A girl could get used to this…

    It’s been lovely to do a bit of pampering this week in preparation for my holiday, well ok a leg wax is not considered pampering by most people, but it wasn’t anywhere near as bad as some make it out to be, in fact I quite enjoyed it. The girl was very friendly and chatty, I didn’t mind stripping down to my knickers for a complete stranger, something I would NEVER have done pre-op! She was very good, very thorough, made sure she didn’t miss a single hair, and had a great touch. A gentle massage afterwards with aloe vera gel certainly counts as pampering, and the waxing itself really wasn’t a problem. I think it’s preferable to the epilator, and it looks and feels better with fewer dots and bumps. I made sure to get some free advice on various body-care issues while I was there too! Really quite an enjoyable session, I may go again.

    My nail colour is still perfectly intact after 2 days, I’m amazed, and getting used to my long nails now. Very vampish really, I should be going out for Halloween , but I’m not, too busy packing…

    If I can pack my case and get all the way to Jamaica without damaging my nails I will be a happy girl, but I’ll be taking some varnish for touch-ups, just in case. Gillian just happens to have some in my colour that is the same brand as they used in the nail bar, it’s called OPI, seems to be pretty good stuff!

    Not much pampering left to do now. Will paint my toenails tonight, tomorrow do a bit of buffing and moisturising, gotta look my best for the beach. But first I must go cook, and try not to eat too much, hopefully swimming in the sea every day will work off a bit of this podgy tummy.

    I’m so looking forward to some warm weather, even if it is humid and thundery, which is quite likely this time of year. Anything is better than cold, wet, and more cold.

    Well, bye for now girls, see you when I’ve travelled half way round the world and back.
