So i have a thing about not wearing makeup. The thought of going bare faced in public is actually horrifying. No, dont worry, this isn't an annoying case where girl says "errmagahd, I am sooo ugly, tell me how pretty I am" - I'm just saying I feel much more confident wearing makeup. (and I look better!)
So now you've got the background, imagine my dilemma when I was preparing for my Three Peaks challenge the other month!
If I wear makeup on the mountain it'll end up melting off my face and onto my clothes. Panda eyes in addition to my puffy red face ain't gonna a good look.
And more importantly, there's going to be photos on each mountain and a video montage. A montage! Girl's gotta look good in a montage.

So what did I do the weekend before my hike? Only a DIY Brow Tint and Eyelash Extension! How
If you were to get this professionally done every fortnight it really can add up, but doing it myself only set me back an hour and less than £15. Everyone kept asking how I got these results and I wanted to prove just how easy it is! So here we go a cheeky DIY tutorial and review of the products I used. Enjoy!
Part 1. The easiest, the DIY brow tint.

Barefaced Confidence Part1 : A DIY Brow Tint How-To
So I've been quite quiet on the blogging front recently because I've branched into the world of HOME VIDEO - and, on a more time consuming point, VIDEO EDITING. OooOOOh.
Check out this little montage I made of me and my friends doing the Three Peaks Challenge the other weekend. Gotta love a montage.
Thanks again for all of your amazing support - we have raised almost £6,000 for Mind,the mental health charity. You are all BABES.
In other news, I really didn't realise how long it takes to edit videos, so big kudos to all the you-tube beauty bloggers out there!
This brings me to thinking about whether I should take my new video editing skills to the big Y-T. Do I want to bare my naked face and awkward humour to the world? What would I talk about other than cute cats and cronuts?
Should I do tutorials, or should I do reviews? What about a good ole fashioned LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE rant?
Soooo many questions - let me know what you think.
Do you have your own You-tube Channel? What do you like watching on Youtube? I'm alllll about the cute animal videos and also the not-so-cute - try Hippo Poops Underwater....
Any fave cute animal vids to share?!

Cos Everyone Loves A Montage.
Sorry for the silence and absence of PINK CAPITALS in your internetz feed. It's been a busy week and I've not had any time to blog - so I thought I may as well share the reasons with you!
I had a couple of blogger events, a night out with friends visiting from overseas, a trip to The Ritz and lots of training for my Three Peaks Challenge next weekend!
Clockwise from top left.

I interrupt this blogging schedule with..... my life.
Hi team! Today I'm going to be bringing you something slightly different. It's about something I'm doing next month which is really important to me and very close to my heart. I hope you don't mind the little deviation away from my normal pink capitals and exclamation marks style, it would be amazing if you could take 2 minutes to read this.
In September, I will be doing the Three Peaks challenge - an attempt to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Mount Snowdon back-to-back within 24 hours.
I would just like to emphasis how insanely hard this will be for me given that I'm going to be with a group of uni friends who are all a lot fitter and less lazy than me. (The most exercise I get is basically running from the sofa to the kitchen when I realise I forgot to set the timer for the garlic bread in the oven.)
Ive bought some hiking shoes, a rucksack - even one of those water bladders which you suck through a pipe - this is the REAL deal for me. But let's be honest, the shopping isn't the hard bit for me is it?
I've got 5 weeks to turn this butter-loving cushion that is my body into a PROTEIN MACHINE (which I imagine would look like Optimus Prime or at least the thing that all the Power Rangers morph into.) I've started walking to work more often and I'm Squat Challenging my thighs into submission.
