I recently had the chance to review a mascara that promises to lengthen your eyelashes in just a few simple steps. Who could pass up on that kind of idea? Now, I’m not particularly blessed in the eyelash department as you can see in the picture. They’re not non existent, but I’ve never had someone compliment them without some sort of eye make up either. My good friend Jacqui Saxelby-Smith is the person who introduced me to the Lustre Fiber Lashes, and boy am I thankful for having this product in my make up bag now! The package arrived last week (I’ve been meaning to upload this for a whole…

Big news in the Miss Pork Pie Household!
I am super excited to be able to share with you all the news that I have taken the leap and decided to become a full-time blogger! It’s been something that I’ve wanted to do for ages, but never thought I’d achieve, at least not for a while anyway.

There are plenty of people that could and would help me but I just couldn’t expect them to have him 5 days a week for the whole 6 week period. I really struggled to pull it together last summer holidays, and even…
