A Benefit pamper!


Hello my Lovelies!

Ever girl loves to be pampered right? Especially when it consists of makeovers done by a well-known brand!

On Wedensday, after handing in my final assignment (hooray!) me and Emily decided to treat ourselves.

At the Benefit stand in Debenham's (Nottingham) a 'makeover' party was being held by the members of staff.

The deal was that for £5, you would get a free makeover and a goodiebag at the end.

Well, it was absolutely brilliant! A typical girly pamper session - including some wine (well, you know what I'm like!)

We all ended up doing make overs on each other, which was brilliant as we all got to learn new make up tips! Yay!

So, what was in the goodie bag you ask? All I can say is that we were spoilt rotten - with free testers of the flawless foundation (a decent size too!), bad gal mascara, porefessional, the triple action moisteriser - plus 10 testers of the latest perfumes in a 'Marc Jacob' carrier bag.

The best part is that we also got the £5 refunded, in the form of a gift voucher so technically, we received everything FOR FREE!

Do I recommend this? Yes I do! It's fun, you learn new tricks and is definitely value for your money. Apparently, most stores hold regular 'parties' so inquire at your latest store for details.

How are you guys? Pictures of the event can be found below!

Competition time!


Hello my Beauties!

Today is finally here - the very first competition for The Original Blonde Journalist!

In this competition, you get the chance to get your hands on a Girlie Goodie bag!


The Prize!

So what does the bag contain? Well! Each of the items in the picture is something I would wear or LOVE! Firstly, are the 'Juicy' style earrings - I am a HUGE fan of Juicy Couture! and these earrings are so cute!

Next, we have the Essie Nail Polish in the shade flawless. A baby pink colour, this shade is one of my favourite and can be worn everyday or glitzed up for a night effect!

Pictured on the bag, is a necklace. The necklace has a fox/wolf pendant that appears to be looking at the pearl 'moon'. I really thought this was exceptionally cute! and would be perfect with a floral dress.

Last but not least, a jewellery piece that I know a quite few people have been wearing - the golden cross ring. A key piece for all the fashionistas out there!

All of these goodies are to come in this exceptionally cute red polka-dot satchel. Small in size, this would be perfect for packing a few essentials and going for a stroll in the park (or a field, for us country gals!)

How do I enter?

All you have to do is like The Original Blonde Journalist Facebook page, which can be found here and share the status about the competition! It's that simple!

The competition will be closing 8:00pm on the 12th May - which gives you a whole week!

Happy Bank Holiday Everyone!
