Meet Upendo :)

Hey :)
What you may not know about me, is that in summer 2011 i visited Kenya & Tanzania with a charity my secondary school founded 'The Meserani Project' (check it out.)

It truly was a life changing experience and as a result; i began to sponsor a child through her four years of secondary education.
I got my first letter from Upendo the other day and now i have a video from her, i wanted to shre this with you. It really does show how we can make a difference.

So meet Upendo....

Interview outfit! (arrgh)

Hey guys,
so i had my interview at Salford university today ahhhhh. i wanted to make sure i looked smart but not too overdressed. I opted for my new velvet leggins (Oo soft) and my snake skin effect shirt.

I also chose the doughnut look for my hair today :)
my hairs still quite short so its one of the only things i can do that looks nice but up at the same time.
the bottom pic just shows my assortment of rings, gotta love rings

So after the ordeal of finding something to wear it was off to Salford (Manchester) for my interview. To be honest it could have went a lot better and i probably not got in. But ive got to be optimistic and hope for the best. Its the uni i really want to go to so keep your fingers crossed for me :)

Good things..

So i know alot of you are intrested in fashion and makeup; wghich truthfully doesnt come natrually to me. Im not one of these people that instantly know whatsw going to look good or bad. I cartainly am not confidnet with how i look as many of you will also have insercurites as well. My biggest one, - not counting my non existent figure - was my skin. I wasnt one of the teens that was blessed with clear skin and that avoided blemishes.

I always kept a strong facial care regime in a bid to minimise the chance of me getting those dreaded black heads or spots. Believe me i tried everything i could think of, nothing seemd to work for long though.  That was until i stumbled across GOOD THINGS.

After tirelessly GTS (google/googling that shit) to find an answer, i cam across an America company 'YES TO..' that made organic skincare products free from al parabens. I thought finally i had found my answer, until i realised, it was damn hard to get hold of in the UK. Thats when i came across GOOD THINGS. They are a company that produce skin care using fruits and berries and that is also free from parabens. After all you would apply chemicals direct to your skin so why do it through your skin care regime.

I now use the GOOD THINGS products daily anything from their 'Spot that' spot stick to there Cranberry flavoured clensing wipes. my skin now is clearer, moisturised, feels good and as a bonus smells great.

Check out http://www.goodthingsbeauty.com/ for more information and here is a range of what i use.
Centre: we have the basis to my day, cranberry clensing wipes.
They are great for nuturing my face and for removing make up.
Far Right: Goji Berry and Papaya moisturiser, its smells lush.
Bottom: Dream Cream, night cream.
One thing that is not shown is my saviour the spot stick :))
