Currently reading: Through Thick and Thin by Gok Wan (I was reading it when I drafted this list, but have completed it now). It’s an honest autobiography written in pure Auntie Gok style.

Happy Hump Day, my lovelies!

I like to do an Ask Me Anything segment once every couple of months, so here it is again. If you have any questions about anything, beauty or blogging related, feel free to shoot me a few Qs. If you feel like a chat, come in for a virtual cuppa and I’ll have one with you. It’s your call.

Did you stumble upon anything new and awesome lately? Are you facing some blogging issues you can’t seem to work around? Did you suddenly find yourself a 40% discount holder for Priceline and need to share that fabulous find with someone else? (You and me. We are going to be best of friends). Need to find out that shade of lipstick you saw in a picture but have no idea what it is? Share with us!

If the questions are blogging related, they will help me tremendously in writing my Bloggie Wednesdays posts.

When the new Estee Lauder Pure Color Blush in Blushing Nude Satin landed on my desk for review, I was very pleasantly surprised as the shade was so incredibly similar to that first blush I had.
