  The Further are a newly made band who can easily be compared to bands like The Smiths,  Suede, Manic Street Preachers etc. The band is made up of Peter Backler, Barrington Mole and James Dowse. Barrington (band member) was kind enough to send me the EP to feature and let me tell you. I was not disappointed. I can easily say that Cling 2 me is my favourite from the EP. The whole thing has such a feel good vibe to it. It's the sort of record that you can easily listen to whilst doing coursework or other things. I love the whole sound to this EP. It sounds classic-if you can describe it as classic. You can tell that they're not trying too hard to be just like other artists. They're original and I like it. Ordinary- This is one of those songs that makes me feel like a badass bitch! It can most definitely be used for a sound track. Not to mention that the song is incredibly catchy. I love it! Cling 2 Me- It has such an Arctic Monkeys vibe to ...

Something that I've noticed whenever I'm looking at comments on beauty guru's pages is that people always ask for them to share their brush-washing routine. Sooo I thought that I'd share mine. It may be helpful, it may not be. The main product that I use to wash my brushes is face wash. It doesn't matter how cheap or expensive it is, because it's not going to make you break out or anything. I like to use the ones that don't quite work on my skin, so I'm not really spending any money. I also use a brush egg that I found on Ebay for 99p. Bargain! It helps the process so much!   I tend to clean my brushes in the evening and leave them to dry over night. I would definitely not recommend blow drying your brushes as the brushes are only plastic and they will burn. It's not worth ruining your brushes over. So at first I wet the brushes with warm water, dip it in some face wash then clean the brushes in a circular motion against the brush egg. Then rin...

A couple of months ago I entered one of Miss Sporty's competitions to win a few of their bits-and I won. I was very pleased with how the products arrived, and more importantly,the products themselves. They sent me a foundation, a BB cream,an eyeshadow, a lipstick,a liquid lipstick, a blusher and two nail polishes.Firstly,the foundation was completely the wrong shade so I gave it to a friend which is why it's not featured in this post. The BB cream that I received was Morning Baby  in shade 001 nude radiance. I've tried wearing this on its own and I don't feel that it works quite as well as the Garnier  one.But then again, Miss Sporty  is a cheaper brand. The product is rather liquidy,but it works perfectly as a primer.  The eyeshadow that I received was a studio mono  eyeshadow in shade 108 romance.  The shade is rather light,but it works perfectly for when you're trying to put some eyeshadow on the top of your lids to make it blend properly and if you're g...
