Sri Lanka Airlines Review

Hey guys

For me, its holiday time again! Earlier today I arrived in Sri Lanka and after a 4 hour car journey to the hotel I am pretty knackered... Right now I am sitting in the bar with a Sprite (how dare they not have coke?!) and waiting to go for dinner. So glad the hotel has free wi-fi!!! Anyway this time last year I got back from Bali and did a review of Thai Airlines and today I decided to review Sri Lankan airlines. 

We have never flown with Sri Lankan airlines before because we haven't been here before. My first thought of the actual plane was that it was old. It wasn't rickety or anything, except for turbulence which there was a lot of! The seats were quite uncomfortable and felt old...? And the remotes for the TV were the old kind. Basically, it is not the most modern airline. Thai was a lot nicer last year. 

Checking the in-flight entertainment on the website, it only listed March and April which obviously is delayed... The films were not latest releases, they were mainly world cinema and not a lot of children options (not that i'm a child, bit it was just something I noticed). The films were old films from 1960s mainly and that was disappointing. 

As far as cabin crew go, the stewardesses on the flight were really helpful and friendly. On the menu, my grandma was not able to eat anything on there so one stewardess got a meal from first class for her. I refuse to eat on planes because I hate the food and the  stewardess kept offering me stuff throughout because I wasn't eating the meals. The uniforms for stewardesses were beautiful and they could not do enough for you.

Overall, I had high expectations for this airline but it was a let down for me when I stepped onboard. According to my mum's friend who went to Sri Lanka a few months ago, his plane still had ash trays in the seats and smoking has been banned on planes since about the 1980s. 

So I am going to go enjoy my first night here and see you guys soon.

How To: Apply False Nails

Image
Hey guys Today I thought of doing a quick post today. Today I wanted to do a 'How To' post and this one is Applying False Nails. Even though it's easy, you need to do it properly so they look as natural as possible. And I'm going to tell you how I apply my false nails. You need: False Nails (you can get them cheap in supermarkets, makeup stores etc) Nail Glue (most nails come with glue, but you can buy glue at Superdrug for around £4 ( www.superdrug.co.uk ) Cuticle Pusher or cuticle stick Nail scissors (curved work best) Emery board 1) Begin by selecting the false nails that best fit your natural nail. It needs to be accurate because it will look more realistic. 2) Use a cuticle stick/pusher and gently push your cuticles back to avoid the nail sticking to it (which, will hurt if you take them off!!) If you want, you can cut the cuticles off. 3) Apply nail glue all over the natural nail. Be careful with the glue - it bonds in seconds, difficult to remove

MUA Cosmetics Review

Hey everyone Last week for my birthday, I went shopping and while I was in Superdrug and I  picked up some things from MUA (Makeup Academy). There are some products here I haven't tried, one product I have but not this particular name. I actually fell in love with this brand when it was a very small company when everything was £1! Then the company expanded which made me very happy and so I tried   these products and I have mixed reviews. The first product I am reviewing is the BB Cream. This is £4 in the MUA online store ( www.muastore.co.uk ) or in Superdrug ( www.superdrug.com ). I wanted a BB Cream because I find foundation is too heavy and is bad for your skin and I started to go off tinted moisturizer. Anyway, for the price in general is OK for the product. I bought Shade Medium last week and I think this is a bit too dark for me even though the medium and light shade are very similar. The BB Cream is easy to blend. For me, this is going to be mixed with something light
