Cruelty free band wagon

 

Ok what I have been using:

My obsession with hair is bad so I started using

  but I have used   and I also use  

Natural hair colouring I have just started using Lush‘s Caca Marron yes the name means poo or feaces 

For my face and body

    

I really love Radox  body wash and their  

For makeup I use

I got recommended this by a few people especially my partner’s sister and read reviews etc.

But this is a slow progression as I have to still use products that are not cruelty due to not wanting to waste them.

Stuff  I am want:

I am keen to try Lush’s serum called Full of Grace

and 

If I want a total hair colour change I will be trying DE LORENZO  and their Nova Fusion Colour Care Shampoo.

 or  

for summer or hot weather is other season as Australia season are kind of all over the place

With mascara and other bits I’ll change between Australis,  Face of  Australia, BYS, Mode Cosmetics

I hate when animals are harmed to test beauty items. I wish I could go vegan but It wouldn’t be wise for my healthy to lack meat, fish and poultry.

Valentine

Till I meet my partner I never got given anything by anyone on Valentine’s Day. For those who are single or love spreading cheer. Here’s some ideas:

Send flowers to a family member

Hangout with friends 

Write a letter (but not to an ex)

A family member, friend etc anyone who has made a impact on your life and that you care about it does  not have to be romantic love

Treat yourself 

Send your pet a Valentine

Prep for the Future

(for my single friends)

Don’t be down if you haven’t got  someone to spent Valentine’s Day with. Just enjoy being social and learning to love who you are before you find someone else you can love too. Go on dates  or even ask someone out yourself. You never know till you put yourself out there.

(f0r my friends in relationships)

Do not make this the only day you pay attention and money on your significant other. Little things everyday such as compliment, gestures of love, spending time together and enjoy one others company. Its not all money based to shows someone you love that you love them.

Give back to the community

Donate to a charity of your liking

Please read the true meaning of Valentine’s Day

My Favourite Flower

The Orchid 

Botanical Name:

Cymbidium, Dendrobium (Singapore), Oncidium and Vanda

The orchid family is truly immense, with an estimated 25,000 to 30,000 species and over 100,000 varieties bred by horticulturalists. It is estimated that a further 800 new species are added each year. Orchids occur in every habitat on the planet, except for Antarctica and true deserts. 

With the possible exception of the rose, no other flower inspires such wonder or passion as the orchid. Orchids are relatively promiscuous, which means they inter-breed quite easily and explains the 100,000 or so hybrids we have today. Despite this huge variety there are only a handful of orchid types used in floristry – mostly Cymbidium, Dendrobium (Singapores) and Oncidium hybrids. 

Cymbidium: Sold as stems with several flowers (usually 3 to 15) per stem or as individual flowers. Flowers are large, up to 10 cm, and have 5 large waxy petals surrounding inner sepals that are often brightly coloured. The colour range is enormous: white, green, yellow-green, cream, yellow, brown, pink, and red (and there may be markings of other colour shades at the same time, every colour except blue and black. There are hundreds of varieties and colour combinations available. They make fantastic pot-plants (see Orchids- Pots). Flowers are long-lasting and normally appear in winter. In Australia they are grown mainly in Queensland and the Northern Territory, and many are imported from Malaysia and Indonesia. 

Dendrobium: With over 1200 species, this is a large genus with many native Australian species. Flowers are much smaller and delicate than Cymbidium, and form sprays of up to 50 flowers per branch. Stems are short, typically 20 to 40 cm. The most popular Dendrobium is called the Singapore orchid, which typically has a dozen or so delicate flowers per stem in white, purple, pink, green, red or yellow. All are imported. 

Oncidium: Usually found only in dark yellow with brown spots. Each stem has several branches each containing 10 to 20 open flowers or buds. Flowers are small (2 – 3 cm) and delicate. All Oncidiums are imported from Asia. 

Types: Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium 

Common Names:  Cymbids, Golden Shower (Oncidium), Singapore orchids

Stem Length:  20 to 80 cm

Country Of Origin:  Cymbidiums: Tropical Asia and Central America; Dendrobiums: Tropical Asia, Australia; Oncidiums: Tropical America

Available Colours:  Blue, Brown, Cream, Green, Pink, Purple, Red, White, Yellow

Charlie…Dianna Argon?

Born in Savannah, Georgia

Tim Burton fan

PETA supporter

Likes to spend time in graveyards as she finds it peaceful, and is very interested in gloomy, death-related things

Better known as her Glee counterpart Quinn Fabray.

I definitely wasn’t cool in high school. I really wasn’t. I did belong to many of the clubs and was in leadership on yearbook and did the musical theater route, so I had friends in all areas, but I certainly did not know what to wear, did not know how to do my hair, all those things

 I think that as an artist, the more that you can do to diversify, and kind of challenge yourself, the more you grow.
