I got a job!

Hello my lovelies!

I know it's been what seems like forever but I hate when boggers/youtubers apologise for their absense so that is not what I'm doing.

I have a few reasons but honesly one of the is that I haven't felt that inspired to write about anything beauty related. Which is why I hope you don't mind but I think I'm going to start posting more 'lifestyle' type posts with a few reviews, ootd's and that sort of thing thrown in here and there.

For my first post 'lifestyle' post I want to share something that has happened that is huge to me.

I got a job!
I have never had a 'real' job before would you believe? I have been babysitting and child minding since I was probably a child myself but I've never had a job that is official so it's all very grown up of me!
I finished college in May and was kinda freaking out, what next? was all I could ask myself.
I decided I would give myself till after my holidays to start looking for a job or to decide what I wanted to do. Well the week before I went away I had a surge of enthusiasm and started applying for jobs. I went around Dundrum handing in CV's and applied to about a gazillion online(more like 20 ish) I had two interviews before my holiday and one after. I was offered one on the spot but the work was really casual and they were hinting that I should cancel my holiday that I was going on in 3 days time(not a chance!).
Well with 4 trial days under my belt I was offered a job in the most amazing salon, the girls who I work with are so unbelievably nice and are helping me so much adjust into the way the salon works and teaching my loads so I am so grateful for that.
I'm always tired after work but I'm always looking forward to going in so I think it balances out in the end.

That's all I really wanted to share for today but I have review coming up and will try and do one on my holiday if I can get anything together as it was a crazy mash of fun!

Until next time,

Qualified to Beautify People!

BAD BLOGGER! I know it's been 6 days since my last post but even longer since a proper post but the time just crept up! sozzy!

In some great news, I passed ALL of my college exams! 

So what does this mean? Well it means I'm a qualified beauty therapist! I was so worried I was going to fail 2 of my exams as in I was convinced I would have to repeat my Indian Head Massage theory paper as well as my Body Therapy theory paper. The pass rate is 60% for every exam which is pretty high in my opnion especially well my Indian Head theory paper only had about 20 or 30 questions I think!

So what exactly am I qualified in?

I got my:

CIBTAC Aesthetic Diploma which is:

-Manual Skin Treatments

-Electrical Skin Treatments

-Eyelash & Eyebrow Tinting

-Eyebrow Shaping

-Makeup

-Manicure & Pedicure

-Waxing Treatments

CIBTAC Body Therapy Diploma which is:

-Body Electrical Treatments

-Anatomy & Physiology 

-Body Massage

ITEC Indian Head Massage Diploma which is:

-Anatomy & Physiology

-Indian Head Massage

-Professional Conduct & Business Awareness 

I also did get qualified in SunFX Spray tan and Phorest Memento 6 which is basically a computer programme most salon's use in receptions.

I'm over the moon and just still in shock that I have these qualifications, I was very close to dropping out of Secondary School(I passed all of my Leaving Certificate exams in 2011) and then close again to dropping out of College so to think i've come this far is just proof to myself that I'm a capable person once I set my mind to it!

If anyone has any questions about beauty college, qualifications or anything in that line just drop me a comment below!

Until next time, I hope you're all well and I'll to you soon,
