My experience on getting my belly Button pierced

This post is about getting my belly button pierced or navel pierced. I wanted to have my belly button pierced because it looks nice and i wanted to have one because there was nice belly bars i could have if i got it pierced. So i decided to have it with my friend. We planned it a month before so we know when we are doing it. However i have a big phobia off needles and injections, so this was a big thing for me because of the needle. I was really nervous on the day i was having it done. I could not eat anything because i was that nervous. I went to my local town and met with my friend at subway. Then we went to a piercing shop that we knew. You should always check that they are clean and use proper equipment to pierce the belly or else you could get nasty infections and even HIV. I knew the place i was going was clean because i went with a friend to have her lip pierced there.
I had to wait a while, which made me worse because i was so nervous of needles. Then we were aloud to go in a room behind the main bit. I went first because i wanted to get it out of the way. First of this man told me to lift up my top to show me my belly button. Then he cleaned the area, to amke sure it was all clean before piercing. Then he drawed two dots on my belly where he is going to pierce the needle through the skin. By that point i was freaking out. I had to lay on a bed thing which was high, so it was hard for me to get up because i am short :L .
Then the man put a clamp on the skin, which did hurt a bit to start, then then it stopped. Then he put numbing spray on to the area, however me and my friend said that it doesnt work. The man started putting the needle through i could feel that and then he put the bar in. To be honest it did hurt a lot, i dont know what hurt though cos it was over in three seconds. I know people say it doesnt hurt, mine did. i have a low pain threshold anyway, so that might be why it hurt more for me. Then the man put a bandage over the piercing, then i was done. It costs me 20 pounds for the piercing and the bar, so it was a good. Then the man gave me an aftercare leaflets which explains on what you have to do to look after it. It has been three days since i had it done and it hasnt got infected yet which is very good.

I will give you an update on it in a few months time, to see how it is going.
 Thanks for reading this and i hope this has helped :)

Nation collection haul

Hiya everyone, this next post will be a little haul from the natural collection range. Natural collection is a very cheap brand of make-up in boots. I know its cheap and people usually think that they are crap because its cheap. However cheap make-up products can be good as well as the expensive drugstore brands. I like natural collection because it is cheap and they do some nice products. I do own a few natural collection products like loose powder. They do eyeshadows and i never tried them out. i tried two of them and they are quite good. They are not as pigmented as mac eyeshadows but what do u expect for a cheap eyeshadow. I thought they were good.
I got two eyeshadows. One in willow and one is barley. they are single eyeshadows but i cant tell u what weight they are because it doesnt say on the package.

(By the way, sorry about the picture, my camera has broken and used my webcam which aint that good anyway, but this is just to show you what the colour is)
This one is called willow. It is a mushroom colour. i think it is light brown/silver, im not to sure. From the picture it is not white, its sort of light brown/mushroom colour. When i swatch it on my hand, it is quite nice and quite pigmented. I would wear that everyday because it is a neutral colour.

The next one is called Barley. Barley is a gold colour which is really nice. Also this is quite pigmented like the willow. Barley is a lovely gold colour which could be worn everyday.

These two eyeshadows are really nice. There are a a load more eyeshadows there and i would like to get more of them. Thanks for reading this post and there will be more posts coming up.
