My Beautiful Misfit

So if you're on my Twitter, you may have seen my update about my favourite fish dying. Then you may have seen my updated update about how I saved him. If you didn't, I'll fill you in.

This may sound a bit cruel, but I thought it was worth a shot as he was dying anyway and it could put him out of his misery, but I put a tiny drop of tea tree oil in the water of the hospital tank, along with the usual salt, dechlorinator and weekly cleaner and a couple of days later I noticed the swelling in his abdomen was reducing and his scales were no longer sticking out! I had treated my fish for dropsy! (That's very hard to do, by the way). I was over the moon, as expected - I mean come on, isn't he gorgeous?!

I'd spent months looking for a makeup that would match my skintone and wouldn't make me look too orange and cakey. After enduring this frustration and spending a small fortune, I finally found what I was looking for in the form of a cheap powder recommended by someone on Yahoo! Answers.

Olive Oil

So, as you can probably tell by my posting of the sugar olive oil scrub recipe, I have just discovered the wonders of olive oil.

I, like many other people, was very hesitant about putting oil on my face. I mean, I was trying to stop greasy skin, not add to it! But seriously, olive oil is one of the most amazing moisturisers I have ever found. And what's more? It's completely natural. That's right, no little nasty chemicals to attack your skin.

Sugar olive oil scrub is a simple and effective exfoliating scrub that is completely natural and has been used for centuries. As it lacks the harsh chemicals that so many cosmetics contain today, it is gentle on the skin and won't leave it too dry or feeling tight. The instant results are amazing, and you won't want to stop feeling how smooth your skin is.

GRAND OPENING!

Hello! I'm Gravity, or you can call me Gee, and this is the grand opening of my new site!

I've just posted my first ever review and I'm super excited. I got the idea to make this site whilst watching makeup gurus on YouTube a few days ago. I thought, 'I can do that...' and so A Girl Named Gravity was born.I've been working so hard on this site all day, making the layout as perfect as I could get it. ^_^

So, it's three hours before prom and I have no decent eyeliner! *panic*. I have tiny eyes, so eyeliner is a must.
I was hesitant to buy this product - I'd never used gel liner and I hadn't read any reviews, so I was like, 'do I really want to buy this and end up with a rubbish poduct and no alternative?' My instincts said yes and I bought it and wow, I'm so glad I did.
