Lip tints are the way forward!

Lipstick, too thick. Lip gloss, too sticky. Lip tint, the perfect combination! I tried out Rimmel London's 1000 kisses in '600 carry on cherry'. It was easy to apply, and is small enough to fit in a clutch! After outlining your lips, you need to fill in the rest of your lips with the pen that just spreads and stains! After that, you should use the balm that is at the end of pen - this conditions and smoothes and feels just like a glossy over coat!

Favourite purchase

I've been seeing a lot of tie dye clothes around recently amd thought I'd purchase something to see what the fuss was about. I bought this tee shirt which when I first looked at, seemed average and not worth the money- but when I tried it on and paired it with a pair of leggings and some white converses, it became the perfect 'lazy day' outfit, it looks good, and is effortless to put together.

My favourite Halal restaurants

Have you ever wished to be able to eat the same as everyone else in the same place? Are you bored of Nandos and Jimmy Spices? Well look no further! Meat and Wine Co has a halal menu! Yes, this high end resturant has two separate menus, one halal, and one non halal. Despite it being a little pricey, the size portions are promising and the ambience is really inviting. Not only do they have an amazing Halal food menu, they have alcohol free cocktails. I've visted the Westfield London branch a few times and would definatly reccommend it to Halal food seekers. If you're looking for a place suitable for an occasion - date, gathering, birthday - I would try Meat and Wine Co, as well as Del Aziz, which is perfect if you're looking for a relaxed place to enjoy good Mediterranean food.

I hate TFL

Commuting in and around London should be quick and enjoyable, right? Wrong. My TFL experience over the weekend has made me swear never to use public transport ever again. So why do I hate it so much? Well, first things first, delays... Has there ever been a time your train wasnt delayed? Mine always seem to terminate a few stops before mine or don't run at all!

Anyway, this weekend I was travelling from Feltham to Wembley Park, a journey which should have taken 90 minutes, took me almost 2 hours and a half. I set off from Hatton Cross at 3pm, waited 20 minutes for the Piccadilly train (due to a 'trespasser' on the tracks). When I finally got on, the train was over crowded as usual.. Stayed on for a couple of stops before the train decided to terminated at Acton Town.

 At this point I'm running late for my friend's birthday party and so are the other passengers who were swearing around me. After a 15 minute wait, the next train arrived - Hallelujah. So this train was even more crowded,  I found myself in between the two rows of seats. Now I had to hold on to the yellow pole thats dripping with human bacteria and sweaty hands - with no hand sanitizer.

Anyway, I now had to decide which way to face, do I face the pervy men who were grinning at me or turn my back and give them a nice view of my arse? I faced them and put my headphones in to avoid awkwardness, and of course, the train driver with a heavy accent decided to stop the train for a '2 minute wait' LIES. It was 4 minutes.

Finally after it moved, I arrived at Green Park and met my friend on the congested platform. From there we caught the train on the Jubilee which was fine. Then we got the dirty bus to my friend's house.

So on the way back, everything was fine until my train YET again was terminated due to 'someone under the train' - its 9/10pm and I want to get home, kill yourself on your own time please. There I was, on the platform waiting for the next train, all of the passengers were men may I add - feeling slightly intimidated at this point, my boyfriend offered to pick me up from the station - PRAISE THE LORD! After a random man brushed his hand across my arse, the train arrived and finally I was back!

Note to self - Never travel alone at night. Or use TFL.

Britain's got talent?

So Britain's got talent... An entertainment show, a 'talent show' and Simon Cowell's money machine. It seems that with every year, comes more talent. And no, I'm not talking about 'dancing' dogs that parade around on stage wagging their tails.

Although it can be very entertaining, with acts like Martin Healy (the man who danced with a broom dressed as a nun), it really is the most exaggerated show on tv. Just a bunch of average people doing average things in the name of entertainment. Besides from the million dances acts, we're presented with singers that are either ashamed of their weight, fighting some illness or extremely nervous. Of course we all know that it takes real guts to get on stage in front of millions of viewers, but if they play the 'I'm really nervous' card, they'll have some excuse for messing up the song. what we're all thinking of course is, why can't the singers audition for Xfactor? The answer? Less singers to compete with.

 Onto the judges. Simon, I admire for saying what everyone is thinking. Then again, its his show, he can do whatever he pleases. Now for Amanda Holden, crocodile tears, whiny voice, crap jokes and awkward moments. Alesha Dixon = waste of camera space. David Walliams seems to be the most kind hearted of all of them, camp with a sense of humour.

 One thing that gets to me is people saying 'only British people should be allowed to audition on BRITAIN'S got talent'... Actually, anyone can audition,  its a talent show for people living in Britain, not British people.  Should we strip Mo Farah from his medals because he is Somali born?
Ant and Dec, the only reason the audience laughs... Put Amanda and Alesha in their place and expect annoying laughs, awkwards silences and awful jokes. Overall, despite the ad breaks between every other act, the over ratted dancers and annoying children... BGT is improving year by year.

Hopes for the future - remove Amanda and Alesha from judging panel.
