My Week In Pictures #8

I'm finding it a little odd that this is my 8th instalment of MWIP. I originally thought that I wouldn't keep it up because I didn't think that anyone would be interested in reading this kind of post from me, but they're becoming among the most read posts that I publish so here we are 8th time around for another break down of what I did this week!

This week I finished my course of injections for my vitamin deficiency, and while I'm not doing back flips and feel amazing, I've felt a little improvement in my energy levels, which is fantastic! So I've done a little more this week than I've been doing and it felt great to be out and about again! Only downside is that even though I've been out a little more than usual - I forgot to take photos of most things so I only have a few to share this week.

Top Row L-R: Out for a walk on a frosty morning, Ice in tractor tyre marks, Breakfast with Dad.
Middle: The lunch that turned into evening drinks with my friend Jacinta.
Bottom L-R: Warm chocolate cake and cream, A surprisingly yummy weight watchers microwave Chop Suey meal, Things I've bought this week - Real Techniques Kabuki brush, Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water, L'oreal Eye Make up Remover & Inecto Coconut Body Scrub.

So really I've posted a MWIP that's mostly photos of food - I need to remember to take more photos of things other than what I'm eating! 

I did pick up a few bargains this week though. I'm obsessed with skincare lately and went into the best chemist in the world Cara Pharmacy, they're a chain of chemists here in Ireland - not sure if other countries have them or not.

 I went in to get some more of L'oreal's Micellar Solution I swear by it and have been using it religiously for six months or so now, I was about to pick it up off the shelf but spotted Garnier's version of it, I'm presuming it's new I've never seen it. The pricing was so weird though! The L'oreal Micellar was €4.10 for 200ml and the Garnier one was €4.09 for 400ml! I go through this stuff really quickly so I thought that I'd try the Garnier one instead! I also spotted L'oreal's Gentle Eye Make Up Remover for €2.95! Bargain!

I ordered a Real Techniques Kabuki brush last week from My Pretty Face Place, they are based it the US but I was so surprised at how fast this got here - it didn't even take a week! They sell RT bushes, eco tools and more for a lot cheaper than other places and shipping is really reasonable too. It worked out cheaper for me to buy from them with shipping included than buying from a site that is literally based 2 towns over from me - crazy! So I ordered one of the Limited edition Duo Fibre sets from RT from them too, but I'm still waiting for that to get here.

That's about it for what I did this week! In other news, I started to take part in the Sunday Social last week, which was fun to do and I'll be taking part again this week. That post will have gone up today before this one so if you want to check it out you can do here, also let me know if you like my Sunday Social posts or not, I know some people like those kinds of blog posts and others don't so I'd like to know what you think. 

Also I'm really active over on Twitter these days and thought I'd mention it in case anyone wants to get in touch with me you can get a quicker response from me there, so you can click here for that! You can still get in touch with me all the usual ways too, I'm always happy to hear from you all! 

So I'm now off to get into the last season of Breaking Bad and relax for the rest of my Sunday! What have you gotten up to this week? : )

My Week In Pictures #7: Still Poorly, New Blog Design, Hitting 100 Followers On Bloglovin'!

Top row L-R: New phone cover, Odd snapchat faces!, Cute Pug cushion.
 Middle: New Blog Design!
 Bottom Row L-R: Cutest Cafe in the world, Reading Twilight again, What I bought this week.

I've had a pretty boring week again this week, on account of still being ill! I'm ill from vitamin injections I'm getting to fix why I'm ill in the first place!I've had a break from them over the weekend which has been nice but I'm starting my last week of them tomorrow, so the relief is sadly short lived! They make me sick to my stomach and dizzy and headachy, but it'll eventually fix me being exhausted and sick 24/7 so I can handle it! Moral of the story - it seems I have to be sicker first before I can feel better!

Aside from doctors visits and being sick, My lovely daddy brought me for breakfast one of the mornings after I had one of my injections because he knew I was feeling crappy. We went to a little cafe that's always been there as long as I can remember, but I'd never been in! It's the cutest little place ever! And the food was great too!

I also ventured into town one day and had a look around the shops. I picked up a couple of things, This coconut glossing spray I randomly found in one of the local chemists. It was under €5, so thought I'd give it a go - and I love it so much! I'll be posting about it soon! I also picked up Nivea's Express Hydration Primer for €4 instead of the usual €8 I always see it for. I've wanted to try it for ages! I've used it a couple of times and it's ok, haven't used it enough to form a proper opinion yet!

I also started reading the Twilight Saga again, for what must be the millionth time by now? I never get tired of these books and I needed a hit of lovey doveyness! I've also been playing The Sims way too much this week, and also have been abusing Snapchat to annoy my friends by sending as many snaps of myself pulling as many odd faces as I can - I've had to amuse myself somehow! ha ha! 

I also put my downtime to some good use too, and I updated the design of my blog! It had been pissing me off for the longest time, and I'm delighted with it now! It's made the quality of photos on my old posts dodgy though, so if anyone has any solution to this please let me know! 

Also in other blogging news - I hit 100 followers on bloglovin' this week and it's still going up! I've also had a jump in GFC and Twitter followers too! 

It's so amazing and has me so awe struck really at how much support I'm getting and it just seems crazy to me! So thank you everyone who has followed me in any of the places I have mentioned. It makes me really happy to see that people are interested in reading my little blog!

 I'm planning a giveaway to celebrate! I may wait until I hit 100 followers on GFC to make the giveaway go live though, which I'm not too far away from! It'd be a real celebration then but - we'll see! It's going to be a good one though! ;)

Also I'm super excited to be taking part in The Secret Valentine's set up by Laura from Tease Flutter Pout and Victoria from Vickie Blogs. Basically a bunch of bloggers are involved and we have each been given somebody to buy for! The swap is obviously Valentine's themed and it's secret!  I have been assigned my person and I'm really looking forward to putting a box together for her - and I'm also looking forward to receiving a surprise myself too! It's so exciting to be part of this! Keep an eye out for posts in the near future if you're interested! 

So that's my week summed up! What did you all get up to this week?
