Shopping and a Bit of a Confession

I have to confess to something before Ronald Knox mentions it on his blog and then I will never hear the end of it. At the moment I am missing half an eyebrow. I told William and the other shinigami that Ronald did it to me when he was messing around but really I did it myself, by accident when I was reshaping my eyebrows. So now everyone knows that half of my left eyebrow has been drawn on for the last few days. Happy now Ronald????

Right so back to less irritating matters:


I dragged William shopping today! Well it wasn't really dragged it was more like I offered to buy him dinner if he accompanied me clothes shopping. (I got a shopping trip AND a date. I'm so clever!) I'm actually starting to wonder what I used to do without William. He makes a wonderful shopping bag carrier, he opens jars for me, he's handy for keeping me warm and he acts like a bodyguard. ...Even though he spent our dinner date lecturing the waitress and glaring at the small children seated near us.

Oh he even bought me a present! I now own a shirt with the word Uke print on it in rather large letters. Well...at least it will go with the "Property of William T Spears" underwear he bought me for Valentines day.

And before anyone asks here is a list of everything I bought while shopping
(Since my Grellettes like to know the tiny details of my life)

-A red floral dress.
-A vintage t-shirt saying "Love forever" on it.
-New fake eyelashes.
-New red nail polish
-New black trousers
-Red heart covered pajamas
-The Uke T-shirt (I didn't buy it but its on the list)

There you go~ that was my entire shopping list for the afternoon.

Hair and Make-up (A Requested Blog for HAPPYWISE)


I received a request from HAPPYWISE to write a blog about my hair and make-up. This is one of my favourite subjects so I couldn't resist the opportunity to fabulize you all into looking like yours truly~
(Also preventing possible make up disasters which drive me to murdering people)

So here is some make up tips from your auntie Grell~

1) Always invest in long lasting foundation. (Us shinigami run around a lot so as little make up touch ups as possible is always a good thing)

2) Conceal your dark circles. (When you wear glasses dark circles under your eyes are more noticeable.)

3) Tend to your eyebrows. (Another glasses wearing essential. Perfect eyebrows)

4) Buy an eyelash curler.

5) Expensive doesn't always make it better.

My Make Up List:

Concealer
Foundation
Face powder
Eyeliner
A light dusting of eyeshadow (it really helps if you know what goes with your eye colour)
Fake eyelashes/Mascara
Lip balm (Mine is strawberry flavoured for tasty kisses~)
Lipstick (Special occasions)
Nail polish

Wow Will's right I DO wear a lot of make up. I didn't notice until I wrote it all down.

Ok time for the Hair!

I've been asked a few times about my hair colour and before anyone even thinks about asking me again...Yes I am a Natural red head!

How I keep my hair looking its best:

1) Blow dry it, but not too much (If you over dry your hair it will go fuzzy and you will kill it with heat)

2) Conditioner!

3) Conditioning masks. (These are a god send for long hair. Just rub it in, leave for 2 minutes and rise it out)

4) Get it cut regularly (I get mine cut every 4 weeks. It keeps the ends looking wonderful and stops my shorter layers growing out)

I think that should be everything. I hope my Grellettes found this useful in someway.

Love you all~

Grell
