They Call Me Cait: June 2015

Hey peoples!

Today I thought I'd give you a quick update as it's been a while (sorry).

About three weeks ago, I did something I have always wanted to do... That my friends, if you can't tell by the title of this post was get my first ever non-ear piercing! Now this wasn't just any old piercing... It was in fact the terrifying navel/bellybutton piercing!

I have always been scared of needles but having spent months pinning beautiful bellybutton piercings to my "Piercings" Pinterest board, I decided to take the plunge. I found a reliable piercer and on one Saturday afternoon I head off with the mother to get it done.

I was so nervous pre piercing... I didn't know what was ahead of me. I was told by some friends and family that it would be very painful and therefore not worth it. To my surprise, it was the complete opposite! It was done in the blink of an eye and was virtually painless! The piercer was so kind and professional, she really helped calm my nerves.

I am over the moon with my new piercing... The only downside to it is the constant care it needs. It is vital for me to clean it twice a day, morning and night with piercing after care oil and q-tips in order to prevent infection. Despite all this, I am extremely happy with the result. I have never felt more confident wearing crop tops in my life!

À tout à l'heure, Katie x

Hello and welcome!

So the first week of my summer holidays has been pretty uneventful. I've been rather bored and this has lead me to make the decision to give something new a go... Today I'm going do a review of my all time favourite lipstick which happens to be from Rimmel's Kate Moss range in the shade 107. I have absolutely no idea how this is going to go but sure as they say in my house... "It's all trial and error!"

I generally don't tend to wear red lipstick as I am not a big fan of the "upkeep" however, I absolutely love this lipstick for a number of reasons.

Firstly: The packaging... For a drugstore lipstick, I think it looks amazing! The vibrant red of the tube with the glossy black of Kate's signature is so simple but so elegant, it almost reminds me of the Viva Glam Rihanna range by Mac.

Secondly: The scent! Oh my word from the moment I opened this lipstick, I was hooked! It has a fabulously fruity, watermelon/cherry sent I fell in love with from the very moment I took the plastic off. I loved how the scent remained on my lips for the duration of the night and I guarantee you will too!

Thirdly: The colour and texture... This lipstick has a beautiful creamy texture that glides onto your lips. It is a matte lipstick, however, in my opinion it definitely does not feel like one. Generally mattes can be drying on the lips and require a balm underneath but this to me does not... I found this lipstick to be extremely easy to wear. The colour to me is basically the same on your lips as it is in the tube. One quick glide across your lips for instant colour... A beautiful dark red/plum that goes with basically any skin tone and can be easily taken from day to night. I absolutely love how this lipstick seamlessly fades to a raspberry stain as seen in the photo below.

Last but not least: The price... This lipstick can be picked up in stores for an amazing €6.99... Considering the quality of this product, I feel this is very reasonable. Yes, there are plenty of lipsticks out there for less but believe me, none will be of this quality.

I honestly haven't got a bad word too say about this product. I have tried to find its flaws but I've come to the conclusion that it simply doesn't have any! This is a great lipstick that I thoroughly enjoy wearing and I highly recommend.

Be brave, give it a go... I guarantee you will like it!
