Just a casual day in the office…
Smashbox Halo – their version of mineral/powder foundation. I love the packaging which contains a sort of grater so powder doesn’t explode everywhere when you open it.
Estee Lauder Disappear Concealer for my dark circles… an absolute must as it gives great coverage. My husband actually introduced me to it and how to apply it – pat it on lightly with fingers for best results.
Smashbox Bronzer… the label has worn away and there’s not a lot left, but I think it’s Fusion in ‘Sunset’ which is really nice for bronzing pale skin.
Chanel Eyeshadow – the pink and the brown from the Quadra Eyeshadow ‘Influences’.
Avon’s SuperShock Mascara in Plum… I wouldn’t say it’s a shock, but it’s definitely super. It applies very nicely and doesn’t clog.
Nars Lipstick in ‘Damage’ – perfect everyday shade

Was up late this morning so it really was a quick hair wash and out the door…
Pantene’s Breakage Defence Shampoo – I’ve only just started using this (bargain from Wilkinson’s!), so I’ve yet to decide whether it’s good or not, I think it makes my hair greasier quicker though, so yet to be convinced.
John Frieda’s Go Blonder Conditioner – this I’ve been using a while and I really like
A review to follow soon, I promise!
Then it was blow-dry and a quick straighten with my beloved ghds!

So I have been using the Bliss fatgirlslim and The Love Handler for exactly 8 weeks now.
I used the fatgirlslim on my stomach, hips, thighs and upper arms. I used The Love Handler under the fatgirlslim on just my stomach. I used both most days – twice a day for fatgirlslim and once a day for The Love Handler.
I changed nothing regarding exercise or my diet – so pretty much no exercise and eating whatever!!
Even from week 1 I was seeing improvements in skintone and after week 2 dimples on my thighs started to smooth out. After 8 weeks I’ve been very impressed, especially on my thighs which are so much smoother now. My upper arms are also much firmer-looking and again much smoother. This alone is good enoughfor me! But I was also testing whether I could lose inches too.
So to my measurements…
My measurements after 8 weeks:
Waist: 30″ (loss of 2 inches)
Widest part of stomach (eek!): 37.75″ (loss of 0.25″)
Hips: 38.5″ (loss of 0.25″)
Left thigh: 21″ (loss of 0.5″)
Right thigh: 19.75″ (loss of 1.25″)
Left upper arm: 10.75″ (no loss)
Right upper arm: 11″ (loss of 0.75″)
Well, I think that’s what we’d call success!!
