GUERRILLA KNITTERS HIT THE TOWN.

 so this week we have woken up to being visited by the guerrilla knitters, or yarn stormers  or yarn bombers as they are known,
they hit seaside resorts in the dead of night undetected,even under CCTV surveillance , rumour has it that its a lone person in black others think its a group doing it.they do themes generally .
they hit broadstairs Kent in the past week with various decorations,around the sea front, we have various other small crafty pieces been done .it seems people are walking around finding other pieces in bushes,trees,on the beach,on a boat.

so have you heard about guerrilla knitters,have you seen any of there handy work ,WHO ARE THESE SECRET PEOPLE DOING THIS.it cheers you up seeing it .although the old lady is on a corner and makes you jump,apparently dog walkers have been fooled and been saying morning to her.at night in the dark a few drunks have sat and had a chat.

SO MY GLAM GURU box arrived today.
for anyone who hasn't heard of glam guru before they are a subscription box from Israel.
slightly different is that the sub is like a few new ones started in the UK in that you email them or they email you when the new box is out,you then pay by pay pal,at present not a rolling sub but they are looking into it for ease.
if you are in the UK the box including postage is £19.which considering the product is very good value for money.
you can find GLAM GURU here,http://glamguru.co.il/?page_id=3190&preview=true
if you contact them you get email response very quickly and help all the way through to  paying.
when i initially signed up.i sent then my basics like most box profiles add.they thanked me and the box is adjusted to suit.

so the July box i opened to find not the luxurious black ribboned box but a clear pink rimmed cosmetic bag.always a bonus.THE THEME FOR THE MONTH IS SUMMER OF GLAM.

so i was sent a pr sample from a beautiful world  to review ,they mainly cater for organic natural beauty products, and couldn't wait to get my hands on this .
you can find more info her on a beautiful worlds website,http://abeautifulworld.co.uk.

so here is the YAROK,feed your youth hair oil.£22.

NAISTURE collagen facial mask pack.

today i received my parcel courtesy pr sample from a beautiful world,they had contacted me and i agreed to review a couple of products for them .
so the NAISTURE  collagen mask developed by natural skin care laboratory,
the pack arrived , it costs £10.you can buy and read up here.http://abeautifulworld.co.uk/products/collagen-paper-face-masks
it contains 5 mask packs which come in separate wraps  . the mask is made of cotton,

NAISTURE  collagen facial mask.

so this products features an intense and immediate moisturising effect and good on sensitive skin.it saturates the skin from within and restores the moisture levels back again.

active ingredients include vegetable and marine collagen,raffinose,hyaluronic acid,Shea butter herb extract.jojoba oil,allantoin,panthenol,trehalose.

so the collagen elasticity and firmness is derived from carrots improves the skin strength and helps reduce signs of ageing.

plus

smooth and moisturising,contains hyaluronic acid,panthenol,Shea butter and raffinose to help achieve smoother ,silkier,softer radiant skin.

so how do you use sheet masks,
1)cleanse your face,
2)use your toner,
3)apply your sheet mask opening it up and laying it out and adjusting around your mouth and eyes,flatten down over the skin,
4)relax for 15 minutes.
5)remove mask and massage all excess lotion into face and neck until absorbed.
6)use a fresh mask 2-3 times a week. for normal skin,

so my  feelings on the product is that i do love sheet face masks at the best of times and it being made in Korea is another bonus as i feel the best ones come from Korea and japan.would i buy again and recommend ,yes i would ,there was plenty of lotion on each mask and plenty to massage in to the face and neck afterwards.these do not come with paper on one side so it is a bit fiddly unwrapping the mask but the results left my skin soft and cleaned and after 2 weeks firmer as a whole.so why not give them a try and see what you think.have you tried this brand before.
