It's time to partido

Holla senioritas! I am now in Mexico, I arrived at my final destination around 1 and after scoffing down a few tacos I'm trying to get some shut eye however it's 3.36 in the morning and even though I have been to hell and back I can't seem to sleep! So I thought it would be a good idea to check in with you all. Now I think you are all going to gasp I'm horror when I tell you I didn't get anything in duty free however, I didn't have time the first 2 times and then by the third airport layover I was wayyyyy to tired and stressed to be able to think about it! However I promise I will be doing some amazing hauls as the shopping here is great and a little birdie told me there is a high chance of me getting to go to America! Which is extremely exciting for me! The down side about all this is Toms not here. As you may or may not know Tom is my lovely lovely boyfriend who sadly couldn't join me for this great adventure though I have my fingers crossed that he might be able to russle up the dosh to come see me for a bit. It hasn't been 2 days and I already miss him! I'm afraid you are all going to have to put up with the odd mone about this as I'm finding it very hard however, I will do my best to restrain from boring your brains with all my mushy nonsense! Anyway I better get some shut eye for tomorrows adventures! Thoughts and love BeanQueen

I'm on Cloud Nine


Ello Ello Ello, so for a while now i have been debating which straightener i wanted to invest in as, i had a a limited pink kiss ghd which lasted roughly three years. At first it was great! my hair was shiny and i was a happy little bean. However after about a year and a half, my hair looked more fried than fantastic and it seemed to me that the temperature varied from very hot to barely hot enough to straighten my curly whirlys. So once it got to the point where the thing hardly turned on, i binned it and went on the hunt to find a new magic wand to tame my curls. I had heard of Cloud Nine before however i was not sure if it was really for me. Anyways, as im prone to impulse buys, one dreary day at work i almost bought a GHD again, i thought it would be an exciting little buy to chear me up but my boyfriends words echoed in my head about thinking a little harder before jumping into something. so i continued to search and then a i heard zoella280390  a youtube beauty guru talking about her Cloud Nine, i did a little more research and after reading about them i was convinced it was the straightener of my dreams. I have had it for a week now and i am so chuffed! I't cost me $270 for the  iron, heat guard and a carry pouch. You get a 2 year warranty and the swivel cord helps protect the cord from breaking. The best part of this nifty little iron is the temperature control panel, it allows you to change the heat, so that your not frying your hair and you can work it to make different styles with different levels of heat. Also apparently it has a magical and mystical ingredient in the ceramic plates to make your hair fanciful and shiny. Im pretty sure like GHD, Cloud Nine is an international company and you will be able to get it all over the place. They have 3 sizes of iron, The Cloud Nine Iron the one i have recently purchased, The Cloud Nine Wide Iron which is perfect for thick, long or very tight curled hair and The Cloud Nine Mirco Iron which is good for fringes, mens hair or short hair. I found out something very interesting about this classy little company, they are the founders of GHD that ditched the company in 2006, who have reunited with the people who invented the original GHD. After years of working on these flat irons they are finally satisfied and so am i! Cheers Cloud Nine for making me feel like i have hair worthy of flouting on the clouds :) Let me know if anyone else have tried these wands and what you think of them!!!!

Hello there!

Hello and welcome to my world...!
I shall start by introducing my self, my name is Beanie also known as Bean Queen. Im 17 years old and i live with my boy friend and 2 other boys! I know, it is a struggle to find my own space and so i thought why not have a virtual one instead! In many ways i am a girly girl but i think people seem to only see the rather eccentric side of me. I have a certificate II in make up and make up services that i finished in December last year. Right now im at a very strange point in my life which most people face when there a little bit older. However i have never played by the rules and i have found myself a little lost! so naturally the first thing i do as any other sane human would, i have booked a flight to mexico to live with my father for 6 months! Im leaving my boyfriend behind in Australia while i go sort my self out! the challenging part is, i have never lived with my father and i found he was quite absent while i was growing up so this is going to be very interesting! I have decided im going to take you every step of the way! blogging and vlogging about my adventures and ups and downs!
It is Easter and I'm spending it lounging around and playing with my very own Easter bunny Sweet Dee! i have less than 20 days before i leave and I;m terrified. I just keep reminding myself of the shopping i will get to do when i get there! however the prospect of saying good bye to my friends, family and more importantly my boyfriend Tom is terrifying. Cross ya fingers for me! I'm going to need all the luck i can get!
