Going up…

• Liquid Foundation, specifically Chanel ProLumiere. I hadn’t worn anything but my compact or mineral foundation since my son was born as I worried applying a liquid would take too long. However, I’ve been using a small squirt of this, applying it with my fingers and blending it with my foundation brush, and I’ve been really impressed with the results.
• The sun shining all weekend. We’ve been able to do so much with the children, visiting the park, walking by the river and eating ice creams. This is what summertime is all about. I even had a glass of Pimms last night!
• Looking forward to celebrating my birthday next weekend. One of my best friends is coming down from London and my sister will also be joining us. I’m guaranteed to enjoy myself with them around!
• My daughter’s joy at receiving a wet suit and body board as a gift from my mother. She cannot wait to try them in the water, she’s been ‘surfing’ on her bed all evening!

Going down…

• Revision. One word. Boring. Plus, it takes me away from my children which is rubbish.
• The free conditioner that came with this months copy of Marie Claire. I can see why they’re giving this away… it’s rubbish. I used it on Friday and my hair felt horrible. I could hardly style it at all and it felt really greasy. The worst part has to be the smell though. It reminded me of cheap men’s deodorant. Grim.
• Being lulled into a false sense of security. The baby had slept through the night 3 times in a row. It was horrible getting up at 4.30am this morning, I felt cheated as I know he can do better!
