To thread or not to thread?

Hello!

 I'm considering getting my eyebrows and maybe my upper lip threaded but I am TERRIFIED! Can anyone offer any advice?

 My eyebrows grow in really slow and are fair especially on the outsides and I'm really not happy with the shape but as they come in so slow there's not much to play with and I really don't want skinny brows. 

 As for my tash, I've heard it's the most painful part of the face to get threaded, like having a zip closed on your lip, not very appealing! And also do you get spotty afterwards? I've had this issue with waxing my tash.

 I went with my friend when she got her eyebrows threaded and managed to get a good look at how they do it, it looked sore but it was over so quick and they looked so clean and groomed afterwards.

 This is me yesterday when I was having a good brow day, I'd used 17 'brows that!' Rather than my beloved hd brows palette, I love both but filling them in is such a chore so I might get them tinted too.

 Has anyone got any threading pearls of wisdom they can share with me?

What's on your Christmas list?

Hello all!

 I've been wracking my brains trying to think of a post lately, as it's now December (cringe!) I thought I'd make things festive.

 I'm one of those girls that's always on the want, especially when I have no money I seem to want everything I can't have, but when people ask what I want for Christmas I really struggle to choose, typical woman or what eh?! 

 So I've decided to be ruthless and just get what I really want and couldn't normally afford for myself. Me and my lovely manfriend went shopping at the weekend and took advantage of the Black Friday sales (since when did we do American Black Friday in the uk?), and after a tight budget the last couple years we've decided to blow it and he's thoroughly spoilt me and got me a coffee machine for the coffee snob in me (I used to be a barista for esquires), and an iPad mini as my laptop is on the blink

I'm super excited for these and hopefully the combination of the two will make me more organised!

 I also went shopping with my mam to middlesbrough and we had a really productive day. As well as a new diary and calendar, I got some size 12 topshop skinny jeans which I am over the moon with as they have always been a long term goal of mine on my fitness journey, and we all know how ridiculously small their fitting is! I got this gorgeous top to get me through festive outings to the pub, some new perfume that I'm obsessed with, and a green floral shirt from River Island, this is another little win for me as I never suited green when I was overweight!

 I'm getting some other bits and bobs such as Benefit They're Real eyeliner, a new scarf and some euros as I'm off to Paris in January. I usually get some surprises but I think I've been quite spoiled already so I won't be upset if I don't get any. 

 My mother in law is getting me river island vouchers as I've seen this coat which is £90, I just can't justify it but I'm hoping I can get it in the sale as it'll be gorgeous for keeping wrapped up in Paris!

 So that's me sorted! For other people I plan on being thoughtful but not going overboard, cue lots of baking, temple spa and inside jokes for my loved ones!

 And what the hell do you buy for the man who has everything please?!
