Renovation work

Are you taking on a project? Would you like to alter the layout of your new home? If so, it’s likely that you’ll need the help of builders and architects. After you’ve had structural surveys done, you should be able to determine what kind of building work you need to complete. If there are existing issues, such as damage to the walls or supporting structures, missing roof tiles or damp, make these your priority. With problems like this, the longer you leave them, the worse they get. Call in the experts and ask for some quotes. It’s also wise to ask for a rough timeframe so that you know when you can start thinking about the next steps.

Once the structure of your home is sound and you’ve addressed priority issues, think about any other changes you’d like to make. Would you prefer a large, open-plan kitchen? Do you want to knock through upstairs to make a family bathroom? Is there is a loft space calling out for conversion? If you are planning to do work, you may wish to complete it before you move in, if this is possible. If you’re not sure whether or not to take the plunge, ask your architect to show you some images and flick through some magazines. Get some ideas of what space could look like and get some quotes. Loft conversions are one of the best ways to add value to your home. If you have vacant space, an attic conversion could be an excellent long-term investment. Likewise, with a large kitchen, you may find that spending money at the beginning pays off. For most people, the kitchen is the first room they look at during a house viewing.

Have you heard or used any Fashion21 products before? I honestly don't have any idea about them not until someone mentioned it to me. I never thought that this brand has been on the market since 1985. Wow! As a self-proclaimed lipstick fanatic, (LOL) I have been searching for a local brand who sells lipstick at an affordable price and with excellent quality since it's the only make-up product I treasure. Haha! Yes, I can't live without lipstick because I was born with not so healthy lips. Even though I don't smoke, I have dark lips. I am not fond of a foundation, eye shadows, eyeliner and other makeup products, but now that I am aware of YouTube tutorials, I am starting to explore other cosmetic products. 

Regardless, I would like to introduce to you guys some of the lipstick shades of fashion 21's ALL DAY MATTE LIPSTICK (product Made in Taiwan). I could have done the review much earlier but my daughter and got sick that's why I had to wait for few days so that I could fully recover and finally did my review.
