Cleanser Review: Liz Earle

 

Just discovered an amazing cleanser Liz Earle cleanse and polish which seems to be suitable for all skin types. I have used it on my sensitive skin they tends to react to different products. Its amazing to get a cleanser that smells nice that can be used on sensitive skin, as most companies just take the perfume out.  It removes ever last trace of make up. Its great for my kit as its a good all rounder, which means I can just carry one product instead of many weighing down my kit bag.

Cool Japanese Umbrella's from Tokyo Fashion Express NHK

Just watched today's Tokyo Fashion Express on NHK, where they talked about umbrella designs.
These umbrellas have special designed handles so they can be rested on a desk  and they also make them with anti rust technology and changeable covers on them.
A good way to look stylish in the rain with out your make up running.

Making fake blood from stuff in your cupboard

I realised I had run out a fake blood in my make up kit today and though I would share with you how to make it. Using goods out of the kitchen cupboard.

Above are the ingredients that I used

First pour a full bottle of toffee source into a empty plastic bottle. It's just normal source you would use on ice cream.



I then poured three quarters of the red food colouring into the toffee source. Next pour in two thirds of the yellow food colouring. But careful pouring in the green, as if you pour to much in you will have to start again as it will be to dark. So first just add one quarter of the bottle of green colouring.

Shake the mixture up as much as possible, this takes a while for it all to mix up thoroughly When it looks like it has all mixed up well, test the colour on your hand. This is best done in day light. If its to much of a bright red add another quarter of green. Re shake the mixture, and check the colour.
This is the colour of mine above
Depending on what you are using the blood for you my want to add corn flour to make it thicker.
