The winner is....

I had a crap friday but my day was made that evening, when I received not one but two blog awards from the lovely thebristolbeautyblog

I also won a super giveaway, which will get it's own post!

 I was awarded

Now I have received the Beautiful Blogger award,I'm supposed to tell you 7 secrets about me, and then pass this on to 10 other bloggers.

Here goes

1) Although I LOVE Mr Depp, I have some sort of bizarre crush on Jeremy Clarkson - I think it's down to the fact that he doesn't really care what people think. He just says what he thinks.

2) I got my first set of lego last christmas from a friend.

3) I feel a house is more of a home, when there are plenty of books in it, I would like my own library.

4) Some of my favourite scents are that new book smell, the smell you get when you have blown out a candle, that's been burning all night. Fresh bread baking.

5) I have shared drinks with two bizarre magazine   and playboy covermodels !

6) Two of my heros are Roald Dahl (his books got me not only to pick up books but to enjoy reading) and Ruth Handler ( Ruth is the woman behind barbie, showing the world that a woman can be beautiful, have a brain and be anything she puts her mind to Vet,lifeguard, pilot the list goes on ).

7) Despite having a love for shoes and heels that are 5-6inches, I have been lucky enough never to tumble and break any bones.... I hope this continues to be the case.


Firstly I would like to say a massive thank you for my awards.


Now it's my turn to give out some awards and I have decided to give all these lovely ladies the two awards. I most tell you it was very difficult to choose just 10 blogs.. but I some how managed it.

Well done ladies

Benefit - Cruelty Free ?

A few weeks ago I wrote a review on Benefit Cosmetics and after it I was left with one question. Are Benefit cruelty free ?

                                                                          Taken at Banksy Exhibit 2009.




There are various discussions/comments on one of the Benefit fanpage on facebook. However I wanted confirmation from Benefit directly. I emailed them and this is what they had say.

Not the result I was hoping for.

Until it changes, I will not be purchasing any Benefit products or using anymore products.

What do you think ?
