Palette Profile: Limited Edition Too Faced Joy to the Girls

Hello Lovelies!

Welcome to my second Palette Profile post. This is a new series I'm doing on my blog so let me know what you think. For Christmas my wonderful big sister indulged my makeup obsession and gifted me Too Faced Cosmetic's Limited Edition Holiday palette Joy to the Girls. 

This book-style palette is that gorgeous turquoise-blue colour with gold spots and a magnetic closure. As with all Too Faced products, the packaging is classy and girly, a big tick in my book. The palette opens up to showcase not only fifteen beautiful shadows and a lashGASM mascara, but also three eye-maps guiding you to create looks using the shades in this set. 

 From left to right, starting from the top, the shadows are : Cookie Dough, Cheers!, Prancer, Sugar Plum, Mulberry, Snow Angel, Powdered Sugar, Too-Too, Yule Log, Chestnut, Twinkle, Joy, Spike the punch, Chimney and Coal.

Here we have Spike the Punch a pale peachy-pink with glitter, Chestnut a deep chocolate brown with gold sparkles, Powdered Sugar a very pale vanilla, Sugar Plum a dark purple with lots of sparkle and Cookie Dough a light brown comparable to Urban Decay's Naked. As with most makeup brands, the lighter shades are practically invisible on my pale skin, although they work well as highlights in eye-looks.

 

This is Chimney a stormy blue-grey, Twinkle a very true antique gold colour, Too-Too a true to name tutu pink, Mulberry a plummy-mushroom shade and Cheers! My favourite shade in the palette which is a pretty rose-gold.

I love the way these swatches look, all in a line in this picture. From the bottom we have Coal an aptly named chalky black, Joy which looks silver in this picture, but in actuality is the most gorgeous pale blue you'll ever see, Yule Log a dark brown with tonnes of gold glitter, Snow Angel another nice pale highlight shade and Prancer a pink-gold shimmer shade. 

All in all these are probably some of the highest quality shadows I've ever used and I'm absolutely in love with them. I'm looking forward to next Christmas to see what they come out with.

Apologies if the photo quality is not great, I'm still getting used to taking pictures of swatches and the like. 

Talk soon!

December Haul 2013

Hello Lovelies!

So the other week I posted a picture of all the great stuff I got for Christmas, but what I didn't show you, was all the sneaky presents that I bought for myself both before and after December 25th, so today, I bring to you my December Haul!

So I'll get right into it starting with some make up and beauty bits and bobs

Starting at the left we have the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Make-up Remover, which to be perfectly honest, I hate. I bought this on a whim, thinking that I would need a new make up remover soon with my beloved Bioderma running low, and I now regret it. It feels like trying to remove make up WITH oil, despite its oil free claims, and it doesn't feel at all clean or refreshing, just oily and warm.

Next is Katy Perry's Killer Queen perfume which I would describe as sweet and ever so slightly spicy and vanilla-y. Basically everything I love in a perfume!

In a quick trip to Lush to buy a few last Christmas bits (haul coming soon) I picked up the Honey I Washed the Kids Soap, one of Lush's classic products that I've yet to try, I'll keep you posted on what I think.

I've heard lots of good things about these Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes and I got them on deal, two packs for about 6 dollars from Priceline, so hopefully they work well.

In the small tube we have a Covergirl Lipstick Smoochies in #sweet tweet. This lipbalm smells amazing, like old school Lip Smackers, and is pretty moisturising as well as being a bargain at around four dollars.

The last few items include Maybelline's Fit Me Concealer in shade 15 Fair. I haven't tried it yet but hopefully it'll be a good replacement for my quickly dwindling Collection Concealer.

The last two things are a Napoleon Perdis Set Contour and Highlight Palette, which I'll talk about in a future post as a part of the Palette Profile Series. The second is Maybelline's Master Precise Liquid Liner which is absolutely amazing, as I said in my previous post.

Next I may have gone a little bit crazy on nail polishes...

 
Target had some great sales on make up, including nail polishes, and I bought all of these on sale.

The first two on the left are from Max Factor and are perfect Autumn shades in my eyes. The first one is 160 Raspberry Blush and the second is 135 Royal Blue and they're part of the Glossfinity range. 

The next two with the gold lids are from Loreal, the coral one is 208 So Chic Pink and the mint one is 602 Perle De Jade. These apply nicely but do chip after a couple of days, even with high quality under coats and top coats.

These Nicole by O.P.I polishes were also on sale at Target, 2 for twenty dollars which is awesome considering one usually costs that much. These apply well, and last for around a week. The red is Deeply In Love and the blue is Poised in Turquoise. 

I thought the Revlon Nail Art Chalkboard was an interesting concept, it's a matte black polish, and the white has a thinner brush, so basically your nails act as a chalkboard to draw designs on with the white polish. This one is in the colour Straight A's.

Finally the two mini polishes from Max Factor's Max Effect range are in the shades Fantasy Fire and Elegant Mauve. These cost around two dollars each, a great deal.

Next up is a few random beauty bits and bobs and accessories

This First Aid Beauty Fab Essentials Kit was an absolute steal at $13. It includes their Daily Face Cream, Face Cleanser, Gentle Body Was and Body Moisturiser. I'm excited to try these guys out, I've already tried the face moisturiser which I loved the feel of but I think it may have broken me out which sucks.

Next are accessories so the first is a set of Lady Jayne combs, basically my comb was getting a bit old and ratty. Next is a Blush Brush from Manicare's Artiste Professional line, although I can't say I'm that impressed with it. There's also the Manicare Eyeshadow Blending Brush which is a decent shadow brush. Finally my new babies, the Napoleon Perdis Regal Brush Collection, I won't say anything about these brushes, except that I got them at half-price in the sales, I have a post coming on them soon!

Finally there's just a few other random things I picked up throughout the month

Me and my boyfriend Matt are absolutely addicted to Friends so I picked up the box set for us to watch through.

Next up I got these funky socks from Myer, they're from the brand Pulp Kitchen. I also picked up this really pretty coin necklace from Tree of Life, I'm in love with it and it makes me sound like a fairy because it jingles whenever I move. 

Finally, my favourite new purchase is this gorgeous brown leather and antique gold Mimco purse. It was a splurge, but I've been working so much that I thought I deserved a little treat and forked out for this gorgeous purse, that is exactly the right size to fit all the necessities. I love it so much.

That's it from me and this post. Sorry if it seems a little rushed, I just watched The Conjuring with my brothers and I'm positive one of them is going to pop out and scare me any second now. Let me know if you enjoy these monthly hauls, I know I do! I hope you're having a perfect start to 2014 and I'll talk to you really soon.

Georgia Lee's 2013 Beauty Awards

Happy New Year Everyone!

Today I bring to you my favourite products of 2013 from a bunch of categories. This post promises to be a long one so let's get straight into it!

Best Hair Care

Favourite Shampoo and Conditioner

This one goes to Pantene Pro-V Classic Clean Shampoo & Conditioner. I've used this combo for years on and off and it has always worked well for my thick frizzy hair. It leaves my hair feeling smooth for days after it has been washed, and has a pleasant, if a little generic, fragrance.

Favourite Dry Shampoo

Despite the completely trashy name Girlz Only Haircare Dry Shampoo  in the fragrance "Party Nights" is great both as a quick maintenance between washes and to add volume to flat hair. Add the fact that it has a really yummy scent and it costs around $2 a can and you have a winner in my books


Best Make up

Favourite Foundation

Though I don't wear foundation every day, or even once a week, I still have a definite favourite for when I do wear it, Covergirl's Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation + in the shade "buff beige". This foundation gives great coverage but is not at all cakey and blends really nicely, as well as being at the lower end of the price spectrum for foundations in Australia.

Favourite Concealer

It could be considered cheating but I have two favourites for this category. For concealing blemishes my go-to, holy grail product is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in "Shade 1 - Fair". I bought this while I was in London in May and just to get across how much I love this concealer, I wish I'd bought 10 more tubes of it. While I love this concealer, for under my eyes, I much prefer the Rimmel London Match Perfection Concealer in the shade "040 Soft Beige. This concealer goes on creamy, blends beautifully and sets completely matte and flawless. Because it is a 2-in-1 concealer and highlighter, it brightens the under-eye area really well, hiding any dark circles left by late nights.

Favourite Mascara

If you'd asked me a couple of months ago, I, like many other beauty bloggers, would have answered Maybelline's Falsies, however for the last few months my definite favourite mascara has been Covergirl Clump Crusher and after going back and trying the falsies mascara just the other day, I can absolutely say I prefer Clump Crusher now. It delivers what it promises, clump-free lashes. After 2 coats this mascara is perfection without being spidery and fake-looking.

Favourite Eyeliner

Again for this one I have two answers, one liquid and one crayon/kohl. However, both are made by the same company, in the same range and that is Maybelline's Eye Studio with the two products being the Master Precision Liquid Eyeliner and the Master Liner 24HR Cream Pencil. I've been a long time lover of the cream pencil, ever since my fourteen year old self's slightly rocker/goth stage, now I just love it for its lasting power and added definition. The liquid liner is a new addition to my make up collection but I can already tell it lives up to its good reputation and has excellent lasting power with no smudges.

Favourite Eyeshadow

Urban Decay's Naked Palette 'nuff said.


 Favourite Powder

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder is hard to beat in eliminating shine, plus it doesn't cake. I wear the shade "003 Peach Glow".

Favourite Bronzer

I am pale. Like, we're talking translucent here, so lots of bronzers look very muddy and dirty on me. For this reason, my pick for best bronzer is in fact a blush. The Maybelline Fit Me Blush in "Light Nude" is basically a browny pink, very sheer and easily blended, making it ideal for a subtle contour on my ghostly skin.

Favourite Blush

I don't wear blush very often as I have very rosy cheeks without any help, and I can only really wear blush when I'm wearing foundation, otherwise it just disappears into my cheeks. When I do wear blush, my pick for 2013 is the NYX Powder Blush in "Peach". It's a matte blush which I tend to prefer to shimmery ones. Very pigmented, a little goes a long way and it's a bargain at $9.95.

Favourite Illuminator

Without a shadow of a doubt (see what I did there?) my favourite illuminator/highlighter is the NYX Illuminator in Narcissistic this is an absolutely gorgeous champagne highlighter with gold sheen and looks so natural and lovely dusted on cheek bones. It has quickly become an absolute favourite in my make up bag.

Favourite Lip Balm

The Neutrogena Naturals Lip Balm. I professed my love for this one in my November favourites, basically its super-moisturising and heals chapped lips quicker than anything else I've ever tried.

Favourite Lipstick/Lip Colour

This was tough as I like a lot of lipsticks but I rarely get the chance to wear most of them. For its versatility and subtlety, I chose the Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in Number 16. It's a light peachy pink that goes well with my skin tone and the formula of the Kate Moss lipsticks is undeniably fantastic. Plus they smell really good!

Favourite Brush

My absolute favourite brush is the Real Techniques Deluxe Crease Brush but I absolutely hate it for applying eyeshadow. Instead, I love this brush for applying concealer because it blends flawlessly in like, two seconds. Buy it!

Best Cleansing and Cleaning

 Favourite Shower Gel

 The smell of Palmolive Naturals Shower Gel Pink Grapefruit Splash is freaking amazing. Could legit sniff it all day. I use the stuff basically as body wash and shaving gel, it works well as both but mostly I just love it for the smell.

Favourite Makeup Remover

Y'all know Bioderma is god's gift to the world. Would never use anything else if I wasn't forced to by the sheer scarcity of this product in Australia.

Favourite Facial Cleanser

Back to things that smell incredible, we have Lush Let the Good Times Roll, a.k.a "the cleanser I want to eat with a spoon". This cleanser smells divine, is crazy moisturising and exfoliating, plus your face smells like a bakery once you've used it. 

Favourite Body Scrub

Again with the Lush we have  Aqua Mirablis. Best and easiest scrub ever. Maybe I'm just special, but I always seem to lose a lot of product with scrubs that come in a pot, in that little bits always drop onto the floor of the shower, so I find the bar form of this product very handy.

Best Moisturising Products

Favourite Face Moisturiser

This one has to go to Nivea Moisturising Fluid SPF 15 for many reasons. The first one being that it has protected my face incredibly well from the sun, for quite a few years now. Secondly, it doesn't break me out. I recently tried the First Aid Beauty moisturiser which I really loved the feel of, but I'm pretty sure it broke me out. Very faint smell and is quite water in consistency, as the name suggests.

Favourite Body Moisturiser

I guess I'm just a sucker for smells, because my favourite moisturiser the MOR Body Butter in Neroli Clemintine smells incredible. My favourite thing about this isn't its smell, but rather its super moisturising properties, and the best part? It doesn't leave you feeling oily or greasy.

Favourite Hand Cream

I think it's impossible to find a hand cream that doesn't make your hands feel greasy, but this hand cream does make that feeling worth it. I only ever apply Crabtree and Evelyn's La Source Hand Cream just before bed, by the time I wake up, my hands feel so smooth and moisturised, which is a miracle for my dry hands.

Favourite Dry Skin Saviour

The Lanolips brand makes a bunch of really great products but my favourite, and the best thing for super dry patches is their Golden Ointment. Not to get too into detail, but my nose gets super dry in winter, and really flaky as well, so basically every night during the cold months I would apply this stuff to my dry patches and it was really soothing. Plus it smells like carob chocolate!

Best Nail Products

Favourite Nail Polish

I searched for months for a holographic nail polish and finally found it at Topshop in London. I love this, it's like, so nineties and futuristic and fabulous. Plus the formula of the Topshop nail polishes is really really nice.

Favourite Nail Polish Remover

Again, I searched for months for this sort of thing, it's basically a little jar with remover-soaked foam inside, and you stick your finger in and wiggle it around and it removes all your nail polish. It makes me actually want to change my nail polish colour because getting it off isn't such a drag. This one is the Instant Nail Polish Remover from Designer Brands.

Best Perfume

This Zara Perfume in Wild Orchid smells so delicious, and was really cheap as well. What more can you say about a perfume other than it smells good? Nothing, that's what.



So there you go, my favourites for 2013. It was a great year for beauty and a brilliant year in general. I hope all of you had a lovely year as well! Stay tuned for plenty for posts to come.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas, I know I did! I got to have Christmas with both my family and my boyfriend's family which was lots of fun, plus I got absolutely spoiled rotten by my family and Santa.

Sorry for the lack of posts, I was working pretty much full time pre-Christmas and getting round to taking photos and swatches does take some time.

For now I'll leave you with a photo of all my Christmas presents which hints towards some exciting posts to come. As well as this, I also bought myself some presents in the Boxing Day Sales so expect a haul or two in the near future. 

Have the most brilliant end to 2013!!

Palette Profile: Stila Portrait of a Perfect Eye Palette

Hello Lovelies,

For the 2013 Holiday Season, Stila have released their Artistry Collection, which includes a heap of different eye, cheek and lip palettes, or, for those more inclined to spend big bucks, an entire make up kit entitled the Artist's Signature Set which has a variety of products and brushes and costs $235 at Mecca Maxima here in Australia, but is valued at almost one thousand dollars.

For me, a student with limited disposable income, I opted for something a little exxy and purchased the Portrait of a Perfect eye palette, a slim compact palette which includes six fairly neutral shades, 2 matte and four shimmery shades. At $24  I consider it to be a pretty good deal, with each shade coming out at four dollars if you divide the palette up. 

The packaging is slim and compact, covered in the vintage Stila girl design, which I consider to be perhaps not the most classy or sleek design in the world, however it is passable. The case doesn't snap shut, but is rather a magnetic seal which makes me doubt how secure the palette would be in a purse or makeup bag when traveling, I think if I decide to take it anywhere I'll wrap a hair-tie around it for securities sake.

While I mightn't be the biggest fan of the packaging on the outside, I love the way the inside of this palette looks. The wood-look background with the quote on top is really sweet and I love the design of the paint brush next to the colours, it really compliments the idea of the "artistry" collection.

Direct Sunlight

The colours are: Parchment, Organza, Vintage, Linen, Antique and Rosewood. However, despite trawling various beauty blogs, I can't figure out whether those colours should read left to right or right to left, as the palette leaves it sort of ambiguous.

As for the formula of these shadows, I have to say, it's not my favourite. Don't get me wrong, the colours are beautiful, some of the prettiest I've seen, however the consistency is a little chalky and colour payoff on the lid isn't amazing. Despite this, I still love this palette, I'm being critical in analysis because I expect big things from brands that cost a little more than the drugstore, however in saying that, this palette was a bargain. 

Inside

What do you guys think of this palette, have you tried it? If not, I'd definitely go check it out and see what you think, the colours are gorgeous. I'm heading to the mall today, so I'm thinking I might pick up the blush palette from this collection! Let me know if you'd like to see a post on that. Sorry for my absence, I'm a Christmas Casual working at the mall, so life has gotten very hectic!

Talk soon

Lord of Misrule

Hello Lovelies!

Sorry for my little absence, I was away for most of the week and it's taken me a few days to get back into the swing of things. This post will just be a small one but there's more to come in the following week I promise.

The day I got back from holidays I was pretty exhausted so I decided to relax in the bath and tried out the Lord of Misrule bath ballistic from Lush. Now this is a pretty giant bath bomb, and at $5.50 it's somewhat of a bargain compared to other Lush bath ballistics of the same size. This ballistic is part of the Christmas range, and is described "Featuring Fair Trade vanilla absolute, the world’s first Fair Trade absolute, mixed with spicy black pepper oil and soothing patchouli.  Allow this ballistic to slowly dissolve in your bath to reveal a wine coloured centre.  The crown shape around the ballistic is the party hat that the tradition of the Lord of Misrule inspired centuries ago. Popping candy represents the party atmosphere that he would have created during his rule over a period of festive merriment." 

I'm not so sure about the popping candy, as mine most definitely didn't have any popping candy whatsoever, however the wine-colour is absolutely spot on, this bath went from green to a rich deep burgundy colour. The smell was sweet, and I'm not sure if it was just the colour of the bath making my mind play tricks, but I could swear this bath smelled of raspberries and other deep red berries. This bath bomb created a few bubbles, but was not foamy, with more of a froth on top rather than bubbles.The scent stayed on your skin afterwards and my mum said it also spread throughout the house. This ballistic probably isn't fantastic for you if you find strong scents overwhelming or headachey, however I really liked it and found it a nice departure from the similar smells of other Lush products. I'd definitely recommend this ballistic, as the price is reasonable and it smells delightful.

 Talk soon,

November Favourites 2013

Hello Lovelies
November has been an incredibly long month for me and has spanned everything from my last HSC exam and finishing school to formal and life with endless free time. As this is my first favourites post, there will be both my favourites for this month specifically, but also a few things that I have been loving for a while now and I know I'll continue to love in the future. So, let's get down to business! (~to defeat the hun!~)

Beauty

For my birthday in September, my boyfriend bought me some Real Techniques Brushes; The Core Collection , The Starter Set, and the Blush Brush. I'd been wanting these brushes for ages, but they're so expensive here in Australia, so I believe he found them somewhere at a much more reasonable price online. I LOVE THESE BRUSHES! Before I started using these, I had a mix-matched set of poor quality brushes that had come in different sets and kits. Since I started using the Real Techniques brushes, applying make up is so much easier. There are some brushes that I don't use a whole heap, but my favourites are: the deluxe crease brush, which is amazing for applying and blending concealer and the buffing brush, which applies foundation like a dream.

Tin from a two dollar shop

Okay, so I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I find it extremely hard to find a lip balm that I really like and can use on a daily basis. Granted, I am extremely picky, as I don't really like the feel of things on my lips, but you can trust be when I say that the Neutrogena Naturals Lip Balm is the best I've ever tried. It's extremely light on the lips, but also very smooth and has a peppermint flavour and scent. Even better is that it's not tested on animals, AND it has "no harsh chemical sulfates, parabens, petrochemicals, dyes, phthalates" so basically, it's the best lip balm ever. Definitely recommend.

Fashion

Like I said in my last post, I've been loving sandals lately, and these Lipstik Sandals are my absolute favourite, and have been for a while now. I know the Windsor Smith version of these shoes is popular, but I much prefer the look of the Lipstik ones. I purchased mine from Dotti for $50, and I can honestly say they are one of the most comfortable pair of shoes I own, they don't rub at all and you can walk around in them all day, and not have sore feet. Plus, if you're an absolute short-arse like me, they add some much needed height, without the sore feet that heels give.

Lillan Sandals - Blondie by Lipstik

 Speaking of my last post, I know I only just got these but I already know they're my favourite. These Chuck Taylor Converse All Stars are my babies, I love them so much. Like any pair of Converse, they take some breaking in, but are pretty comfortable otherwise. And for those of you, who sometimes find Converse to be a little flat, I've found the solution. Platforms are fab.

Food and Drink

So lately, Mexican food is my obsession, I literally can't get enough. My favourite place to eat aforementioned Mexican is Guzman Y Gomez. Find out if there is a store near you, because this is some seriously good Mexican. My boyfriend Matt's favourite thing to get is their Pork Chipotle Burrito, but for my vegetarian self, their Vego Burrito is amazing. I don't even know what makes it so good, but damn is it delicious. Their nachos are equally as amazing.

So while I suppose it doesn't technically count as a drink, one of my all-time favourites is my Smash Water Bottle. This baby holds 650 mLs and is so awesome. This sounds stupid, because drinking from a water bottle isn't hard, but like, this bottle makes it so easy and you get through the water pretty quickly, which is good for me because I should drink more water. Add on top the fact that it doesn't leak and it's nice and slim so it fits into bags easily, and you've basically got the perfect drink bottle.

Events

This month I had two really exciting events, the first one was going to see Beyonce! This lady is the queen of the world in my opinion, and she was nothing short of amazing. I might have been a little naughty, and gone to see her the night before my final exam, but seriously, Beyonce is an unmissable, once in a life time event and it was well worth it. Plus it meant that my biology exam was blessed with the backing track 'Love on Top'. Just look at her, she's so damn fierce and beautiful, just look at the woman!

 As I mentioned before, I finished school forever this month! That in itself is a favourite event, even though it's also really sad (it's a secret, but I actually loved school). But a super favourite event was my year 12 formal. It sounds super lame, but to be honest I've sort of dreamed about my formal since I was much younger, because really, it's one of the few times in your life you get to wear a floor-length gown and be a total diva. The formal was at this gorgeous venue, Curzon Hall, which was totally over the top, but in the best way possible. I'm not even kidding, the waiters put our napkins on our laps for us! Is that fancy or what? I have a post about my formal coming soon, with what I wore, as well as hair and make up and the like, but here's a little sneak peak.

Entertainment/Random Favourites

So this month I've had a lot of free time on my hands, which means I've been finding lots of entertaining things to fill my days with. The first of these was an absolute bargain that I picked up at a local market, the first three seasons of 'Friends' for six dollars each, such a steal! Me and my boyfriend have just started watching the first season and oh lordy, it's so good. The slightly inappropriate humour, the 90s fashion and oh the hair! 

Just look at that hair, so fierce.

 
So, for my birthday my friends all pooled their money to buy me a 3DS XL, which yes, is a little nerdy, but there you go, I totally love it. Matt, my boyfriend bought me Animal Crossing: New Leaf, which I'm now borderline obsessed with, I play every day. I'd played previous Animal Crossing games on various Nintendo Consoles, but this one is probably my favourite, I just love dressing up my character and decorating my house, as well as all the awesome real-time seasonal events.

Look at my cute little house!

Next up has to be my new favourite magazine, Elle Australia. The Australian branch of this fashion magazine only just launched, we're up to issue three, and this is honestly one of the best magazines I've read. It strikes just the right balance between a trashy mag and a gorgeous glossy, being sophisticated without being intimidating and too high fashion. It's perfectly accessible. I'm going to ask Santa for a subscription to this one!

One of my ultimate favourites for a while has been the Good Job Brain podcast, a self-proclaimed "offbeat trivia podcast". It's so bloody good! Each week they have a sort of topic or theme, and the four hosts Karen, Colin, Dana and Chris do some research and create a really interesting podcast that includes fun facts, quizzes and a butt-load of laughs. Check it out, you won't regret it I promise! 

My final favourite is an app that I have been using pretty much every day since it launched and this app is the Covet Fashion app. It's basically a sort of fashion game, that features real clothing in a virtual store. Essentially there are challenges, such as the recent Black Friday Shopping or Thanksgiving Dinner, and you have to create an outfit that suits the occasion and other Covet users vote on your look, if your score is high enough you win exclusive (in game) fashion items. It's hard to explain, but if you're a fashion lover, get this app, it's completely free!

I hope you all had an absolutely awesome month, just like I did. I'm actually away on holidays at the moment, just a short trip with friends, but perhaps I'll post some photos of the trip once I get home. 

Talk soon
