Nat's natter 2!

Time for another nattering session I think! To start with I went and brought something from the Wet n Wild line that I mentioned to you all in the last natter.I got one of the four stripes Bronzers.This is called Mega Glo illuminating Bronzing powder in Starlight Bronze.It was the only Bronzer shade they had in the selection in my Tesco but you may find more in your branch but saying that my Tesco is a very large store so this selection may be it.I am new really to Bronzers, I do have a FCUK one but I only use it occasionally.I also don't use them in the proper way really,I use them mostly just the same as a blusher.I tend to be wary of them as I don't want too much of an orange look! I am pale skinned and use tinted moisturiser and translucent powder and although they are not too bad it still does give a certain amount of colour so I think it may be alittle too "caked" for me with Bronzer all over.I like this one and the FCUK one but I do find them both a touch too shimmery and I would prefer a more matte version.This Wet n Wild one has four different shades that go up in intensity,they are nice separately but I think it's a better effect swirling the brush around them all and using that way.I may do a video or post some swatches to show you all.


Carrying on with the beauty theme I have used the nails inc nail polish in Victoria that I got free with Glamour magazine.I have come to the conclusion that I prefer it for my toes.It tends to look alittle too patchy even with two coats and also with a top coat it chipped straight away!Therefore I will not be purchasing duplicate copies of Glamour for more as I don't think it's worth getting more,for the money you are saving compared to buying it from nails inc it's worth it but for the quality I don't feel it is.I could just as easily go and purchase a £1 something polish to get the same results.It just goes to show that sometimes higher price tags and brand names don't always equal quality! (This is just my opinion,some of you may find nails inc polishes wonderful for you and that's great but with my experience with this one and another I have i'm afraid I don't)


I have been getting into watching Blog tv over the past few days,saying that I have only watched one person,juicytuesday.I love her youtube channel so decided to check out her blog tv shows and really enjoy them.I don't think I would be brave enough to do a blog tv show,I don't think many people would want to talk to little old me anyway.Also I would have to get the webcam sorted with sound! I don't have sound sorted as I just use it mainly for photos of things where I need to show the colours better of things as the digital camera I use for videos doesn't do close up shots very well! I am trying to incorporate it into eyeshadow tutorials too because of the fact that the digital camera just doesn't cut it in terms of close up focusing and shadow colours.Lighting is also terrible even with the webcam as the days are so dull at the moment that the natural light is not enough and with lamps etc it is too much.The digital camera I use is not a cheapy either but it just doesn't seem to be suitable for the tutorials,oh well I am sticking with it anyway! Also I am trying to work a setup that allows me to do my eyeshadow tutorials hands free,not trying to wrestle with the camera in one hand brush in the other etc... so I have been playing with various things on the computer desk stacked up etc.. to try and get the camera close up to my eye and still show the detail and leave me with my hands free to actually do the thing! It has been fun and games,I am getting closer to coming up with a soloution but not quite there yet.If not the many other great gurus that do tutorials will have to struggle on with out my contributions ( I think they will manage somehow!)


Talking of tutorials I must get the crafting ones done.I am thinking about doing a baby girl card as my most watched video is a baby boy card tutorial at 850ish views so hopefully it will go down well.Also I may do a Christmas tree decoration.I made one to send to natneagle (Absolutely fantastic guru that you have to subscribe to,first person I really watched on youtube) so I may show you how to make those soon.Need to get back into my crafting full stop.I am working on a project at the minute involving bead work.I got a book on it and had some seed beads in my craft/sewing collection so have started to get into that so that's my new thing at the moment.I tend to have phases where I do alot of one particular thing then move onto the next.Some months it's cross stitch then knitting babies booties and then the next month it may be making lots of cards up.I have some cards all ready to go,packaged,priced etc..as I want to start to try and sell them more,hopefully some on here too (let me know if you are interested,I welcome all orders lol !)

Trying to think of blog ideas too,so anything you would like to see please let me know.I will have the answers from my "Get to know me" video on here in the next few days,there is not too many questions but still some good ones in there.Also nail polish of the month and probably another in's and out's list and of course more general good old nattering!!!!
