use if you don't want to risk temporary purpleheadedness
Personally I liked the purple too but it did look a bit OTT
There. That's newly died (or maybe washed once or twice) on the right and after about a month on the left.
And I know it's mega vain but it's blacked out cause I didn't like my face in the pic
I think i'm going red haired again soonAlmost decided
I always just go for whatever brand's on offer though!

*waves* Afternoon All
Had a lovely day yesterday with OH's family and it was great to see his brother again even if it was just a flying visit. The dogs didn't wreck the house - which was a bonus
One UU - Paris Hilton 'Fairy Dust' EDP. WIBA? At a good priceI think this is possibly the first ever perfume I've actually finished
I do like it but very rarely buy perfumes. OH has taken the empty bottle off me so he can 'replace it' but he was a bit drunk so probably won't remember :rotfl:
Hugs for all :A
ETA: I've just been accepted for a handcream trial with clixresearch. I haven't had a trial off them for ages but I was lucky as I got the email within 10 minutes of it being sent :T0 -

August 18th - Cardiff Solus (Tickets £15 + £2 booking fee)
August 21st - Birmingham 02
August 22nd - Glasgow The Garage
August 23rd - London Electric Ballroom
August 24th - Brighton Concorde
Not sure if there are many tickets left but it seems some sites are selling them even though advertised as sold out elsewhere. See Tickets said the one for Cardiff was Sold out but TicketLine UK (cardiff based) had tickets left.
Might be best to check direct with the venue if no luck onlineMarzipanFish wrote: »I tried cyber purple a few years ago and it came out really really bright purple.

Whenever I dye mine with it, it comes out reddy - more like your pic on the left but saying that my hair never seems to change colour no matter what colour I dye it. It never comes out like it does on the boxMFW 2020 #111 Offset Balance £69,394.80/ £69,595.11

Flying visit before I'm spotted, OPI on sale at Lena White (saw it on the Grabbit board). Personally not a huge OPI fan after trying the minis, but v tempted by the Serena Duo (though I do have a Barry M black shatter already). I should be ok to resist. Almost gave in to L'Occitane yesterday though :eek:No buying unnecessary toiletries/makeup in May: Unnecessary spend £17.60
