Zhōngguó xīnnián kuàilè ( happy Chinese new year everyone). My friends and I decided to go to China town today and it was amazing. The lanterns were all hung up and there was a lot of dancing dragons to celebrate Chinese new year; this year it is the year of the monkey. Apparently, Many Chinese try to give birth in the year of the Monkey, as they believe that this will make their babies clever. Despite the fact it was raining (thank you Britain) it did not seem to dampen the mood. Everyone was standing in the rain, watching the dragons and it was a great atmosphere to be around. I have always wanted to go to China town around the Chinese new year period and I am glad that I did you can definitely feel the excitement. As the Men played the drums which, the dragons danced to they went into different restaurants. The dragons danced all around China town and big crowds of people followed them; this kind of made it difficult to walk around as people were blocking corners however, the little nudge here and there enabled us to get through. I also find it cool how the dragons went into different restaurants. I took my phone out too late so I was not able to take a photo. 

Me and my friends opted for the Kowloon restaurant which, was an all you can eat buffet. It was really good especially as it was only £12 and it included a  drink. However I was a bit disappointed with their selection of food to choose from; I wish there was more variety. I  Mainly wish there was prawns as that is my favourite seafood so, I was also a bit disappointed with that. Yet overall it was a good place to dine. 

I am always wanting to try something new; I was very skeptical when buying the liquid foundation as I feared that it would make my makeup look heavy. I love the effortless make up look and, I am so happy that this product displays that. It is actually my first liquid foundation, I really love this product and I have had it for a few weeks now, and i just love the results. I get a really smooth finish and no blotches , yay. However I must say I bought the wrong shade which was my fault, despite this the product works really well. I just blend it with my Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation which, I highly recommend. I find that these two products together work really well together. I have also noticed that the N07 foundation give you medium coverage however, it is very build able. If your a person who loves full coverage then sorry, but this product may not be for you. For a liquid foundation I will say that the price is really good, considering that a MAC foundation can cost you around £22. I bought the shade Mocha, and I recommend that if there is someone on the shop floor to colour match you, then you should get that help. You do not want to make the same mistake I made! (Luckily the foundation is not too light).
