Well I feel like I've had quite a productive day.
I did a ton of washing up, made up my own make up removal wipes (sooo much better for my face and the environment, I hate all that disposable shit) Looked at the sewing pattern for my skirt for ages wondering what a "placket" is (if you know please tell me), went out for Sunday lunch with my man, his son and some other folks and then had my 'filthy best mate and her bloke over for tea and cake. And last but not least found some lovely pics of anenomes on t'internet so I can start planning my half sleeve.
As you can see am feeling much perkier, a good start to the week I feel, long may it continue.
Ok ladies since I seem to have piqued your interest with my home made make up removal wipes I will give you the recipe:
Take some fine unbleached muslin and cut into squares (how big is really up to you mine are about 4-5 inch square) Then fold the squares into the right size for your container of choice ( I just use tupperware). Rinse out the container with boiling water to sterilize. In a cup or jug or somesuch pour around 150ml (makes about 14 wipes ithink) of boiling water over a green tea and jasmine teabag, let stew for a couple of mins, then add 2 drops of Lavender oil ( or other depending on your skin type and fragrance preference) 4 drops of rescue remedy and a splash of sweet almond oil. Pour half of the mixture into the empty container then put in the muslin so that it absorbes from the bottom, pour the rest of the mix over the top. Let cool with the lid half off then keep in the fridge. I keep the wipes once they have been used then wash them and use them again,
